VOL. XXX. NO. 11.
Taukegue, Ala., Jan. 4. —A release on lynching on the United States sent out by Dr. R. K. Mioton in October gives the number of persons lynched as 57. That this number does not include those killed in strikes, riots, etc. is followed by the letter, as is followed by Taukegue Institute, Ala., December 31, 1922. Dear Sir:
I send you the report on the past year as compiled at Taukegue Institute in the Department of Records and Research, Monroe N. Work in charge, in strikes, riots, etc., that there were 57 persons lynched in 1922. This is 7 less than the number 64 from strikes, riots, etc., that there were 57 persons lynched were taken from the hands of the law; 13 from jails, and 17 from officers of the law. I also find that there were 58 instances in which officers of the law prevented lynchings. Fourteen persons lynched were taken from the States and 44 were in Southern States. In 54 of the cases the prisoners were removed or the guards augmented or other precautions taken.
The 4 other instances, armed force was used to repel the would-be lynchers, convictions carrying penitentiary

Wilmington, N. C. Jan. 4—Reports that relief work in Newbern after the fire which practically destroyed the city is being manipulated to the disadvantage of Negroes are unfounded. Investigation among the leaders of both races brought absolute denial of allegations that white people are diverging related supplies to their own uses and disclarated their own uses of black goods. The report, of both white and Negro workers to co-operate in the rehabilitation of Newbern. The only possible basis for the rumors of discrimination lies in the fact that the city government of Newbern is seeking to condemn certain properties in the Negro section to be used as a municipal park and cemetery extension for both races, but a part of this property is owned by white people. Both white and Negro property owners in the section have taken the matter to the public.
It is true that the Negro brick church St. Cyprian's Episcopal, was used temporarily as a relief hospital after the fire, but it was with the consent of the rector and the congregation. It has been evacuated entirely and Negroes are being cared for in an apartment house in the heart of the city directly opposite the City Hall.
The Rev. Robert R. Johnston, rector of St. Cyprian's Church, lend to the Negro Relief work and one of the most prominent Negroes in North Carolina, refuted the allegation that his people were being unfairly treated. He declared that his church was proffered as a relief hospital and so used, but only for a short time. The hospital was visited by the Bishop of the diocese of St. Rev. Thomas C. Darst of Wilmington, who expressed himself as pleased with the work going on. The Rev. Johnston will conduct a church service in his church tomorrow.
The Negro clergyman said that Negroes of Newark are being raped and abused in employment situation is fast improving. Three hundred and one person, many of whom were Newark employment agency last week. Mayor Edward Clark of Newark said that the Negroes of the Rev. Mr. Johnston and declared that everything possible was being well as well white cities all. All relief supplies to Newark by Negroes those donated by whiteness have been delivered.

Sapulca, Okla., Jan. 4. —Armed guards are patrolling the dividing line between the white and Negro sections of the city with orders to permit no white person to enter the Negro district and to keep the Negro special sections and special specials are watching all roads in this vicinity in an effort to apprehend the Negroes who Montezuma billoned one and wounding the others. The "dead line" was established as a precaution, explanation explained, and a district, a few hours after the attack on the policemen, which destroyed four buildings, three of which believed to have been from the faces of the attacking party. The order separating the two races, however, permits Negroes who are from the Negro district to go to and from their work to

Los Angeles, Calif., Jan. 4.—Waraw Lundig, the last of the unfortunate thirty-five Colored soldiers who were killed in the incarceration for participating in the Houston, Texas, riot, four years ago, to receive parole, arrived in Los Angeles, where he began a campaign in the interest of the six-four of his comrades.
Was Sentenced to Die.
The Colored soldier had an exciting and disagreeable experience of being accidentally condemned to death during the trial of the rioters. According to Lindsay's story, on the night of the Houston riot he was out visiting a girl and had not even taken his rifle from its rack in the barracks. Instead of going to his quarters, he went to Camp Logan, but because he did not return to camp that night and failed to answer at roll call, he was accused of participating in the riot and arrested with the other soldiers.
He stood trial at court martial, and when the verdicts were brought in and the names of a certain number of soldiers to be executed the next morning were read Lindsay's name was among them. The mistake was not discovered for two hours, which with Lindsay as authority, were the longest 120 minutes since the beginning of time.
To Publish Story.
During the long years of his incarceration Lindsay spent much of her time in prison, with affair, with discussions pro and con each, he has announced, he intends to publish in pamphlet form the book *The Prisoner*, that his comrades may have some of the joys of Christmas. In an interview with a representative of the prison system, he said, "Of all the prisoners confined at Leavenworth we are the most friendless and apparently most forgotten by the criminalists and all such at them, who in most cases have been traitors to this country, all seem to have some one-
Sixteen Were Hanged
It will be recalled that sixteen are hanged almost within twenty-four feet of the prison fence; and three more later. There were then sent to the Federal prison in September, 1918, sixty-seven "glories." About forty of them were unarmed and were sent to a 15 year sentence. Sixty-four are still the federal prison at Leavenworth.

