It immediately became the part of Southern Democrats, which was the most naked and brutal exhibition of its kind ever. The bill was generally carried on under some sort of disgrace, but Senator Underwood, leader, stated plainly and bluntly that the purpose of the filibuster was to prevent any consideration was taken on the bill and that the Democratic side would not allow any governmental action on the Dyer Bill and that the Democratic side would not allow any governmental action on the Dyer Bill and that the Republican agreed to abandon the Bill not only during the extra session but even during the The filibuster was carried on from Tuesday through Saturday, and the Senate Democrats would not even allow the adoption of the record of the Senate's proceedings.

Tinkham of Massachusetts in a letter to President Harding, has suggested that the failure to enforce the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the flagrant as the current failure to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment He suggested that the President should not overlook the failure to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment which guarantees the Negro the right to vote in the government upon the failures to enforce prohibition in his address to the next session of Congress. Representative H. Tinkham letter to the President follows: Hon. Warren G. Harding The White House, My Dear Mr. President- It has been stated that in your address to the assembly at the meeting of the Stryker-Seventy-seventh Congress it is your intention to refer to the widespread disrespect compiled by the unparalleled Congress to enforce the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution and the subsequent consequences. There can be no deformity in its necessity. All parts of the Constitution should be enforced equality and impartially and in no part nullified. The greatest respect may draw your attention to the fact that whereas the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution is permissive in respect to legislation to enforce it the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which is mandatory and preemptive, no person is presented in proportion to disfranchisement is mandatory and preemptive and completely unrestricted and nullified. With the greatest respect, may I also ask you to affirm the fact that with flagrant and widespread disfranchisement established by a mass of indisputable evidence of knowledge and the section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the office you hold and the representation of the lower House of Congress is tainted with Mr. Garnet C.

Dec. 14.—A British expedition has underlined the tomb of Ramesseh VI, near Luxur, two rooms containing the funeral paraphernalia of King Tukakamen, who reigned about 1340 B.C. at a time when the new dominant and superlative white races were in a state of civilization. The king was new extant. In those days the torch of civilization, lighted by the Negro race in upper Egypt, was still being carried by Negro nations. After forcing an opening with considerable difficulty, the excavators were amazed at the sight which greeted them. First, they saw three magnificent statues, all gilt with precious stones, in the form of a Typhin, Hather and a Lion. On these rested beads beautifully carved, gilt and inlaid with ivory and semi-precious stones and also innumerable boxes of exquisite workmanship. One of these boxes was inlaid with ebony and ivory with gilt incryptions. Another contained emblems of the world of the dead. On the tomb of Ramesseh VI, two robes handomely embroidered with precious stones and golden sandals, were beautifully painted hunting robes. Inlaid with ivory with most delicately carved duck's feet, the robes were a collection of art pieces unsurpassed, and hardly equaled, by anything in existence today. Beneath one of the couches was the State throne of King Tukakamen one of the beautiful objects of art ever discovered. The throne was adorned with portraits of the King and Queen, the whole encrusted with turquoise, cornelian pearl and other Two life-sizes status of the King with gold work, holding a golden stick and race faced each other. The King and his attendants and feet and were delicately dressed richly studded, glass and a head dress richly studded. There were also four charities, the sides of which were enriched with semi-precious stones and rich gold on the walls of the chamber, showing the King in triumphant combat. The soldiers were all painted as dark-brown. Many scenes depicted them painted like the latter, the latter painted yellow and plainly denoting Asiatics. Several scenes showed Asiatics prisoners of war being guarded by the latter, the latter being Sudan in whom Egypt unusually placed her truant in the brave old days of old. address to the Congress you draw its attention to its present unnatural constitution and its own legal and constitutional obligations.

The committee recommends that scientific survey and study of the Negro community, by a commission selected by and under the direction of the work it is thought should cover the extent of Negro crime, the character of crimes committed, and their crimes of whites and blacks and of the sentences imposed. The committee report contains the following information: "We denounce the practice of lynching and appeal to all officers of the law to prevent such crimes." "We insist upon the full compi- tion."

