Springfield, Mass., Nov. 30. — Medical Examiner Mass. and Assistant Medical Examiner Chillander, in performing an autopsy on the body of a male infant, made an astounding discovery. They found in the man's abdomen five or six pounds fully formed the body of a male infant weighing with the exeption of a head. The body was in a sack, which was filled with the infant's blood and the growth had increased in size so that it pressed upon the man's internal organs, and according to physicians, distress at times. Surgeons from Western Massachusetts office to examine the growth says it is the most remarkable example of anatomical or motion of which they had ever heard. The theory which they believed to be most able as to the cause of the growth, an example of Slimane twins; in other words, an example of two fertilized where birth instead of becoming mere attached to it externally, as usual in the case of Slimane twins; in that when the child was born the other remained in the normal infant's body into a child, held back by the conditions under which it existed in the abdomen of the normal infant, into a child, held back in this body in the abdomen continued to grow in a retarded way for years, until it had grown.

Bennetvillie, S. C. Nov. 30—"The Negro Cotton King" of South Carolina, J. W. Thomas, wealthiest and prominent member of his race in Maribu county, died here on Friday night, aged 87 years. His death came unexpectedly, as he was seen on the streets of Bennetvillie on Thursday. But he had been sick for some time, and diabetes from high blood disease and had recently undergone treatment at John Hopkin hospital, Baltimore, and at Battle Creek Medical Center. Mr. Thomas was a notable figure. He owned one the largest plantations in South Carolina, and cultivated it with such success that he was crowned "cotton king" by all or South Carolina.

NEGRO SHIP HERO SAVES
SCIENTIFIC DATA.
New York, N. Y., Nov. 30—Because of the magnificent heroism of Sam Christopher, a Negro attendant on board the yacht Viking, which was burned in the habor of Port of Spain, she is also the morning of October's 11th, the rare animals are added to the Bronzeological Park. The specimens include a two-toed sloth, a parrot, and a real howling monkey.
A night monkey, an animal that never appears in the daytime, and a monkey that never appears in the daytime, these drenched to New York. Four Venezuelan turtles, a collection of insects and a four-footed elk lost in the fire.
The collection had been assembled by Prof. William Beebe and a group of Venezuelan turtles, a collection of biological Society, and they had been in South America since February. The party was in port of Spain, on board the Viking as guest of the Barber Asphalt Company, Prof. Beebe and a group of Venezuelan turtles, a collection of famous lake lakes of Trinidad, only Gilbert Broking, oriñá, but Broking was sleeping on shore, leaving Christopher as the only member of the party on board ship.

Christopher was aroused shortly after midnight by a fire in the coal bunkers, amidship. With the two men he fought the fire for an hour and hid it seemingly nearly under管制. He was not at the time, and, then, deeply dewy the natives lost their head and became useless from terror. Sam rushed to the deck and signalled to shore for help. When boats drew alongside he began the work of interlapping.
Absolutely single-handed, the coloured man made the triplin the infarno of flames and brought out, in addition to the animals already enumerated, scientific records, jungle motives, and the٢\. A convincible fact is that it is calculable value. All the spectrum and data of tropical research were left on board. In addition to Prof Beebe's personal notes, extending over a period of five years, containing a number of the most important and valuable methods which could not be replaced.
Broking made his way out to the Vfing and was a witness to the coloured attendant's heroism. With smoke pouring out of portfolios and flames rising from the deck, the stagnating wave of fire was not lost until all the war-usable properties were saved. As he left the dining a loon with the last load the deck eaved in with a crash. Christopher and Broking jumped in to a row boat and pulled out of the fire and were alone. The flaming fire was finally towed towards the jetty in hopes that the Port of Sajim fire company might be able to prevent total loss, but there was a failure of the water power and the vessel was to be restored to normal operation.

PARTMENTS.
Washington, D. C., Nov. 30—Washington is different with Congress in session. Washington is different to begin with. It is different from the big industrial and commercial cities, where there is hustle hurry and scurry. Here, Washington is different to prejudice. That is about the swiftest moving thing in town, and those who compare things now—even under Republican control with what they were twenty-two years ago under a McKinley administration, or twenty-six years ago under a democratic Cleveland administration, or twenty-eight years ago under aocratic Cleveland administration, in office and out, will be forced to admit that prejudice here has had a fine run for its money.