Richmond, Va., Jan. 4 — Five months have passed since Judge Moncure named Jim Gordon Tucker the captain of the Bankers' Savings Bank of which John Mitchell Jr., JR., has been appointed as the alleged faulty banking process operated by officials of that institution.

WOMAN DROWNS SELF
WHEN DEPORTED
New York, N. Y., Jan. 4.—Goldberg Grimes and three children, the oldest two and a half years, the youngest ten months, are lonely for they are sailing somewhere down on the Caribbean Sea or possibly the South Atlantic, en route to their Barbados home, but one wife and mother is dead in the cold and chilly waters of the Hudson where off the Hoboken harbor.
The family has been living in Boston, and when Mrs. Grimes became mentally deranged, the Massachusetts authorities (caused she would become a public charge. As an alien, she alleged insane woman was ordered deported to her former home in Barbados, and she was brought here under guard to take passage on the Lamport & Holt liner Vasarl, which sailed Saturday, December 16, from the pier at foot of Fifteenth Street, Hoboken. The husband and three infant children accompanied her.
Just how it happened, no one knows. But after being placed in her stateroom, and apparently safely disposed of for the long ocean trip, Mrs. Grimes in some way evaded supervision, elimbed out through the port of the statero, and crouched into the cold waters of the Hudson River instead of starting on the journey which had for its objective the warm and sunny shores of the Barbados.
The mating of the ship was delayed while a vain effort was made to find the left body. Finally when convinced that she was gone and there was no hope for the immediate finding of the body, Mr. Grimes and his motherless babes sailed with the Vassel en route to their home on the British West Indian Island.

Jan. 4—Following announcement at the local Rotary Club last Thursday night that Negroes from this section now in the local Rotary Club have their old jobs here, a committee was appointed to provide ways and means of furnishing transportation to Negroes in local planters, industries and business companies might receive, by the secretary of the club, "Nuggets of Negroes who went north earlier and early fall have already returned, mostly at their own expense, and early fall has best way to Helena from Chicago." continuing the report declared, "A resentful of the difficulties encountered by Negroes in northern industrial centers are appalling. Negroes in these areas have the promise of high wages. They get the high wages alright, but the living expenses are correspondingly high. Negroes in these families and when they are compelled to buy mutable clothing to work, pay doctor bills, pay the wages, pay doctor bills, etc. their wages are insufficient.

In the South.