The administration sustained its firm position in the recent election when the senate last Wednesday recommitted the $8,000,000 Liberian loan bill to the Senate for the purpose of restructuring of 42 to 33. The motion to recommit was made by Senator Simmons, a democrat from North Carolina. The senate sent back without instructions. A motion received by McKay, republican of Oregon, to recommit the instructions was beaten by a narrow margin of 38 to 42 votes. In the Senate, a number of republicans swung against the bill with the democrats. Thirteen republicans voted to recommit the bill: Cameron, Arizona; Ald. Oklahoma; old. Oklahoma; Washington; Ladd, North Dakota; LaFollette, Maine; Oregon; Michigan; Colorado; New York; Polish-American; Washington; Sutherland, West Virginia and Watson. A Democratic side voted solidly for the bill. It is claimed that this action will kill the Liberian loan bill by burning it indefinitely in the committee. NEGRO LABORERS ARE LEAVING GEORGIA Atlanta, Dec. 14. — The exodus of Negro laborers from the farming sections of the state is increasing. The state is seeking to information from the state labor department, although every possible effort is being made by that department. It is known that immigration agents, operating in the interest of the state, are manufacturing concerns of the federal government in several counties in Georgia and where the complaint has been made, however, makes the statement that these agents has compiled with the law. The state labor department, however, makes the statement that these agents have with the law, or who is authorized by law to take Negro labor, or may be required to pay a license of $1,000 in PRICE FIVE CENTS ```markdown ``` aire to operate, in addition to which each county in which he may de-mand have a local license from the state, though, is not the controlling feature of the state law. It is required license fees required, an omnigrant agency must, before he can operate at all in Georgia, obtain free license fees, which can be issued only after such agent has filed a detailed statement showing for whom he is operative, and the license fees extended are to be taken out of the state, where they are to be sent and what wages are to be paid and for what time they are to this. After the state permit has been issued, every agent is required to labor departments, giving the name of each labor engaged, the address the place, to which he or she is to be employed, and at what minimum wage. No such report has ever been filed nor has the state issued one. Why Not Give A Gift That Will Grow? You Are Thinking Now of Christmas. TEXAS TOWNS. High School Notes.

Wichita Falls was made glad to know that efforts were being put forth to establish a Hospital among the institutions and a dedicated institution nor a better line to perfect the plans than now. When she happened in the case of Mrs. Idea Taylor, a woman of God she has proven by her works in this city to be a woman of grace and a grave condition without any doubt and because of this and lack of Poor Farm! Not! But when this dear woman was found in her home alone as she lived, such great care and a grave condition (white) at the City Hospital, E. E. Tremble and Sister J. Polster who left their home went out face to face (white) at the City Hospital, and made a way for this poor little soul. She could only remain in her home despite the claims she claimed her case Palcair, and she must go to the County Farm. Anna was dutiful above anyone else in her case and we colored people of Wichita will see to her until the county can see and Mrs. Taylor is comfortable her friends awaiting her final chance, much cannot be waity of our town.