Race prejudice in Washington, the nation's capitol, where the very act of government is enacted, is a fine field for cynics, to say the least. The appeals to justice, equality and justice are not the dreams of the founders of the nation. It's all a huge joke in Washington, "Due Sue," as the prompts for the speech. Prejudice is so narrant here, and indifference to it by the authorities so glaring, that one is made to shoulder what the answer will be another score of years, if the old
Take Treasury Department.
There is the Treasury department, for example. There has been disbandment of the department to the effect that all Colored women must be accepted only in the registers division, and that all women would require a Colored Register of the Treasury, and if President expects to succeed himself in 1924 he would make a good political play here.
However, it has been discovered that the young woman from Boston in one of whom the scrutinizing chief had been accused of being proficient, and that has been promoted to a position pay $1,850 a year. Presto, one some found that this capable young lady is living with his wife, and that he has been called in and informed that it would be wise to be transferred to a position where he cannot see the point, and refuses to go. Congressman Tinkham of Massachusetts, who says he is going to all citizens to vote, is backching the young lady up in her refusal. The matter has been taken up directly

Washington, D. C., Nov. 30.—The Allied Industrial Finance Corporation has just sent out a dividend check covering the first quarter-year dividend of 8 percent to its preferred stock. The corporation has made remarkable progress during the past few months in which it has been actively engaged in business.
Having been organized in December 1920, with Dr. Emmett J. Scott, of Washington, D. C., as president, and with Mr. John R. Hawkins, Dr. A. M. Curtis, Mr. Whitefield McKinley and Mr. Norman L. McGhee, as fellow officers and directors, over One Hundred Thousand ($100,000) Dollars worth of the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation's stock was subscribed by July 1, 1922, at which time it started actively on its program to supply the business of the Company. In the business men and women, groups of Colored men and women, in the extension of business, the building of homes and other worthy objects.
Other prominent men who are on the Board of Directors of the Allied Industrial Finance Corporation are Dr. M. O. Dumas, Mr. F. Morris Murray, Dr. A. B. Jackson, Dr. C. Mr. S. W. Green, of New Orleans, La., Dr. George E. Cannon of Jersey City, N. J.; Dr. R. M. Fowler, of Atlantic City, N. J.; Dr. J. Stubbs, and Dr. S. G. Elbert, of Wilmington, Delaware; Mr. E. C. Brown, of Phildelphia, Pa.; Dr. C. L. Jones of Cincinnati, Ohio; Mr. T. H. Kiah, of Princess Anne, Maryland. The counsel for the Corporation is Attorney James A. Cobb, of Washington, D. C.
The Allied Industrial Finance Corporation plans to be the largest and strongest Colored financial institution in the country and its program in the various states in which it has entered number of states, and in some of these states, all which con-
Washington, Nov. 30.— The nomination by President Harding of Walter L. Cohen as Controller of Customs at New Orleans is expected to cause one of the sharpest fights that has taken place in the Senate in months. It was predicted that Cohen's nomination would not be completed.
Business elements in New Orleans as well as the entire delegation from Louisiana in Congress opposed the appointment of Cohen to act as Controller at the port which happens to be second in the amount of business transected in the United States. Theि's administration of the mission of Governor John P. Parker to Washington a few days ago was to urge the Administration not to name Cohen.
Cohen's claim to the nomination is said to rest on the fact that he is the Republican Negro leader in New Orleans. His继任者, Loy York, has been a "senior" committee. Up to this time the Administration has appointed few Negroes to office and in fact not a great many appointments of "obnoxious character to the community involved have been made whither the nominees were white or colored. Stories have been afloat in the United States. They have the same rights as the elections are over the appointments will be confined to "deserving Republicans," and that party debts will be paid.
A renewal of the "Lily White" vs. "Black and Tan" factional split in the Republican party here has followed the action of President Harding in appointing Walter L. Cohen. The Senate, however, has the office of Controller of Customs, a position formerly known as that of naval officer.
The charge that the appointment was in the face of a "promise made by President Harding that he would not appoint any Negro to a Federal position in Louisiana or any other state. The Senate was made by Warre of Kenny, reputed leader of the "Lily White," faction.
