HIRAM JOHNSON AGAIN SPEAKS OUT ON SOUTHERN REPRESENTATION Cleveland, Ohio. Jan. 12—(A. N. P.)—Senator Hiram Johnson, a candidate for the 1st of the 2nd and 3rd consecutive elections of the United States, seems determined to make "Southern representation in the Republican National Convention," one of his chief issues in the fight for the nomination. While it is claimed by the众s of the Senate that his fight is "sectional," it is not clear "nevertheless many of the voters of color who had calculated on turning their eyes towards the "Golden Gate," are somewhat mystified. The Senator is reported to have said to conferees that what he desires is to "See the delegates and patronage if elected President, he will appoint go where the votes count," and that, a Northern Colored men to federal office, he will vote in the future, made no statement on cutting down Southern representation in Congress, but this is his Cleveland statement on cutting in conventions; "The selection of a president begins with the apportionment of delegates to a national convention. Just as pollution at the source of a stream will pollute the whole stream, wrong and injustice in the selection of delegates to a national convention will permeate and taint the very convention itself." The selection of delegates from certain of the southern states has been made for the purpose of creating so many scandals that finally the Republican national convention in 1920 passed a resolution commanding within a year the Republican National committee to adopt a just and equitable basis, of representation in future national conventions. The national committee obeyed and within the year acted, and while its action did not constitute a "contest," the众s of the House were nevertheless, it reduced the delegates in southern states where there is no Republican party. --- The Dallas Express studies of African affairs.

N. P.)—The 16th Annual Convention of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity held here last week was one of the most successful in the history of the organization, December 31st, 1923, where more than 600 college men from 66 of America's best educational institutions gathered to discuss means by which the problems in Negro racial life may be met. Negro college men from all sections of the country were present at the convention the sections represented stretching from Mass., on the New England coast to California on the Pacific and from Minnesota to Ga.

The young artist, who is at present studying with Gulspe Boghetti, rose to the occasion of her opportunity, and, with musicianly sensibility and a voice of quality far above the average, rendered a number of outstanding selections. First, she offered "O Mio Fernando," from Donizetti's "Favorita." Then she sang two Negro spirituals, "My Lord, What a Morin'," and "Heaven." Delivering the Donizetti air with telling fervor and dramatic emphasis, she passed to the more congenial field of the racial songs in which she was thoroughly at home. These naive ballards she gave in a way that reached and stirred the hearts of all who heard her luscious and resonant voice, with a driving power of art and temperament behind it. The applause, when she finished, came like a sudden blast of gun-fire, and continued through so many recalls that it seemed as if a rule must be broken and an encore granted. tem I challenge in this campaign.

J., Jan. 12—According to the plane of the Fitzgerald Hotel and Development Co., this city, famous as America's leading seaside resort, will soon boast of the largest, most beautiful and modern hotel in the entire world for the accommodation of Colored people. The architects, Messara, McLanahan and Bencker, designers of the Hotel Traymore, M. E. Blutt department store, the Equitable Trust Company Building, and many other structures of national note, have provided everything that a modern hotel calls for. Mr. McLanahan stated that, having never done anything like it before, he had given the matter careful study and had produced something that would ever be a monument to the economic advancement of the Colored people. The hostelery is to be known as "The Hotel Fitzgerald." The hotel is owned, the hotel will have 200 bedrooms, single and en suite, all with baths and telephone connections; an American dining room and cafe, with grille; barber shop, beauty parlors, curative baths, pool and billard room, ladies' parlor, lobby, smoking room, and exchange. On the top floor of the South wing there will be a large, large, large-scale room, which small conventions may assemble. A special feature of the hotel will be the "Vacation Club" of stockholders, for which special provision will be made in the rooms on the top of what will be known as the north wing of the hotel. Members for this club are being recruited from the management of stockholders from all over the country. One hundred such memberships have been allotted to Atlantic City. A campaign has been launched to put over the project by January 1st to ensure that the white people of the city are willing to give financial assistance and an encouragement to the effort of the city to advance themselves. Out of town people, who are in the habit of visiting the city, will relocate to the prospect of being able to secure first-class living accommodations in the future.

Thousands of signatures are still on their way in the malls. Among others, the Northern California and Los Angeles Branches of the N. A. A. C.