KING IT HAPPENED IN DALLAS She was little and wrinkled, soft of speech. And in her eye was the look of those who had seen her and had been taken in by the lack of the things denied them in the days when white masters grew up for their negro slaves. Many times she had gone to the post office window to cash the monies she had given to her and to thirty-five, sent to her from home in a far off state. Each month for more than two years she had not learned to write in her youth and in later years the care of the children had given her. But there came a day when she no longer waited for the crowd be held up to her and suddenly she buddy took her turn and in a slow but legible way endowed her order and to the clerk with a strangle. He took it without looking at her. But being familiar with her she made sure "made her man," he looked at her and in surprise ask: "What are you said I am. I am not too old to learn. The free night schools gave me the chance that I had never He was pleased. But not so much as she. It happened in Dallas. That woman though aged realised that she needed to learn. She needed of others in such need who have not yet taken advantage of the opportunity for improving the abilities which our splendid city is offering them. But the schools are still open. It is not yet too late. BUY XMAS. SEALS. It is often claimed that criticism is easy but real construction is hard. Therefore critics never propose constructive projects. Last week the Express took the liberty of calling to the attention of the people of Texas the fact that the State Association of Negro Teachers was failing of its highest efficiency. It gave as one of the causes of this failure the fact that its leaders for many years had lacked vision and that their leadership had been passive rather than active. This assertion becomes more evident when one begins to cast about for some definite accomplishment of the association during the past few years. A serach for such a thing is hopeless. It does not exist. One can point with pride to nothing in its history of recent years but meetings—social but not valuable otherwise. But when one turns to a consideration of what this body could accomplish under the direction of a leader with a definite and constructive policy, the results are different. Its possibilities are vast. And we feel it not unprofitable to call attention to some of the directions to which it might turn its attention with profit. Texas has made wonderful strides in the past few years in providing increased facilities for Negro education but the task of encouraging the increased attendance of our children upon them has been left for us. In this, teachers may well lead actively. They can be most effective acting as a body. Nor are adults to be omitted from any scheme which looks toward the decrease of illiteracy among adults, but the drive against illiteracy among adults, could do more to create and foster the desire for education than any other agency now in existence among us. To actively aid in the decrease of illiteracy Our teachers association having perfected plans for a drive against illiteracy among adults, could do more to create and foster the desire for duction than any other agency now in existence among us. To actively aid in the decrease of illiteracy is a possibility of the association which not it either does not see or see, the fraudulent procuring of certificates by teachers is damaging our children with crippled intellects and condemning them to a lower - efficiency than is right. Whether or not definite proof of specific cases of this sort are at hand, the lack of ability of a large percentage of teachers in Negro schools lays them liable to such a suspicion and in the absolutely apparent lack of fitness for the positions which they hold is found the justification for the suspicion. The potential teachers degrade the profession and rob their pupils. An active policy of repudiation of unfitness by the association would ultimate in lasting good to the race and state at large. These two things need to be done by some means in Texas. The State Teachers Association could do them most efficiently were its policy more definitely committed to construction than it was to maintenance. The better buildings increased, respect for the profession stimulated in many quarters where it does not now exist were it differently conducted. Why should this not happen? Further failure only brings nearness to the utter disregard into which the profession must fall because of inexcessive inefficiency. THE LIBERIAN LOAN The proposed $5,000,000 loan to Liberia has gone down to oblivion with the Dyer Bill under the vigorous anslaughts of the Democratic minority. As measures they appear as dead and void of chances for speedy resurrection as it is possible for legislation to be. A fillburster of unprecedented skill the Dyer Bill. Bidi-colle as the death of the Liberian Loan plan. But coupled with this ridiculous act of a charge of what amounts to graft against five of our most prominent men which deserves to be repudiated and proven as ridiculous as anything ever heard in the Senate. Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi charged that Dr. Emmett Scott, James A. Cobb, Wm. L. Houston, W. H. Lewis and Rev. Earnest Lyons were under contract to secure $650,000 if the bill passed. These charges have been emphatically denied and hailed as ridiculous. Well might they be. We feel that such denials are sufficient for while it is not altogether unthinkable that such a thing might have occurred, it would not help us much at this time. For the free government provides the leaders of our leaders have hewtofore been free from such suspicions. Liberia somehow must struggle along without the hoped for $5,000,000. If had we proposed a road and harbor improvement on the strength of her hopes of American aid she must either abandon them or seek elsewhere for the finances with which to complete them. In spite of the fact that Liberia has failed signally to make progress commensurate with her opportunity, we could have hoped that America, of which she is almost a part, would have felt the urge to help her not charitably, but in a way calculated to have avoided that point of being able to help her to a point of competence. Liberia will probably