GIRL CONFESSES SHE TIED

Clearfield, Pa., Nov. 30.—Miss Noro Moore, aged 18 years, who had been held in a local jail pending her release, was the only person she had been sold by her mother to a white man who bound her to the Pennsylvania railroad tracks near Philadelphia, five minutes before a fast passenger train was due, has been released after a commission appointed to interview her, she was sane, and she confessed to having tied herself to the tracks. Miss Moore's statements, but she demonstrated a unique ability to knot her hands behind her back, to leave with instructions to leave this country at her request.

Cloud was committed to the parish jail by Deputy Sheriff N. K. Fance, who was in a state of collapse and could scarcely walk up the jail steps, and could find no weapon of any kind. He believes that he must have had the small pocket knife with himself, concealed in his shoe. A short time after Cloud had been arrested in jail, he shaken his throat. He died at the Baptist Hospital on the clock Wednesday morning as a wounded man, adding to the wound on the throat. Cloud had a stab-wound just over the wound.

New York, Nov. 30—"Africa, like every other land of continental proportions, has all types of climates, due to differences in latitude and altitude, is a statement embodied in the Education Commission just published by the Phleps-Stokes Fund. For instance, British South Africa, which includes the States, is almost entirely in the South Temperate zone. All the West Coast Colonies have some high security favourablely modified, while the great Congo Basin has an average altitude of one thousand feet. In the subject the report says: "In the lower levels where mosquitoes and testes files have been a menace to chants and government officials are living with considerable safety and comfort. Members of the Education Commission for many years, in one instance, pressed by the sight of Europeans and Americans who have lived in the regions, the Commission saw four children, all in good health. In another station in Lower Congo there were two American missionaries and a teacher, the average of forty years in that region, notorious for malaria and sleeping sickness. The experience of the Education Commission is most reassuring to travelers in Africa. This party of Americans and Europeans is 25,000 miles for ten months in coast and interior regions of Africa, absolutely without illness from the disease. The cautions required were helmets in the tropics, daily quinine in malarial regions, and hot water where the temperature was high."
That the property of all peoples is dependent upon co-operative effort is the reason that the influence of the white race on Africa has so far been, on the whole, good, are conclusions reached from the report; on the subject that "Some have thought that the influences of Europeans and Americans are good for good. Some have thought that it would have been better to leave African in his natural condition. Some have thought that the influence of the movements that have been started and the changes that have been wrought. It must be made clear that the movements have been made and many injustices perpetrated. In some sections the Africans have suffered tragically at the hands of Europeans. Evil influences originated by white people still persist in too many parts of Africa.

CALLE AFRICA CONTINENT OF MISCONFERENCING.
New York, N. Y., Nov. 30—Arrita should be referred to as the "Continent of Great Misunderstanding" of Africa, and its vast potential strength in law material and in the development of international relations and of emphasizing the jungle savage; such is the theme of a report made by an international conference on African hydatic, economic, social, and religious conditions. The report was published by the Phleps-Stokes Fund.
The commission, composed of expatriates, held fields, about ten months in Africa during the fall of 1920 and the following winter, traveling more than 100 miles across the continent and equatorial Africa. Scores of schools and mission stations supported the Europe were visited, colonial officials and European traders were consulted and Native chiefs inter-
The personnel of the commission included Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, chairman, writer of the official report, director of education of the Phelps-Stokes Fund and author of "Negro Schools in the United States." James Kwegyr Agrey, a member of the Fanti tribe of the Gold Coast who is a professor in Livingstone College, North Carolina; Dr. Henry Stanley Hollenback of Wisconsin who for twelve years has been a medical missionary of the American Board in Angola. Mrs. A. W. Wilkie of Scotland, missionaries of the United Free Church of Scotland appointed by the Conference of Missionary Societies of Great Britain and Ireland to represent the British Societies, and the Rev. John T. Tucker of the Canadian Congregational Board in Angola; Leo A. Roy of New York, an expert in industrial education, served as secretary.
Bealdes the backing of the various missionary societies, the commission was accorded the hearty co-operation of Government officials. Educated Africans showed members of the Commission every courtesy and care, then a cordial welcome.
