National Conference Called by "Y" Board
Colored and White Women Discuss Forces Affecting Womanhood—Explain Methods and Administration of Y.W.C.A.
The executive committee of the National Board of Young Women's Christian Association was hostess to nineteen colored women selected at large from the Union States to a one-day conference at 600 Lexington avenue December 7th. Five of these women are actively engaged in Association work but are women of large experience along all matters pertaining to Negro womanhood.
After a general presentation of forces affecting all womanhood and especial Negro womanhood, the meeting was given over to the women for general discussion. The discussion was carried on with manifest interest on the part of both races and in an atmosphere of mutual friendiness. The women realized better than ever before the methods and administration of the organization. The white women were face to face with candid and logical thinking colored women and appreciated it.
The Negro women pledged themselves to realize in the cause of a rightful distinction of differences in order to promote unity. They excelled in appreciation and confidence. Alling the conference and they recommended the splendid work of Miss Eva D. Bowles in her attempt to illustrate the two groups of other possibilities for closer cooperation between the women of the two races in their common goal of service for all girls and the present effort for the enlargement of opportunities for developing leaders among young colored women. A particular request by the visiting delegation was that as soon as it was possible the colored women should have representation of the two groups of other.

Arkansas Supreme Court Reverscs Elaine Verdicts
In Cases of Six Condemned Men, Court Re-opens Question ofHaving Negro Jurors on Juries Which are Trying Negroes
December 6, 1920, the Supreme Court of Arkansas handed down a decision regarding the cases of six of the Negroes who twice had been condemned for alleged participation in the Elaine riots. The ground for this decision was that the lower court had refused to hear testimony offered to show that the inmation had been used in selecting the jury in Trial Court, in that jurisdiction on the panel.
This decision is one of the most important and far reaching which has relied relative to the rights of Negroes. The importance of this decision is that it reopens again the whole question of the right to have jurisdiction over Negroes.
Rolls in a recent admonition to the use of Negro inmates and policemen in the jurisdiction where they are considered to be in charge of crime would be a great relief and incentive to the arrests, etc. would be made in the court, and the jury would tend to secure for them the court.
United States Supreme Court, January 19, 1910, the Supreme Court, on the ground that it did not have jurisdiction, dismissed the appeal.
In 1909, the United States Supreme Court decided a somewhat similar case where Marcellus Thomas, a Negro convicted of murder in Harris County, Texas, appealed his case on the ground of absence of evidence from the jury which reported the verdict. The Supreme Court affirmed the conviction and said: "It may be that the jury commissioners did not give the

In 1900; the United States Supreme Court decided a somewhat similar case where Marcellus Thomas, a Negro convicted of murder in Harris County, Texas, appealed his case on the ground of absence of Negroes from the jury which rendered the verdict. The Supreme Court affirmed the conviction and said: "It may be that the jury commissioners did not give the Negro race full pro rata with the white race in the selection of the grant pand perit jurors in this case, still this would not be evidence of discrimination. If they fairly and honestly endowed no discharge, their duty; and did not in fact discriminate against the Negro race in the selection of the jury here then the Constitution of the United States has not been violated."
Previous to this time, however, the Supreme Court in the cases of Rogers v. Alabama and Carter v. Texas, decided that the exhibition of qualified Negroes from jury service on grand and pettit juries on account of their race and color is a denial to Negroes on trial, in courts where such exclusion is allowed them, an equal protection of the law and so bring in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.

By CHARLES R. NALL
Washington, D. C.-H. Dr. Emmett Scott tells another Howard football game the local wise men will go crazy, because the last one brought to Washington more practicing politicians, pilgrims and patriots than have been seen in this city of calm repose since the inauguration of President Taft. They came from Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, New York, Virginia and elsewhere, and the Whiteclaw Hotel, which was the scene of many conferences, took on the aspect of a boom factory.
Judging from the number of patriots who are willing to sacrifice their time for the modest stipend of $4,300 per year as Register of the Treasury it would seem that this position ranks as the most important, although it does not appear to have been a financial stepping stone for any of the former registers whose signature on the Currency, was the proud boast of several gentlemen whose names have been all but forgotten—probably on account of the War, charitably speaking.
Prominent among the score of names mentioned in connection with this position were those of Andrew Stevens, James C. Napier, Silas Harris, Phil Brown, R. S. Abbott, Aaron Malone and Fred Patterson of Greenfield, Ohio. The rumors obtain that Senator Penrose has promised the place to Stevens, that Senator Spencer is backing Harris, that Napier is in the hands of his friends, that Will Hays will look after Phil Brown, that the Negro Press association is for Malone, Abbot, Harris and the solid Illinois delegation. On account of the well-remembered attitude of one of the gentlemen on the question of segregation in the Government Departments, his boom is not being considered seriously by the busy slate makers.
Local Man for Recorder.
For Recorder of Deeds there are almost as many candidates, and the names of Col. Lincoln Johnson, Col. Otis B. Duncan, J. Finley Wilson, Dr. J. R. A. Crossland, Thomas Plem.

ink, Perry W. Howard and Gilchrist Stewart have been mentioned most favorably by the plum tree decorators, but it is the general impression that a local man will function in this job. If so, these might at last be a possibility of developing some bright young man as a real estate title searcher, something that has not been done heretofore. But how Harris, Malone and Corsahad, all from Missouri, and Abbott and Duncan, both from Illinois, can keep their political wires from crossing, is a Chinese puzzle to the local dopesters. Then, too, there is the Ohio situation with several distinguished citizens to be chloroformed, and it is thought that Fleming will experience some difficult challenges with Charlie Cottill, Harry Smith, Fred Patterson and our old friend, Ralph Tytler, who made a wire finish and is still doing bungees with his millionaire newspaper friend in Columbus.

Savannah, Ga.,—A gruesome and blood-curdling experience was that of Mrs. Hattie Smith of Youngstown, Ohio, who reached this city from Jacksonville, Florida, to which place she escaped by the aid of a friendly white woman and her husband from the mob-infested region around Oceo, Ela, where Mrs. Smith had been for two weeks visiting her sister-in-law.
The sister-in-law, her child and husband are dead—burned to death in their home from which escape was barred by the murderous mob and Mrs. Smith is alive only because she managed to slip out undetected and lay in the heavy underbrush for four days, without food and clad only in a thin night-shirt, her sleeping apparel.
On the fourth day a hunter's dog, running back and forth in the bushes, discovered her and began barking. The hunter, a white man, approached to see what game his dog had found and spied the colored woman. Seeing the white face, panic again enveloped the woman and she attempted to run, but four days without food had weakened her too much.
The white man was a Good, Samaritan—he took off his coat and covered her with it, went home and sent his wife with food and decept clothing. The white couple, fearing the mob, did not dare attempt rescuing the woman during the day, but that night they brought their horse and wagon, put Mrs. Smith in and drove ten miles to another railroad station. They gave her enough money to pay her railroad fare to Jacksonville and put her on the train.
Reaching this point in safety she was aided in reaching Savannah. As soon as her story became known to Savannah people, every possible aid was rendered her. Medical attention was provided, and funds were quickly raised to furnish her an outfit of clothing and pay for transportation to her home in Youngstown. Mrs. Smith told the following story of her experiences:
"I went down to Ocore from Youngstown to visit my sister-in-law, my husband's sister, and had jacques there just two weeks on the night before the Presidential election. My

