SCOTT IN THE U. S. WAR DEPARTMEN.T Notable Work Done by this Famous Colored American WOODROW WILSON. President of the United States, an Apostle of "Making the World Safe for Democracy," a member of The League of Nations. November 1st marked the end of the first year of Emmett J. Scott as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. For the first time since the foundation of the American Republic, the Negro people, just fifty years out of bondage, have enjoyed the proud distinction of having in the federal government at Washington a representative whose functions approximated that of a member of the Presidential Cabinet. Now that one year of Mr. Scott's "administration" has been brought to a close, and with it has come the approach of a finish of the world-wide war which made his assignment possible, it is fitting that stock should be taken and the President of World Safe Nations. books balanced, to the end that the race, as it nears the new era of re-construction, may determine its present status and make note of the gains that may be placed to its credit. WHAT THE YEAR'S RECORD ACTUALLY SHOWS. To give_with any attempt at detail, the activities and achievements of the office of Emmett J. Scott would require far more space than the "column or so" into which I have been asked to condense this story. In br. fr. paragraphic form, however—leaving comment and description to the imagination of the reader—some of the principal things in connection with which the influence of the office has been helpful, and in connection with which it has co-operated with other agencies, may be mentioned: HOW THE OFFICE OF "SPECIAL ASSISTANTS" MAKES INTO BEING The office of Emmett J. Scott as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War was created because of the recognized importance and weight of the Negro in the national equation, and because of the broad-minded view of the Hon. Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War, that the problems growing out of the relations of the 12,000,000 colored people of the country in a period of war, with new conditions and new demands to be met and adjusted, could best be solved by calling to his side as advisor and counsellor an acknowledged expert on the peculiar situation that the race question presented. That the office, with its increasing volume of responsibilities and broadening scope of activities, is rendering exerted by the laudatory contacting attested by the laudatory contacting the hands of the press of the country and the warm personal congratulations received by Mr. Scott by telegram, letter, and word of mouth every day in the year, as well as by the grateful acknowledgements of hundreds of persons in all parts of the land who have been faithfully and efficiently served through the ```markdown ``` official channels covered by this bureau. It is a veritable "clearing house" for Negro problems, military and civil, and it is universally admitted that the condition of the race, in and out of the Army, has been maintained. The establishment of this direct point of contact between the Negro and every branch of the War Department. For eighteen years Mr. Scott was the confidential secretary and right hand man of the late Booker T. Washington and has had intimate association with the most influential forces of the nation, white and black. The widest and valuable (Continued on Page 7.) WOODROW WILSON, of the United States, an Apostle of safe for Democracy," a member of T "GO YE ALSO INTO MY VINEYARD AND WHATSOEVER IS RIGHT, THAT SHALL YOU RECEIVE. No greater enunciation was ever proclaimed by our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ that was commendable to the uplift of labor than when he stated, "Go ye also into my vineyard and whatsoever is right, that shall you receive." The business and manufacturing concerns of Nashville have so to speak, kept an open door to all classes of labor, and the capital of Tennessee, the educational center of the South is an exponent of these principles, made so by the ever present opportunity offered to the laboring people to make Nashville their home. The dignity of labor has been the bulwark of Nashville stock in trade. The largest part of this as an asset has been held and is still being held by the Negro who lives in this county or who finds his way here seeking honorable and profitable employment. One characteristic about the citizenship as pertaining to the colored man in Tennessee has been that he has not had to leave these parts to seek employment that would give him a livelihood that would offer to him a dignified position as a world citizen, whether it be in the mill, in the shop, in the pick and shovel, on the railroads, in the factory, in the office with a broom in the educational field, in the commercial world. It has ever been thus in Nashville. The honor and the dignity of labor has been upheld as long as the older citizens' memory goes back. Nashville's particular argument and greatest asset in th eeyes of the world seems to have ben that it offered to the laboring man the glad hand. Labor is taught in the workshop, in the school room; labor is preached from the pulpit, is practiced by the house wife. Labor has been one of Nashville's greatest assets. what a people earn by their labor, what they save, what they save, what they have been able to do in community in which they live has always been the best argu ment for thrift and economy in the eyes of the world. Hence the pride and the boast of the citizens of Nashville that they have obeyed the admonition in its every sense and that they have gone out into the vineyard to work, is justified by the great command of God in the hub of the South. The busy whirl of the wheels in the factories, the open shop of the artisan, the scores of large wholesale and retail stores that make up the city, the scores of churches whose doors stand open and ajar, the best railroad lines that enter into the city, the public school system, the college and universities, in fact the life of Nashville points to the dignity of labor, and of "Making the The League of offers that opportunity unsurpassed in any city of twice its size in the United States. The laboring man of Nashville enjoys every advantage that is given to any other man, his children are given the opportunity of the free schools, with the text books as provided, the colleges and all their advantages, and best of all, he is offered citizenship in what has been regarded as the best town in Dixie. The workshops of Nashville have not been the sweatshirts as referred to time and again in other cities, rather the clothes of the industry is offering to every man equal opportunity for his livelihood. Working in Nashville and working for Nashville represent one and the same thing. So it has been it will be, unless the needle is pointed the wrong way and refuses to be true to the pole. REV. GEO SNEED IN CANADA. Among the Baptist representatives doing splendid work in Canada is Ruth W. Shee in noincorporated Edmonton. She writes it is in sympathy with the /unincorporated side of the National Baptist Convention and that he hopes to beable to make a great showing with the people out in the north and west and there are a number of Baptists in that section of the country who have not had representation in any convention for sometime.

Headquarters, Riggs Building Wash- ington, D. C. As a result of the campaign that ended November 5th, the Republican Party has been entrusted with control of both branches of the next Congress. It now appears certain that our majority in the House will be at least forty-five and in the Senate two. Certain contests prompted by partisan considerations threaten our control of the Senate, but in view of the unmistakable verdict pronounced by the voters, it seems incredible that these partisan efforts will be permitted to thwart the clearly apparent will of the people. While the responsibilities that thus come to us are exceedingly great, they are welcomed because our opportunities for beneficial service to the country are equally great. A united party, its servants imbued with but one purpose,—to so meet these responsibilities as to merit the approval of the country and future generations,—we are equipped to succeed and will succeed. Most appreciative of the support given us, and believing it will prove of interest to Republicans generally, especially our contributors to know how the funds entrusted to us were expended in the campaign, the following is respectfully submitted: Headquarters, salaries, supplies, rent, etc. $4,995.28. Postage, telephone and telegraph, $4,000.32. Collection of funds, salaries, supplies and equipment for same, $9,755.03 Transportation, $291.99. Woman's Organization, $1,299.20. Publicity, research work, speakers' expenses, printing and distribution of campaign literature, $16,587.46. NUMBER 6 P. JONES, on, Ill. National Baptist Convention corporated) Organization and educational work in states and congressional districts, $142,824.74. It will be noted that practically all of the funds expended were directly employed in obtaining favorable results in the states and districts selected by the Committee as fertile ground for our efforts. A purpose to avoid fruitless expenditures of energy and funds prompted early in the campaign a most careful survey of conditions in all the states, was then determined by the Committee far as the House of Representatives can was, that assistance for organization and educational work should be given the local committee in sixty districts represented by members of our Party in the present Congress, and in forty-nine districts now represented by members of the Democratic Party, all with a view to holding the districts now represented by Republicans and gaining those now represented by Democrats. It is pleasing to be able to report that in these districts to which our efforts were especially directed, we held fifty-six of the sixty districts now represented by Republicans, and succeeded in displacing Democrats by Republicans in thirty-seven districts. While this Committee assisted to the states where of its ability, in all the states where no wages were waged for the election of Republicans to the Senate, for the superb results accomplished full credit is due the Republican Senatorial Advisory Committee, and the efficient manner in which its efforts were prosecuted. The Party is indebted to the officers and members of the state organizations, and the thousands of party workers in each and every state in the Union. The success obtained was (Continued on page 7.)

Quite a few advanced departments have been added to the school—this material increases the scope as well as broadens its responsibilities. INDUSTRIAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE COLORED MAN IN NASHVILLE, UNSURPASSED BY ANY OTHER CITY No phase of the reconstruction program is of more vital importance to the nation than that which central labor movement necessitated by there are two somewhat distinct elements in the problem as a whole that are very closely related. One has to do with the replacement of the soldiers into the great industrial machinery of the nation from which they were suddenly taken by the operation of the draft law, and the other has to do with the readjustment of the genius of the nation, and the closing of many great government plants and other industries that were engaged upon war contracts. When we speak of industry under our caption, the notion is prevalent that the reference is made so manual and menial labor of our specific character, to be done by the untutored and illiterate. But such a definition does not do credit to the most cosmopolitan in character and today the most universal and popular interest claiming the attention of the master minds of the world as well as the serious thought of the great army of working people, whose dependents out number them, three to one, that during the last four years of war, bloodshed and confusion on the most gigantic scale that time has ever reported to the great Judge of Eternity, that no interest has been husbanded with as much or greater sympathy and devotion, as has that of the laboring man and woman. To a very large extent the soldiers who return from France and from training camps will resume their old occupations. Wherever this can be done it will simplify the process of assimilation, although there is still the matter of taking care of the vast army ow women who have taken men's places in so many of the large plants and in offices. It is the rule that employers will welcome the returning soldiers with open arms. The former employee who has left his civilian position to put on the uniform of his country will return to normal life a far better man than he was before. He will probably itself will have built him up practically and the discipline will have improved his mind and character. Of course, thousands of soldiers will have no places waiting for them. To take care of these men will be the exacting duty of the representatives of the federal labor department. While it is true that this great war was waged for a worthy and righteous cause, that of humanity, better understood by the name of Democracy. What is generally termed "common labor," which shifts and drifts upon the winds of industrial exigencies, will oer greater perplexities probably than any other phase of the subject. If the industrial life of the nation is rejuvenated, as most thinking persons believe will be the case, then the government agencies will be able to handle the situation with little friction. The most difficult matter than has been encountered thus far has been the disposition of private institutions to go into the labor employment business. From the standpoint of the government it is a great mistake, although, of course, well meant. There is no other institution in this country so well qualified and equipped to handle the labor situation, to bring men and jobs together, and to minister alike to the needs of working men and employers, as the federal labor bureau. It is understood that the government is about ready to announce plans for the operation of the whole machinery of employment. When these plans are well known perhaps most of the greaterplexities will disappear. At least this is the promise hold out by those best qualified to speak upon the subject. In the meantime it would be the better part of good policy and sound judgement of staff until these plans are known before embarking on the employment schemes of labor and employment that might throw the entire situation into a state of hopeless con fusion. PROBLEMS OF LABOR The A. & I. State Normal School though young in years is doing a great work and is lining a longleaf want not only throughout the length and breadth of the state of Tennessee, but throughout the conines of this country. Students are going from the school teaching the doctrine of good fellowship and showing improved methods of treating Mother Earth and coaxing her to bring forth more bountifully those things for which we as a nation stand most in need. The A. & I. State Normal School indeed offers to the colored youth a splendid opportunity for development in his In spite of all that may be said or done, the truth will ever remain, that the laboring people have gotten their full share of consideration, and justice remains to reward them, fully, for the sacrifices they have made to win a war, that terminated all in their favor. It can be said without a successful contradiction, that labor and the wage-earner are in the ascendancy in the leading nations of the world at this time. This enviable position was not won by strikes and wolk-outs, nor is it the result of argumentes of flowery floods of oratory. We occupy our present status of good wages, kind and considerate treatment at a cost of billions of dollars and the sacrifice of millions of lives. Capital at present does not envy the laborer's wages, nor his comfortable living. But this favorable sentiment, peace and good will can all be changed into antagonism, envy and disturbance, in a very short time, by the imprudent acts of the working man. We have so much at stake not to be cautious and mindful, lest we precipitate a conflict between capital an dlabor. With capital contending and maneuvering in self-defense. Now that the greatest war ever waged in the history of the world has ceased, and civilization has been made safe for Democracy, in the true unbiased interpretation of that word; a re-adjustment of things and conditions must take place. LABOR OUTLOOK OF CITIES. The colored man, more than any other class of laborers, should think soberly, and think more than twice before moving from Nashville to any other city, East, West or North. Each state, city and town will have its own industrial situation with which to grapple. Its own labor problem, to solve and until these are settled, there will be no authentic bid for labor from any place. And those who move without the proper invitation, will simply aggravate the situation and are liable to be regarded and treated as vagrants. Let us suppose there will come an invitation by some agent to go into another city. We would do well to remember the old ad-dage, "A rolling stone gathers no moss." NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY DECEMBER 6. 1918. NASHVILLE'S BID TO HER LABORERS. We make no reference to the past, but speak of the present when we say, that Nashville, all things being considered, offers more and greater opportunities to the colored man, under greater improved conditions than any other city in the Union. First of all, there are more trades open to the race in Nashville than in any other city. Are yo ua bricklayer? You are not bared from work on the walls of the finest mansions on account of color. Such is not the case. North, East r Wst. There is no discrimination here as to wages or hours. Stone masons find all they can do here when theseason is on here for that kind of work. That season is longer here than elsewhere. Plasterers, carpenters, chauffers, automobilists, lumbermen, all find ready employment at good wages, under congenial management. As to teamsters, the colored men have a monopoly on that line of work. Not so East, North or West. This city thinks much of colored labor. They prove it by giving them the bulk of the work in street building, pipe laying, cart driving, etc. Such is not nor will be the case in other cities. RAILROADING. The colored men get a lion's share of construction and up keep work. It would be surprising to know what per cent he furnishes of the railroad employees who do not belong to the Brotherhood, etc. Such is not the case in other cities, North, East and West. The geographical situation and the proximity to the open doors of Europe, together with the influence of former custom, will prevent such a state or condition from ever becoming permanently established, so as to give the colored laborers the splendid opportunities, such as he now has in Nashville. INDUSTRIAL EMERGENCY IS PASSED. The war created such a demand for man power to produce coal for the transportation of extra tonnage on land and sea. Man power for the manufacture of extra weapons of warfare of numerous kinds, man power for the construction of extra high ways, both at home and in foreign lands, man power for the building of cantonments. So great was the demand for man power, the things which go to make up that power were vigilantly guarded. But the laboring man must not forget that if the war is over, and it looks as if it then this emergency is passed. We were compelled to increase the acreage of our farms, increase the wages of the laborers on the farm. This was done as a patriotic duty as well as for sustenance or profit. Men who were not physically strong were employed at good wages, so as to utilize every bit of man power that was available. This too, was patriotic. In many places women are being used to do the work formerly done by men, this may be regarded as highly patriotic on the part of the women. But now that the war is over, in some cases it will take a long time to convince both the employer and the women that their places should be given to the men. The sensible and industrious colored man, will not leave this city to better his condition. He will not sacrifice his health by the change of climate for health is better than wealth. He will not sacrifice the education of his children, such as he can get in Nashville for a few dollars and for the sake of being addressed as a capitalist. He will not sacrifice his right to buy and own a home in the city that can boast of one of the largest government plants in the world for the sake of a few extra dollars in a city so congested that the mere thought of his buying a home is out of the question, for such is the present conditions in all of the larger cities in the country. As a was measure, many German and alien workmen were forced out of employment and their places given to citizens, some of those citizens were colored. But now the war is over and if we have a league of nations as our President is advocating, and it looks as if we would have such a league. Then it becomes the moral duty of the Eastern, Northern and Western cities to give every man an equal chance to make a living. Those who were once suspected as enemies will be considered with preference because of the great foreign element in those cities. This will be the influence of moral persuasion. Nashville has no such labor situation to master. So the colored workman will find this city offering the greatest and best opportunities of any city in the Union. Stay here where you are a help and can be helped. You will find house rent cheaper here and living expenses in general will be much lower in in the reities. The dull season is now on and in other cities this time of the year hundreds of good men are thrown out of employment and as a result much suffering is experienced. Not so in Nashville. Every honest, industrious man has or can get employment through the winter and receive a living wage, with favorable expectations of better results in the spring. On Eastern, Northern and Western cities if you are unable to keep up your expenses, no one is concerned. If you can't pay your rent you are set out on the street. No one has time to consider your misfortunes; Not so in Nashville. There is always some willing hands to lind and assist an honest laboring colored man. Unlike other cities, Nashville has not time or place for the loafers. Every effort is made to remove stones out of the path of the man who wants to work. In Nashville, you as a colored man, are allowed to choose your own occupation and ask for the kind of work you want. In many other cities you are told by the employers just what kind of work you are allowed to do regardless as to your ability to do some thing else. You are given a chance here to make good at whatever you wish to attempt. No city in the Union the size of Nashville has as many colored business houses and enterprises as has this city. There are more colored professional men and women here than in any other city of its size. You have a chance to have what you want, be what you want to be and do what you want to do. Know when you are doing well. Don't try to make your condition better. ATLANTIC COAL AND ICE CO. The Atlantic Coal and Ice Co., is the largest ice manufacturing company in Nashville, and perhaps the largest in the south. They have more patrons than any ice and coal company in the city. It is one of the many industries in Nashville that gives employment to a very large number of colored men. The congenial spirit of the late Mr. Howe, still finds expression through the present manager, Mr. P. G. Gordon. This spirit was plain during the past summer when the shortage of ice was so keenly felt. The throngs of people both white and colored, men, women and children, who crowded around the city plant on Fourth Avenue, were treated kindly and considerably. During those trying days when the patience of manager and employees were well tested by the many people demanding ice, they were either supplied or turned away kindly. 6 Weeks' Treatment, $' 600 Halt Dressers' Supplies Agents' Club Terms Hair Dressers' Signifies Agents' Club Terms RHODAO COLLEGE Madam Bessie T.