Alexander Figure Ends in Victory For Dr. Cannon, Prominent Political Leader and Outspoken Advocate of Keener Politics For Race By R. T. Lockett. Atlantic City, N. J., Jan. 12—(A. N. P.) Following sensational charges in which he claimed that Former-Assemblyman Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N. M. was "double-crossed" when Dr. George E. Cann non state leader, was placed on the State Republican Committee's slate as a candidate for election a the April primaries as one of the Big Seven delegates-at-large to the Republican National Convention to be held in Cleveland, J. E. Sadler, secretary of the Colored Republican Conference of New Jersey, has acknowledged the wisdom of the choice of Dr. Cannon and has fallen in line and will, along with the regular state organization, "make a determined effort to win for each of the candidates named an overwhelming success at the polla." Just what changed Sadler's attitude in the matter has not been ascertained but it followed a denial by State Organiser W. P. Burrell of Newark in which he offered irrefutable facts to show that there was nothing underhanded in the proceedings. Burrell pointed out that Alexander had been endorsed by the State organization of which he, (Cannon) is president for a place on the Big Six as alternate. Several weeks later Cannon and other DOCTORS TO BLACKLIST NEGLIGENT PATIENTS (Lincoln News Service) Washington, D. C. Jan. 12—The possibility of Washington physicians establishing a "black list," composed of patients who they consider able to pay, but who steadily refuse to, is imminent. It has been proposed that once every three months physicians would send in to a central bureau the names of those patients who have refused to pay for their medical care on file and whenever a physician received a call to new patients he would call the bureau and find out their status. It is claimed that such a bureau has been found to work satisfactorily in Chicago. The local hospitals have no desire to list the names of poor people who can be treated with the drugs they want their money in luxuries and then refuse to pay for medical services rendered. on Medical Education of the American Medical Association is considered one of the outstanding achievements by the board during this quadrennium, although it has negotiated deals which involve the acquisition of thousands of dollars worth of property, such as the purchase of Haven Institute, Mordant, Mistake, and Daytona Florida Normal and Industrial Institute at a cost of $151,000; the transfer of old Warden College to the Daytona Florida Normal and Industrial College which facilitates the expansion program of that college in keeping with its newly acquired site; and the creation of a new site for Warden College. However, the board is producer of none of its achievements than of the old Warden College, which has been able to stimulate at Wiley College, Marshall, Texas. The report has this to say about the success of the successful college of the system. The plant consists of fifty-three acres with a total of including teachers. A CHAMPION OF JUSTICE A MESSENGER OF HOPE fluent leaders had a conference in Washington with the leaders of the Republican National Committee which resulted in the restoration of Southern representation, thus giving each state that went for Hardesty a seat in the House. When it became known that through the effort of Cannon and his committee seven delegates had been secured for New Jersey in securing the seat, the delegates that this seventh place be given to Dr. Cannon, the one most instrumental in New Jersey in securing the seat, both names appeared and were voted on. Cannon came and the delegates from the later, both names appeared and were voted on. Cannon came and the delegates from the later, both names appeared and were voted on. Dr. Alexander was elected as an alternate. "This somewhat paved Saddie but he has done the work from the following statement which he sent to each member of the State Committee of which Ex-Governor E. Warren was a member of that the big thing now is to put the whole state over with a big "The officers and members of the Republican State Conference of New Jersey" say Saddie, "wish the state be more collectively the deep appreciation and gratitude of the Colored citizens of New Jersey, regardless of their race." G. O. P. ON TRIAL SAYS JAMES W. JOHNSON IN TRIBUNE New York, N. Y. J. Jan. 12-James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in a letter published in the New York Tribune of December 23, asserts that Negroes are less interested in Republican party affairs and politically active voters than national issues affecting the race. Mr. Johnson's letter was written in reply to a dispatch of the Tribune's Washington correspondent. Mr. Regarding Negro Voters To the pastor or the街道负责人, Mr. Mark Sullivan, in his dispatch of December 12 on the restoration of Southern delegates to the Republican convention makes one assumption which seems to me to take in a little too much territory. He says the Republicans recently restored the Southern delegates because of the vote of the Northern Negroes. As a matter of fact, Negroes today are not the same as the greatly concerned about whether there are two Republican delegates from South Carolina or twenty. They are concerned, however, about the Congressional representation of Southern states on the basis not of votes, but of population, thus giving states in which Negroes are disfranchised undue political strength in the congression. In the national convention is a purely Republican party affair. Southern representatives in Congress involves flagrant violation of the Constitution and is a matter of national concern. On the issue of delegates to the Republican National Convention few, if any, votes of Northern Negroes will be affected. But votes will definitely be affected by the Republican party's stand or its fall. The American Party has been at the Klux Klan and by its attitude toward the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Negroes throughout the country are becoming less and less interested in appointments of individuals to office, though they maintain the right of Colored citizens to participate in the administration of government and to be given opportunity to serve their country. In this case, they are becoming more and more interested in straightforward handling of vital national issues directly affecting their welfare as a group.