WOOD BUYS IN 7TH AVE.
PROPERTY AT AUCTION
The attempt to cause J. B. W. Wood Co. Inc. to mortgage its beddings at Fourth avenue and 12th street was immediately overcome by the action of Mr. Wood on Tuesday, December 14, when he bid in the property at a foreclosure sale held under instructions from James J. Walker, referee.
Mr. Wood expressed a determination to protect the stockholders in his company and his action in bidding in the property is based, he says, on his purpose to save loss to supporters and investors.
This property is a five-story brick, brownstone trumming, situated at the north-east corner of 12th street and Fourth avenue, and contains three stories and nine apartments of six and seven rooms each, with a rental value of approximately $4,000 per annum.

$100,000 RAISED BY CAROLINA CONVENTION
(Special to The New York Anz)
Greenville, N. C.-North Carolina Baptist, in the annual meeting here of the Baptist State Convention, raised $200,000 for missions and education. Show University at Raleigh and ten or twelve secondary schools in various section of the state will receive the bulk of this money.
The Rev. O. J. Allen of Statesville, h. C., presided at the opening sessions. The new president is the Rev. O. S. Bulloch of High Point, and the Rev. G. W. Warthen in the field secretary.
Prominent visitors in attendance were the Rev. C. S. Brown president of the Lott Corry Convention, and the Rev. A. B. Vincent, formerly of Raleigh, now residing in New York City.
The mass meeting held under the auspices of the Brooklyn Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, at the opera-house of the Brooklyn Academy of Music, Thursday evening, December 9, was potable for the magnificent audience which responded to the call and the intense interest manifested in the proceedings. The object of the meeting was to voice a determined protest against mob murder and to call upon Congress to adopt legislation to put an end to the practice by making lynching a Federal offence, punishable in the Federal courts.
A unique feature of the meeting was the fact that admission to the ordinance was by paid tickets, and that every seat was occupied. Besides this a fund was started to support the campaign of the organization in its fight against lynching, and over $3,000 was pledged for that purpose.
No Prayers at Anti-Lynching Meeting Subject of Criticism
Brooklyn Ministers Protest Omission of Asking God'sBlessing---The Lord'sName Mentioned Twice During Meeting
Failure on somebody's part to have an invocation included in the program at the Anti-Lynching Meeting held at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on Thursday evening, December 9, has brought forth criticism from a number of the praying Christians who were present. Several ministers have referred to the omission. The Rev. Dr. J. R. Waters, pastor of Newman Memorial M. E. Church, Dewey place and Herkimer street, Brooklyn, in his Sunday night sermon, displored the omission, which he characterized as a deportable oversight.
Dr. Walter N. Beckman, president of the Brooklyn branch, opened the meeting and stated the objects of the organization in a clear and convincing manner.
Congressman Dyer Writes
A letter was read from Representative Leonidas C. Dyer, of Missouri, who introduced the anti-lynching bill in the House, and who was announced to speak, in which he stated his inability to be present on account of the coming up of the immigration bill. Instead he sent a letter to the meeting, in which he said among other things:
"The Congress of the United States has been reluctant to enact a law to punish people who participate in these horrible murders and taking of life. Hoping that the States would protect life in such instances, it appears, however, that there is no chance for that, as in many States, the authorities have almost failed to prevent on account of this crime.
"The truth of the matter is that in many of the states the local authorities are neither willing nor able to protect the lives of the people against whom this race prejudice exists. The States do not protect life in many instances, as is noted in the State of South Carolina. This State has admirable anti-lynching laws, yet over 100 Negroes have been lynched there during the time this law has been on the statute books.
"The bill which I am urging provides not only that persons who participate in these lynchings in which lives are host shall be guilty or murder and tried in the United States Courts, but it also provides a penalty against the citizens of the county in which the crime occurred by compelling the payment of a large amount of money to the relatives of the person or persons whose lives are thus

The Rev. Dr. C. D.

A Serious Blunder.
In his letter, Dr. Patterson writes as follows:
To the editor of The Age:
Being a citizen and pastor living in Brooklyn, I beg permission to say a word through your columns regarding the Anti-Truffling Meeting held in the Academy of Music Thursday evening, December 6th.
In many respects the meeting was representative and there is no doubt about its influence reaching for in the effort to suppress the barbarous practice lyrifying. As to numbers the race made a good showing. In consideration of the speakers they all lived up to the standard; and the public press has announced that more than Kafka was collected and submitted. I am happy that I can say that a number of

Dr. Wallet Presided:
Dr. Owen M. Waller was then introduced as the chairman of the court, who set forth the aggravated nature of the crime of lynching and mob murder, together with the variety of causes assigned as a pretest for this form of law enforcement. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, former president of the National Federation of Women's Clubs, who recently returned from her mission as delegate to the International Council of Women, held this year in Norway, told of her experiences in Texas, while helping to organize a branch of the National Association. Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the association, gave an account of his investigation of a recent outbreak of mob violence in Florida, where a reputable colored citizen was lynched for attempting to vote and the colored section was set on fire and over fifty of the residents either burned to death or as he escaped from the flames. He appealed to the emperor of lynching in behalf of the people of the South, in order that the coming generation should not be infected with lust of mob murder and savagery. James Weldon Johnson made an earnest and effective appeal for funds to further the work of the organization in behalf of establishing law and order, by the carrying out of an intensive campaign (for the suppression of lynching) through Federal legislation. His appeal was supplemented in a few practical words by Miss amie Burroughs, of Washington, D.C., who after pledging (Continued On Shrine Proof)