Anti-Lyaching Crusaders' on behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is reproduced in this column, without being paid for it, because the people trying to sell anything but pity and mercy and justice and tolerance to the American peon plot. The consensus of opinion is that this advertisement was the greatest effort in the struggle in behalf of justice to the Negro. The temporary setback on the Dyer Bill in no way affects the determination of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People on this issue until lyaching in America is stamped out. Defense of Arkansas Promage Vio-
Defense of 12 Arkansas Colored peonage victims, first sentenced to death in 1819, in connection with the killing, has been carried by the Advancement Association to the United States Supreme Courts where the case was adjudicated. The cases of 6 of the 12 men have gone to the Supreme Court after passing through four State and Federal courts, and after twice being sentenced to death and five times having dates for their execution set. In the other 4 cases the Supreme Court twice reversed the verdict of guilty of the Phillips County Circuit Court, and reversal of the Association's attorneys obtained a change of venue. On four occasions date for retrial was set. In the State of Arkansas, it announced it was unready for trial. The Association's attorneys are striving to obtain under the status of limitations. Before the United States Supreme Court, the Association and the men will be represented of the American Bar Association who is now President of the N. A. A. C. P. and by Sepio A. Jones of Little Rock, Ark.
Beaches the 12 Colored farmers sentenced to death, 67 others were sentenced to various prison terms from a few years to life imprisonment.
Fight Against Peonage.
The Association in carrying on the defense of these men has expanded $14,000 of funds raised for the fight against the Islamic State, also been raised and expanded by the Colored people of Arkansas. The fight has been conducted not only to right a grievous wrong done to the people of Arkansas, but as well, by taking their cases before the highest tribunal in the land to open up the entire question of the Islamic State's nomic handicap and source of much of the brutal exploitation under which the Negro sufferers in the cotton raising communities of the South have been.
Civil Rights and Extradition.
In addition to these two outstanding efforts, the N. A. A. C. P., in January fought successfully with its Buffalo Branch and other agencies in the state to prevent the Canada of Matthew Bullock to North Carolina where he would probably have been lynched. Through efforts of the Buffalo Branch and the National Office discrimination affecting thousands of Colored ship stewards in the United States, the Buffalo Branch was told old and advices was given in the winning of numerous civil rights cases in New York and other States. The Buffalo Branch was also branches in Indiana and other states against threatened attempts to introduce segregated public and high school schools. The Buffalo Branch we prevented the extradition of a Colored man to Georgia. Thus the Buffalo Branch we secured the conviction of a man who had criminally assaulted a nine-year-old Colored girl. through the Prince George County and District of Columbia Bureau of the Colored man arrested and accused of the murder of a white woman, of which crime was about to be sentenced to death through mob passion. We in many other cases too numerous to mention fought for the securing and preservation of the rights of the Negro.

PRAIRIE VIEW.
The Christmas week was filled with many and various forms of amusements and entertainments for students, teachers and residents. The social clubs have been busy planning and executing programs not only for the pleasure of their members but for a good many others who happen to stand in such relation to these organizations or members thereof as to ensure their presence at the various functions. It is so happened that there were three or four who fell in this category. Among the most distinguished visitors on the campus and who participated in several of the social functions were Dr. and Mrs. Prince Eugene Martin of East Chicago, Illinois; Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, Special Technical Assistant, Rehabilitation Department, U.S. Vet.
One of the plans of the school for the new year, is to get in touch with every one of its graduates and the purpose of compiling a record of their names and the work in them they are engaged. The institute, in which the students and the progress its graduates are making from time to time, is required to send a statement of the year he graduated together with a brief history of the work that he is following and is following at the time of writing. Master examinations will be held this week and it is probable that when the final results are known there will be room for other new graduates to form formulas and in the class rooms.

Our City And Ourselves This Year.
New Year is always filled to the full with resolutions of various sorts but nearly always they perish due to lack of commitment, or because individual who makes them. Seldom ever are they made in terms of improvement upon the community they serve. There can be no doubt though that every individual member of every community should so feel his responsibility for the success of the community. It is important that he should resolve to do his level best to make of it the very best possible. The resolution there is greatly increased chance for the improvement of ones individual pursuits. For a better community means the opportunity for individual expansion. It would accrue greatly to our benefit if we, as members of the great civic ant; Dallas could make our community the best of ours in the development of ourselves and our city. Thus would we more greatly grow individually and personally, and way none need feel that his circumstance harms him from active participation in a campaign of bet-
The keeping of cleaner premises, the regulation of one's own life to conform to the dictates of civil liability, the active support of school-and-churches and the encouragement of business fall within the reach of the possible for every citizen of our metropolis.
Increased misconcerns and support of our business as enterprises is badly needed in our financial life here. We do not control enough. We do not weight as much in the financial scale as we are possibilities offered by our city warrant. This is a grievous lack, but one which fortunately be removed if we but resolve to work more actively and live more cooperatively.
To more near-fill such a financial need is to advance the welfare of our city is just as great an exit as will cleaner premises and more effective homes. That the establishment and maintenance of more institutions calculated to improve our financial status will lend and survive a permanency to our homes and premises which would otherwise be lacking.
Resolutions in terms of civic improvement are in order. They will prove of lasting worth if lived up to.

It appears that during a recent interracial meeting in Louisville Dr. I. Garland Penn made the request that the Negro be judged by his highest accomplishments as the white man is and not by the lower and criminal ones of the Negro people in the Louisville Courier-Journal under date of December 17 which we take pleasure in reproducing without further comment.