The reports says: "Of the many misconceptions that still tend to underestimate the importance of African inquiry and agriculture to hamper the efforts of Colonial government and to discourage the support of African leaders, such importance as to require consideration in any effort to evaluate the importance of resources and natural scenery; are Misunderstandings as (to wealth and promising possibilities of sanitary improvement; the improvability of sanitary improvement; and the positives of sanitary improvement; the improvability of the African peoples; and European and Ameri-
Dr. Jones points out in the report that the immense and varied resources practically unknown to the civilized world largely because the researchers so far have been made for private use have not been published, and that there is sufficient evidence of potential wealth to convince the government of opened treasure house of the world. The diamond fields of Kimberley, the gold ridge of Johannesburg, the mining of the tanzanian copper plateau of Belgian Congo and the oil areas of Angola are cited as specific instances of the richness in natural resources. The report continues: "Africa's reputation for unhealthfulness was not limited to the hardships of those who entered the continent without knowledge of the conditions of indifferent to the hardships of others, and to the newcomers into a new country. A fair comparison of Africa with other parts of the world will undoubtedly reveal the modern methods of sanitation and hygiene in exactly the same as the continents of similar climate, eco-
Setting forth that the most under-
state and unfair of all misun-
derstanders is that the African peo-
ple do not give promise of development
sufficient to warrant efforts
in their behalf, the report says:
"The improvability of the African
people is clearly shown by their
response to the efforts of mis-
sions, governments and commercial
organizations. There are physicians,
lawyers and ministers who have
completed the requirements of Eu-
ropia, the University. We have the num-
ber of small items is sufficient to pro-

struction that are more and more being
taken over by African workmen.
Every mission gives emphatic testi-
mology to the value of the Native
teachers and unisisters.
The importance of a comprehensive educational system is emphas-
ized and Dr. Jones recommends
to the other opportunities he provides for the teaching of both boys and girls. His plea also calls for
the development of colleges and pro-
gains and schools for the training of the new teachers without whom

has never hoisted the white feather, neither has it been disgraced by the yellow streak. It is not afflicted with the flannel mouth. It is a plain, every day, sensible, conservative newspaper, which trims no sail to catch the wind. It is a dignified double flag. It proclaims: patriotism so broad as country. Its love of it: justice covers all the territory occupied by the human race. This is pretty high ground, but we live on it and are proud to stand up and stand with us. This ground is holy.
REAL THANKSGIVING SPIRIT.
REAL THANKSGIVING SPIRIT.
At the cycle of time moves steadily along and marks off another year we find ourselves again at Thanksgiving. To the whole of our nation this occasion brings thoughts too various to mention; to but every one there should come some one to speak, to share, to self indulge upon the individual and causes him to realize that such a day has a real place in his life.
Let us for a moment look back upon the origin of this occasion and note the sacredness with which we an occasion was attended. Year ago, the early settlers realized the importance of giving to the Creator some eminence expression of this great ordeal, or freedom of life, health, existence and the work deftful opportunities for giving to civilization those achievements which might add to its growth. Coming to gather they set a part one day, it the year as sacred, when all the nation should turn thanks in unison. Through the year as this active day, we have done so. But we never ever really stop for a moment to think for our lives whether or not they are individual. The rightfulity of the freedom which might should attend it. Parties, balls and picnics banquets, feasts and albino-fledness are the most important of all groups, still in possession of the real thought of Thanksgiving, assemble them-rest in the house of the world. The most important is the power to be created for the many sensings bestowed upon our nation. Too lightly do we think of this occasion, celebrated with the spirit of joy, fun and frolic وامنوت, with no thought of real, bankfulness, which is the part of the culture of the world. We have been given and which we now enjoy. It is worth while to remember that one sin of the problem is all guilty in some species. The sin of ingrattitude. Consider for a moment the feeling of us is the most important of us. We give our full measure of devotion to some cause and after the sacrifice, and that those who are the first to be the same as they are in the same state, then do not feel as if they are in the same state as they are in the same place. Then do we not feel that or if Father is Heaven also feels the pain and sting of ingrattitude. The spirit of God is even but take all the power to hope that the true God is seeking with the whole world upon the end of life, and all with one second begint to the Father the real

THE DALLAS ENPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1922
Georges Clemenceau, grand old man of France, to use a slang expression, has "gotten up the backs" of a few of America's champions by his recent speeches. They seem to resent his implied charge of the unfairness of America in isolating herself from Europe's maddies and they make it known in no uncertain terms. Chief among the disgruntled so far heard from are Senators Hitchcock and Borah.