A New York firm Pays a 10 per cent premium for a full week's work. An illinois house offers a 10 per cent premium to every employe who is neither late nor absent for six months, and “docks” a work er 1 per cent of his six months’ pay for each tardiness, 2 per cont for each half-day's absence and 3 per cent for every full day's absence. ‘Th workman does not lose his pre- mium if he {s absent because of ill ness, in general, provided he shows ‘4 phystelan’s certificate. In addition, most plants paying pre- miums provide welfare workers, who follow up absentoes and encourage them and help them to return and stick to for it cooperates with all branches of their jobs, The big United War Work Campaign went “over the top’ ‘in Tennessee in splendid shape.

The constantly aggressive action of par ‘trols, day and night, from the 92nd ‘has Fesulted In many’causaltles to the Gormans and the eapture of many pris oners Each of the places named above has been raided as has also Epley, and patrols from the Division have pene- ‘trated north nearly to the east and west line through Pagny. The Ger ‘mans haye been driven north beyond Frobaut and Voirvoite to Cheminot bridge and in his desperation the Hun is attempting to destroy the Selle Bridge, after having flooded the Seitie, proving conclusively that he regards the Dlaek troops that compose the 92d Division as one he cannot successful ‘ly withstand. West of the Sellie river excellent results have followed the energetic offensive action of this doughty wing of the Allied Army, the Germans losing heavily in killed and wounded and prisoners, In nearly every instance, these raids made by troopers of this Division have ‘been made under the command of colored line officers, ‘This record made by these colored soldiers must of necessity, arouse the greatest enthusiasm back in “The States” and merit the plaudits of the race for the gallant fighting machine, So wonilerful have bee nthe achieve- ments of the 92nd that the Division Commander was impelled to send out 4 bulletin of congratulation, to be read before each unit of the Division, This proud record must forever set at rest the question of colored soldiers fol lowing and fighting under thelr own officers, and it must forever establish the effeieney of colored officers, who have done splendidly under the’ most trying circumstances.

In the recent war the colored race: | have furnished as many men as th | white races have supplied, if the labo Jand fighting units are both counted Jand now that victory has been won | it is bu tfust that the color line whicl | has hampered the progress of the col ored people, should be abolished a 4jonce.

The repeal of all United States laws classing certain Indians as non- citizens, all people of American Indian blood to be immediately recognized as American citizens. 9. The repeal of all laws of the United States, or of any state, in whieh the words colored, African, Afro-Amer- fean, Negro, Mulatio, Indian, Japanese or Chinese are used for the purpose to making discriminations against the people of any race, nationality, class or creed, and the immendiate abroga- tion of any color line restrictions en- forced without warrant of law. 10, The nations comprising the League of Nations to be forbidden’ to fenuet any legislation whieh in any way discriminates against the people of the Caucasian, Mongolian, African, Indian, and Malay races, or ‘against ‘any na- tionality, religious creed or sex. 11, The free immigration of the poo ple of any one country to any other country having membership in the League to be neither denied nor abridged on account of race, national: ity, class, color ereed or sex ‘The adoption of the foregoing rules in the Constitution of the League of Nations would not only mean freedom, equality and democracy: for all mat kind but would be an actual earthly rerlization of the Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man. ‘Trusting Mr, President, that you will as the representative of our great republic, advocate the principles 1 have enumerated, 1 am.

P. Jones. While | Baptists have split heretofore and while there exist several National bodies claiming to be national con- ventions ,such as the Lott Carey, the Western ‘States and Territories and tho National Primitive Convention, not much attention was paid and little stir ereated until the last division came. Last March a commission was held at Memphis mado up of seven from the three largest bodies of Bap- tists, but 1t seems that neither branch of the Negro conventions adopted tho reports of the commission. Just What will be done at Nashviile nono of the Baptists family seam to be will: jing to forecast. There are those among them who claim peace and har- “money already reign in the various “bodies, and judging from thelr sever- |al reports it appears since the divi | sion, both have been able to do larger work than was ever reported in the | combined national body, ‘The unincorporated people are hold: | ing up the great work already accom: plished and the splendid move made | in the putrehase of the Boseobel Col | lene elte here as theological anc | training sominary. ‘They are jubilant lover the fact that their conyentior | named a trusteo board and the proper |ty has already been conveyed to. the | trustees, and that a summer school | the first of its kind, national in char acter for the training of ministers was held in the buildings during thi | past summer. They are pointing te | the great work done under thei Foreign Mission Board and the per fect organization of the Woman's Con Yention as an auxiliary to thelr body ‘They are claiming inerease in. the Sunday school work and the launch ing of the Church Extension Boaré | and Ministers’ Reliot Board. In al they are claiming through their con Vontion mare than a quarter of a mil ion dollars was raised and spent dur ing the last fiscal years for al pur poses and that over seven thousan¢ dollars of this amount was laid on. the table in cash at the Convention, whict was recently held in Little Rock. ‘1 he Incorporated Branch of th Baptists claim over fifty thousand dol Jars raised for all purposes during. the fiscal year, which closed with thel meeting in’ St. Louis, and nearly five thousan dof this amount was ratsoé in actual cash at thelr St. Louls moet ing. Just what part the Southerr White Baptists will play in the meet ing seems also in doubt, but thel calling the Commission together wouk indicate they are lending simply thelr good offices to bring about a bet ter understanding between the tw: larger branches of Negro Baptists, DUTCH LUNCHEON.

These figures represent an increase of about 1000 per cent in both labor finding activities and in the establishment of local employment offices. The steady rate at which the Service has grown in extent and accomplishment is indicated by the fact that in January last 62,642 persons were sent to jobs while last month 547,862 were directed to employment. Furthermore, during the week ending November 2, the last week but one of war conditions, 162,754 workers were directed—a rate of 650,000 a month.

It is impossible to know how many of the balance were placed, owing to the failure of some employers and workers to notify the Service of the acceptance of workers or jobs. At the outset of the reorganization, it was estimated that the war industries of the country would require between 2,000,000 and 3,000,000 workers up to the end of 1918. Moreover, it was not simply a case of directing to war plants applicants at the local offices of the Employment Service. The Service has had literally to "dig up" men from non war work and help reduce "turnover," the agencies chiefly being the paid agents of the Employment Service, the voluntary Reserve, and more recently, the community labor boards. Patriotic help was rendered the agents and boards by employers and employees and their organizations. The replacement of war workers and soldiers in peace industries, already begun, would indicate that the volume of work of the Employment Service during the coming months will be as great as it was up to the signing of the Armistice ST.