seek aid elsewhere. Probably it will receive it for its natural resources are many and abundant. And in this seeking elsewhere it will run the risk of an exploitation which will forever blight its chances to grow substantially and well. While such exploitation would not have been impossible in the past, it would have been less likely the light of the history of the two countries and the relationship which the founding of Liberia by American Christians brought about. THE THIRD INTERNATIONA LE AND THE NEGRO It has been reported that the Third Internationale has adopted a resolution declaring that the United States is destined play an important part in the struggle of the African race for liberty and that lessasm as America to is the centre of the communist campaign, being freedom to the N gross of all countries should be concentrated. The resolution was drawn up by a special commission of the Internationale appointed to consider the Negro question. One member of the commission was an American Negro. The resolution, which was adopted without a dissenting vote, declares that the Negro question has become a live issue in connection with efforts toward a world revolution and that the Communist Internationale, recognizing it as such, calls attention to it as a problem which must be dealt with. This appeals to us as only another one of the sporadic attempts which the Communists and Bolshevists of the world are continually making first in one way and then in another to plant their of their insidious doctrines in the minds of American Negroes. It is our opinion that this attempt like all others of the past will fail. American Negroes, while thoroughly dissatisfied with some of the circumstances attending their American existence are by no means willing to embrace any new doctrine which is founded upon no solution and anarchy. Their progress, remarkable in the extreme, has Leen made under the guidance and because of what Bolshevists choose to call "capitalism." Their educational institutions from the beginning were endowed by funds from such coffees and are still being supported to no small extent from the The progress of Bolshevism in the country, where it has been not tenderly embraced—Russia—has been enough to sicken and dismay possible followers or admirers of many lands. And if to any extent American Negroes had looked upon it favorably, and we know that en masse they did not, the flaeco in that country would have been enough to sicken them It is prov. that the whole of the affair, Resolution and all is traceable to *the* American Negro member of the Intervallesian THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1922 OCCIATION. real construction live projects. telling to the at- tate Association eney. It gave leadership. THE MIRROR of PUBLIC OPINION The United States Senate is hagged with a filibuster. The minority insists on invoking every rule, written or unwritten, to delay the game and make business impossible. Senator Harrison wants to know why the text of the chaplain's prayer is omitted from the journal of the previous day. Senator Ocrerman makes a point of "no quorum" and Vice President Coolidge is compelled to order that the roll be called for the sixteenth time. Senator Harrison demands that the records be amended to show that Mr. Ocrerman is on Tuesday at 1 p.m. A two-hour debate on this momentous question follows. All this means that the Democrats do not like the Anti-Lynching bill and are willing to talk themselves hoarse in order to prevent a vote upon it. The situation is rather pathetic, for the Democrats have given up their traditional position upon States' rights on all issues except one. Time and again they have favored a strong central Government, but make an exception in reserving the right to burn Colored people at the stake. In this last-ditch opposition to lynching the Democrats have furnished a striking illustration of what all them. They are bound to a sectionalism which should be dead a generation ago. The solidity of the Democrats is a testament to their determination. Until the Democrats abandon the point of view which causes them to filibuster for the right to lynch, they cannot gain the confidence which might be theirs. —Boston Globe THE INCONSISTENT SOUTH Southern Democrats for State right, manifested now in connection with which a fillholder in in progress in which the Negro figures, it is refused or even hesitated to ratify the high water mark of Democrats in the State, have Southern Democrats in the various schemes by which Federal view of the richer States, are pareth their theoretical objections to the Dybyst the rest of the country.oses no constitutional change, but liberal power to check the flagrant den constitution, involved in tolerated me the connivance of State and county majority favoring the bill should more to be as good a time as any. if a too long delayed reform and enas a minority to block the majority's of pure obstruction. The solicitude of Southern Democrats for State rights and their dread of centralized power manifested now in connection with the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill, against which a filibuster is in progress in the Senate, seizes confined to issues in which the Negro figures. It is not on record that any Southern State refused or even hesitated to ratify the Eighteenth Amendment, which was the high water mark of Federal encrampation on the South. The Senate has long been in a critical in opposition to the various schemes by which Federal revenues, largely supplied by a few of the richer States, are pareled out for purely State purposes. So their theoretical objections to the Dyer bill will hardly be taken seriously by the rest of the country. The bill proposes no constitutional change, but simply designs to utilize existing Federal power to check the flagrant denial of equal rights, accorded by the Constitution, involved in tolerated murder by lawless mohe, often with the connivance of State and county authorities. The Senate majority favoring the bill should meet the challenge seurately. It may prove to be as good a time as any, if the filibuster persists. The Senate will form and form an objection which enables a minority to block the majority's will and hold up legislation by tactics of pure obstruction. —P.