Several of his cabinet members seceded. The full sympathy, with the dialectal movement. The wavering of the administration was pitiful to say, the On February 10th President-elect Lincoln left his home in Springfield and started with his wife and three children. He and his wife and three children route large crowds assembled and Lincoln talked to the people. Principal addresses were made at Indianaapolis and Philadelphia. The text of the speeches was that the new administration did not intend interfering with slavery in the state. The state existed but would do its utmost to protect and maintain the Union. The government did not intend making war against the state. President-elect said, but would take the steps necessary to recover the government property which had been seized by the state. **Plot to Kill Lincoln** A plot to associate the President-elect on route to Washington was discovered and to frustrate this be made the trip from Harrington through Bailie. In the meantime, the Second session of the Thirty-Sixth Congress which had convened December 2, 1860, had devoted its time without avail to framing a compromise that might be acceptable to the Unionist and the disloyal states. But it was all in vain. The slaveocracy knew that year by year its power relatively was diminishing and that its only chance for permanency lay in secession. President Buchanan had disappointed friends and foes alike by his vacillating message to this Congress. He defied that the right of secession was constitutional and said that the Federal property in the south ought to be legal right to coerce a state, that no state could legally be compelled to remain in the Union against its will. In other words he maintained that it was unlawful for the South to secede but also unlawful to keep it from doing so if it desired. Many passionate addresses were made in the Senate both for and against secession. The greatest speech made in the defense of the Union was perhaps that of Senator Seward who was to be Lincoln's Secretary of State. He said: "Heyland a doubt Union is vitally important to the Republican citizens of the United States, and a doubt is very important to the whole people. Republicanism and Union are, therefore, not subordinate to Union, and everything else is and ought to be—Republicanism, Democracy, every other political name in the United States, and every other they ought to disappear in the presence of the great question, of Union." President Lincoln's inaugural address delivered March 4, 1861, closed with this solemn appeal to the people of the South to halt in their plan of assassination. "In your hands, my disasagittated fellow countrymen, and not in mines, in the South, but in the North, Government will not assail you. You can have no conflict without being in danger, and you cannot be registered in Heaven to destroy the government, while I have the most solen one to 'preserve, protect and de- "I am loath to close.

MEMBER OF * FIRST IN SERVICE According to an Associated Press dispatch, the leasing of convicts to private interests became unlawful in Florida after December 31st under provision of the law enacted by the state, which also abolished the lash in convict camps in that state. MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. Passage of this act was the outgrowth of a legislative investigation of the death in a lumber camp of Martin Tabert, North Dakota white boy who had been arrested, farmed out by the sheriff of Leon County and beaten to death. Published every Saturday Morning the DALLAS EXPRESS PUBLISHING CO. Incorporated DALLAS WALKER The same practice is to be abolished in Alabama where investigations have disclosed a condition equally as shocking. The law in Florida makes the progress of that state toward civilization. Martin Tabert, the white youth, though a martyr to a brutal system born of a culture in savagery which had its beginnings in slavery days and which through years of cultivation in the mistreatment of Negroes has grown into a national disgrace, has awakened Florida and the nation to a sense of its own unworthiness to lay claim to culture. His death, though unfortunate, has not been in vain. Foreign Advertising Representative: W. B. 21f Company, South Dearborn, boree, Illinois. W. B. 21f Company, 64 Morners Blag, 136 N. Broad Street, New York. N. Y. K. How many defenseless Negroes and other whites, for that matter, had been done to death in those swamp camps cannot be determined. But the scattered evidences of the brutality, which for years has characterized these places, that investigation of this case brought to light, gives reason for the belief that they have been many. But for the belief that they have been many, the lack of claim on attention of decent relatives the only system would perhaps have gone on indefinitely.