The request of Dr. I. Garland Penn, at the inter-racial conference, that the Negro be judged by his highest accomplishments, as the white man is, and not by the lower and criminal class of Negroes, is reasonable.
Few thoroughly educated and well-balanced Kentuckians are so unreasonable as to judge the Negro by the criminal class. But for the unfortunate fact that the Negro in Kentucky permits himself to be the servant of a political party, with the result that more or less Negro batting attends periods of political agitation, the relations between whites and Negroes in this State would be upset, while satisfaction both races.
Giving the Negro his due includes nowadays giving that race the credit for having been somewhat less productive of most varieties of criminals since the World War than the sundry white races constituting the white population of America have been.
Even when the difference between the numerical strength of the black and white elements of population is taken into consideration it is apparent that the white race is providing more payroll bandits and similar outlaws than the Negro race contributes to the sum total of crime, and that the Negro bootleger, although by no means unknown, is not the more prominent type of bootleger, and that illicit distilling on a commercial scale is unimaginable. The fact that the Negro race contributes to the white man's greater organizing capacity, or his more frequent familiarity with business methods, is, of course, a question which might be put.
The Negro assailant of women is a conspicuous type of American criminal, but if Tuskegee University should include in its interesting annual statistics of lynching a full report of arrests for criminal a 'sault it would be found that the white race has by no means a clean record in that respect. Yet the white race is not judged by its criminals when its morality is under discussion. The fact that the white race is represented almost exclusively in the criminals' records is astonishing, atrocious, and commonly attended by torture such as delights savage night be pointed out by a champion of the Negro race as showing that the escutcheon of the white race bears a singular blot.
TEXAS LEADS AGAIN

Texas again leads the nation in lynching. Out of a total number of 57 persons done to death by mobs, Texas people were guilty of 18. Nearly twice as many as her nearest competitor, Georgia, and many times the number of all of her sister states except Mississippi which comes third with 9. Those who heretofore have considered Texas as peopled with a savage and barbarous breed of men seem to have their opinions vindicated by a rule of mobbists not even remotely approached by any other state in the union. And seemingly this barbarian is to proceed unchecked.
Why should it be? Why should this state filled to the full with natures gifts, a land where "every prospect" please be a state where "only man is vile?" Is there no sense of shame—no better thought, no desire on the part of any substantially large group that improvement be made in this regard? No, no desire to seem that by new some deep rooted sense of shame would begin to make itself felt to the end that mobbism be curbed.
No state in the union made itself more easily heard in its denunciation of the Dyer Bill than did Texas. It joined its voice with that of its sister states in declaring that "we need no federal supervision. Our states rights should remain involiate. Let us handle our own affairs." WILL TEXAS HANDLE THEM? Such a question may well be asked in view of the fact that she has for a second time in the past three years led the nation in lynching. Seeingingly the whole mind of the public is turned rather to other things than to a desire for more civilized behavior.
And what is true of Texas is to a great extent true of the whole Southland. Nine states participate in 57 lynchings. In only ten instances were persons convicted of participation in them and sentenced. Such a comparison is not productive of much hope. The only ray of hope which is at all to be found comes from the Inter-racial movement which, slowly but with an increasing sureness, is making itself felt for good in many communities. And in this connection the activities of Southern white church women may be mentioned for they recently have launched a movement which may in time accomplish much good. The recent gathering of Methodist women adopted plans for the enlistment of the 250,000 organized women of the Southern Methodist church in a systematic campaign for the suppression of lynching.
A large group of representative women from thirteen States, all of them officials of the Woman's Missionary Council or Conference, have been issued a vigorous address to the public Relation a Commission of the Council, grant three days in conference and at the conclusion issued a vigorous address to the public relative to the lynching evil, calling upon the authorities of the several states and counties for its complete suppression and up a the citizens, the pulpit and the press for their united support to this end. The defeat of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was used to give point to the utterance.
They further pledged themselves, individually and in an official capacity as representing the social service leadership of the organized Methodist women, to a persistent campaign for adequate state laws and for law enforcement. Totals of the plan are already being worked out.
The statement follows:
"Whereas, the defeat of the Dyer anti-lynching bill, which provided for the federal control of lynching, has thrown the whole responsibility back upon each state for removing this hideous crime; therefore,
"Be it resolved, that we, the Commission on Race Relations of the Woman's Missionary Council, Methodist Episcopal Church, South, the conference social service superintendents and other officers in conference in Atlanta, Ga. December 4-6, 1922, do demand of the authorities of the several states that they make good their claim proving their competency to abolish mob violence and lynching.
"That we assume our responsibility as citizens for the protection of human life and hereby call upon all the people of all the states, upon the pulpit and upon the press to join in an insistent and persistent agitation against this barbarous practice.
"That we formulate plans for an organized movement in behalf of adequate state laws and law enforcement."
From this source only do signs come which lead us to believe that there is hope for better days in the future.
And yet we all know that lynching must be suppressed if organized government is to endure.
We have only begun to seek relief from it. Our every means must be used, our every friend invoked in order that we may be enabled to live more nearly in security and in peace.
The lynching record for 1922 is damaging to the nation Texas record of incarceration in it is most discouraging to who would take pleasure in her reputation as the biggest and best state in the union.