It was holiday, and there in bright array, All the school children cheered in salute; Cheered for the Red, White and Blue and their soldiers so true, But a wee colored lad stood mute; Then the teacher, appalled to the lad quickly called: "Ere you take me to task, there's a "Art a traitor to your Uncle Sam?" question I ask." Said the lad. "Then you judge what I am." CHORUS What will you do, Uncle Sammie, For the black boys who fight for you? Will you protect the old mammy, And the sisters and brothers, too? You ask them to show their allegiance. And they for the Red, White and Blue; If they help win the fight, Will you give them their right? That's the question 'I ask of you. SECOND VERSE To their loved country's need none are quicker to heed To the call, "To arms," and respond; First in Liberty's strife they have offered their life, And have died 'mid the cannon's loud sound. Tho' their color be black, is it right they should lack Protection of Glory's proud wave? Must some die at the stake, while some fight for the sake Of the country whose flag they would save? REFRAIN What will you do Uncle Sammie, For the black folks within your land? Ten millions are asking the question, It is time that you show your hand. There was never a people more loyal, Or true to the Red, White and Blue; If we help win the fight, Will you give us our right? That's the question we ask of you? —Clipped, "McDowell Times." ONE YEAR OF EMMETT J. SCOTT IN THE WAR DEPARTMENT (Continued from page 1) acquaintanceships thus formed, coupled with native zeal, wisdom and industry, render him an ideal man for this exalted position. Mr. Scott has justly earned the commendation of the entire nation by his comprehensive grasp of the vital problems of the day, and by his courageous mastery of them in conference, on the platform and through the press. A more satisfactory selection could not have been made. SECRETARY SCOTT AND HOW HI IS DOING HIS GREAT WORK Mr. Scott, though new to official bombast attended his accession to with the coolness of a veteran. No Washington, approached his big job his office. He had no preconceived "policies" to put over—no personal axes to grind. He had no friends to reward and no enemies to punish. He did not "attudinize" for the purpose of magnifying the importance of his mission or himself. Modestly he took hold of his work, with half a desk as his quarters, owing to the crowded conditions that obtained in the "Secretary's Row" in the great War Department Building proper, and there he mapped out his program, with the one intent uppermost in his race—to serve to the limit of his powers the people whom he was chosen to represent. He had faith in his race, and in turn the race trusted him implicitly. How the office outgrew its first cramped environs and a whole room, with a single assistant was secured, is a story all by itself. How further assistants, one by one, were made necessary by the expansion of the work and its tightening grip upon the people, is still another story. The climax is now reached, after a single year, when the office has leaped into two massive chambers, in the most attractive corner of the first floor, facing [Name] REV. H. M. WILLIAMS, D. D. Of Galveston, Tex., from the Uni- corporated Convention, a member of the Peace Commission, ```markdown ``` stately Pennsylvania Avenue and busy 17th Street, formerly occupied by the main office of the Judge Advocate General of the Army, and the force has been enlarged to eight men and women, selected because of their particular fitness to assist in handling the thousand-and-one knotty issues and manifold demands that run through the Army. The subjects that must be treated with the utmost accuracy and dispatch, at a moment's notice, involve intricate laws and puzzling circumstances that reach into the innermost recesses of the world's most massive war machine; but, it can be said without fear of successful contradiction, that not a single error of judgment or embarrassing action has come to mar the proud record the office has made to date. The relations between the staff of Mr. Scott and the entire Department, from the Secretary of War down to the humblest attache, marshal, and messenger, Mr. Scott's recommendations or requests are given the most respectful consideration by every bureau. This in itself, is a feat that requires no small measure of tact, mental poise and the possession of real merit. In the current mail come hundreds of letters touching a variety of interests that are countless, and not one is neglected. The office—apparently a national "Mecaa"—is besieged from morning till night with visitors of both races, from far and near and from every wark of life, and all seem to leave with the conviction that the best that could have been done on any one of them is for them by Mr. Scott and his courteous aids. How the "ever-on-the-job" Special Assistant manages to think in so many distinct grooves in so short a time any yet maintain an impertable equanimity is a query which only he can answer. WHAT THE YEAR'S RECORD ACTUALLY SHOWS. To give, with any attempt at detail, the activities and achievements of the office of Emmett J. Scott would require far more space than the "column or so" into which I have been asked to condense this story. In brief, paragraphic form however, leaving comment and description to IV- GLOBE EWING DEC 3 the imagination of the reader, some of the principal things that the record of the year will show—directly traceable to the influence of this office—are: 1. A message from the President of the United States in denunciation of the un-American practice of mob violence. 2. The formation of a Speakers' Bureau—or "Committee of One Hundred"—to enlighten the colored Americans on the war aims of the Government. 3. Breaking up discrimination, based on color, in the great ship-building plant at Hog Island. 4. Establishing moral officers and agents at the industrial plants, North and South, where large numbers of colored workmen were employed. 5. The enrollment of colored Red Cross Nurses and securing authorization for the utilization of their services in base hospitals in six cities. 6. The enrollment of soldiers were located—Funston, Dix, Taylor, Sherman—in 10,000 units. 7. Betterment of the general conditions in the camps where Negroes are stationed in large numbers, and positive steps taken to reduce race friction to a minimum wherever soldiers or opposite races are brought into contact. 8. The extension to young colored men the opportunity for special training in technical, mechanical and military science in the various schools and colleges of the country, provision having been made for the training of twenty thousand through the Students' Army Training Corps and other practical agencies of instruction. 9. An increase from four to sixty in the number of colored chapkins for the army service. 10. The recall of Colonel Charles Young to active service in the United States Army. 11. The establishment of a woman's branch under the Council of National Defense, with a colored field agent, Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, to organize the colored women of the country for systematic war work. 12. The appointment of the first colored regularly-commissioned war correspondent, to report military operations on the western front in France. 13. The granting of a loan of $5,000,000 by the United States for the relief of the Republic of Liberia. 14. Opening of every branch of the --- A. B. REV. E. R. CARTER, D. D. Of Atlanta, Ga., for 37 years the pastor of the Friendship Baptist Church of Atlanta, on the Peace Commission of the Unincorporated Convention. military service to colored men, on equal terms with all others, and the commissioning of many colored men as officers in the Medical Corps. 15. Large increase in the number of colored line officers—the total increasing from less than a dozen at the beginning of the war to more than 1,200 16. Direct aid and material encouragement in the "drives" for the Liberty Loans, the Red Cross, the Y. C. A. Y, W. C. A. and United War Work Relief Agencies in general. 17. The calling and successful direction of a Conference of Colored Editors and Leaders, which went far to promote the morale of the 12,000-000 American and led to a declaration of Government's pathetic attitude toward the design and aspirations of its colored citizenry. No conference held for the consideration of Negro problems has been so fruitful of big results as this. By taking the people thoroughly [Picture of a man in a suit with a white shirt and a black tie]. REV. J. S. LADELLE, D. D. Of Little Rock, Ark., member of the Peace Commission of the Unincorporated Convention. into his confidence at every step, speaking frankly and plainly at all times and in all places where a message was expected, mingling freely and cordially with all classes and conditions of mankind, and bridging any gap that needed to be crossed to bring the War Department in the closest touch with the people he essayed to serve, Emmett J. Scott has proven to be an ideal public official and made himself an indispensable factor in the affairs of both his own people and the American nation. If the voice of the united Negro millions of this Republic is hearkened to by the high authorities of the land, the office of Assistant Secretary of War, in charge of problems peculiar to the Negro people, will become a permanent part of the Federal Government.

You can not prolong your life, but you can make every minute of it count for ACHIEVEMENT. Remember this—you can't "put it over" by "putting it off." Abraham Lincoln said: "I will prepare and be ready when my time comes." Would he ever have been president if he had kept putting off the training of his mind? "Put it off" and you are merely welding a link in the chain of HABIT that will sooner of later render your judgement QUAKY and UNSUBSTANTIAL. Charles N. Schwab says: "Keep yourself in training for big achievements, by disposing of your duties in hand, SWIFTLY and with DETERMINATION." Acquire the HABIT of putting things off and very soon you will find the path of progress blocked with an entangling mesh of duties you have postponed. "I'll think it over" has cursed many a man and wrecked many a CAREER. THINK FAST! DECIDE! Dispose of the thing in hand and be ready for the next. Of course, you will say to yourself—"I'm not guilty of this sin of procrastination." Think it over. Analyze yourself. In your own heart you know best whether you are guilty, and if you are, sooner or later, you must PAY THE PENALTY. The world has no responsible jobs to offer the LAGGARD—the man who is AFRAID TO ACT. Strengthen your character with prompt decisions. What is wanted is men who have the "habit" of doing things—and doing them NOW. FINDS POSITIONS FOR SPECIALISTS. Placement Section of the U. S. Public Reserve Fits Persons of Unusual Attainments to Just the Right Job. One of the branches of activity of the United States Employment Service Department of Labor now very busy is the placement section of the United States Public Reserve. This is maintained for the purpose of putting men and women of unusual qualifications in specialized positions. It works independently as well as through the regular employment offices, for it reaches out to the various Governments in which persons of extraordinary or unique attainments are needed, and even goes beyond them to put persons in positions where their highly individualized talents or training may be of the greatest possible value in the national life. H. P. Rusling, head of the section, and Mrs. Charles Eldridge, his assistant, make a study of each applicant. They are perhaps the only two heads of government work who are not in haste when they receive visitors. In their office all is done in a leisurely manner. An applicant is given plenty of time in which to outline qualifications and t o express preference in regard to an occupation, and while he talks he is unconsciously revealing his character and personality to students of human nature, who know just how to fit a man or woman to the position best adapted to peculiar gifts. This placement section of the United States Public Reserve has established many college men and women in positions since the beginning of the war, but it in no way conflicts with the Women's Collegiate Section or any other section, the United States, Employment Service. An idea of its peculiar line of efficiency may be gained from a knowledge of its achievements. For instance, seven men who in civil life drew salaries of $15,000 and upward have been placed in executive positions with the Government where their business experience is needed. The War College has accepted applicants sent to it through this section, and some of these have proved to be good material for liaison officers, interpeters and linguists. A Russian engineer was enabled to find a position in the Ordnance Department. A man and his wife who had done important work in Alaska were directed to just the right places in the War Department. Perhaps the most typical instance of what this section accomplishes is that of the inventor of a highly efficient anti-marine device. This man, who was not certain just what he could do for his country, was placed in a position where he could develop his idea. The work of this section, which has prove, so successful, began as an ex-privilege sought by the privilege of seeing a ship in this unique venture. He volunteered to give his time and gradually proved that there is a need for a branch of the employment service which draws from the great army of men and women who are different from the army of skilled and unskilled workers, either by reason of talent or training, experience or personality. DEVELOPS TRAINING PLAN Jersey City Finds Method of Preparing Unskilled Workers for Machine Production Quickly. Jersey City has devised not only one of the most practical means of solving the present man-power problem in factories, but or giving boys the most comprehensive training possible in machine operation. The board of education of that city, in co-operation with leading manufacturers, has developed a method of training that will enable boys within a comparatively short time to operate a special type of machine well enough to produce goods for consumption, and also to obtain further training that will eventually make them just adults. Boys 16 years of age and older will be admitted to the training schools. If not enough boys are available, women will be trained for machine operation. The State Board of Education and the Federal Board of Vocational Education nare co-operating in the project which effectively extends the work of the Training and Dilution Service of the Department of Labor. This service is charged with the training of the large number of unskilled workers who must be utilized at once in machine production. The Jersey City plan provides for two forms of training—first in the school and second in the shop. The school training will aim to teach the operation of one particular machine in the shortest possible time. Boys in training will be taught, for example, drawing and blueprint readings simple freehand sketches from objects; decimal and common fractions and shop mathematics; surface speeds, proper speeds and feeds for cutting metals thread-cutting sample and compound gearing, taper-turning, taper attachment, and use of callipers and micrometers. RECORD TO MAKE BRIGHT HIS TORY Somewhere in France. When this war is over, and peace lasting peace, declared and the necessitous consorship has been lifted so one may know the names of army units, cities and towns, the Colored historian who records the history of the Colored soldier in this war, will need to imaginative powers to tell of the service the daring deeds of valor, and the incomparable fighting Colored men did over her in France. Verdum, No Man's Land Belleau Woods, Chateau-Thierry, Soissons, the Vesle, Argonne, Champagne, etc., all are vast urns whic hontain the story of how America's black soldiers fought; how they defeated the enemy; how the world safe for democracy". Bordeaux (Brest, St Nasalier, Mont尔, etc. al, will Forever tell la story of the big achievements of the Colored stove NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 6, 1918. VISIT OF MR. VAUGHN Mr. B. Vaughn of Chicago, Ill., spent Thanksgiving week with his sister, Mrs. Bessie Blackmon, of 914 Edgehill Street. Many entertainments were set for him. Mr. Vaughn has now returned home expressing himself as having an enjoyable time. "Abraham Lincoln Club" Organized in Cuba. The colored people of Havana, Cuba, have organized an "Abraham Lincoln Club" for war work. Sergeant H. Thomas is president; Clifford C. H. Hancock, director; and Henry H. Seliers, treasurer. Ex-Sergeant John F. Thomas, formerly of the 10th United States Cavalry, now confidential messenger to President Mario G. Menocal, of the Republic of Cuba, is the founder of the organization. At Blanco 8 the club has handsome quarters, with large audience room, palm garden on roof with clear sweep for the breezes from the Gulf of Mexico, with fine dining floor and provision for the club. With the aid of members with the club is a ladies' auxiliary an employment agency, physical culture department and classes for instruction for Spanish and English, and a club hospital is an contemplation. President Menocal is chairman of the board of trustees. The membership is upward of 200. --- At a meeting of the employees of the National Baptist P*publishing House, Nashville, Teen., held in the chapel of the plant, the office staff subscribed for $5,000 worth of Fourth Liberty Bonds. Henry Allen Boyd addressed the meeting and made very clear the war aims of the Government in their special application to colored Americans. He also held a successful meeting at Columbia, Teen., to push the sale of liberty bonds. During the recent campaign for the Fourth Liberty Loan in Dallas and Marengo counties of Alabama, Dr. A. F. Owens, dean of the Theological Department at the university, delivered some effective speeches. Both counties went "over the top" and five hundred and one thousand dollar subscribers among the colored people were numerous. Several Alabama dailies are carrying the war news relating to Negroes and both white and colored readers find it most interesting. The Nashville Globe is to issue a special "Patriotic Number" during the first week in December under the direction of Henry Allen Boyd, and to A. M. E. Churca Review of which Dr. Reverdy C. Ransom is editor, is to put out a "Patriotic Number" some time during the same month. Although the armistice with Germany has been signed and peace is on its way, there is no dismution in the patriotic spirit on the part of the colored press or people in general. They regard the armistice as bring to the Neuro race the fruits of the victory for democracy as important as the work they have just put into the winning of the war itself. The 12,000,000 coated Americans in this land are keenly alive to the tremendous service that is called for by the future to guarantee to them the liberty and opportunity for which they have fought, side by side with other branches of the American family. The Charleston American invites attention to the fact that out of the $260,000 taken at Charleston (S. C.) Navy Yard, 1,200 colored employees, many of them only in temporary service, recently bought bonds to the value of $66,700, over one-fourth of the total. * * * Capt. Joseph E. Trigge, who has made an enviable record with the 368th Infantry, "Somewhere in France," formerly in command of Company A, has been transferred to the staff and placed in charge of Munitions. Capt Trigge took an active and creditable part in the reduction of the St. Mihiel salient, one of the decisive battles in the war. * * * * It is stated that there are now 325 Y. M. C. A. secretaries engaged in work among the colored troops in this country and overseas, laboring under the supervision of Dr. J. E. Mooreland, International Secretary and in charge of the colored division of Y. M. C. A. war work, conducted through the National War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A., of the United States, with headquarters at 347 Madison Avenue, New York City. John M. Wright, former Denny County Treasurer of Shawnee Coun- ty, Topela, Kansas, has enlisted in the war service as a Y. M. C. A. see retary and is stationed at Camp Grant Rockford. Illinois. --- One of the urgent matters to which colored Y. M. C. A. secretaries at the various camps have been addressing themselves earnestly and vigorously, is the reduction of illiteracy among the colored goldiers. In a few of the camps, its is stated, that more than 80 per cent of the men are unable to read or write. This refers particularly to camps where the colored men come from districts far removed from cities or settlements where educational facilities are availi * * * A city-wide reception was teerdered in honor of Sergeant Needham Roberts, Wednesday evening, November 6th, at Trenton, N. J., his home town. Mayor Frederick W. Donnelly took a hearty interest in arranging the affair. This is the member of the "Flighting Fifteenth" of New York (merged into the 369th Infantry), who with Henry Johnson, put a score or more of Huns to flight in one of the most terrific encounters of the war in France, and thus saved the lives of thousands of their sleeping comrades in camp, over which they were assigned as guards. Film of "Our Colored Fighters" To Be Released. Announcement is made that the Division of Films of the United States Committee on Public Information has made arrangements for the release of an inspiring patriotic moving picture "Our Colored Fighters" as the Dowring Film Company, Astor Theater Building, New York City. By communicating with this corporation colored patriotic organizations can secure this film and give the people of every section of the country an opportunity to see it and to assist in raising funds for the various war relief agencies that are conducting "drives" for the benefit of our boys at the front. "Our Colored Fighters" is a two-reel picture illustrating graphically the important part the Negro troops have taken in the World War. It pictorializes the enlistment and training of the color soldiers in the cantonments and also shows them in action in some of the most thrilling combats over seas. As an illustration of the international interest that the Negro's participation in the war is attracting, a number of striking comments have been made on the war work of the American Negro by "West-Africa," an admirably gotten up weekly newspaper published in London, England, and capably edited by Albert Cartwright. This is the only British weekly devoted exclusively to the Allies' countries in West Africa, the majority of whose regular people are Africans. Mr. Cartwright, himself a native African, expresses a desire for all possible information as to what the "African-descended people of the United States" are doing for the common cause. Attention.