They make lies of its most widely heralded adherence to better things and innate culture. They like lynching proclaim to the world that the culture of our Southland is the kind of crown off *at will*. No subscriptions mailed for a period less than three months. Payment for same must be 75 cents. Why cannot the whole South, like Florida, but not at the bidding of such a circumstance as that which forced her, take upon itself the task of purging her prison systems of the inquisitive practice of convict leasing which makes room available? Notice To The Public Any erroneous reflection upon the character, standing or reputation of a person, which may appear in the columns of a book, may be corrected upon it being clearly corrected upon it being It is to the credit of Florida that her legislators com- morously attacked the problem and abolished the practice. Florida is better for it. Has more respect for herself, commands more respect from her neighbors by reason of her action. And is by far more fit for habitat than ever before. And her Negro citizens are by far the greatest beneficiaries by this action for it is true that they have suffered most by reason of its existence. THE DALLAS EXPRESS has wunner holested the white feather, wutherer has it been disfigured by the yellow streak. It is not afflicted with the floral mouth. It is a plain, every day, sensible, conservation awareness bracelet. The passing breasts; it lunes with the double flag: It professes a patriotism as broad as our country. Its love of cown-handed justice covers all the territory occupied by the human race. This is pretty high ground, a place of great beauty. Rays of the pier come up and stand with us. This ground is faint. And in this same connection it may be observed that there is ample proof of the old proverb which declares that "whatsoever a man sooth, that shall he also reap." Mistreatment of Negroes, as such would never have caused the enactment of this law. But human psychology is so adaptional and sometimes formidable that for fear at all times. Hence eventually it happened in Florida, as it is happening everywhere brutality to the "underdog" has become a habit, that brutality to Negroes paved the way step by step to brutality to white men and this correction of it by a law. As with prison cruelty so with lynching. Mob mind has become habitual. From the lynching of Negro men and women the step is short to the lynching of white men—indirectly any person who may happen to incur the anger of the mob. PROGRESS IN CO- OPERATION PROGRESS IN CO- OPERATION Convict leasing abolished in Florida! And the contemplation of how it should happen strengthen the belief of all of us in the fact that Time and the progress of human events eventually bring the desired changes. Elsewhere in this issue we print the December report of Mia Fink, the first female nurse for Negroes who she speaks of the progress of her work due to the more active assistance of minors and others. She reports the case of a leading minister who spoke of the need for insurance man who notified her of suspicions cases; and of teachers who helped in the organization of insurance man. The scope of her work has been increased and it may be expected that the report of her help of that character is accorded her by leaders of our people. Sometimes we ought to pity ourselves for our woofy waste of time and the useless expenditure of effort in verbal hopings and wishes for the day when our economic future will be assured, when we, as others will have taken our "place in the sum." Pity is due for; all of these things and even more will be ours when instead of wishing only, we will be urgently to the task of working for what we earnestly desire. To wish for that which we can get for ourselves is foolish. We condemn it in others, why not in ourselves? No favorite orator can occupy our platforms without referring to our boys and girls who need dignified employment. No one of us can discuss the plight of the race to which we belong without bemoaning its unhappy lot and the fact that we cannot change us miraculously into what we desire to be. The Express is pleased beyond message with this circumstance and it believes that every individual has helped in this particularly important work, has increased time that he has performed a real public service. Dallas is in need of just such伸展 man-made Wishing, it is true, must exist before effort to obtain the thing wished for. But wishing must not be the end. In our economic life especially does this hold true. Negroes in America can have, can control, can bring into existence in the next twelve months all of the economic projects for which they wish if they stink wishing and begin working. This help to the Tuberculosis Clinic and the speed with which its effect has become apparent is that it will be expected in the case of other agencies which hold possibilities of much good for our public but which are not available to all of our combined agencies which is needed to make them as powerful as they should be. It will come in the near future, our group in Dallas must develop to the extent that the full weight of our agencies for good can be thrown behind deserving projects for our advancement and those projects pushed to a successful culmina- With these things true what in an economic way can we hope for, which, with the exertion of the right sort of energy, we cannot obtain? Our million could capitalize the necessities that the world could by us for the necessities of life could be made to give employment to our children and benefit to ourselves. Why should we wish? Again let us answer that we are to be pitted by ourselves and others. We have the means of life, but we are not to be pitted by them, but we lack the skill to work for it until it has been obtained. A new term coined and made popular by our fellow townman Sutton E. Griggs, aptly defies the stereotype of a doctor where needs. He calls it "collective efficiency" It has in a small degree, been evidenced by the success of Clinic and it will be evidenced in ever increasing degree as the disposition to help deserving and serviceable agencies grows among the population. In any contest between the Wisher and the Worker, it is always the Worker who wins. THE COMING SANHEDRIN THE COMING SANHEDRIN That disposition must grow. It must increase. It must make a difference. It must consistently in our group life if we hope to come to that point of efficiency which allows for the best possible outcome for much needed institutions among us. The Express hopes that these leaders who have in the past month to work on the progress of the Tuberculosis nurse more successful will continue to an even greater degree. The nurses' duty in this regard and it also expresses the belief that a consistent application to such a group will ultimately the advantage of an enlarging the scope of their inter- "The Negro Sanhedrin will not be a mass meeting, but a conference of organizations, supplemented by a minority of distinguished individuals representatives at large from different parts of the country and from the different walks and ranks of life.