Youth and Beauty Chats
The smile within, and the smile without, the smile we wear each day; The angry heart, the sullier pout, the tears that stain and stay. They show the soul within the soul, that shines behind the bar; They make your future glad or sad, your beauty make or may.
Today's article finishes the course in Beauty Exercises of the face and body, also the rules on the general care of the body. However I will be glad to write each week or any subject pertaining to Youth and Beauty, which the readers of Tum. may suggest. Direct your suggestions to
No. 21. Place the feet of the four fingers on the ears and thumbs; begin a circular motion, upward and backwards, without moving the fingers, over the flesh. Repeat this motion to a hundred times.
No. 22. Place the flat of the four fingers on both hands on the forehead, exercise the muscles of the vexibles and forbids by lifting up the muscles of the forehead at quick jerks; compone for about two minute.
No. 23. Spread the first and second fingers to form a V, put in the mouth sideways; hold zigzag, now close by drawing in the corner on the mouth; repeat twenty five times.
These exercises will give play to every muscle of the face and neck, and if carried out regularly will reduce heavy muscle and build up slabby tissue.
ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
One of the queries that came to me during the past week covers the cause of so many poor complexions that I will print the full letter.
DEAR MADAM:
I am a reader of Tom New York Act, and having also read the column of Beauty Chats, I thought you could perhaps help me a little bit. I am greatly annoyed with blushiness on my face that are left from former examples, also enlarged pores. Would appreciate your advice in this matter.
ANSWER: Purple involves the pores in which this comes, and when the pus is exposed out, when the more is formed due to the forming of the tissue, which leaves a dark spot of alliance, and it often takes the month to grow out. Then it is more than enough to leave an enlarged pimple. This pimple should never be opened until the pus has been cleared of the surface of the skin when it will not be necessary to use pressure to remove it. The treatment for this condition is allowing that which will improve the circulation of the face, helping the good health tissue to grow. This treatment of moisture of bezele in a hard and well drained surface, where it out both toools and apply to it, is necessary to prevent the pus from forming in this manner, then dry and apply to it.

Do not use any soap on the feet during this treatment. The last thing at night before retiring it is well to let cold water run over the feet.

TINCTURE IODINE ..... 1 ounce

Shoes are the cause of most foot troubles. When I see women hobbling along on heels that are inches too high for their insteps, I wonder at the shoe man that would sell such a misfit. How much heavier the foot looks in a sensible walking boot, with plenty of room for the foot to relax in; also how much better the nerves of the whole body would be.

Women Who Suffer
Should find relief from their sufferings by taking the woman's temperance Tonic and Nervine, which was helped so many women, some of them right in your neighborhood.

It is called Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and can be had in every drug store in the land, in tablet or liquid form.