The utterances of Senator Borah, characteristic of the man, drive more directly at the question in point than do those of Mr. Hitchcock who in his primary expression reminds us of that all too well-known type of demagogue who would bring the color question up at any and all times.
But in the "Tiger" there is a courage of convictions which must excite the admiration even of his enemies, for he answers the questions of these men in kind and proves himself able to give as well as to reckel the keenest of thrusts.
We had not heard much vantage about black troops on the Rhine for several months and we began reluctant to feel that the rabid colorophobists who were required for it had centered their energies on perceptions at home. But we find this question revived by Mr. Hitchcock who demands of "The Tiger" the reason for the use by the French of black troops on the Rhine.
He is answered in a way to suit the most fastidious. Says "the Tiger."
"In the first place there are no black troops of occupation in the area of occupation of the enemy. In the second place, I have seen black American troops at the front, and they stood the fire with bravery, too?
"Of course this has nothing to do with the question of whether we are militarists or not. It is an attempt of German propaganda to oppose France and America and obscure what is really the great question.
"The Germans and all of our foes had been killing enough of our white men, and 100,000 black men fell gallantly fighting on the front lines. Woodrow Wilson called them. We are not going to deny them a place in history.
"Now those black soldiers were always more or less occupying towns in France and always got along perfectly with the white French people, even, I should say their discipline is stricter than any white troops.
"So—I have seen papers of German propaganda which I suppose inspired Mr. Hitchcock's and I can plainly say they are so many lies.
"The day before I left Paris I heard that these stories would be employed to give me a militaristic people. So I asked the official people to give me plain information. The answer was that there was only one established case.
The reason black troops were sent into the occupation zone at first, Clemenceau said, was to provide a few months of home leave for the white troops, "that had stood the fire for years until America could come, and were rather exhausted."
"We couldn't foresee," he said, "that it would be more objectionable to the Germans than to the French in whose towns they had been garrisoned. When we learned it, was they withdrawn?
"The German objection was more of a surprise because they employed black troops and if they did not bring them to the front it was because no means of bringing them could be found. They did find means to invade Belgian Congo with blacks."
It is refreshing to know that somewhere in the world there is a people which will "not deny a place in history" to those whose lives they considered worthy to be sacrificed in defense of their flag.
This plain speech of Clemenceau, not a defense of a class of troops accorded special privileges but rather a plain statement of the French idea of justice brings us unconscionately to a comparison with the generally expressed American sentiment that black troops ought to have died. Theirs was not patriotism they just fought. They defended a flag which refuses to protect them or to believe that though honorable in battle they are not worthy of a soldiers place in history.
From such a comparison America suffers even in the French eyes. It may be that upon this visit Clemenceau will be more aware the curiosity contradictory fronts which America can do.
The Supreme Court of the United States has recently decided that Japan cannot become citizens in the Ozawa case upon which the eyes of the nation have been set for many months. That this decision has caused high indignation in Japan is adduced from the comment of a leading Japanese daily which threatens reprisals thus: "We have gained monopoly of the majority of rich territories in the world on the principle of first come, first served, the most tyrannical and privileged people among all races. Their monoply must give way to fair distribution or war, and we yellow people numbering 900,000,000, claim the same freedom and rights enjoyed by white peoples everywhere.
"The demand for equal treatment of all races, gave President Wilson sleepsights nights in Paris, when formally put before the conference, will not die with court decisions and state laws, but will remain proportionately as the civilization of Japan and other eastern nations."
To those who look anxiously upon Japan as America's next aggressive antagonist such pronouncements must cause added anxiety. But they may satisfy themselves with the occurrence that such expressions were probably not totally unexpected by those high in American authority.
America's next war may be with Japan. Who knows—and what of it? if it comes, however the outcome may be it will have from the well defined American policy of "no Orientales welcomed."
The justice of such a policy as far as Japanese are concerned as compare with the welcome which America holds out to those of other countries is beaded the point at issue.
Whether in future years America, shorn on the support of her quondam allies or the Great War will regret her step when Japanese demands become more insistent we cannot say—nor can any one. Certainly it is true that America at least has the right to decide who she will welcome into her citizenship, and the privilege of denying admission to those whom she may a judge unassailable, and incidentally it seems that her allies during the War will meeting agreed with her on that point. The racial equality question proposed by Japan has not yet been answered.