The Democrats of the Senate are in bad business when they deliberately enter upon a filibuster to prevent the consideration of the Dyer Anti-Lynch bill, and thus tie up all the workings of the upper branch indefinitely. And we are especially surprised to find so ordinarily sensible and pariahic a man as Senator Underwood, the Democratic leader, who is the chairman of the board of the Senate, necessary to kill the bill, which he seems to think so awful a violation of States' rights—Southern States' rights, that is. Not all the Senate Democrats, however, are in this conspiracy to defeat a measure for the protection of the legal rights of the Colored man in the South. Among those who have "put country above party" is Walsh, of Massachusetts, and there are several more who believe, with the exception of Senator Underwood, that the standing disregards of our American civilization. — Boston Post.

If action upon it, it will not pass, that being the tite die. The chief objection offered to the Dyer anti-lynching bill is that it is an invasion of state's rights. This matter was thrashed out when the bill appeared before the House. Its opponents then went so far as to state that if it were passed the states would cease to exist except as geographical expressions. The matter of fact, there has long been indecision as to the boundary between Federal and state rights in the exercise of the police power. This the Dyer bill aims to eliminate. If the state or county fails to prevent lynching its officials become accountable to the Federal government. It is simply a matter of substituting Federal enforcement for local non-enforcement. The state is under a pledge to protect Americans and foreigners within its borders. If it continues to fail to do so, what other remedy is there than for the Federal government to step in? Few indeed are those people who attempt to justify lynching. But it is not enough merely to deplore this barbaric practice. Of what good reason would it be that a state would be when people who have the power to put an end to it, are unwilling to support measures designed to achieve this purpose? — N. Y. Tubane. There is very patent determination on the part of opponents of the Dyer so-called anti-lynching measure now being discussed in the Senate to prevent its enactment during the present extra session of Congress. It is a very harmful measure, not only not a preventative against lynching but in direct violation of the rights of the states to make and administer their own laws. Senator Shields of Tennessee has given much study to the matter of the constitutionality of such a measure as well as its resultant effect. He is leading the fight against its enactment and other Senators, notably Senator Robert F. Kennedy, who has publicly aid him in admittedly so, but so怨vious an infraction against the sovereignty of statehood, so outrageous the measure's aims, that such opposition is thoroughly justified. Mr. Dyer of Missouri, a Republican, is the author of this measure, which has already passed the House. If action upon it can be held up until Saturday night, it will not pass, that being the time when the extra session adjourns sine die. — Nashville Banner TO REKINDLE THE OLD FLAME. rm The State has denounced lynchy Carolina, it has repeatedly described a human life without excuse and wate state within the only definition battle has been waged against lynch the contradictions and in inconsistence. Iulpit and press together with woe en who know that for a state arried on unfalteringly this campaign regress has been rejoiced. Except no Southern state is intelligent put Nearly 32 years the State has denounced lynching and lynchers Lynchers in South Carolina it has repeatedly described as "murderers," because those who take human life without excuse and without justification in the law of the state come within the only definition of murder. Long years the battle has been waged against lynching in South Carolina. Long years the contradictions and inconsistencies of its apologists have been exposed. Pulpit and press together with the great body of law that for a state in no security, outside of law have carried on unfalteringly this campaign. Remarkable progress has been recorded. Except in Virginia and North Carolina in no southern state is intelligent public opinion so aggressively avenged against lynching as in South Carolina and in none other has the crime been so nearly extirpated. South Carolina is one of the two Southern states in which Nc roes are a majority. yet this evil has been reduced to a point far below that of Florida, whose population is largely composed of immigrants from the North. These things being true and indisputable, it is no comfortable posture into which T. State is driven when it opposes a measure that has even the color of intent to prevent lynchings—and that kind of measure who chose himself as "speaker for his race." And the whole of the discussion which will eventuate from the publication of such reports will be caused by him—a seeker for publicity of whom the masss have not heard. But the fact that him who would thus "speak" for us should be looked upon with the utmost disfavor and showed by no uncertain means that his energy might have been more efficiently directed into different channels. American Negroes do not favor communism and Bolshevism even for Russia. As for themselves and their progress in America, they feel that other means will produce for them more lasting and substantial results. The Dyer bill is not aimed at the suppressing of mob law. It ontemplates no punishment of the mob of "ideas," or strikes, or of hired things of a coal operating company. It ignores consideration that lynching is a crime directly proportionate to the policing of a community or lack thereof. It discriminates in favor of the city with its army or equipped officers that may be mobilized with approved apparatus of mob suppression against the sparsely settled rural district of a county with one contender to 50 square miles. It is a notion alien to the theory and historic practice of American constitutions born in the minds of a racial group agged on by present day representatives of fanatics who 60 years are relied on lynching the constitution to carry their point and openly strength in Congress as out of the fear of the political strength of the nation in certain doubtful states. It is a sample of the class of measures without merit of their own that make progress in legislation in front of the trying wield of a minority with a single idea. Passage of the Dyer Bill would then violate the vices of all that has been accomplished to put down lynching in the South. The bill reeks with the gorms of the deconstruction shame, insinuation that feuds could be revolutionized for its sympathetic enforcement will follow its enactment. That would reopen the old quarrel, retarding the emergence of non-againstism to consuming flame. Columbus. RSPHCLCJANS AGREE TO ABAND- DON DYER BILL. (B) A. J. Washington, C.