An effort is now being made on the part of the great industrial interests to change the present method by which immigration into the United States is limited. By the present method immigrants are admitted in accordance with the unfilled quota allotted to the various nations. When a quota is filled no more of the nationals corresponding to that quota can be admitted. There are two classes of people in the United States who wish these immigration restrictions down-limits, who hold that the doors of the country should be barred against no person who wishes to enter to better his condition and become an American citizen and the great industrial interests who claim that the bars should be let down in order to overcome the shortage of labor.
In principle, the position taken by the liberals is just and proper. In practice, there may come times when it would be disadvantageous to the people of the United States. Then it would be neither proper nor just; it would be merely a bit of sentimentality. It seems dangerously near to be the case that the greater supply of labor, but there is no actual necessity of getting it from abroad. The Negroes in the United States can furnish all the labor that industry may require. In fact, by right this common labor belongs to the Negro in preference to any outsiders.
Only a few months ago the condition of the country was one of unemployment. Unemployment has decreased and disappeared not only because of the revival of industry but also on account of the crude labor supply from foreign countries being cut off. If the gates are opened wide and the labor supply that it will not take long before labor will again be a danger on the market.
But this is precisely what the big interests want. They want cheap labor and plenty of it. They have brought foreigners into the United States in big batches, worked them in the great industrial plants until these foreigners became familiar enough with the language and standards of American life to make large demands; then the industrial interests have brought in fresh batches.
The labor field in these great industrial plants rightly belongs to the Negro. Already because of the reduction in the numbers cf common laborers there has set in another migration of Negroes from the South. If this industrial field could be held for twenty years and the Negro given his legitimate charge at it, there would be wrought within that time an almost inconceivable change in the whole race question. —N.

THE SOUTH'S DUTY BY THE NEGRO.