I don't know whether you ever visited France in your tours, but when this conflict has ceased as it will it be by the time this letter reaches you, you should visit France and see this beautiful country. The roads in France cannot be excelled by any country. Their exsights to be seen in this country, poor people have been driven from their homes because of the barbarous acts of the Huns.

St. James' Baptist Church, Taylor's Gap St. Michaels Barbados, November 7th, 1918. Rev. H. A. Bord, Asst. See'y 523, 2nd Ave North, Nasville, Tenn. My Dear Brother: Grace and peace to you and yours, in the Lord. By this enclosed letter which I received from your hands since last year is still awaiting your promise. I am quoting II James, 2 verse 12th chap, as a reminder. Now dear brother, the third epistle of John speaks thus verse 1, 2-6. Oh may my Heavenly Father awaken you to do as he would have you, though on the foreign field praying, and suffering for the cause of the Master, I have nothing to be ashamed of as Paul th's 7th morning of November, 1918. I can hold state, therefore, I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake, for when I am weak then am I strong, 2 Cor. 11-10. I want to say that it is always the mind of the satanical one to keep back part of the goods from the true and humble followers of the meek and lowly Jesus. He tries to keep back our financial help, even from the Board so as to, discourage us, but glory to God's precious name, he cannot take from us the love which has shed abroad in our hearts, by the power of the Holy Spirit. The very Union-Review, which I used to get is stopped, nevertheless, in this I will be confident, believing that all things happen for good to them that are called. Where brethren forget God, never no never. The Lord NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 6, 1918. M. R. S. REV. L. L. CAMPBELL. D. D..

Labor administration as furthered by this Service is in engineering production problem, modified by the fact that it deals also with human labor power, which is inseparable from human life. It is evident that in addition to the production phases, it must take into consideration all of those human impulses and motives which make up the individual and his desire for progressive self-development. While labor administration will profit by the valuable in scientific management and efficiency methods, it will seek to avoid over emphasizing regimentation and will endeavor to make it primary objective, so far as the workers are concerned, the development of individual initiative. The Division of Safety Engineering completes the structure of the Working Condition Service. Standards for mechanical safety have been more adequately worked out than standards for sanitation and industrial hygiene. Accidents startled and quicken sympathy. They are obviously traceable to working conditions. As a result, compensation legislation has put economic pressure behind efforts to prevent industrial accidents by making it more economical for employers to prevent industrial M. B. REV. C. H.

As accident losses were made legitimate burdens upon industry, managements became interested in establishing safe processes. There are now in nearly all of the States of the Union safety codes and agencies charged with the establishment and maintenance of industrial safety. Supplementing Government agencies the great energizing forces in this field have been the National Safety Council and various technical societies. The policy of the Working Conditions Service is to avoid duplication of work and activity and, by acting as a coordinate agency, to cooperate with the forces already in the field to bring Federal directing impetus in the national campaign for uniformity of safety standards, practices, and equipment, standardization of safety organizations, and for the collection of data necessary for the continuous modification of standards to meet new conditions. The bureau of Standards has offered its cooperation in the formulation of codes. The assistance of the National Safety Council will be invaluable in securing the practical application of safety standards and practices. The Council has agreed to cooperate with the Working Conditions Service and appointed a committee of five for consultation and advice. The codes which are to be worked out under the Division of Safety Engineering will be the result of experience and experimentation, conclusion with technical organizations, and conferences with employers and employees in order to ascertain the necessary practical modifications.

Mr. George Sublett fell asleep in Jesus November 16, 1918, at the ripe age of 64 years, 3 months. He became a Christian many years ago and became one of the pillars of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. He had been in bad health for the past three years, sometimes suffering intensely. Near the last he said he was only waiting for the Lord who had brought him through many dangers, tools, and snare safely. The funeral was held at the Mt. Zion Baptist Church on the 17th inst., conducted by the pastor. Rev. G. A. Nance. He was for several years connected with the benevolent Order and at one time was one of its trustees. He was a man of strong convictions and was willing at all times to do what was right. He leaves to mourn their loss a wife, one daughter, one son and a host of relatives and friends. His last song was "Must Jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free," and his favorite was, "If I must die, let me die in peace with all mankind."

The interdigitation of these three divisions, Industrial Hygiene and Medicine, Labor Administration and Safety Engineering, will further the maintenance of principles formulated as an integral part of a general program for working conditions. It is the intention of the Working Conditions Service to seek the cooperation of all agencies and organizations concerned directly or indirectly with working conditions, in order that all standards shall be the results of carefully considered judgments based on experience of all elements in production. There are three ultimate tests—human effects, production, industrial organization. There is need for employers to understand that good business demands conservation and development of the workers whose mental and physical ability conditions production, quantitatively and qualitatively. There is need for workmen to understand that good health, skill, good management, care to prevent accidents, mean to them increasing material well-being and greater opportunities for advancement.

The interests of the Party were never cared for by men of a higher type. It is pleasing to testify to the fine spirit of unselfish co-operation and helpfulness that was saccored this Committee by the Republican National Committee throughout the campaign. One of the greatest fields of endeavor there was complete harmony of purpose and unity of action. The splendid support that has been given this Committee in the campaign just closed and in prior campaigns, and the work it has been able to accomplish the for the advancement of the Party is proof sufficient of the wisdom and far-sightedness of its founders, and ample evidence that the membership of the Party, recognizing the M.

The Old Reliable TAYLOR & COMPANY importance of the Legislative branch of our government, strongly approves the plan for a weel organized National Committee, continuously in session and available for all emergencies, to give special attention to legislative problems and congressional elections, including special elections to fill vacancies. Made up, as it is, for a member of the Congress from each state in the Union furnishing a member of either branch belonging to our Party, its membership is at once conversant with legislative affairs and local conditions in the several states. For the most part party policies are mounded and take from within the halls of Congress where the affairs of Government are constantly under consideration. It is there, also, that disagreements as to policy occur, drawing the distinction between those who hold to the fundamental principles on which our Party is founded and those who disagree with us and hold to different theories of government. The field for the activities of this Committee is ap parent. To solve in the interest of all the manyp intricate problems that will concern us during the next Congress, we will need the assistance and hearty co-operation of all men and women who are prompted by high motives and patriotic purposes. We solicit the resistance and wish to give assurance that their recommendations and suggestions, if entrusted to us, will be brought to the attention of the Congress. We wish, too, that members of the Party feel free to call upon us when they are in need of information as to the status or condition of legislative or departmental matters. We wish to serve and will gladly respond to requests for information to the extent of our ability.

He knows no man by the color of his skin or texture of his hair. A man is recognized, by this great general, by his true worth and ability to do. When the hydra-headed demon of southern prejudice attempted to influence General Foch to segregate colored officers and soldiers in France he made the following statement: "Gentlemen, when Gen. Pershing came to France, he found a black man at the head of the French Army. France has no color prejudice and presecutes no man on account of color or creed." The black man to whom Marshal Foch referred, is General Dodds. This man has been stationed in Cochin China, in command of the Oriental armies of France for many years. France honored him for his ability and sent him at the head of the Allied armies in their march to Pekin during the Boxer uprising Gen. Dodds speaks fluently several languages. Because of his familiarity with Chinese languages and customs, he has been a success in the Orient. SUNFL. • WER ARICULTURAL AS- SOCIATION MEETS. One of the finest displays ever wit- nessed was that of the Sunflower Agr- ricultural Association at the Topeka Industrial Institute. This is the tenth session of the organization, and never before in its history was a greater session held, not the display more beautiful, than that held on the 27th 28th and 29th of November. The and/orium was liberally decked with large pumpkins, potatoes, turnips and watermelons, in fact every kind of vegetable. There were thousands of cans of different kinds of fruits made by wives of farmers, clubs and by the domestic living some of the Topeka Industrial A. Town. On the wails were many tales of beautiful pieces of fancy work. The sessions were well attended by many wealthy farmers from different points in Kansas. The Thanksgiving and Peace services were held Thursday morning. Rev. J. C. Rogers from Hutchinson, Kansas, delivered an excellent sermon on "The Service of the Negro Soldiers on the Firing Line." At the afternoon session, Hon. Nick Chiles, editor of the Topeka Plaindealer, made an interesting talk on the subject "The Acquirement of the Negro Soldiers and the Opportunities of the Young People." Other addresses were made by Dr. S. E. J. Watson, Rev. W. W. Russell, Rev. H. W. King, and Prof. M. Kirk of Manhattan, Kansas. The greatest feature of the occasion, took place Friday afternoon at two o'clock, when Prof Geo. H. Bridgeforth was inaugurated as new principal. Prominent men from different sections of the country were here to be present and to take part in the occasion. The principal speaker was Gov. Arthus Gapper. In his closing address, he praised the colored Americans for the great part they have displayed in the World's War, and paid tribute to the work being done in the Industrial and Educational Institute. Other addresses were made by Prof. Bridgeforth, W. D. Ross, state Superintendent of Public Instruction, Rev. J. H. Van Lieut of Wichita, Kansas, Dr. L. C. Yyman of New York City, Prof. Ridley and Prof. Fred Roundtree both of this city. Prizes were awarded Saturday morning to those who carried off honors at the exhibition. MR. AND MRS.

He is a constant reader of the Globe. AN "UNCONDITIONAL SUR- RENDER". "The utter submission and stripping of the Hun." "A surrender unexamined in the history of the world." "If ever in the world's history there was an Unconditional Surrender, it is this of Germany"—these are some typical expressions of the reaction of the country's editors to the terms of the armistice that ended the Great War. The New York Herald, since the early days of the war most bitterly insistent on German defeat, exults that "German militarism is not only defeated, but crushed; not only prone, but bound hand and foot. Did ever another truculent militarism meet such a debacle?" The New York Evening Post, whose attitude has been characterized by that coolness which much ratiocination is supposed to bring to the emotions, is equally enthusiastic. Says The Post: "To have lived to see this day fills up the measure of happiness of uncounted millions. They are very adequate. The armistice was admirably by the best military minds of the United States, Great Britian, and France," in the opinion of a famous international lawyer, and the New York Journal of Commerce declares that the conscience "means that for years the German states will be unable to think in terms of armed force NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 6. 1918.