PERRY HOWARD DOES HIS BET TO DEFEAT DYER ANTI-LYN- CHING BILL. New York, N. Y., Dec. 14—Anounding revelation of the activity of Perry W. Howard in an attempt to defraud Anti-Lynching Bill was made by the office of the National Association for the advancement of Colored People which made public the trow of a white man. Mr. Howard, Senator T. Coleman Du Pont of Delaware. This letter was dated Nov. 23, 1922, just three days after the event. Mr. Howard, Senator T. Coleman Du Pont of Delaware, made being made to have the bill brought up and pushed. In this letter, Mr. Howard declares he has "blood in his veins" and that he calls a "Negro Democratic Organization" and insists that no legislation ought to be enacted by the N. A. A. C. F., or its sympathizers. Mr. Howard's letter is in part as follows: I received your letter of Nov. 22, upon my return from the West where I have been almost the enemy since the close of the campaign. I confess to you that I have blood in my eyes for the National Association of Colored People and the Association of Colored People and others have used them with sinister designs to defeat some of the best friends that I have and particularly the Nation in general. The purpose of this letter is to call attention of you and other outrages that you have done to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is purely a Negro Democratic organization on the side of the Democrats in the final analysis. This organization uses job busters and others, and you own your defense agency. I corrected the evil in Wilmington, and if I could have helped the neighborhood on the following Monday, I have saved the day but I had an engagement to fit for Sneater Free Press was impossible for me to do as. Now, I may call attention to the fact that whatever legislation or whatever else is passed on behalf of people of this country ought certainly to be done and done promptly, but I insist that none of the people of this country have the reason of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or any of its sympathizers. We should be the policy of the leaders of the party like you to absolutely abide by the laws of the United States to such men and women as Weldon John, W. E. B. DpBois, Robert L. Yann, of Pittsburgh and another, there should be quarters, and when every Colored man with fairness and looking well to the interest of the group, the political boloshaists should be as inherent of inrogress. In Mr. Howard's letter to Senator Du Point, it was stated that copies were being sent to Senators Froeling, McCormick Watson, and Mossa also to Senator Caughey, who it is to be presumed would be interested in the charge by Mr. Howard that Messas Johnson and Vann are "poorly behaved." Copies of Mr. Howard's letter were furthermore sent to the chairman of the Republican National Committee and were circulated among prominent Republican Senators. Mr. Howard's reference to his wishing to have the Dover neighborhood will interest those Colored readers who the Dover hill is. recall that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was instrumental in defeating the Republican representative on the sole ground that he misrepresented his constituents by voting against Bill in the House of Representatives. The defeat of Dr. Layton, largely because of his work of Mrs. Alice Dunhair Nelson, was regarded among Colored people as wall as among white politicians as one of the leaders of solidarity and power even evinced by Colored voters in America. Delaware became an Objective State in 1865, showing the strong feeling among Colored voters about the Dyer Bill. It is presumably against this proud state to be complained of, as complained on the sole issue of the Dyer Anti-Jackson bill, that Mr. Perry Howard could have "saved the life" Mr. Howard was appointed to an office in the Department of Justice in 1865. He is also a close personal friend of Senator Pat Harrah of Mississippi. It was Senator Harrison who helped the state overcome that he had "information" that certain Colored men were to benefit heavily financially by the pass of the In the same tenor as Mr. Perry's letter was a paragraph widely cited in press asserting that lobbying by the Democratic would hinder enactment of the Dodd-Frank law because Republican leaders regarded the Association as a "Democratization of the American economy."

"That is exactly what "Liam," and dogs with the rim and woven at the bottom of the entertainment of a much-advertised tone. Whoever is responsible for the rasp with the rim, and dogs with the bottom of the entertainment of the Daily's Sirtied Theater gets under war—whether it be the author, the writer of the play, or the fact remains that last night's gathering was "right before it," the fact remains that first barn of the music. "Throughout the performance it was unmistakably certain that every man was enjoying himself and chorus—was enjoying himself or herself. The emiles were not the stereotyped grimaces of the Broadway chorus; they were the real boys and girls pleasures that the ducky boys and girls were taking in the entertainment. They were taking in the stage; all happy that they could sing and dance for them, and patiently proud that their efforts were successful." IN DEFENSE OF BARBARIUM.

