SILVER SHOWER FOR TWO NEGRO VETERANS LEADER D.B.COSTUMA FROM U. S. IN TURKEY
Two of the personal staff of Kemal Pasha, leader of the Turkish Nationalists in their fight against the dictatorship, American Negroes who saw service in France during the World War, according to information brought to America by Capt. C. B. Rogers, representative of the Reynolds Tobacco Company in Asia Minor.
It was a surprise to members of the Central Republican Club when they received in announcement of the marriage of David B. Costuma, Republican leader of the 19th Assembly District, and they turned the joke on Mr. Costuma by handing him a surprise on the evening of January 2nd.
A large number of the club members assembled at the club house, 23 West 12th street, on New Year Monday evening. Leader Costuma was called for and ushered into the assembly room to the sound of many New Year greetings. Then after a short felicitous speech of presentation by Mr. Kurts, Mr. Costuma was taken utterly by surprise when he was made the recipient of a silver shower. Many handsome and admirable pieces were included in the collection.
The two colored men hold rank as captains, and they are from Nashville, Tenn., respectively. Ky., respectively. Captain Rogers declared that the Turkish leader had German, French and Italianians also on his staff and that the Turks would win and eventually make their own peace.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—"It is a fine thing for people to get together and to live harmoniously," declared Dr. Ie R. Moton, principal of the Tuskegee Institute, on Christmas morning in addressing a large number of Negro Masons of Tuskegee Institute and of the Town of Tuskegee, who had assembled to help make a large number of the less fortunate members of the race in Macon county happy. Dr Moton emphasized that it was the real Tuskegee Spirit to help humanity and singled out the fact that he was glad to note the spirit in such a substantial manner which revealed that the occasion was helping to cement good fellowship among all classes of people.
Mr. Costuma gave brief expression to his pleasure, surprise and appreciation.
Chicago Lawyer Dead
(Spring to the New York Age)
Chicago Ill.-S. Lang Williams, former assistant United States district attorney here under the Roosevelt and Taft administrations, and one of the best known Negro lawyers in the United States, died December 21, in his home, 4203 St. Lawrence avenue. Attorney Williams, who was 63 years old, had been seriously ill for two weeks. He had never recovered from the effects of injuries he suffered in an automobile accident about a year ago. It was at that time that he retired from active practice as a lawyer.
The Negro Masonic lodge of Tuskegee Institute and of the town of Tuskegee have Arthur P. Mack and J. L. Anderson, respectively, as their worshipful masters; both are instructors at Tuskegee Institute. W. P. Woods, the grand master, is also a resident of Tuskegee Institute. By these two lodges cooperating and with the help of the grand master, hundreds of poor people in Macon county were made happy.
He was graduated from the University of Michigan and the Columbia Law college at Washington. D.C., and was regarded by members of his race as one of its most brilliant orators.

New Orleans, La—The funeral services of the late Rev. Pierre Landry, held on Saturday afternoon in Progressive Baptist Church of which the Rev. J. C. Butrell is pastor, were the most beautiful and impassioned as well as historical ever held over the remains of a member of our trace in this city.
An appeal for funds was made by Rev. Robert W Bagnall, director of branches, and William Pickens, field secretary, and the proph responded with several hundred dollars in cash and subscriptions.
It was not in the great crowds that turned out; it was not in the point of the ceremonies or in the elaborate expenditure of money in preparing for the funeral; it was rather in the program at the church where true mourners had gathered to pay respect to the dead and to honor the memory of one well deserving of
Music for the evening was furnished by Mr. Olivet Baptis, Church churor, Lorento E. Dyer, director-organist, with Miss Olive Hopkins as soloist, and the 15th regimental band under direction of Lieut. Will H. Vodder. The invocation was by the Rev. A. C. Garner. A feature of the program was singing of the Negro national anthem, words by James Welborn Johnson, music by J. Rosamond Johnson.

It was in the simple but forceful tactics held by disinterested and distinguished men of both races who know the dead in life, long and many years intimately, and who held as a citizen, as a churchman, as a statesman and as a man of family. It was in the testimony of the faith and the hope the deceased gage in the hymns he had requested to be sung at his funeral and the message these hymns conveyed to his mourners as to the harmonies of tradition for those who believed in the Word of Life and trusted faithfully in the promise of the Son of God to reward with eternal happiness those who love, serve God and man as their first duty.

Tuskegee Institute, Ma.—One of the most interesting events during the Christmas season at the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute was the unveiling of the portraits of Mr. and Mr. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago at the Children's House Training School. Through his yearly gifts and his interest in the pupils of the Children's House, Mr. Rosenwald, who is a trustee of the institute, has gained a warm place in the hearts of these three hundred children. Upon their request he sent the portraits to Mrs. R. R. Moton, who formally presented them to Mrs. I. T. Jones, the principal of the Training School, and the pupils in connection with the Christmas tree activities.