D., Of Beamton, Tex., President of the Third Convention of Texas, a member of the Peace Commission from the Unincorporated National Baptist Convention. "Eminently satisfactory," the New York Evening Sun calls these terms, and discusses them in their practical application: "They safeguard the interests of the 'Allies and the United States; they are sternly severe to the culprit nation which has deluged the world in blood; withal, they are humane, since they promise sustenance to the beaten people; they impose no permanent subjection upon them; on the contrary, they open the way for reorganization of the German body politic upon a civilized basis. "Despite their severity, it is impossible to regard the stipulations as crushing or cruel. They are strictly military in character and leave all adjustments of civil questions to the future. They are not deliberately humiliating; their obvious motive is military precaution, and if they deep- ly mortify the pride of the German people, it is solely because all penalty is destructive of self-respect in that it involves the establishment of guilt. "The disgrace to Germany lies wholly in the offense which has deserved such a visitation of wrath at the hands of God and man. It can not be said that the terms are easy; and still if we consider the proposals that the Kaiser's Government would have made to the opposed Powers had Germany been victorious, if we consider the programs of insult and spoilation so often exploited by German publicists in books, in speeches, and in the daily press, we are forced to think that Germany is getting off the hooked or than she had any right to exploit the terms are far from being the maximum that might have been imposed had the Allies had any schemes of aggrandizement in their minds. "It must be remembered that this present array of conditions is not a final peace program. It merely covers a suspension of hostilities for the negotiation of peace. But, in fact, on the one, hand, it places the military situation so completely in the hands of America and the Allies that they will be able to dictate any terms to Germany that they elect; on the other hand, it admurbs with tolerable clearness the lengths to which these terms will be pushed. Restitution, restoration, emancipation, safety for the future are the four heads in the Ally program. These, it is clear, will be insisted upon to the full degree, but there the hostile purpose ends. There is no project of subjugation or dismemberment." The New Yory Times gives this summary of what Germany will lose with the land that she is now in process of evacuating: The territory lying on the western or left bank of the Rhine within the German Empire to be evacuated by the German troops represents in productivity about twenty-five per cent. of the entire Empire's manufacturing industry, omitting shipbuilding, over seventy per cent. of its agriculture, and about one-third of its agriculture. It includes an area of nearly 20,000 square miles, which had before the war a civil population of over 11,000,000. "The importance of the industrial region of Prussian Province, and even that of the fortifications of Metz and strasburg, is completely discounted by the iron region of the Bassin de Briey, in Lorraine, which, beginning over the Belgian and Luxemburg frontiers, ascends the Moselle to within a few miles of Pont-a-Mousson. This mining region, with an area of 225 square miles, was cut in two by the treaty of Frankfort, which closed the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71, and was entirely occupied by the Germans in August-December, 1914. On September 13 last the First American Army in wiping out the St. Mihiel salient reached its southern confines. "During the war the Bassin de Briey has provided the German armaments with eighty per cent of their steel, and without it, according to the most facious Dusseldorf iron-masters, the Empire could not have conducted the war for three months. "When the war began France was obtaining yearly from the Bassin de Briey 15,000,000 tons of iron out of her total productivity of 22,000,000. Of Germany's total of 28,000,000 tons 21,000,000 came from the Bassin de Briey. Since the war began Germany has mined the French area together with the Luxemburg area 21,000,000 tons to her a total of 42,000,000 tons, to be added to only 7,000,000 tons, which she has obtained outside the Bassin. "Aside from the mineral products of the now recovered provinces, which include annually 3,795,952 tons of coal, also gypsum and limestone, the cotton manufacturer, the cotton manufacturer, the most important in Germany; also the yield of wheat, rye, barley, potatoes, oats, and hay (respectively 300,000, 93,000, 109,000, 1,266,000, 210,000, and 1,138,000 metric tons a year) was great.

HAYNES The editor of the Nashville Globe has asked me and message on the Department of Labor work with the Negro Wage-earners for publication in his patriotic number. It is a pleasure to embrace this opportunity to mention some of the things the Department has undertaken in the interest of Negro Wage-earners during the past months of the war now drawing to a victorious end. One of the earliest questions the war presented was the large migration of Negro workers from the South. The department has had a thorough investigation made of the causes and problems of this migration. The report is now in the press and will be published in book form of about 200 pages. It deals in a frink unified with the facts, the theories, and constructive help and should be a substantial help in securing justice in race re-actions. Copies will be available for free distribution. A number of requests have come to my office in Washington for more publicity about what we have been doing the past seven or eight months. From now on such publicity can be given. It has not been practical heretofore first because there was so much to do in interests of Negro wageearners and of winning the war that all energies of employees were largely absorbed with other work. In the second place it seemed best to wait until there were substantial results achieved test there should be too much said in comparison with what had been done. The first task was to create the machinery through which the Department could get the co-operative help of representatives of Negro wage-earners, white employers and wherever possible of what workmen in applying the national standards and policies of the Department to local problems. The Secretary of Labor adopted the principle that the Negro worker rightfully should have representation in councils where his interests were be considered. In line with principle and that of co-operation of white employers and white workmen state conferences of representatives of Negro wage-earners, white employers, and where possible of white workmen have been held in Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Mississippi, Kentucky, Illinois, Ohio and New Jersey. Others will be held soon in Michigan, Missouri, Louisiana and South Carolina. At these conferences open discussions of plans and problems have taken place. Following the conferences Negro Workers' Advisory Committees have been formed for the state as a whole, and as rapidly as possible for each county and city. At the present time we are forming local committees in Pennsylvania and Tennessee as the first steps toward state wide work, since the cessation of the war has lessened the need of haste. These committees have official relations with State and County Councils of Defense, United States Employment Service, Community Labor Boards, Commercial Clubs and other agencies interested. They are meant to replace existing organizations and agencies but to be the means of the Department of Labor's program as it relates to New Wage-earners to all the local forces for industrial and agricultural improvement. In nine states the Department has appointed colored men as Supervisors of Negro Economics who have promoted the program in their respective states under the advice of the Director of Negro Economics as the advisor to the Secretary of Labor. The work of these advisory committees and supervisors has varied with the different problems which have arisen in different states, some places they have dealt successively and the effort to apply "worker rights" legislation to colored women; in others they have helped to settle friction between white and colored workmen; in others they have helped the Employment Service and employers secure competent Negro workers. Especially have they been active in Ohio in introducing colored women in industrial plants under favorable conditions. Hundreds of local meetings, some of them having thousands in the audience, have been held to account the local people of the nation's labor force. Many of these meetings white and colored citizens have attended and the speakers have been white and colored. The office of the Secretary at Washington has been the center from which all these various activities have been directed in eleven states. This work has required taxing effort from many employees and the assistance of many private citizens, white and colored. The writer, as Director of Negro (Continued on Page 5.) One=Cent Savings Bank XMAS SAVINGS CLUBS ```markdown ``` TO CHARGE, OR NOT. FOR SOL- DIERS' COMFORTS? Shall the Soldier pay, or shall he have "everything free" that the Y. M. C. A. and the Knights of Columbus provide for his comfort? The policies of the two organizations are at variance both in theory and practice, and the discussion of their change to uniformity is still on the Y. M. C. A. charges, and must charge, since its ministrations are in an allied sense a part of the army organization. Report, according to the Catholic organ America (New York), represents General Pershing as requesting the Knights of Columbus "to establish canteens in France and to retail the little comforts and at prizes tallying with those charged by the Quarterly Department." Some misunderstanding over the canteen or post exchange conducted by the Y. M. C. A. in France, and a statement has been submitted by Mr. Fred B. Shipp, who according to Dr. John R. Mott, "knows more about the facts involved than any other man in the United States." In an official statement issued by the Association he clears up some points that were apparently brought by our boys who were among the canteens there, who bore the brunt of our initial acts when organization was in its earliest stages, and who are with us again with the honorable badges of their devotion. We read: "In the summer of 1917 the military authorities inquired as to how fully the "Y" was prepared to assume responsibility for canteen service with the American Expeditionary Force. After several conferences General Pershing's Headquarters, it gave a charge that we should assume full charge of this service, including the purchase of work in America, in Great Britain, in France and in the neutral countries of Europe. "Bulletin No. 33, issued by General Pershing's Chief of Staff, stated that goods were to be sold at the several 'Y' centers at purchase cost price, plus cost of transportation, with a slight margin added to cover goods lost in transit; that is any profit should arise, the 'Y' would use it exclusively for the men of the Army; that the canteens would be operated under the general direction of the respective men; and that the plan was designed to release enlisted men for direct military service. "A few of the men, accustomed to the canteens operated by the Army, were not entirely pleased with this arrangement. Several 'Y' leaders also felt that the plan had in it possibilities of embarrassment for the Association, particularly in view of the shortage of supplies under war conditions and of the scarcity and excessive cost of ocean transportation. When the Army Bulletin authorizing the arrangement was issued, however, we all entered heartily into the plan. "Unfortunately for the 'Y', the ship carrying our first cargo of supplies was submarined of the French coast. Before another ship arrived it was necessary, in order to meet the demands of the men, to pick up in the cities and towns of France at retail war-prices such small quantities of supplies as could be found. No profit was attempted on these high cost goods, and frequently they were sold much below the purchase price. Many of the soldiers, however, customized to prewar prices at home, could not understand what seemed like 'high prices,' and thus the charge of profiteering began. "About the time our first shipment from America arrived, the Quartermaster's Department also received a large stock of canteen supplies which had been ordered before this service was turned over to the 'Y.' These goods were placed on sale to the soldiers at the few Commissary Sales Stores when the Army had established and were sold at government stores and the factory in America, with a nothing added or transportation. The contrast between these prices and ours, which included the heavy ocean transportation cost, again placed the Association in an unfavorable light, notwithstanding the fact that we added nothing for motor-transportation or for overhead expenses. "The fact that one or two other organizations were, by agreement, allowed to furnish limited centeen service at a few designated points, and that this service was usually free, established a precedent in the minds of some of the soldiers which they felt the 'Y' should follow at its many hundreds of centers. While our free distribution of supplies on the front line in time of important actions aggregated considerably more than the free distribution of other organizations, the average soldier was imprest by the fact that most of the time he paid for his supplies at the 'Y' centees, while on such special occasions as this other centeen service was available to him it was on a free basis. It was unfortunate that the plan provided in Bulletin No. 33 placed the Association in the position of only American agency in France despite with the soldier on a commercial basis. Our extensive program of regular service to him, at the base ports, in the training areas, and in the front-line trenches: for example, the furnishing of reading matter, writing materials, movies, concerts, theatrical entertainments, athletic supplies, and all else that goes with a 'Y' hut or dugout in France—all of it without charge—was obscured in the minds of many because we were also handling merchandise at what often appears to them to be exorbitant prices." A further occasion for misunderstanding with some, and especially among those of our boys whose patriotism tolerates no language but English and no economic system but that of "good old United States," is the fact that business is necessarily done with French money. Mr. Shipp offers a simple explanation: "In appearance the franc looks much like our twenty-five-cent piece, and unconsciously one feels that it should have the same purchasing power. Its actual value, however, is about seventeen and a half cents. When used in one of our canteens to purchase a standard article which until recently retailed at home for ten cents, but which now costs probably that much at wholesale, and to which increased cost the 'Y' has added five cents for ocean transportation, it yields the soldier so little change that unless he takes all the facts into consideration he feels he is being robbed. "We must also recognize that NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 6, 1918. among several thousand workers whom the 'Y' has sent to France, there are necessarily some who are entirely unsuited to this service, and although these workers, after a fair trial, are sent home, their stay is often long enough for them greatly to injure the Association, particularly when they are employed in canteen service. I am glad, however, to bear testimony to the fact that while most of our workers I have come to us without previous experience in C. A. Service, these lawyers, manufacturers, merchants, clergymen, college professors, and men and women from nearly every other walk of life in America, have in most cases 'made good', and have performed an unselfish service for the welfare of the soldiers. A significant testimony to the fact that many of them have been trained or gassed and that several, including two women, have lost their lives under enemy fire. "The cause, I believe, of a good recent criticism has not been so much the prices charged as the fact that the 'Y' in certain instances was unable fully to carry-out its plan to provide free canteen supplies to the men as they were going into action or as they were being killed out. The reason for this was not a shortage of supplies but the absolute inability to secure the necessary motor transportation. Over and over again, the Y. M. C. A. worker has found himself on the extreme front battle-line with absolutely no supplies to give to the fighting and wounded men, while at the same time our stores back of the line were well stocked. Any one familiar with the motor transport situation in France during the past few months has witnessed the 'Y' from responsibility in this matter. One of the inevitable results of the exceptional fighting activity of recent weeks." The Knights of Columbus however, prefer to stick to their original principle. Mr. William J. Mulligan, Chairman of the K. of C. Committee on War Activities, is quoted by the New York Times as saying: "We have made it a first principle of our work to charge for nothing, and that principle will be maintained by the Knights of Columbus. The other war-relief organizations cooperating with us have given concurrence to this policy." A more criticalism that the free policy is "pauperizing" the men, and goes on to consider the financial condition of the average soldier: "His overseas pay is very limited, when allotments, insurance, and so on, are deducted. He receives his leave and naturally 'blows' himself to elaborate food and entertainment in any near-by city that has these things for sale. When young men have been through mankind's finest imitation of Hades, they emerge a little eager for the good things of life, and who shall deny them? The good things of life are only to be obtained upon a certain tariff, which, if seducciously consulted, will be found to bear rather a condescending relation toward a soldier's spending. If seducciously consulted, will be found himself in a position where he is not able to afford the light little luxuries given to him by the Knights. Now who shall say that he be denied these luxuries until such time as he earns more money to pay for them? "Take the case of our men at home. Refer to the newspapers again, and this time we are sure of the truth of the reports because we have witnessed the fact with our own eyes. Our soldiers and sailors in a big city, spending their furloughs, exhaust their scanty funds, carelessly, perhaps, but do we stipulate that they must consider all the risks before they plunge into an enemy barrage? They have nowhere to lay their heads, and they have no money, or very, very little. Is it better for them to go to a cheap lodging-house, where they will meet some of the vile specimens of humanity which our organizationization proposes. Or would you, were a particular soldier or sailor your own son or your own brother, prefer to have him accept the benefice of the American people through the Knights of Columbus, who conduct service-houses containing good, clean beds in good wholesome surroundings, for these very boys? "Moreover, the Knights are the trustees of a public fund raised for the benefit of the nation's defenders. If, through wise and economical administration, the Knights find that they are able to supply the boys with beds and other necessities or luxuries entirely free of charge, why in the sacred name of charity should anybody challenge their rights to do so? Scout the thought that our soldiers and sailors are spoiled by this happy application of a public fund. Our soldiers and sailors may have a cogent reply to this ridiculous assertion when they return from the wars; they may even go so far as to say that we have been spoiled, that we have sat at home investing our money at four and more per cent. a year after Uncle Samuel has dusted his knees in an attempt to get us to do so, while they have been facing the dangers of the sea and struggling through the horrors of the battlefield."