mons bear a share of responsibility—the

For much of the tribulations inevitably in store for those of the Negroes who are leaving their homes in the South to find employment in the congested centers in the West, the Southern white people and the Negro preachers must bear a share of responsibility—the white people for indifference to the activities of the employment agencies that are inducing this labor to quit the South, and the Negro preachers for not giving the warning word to the Colored people against being victimized as they have been many times before. Bishop Chapelle, of the South Carolina Conference, called the congregation's Epiphany church, told him he was a part of inimitable possibilities when he urges the Negro preachers throughout the South to make practical use of their pulpit opportunities in discouraging the Negroes in any movement that would take them from their homes. The Bishop is asking these preachers to sermonize the situation, and we can imagine the beneficent results from a few sermons in the Negro churches directing the minds of the congregations to the one important circumstance that they are not being toiled away for their own good, but rather for the selfish purposes of the employment bureans who turn them over to other agencies and leave them to their fate. The Negro preachers could be called to the South to help the Negroes in the South trouble, and that Ku Klux talk is being used for the purpose of creating a scare among them.
But before dismissing the excellent suggestion by the South Carolina Negro Bishop, the Observer is minded to commend him further for the suggestion that the Southern landowners make better provision for the health and comfort of the Negroes. The poor accommodations afforded the tenant farmers in the South is a standing reproach to the people of the land. The farmer is just fondly reminded of the few content that is sending labor from the farm. The farmer who is wise to provide comfortable homes for his help will find the lesser difficulty in keeping his farm going. A comfortable home goes a long way in nullifying discontent over inadequate wages. Under the old ideas the farmer gives his attention too much to the bungalow, the allo and the barn, and too little to property housing his tenant. Under developing conditions, the time is coming when it will be no decent home, no tenant. Almost every state in the South has a law to fit the case of agents who are not permitted to work the days when Peg Leg Williams was raiding the State. Peg was a fine citizen of the people almost cried when they learned that he had been jailed at Laurentburg—but the hundreds of Negroes he had tagged for exportation remained in the State. The human duty of the people of the State is to exercise every means in combatting the seductive influences of the employment agent. The experiences in store for the Negroes now going into the populous centers in the West is very likely to be a repetition of their experiences in the past. Their coming in large numbers will be resented by the people among them. They will be ill-treatment, youch handling—and after that the riot. History will not be true to itself if this does not prove to be the case.
We do not appear to be doing our duty in safeguarding the welfare of the Negro. Our Southern men in Congress likewise might be indicted for neglect of opportunity. They let it all a few days ago when the Dyer hill was under discussion. At the same time, Dr. Robert Motton, principal of Tukeague Institute, was going over Georgia in company with 12 associates on what he termed "a good-will tour." In the course of his speeches Doctor Motton gave eloquent testimony to the good relations existing between the two states. A black man had no friends in all the world quite so good; the white people among whom he lives. The Observer believes inimitable good would have been accomplished if these speeches of Doctor Motton could have been porated in Southern Illumina are speeches on the floor of Congress to inclusion of publication in The Congressional Record. That The Observer's notion was one which held popular attention is attested by the letters bcn, received at this office. One well-known North Carolina, living quite remote from this part of the State, ants to thank The Observer for the suggestion that Doctor Motton's adresses "he put in pamphlets in the New York Times" in the New England States and Middle West. He had written to Washington and suggested that the Motton speech be read into the Congressional record, because "a finer proof of Dyer's position would be hard to get, considering the high authority from which it emrates." The fact ought to have dawned upon the country by this time: it was already known in the South—that Dyer and Tinkham are backed by an organization for which a lot of he headened Northern Negro preachers serve as the mouthpiece, not one of whom is familiar with the favorable people of their color live in the South, and who, under their mistaken idea, are making attack upon the best friends the Negroes will ever have.
The Southern white people, aided by the intelligent Negro preachers, ought to be establishing a more active degree of co-operation in protecting our Negro population from their enemies. The very pity in the situation is an appeal for action. —Charlotte (N. C.) Osserver.
Two childish mish: it is stunned beyond expression when first it, crises the rest, mat that there is no Santa Claus. Youthful vagaries are shattered and blasted when the truth is learned. Sooner or later all of the illusions and fasttails of youth are met by truth and death stands cold and insolent. It is established facts. With the coldish mind the destruction of petrified wisdom must come sooner or later. It is inevitable. Likewise it must come to
races and all who sojourn in this life. They must learn, like children, that in life there is no Santa Claus.
Philosophers and theorists may propound what should exist here on earth. Beautiful doctrines may be advanced. Sermons may be prescribed and humanity may be filled with emotions, and tera may be brought to one which have been constitutionally dry, but sin, avice, greed, murder on the golden rule remaining a beautiful ideal. Governments are conducted on this principle and might still be, and those who think differently are like little children who believe there is a Santa Claus.
In America the black people are like little children. They believe that something is coming down the chimney of American affairs and be placed in their ragged stockings. They believe, because they are poor, be ragged, hungry and wretched, that the great heart of America is going to open up and make them a present of their constitutional rights. This is not going to happen. America in never going to be the Santa Claus of our country, we want anything put in their stockings they must get out and work, agonize, suffer, drudge and toil for. Freedom to the black people came as a political act, and that time nothing has come as a gift. There is no Santa Claus.
We the black people in America, have dreams and desires of a square deal, a fair chance, and the privilege to live as all other American citizens live. These benefits will not be bestowed upon us by any good fellow. There is no Santa Claus.
All subject nations must sooner or later learn the lesson. Ireland is learning Hayi. Hayi is earning money. The domesticated American infant learns that the legislative body of America refused to make a law against yachting, that the black body should have learned it, but we are afraid that the black body is still a child race and with anxious heart it still awaits for the American Santa Claus to bring to them their right; but there is no Santa Claus.
Gifts and presents will come to us only through our own initiative, our own endeavors. Humanity's heart is cold. Nations seek power and prosperity, and in the eternal grind for it the weak are crushed and only the strong survive. Empires are built at the sacrifice of human rights, India, the West Indies and Africa bear mute testimony to that fact. No thought is given by England as to the rights of the natives. If they would be free "the must strike the first blow." No one is going to give it to them because there is no Santa Claus. American black people have learned the lesson, and, like the child resistant to break away from its mother's bedtime stories, are still trying to conjure up a Santa Claus, but their task is futile. They want their stockings filled they must play Santa Claus to themselves. There is no Santa Claus.