Writing a certain degree of proof that will prevent undue familiarity is not necessary that the social norm assume such a degree of strictness will cause him to bend hardword, difficulty of growing and counting of
address will always tend to further the promotion of good relations between the workers and the people he may seek to influence.
As to the technical training required, a college course would not be amiss, with special attention to psychology and kindred subjects applicable to his work. But the person who would take up the career of social and welfare work should first make sure of his own walk and conversation, as he will occupy a position in which he will become a heaven light to the community and any false step or dereliction of duty will be carefully noted and serve as a reflection upon the work in which he may be engaged.
The man or woman engaged in welfare work must always watch his step, not only that he may not fall, but that he may not bring reproach upon his work. If our correspondent feels that he can measure up to what may be expected of him as a man of light and leading, let him follow the bent of his inclination.
WHY THIS COLORED SCHOOL?
A colored school, or a school conducted solely for colored pupils, in the city of New York, seems an anachronism in this year of our Lord. And yet such an institution exists in the neighborhood of Columbus Hill, supported by the Children's Aid Society. About 450 children are said to attend this school, all of whom are colored. The studies are carried as far as the seventh grade, when the pupils are turned out to the neighboring public schools, where they should have been sent at first.
According to the testimony of the principal of one of these public schools, the pupils turned out from the Henricia Day School, the institution in question, are retarded in their educational progress from two to three years, by their previous training in this corrugated institution. If this is so, and the principal is, If this is so, and the principal quiet undoubtedly speaks from the we would monitor as to the keeping up of the children.
The public schools of New York City are established and maintained by the taxagee of New York, and that means the men and women who pays rent or owns a house, for the education of the children of those taxpayers, regardless of race or color. While these schools may not be perfect in all their details, they afford the best means for acquiring mental and moral training, that the human effort has provided. None of the children brought up in the area is so sound as impaired of the advantages offered by the public schools. The colored children of Columbia Hall should and their children to the nearest public school, as soon as they become of school age. There can be no good reason why these children should have two or three years of scholastic training, because they are sent to a school specially maintained for colored children. The question arises. Why any special school in this neighborhood as all?
ASSIMILATING RACES.
At a meeting of the National Committee for Constitutional Immigration Legislation, held in New York last week, a Precinctarian代表 from Brooklyn, the B. William Carter, who served period of some attempt at prosecution, in favor of the Japanese, in burdened time as follows according to the Constitution:
Any attempt to explain Asiaes with an intention to the ground that they assimilate would be a mistake. We know that there are two fares that are not assimilable and those are the Asian and the African fares. It is greatly to be condemned whether Roy William Carter know what he was talking about when he turned out to prove truth. It would be interesting first to find out what he understands by the term "assimilable", if it conveys any meaning at all to his intellectual emplement. A scholarly writer of this teacher's denomination, in discussing this question of racial assimilation, wrote as follows:
Now, assimilation of the races is not necessarily a physiological act, but a psychological act, primarily and purely. I possess good intellect and moral character. The Negro, for example, has been assimilated into and incorporated into the male model of moral parity for the African-American race. It is more assimilated and not assimilated. We can assimilate the Japanese and all their ethnicities. We assimilate in an act or process involving many acts which are personal and brains of our American tradition. It instincts love for and respect for the African-American race. We assimilate in our own patriotism and becoming a part and part of the economic life of the race.
No doubt. Bokhy pastor commits the above definition of association by must admit that so far as the African race is concerned, those descendants of it who have grown up on American soil have absorbed the spirit of Americanism and become in thought and being full gledged Americans. They have shed their blood and given their lives for the country which they helped to make free from Bunker Hill to the Hindenburg line. They have absorbed its education and shared its diversions, on the track track the ball field and in the porring. So thoroughly Americanized has the Negro in America become that he recognizes no other country as his own. He has accepted its standards of excellence in industry, science and art and does his best to lift us to them.
The case of the Japanese differs in a great degree. The latter has adopted such Occidental customs as recommended themselves to his approval and shown himself a diligent student and worker. But whether he is prepared to accept the whole program of Americanism remains to be seen.
THE NEW YORK AGE. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1920
"MUSIC IN THE SOUTH."
Some weeks ago the "News-Scimitae" of Memphis, Tenn., published an editorial article more than a column in length under the heading, "Music in the South." The article opened with the question once asked by Sidney Smith, "Who reads an American book?" The writer then went on to say that today the question is frequently asked with irritating superciliousness, "What has the South done for music?"
The article ended with the following paragraph:
The music of the South has already impressed itself upon the nation. It is destined to take a greater hold as time goes on. Its weird beauty; quaint, pathetic and bizarre charm would seem to those who love it to justify the assertion of Edward Everett Hale that it is "the only American music."
The article between the opening and closing paragraphs contained a long argument to show what "the South" had done in the creation of music and how much it had done to inspire great composers. There was an indirect reference to the part played by the Negro, but the credit for what has been accomplished has given to "the South."
To this exposition of the subject we would have no objection except for the fact that those two words, "the South", are always used, especially by white Southerners, to mean the white South. In the same way, when, for example, a Mississippi statesman speaks about "the people of Mississippi" he does not mean all the people of Mississippi, he means the white people of Mississippi. We object to the exclusion of the Negro from "the South" for general purposes and his inclusion when the white South wishes to claim credit for or participate in something he has done.
Evidently the writer on the "News-Scimitar" felt that he was being a little too misleading when he spoke of the music of "the South", for that would indicate that it was music originated by the white people of the South; so he put in his passing reference to the Negro. He could have written a franker and better article however if instead of writing about the music of "the South" he had written about "Negro music". For as every one ought to know the white people of the South not only did not originate, but had no hand in originating "The music of the South" that has already impressed itself on the nation and the whole world; whose "weird beauty, quaint, pathetic and bizarre charm" justify the assertion that it is "the only American music."
The truth is: Southern white people not only had no hand in originating the music of "the South", they have not produced a single composer who could utilize the material which this music offers; in fact, they have no composer at all of any worth. Not in all of its history has the South produced a composer who could be placed in the same rank with the Negro composers, Cook, Burleigh, Johnson and Dett.
Mr. H. L. Mencken in his book, "Prejudices: Second Series," speaking of the complete absence of all cultural activity in the South, says:
"Nowhere in the North is there such complete sterility, so depressing a lack of all civilized gesture and aspiration. One would find it difficult to unearth a second-rate city between the Ohio and the Parame that isn't struggling to establish an orchestra, or setting up a little theatre, or going in for an art gallery, or making some other effort to get into touch with civilization. You will find no such impulse in the South. There are no committees down there eager subscriptions for orchestras; if a string quartet is ever heard there, the news has never come out; an opera troupe when it roves the land, is a nine-day's wonder. The little theatre movement has swept the whole country, enormously augmenting, the public interest in sound plays, going new dramatists their ciance, forcing retrospect upon the commercial theatre, every time the wave rolls high-but along the line of the Potomac it lifts upon a rock bound shore. There is no little theatre beyond. There is no gallery of picture. No artist ever gives exhibitions. No one ever talks of such things. No one seems to be interested in such things."
Mr Mencken also says, and truthfully, that the Negroes of the South are making faster progress culturally than the masses of the whites, that the only visible aesthetic activity in the South is wholly in their hands. He adds, "Even in politics, the Negro reveals a curious superiority. Despite the fact that the race question has been the main political concern of the Southern whites for two generations, to the practical exclusion of everything else, they have contributed nothing to its discussion that has impressed the rest of the world so deeply and so favorably as three or four books by Southern Negroes." The writer in the Memphis "News-Scimitar" referred twice to Coleridge-Taylor as one of the great musicians to make use of Southern themes for the composition of classical music; we wonder if he knows that Coleridge-Taylor was a Negro.
ARKANSAS STATE SUPREME COURT REVERSES
SENTENCES OF DEATH.
A decision of great interest to every person who has read of the Phillips County, Arkansas, riots of October, 1919, is the reversal on December 6 by the State Supreme Court of the sentences to death of Ed Ware, Will Wordflow, Albert Giles, Joe Fox, John Martin and Alf Banks, Jr. These are six of the twelve men who were sentenced to death for participation in the alleged "massacre plot" which was later shown to be an attempt on the part of colored share-croppers and trout farmers, to bring through the courts an end to the vicious golding of these farmers under the share-cropping system of the South. These cases were appealed to the State Supreme Court of Arkansas. On March 30 that court reversed the Phillips County Circuit Court on the ground that the lower court had rendered improperly the verdict, and remanded the cases for a new trial. At the same time it affirmed the verdict of death in the six remaining cases. Ed Ware and the other five men were then retried in the Phillips County Court and there they were reconvicted and resentenced to death. Attorneys for the men then reappealed the cases again to the Arkansas State Supreme Court.
While the cases were again being reviewed by the Supreme Court a most amazing step was taken by Charles H. Brough, Governor of Arkansas. Pressure was brought to hear on Governor Brough by the Helena Post of the American Legion, the Civian Club of Helena, the Lions Club of Helena, the Committee of Seven that originally investigated the alleged uprising, the Helena Rotary Club, the sheriff of Phillips County and the prosecuting attorney of that county not to grant executive clemency to any of the colored men in the event the Supreme Court of the State affirmed the verdict of the lower court. Governor Brough then took a step which apparently was a deliberate attempt to influence the decision of the court, when, on November 16 he issued a long statement to the press giving his reasons for believing that the colored men were guilty. The decision of the court was not rendered until December 6. The action of Governor Brough was so wholly improper that the Daily "Democrat," published in Little Rock, in its issue of November 17, protested against his action in an editorial headed, "Why Rush These Cases" in which it said:
the Arkansas Democrat must voice its wonder at the sudden clamor which has resulted in the somewhat premature announcement that a proclamation of execution is to be issued in the days
as the twelve degrees now under death compass for their part in
the Ehaine troubles . . . In the governor's office, or are the visiting delegations from Phillips County, in possession of advance information as to the disposition of these pending cases?"
"The Arkansas Democrat must regret that in the closing act of the tragedy of Ehaine, there should be allowed to come in further evidences of undue and unseemly haste."
"Let us not speed these cases unduly. There is no cause for haste. Let the courts function, and when they have completed their work, if there is to be no executive clemency, let the sentence fall."
If a Southern newspaper thus finds it necessary to take the governor to task, an idea can be gained as to the impropriety and injustice of his action.
In spite of these efforts, the State Supreme Court, reversed the verdict of the Phillips County Court, basing that reversal on the exclusion of Negroes from juries in the county, this being in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment and the Civil Rights Act of 1875. The cases are again remanded to the lower court for retrial.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has from the beginning fought these cases unrelentingly, and deserves great credit for the fact that up to this time it has saved the men from death although they were condemned to die more than a year ago. The victory of December 6 offers great hope for the eventual freeing of not only these twelve men but also of the sixty-seven others who are now serving prison terms in the state penitentiary of Arkansas.
IMMIGRATION BILL.
The policy of excluding immigrants from Europe who seek a haven in the United States, as expressed in the Johnson immigration bill which was passed in the House of Representatives by a vote of 293 to 41 on Monday, is not one to be commended. The bill prohibits virtually for one year all immigration into the United States. Yet, some corrective is desirable because of the manner in which "the open door" has been abused by large employers of labor who have sought to hold an advantage over labor by the maintenance of a considerable surplus of labor at all times. The stoppage of immigration with the outbreak of war in Europe in 1914 gave to labor for the first time an adequate weapon with which it could fight the steady inroads which employers had been making, and enabled labor for the first time to dictate to its employers the terms on which it would work.
Directly concerned in this question is the Negro. His emergence from relative unimportance as a factor in the industrial world came only since the war period. During that period he has steadily become an ever increasing element in the industrial situation in Northern centers, but that position was seriously threatened with the advent of thousands of immigrants from the war stricken countries of Europe. The Negro's services as a soldier and as a laborer aiding America while at war are, in true American fashion, being rapidly forgotten. It remains to be seen what effect the Johnson bill will have in the continuance of the Negro in Northern industries. In the vast majority of cases he has made good, but he has learned from bitter experience that making good does not always mean that he is given a chance. It usually takes other forces over which American color prejudice has no control to give the American Negro even a fighting chance for mere existence.
It is predicted that the Johnson bill will be defeated in the Senate and few persons seem to be able to forecast what President Wilson will do if the measure is ever sent to him for his signature. But whatever the eventual fate of this particular bill, it will be well for the Negro to watch closely this bill and all other legislation of similar nature.
DEADLIER THAN HOOKWORM
A decade or more ago the whole country was stirred up over the revelation that the greater part of the white population of the South was suffering from the rages of hookworm, or as the scientists phrased it unanimously. This deadly parasite was described as infecting the poor whites of that section and reducing them to an anemic condition both physically and morally. All the charges of laziness and ignorance brought against this class of humanity was laid to the hookworm and a medical campaign was started to dislodge this noxious pest from the human system. A Northern hilanthoist donated millions to further this campaign and considerable progress was reported.
At the present time a deadlier for than bookworm is sapping at the moral vitality of the white South. It is the lust for blood and the spirit of brutal savagery engendered by the continued countenance of lynching and mob violence by public and private opinion. This sentiment is not confined to adults, women as well as men, who is imparted to the children of both sexes, who are taught to look upon the brutal murder of a human being as either a subject for jest or approval and imitation. The truth of this was attested some months ago by the account in a Southern white newspaper of a casualty due to the too realistic game of lynching played by several white boys of tender age, in which one was killed. A Northern traveler told how he found the white children in a small town of the South suspending live frogs from twigs, that they might play as lynching, like their fathers and big brothers.
When it is remembered that nearly every lynching in the South is made a holiday occasion, this psychological result is not surprising. Men, women and children are conserved by special trains in many instances to the scene of the human sacrifice. They glout with gleef over the tortures by flame, or rope or bullet, as the case may be. The inevitable result is to implant and foster the spirit of cruelty and blood-thirstiness in the breasts of those who take part in these brutal orgies, as well as in their children, including those yet unborn.
For the sake of the white people of the South, lynching and mob violence should be suppressed. The lust for blood will not halt at the color of its victim, once armed it will kill and torture both black and white. If millions were given to estimate the horkworm, which kept its victims in a state of indolent inertia, how much more money and effort should be expended to eradicate the germ of blood lust which threatens to reduce the whites of the South to a savagery beyond the pale of civilization.
Lee Congress look at lynching as a disease that mercies the peac and prosperity of a whole section of the country.
The Richmond True Refrensor is jubilant over the revival of old fraternities of the order. The order of True Refrensor which was founded by the