It seems that while we are rejoicing and giving praise to our Negro boys who have gone to the front to protect the dignity of this our republic, our hearts are made sad, not over the condition of race prejudice, but the taking of the government in the country, whom we have not a conception of rightfully judging themselves, much less the destiny of others. We believe our government to be the most intelligent of any other in the world. We feel that lawlessness does not characterize the constitution of the land, and we can not but think that the representative part of the people of this country, if from no doubt insufficient than humane, will resent the spirit of co-operation of states and municipalities to Lynch his black brother. By reflection, when war was declared, taking things at their face value, we did not see how the Negro could consistently be called into the conflict. And, since he was called and answered in the terms of Samuel, "Here am I," and went into the war dauntless, fearless and unprejudiced, we feel that his constitutional rights should be respected. Just think of the incompatibility; last week we were rejoicing and glad that we had had a part in the victory, which was declared when on wireless as it were, we were given the "burning message that our brothers were being lawlessly outraged and lynched in our then rejoicing republic. It seems almost unreal and yet it is a fact. When will our great government take these things in hands and make some legislation which will wipe out forever, this, the greatest of all indignities to the Negro people? We are a patriotic people, our hearts with one accord go up in support of our executives. Surely we cannot be termed as disloyal. Would that there were clubs organized in a greater number to intelligently place this matter before men of the nation who have enough gratitude in their hearts to concede to the Negro his constitutional rights as an American citizen. We should ask. As a lawshould be punished, but since we abiding people we feel that all crime have courts ranging from a mere municipal one to the United States Supreme Court, we feel that there are enough to see that justice shall be given every individual. We are too broad to ask for things special; all we ask is the satisfaction of knowing that as a part of this government we have the power to comprehended in the constitution of the United States—U.

"One night the cough was worse than usual and I started taking Lung-Vita, having found part or a bottle in the house. I finished this bottle and one other that I bought and the cough is gone and I have not had the pain in my chest for some time.

Woman's Educational League Formed in and Training, Seminary, and Training, Seminary. With a slogan of "Five Thousand Dollars for Religious Defense and Educational Redemption, not a Dime for Criticisms," with a motto, "The Day of Nickles and Dimes is Past, Think in Dollars by the Thousands," the Baptist Woman's Educational League swung into existence this week with a full roster of officers, executive committee, publicity committee and advisory board, known as colonels. This organization is made up of some of the best Baptist workers among the women of the state. The campaign touching every organization, every church, every missionary society and every individual in Tennessee and to report within the ninety days not less than five thousand dollars, which is the goal set. Literature is already in the course of preparation and every member of the organization seems to be on the alert, so that the entire machinery of this Baptist Women's Educational League will be turning at the same time with the supreme task of the five thousand before them. Already the women of Tennessee have been women in the interest of their theological and training seminary, but from this movement it would appear they are forging to the front. At the Baptist Ministers' Conference on Monday morning the full plan was set before the ministers by Mrs. Cora Jordan White. This received the unanimous endorsement of the Conference of more than forty Baptist churches of the city through their representatives in this organization pledging their hearty support to the movement. The officers are as follows: Executive Committee; Mrs. Cora Jordan White; Interim Director D. A. Ferguson. Murfreesboro, Tenn. secretary; Mrs. A. Drenum, Symrna Tenn. treasurer; Mrs. M. W.

(Continued from Page 4.) Economics, has had to travel thousands of miles for these conferences and meetings in these states besides the office work at Washington. In this connection, it may be well to point out that many questions upon which the assistance of the Department has been asked were matters that extended to the jurisdiction and to the jurisdiction of federal departments and to the jurisdiction of citizens. In such cases the officials of the Department of Labor have done their best to get results. In some cases they have not succeeded. But in all cases the Negro wage-earners may feel assured that the Department has done its best and stands ready to serve them as far as it is able. Now that the reconstruction problems are upon us, naturally all workers, Negro included, are asking what will be gained for them as a result of the war, and is early for the wisest to predict. But may be sure that we are not going back to the old pre-war conditions, but for ward to better things. So far as the Department of Labor is concerned, the Secretary has just appointed a committee to outline new policies that the demobilization and reconstruction work may be as effectively done as the war work of the Department has been. Mr. Louis F. Post, Assistant Secretary, is chairman of that committee. Recently in speaking of the work with Negro wage-earners and their employers, Mr. Post said: "We have been much grafted at the response of Negro wage-earners and their representatives in all parts of the country to our efforts to give them a voice and a part in the great responsibility of all workers of the nation in the War Labor program, and have been accorded at the liberal cooperative attitude a reaction of white employers and white workmen everywhere. Now that a victorious peace for democracy is before us, and the problems and questions of reconstruction, as they relate to the interests of wage-earners, will follow in the wake of the war, the Department of Labor will look to the Negro workers of the nation with confidence that they will give similar support to the efforts of the Negro workers of the nation with confidence to promote their interests along with those of all other wage-earners." Negro workers have gained a substantial advance in occupation in both industry and agriculture during the war. Three things are necessary for them to hold these gains and advance to others: 1. All together they need to be alert to deliver the goods equal to the other fellows—and a little more for good measure. 2. Again, they need to choose carefully unselfish representatives to present their cause at the council table and not tolerate those who try to use the present situation for selfish ends South Kentucky and Middle Association; L.

Bijou Theatre, Nashville, Tenn., the equal of any Colored Theatre in the country; shows Vaudeville and Moving Pictures and books through The Mutual Amusement Circuit. BIGOU PAINTFALL BIGOU Nashville lays claim to possessing one of the finest moving picture theaters operated exclusively for colored patronage in the entire United States—The Bijou. This theater is operated by the Bijou Amusement Company, with Milton Starr as manager. The members of the company are white. Mr. Starr has active supervision over all details in connection with operating the house, and it has been largely through the efficient and capable manner of handling his work that the Bijou has risen to its present high standard of quality. The capacity of the house is 1,500, having both a balcony and gallery, with a large number of boxes. The building was formerly used as a first class road show house for white people, and is one of the largest theaters in the city, but since the Negro business section has been drawn toward this locality the theater has become ideally situated for a Negro moving picture house of quality. It has been running in this capacity for over 2 years under the present management, and the building was recently pur- A. B.

She is the wife of one of Nashville's business men posing as a Dutch woman. When Wm. N. Sanders responded to the call in 1912 to serve as Executive Secretary of the Nashville Colored Branch Y. M. C. A., he stated in his letter of acceptance to the General Secretary, Mr. S. W. McGhil, "With a capacity to receive and ability to impart, I will accept the place." Previous to this time Mr. Sanders had spent ten years in preparatory school and seven years in technical training, bookkeeping and general business usages. While a student in college he was active in everything that would better qualify him for his life work. He was a debater of some note, having won a gold medal in a local debate, was a member of the inter-collegiate debating team and was president of the College debating club. He spent three years at the printer's trade as a compositor and proof-reader and newspaper work in general. He was active in athletics devoting considerable time to tennis, played some base ball and foot ball. He was twice president of the Young Men's Christian Association and was delegate to the Student Y. M. C. A. Conference. He was also a member of the White Cross League, temperance society and college glee club and was a continuous member of the college class. He served as advance agent of the college brass, band for two years and was advance agent and business manager for a quartet during his summer vacation in his junior year, visiting half a dozen northern states. He was also valedictorian of his class. Immediately upon finishing school, Mr. Sanders filled a responsible place as traveling representative and inspector for an insurance company with headquarters in Durham, N. C. As inspector, he is listed in thousands of our irregularities, straightening out irregularities which had grown up between the company and agent and the agent and the policymakers. He often entered fields where the accounts were in bad shape and the work run down, but he never left until all matters were properly adjusted. About the only advice he received was how best to proceed in handling some very delicate situations was to "use diploma and go ahead." s- d r r a y e d n e n n. of y, d es y m d e- ss FAMILY MR. and MRS.

Since he began his work in Nashville he has handled for the Colored Y. M. C.

Wide stairs on both sides of the corridor facilitate prompt handling of crowds, and the manager's office, film storage rooms, advertising department, etc., are located over the ticket booth, on the second floor. The front of the building is finished in cream colored brick, faced with white beams of stone and steel, with all woodwork finished in white enamel. Each of the fourteen front doors in the outer tier is of heavy plate glass, trimmed with brass. The interior lighting effect is splendid, there being sufficient light to provide a deluge of brilliancy for an intermission or overture, but properly adjustable through the means of soft shades to furnish just the proper amount of current for a moving picture show. Extensive renovating work was undergone when the building was converted from a road show house to a moving picture theater, resulting in a harmonious blending of decorative effects. With regard to the pictures used, a strong tendency has been noted on behalf of the patrons toward serial productions. The Negro as a rule enjoys a sensational serial chapter better than anything else, with the possible exception of a picture of the Wm. S. Hart type or some A-1 comedy, and as a result the plan of offering many serials at the Bijou has met with popular favor. The operating booth is installed on the third floor, or balcony, and the Power's machines throw out a clear and well-defined picture. The Bijou features a combination of vaudeville, stock companies and first-run pictures. All vaudeville bookings are managed by the Mutual Amusement Circuit of Chattanooga, Tenn., Mr. Sam E. Reevin, Mgr. The Bijou features the best first-run pictures available and these are offered to its patrons in addition to the splendid vaudeville program at popular prices. The colored population of Nashville testify to the attractiveness of their theatre and show their appreciation by turning out every day in vast numbers. The Bijou has one valuable asset not possessed by any other colored theatre in the country. This is an immense and elaborate peerless pipe organ which is used to present music to accompany the moving pictures. This instrument was installed at an expense of $4000,00 and has proven a valuable attraction since the day of its installation. The Bijou is also very fortunate in having assembled and kept intact a faithful and efficient corps of house attaches and employer Mrs. S. B. Carter is the cashier. She is the cashier.

Gordon, upon the completion of auditing the accounts of the Colored "Y" said, "I find the accounts in good condition and think you have done a good job. He made some very favorable comment upon the splendid work which the loyal office assistant, Miss M. B. Starnes, has done during the past four years. It would be worth while for some of the local business men who are interested in this work for young men to drop in and acquaint themselves with the system used in handling the funds. No one pays money into Association unless a receipt is given immediately upon making the payment. The same is written in triplicate form—three at the same time. The person making the payment is the blue one and the yellow is turned the Central Association while the white one is kept on at the Colored Branch Association for future reference. Each of these receipts has exactly the same number and are absolutely the same except they differ in color. The total daily receipts as indicated by the receipt book are deposited daily in the bank. All payments are made by check and on each check is a statement indicating the purpose which the check was issued. For small payments the checks are issued and each item is entered in the Cash Book showing the disposition of the money drawn out by petty cash check. Despite the fact that the system used is an excellent one for handling the funds of the Association, the secretary has suggested that the Committee of Management secure an expert accountant of wide experience who will make a general survey of the records for handling all funds paid into the Association with an eye single to making such improvements as will save time and make the funds more secure. It seems that the community should THE MOTHER AND BABY task. I am delighted to know you are winning out. If I were to make a list of real heroes your name would be well up to the top of the list. You have taken hold of a hard task and have stuck to it like a faithful Christian soldier. While you may not get the recognition you deserve here, I have good grounds for being proud of the fact that it was possible to secure the service of a man of this type and keep him continuously on the job for seven years. Association secretaries who are more generally liked by the business, professional and industrial men allike are no doubt hard to find. Twice Mr. Sanders has been offered a place with a considerable increase in salary and probably with responsibilities no more grave and work no more arduous. It is the hope of the friends of the Colored Y. M. C. A. that the time is now at hand when the white and colored people of Nashville will rally to this work for Negro men and boys. There is probably no Association in THE NEW YORK MUSEUM. --- the country with a broad or field for userism among young men.