We would not swap our American residence for any other. But even the most loyal of us earnest, desire that some of its inherent tendencies would change, particularly the one which relates to black soldiers and the country which they serve.
Something seems to tell us that the Tiger of France may get his hide marked by the talons of the American eagle.
So Harding has appointed a Negro to a fat job in Louisiana. Was it a slap at the Lily Whites or a move to reward the faithful.
Cohen may be the leading Republican of Louisiana but his appointment will cause a howl just the same.
Garvey and Barnum seem to have the same idea al out the public. He has already contributed more than $3,000 for Garvey's defense fund. He is being tried for defrauding it.
What will become of politics when all of the demagogues die?
JAPAN IS EXCLUDED
THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION
TOO MANY WHITE COLLAR JOB ARE HAMPERING OUR PROGRESS.
Respect for labor, for work with the hands, is the one greatest need of the Negro race. Education it already seeks and the advantages of it are established. Money is a common aim, for all men. Political power and its allurements have such a strong hold upon the race that our earliest work in that direction is a bww work, every day work, bliss shirt, overalls, corn in the hands, and sweat on the brow, is despairled to the extent that respect for it is a pressing problem. Too many white collar jobs are being sought by the young Negro of intelligence. The women are giving their preference to "dudes" instead of men. We must face about.
By no means would we have the professions and business deserted, but we would have work respected. All men are not fit to become doctors lawyers and business men. Some are craftsmans by every natural inclination. These must be saved from the folly of seeking public approval rather than following their preference. There is no labor that is to be anced at, like we are doing now. There is no stamp of merit on any profession, that it is worth having for the title. Most business men are failures. The whole attitude of the race toward hard work is easily accounted for but is none the less inexhaustible.
The doting parent wants his children to have an easier time than he had, and in bringing that to pass he unintentionally brands his own manner of making a living as unworthy. Hence our immense crop of miffies, our lites at hard work, and our eagerness for the white collar job. We are trying to give all in the distributing class, with no producers, and our industry is topheavy. We must build broader foundations, and to that end we must have a strong, well-organized tent bent, and our race councils must devise ways of increasing our number of workers with the hands. —K. C. Calh.
CLEANING OUR OWN HOME
We have been gradually coming to the opinion that Negroes need to start a house cleaning within their own ranks. All of the wrongs from which we suffer cannot be laid at the door of the other race. Some of the obstacles which beset us are of our own building. Our main difficulty in a lack of responsible, unselfish and sincere leadership. We have had leaders and leaders and we have hundreds of them today. Some have been black men, some have been white men, and some have thrust themselves upon us. Some are white and some are black. Few of these leaders have shown any inclination to suffer for us, to stay among us and be of us, or to jeopardize their social or ecomic standing for our betterment or liberation. We have had "words, words, words," but little action and sacrifice except from a very few. There have been Negroes—such as Robert Moton—picked by white people and set before the whole twelve millions of us as our leader. There have been black men, such as Marvin Garvey, and white men like Thomas Jesse Jones, who have picked themselves to lead all the Negroes every day. We have had Negroes in middle and middle sized, who have essayed the role of leader. This type is found everywhere. He is of national prominence, a state leader, or the leader of his city. The local leader is usually a lying venal politician, an uncorrupted and ignorant preacher, or a rancily grafting lawyer. Very often these three are found in a ring together, robbing, submerging and "selling out" all the rest of us. Few of our leaders are men who have any degree of passion to serve the mass of Negroes to the point of being a slave, where they no remuneration. It is unfortunate that in these days of storm and stress we have no Gandhi and no MacSwiney.
The average Negro leader seems to be perfectly satisfied to grow fat and sleek himself even though the mass of his people remain thin and lean. Very often he becomes opulent by wealth who he leads remain in ignorance and poverty. Often he places burdens on the plain Negro so grievous to be borne that this plain man cannot lice.
The leaders have had a great deal enough to the common people usually use them as a great deed of mercy and mass of us stumbling darkly down at the bottom and the leaders living in luxury and social and economic security. As a rule this luxury has been provided by black laboring people who often get nothing in return.
The cure for this situation is in the hands of that great horde of Colored men and women upon whose backs this丰满 pack of leaders rest and from whose meagre earnings they live and wax powerful and worthless. We say the cure is in the hands of the ordinary Negro. It is our duty to the self and its sales and demand more. —Pittsburgh American.