The Odd Fellows Journal has been publishing for samples of the minutes of the proceedings of Hamilton Ledge, No 710, of New York, which date back to 1848. An interesting commentary on the growth of the metropolis since that time is the fact that the cemetery committee then recommended the purchase of two lots on 45th street, between Tench and Eleventh avenues, for the sum of $500. The lots were to be used as a cemetery for Odd Fellows and others. This must have been suburban territory at that time.
A remarkable story comes from Texas to the effect that a jury at Fort Worth rendered a verdict of acquittal in the case of Robert Lowe, a colored youth, charged with criminal assa it upon a young white girl. Both a white preacher, a white editor and a white prosecuting attorney testified against the youth. Twice a mob put a rope around his neck. White lawyers appointed by the court defended him, the boy being friendless and penniless. That an acquit was possible under such adverse conditions is regarded as something extraordinary and gives rise to the hope that a sense of Justice still exists in Texas.
A Texas mining prospector, who recently returned to this country after two years spent in the Belgian Congo, was reported as giving as one of his reasons for leaving that part of Africa, his inability to stand by and witness the atrocities still perpetrated upon the natives. It was still the custom of the Belgian officers, he declared, to capture and hold chiefs of the Negro tribes and force them to bring in natives to keep up the supply of laborers. There was no ill treatment of laborers on the coast, but he had seen natives fedged severely, some receiving 120 lashes and he knew of some natives dying from the punishment. And yet it was Belgian that complained so bitterly of the cruelties practiced during the German occupation. Evidently, the Golden Rule is not practiced by the Belgians in the Congo.
A unique feature of the Portland, Oregon Admiral is Joan D'Anois Corner, "the Love Expert." Here advice is given as to the propriety of calling upon a married lady friend, giving hone or sweaters to a single lady friends as Christmas gifts, and how to capture the fancy of the "haughty sort of a creature flirting here and there." The hire-expert" hands most of these and other experimental problems with a moderate of discretion and common sense, which may tend to avert serious results although it may mean long for the admirer.