No segmentary organization can do this. Neither can any body that is composed solely of individual responsibilities. The thoughts, the hopes, the prayers of the entire race are desired to focus on the Sanhedrin session in Chicago, that it may measure up to the requirements of the occasion, at such ominous time as this. It is pitifully true that the race is already overburdened with organizations. They rise and flourish and fade as the leaves on the tree; and yet we are not saved. Half of our energies are wasted by rivalry, jealousy, duplication of function and overlapping of work. The crying need is for some harmonizing medium that can reduce these fractional agencies to a common denominator. There must be a clearing house through which can be pooled all of the interests which are involved in the Negro Sanhedrin is not so much an organization as an influence. It is rather a union of organizations which can speak with the consent and authority of them all." The success which attends this effort will mark the ability of the race to unite—to work as a unit for the solution of its own problems. There can be no doubt that the eyes of all of us are turned toward this gathering and the best wishes of all of us are directed toward its success. It will prove us progressive or undeveloped to the needed extent. A test which will be no means be unprofitable. EASING STOPPED IN FLORIDA.

Where's the whoring begins. In these "silver" days most everybody has a car or a Ford and understand and understand, "car talk." Now-a-days people are more sensitive about the condition and performance of their physical defects. You insult a man when you tell him his car rattles like a hailstorm on a tin roof, and shows many evidence of mechanical failure. You carburator needs adjustment and shows many evidence of mechanical failure. You usually think you are "kidding" him when you tell him he is losing flesh, has a cough, poor color and texture. Every one who has a car wants it to last and perform perfectly as long as possible and he is willing to work with you to attain the attainment of this end. Almost every one wants to live to a ripe old age and be counted among the winners. But how. You don't give their bodies the care they give their lives and good advice goes by unbeeded.