WAS BORN IN AFRICAN ADVENTURES. New York, Dec. 14—Writing in the New York Call, Jean Longuet, and grandson of Karl Marx, now a country makes an attack on Clenencio and branded the French ad-venturer Morocco as the direct cause of the war. "He (Clementeau) forgets all the colonial policy of adventure, more especially in Mexico, and having gone above all for this reason. "He (Clementeau) forgets all the colonial policy of adventure that that man had in the mountains, including his own; more especially toward Morocco, and more especially toward Spain, and most adequately, then, dominated the floor of the French Parliament, our great Queens, and did France demonstrate that by invading that African country, in violation of the very treaties that our Government where in the world the apprehensive of the various and diverse nationalities and imperialism of Germany, Italy, and France, is of unseen police.

Farin, Dec. 14—Before the Chamber disputed this afternoon Deputy. Chamber of Deputies countryman from Senegal made his protest against disqualification of the black fighter and his deputy, who was accused of the title of champion. The Deputy's motion to reduce appropriation, was defeated by a large majority, and there is no doubt that he has helped greatly the cause of his countryman. The chamber start the speaker declared that an attempt had been made to deprive Sikit of his rights. The referee did not want to give the decision, and ever since a country him. He was accused of having celebrated his victory too freely. He was accused of having "that means nothing more than he has too quickly become accustomed to the hibits of your civilization." and the Negro Deputy. "When man does man does not nobody protests." Siki was accused of grandalous behavior and of having struck a speaker wont on, "but was that sufficient ground to take from him not only his title but the means of his defense," he said, his defender said, adding, warningly: "These men, who are an French as you are, though they are of different color, have a right to the same justice as you. When Siki was asked to make a profitable tour of France, he was still a Frenchman and refused. That showed his real character," Diagne continued, and the speaker was still up in French, coming up in French Federation the idea that there was a different sort of justice in France for white and black men, he fought to defend the nation.

Ski is finding champions among the Boxing Federation and M. Glaine's motion has been out against the Boxing Federation for unjustly depriving Ski of his title, and for the lack of support of the opinion that a champion should never be deprived of his title because of conduct not afraid to sport of which he is champion. Even in the columns of the Tennys, the French official organ, the French press, the sport of which Paul Souday, one of the most eloquent writers of the French press. On the question of principle, the French press has Ski and his defender in the Chamber of Deputies have a good deal of right on their side; or has not done the things he is accused of it is incontestable that he flattened out Georges Carpentier and added to the power of muscles he showed them? Such a point of view as that of the federation is really useful and rather unimportant man like. "THE FEMALE IS DEADLIEST OF THE SPECIES" ASK TOM WHITE. (Patrick News Service) 14.

Mr. Garvey will make several addresses during his stay in the city and will be present in front of his organization. Many of the leading Negroes of Pilsen have been involved in the movement because Mr. Garvey and his organizers are not Ameri- ticized and his organization is striving up unrelent among Negroes in the United States. These persons express a serious doubt as to Mr. Garvey's eligibility for misuse of funds and gen- eral misuse of management as grounds for his indictment. However, the more ignorant and working classes in this section have rallied to the Garvey movement and are supporting it. Whole heartedly.

It came before a considerable attention and wide discussion. Pecs. Kolan proposes the question everywhere and especially in the United States be submitted before the conference in open session for the purpose of clarifying the question everywhere and especially who are unfamiliar with the problem in other countries. However, it was suggested that the Negro movement support the Negro movement everywhere in connection with a proposal to call a congress at Moscow of all the countries to support the world, to realize a united front of all workers against capitalism and imperialism, and to make that the political rights of Negroes in the United States were more scraps of paper and that for a long time the Negro paganda among the Negroes in favor of white capitalists and against white workers. Until now, he said, and done nothing to counter this. Claude McKay, the versatile writer and speaker, who, it is understood in not a delicacy, addressed the Internationale. Mr McKay asserted that the Negroes of America were denied the right of citizenship, one of the capitalists being to turn the mind of the white man into a war by inciting him to race war.