1930 NEW YORK AGE, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18.
Two notable recitals have been given recently in London by Roland W. Hayes, the American senior. Both were at Wigmore Hall, Wigmore Street, W. and according to the London critics, in both concerts Mr. Hayes achieved notable triumphs. This was especially true of the last one on November 20, the first recital occurring on October 28. As usual, Mr. Hayes' programs were made up of art songs by Negro composers, Italian and French Songs, English songs and Negro Spirituals.
In addition to songs by Burleigh, Dett and Coleridge-Taylor, Mr. Hayes featured songs by Nora Douglas Holt ("My love is like a cry in the night") and Gerald Tyler ("Ships that pass in the night").
A feature incorporated in these programs deserving of the strongest commendation was the following note of explanation which preceded the group of Negro Spirituals—"NEGRO SPIRITUALS: The origin is unique. They are never composed after the manner of ordinary music, but spring into life sandy-made from the white-heat of religious terror during some protracted meeting in church or camp. They were never associated with comic or minstrel entertainments, and those who insist on characterizing them as such, or use them in such connection, are in error, and certainly commit an act of irresponsibility."
Some of the colored vaudevillians, both in America and Europe, should have these sentences borne into their consciousness.
An interesting feature of the October twenty-eighth recital was the recognition shown Mr. Hayes at the conclusion of his program by a number of distinguished Europeans and Africans, Casey Hayford, M. B. E., introduced Councillor J. R. Archer, formerly mayor of the city of Battersea, who read, and then presented to Mr. Hayes, an illuminated address on vellum. During the concert a laurel wreath had been presented Mr. Hayes and a bouquet of white chrysanthemums to Lawrence B. Brown, his capable young accompanist. Mr. Archer, in his address, declared that Mr. Hayes, by his beautiful music, had shown that the black man, given the same opportunity as the white man, would rise to equal height. The young American singer was strongly affected by the tribute and declared that his art would always be at the service, not only of the African races, but of all peoples.
The illuminated address here, among other signatures, that of Prince Massaquoi of Liberia and Chief Olhuwa of Lagos.
The recital on November 30th was largely attended, the audience being made up of musicians and music lovers, including many of the mobility of England. London critics writing for the Musical News, the Morning Post and the Daily Telegraph, pay high tribute to the work done by Mr. Hayes, and it is clearly evident that the young colored American singer has definitely established his work in London music circles. Naturally they pay more attention to his singing of purely racial songs, because as one writer put it, he "helped his hearers to realize the true import of the Negro Spirituals, which are serious songs, and in no way related to 'taz' compositions."
But the same writer declared that "this pure voice and excellent methods were also displayed in some operatic excerpts, in which he further substantiated his just claim to be regarded as a cultivated and intelligent singer."
The same mail which brought me the London papers with their comments on Mr Hayes' recitals, also brought me a clipping from Musical America, (the clipping being sent anonymously from Boston), in which Martens, the foreign editor, claimed that Hayes' singing of "white" numbers had been criticized by the English as having an element of artificiality and strain. Of the half-door papers on my desk, representing the leading daily and music journals of the English metropolis, not one of them makes such a criticism.
"The emphasis which is laid on his singing of the Spirituals is, as the writer on the Daily Telegraph has it, that there are "very, very few who can sing the Spirituals as we recall them in the days of the Jubilee Singers fifty years ago. There is a grave risk of these beautiful songs deteriorating into the conventional through the machinations of the contemporary sophisticated concert-room artist, for many of them are becoming popular in the wrong sense. It is, then, to Mr. Hayes and to those who have the true secret to see that the Spirituals are preserved in their right atmosphere, and no one in recent years has deserved better of us who are interested in the beautiful things than Mr. Hayes."
His Master's Voice Photograph Co. of London lt the English branch of the Virtet Talking Machine Co. of America has engaged Roland W. Hayes, the young American Negro tenor now in London, in make twelve records of American Negro Spirituals, the contract being on a royalty basis.

DEAN KELLY MILLER
PREACHES A SERMON
"The constitution of the Kingdom of Heaven is the Sermon on the Mount" and Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University to a large gathering of men at the YMCA at a meeting Sunday afternoon, December 12th. "The fundamental principles upon which all Christian doctrine are based are found in this sermon. It is as necessary to obey and support this constitution" Dean Miller continued in part, "it is to obey and support the Constitution of the United States." Contrary to the announcements which had been made during the week that the speaker would give his impressions of the "New Negro in the New Day" Dean Miller took as the subject of his lecture "The Kingdom of Heaven: Developing descriptions by explanation, describing definitions and definitions" Dean Miller expressed the opinion that the oft-quoted passage, "This Kingdom Come" should not be glibly retitled "We are obligated," he said, "to cooperate with God in bringing about this Kingdom."
"The white man built Harlem." Dean Miller continued, "but the Narranes have inherited it." He pointed out that this world, requires workers, untrusting, serious and sincere. "With an appeal to the large gathering of men to enroll so citizens in the Kingdom of Heaven, Dean Miller, completed his lecture."

NEGRO BANKS AND FEDERAL
RESERVE
To the Editor of Tuz Acz:
Recently, large number of Negro banks carried a army about the proposed organization of a national Negro banking institution, a unit of bank bank to be capitalised at a million dollars. This bank is to be organized after the plan of the Federal Reserve Banks throughout the country. This is in many respects a capital idea, and will no doubt serve to supply a more elastic credit system to the Negro banks of the country. Yet it seems to me that the greatest good such a bank can do for the race is to qualify as a member of the Federal Reserve System, and induce other Negro banks to do so.
The Federal Reserve Banks of the country are enabling us to pass through a period of depressions without the many failures of past years and without panic. Preyous to the assuring of the Federal Reserve Act, most banks had to depend upon their own resources, and did not receive the cooperation of other banks in times of crisis. The result of this policy was that a large number of banks were unable to meet the demands of the heavy demands upon their resources an d the panic which followed when the depositors noticed any delay in payments of these demands.
However, since the passing of this act, the member banks pool their resources and deposit them in the Federal Reserve Bank of their district. This has caused the legal amount of reserve of each bank to be lowered. It has also assured each member bank of the cooperation of the other banks in times of crisis. And more than this a Federal Reserve bank of a certain district can call upon the other Federal Reserve banks for assistance. A good illustration of the工作的 of this system may be had at the present time, for the Federal Reserve banks of Dallas and Richmond are now receiving aid from the banks of Philadelphia, Boston and New York, because of the heavy demands now being made on these Southern banks by the cotton growers.
The Negro banks of the country have just passed through a period of unrest. The bank has a number of these banks have more than doubled during the past five years. We

JOHN C. DANCY
The passing of the late John C. Dunn, former recorder of deeds, in the wake of about the last link in the chain of men from North Carolina of a school who were close friends and coworkers, namely—the Rev. Joseph H. Price, the silver tongued orator of the South; ex-Congressman George H. White, the Rev. R. W. Morris, representative in the Legislature, whose daughter, Mrs. Charles Reguial, Christian, resided in Brooklyn, and Israel H. Abbott, ex-Representative from North Carolina, whose grand daughter, Mrs. Arthur Boyer, also resides in Brooklyn, N. Y.
Those prominent men have played their parts in the great drama of life and have gone from labor to reward. The Rev. William H. Goler, president emeritus of Livingstone College, Sullibury, N. C., is the only man of this purported set of men now living.
These lines are familiar to all who knew the late John C. Daney.
"You may talk about the Negro, you may say there's nothing in him. But you cannot turn a wheel that the Negro isn't in it.
You may back his silver rights, you may say you are against it. However, you will find some few Negroes will be in it.
You may trace him where you will, from the cook pot to the Senate. And when you get there you will find that a Negro will be in it."
Temporary Postoffice-A
Postmaster Thomas G. Patten announces that a temporary postmaster will be opened for the Christmas holidays at Public School, No. 5, 160th street and Edgecomb avenue. The annex will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on December 20 to 24, inclusive for the sale of stamens and the mailing of Christmas parcels.
1. The registry or money order business
are now in the midst of a period of decrepitation. The slogan everywhere is "back to normal", and this is resulting in very conservative buying, unemployment, and later price slashing. The banks of the country are having a hard time supplying the credit demanded, and especially are the smaller Negro banks finding it, increasingly hard to supply the heavy demands made upon them. It is, therefore, very important that some organization be formed among the Negro bankers that will assume a closer cooperation, and the organizers of the Allied Bankers and Industrial Corporation are to be congratulated upon their splendid move in the right direction. The bankers should go further and should meet the requirements for membership to the Federal Reserve system of this country. As members of this System they could have the cooperation of the great national banks of the country in manufacturing the unlimited amount of credit that expanding Negro business will require in the years that are before us. WM. E. CLARK. New York City.
INSPIRATION TO READERS:
To the Editor of The Age:
I want to compliment you on the newspaper that you publish. It makes a fellow feel better after reading your essay. I believe in giving credit where it is due. You do not ask for our race only what is fair and right. If we demand respect we will be respected. The trouble is race jealousy. It seems that some of our race do not like to see each other prosper. Your editors are an inspiration to your readers. You tell us what we are doing and that there is how for us. Life without hope is a failure. Give us the sunny side of life. we know of the dark side. You are doing more for humanity than all the knackers. "Every knock is a boost" if we can get our people to realize that by helping each other we are helping ourselves. We cannot all agree on some things but we can be generous toward each other. You are doing a wonderful work. May you not be discouraged. Wishing you all success and good luck. SAMUEL N. JOHNSON 1450 Division str., San Francisco.