Windsor of Rayville, La., and the Twelve-Star Service Pin Presented to Him by the American Red Cross. Having the right to and needing a twelve-star service pin, the Rev. R. H. Windsor of Rayville, La., a zealous Red Cross worker, has been presented with a unique decoration by the American Red Cross. The father of nineteen sons, twelve of whom are with the colors, this genial colored minister of the Baptist church probably holds the record for sons in the military service of the United States. If there are any others with similar or better status, they are yet to be heard from. In the accompanying illustration of the twelve-star pin, topped with the Red Cross insignia, it will be noted that the first bar bears five stars. These represent five individual sons—Bennie, Robbin, Jeff, Johnnie and Archie. The next bar bears two stars representing twins, George and Lafayette; the next bar is similarly decorated, representing William and James, also twins; and the bottom bar, with its three stars, represents the triplets, Matthew Mark and Luke. Eight of the boys are volunteers, and the other four were called in the draft. Upon hearing of the remarkable record of the Windsor family, President Wilson, who is also president of the American Red Cross, wrote to the Rev. Mr. Windsor as follows: "I am writing to say with what interest and admiration I have learned of the fact that twelve of your sons are in the service of our country, and the thirteenth impatiently waiting to follow them in. This is a splendid record, and I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart. The colored troops have proved themselves fine soldiers." REV. J. E. WOOD. D. D.

With The American Armies in France—Colored troops from America already have established themselves in Europe as being cool and reliable fighters in the front line. Both American and French commands say so, and if the Germans ever discovered who it was that held part of the line through Argonne Forest when the boches failed to get through some time ago, the German command has decidedly high respect for American colored infantry. Up and down the line, after the test of year's service, you hear no doubts expressed regarding the colored infantry. The colored doughboys have made good in the line as well as behind. They have proven themselves cool and brave soldiers in the trenches, and gentlemen when back at rest in French towns. You are continually running into units of these colored chaps as you travel up and down the line from Switzerland to Flanders. Pull Off Some Snappy Drilling. Down in a little town some miles back of Verdun the correspondent encountered a large unit of these colored chaps, all from Chicago or thereabouts. They had just come back to rest, after a long period in the Argonne Forest trenches. Like their predecessors, a Negro unit from New York, they had made a great hit with the French officers in high command of the sector. Unlike the New York Negroes, these Chicago boys had encountered no big fighting, and they were disappointed at being taken from the trenches before doing big fighting. The French officers explained that good soldiers can be recognized just as well when they are holding the line as when they are fighting, but the colored doughbags were still disappointed. Finally the French general of the army came down to review the Negro outfit. Down by the creek they went through some of the snappiest exercise even seen, and the French general was delighted. When the review as it had been planned was finished the general turned to the American colonel. "If I were an American general what would I do now?" asked the Frenchman. "Most anything," replied the colonel. "These boys will do anything you wish." "Well, suppose the Germans were across the creek," replied the general, "I'd like to have this nearest company attack them." Difficult Field Maneuver Skillfully Executed. The captain of the nearest company was given the order, and he marched his men across the meadow, where they suddenly disappeared. Pretty soon a whistle sounded and the company was up and running toward the creek. Only a minute, and then they dropped, waiting, then running, always skirmishing in the latest approved French fashion. When they dropped it was with two skirmish lines in advance and two support lines leading off to the rear, with each man dropping over the legs of the chap in front of him. Tin derbies and packs covered the upper portions of their bodies. After a bit of a flank movement by a couple platoons, the supposed German positions along the creek were stormed and taken. The French general was delighted beyond words for a moment. Finally he said, "My oldest veterans could do it no better, even if they were warned it was on the program, and your boys did that extemporaneously." The general remembered the review, and a few days later these colored chaps from Chicago received a fine letter from him, congratulating them on their spirit de corps and their work. French Like Colored Americans. It was interesting to see how these colored boys mixed with the French inhabitants of the village, with whom the Americans were billeted.

The American delegates are going over to speak for patriotic Americans of every trade, profession, sect, kind and color. The American delegates are going over their part or at home that any one among them represents anything but the greatest good to all in this country and the world at large. The negotiations at Versailles will have far-reaching influence throughout all time. The future of all the world is to be mapped out, and that should be done in the broadest spirit of tolerance and understanding. We are not about to settle dispute between nations, but to determine the course of civilization. The work of the peace conference must be fundamental and basic, something that will be to intercourse among all nations whatour constitution has been to the development of our institutions. The peace table will be no place for the representative of any special interests. The above, taken from the Indianapolis Star, should be read by every Negro and every other group of people in this country, for it states the facts just as they are and ought to be. Why should the Negro or any other particular group of people ask for a representative at the peace table? He is an American citizen, and is all the time contending for such and against segregation and the color line, but right here he is asking for the very thing he is always complaining about and the ever thief he as others see him, and quit this nonsense? He is an American, went to the world war as such, fought as other Americans fought, but lo and behold! he now asks to be separated and be given a place at the great peace table as a Negro.

Those who are beseeching the President to name some one to represent them o r rubie views mistake the quality of the task that is before the commissioners-who will frame the peace treaty.

There appears to be a very wide spread misconception of the functions of a peace commissioner. Those selected to represent the United States at Versailles are not to go as the spokesmen of any faction, sections or parties, but to act in the interest of all America and for the future of civilization. The United States cannot grasp the opportunity and the responsibility that will be placed upon them should be selected for one of the most important duties that has FRIDAY ONE, REAL WHEATLESS USE NO BREAD CRACKLE, PASTE OR TELENAUT FOOD CONTAINING WHEAT human relationships and human activity. The formulation of policies for dealing with these phases of industrial health belongs properly to the agencies entrusted with labor administration. Cooperation between the Department of Labor and the Public Health Service for dealing with industrial health problems brings a unified national health policy and action, and at the same time renders the policy and action practical and in accord with needs and ideals of those most concerned. Accordingly, the Secretary of Labor at the request of the Working Conditions Service requested the Secretary of the Treasury to authorize the United States Public Health Service to detail personal to the Division of Industrial Hygiene and Medicine of the Service. As a result of the agreement reached, Dr. A. J.

Down the battle line a large unit of colored troops was encountered at serious business. It was going into the line, taking over hilly and important sector formerly held by French troops. It was the first taste of the trenches, or of the front for the boys in this unit. These men were mostly from the south. They had been trained in the middle west, and some more in France, but never had been on duty under shell fire. Yet on this dark night, while the Germans bombarded, these thousands of colored doughboys, chiefly under direction of colored officers, though some were white, took over a difficult and long sector without a mishap and with less noise than usual, so the French officers said. They have held that long sector for some time now, and there has been no slip, from the farthest outpost to the rear supply truck. U. S. DEPARTMENT OF LABOR. INFORMATION AND EDUCATION SERVICE EDUCATION DIVISION. WASHINGTON. Various employers are appreciative of the fact that output in production is directly influenced by the physical well-being of employees. Preventive methods and medical assistance materially assist in reducing the labor turn-over and in keeping employees in physical condition to do their best work. Accident dangers are comparatively obvious, but the assistance of health experts, sanitarians, and industrial physicians is necessary to discover health hazards. Physical breakdowns, diseases not understood by the ordinary physician, are readily traceable to occupations when occupational hazards are understood. It has become evident that the profession of industrial medicine must be developed, that doctors in plants can assist workers to protect their health by preventatives far more effectually than by remedial methods. An outstanding result of the war is to emphasize the basic importance of tools in present civilization. Tools are instruments by which the will of man and the social group is expressed. By tools the forces of nature are made to serve a determined human purpose. Tools are the products of thought and efforts to achieve—they are the material proof of development. In this war period, users of tools have become indispensable agencies for carrying out national purpose. They are the producing arm of the government which must serve the military arm. The tool user who makes the shell is as essential as the gunner who fires it. It was appreciation of this fundamental principle that convinced the Government that, in order to avoid confusion by multiplicity of orders and standards, labor administration must be centralized. There resulted the proclamation of President Wilson designating the Secretary of Labor as War Labor Administrator. The Government has consistently maintained that production would be furthered by maintaining standards in industry which promoted the health, safety, and betterment of employees. The Division of Industrial Hygiene and Medicine will direct the formulation of sanitary and health codes for industries. The direct relation between health and efficiency is not so apparent as the results of sudden and complete disability from accidents. But the loss from decreased efficiency and energy among a number of workers extended over a long period of time is far greater than the loss from accidents. Cooperation with the United States Public Health Service will make possible extensive research work necessary to establish fundamental scientific principles as the basis for proper working conditions. In order that there might be uniformity of standards for working conditions in all industries, there was created in the Department of Labor of the Working Conditions Service. The duties of the Service as briefly enumerated by the Secretary of Labor, are as follows: "To examine into working conditions in war industries; to determine the standards as to conditions which should be maintained in those industries; to adopt rules embodying such standards and explaining them; to determine the best means for securing the adoption and maintenance of these standards and to cooperate with State authorities for the above purposes." In addition to the work which the United States Public Health Service will perform for the Working Conditions Service, it is also authorized to do all inspections and investigations into matters pertaining to the sanitation of plants engaged in war work and into the health of workers in such industries, and into the sanitation and housing conditions surrounding the home of war workers. In addition, the Ordnance Department of the War Department has delegated responsibility for mechanical safety in ordnance plants. A field force of specialists in industrial hygiene, sanitation, safety and production engineering, technically trained and of broad practical experience, has been organized which will be under the supervision of Bernard J. Newman. This inspection force will necessarily develop data which will be exceedingly valuable to the Working Conditions Service and to the Bureau of Standards in the formulation of codes, and will not only give manufacturers expert service in ways that will help to increase production, but will safeguard the workers from dangerous health hazards and occupational injuries. Although the organic act creating the Department of Labor provides that the function of the Department shall be, among other things, to improve the working conditions of the wage earners of the United States, the Department had not undertaken specifically work of this character until the urgent need demonstrated by war emergencies. It has become increasingly evident that working conditions have a direct cause and relationship to labor turn-over. Moving many men from civil life to military service made it necessary to exercise the greatest wisdom in utilizing our limited human reserves. The extravagance of a high labor turn-over has been emphasized by prevailing high wages, thus increasing the costs chargeable to labor turn-over. Thus there has come a new interest in bettering working conditions and an appreciation that such betterment has an economic advantage and pays the employer in every sense of the term. The Division of Labor Administration will deal with attitude and policies of the management toward the employed and the personal relations between employers and employed. It is now generally conceded that the management in production has a greater duty than supplying buildings, materials, tools, and hiring and discharging workers. Once the principles are established that there is a money value to the management in long-time service, in maintaining such relations with employees that they are willing to continue in service of a company, and that placing each worker where he can do his best work, the management becomes interested in industrial safety and sanitation and in the principles of labor administration, or what is commonly known as employment management. There have been approaches to the study of labor administration, known variously as time studies, scientific management, fatigue studies, motion studies, industrial auditing, etc. It has been demonstrated that proper methods of labor administration result in increased production and decreased cost. Reducing the labor turn-over decreases cost of production. The Chief of this Section will be Dr. William M. Leiserson, of Toledo, Ohio. There are already other Federal agencies operating in this field. It is the purpose of the Working Conditions Service to cooperate with these other agencies and Working conditions in widest sense comprise environment, relations between employer and employed—all that makes up life within the industry. For administrative purposes there are three divisions in the Working Conditions Service—Division of Industrial Hygiene and Medicine, Division of Labor Administration and Division of Safety Engineering. Since there are in operation other agencies with the specialized function of dealing with wages and hours as controversial questions between employers and employed, they will not be dealt with as such by this Service. The proclamation of the President instructing all governmental departments dealing with public health questions to utilize the United States Public Health Service for that work was a step toward unity of action and purpose in health problems. Industrial health is closely related to community health and the general scientific principles underlying public health problems and industrial health problems are identical. However, organization, methods of operation, special occupational problems in the industrial health field are fundamentally labor problems, affecting directly NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY DECEMBER 6, 1918. ```markdown ``` COLORED MEN OF NASHVILLE WAKE UP BIG Hustling Bustling NASHVILLE The one city offering to you more and greater opportunities than any other city in he world.