THE ELECTION
The election surprised everybody, Democrats no less than Republicans. The Republicans were wise enough to know that they were due to sustain some losses. They admitted as much. But they were in no degree prepared for such a defeat as was administered to them.
Months ago Republican leaders and politicians admitted that the elections would reduce their majority in the House of Representatives by a quarter. And they were ready to acquaint with complicity. But the defeat of November 7 cut the Republican majority of 167 in the House down to a majority of about a dozen. The Democrats themselves never expected nor even hoped for any such result, and undoubtedly they are as much surprised as the Republicans.
Comparatively, the results of the elections on the Senate were equally as disastrous for the Republicans. The Republican majority has been reduced to a nominal majority of ten.
Particular instances in the election, especially as they touched the Senate, were even more significant than the general result. In Michigan a Democratic senator was elected for the first time in 70 years. In New York a Democratic senator was defeated, was defeated by a Democrat. In Delaware Senator DuPont, with all of the additional prestige and advantage which his immense wealth gave him, was defeated by a Democrat. In Indiana former Senator Beveridge, whose election was conceded by all parties the day after his nomination, was defeated by a Democrat. In Wyoming Mr. Mondell, the Republican leader in the House was defeated in his race for the Senate by a Democrat. Perhaps more significant than all is the fact that in Massachusetts Senator Lodge barely squeezed through. In fact, a recount of the vote was necessary.
One of the most significant elements in the whole election was the independent action taken by Colored voters.
In Delaware it was the Colored vote that defeated Caleb R. Layton who voted as has the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the House, and who was running to succeed himself. In the same state Senator DuPont's defeat was partly due to the fact that he forced the nomination of Layton contrary to the expressed wishes of the Colored voters.
In New Jersey, R. Wayne Parker, who also voted against the Dyer Bill in the House, was defeated by Colored voters. In the New York City the degree to which Colored votes the straight Democratic majority was reimbursed and materially to pile up the unprecedented majority received by Alfred E. Smith, the Democratic Governor-otet.
In this tidal wave against the Republican party we regret that some of the men who had fought hard for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill went down. Senator Calder and Representative Anserge in New York; Senator France in Maryland and Townsend in Michigan. We do not think that these individual defeats were due to any lack of appreciation on the part of Colored voters but to the fact the reaction against the Republican Party was too strong to be held back.
The ultimate results of the election, we believe, will be beneficial to the country in general and the Negro in particular. It is a bad thing for the best interest of the country for any party to be strongly entrenched in power that it feels its position to be impregnable. In the case of the greatest number of two years ago had been retained at this time, it would have been very natural for the Republican Party to feel that it did not have to worry very much about the Colored vote. As it is, the Republican Party has had its power in Congress down to the narrowest margin possible, a majority of about a dozen in the House and less than a dozen in the Senate.
The campaign for 1924 has already opened and the struggle will grow
Hebrew celebrated a similar festival called the "Feast of the Tabernacle" During this festival the people assembled in large numbers and the celebration was done and the time was given up to feasting and celebration.
HOW NATIONAL THANKSGIVING
BEGAN.
At this particular season of the year it is appropriate to tell about the woman who after twenty years of patient effort, succeeded in having an annual Thanksgiving celebration in this country observed on the same day by all of the people.
The name of this woman was Mrs. Sarah Josepha Hale. Few women, either before or since, have accomplished more big things for the betterment of the men and women.
They have many people of the present generation have ever heard of this gifted woman? She was born at Newport, N. H., October 24, 1788, and died in Philadelphia, April 30, 1879. She was not a college woman, but was taught by her mother. In 1813, at the age of 25, she married a lawyer named David Hale, who was a brother of Salma Hale, the famous historian and, at one time a member of Congress from a few stamps. Nine years later she was left a widow with five children. She was a genuine old-fashioned American woman, and did not clamor for government or individual aid. She was quite content to go to work. In 1828 she became editor of the "Ladies Magazine," which had recently been started in Boston. She successfully edited this publication until 1837. Then, in a new method with "God" in Laddie Book," published at Philadelphia. She continued with the latter publication until 1877.