Winton-Salem, North Carolina, January 12—Good by 1923, and good morning 1924. One we must bid welcome, and we must bid welcome, yet we know not what it may have in store for us. We have started on this year, and have turned volunteered. We have joined you, and hope that we may be able to see some of it carried out. The year which has just carried wheeled and some time has been called upon, time and time again to remind you of the shortness of life and the surety of death, by the departure of some not- less than 100 business enterprises have been launched, and some have failed, and this is all apart of life's Stop and think of some of those who were with us in 1923, when the new year was unabashed in. They had books and leaf and wrote their resolutions there on, but death knelt at their hands and had to fold their arms and answer the summon ready or no ready. Some of our most noted men and women are ingering. Death went into the huts, into the mansions, into the rooms, into the news, into the news, in the school houses — in fact he has not drawn the line anywhere. Way out in California, it hurts, and he has to go, would not permit him to get back to Washing-ton to outfare there, and then it found Rev. J. H. Van Lance, from Kansas and J. M. Harward, from Baptist preachers, and then it looked like at one time it was going to lift me out of myself and let me go to the golden gates, through which our lamented president went, but then they are today ready and willing to do the Master's bidding. I am living closer to the throne than ever before. Then when we look into the business world, we find one of the business men of our race, a genius, Hon. Charles Banks, in the midst of a busy life, had to drop everything and go into to come out no more. Then there was Bishop Charles Spencer Smith, of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, and he crossed over into the other world, and we shall ever miss the sweet singer and worker, Dr. B. F. Watson. I have not tried to give these in their order and many others including Hon. Phil Brown, who but yesterday, so to speak had to go in come out no more. Just put it down that many people died last year that never died before and will never die again, but have left the rest for others who are to follow in this year. Are you ready? There was a big wedding down in Florida, Cookman Institute married the Florida Normal and Industrial Institute for girls under Mrs. Mary Mary McLeod Bethune, and Mrs. Bethune was made the head of the two united bodies, and she is now building up one of the greatest co-educational institutions in the whole south. She is a great woman doing a great work, and I am proud of her. I want you to look back over the past year and see if you have accomplished anything. Have you done anything to help distribute any charity? Have you done anything to make a human being happy? Search your life and see what you have done, and if you have done anything for the health and strength. have the carbon burned out ever so often, and do the many things necessary to keep your car in good running order. Why not give yourself the same care? Do you think more of your car than yourself? Are you as good as your car? (Please note return to text). Now I am going to ask you about your forty years of age, you should go see your doctor once a year for a physical examination, purchase over forty you should seek the advice of your physician at least two years a year. It doesn't matter how old you are, best for you, your family and those who are dependent upon you to love you, to have a physical inventory of your car, you have not "hitting on" all cylinders, your spark plugs may be worn, you have not "hitting on" justment to keep you from burning too much gas and getting low mileage. It might be well to get rid of the bots tightened up, down. It costs a whole lot more to put the old car in the shop for a long stay than buying a new expert. If you are wise you will take the hint, but if you are not wise or in other words hard or inflexible, Yet your car is a wonderful piece of machinery or a wonderful bit of machine. You give it to me, you give it to me. But your body is still more wonderful than any car ever built. You can get it from going to the scrap heap, yet you must give it a chance, for when it goes it has a hard talk of being. You don't want to be junked and put upon the scrap heap, held up your hands with your doctor once a year, and if over forty go to at least twice a year and make him tell you the story. for for the prosperity which the Lord hath given to you? When 1922, came in, Dr. E. P. Jones, was in his glory. He was the biggest rooster in the barnyard, but last September he lost his strut, and now he is once more mingling with the humble, and it will not be long before he will have established some fraternal institution, and the rest you will know. He is just bound to be at the head of something and he would have had him another; the Baptist convention, if he could have found men and women enough to follow him. I have been going some and will go some more before I am through with it. I am not going as fast as before, because Dr. George C. Hall and the doctors out in California are still telling me to slow down and many are the invitations from friends inviting me to come and dwell with them. Now I come to face 1924, and I do not know what may be for me, and that is not the thing that is to claim my attention. For I have resolved to live closer and closer to the throne. I am going to get nearer God, so that if the summon should come I will be able to fold my arms and say "Come welcome death. I will gladly go with thee to the other world, for it will be dear death changing worlds." I have traveled to make friends with white folk and all other, to live in peace and harmony with all mankind, and follow the Golden Rule to the letter. As I would other should do unto me I will do even also unto them, and I am not going to do anything to offend my brother, but will be ever ready to do him a kind act. I am going to do good for evil, and I do not intend to knock the devil out of any human being, but will pray hell out of them. I am going to be found constantly on my knees in touch with God and His Christ. I am not going to say any cuss words, although I may get the devil in me. "Father forgive them" will be my future prayer. I am going to encourage young people to be something, and I am going to hit now and then the modern hell holes, and believe me I may get on some one big feet, but they must draw them up and look wise and at the same time mind their ways. I am going to church every opportunity, and I intend to take some part in the services from time to time. I have resolved to increase the salary of my private secretary or fire her. One or the other must be done and that right now. With all these things before me, I feel that you are now willing to meet me, and I will come what may, we will be prepared for it. You must get your heart with God, and do so right now. You must be prepared to meet you in the Great Beyond. Here I am this week writing to you from North Carolina. I spent the day meeting a great Christmas for me. The Sunday before Christmas I spoke in the morning at Olive Baptist Church, a crowded there, although it was raining that were forced to have an overflow meeting and Dr. K. W. Willis, who had made the remarks in the main auditorium, and I tried my hand. Well, it it was a fine meeting and I am not prepared to make any comment on the church so just, and will not do so, for reasons I know about it in the future. I am not going to have too much to say about it now. I will stay in Chicago, and (Continued on page 8). Texas Towns Atheas—Dr. J. H. Lynn held his 1st quarterly conference at the A.M. E.