The influence of Soviet Russia is very obvious in the character of the two newly created commissions, the Soviet Union and the agitation of agitation and propaganda. Many Turkish Nationalist leaders consider the present Russian Constitution the most important document they have been in constant touch with Soviet Russia during the last two years and in a position to know about conditions in that country.

Boston, Mass., Jan. 4—Chicago, New York, and other big cities make of rulers, overgrown with weeds, and cramped, with a casual home of a few roaring bands of almost savage men and women.

NOW POLITICAL LEADERS TO HOLD CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO,
Chicago, Ill., Jan. 4.—The advent of the year will mark a departure in political consideration for the Middle West. It is learned on high authority that a conference of well known states, not allied in the war, will be called early in the New Year for the purpose of presenting a memorial to the public in the memorial, will be proposed to set forth in the memorial that in all political contests, the great states of the Middle West will be represented. Colored citizens study the issues, and vote according to their best judgment for the best interests of the state and national, these voters should have representation, and that those who live in the section and understand the wishes and need of the people, and not those who are not citizens, will be sent to remote sections out of touch and consequently out of line of reasoning with those of the Middle West. The vote to send to the "Powers that be," and there will be no let up in the presentation, that there have been effective results.
SAYS "SHUFFLE ALONG"
CONTAINS NO REAL NEGRO MUSIC
(By A. N. P.)
Chicago, III., Jan. 4.—Discouncing on the musical merits of "Shuffle Along," Dilharr Dillard Gunn, a noted composer, told me the following comment last week:
"The question arises. In it the kind of talent that interests the American music queeting for the American musical is quite certain that it is not. So far as "Shuffle Along" is concerned, it is not a question of creative talent, but of musical versatility and initiative talent. Its model is found on the Great White Way and its idom is the current musical versatility way.
There has always been a good deal of real Negro music made known to the American musical public in the last ten years. One finds it in the spirited Negro music of the Negro Negro music, which is finding its place in the great composite of American music. "Shuffle Along" is a great Negro music and melodied by the Negro accents.
And the voice of Broadway changes so often that no one knows what he is its favorite regent ten years from now.
No. That statement must be modified. The voice of Broadway has always been a monotone, so it sings persistently, without regard to the passing inflection. It is paraphrasing a bont mot of Mime, is of, course the cash register."

Evanston, III. Jan. 4. — That袭警 is a white man's possession as well as the mental property of a black man. Wednesday when eight German police dogs, valued at $1,500, saved a man from an alarm of fire at the Foxwood Kennels, two miles west of Evanston on the Dempater road and brought him to the scene. He was in the house, a hundred yards away, when the fire, starting from an over-heated store, started. He was taken to him the scene in time to save them.