"The American Race Problem: A Challenge to the Churches"
Address to the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America by George E. Haynes, Director, Negro Economics
(Special to The New York Acu)
Boston, Mass.—One of the principal speakers at the Federal Council of Church of Christ in America, held here on December 6, was George E. Haynes, director of Negro Economics, Department of Labor, Washington, D.C. Mr. Haynes had as his subject, "The American Race Problem—A Challenge to the Church." He declared that the challenge to the churches in the relations of Negro and white people is threshold, racial, national and international.
Negroes have a growing race consciousness of their own worth and of a racial solidarity among themselves. Saying that discrimination and oppressions are intensified race consciousness and that most violence, court injustice, industrial exploitation, lack of educational facilities and other things are serving to bad the race in racial brotherhood, Dr. Haynes continued:
"Of these conditions, Negroes have hard developed the states of used land, which are very poor. They cannot employ cwfw ycmfvtype words of the house, however, demand that college and university education be
In the next place, they are seriously questioning the utility of the doctrine of justice and mercy of what they can do the white man, religion to darter and more. Nexes point to the things they have suffered and are undergoing now in America. They also call attention to the exploitation of the native evidence of the way in which the Indian nations treat unchained nations of an alien race.
Power for Organization.
The growing intelligence and increasing power of Negroes is giving them a power for organization and action for their own development. Instead of stifling them from 90 per cent in 1805 to less than 10 per cent in 1920, they have increased their business enterprises by more than 45,000 and then and adding in the South faster and more frequent increases in the rate of progress is more for the convenience shows. They indicate the growing intelligence and consciousness of Negroes. They represent men of power. The power in the Negro is in the War, America allows Negroes the opportunity to develop their naturally powerful intelligence and wealth to develop the opportunity to that is a question which the Christian churches of
An International Problem

passes whatever happens in America will affect the action of the foreign world. World War the question is assumed in larger aspects. The problem of the future is the problem of the future. Stoddard's recent book, The Being Tide of Color, discusses the intense and political politics of America for racial equality in the United Nation, and India asks for greater independence for Indian populations. Nations are expecting so far that the world peoples and all these peoples will form their opinion and toward the American politics largely from America's policy and with darker peoples. The international with a promo- mission has studied the Negro people, he stated that the American people she has to under- stand with America, whom she

Points of a Practical Program.
In some cases briefly, points on a program of advancement for a new position as a step toward a new position may be set out there in six phases of a program where a practical program is developed out through the well-developed community of our common life. The programs must have occupational training and community they are involved in and access to the resources for a wholesome standard. The churches then must be involved in relation to the Negro business in industry and commerce. The schools in northern centers must be involved in touch the employ-ment institute the training faculties in the conditions of the work- Negro workers have the work and to hold the position their work on their workers.

Civic and Political Rights.
"Fifth, there should be a, free participation in the common civic and political activities of the community, not only for the sake of the humble Negro, but for the sake of the democracy upon which the liberty of all depends. This democracy, America is at stake in nine relations. "In most parts of our country today, the Negro is what one writer has called "half a man". There can be no democracy, half serf and half free. Qualifications for the franchise should be enforced and administered to all alike. Furthermore, the protection of life and property of every American citizen, even the poor, must be maintained. Every man, black and white alike, must be considered innocent of any crime until proven guilty by due process of law.
Every citizen in every district of our land should feel free from molestation in the sanctity of his home and feel certain that he will not be lynched or mobbed on more suspicion or accusation or deprived of his liberty or his life without due process of justice and national governments must be used to give justice to Negro Americans if race relations are not ungracefully settled in America.
Moral and Religious Life.
Sixth, there should be a development of moral and religious life which shall pour through all the other relations the refining leaven of life and hope and the restoring of life and hope and best internal of Negro life as well as the development of inter-racial connexity most come largely through the influence of church life.
The Negro church that has a social program is more of an exception than the Negro churches of today are without ministers who live in the community. These churches usually average one service per month.
No greater help could be performed by large denominations today than by the support of mission workers in about 800 rural counties of the South.
"This, then, Christian friends, is what seems to me such a challenge to the churches that it involves their work in the service of America have justified done to Negroes at home before they can consistently carry the gospel abroad.

don Johnson, but with the Johnson boom is being considered the probable influence of the National City Bank of New York, which never have everything they need. The Ralph Reppin Marine—mailed down and ready for delivery, and Scott, you know, has dedicated his life to educational work. No one wants to go to Liberia but Vernon, and he is on his way as a Bishop of the great Loyola University. Hawkins will probably place the place over and return on the next boat unless he catches the African fever, or unless John R. Hawkins forgets to send him a draft. There are those who think that Fred Moore or of the great Loyola University should be sent, but this is doubtful because Moore is a very busy man just now trying to keep Marcas Garvey and George Harris from lassoing all of the denizens of San-Juan Hill, and in regard to Dr. Lyons the late George Garvey, this is usual. Charlie Anderson will look after Gilchrist Stewart.
Haynes Asks for Places.
There are rumors of candidacies for other responsible positions, including the booms for Robert Church, R. L. Vann, William H. Lewis, Armand Scott, Sumner Furnis, and Roscoe Bruce, but the only person with a constructive proposition is George E. Haynes, of the Bureau of Negro Economics, Department of Labor. Haynes, according to the appropriation Bill already submitted to Congress, has asked for a Director of Negro Economics at $4,500, sixteen assistant officers at $2,000 each, eight officers at $2,000 each, eight officers at $1,800 each, seven Assistant Supervisors at $1,500 each, sixteen stenographers at $1,200 each, two at $1,000 one file clerk at $1,080. Other one file clerk at $1,080. Other expenses asked for bring the total expenses asked for to $110,000. This hurried did splendid work during the war, and a bulletin showing the character of work done will soon be ready for distribution.
There are rumors, yet concerning the candidacy of Col. Roscoe Simons, but it is thought that Editor Albery or Phil Brown will soon place Roscoe in the running.