VOLUME XIV LABOR DEPARTMENT TO WORK ASSIMULATION OF ALIENS AMERICA A MELTING POT—TO BE TRAINED IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS—EDUCATIONAL WORK IN COMMUNITIES. With the coming of peace, the Bureau of Naturalization of the U.S. Department of Labor is charged with continuing the work, which the war has shown to have been already so well established, of cementing the many races and peoples represented in this country's population into one homogeneous nation. The achievement of national unity, involving the assimilation of 17,500,000 alien born residents of this country, is the peculiar task of this bureau, which is beginning this season the greatest campaign in its history to effect its aims. Realization of the ideal of America as the melting pot in which the peoples of many lands are fused into a new and characteristic national type is the purpose of this bureau's Americanization work. Last May, Congress passed a law to Americanize every man and woman of foreign birth in this country, and it chose the Bureau of Naturalization to have charge of the citizenship training which will be carried on through the public schools. Foreigners are becoming citizens by hundreds of thousands every year, and the war has been much to promote interest in America among the aliens living here. They are still however, many difficultities the way of a successful accomplishment of the great plan to make every inhabitant of this country American in thought, word, and action. For example, there are 500,000 foreigners in New York City who can not read, write, or speak English. Probably 100 languages and dialects are spoken here. There are between ten and twelve million persons in this country who owe allegiance to other nations. In no other country in the world is there so great a percentage of aliens. The Bureau of Naturalization is more closely in touch with the foreign than any other government organization. Through its naturalization examinations, has gained acquaintance with about three million immigrants, and during the last four years the schools have begun their great work of instructing the millions of others in the essentials of American citizenship. This great educational work is going on in nearly 2,000 communities, the home cities of millions of immigrants. Hundreds of thousands of these have taken out their first papers, and the bureau has prevailed upon the school authorities wherever these candidates live to open evening classes in which first-paper men and women may be taught what they ought to know about the American government. The first thing taught is the English language—conversation, reading, and writing. Every foreigner is ambitious to be told that he speaks English like an American. The Government sends an urgent appeal to every applicant for citizenship, asking him to go to an evening class in the public schools of his city. It also furnishes free text books to these applicants, and an will recognize the work of the public schools in a certificate of graduation, presently jointly by the Government and the schools to foreigners when they come into American citizenship. Thus far, the surface has been barely scratched, for less than two per cent of the aliens in this country have applied for citizenship instruction. The Americanization of the other 98 per cent is the almost herculean task the Bureau of Naturalization faces. The aid of every resident of the community must be enlisted in the work, if it is to be effective. Employers of allens can aid in the (Continued on page 4) (1) NASHVILLE GLOBE. FOURTEENTH ANNIVERSARY STARTED BY FOUR NASHVILLE MEN—LATE CHAS. H. BURRILL, DEAN OF COMPANY—LATE JOS. O. BATTLE, EDITOR. As a disseminator of healthy, wholesome news, printing all the news while it is fit to print, fighting the battles of the people who stand for constructiveness and progress, helping to engender civic pride into the several communities, advocating all men up, preaching right living, has been the policy and the mission of the Nashville Globe from its first issue. Such will be the policy of the publication as long as it remains in the hands and under the control of the present management. As the Nashville Globe approaches its fourth anniversary, perhaps some of the readers will be able to know something of the history and the beginning of the publication. The need of such a publication before the Globe came upon the scene was plainly evident. The matter was discussed and there were scores in the city who felt that the city would not be in the progressive class of other cities until it could produce a publication that would be a credit to the education center such as Nashville claims to be. Four men of the city, therefore, after a conference agreed in the fall of 1904 to undertake the Herculean task of giving to Nashville and the state of Tennessee a distinctively secular paper which would represent all the people, one that would discuss the healthy news, one that would be the health news and one that would be a polememian piece for them, their tribune, as it were, in every court where an advocate is needed. This quartet was made of men of experience, men who had dealt with the public, men who had been before the public for a number of years. They had the advantage of age and youth, hence it seems they went into the organization well prepared, knowing full well the obstacles that awaited them, the mountains that had to be scaled, the rivers that had to be bridged or tunneled, and the great sea of discontentment M.

It was said by one writer that old men were for counsel while young men were for war. This quartet had in it those elements. The dean of the four, the guiding star of the quart, the man of mature years and ripe experience who was in the conference and who became one of the four was the late Charles Henry Burrill, the man of mature years, recognized as the best informed, the fitted, the most capable Negro in the United States in the Art.

It was his wise counsel and his great experience that gave to the quartet what was needed in council. "Father Burrill" as he was known throughout the city of Nashville, became the secretary of the organization, a position he hold up to him. He was also a member of the quartet was the late Jos. Oliver Battle. Perhaps Nashville has never known a young man with more sterling qualities, one who was more popular with all classes one who was more firm in his convictions, one who was better read, better poster on events of the day, knowing more history and not better workman in his line. He was the first editor. It was his wise, sane, healthful editorials, belching forth from week to week which were read far and wide, which were quoted by newspapers, which were standing. His history of standing in the editorial chair that built for the Globe the reputation as a safe journal, an advocate of the rights and principles of the people, were not only industrious, but were a part and parcel of the community to which they live. He was always to be trusted and could be depended in the dark hour of the night to present the editorial columns. Whenever he used the editorial "we" it was understood it was not the view of Joe Battle, but it was the sentiment of the community in which he. Even after he had made health he continued his contributions as editor until he was entirely incapacitated and went to the Great Beyond. The third member of the quartet was Dock A. Hart, who had had nearly a score of years of experience in the printing establishments as composer, printer and manager. His mechanical experience was thrown into the organization and from the very outset the mechanical appearance of the Nashville Globe, through his great knowledge, stood up and loomed. Mr. Hart was the first president of the organization, serving in that capacity for several years. He afterwards became manager, the position he held for several years, and print and publishing houses and (Continued on page A.) MEMORIAL LETTER TO PRESI DENT WILSON FOR RIGHTS. Ask for Commission on rights for Colored Citizens Boston, Mass, Nov. 17, 1918. The President, White House, Washington, D. C. Your Excellency: Citizens of Massachusetts today assembled at Tremont Temple in memorial service commemorative of the life of the late Geraldine Louis Trotter, solemnly appeal to you, in her name for justice for her Race. When the world is acclaiming the magnificent victory for democracy in which this Nation, under your wise leadership, shares so gloriously, 12 millions of our Colored American citizens are saddened because of rights still denied them. By the side of the press report announcing peace there appeared an account of the lynching of a Colored citizen. Colored men and women responded to your call to the Colors with such patriotic fervor as to win your commendation for "the splendid loyalty of the Race," yet those men, after all they have sacrificed, are proscribed in the army and denied enlistment, except as servant to the nation, and segregation continue while American women, many wives and mothers and sisters of those soldiers, suffer humiliating indignities on account of color. But we do not despair. We have abiding faith in the calm, sober judgement of the American people. We believe that a commission, vested with adequate powers and composed in part of Colored men, ought to be appointed to investigate and report fully, on this subject, at once. Therefore, Your Excellency, we earnestly pray that you lay our cause before the People in the form of a message to a joint session of Congress, as is your custom, that this vital issue of justice for so many American citizens, may have its proper place in the readjustment now racing us. We respectfully urge favorable consideration. Sir, in your own eloquent words—"for the right is more precious than peace, and we shall fight for the things which we have always carried nearest our hearts,—for democracy, for the right of those who sub unt to authority to have a voice in their own government."

World War closes—Organize And Meet for Abolition of Race Auto- cracy at Home—Colored Delegates, On to Washington, Dec. 16, 1918. Foreseeing coming events, the National Equal Rights League of Colored Americans in 11th Annual and National Convention assembled in Chicago Sept. 19, 1918, adopted and sent forth to the race a plan for a national race representative Congress for race petitioners who shall proceed abroad and to the United States represented Americans presented at the Peace Council Table. The plan is the formation at once of local equal rights league or committee to elect and send a delegate (one additional for every 50 members over the first 50) to such a Congress at Washington, D. C. One delegation can be sent even if the members number less than 50. The time set was Jan. 1st, 1919. The League's officers have set the date forward to Dec. 16, 1918 in view of early closing of the war. All existing Colored organizations are asked to affiliate with the League and send one delegate for every 50 members. This applies to religious, civic, political, fraternal, industrial and literacy race bodies. National organizations working for equality for Colored Americans will beasked to send 2 delegates. These delegates chosen by race organizations locally will assemble and elect race envoys to be sent to the seat of the international peace conference. Hasten to organize your league, Colored Americans, in every community and elect your delegates. Never in our time will there be another opportunity like this to ask the world for justice and consistency. Upon those of us, and God grant that they may be few, who now, will be the responsibility of our future because left the "Slaves of the 20th century." The League secretary humily prays the race, in the name of his departed wife a bairy to its cause, to vindicate its honor and move for a share of the world democracy.

GOVERNMENT AID IN FINDING TEACHERS Fifty thousand teachers' places are vacant, and 120,000 persons are teaching this year who have never before taught a class. Several thus and schools have actually cosed or have remained unopened because it was impossible for the local trustees to find teachers for them. The lowered standards in many places and the total lack of instruction in others mean a loss to the children of the Nation which cannot be replaced. The shortage of teachers affects nearly every state in the Union. Many urgent requests have been made for the assistance of the United States Bureau of Education, for it is clearly impossible for some of the States to man their schools with the teachers available in their own borders. President Wilson has been moved by this condition. He has directed the establishment in the Bureau of Education of a new division to assist local officers in finding teachers to meet the emergency, and he has written an open letter of appeal to all who are qualified and able to teach, urging them to signify their willingness to do so by registering with the new School Board Service Division of the Bureau of Education, in Washington. Schools seeking teachers will be put in touch with registrants, with the expectation of employment in the regular way. No charge whatever will be made to either the registrants or to the teachers in the service. It is well known that in every community there are women who formerly taught, whose husbands are now in the Army or in other branches of the government service, or whose homes do not demand all their time. Such women are specially needed in the schools now. A. B. REV. A. J. STOKES. member of the Peace Commission. Treasurer National Baptist Conven- tion, Incorporated, Montgomery, Ala. High schools all over the country have suffered from the demand for men of scientific training for service in munition pants, the chemical warfare branch of the Army, and the like. The shortage of teachers of chemistry and physics is particularly acute. It is pointed out that this shortage might be met in many cases if physicians, pharmacists, and other professional men would take classes in nearby schools for a part of each day. Manual training departments have suffered at least as much as the scientific branches, for they require men as teachers more than any other kind of high school work. Here too, it is suggested by those in charge of Bureau of Education's new division that the part time plan might well be applied. There are skilled mechanics who have had high school education and would make excellent teachers if they would consent to assist even temporarily in the work of the schools. The Commissioner of Education calls upon all these classes of people to perform a public service which would be not only important to the Nation but profitable to themselves as well. No finer display of patriotism could be made than by teaching them the importance that they exist. All who are fitted for the work are urged to heed the appeals of the Government officers and tender their services to the local school authorities and to register with the United States Bureau of Education, Washington. The lack of teachers is expected to continue until the return of the soldiers and others called away from home by the war, and probably longer; it will certainly ast during the remainder of the present school year. THE WHITE HOUSE Washington, Nov. 12, 1918—Conditions arising from the war have drawn great numbers of teachers from the public schools, colleges and universities. Unless their places can be supplied by others whose education and experience fit them for teaching, but who for one reason or another have recently withdrawn school work from the children and youth of the entire country must suffer an irreparable loss. This shortage of capable teachers, especially acute in some districts and in certain lines of education, is esti- REV. A. J. STO member of the Peace Co Treasurer National Baptist Conven- mated by the Bureau of Education at 50,000 for the various schools and institutions of Higher Education in the United States. It is the patriotic duty of all who can temporarily return to the ranks of teaching, to offer their services and to notify the School Board Service Division of the Bureau of Education, Washington, D.C. of the offer. Often wives of soldiers and others in government service could return to teaching in grades of school work in which they have had recent experience. Former teachers of chemistry, manual training and the like now engaged in other work not so vital to public needs, might again take up teaching for a time. Ministers and others who were once teachers might serve a neighboring high school on time until war demands are relaxed. School boards, city superintendents and other school authorities should seek out such persons and prevail upon those of especial fitness to come back into the profession at least temporarily.

HAILEY OF DALLAS, TEX. About sixty representatives of three branches of the Baptist family will be in this city December 12th for a Peace Commission. While it is expected there will be more than sixty in attendance, only this number will make up the conference. There will be twenty-five members of the incorporated branch of the National Baptist Convention, twenty-five from the unincorporated branch and ten from the Southern white Baptist convention. From what can be learned after conversation with the various representatives of the Baptist family here, it is supposed there will be quite a number of leading Baptists from the three diffent branches who will come to the city merely to be in close proximity to the conference. The meeting was called by Dr. O. L. Halley, white, of the Southern Baptist Convention whose headquarters are in Dallas Tex. Among those who will be here are Dr. E. P. Jones, president of the National Baptist Convention, unincorporated, with headquarters at Evanston, Ill., and Dr. E. C. Morris, president of the National Baptist Convention, styled as Incorporated, with headquarters at Helena, Ark. These will lead their respective delegations.

Boston, Mass., Nov. 27, 1918—The Woman Suffragists have publicly asked President Wilson for a place on the official peace delegation of the U. S. as representing an element here needing democracy. Should not a Colored American, and a radical, be one of the official envoys as representing the problem in democracy in this republic? China and Japan have declared that at the Peace Council, race and color discrimination among nations must be abolished at the Peace Council. Now the chance is now offered for every circle or community of colored Americans to take part in choosing and sending at least unofficial race petitioners to Versailles to talk to the envoys of France and other nations and urge them to include our proscriptions as one of the wrongs righted by the new world democracy. The National Equal Rights League provides this opportunity in this way. Any person is eligible to form an equal rights league which can elect a delegate at a public meeting or a conference, and one more for every 50 members over the first 50. One can be sent on even less than 50 members. Literary, any race fraternal, civic, literary, political, industrial or religious body, is eligible to elect affiliated delegates with equal right to vote. Thirdly, national bodies working for our equal rights are entitled to elect 2 delegates-at-large. On this basis a National Colored Representative Congress will be held by the National Equal Rights League, John Wesley, A. M. E. Zion Church, 14th and Corean Street, N. W., Washington, D.