BOYD DEMOCRAT NOW RUN BY
PUBLICAR PARTY.
Discountable | Native Votes.
Albany, N. Y., Jan. 4: Albany for the moment at load, as the fire is still within the town, is a fireman, is again the Governor of this great State, and strangeness of the people, and a great interest as well as a highly important hope ledged in the fast. We are in the midst of the time we can let our hopes room where they may choose to live.
It seems to be the conscience of opinion here that this condition of the situation has never been the situation eva lae as it has five years ago. It is, perhaps, one of the interesting facts that fall elections. The effects literally awing in the sky. Gracey and above board the New York City face looking for a new political landing place. Albany would seem to be the best place to justify a peek behind the curtain to see just whether the welcome corner is located near the door or over the wall.
Governor Alfred Smith is the big magnet. He seems to be a regular fellow. A Democrat "that true, but a regular fellow." A man of all the people" is what they are saying about him. This notion of him, they are also saying, holds good way down in Virginia where the Negro is luddy looking about for new political money.
Ex-Congressman Samp;K. Semp knows a thing or two about what they are doing in this particular year. All of us will remember that it was in the Old Dominion State where the Negro vote footed its own political expense account, and made Rasmüel Semp take to the woods last fall. One of those Virginians was heard to say just after the new Governor had finished his inaugural address, "Smith looks good to me."
This aspect of the present political situation among Negroes may be only a flash in the political pan. And yet it looks very much like it is in the投票ed than that here in New York State. Whatever may be said about the matter there is small question concerning the fact that the Negro vote is hurt to its very soul by what is now being considered in the ranks as "The perfidy of the Republican Party." "The Devil," they are saying, "who might as well go into the Democratic Party, the Democrats are all but running the Republican Party these days."
The defeats of Frelenghusen and DuPont, of Layton and Parker, and the near-burrowing of the political leaders of the country, led Lodge in Massachusetts show how deep the hurt has cut. Even in Illinois and in Indiana, the damage is not insignificant; it is quite probable that nothing but the strong hand of the President can prevent the general disarray scattered about by the growing disarray for tradition and sentiment shown by the general sections of the country last fall.
Even the Negro Press is showing its fangs, if that is a good word to use in relation to the discussion of the APPE-AMERICAN pays emphatically "Vote for Democracies" other initiatives, including "the detact", but much of the deploying has the appearance of a campaign to disaffecting the disaffection. The New York AGE presents the interesting spectacle of its chief contributing editorial section, "The New York AGE" heads while its 'threeen on editorial section in standing on the floor of the House to intimidate in the folk lore tale in which the Crocodile payed the leading role. The Republican National Committee accorded by the PITTSBURGH WHIP comes out into the Baltimore contemporary while the great DEPENDER deplores the present situation. Altogether, the APPE-AMERICAN pays is an interested observer, is not one whit carry that happened—the last fall
Now where does Governor Smith get into the swimming? Is being asked by the fellows down in the basement. "Why he's for the common people," is the answer generally given in reply. "Are we among the common people?" asks these lovely Negro ones. "Why cert," comes the quick and agitated retort, "Al Smith says so." And there you have it. And there is the cat out of the bag. What Al Smith says goes in New York State among all the classes of the people. This accordance, in some measure, it would appear, for a Negro coming all the way from Virginia to get a "close up" of the man.
What will come finally of all this concern, in the can of the New York hour none can surely tell at this particular time. Your correspondent can but make note of the size in the political sky at this point of time, of one thing all of us can be very certain, the Negroes do not easy in mind. It wants to break something.

In the Ukraine, the secret Jewish army of defense has grown until it now numbers over 500,000 and is the largest country. It is well equipped with rifles, munitions and machine guns. Branches of it exist in every city of Ukraine, and in the Jewish population, and as a result, the Jehovah no longer cover before the activities of the Whites or Faselati Kux Kurts with which the rebellion is now powering those in power of those in Russia most distant from the Communist center of government, Moscow. In the case to 50 is enrolled. The younger members number at least 100,000. The organization of the Jewish army is by the recurrence of porrows in the wake of Denikin, Poutra and other anti-Communist leaders who were trying to bring back the overbroken Caracas.
The Jewish army is often in action against the enemies of its race, and the enemy has been crushed by the Soviets and who are now to be found only in guerrilla bands that haunt the country, and the pengants. These bandit bands have often met defeat at the hands of the Jewish army. In a town called Krasnaya Polyana, the Jewish Army, well armed, engaged in guerilla warfare with a band of several hundred. The Jewish army is overwhelmed by overwhelming defeat for the latter and the victorious entry into the town of Krasnaya Polyana. In a town of Jewish population this army, although refraining from taking up governmental control or in any way maneuvering, is now under a supreme force. The Jewish Army is ready to fight to the end, and the enemy, of people whom there are 5,000,000 in Russia. Under Communist rule, the Jews do not find it necessary to attack the Whites but wherever the Whites are in control or the community disconnected with Moscow for some reason or

Uncle Tom was the only Negro in the town who ever present was white.

USED ODD WEDDING COACHES
Steam Plow, Traction Engine, Trancar, and Other Vehicles Have Transported Bridal Parties.
An American bridal company who made his journey to the altar in a steam plow has had many rivals in matrimony. It is not long since a bridal couple and their guests made a dramatic appearance in a Kentish village on a hill. The guests drove trucks geysered with flags, flowers and evergreens, says London Ambers. The wedding party drove up to St Mark's church, Nirmingham, one Easter Sunday in mourning, the coaches and the horses being incongruously adorned with wrist coats. A pearl necklace and a vehicle of the Welderhampton bridal party, the driver and conductor wearing white gloves and smart buttons, were being heralded by the explosion of fog signals.
But perhaps the most novel journey of the couple, whose wedding procession slid down a steep hill from the bride's home to Payshack church on seven boots decorated with pine branches

It is a spirit that exaltes humanity, and imbued with it the souls of men sear into the pure air of unselfless devotion to the public welfare.