Mrs. Bethune's Statement
The following statement, signed by Mrs. Mary McKee Bedhame, was presented to the members of the National Board on behalf of the women invited to attend the conference:
"I consider the calling of this conference to be the Board long step in the right direction. We interns demand mutual understanding. To do team work, we must better understand each other. A new day has come to the Negro women and we are asking the opportunity to rightly represent them. As a factor and a force for the spirit of the womanhood of the world, we desire to bear our part of the responsibility in the furtherance of the work of the Young Women's Christian Association, this event we are for representation of the National Board and Field Committee in order to develop initiative and leadership for our group. Further, for a stronger sympathetic cooperation on the part of Negro women and white women even more, we must be harmoniously and satisfactorily worked out and that peace and justice, and love may reign."

Senator France's Speech
The speaker of the evening was United States Senator Joseph L. France of Maryland, who made an extended address marked by great sympathy and appreciation of the cause of the face. Among other things he said:
"Impersonalism and the old order is dying. Americanism and a new life is opening before the world. Prepured and malignant statement strive to postpone God's Day, which is new, arentheless, marching on; that day when every race and nation and every individual is a larger place in the sun of opportunity.
"The race problem will never be solved by consistent and concerted efforts to keep the colored races in ignorance and degradation, by depriving them of schools and sanitary surroundings, or by discrimination.

I must confess that I today feel guilty of having allowed such a serious mistake to go by with out attempting to arrest it. I am quite sure that there clergymen who were with me on the platform must feel equally guilty.

Mr. MacStrawley, advance agent for the Christians delegation, arrived in Paris six weeks previous to the arrival of the delegates, making reservations in the American Women's Club for thirty-eight people. On Saturday, before the arrival of the guests or the Mrs. Phillipine of St Lukes, the insolvent of the American delegation, had arrived in Paris a week previous to this.
Colored Women Sent to Hotele
Miss Dunn noticed at this time that three of the delegates were colored women. She called Mrs. Moore on the telephone and asked if the colored women were included in the three-wight club. She said they were not. Mrs. Club, Mrs. Moore explained that the other members of the party, including herself, vicepresident, colored delegate, and men would stop at other hotels. From this conversation Miss Dunn understood that the colored delegates would not attend the party. Mrs. Club. On Monday morning when the delegates arrived, the same party was brought to the American Women's Club, Mr. Mac Sergeian, the agent for the party that it he boarded the train at Fontambreau he could must all hotel assignments on the train party recounted. The train did not arrive at Fontambreau this was not possible, and Mr. Caldwell of the French-Belgique, Tours, who was at the train with his machine to meet the party, not knowing of the arrangements, brought the whole party to the American women's Club. Upon arrival the women of the club were upon breakfast, colored delegates and all.
When the colored delegates were told that reservations' had been made for them at other hotels two of the party accepted this invitation. One of the delegates and asked Miss Dunn why she did not leave her race prejudice in the United States. Miss Dunn replied that she had no race prejudice. The delegate did not accept the explanation, insisting that the privilege of stopping in the American Women's Club.
Did Not Attend Tea at Club.
The Club gave a tea that same afternoon for the delegates. No special invitations were issued and when Mrs. Moore came, two hours previous to the delegates, she told Miss Dunn that she did not think the colored women would come to the tea. A member of the delegates, including the colored women, of were not present of this tea. Miss Dunn thinks however, that the colored women hold into their unhappiness. I hope this explanation will help you in answering the statement.
Professional Action to Mob Murder
justice are everywhere and at all times applicable, with an acknowledgement of the fact, surrounded by all great anthropologists, that the colored race has great offspring and moral capacity, and that it has created to fulfill a great destiny.
Time Now for Actual :
"I believe the time is at hand when the party of Abraham Lincoln will deal with this problem in his spirit. We must first insist upon a fair, equal and universal enforcement of the laws of our land, north south east and west. I believe we are urged, and the Constitution, the framework of our government, may be altered and amended, but it is intolerable that the laws should with immunity be obeyed, or that constitutional provisions should be disregarded."
While the Brooklyn branch of the organization numbers at present less than one hundred members, in work promoting this meeting gave evidence of intelligent and well directed energy. The women members of he branch seemed especially active in carrying out the details of the arrangements, in which their work was supplemented by a committee of officers acted as ushers, distributors of literature and securers of pledges and contributions.

Christ, during His life on earth, was confronted with many crisis; in every case he prayed before attempting to comeback them. Are we greater than God? Are we greater than Jesus? Garron, Beberer, or any of the apostles of the abolitionist spirit would have, as leaders, stood before a name of people such as the audience at the Academy last Thursday evening and championed such a worthy cause without consulting God. Let us take heed.
One of my messages present and to me that he took the police that God's name was not mentioned save twice. Tallerton, Tallerton, Tallerton, jointly called His wife two days before her address. The face all over the country should get together and hold mass-meetings as a protest against lynching and unjust discrimination; but don't hold them without asking God to be your guide.
CREME COURT
Elaine Verdicts
Negroes be on the trial justice. A decision to this effect was handed down by the Supreme Court in Florida in March, 1913. This decision held that it was the duty of county attorney and court commissioner to place the names of Negroes in jury boxes for jury duty, otherwise when Negroes are tried or are guilty to raise and those suits are doubled directly to them, they have the right to appeal on the ground of wrongdoing.
The January 19, 1908, one of the lawyers now to the defense in the Elaine Cause, Seligio A. James, a Negro
history of Little Nuth in the case of W. H. White, a Negro charged with forging divers degrees, made a motion that the indictment be quashed on the ground that an Negro had been included in the misappropriation of information from a Negro board of poll jurors. It was brought out that in the selection of jurors, the question of placing Negroes on the panel had never been discussed, although it was admitted that there were Negroes on the panel. The motion for quashing the indictment was everywhere. An appeal of the case was made. In 1900, Jones raised the same objection when he was defending a Negro charged with grand theft of 699 white and 125 Negro qualified electors in the county and that for 18 years no Negro had been selected to serve on a jury. The Judge overruled the motion and the case was carried to the State on the ground that it was an error to overrule the motion without having evidence as to the facts alleged.

The new Constitution office will be held on Sunday, December 17. Dr. Benjamin will speak at the public meeting at the city library on this evening. He will be joined by Cole, William Pier and Andrew Regan. Many parents were out for the Get-Together, December 10. We were the grown-ups to know what the Get-Together Association are trying to do and with the young people, by taking twelve parents, six leaders, and the young men crowded the gym the day of the Get-Together. They meet with each other in preconceived notions and shimpy yells to cheer an active audience.