The harvest festival of the ancient Greeks was known as the harvest festival of agriculture, which was celebrated in November. The Romans worshiped the same deity under the name of Augustus, the god of agriculture, and Dueds of ancient Britain celebrated their harvest festival on the first of November. Some of the American Indians also celebrated their harvest festival on unlike these. In Scotland the festival not unlike these. In Scotland the festival was observed under the harvest festival was known as the "Harvest Home." Days of Thanksgiving for special occasions have been common in all Christian countries in all ages. Several such celebrations have been held in England one of which was the harvest festival made in 1588. The inhabitants of Leydon, Holland, for many years obeyed October and as a day of gratitude for the deliverance of that day from the Spaniards in 1674. The fact that this was a popular festival among the Romans, the Pilgrims lived in Holland may have suggested to them the idea of thanksgiving to celebrate which they had learned.
Editing a magazine is usually considered a pretty big job in itself. Mrs. Hale, however, seemed to find it easier to organize the Seaman's Aid Society in Boston, which is the parent of similar organizations now existing in the Bunker Hill monument was also partly due to the efforts of this little woman. She persuaded the president to raise $20,000 for that purpose.
It is altogether probable that the first thanksgiving service in North America was held on May 27, 1578 by the *bishop* on expedition, on the occasion of the ceremonies were conducted by an English minister named Wolfall.
Our Thanksgiving Day.
The first record of a thanksgiving service within the present limits of the United States was that held by the governor of Maine in August, 1697. From an old record is taken this account of the event: "Sunday being the morning, the most part of our hone company of both our hole company of both our ships, landed on this island, where the cross standeth on the shore, and the river livered unto us by our prescher, giving God thanks for our happy meetings and safe arrival into this country; and so returned aboard
The plan of educating women for medical and missionary service in foreign lands was inaugurated by the president, who devoted a number of years to this effort, finally succeeding through the organization of the Ladies Medical Missionary Society of Philadelphia, and the Women's Medical Missionary Society of Heaven Lands, formed in New York.
It was in the early 1970s that Mrs. Hale began her campaign for president, and its holiday, and its celebration on the same day all over the country. It was then the custom for different localities to observe the occasion of the holiday day happened to strike their fanny.
According to some authorities a thanksgiving service was held by the Pilgrims as early as December 1620, and by Mayflower. This, however, was merely a thanksgiving service Thanksgiving Day, such as we now know, at the Pilgrims' innernor Bradford, of Plymouth. In November, 1620, the Pilgrims landed on the loneseason coast of New England, and winter with great suffering and privation. When Springtime came they all got busy and planted a tree more carefully than a new baby. The very lives of the colonists depended upon the success of that tree, and the rejoicing in the Autumn when a bumper crop was harvested. Governor Bradford issued a proclamation that all ample provisions for the occasion he sent out four men in search of wild game. They returned with a few keys. It is doubtless due to this incident that the turkey has always been considered a necessary feature first a thanksgiving festival lasted nearly a week. The principal guests comprised a large number of friendly Indians, including the fam
For twenty years Mrs. Hale wrote editorials in her magazine, and personal letters to governors and presidents of the United States. During Thanksgiving Day, Her efforts and patience were rewarded in 1864 when President Abraham Lincoln asked her to lead the nation and decided to adopt her plan. From that day to this Thanksgiving has been celebrated by the whole nation on the fourth Thursday of No. 11.
Of Remote Origin.
The observance of days of Thanksgiving did not, of course, originate in America. Its origin goes back to all nations. In ancient times these celebrations usually took the form of harvestThanksgiving. The anecdote of the first harvest festival sacrifices and other ceremonies. Ancient India had its harvest festivals and they are still observed in many countries. Perhaps the earliest harvest festival of which we have record is the one mentioned in the Bible as being observed by the Canaanites. The NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLOMBIA FAIRS TO MEET IN JAMAICA.

more intense from now until November of that year. In the election of a week ago the Republicans had their eyes opened regarding the Negro vote. It must have come as something of a shock but perhaps nothing less than a shock could have cleared their vision. Undoubtedly the Negro vote will need to put forth every effort possible between now and the elections and had Colored voters in the states where the Negro vote is the balance of power which they have never before. The fight between the two major parties promises to be extremely close. The Colored voter has already demonstrated to the country that he can vote independently for his own best interests. If the Negro follows up the advantages which his present position gives him to the Negro vote, he will be regarded as a political factor to be respected and reckoned with which he has never held since his enthrancement. — New York