Colored Deputy of France Warns of Colonial Dangers
Tells French Chamber of Deputies That Colonial Empire, 22 Times Greater in Area Than France, is Suffering
Best Speech in 3 Years
American Correspondent Writes That Rene Boisneuf, Black Deputy From Guadeloupe, Voices Protest in Closely Reasoned, Carefully Documented Speech
(The following article was published in the Brooklyn, New York Daily "Eagle" on Sunday, January 1st, and it was written by that paper's Paris correspondent, Guy Hickok, who is in charge of the "Eagle" bureau at 53 Rue Cambon, Paris, France. Mr. Hickok writes from first hand knowledge and his account of the speech by Rene Boisneuf, deputy from Guadeloupe, one of the three black members of the Chamber of Deputies, will be a special interest to readers of THE NEW YORK AGE.)
Paris, December 21.—A black member of the Chanties, Rene Boisneuf, voiced the protest of "the white man, the den" in one of the most closely reasoned and earnest speeches made in the French Parliament in the last three years.
Boisneuf's was a galling criticism of the administration of France's great colonial empire, more than 22 times the area of France itself. It was also more than that. It was one more expression of the growing belief among black populations that they have a future other than that as shewers of wood and drawers of water for another race.
It went far to explode the prevalent idea that French colonial government begins by making the colony an integral part of France and giving it representation in the French government. True, there are three black deputies there, and government together are represented. But they are among the smallest, such as Martinique, Reunion, French Guiana and Guadeloupe.
Vast. Populations Unrepresented.
Senegal, with a black population of 12,000,000, more than the black population of America, has one deputy. But the great colonies of Morocco, Tunis, Madagascar, French Siam, French Equatorial Africa and French Indo-China have none. Nevertheless there is in nearly all parts of the world populated by colored races a warm feeling for France because of France's recognition, in principle at least, of racial equality. Nothing shows the freedom from color prejudice better than the following colloquy when Boisneuf, coal black, began to speak:
Rene Boisneuf (colored)—I tell you that things are going back in the colonies.
Reporter of the Budget (white)—Oh, everything looks black to you.
Boisneuf—No, I am not looking at myself. But I am looking at you, and that makes me see the whole situation as very pale and sad. I tell you that our colonies are suffering. But it is not sufficient merely to realize that fact. You must make it your business to find a remedy.
Not a trace of ill-feeling marked the easy word plays a color. There was probably less embarrassment than if one American Congressman had joked a fellow member about his role.
Laws of Empire Still Enforced
But, though the personal part of the debate was good-natured in the extreme, the meat of the black deputy speech was serious. He began by saying that the French colonies are still ruled under laws and decrees laid down during the empire and that they have never benefited by the change of the mother country to a republican form of government.
"It is sad to state," he said, "that all the general laws regarding the colonies were made by the former monarchist regimes.
"The colonies, other than Martinique, Guadeloupe and Réunion, are still ruled by decrees of the Emperor according to law, and to the colonies today the Emperor is the Minister of Colonies;
"Never has personal government been more absolute. Apart from the colonies mentioned the whole French colonial empire is governed by simple decrees, or, in other words, by the good pleasure of the government."
Boisnent declared that he realized that many of the colonies were still unready for autonomy, and that on his opinion there was only one alternative to the present system under which the Minister of Colonies is practically an Emperor.
"We can retain the present scheme of autocracy, and arbitrary absolutism or we can accept loyalty and frankly the only policy which seems to me to be legal, which is the exercise by the French Parliament itself, the only legal representative of the French nation, of those duties of sovereignty which it has no right to delegate to any one."
Case of Occidental Africa.
The deputy objected sharply to the present regime, in detail, saying:
"The governing council of Occidental Africa for example consists of the governor general as pro-ident, the governor general's secretary, all of the lieutenant governor, the chief of services, the general commanding the troops and the naval commanding the naval forces; then of two or three notables named by the governor general, a priy council named by the governor general, etc., etc.
"It is no exaggeration that it is the governor general himself who makes up the budget. Only the monarchs or older times, under the monarchy of divine right, interrogated to themselves the right to levy so upon the goods of their subjects."
After a lengthy criticism of what he called a caricature of popular government in some of the colonies Bosnacf added:
"Everywhere arbitrary force, everywhere injustice, every blundering, everywhere ruin or the peril of ruin, budgets being under the cost of government-personnel, and budgets done to further social or economic progress of the country."
He sound from generalizations to the exaggerated
the colonies, including to identify the predecessor that the incorporation of non殖民ized countries is for the benefit of the colonies.
.
The black currency revealed that in the great colony of India, the colonial administration had issued the sale of opium in districts which had between been free from the drugs. When this statement was denied he read both colonies and letters from the governor general directing that steps be taken to increase opium sales, and showed that opium paid 40 per cent of the colonial budget.
He emphasized the inconsistency of rigorally prohibiting the sale of opium in France while forcing it in one of the colonies whose inhabitants are, according to the French political theory, equal to white Frenchmen.
"You do not admit that the life of an Annamite or a Cambodian is worth less than that of a Parisian; that the life of a colonial in worth less than that of a native Frenchman. Therefore I cannot see how you reconcile the consumption of opium in Indo-China, even for budgetary reasons, when it is rigidly prohibited in France. What a comedy! What hypocrisy!"
He charged that in Tongoland, the former German colony in Africa, German properties had been disposed of illegally by the sequestration officer for a ridiculously small sum. The day after his speech it was announced that the sequestration officer, whose name he had revealed, had committed suicide.
Charges Election Frauds.
Boisneuf charged that in white governors maintained a for the purpose of defrauding the military boistering up life. Still more serious he charged Equatorial Africa had been "did began there; that epidemics had exploitation by French concessions had intensified the mortality rate part of the native population to escape the forced labor regime. Here again the black deputy strengthen his statements, attack the effect of each control directly into his hands, possible counter attack and had. After making it plain that if attacking merely individuals colonies over to the mercies of keeping them under the supreme deputy proposed a remedy. He scouted the idea of colonies, saying that they were unimportant make a caricature of equally harmful the present system to a governor whose power was.
Offers a
The quickest and easiest he said, was a financial law in the colonies in the regular French regularly under the attention of "Of the phrase, 'There is no reality,' he said.
"If the present system persists year you will not be able to say for on the contrary, agitation in "Bitterness, rancor and accrimination to lose faith in France, cause France represents and m justice, liberty and fraternity."
America Should Part In Africa
M. E. Church Missionary Needs, and Why—Skill Idle Money for Indu
Boisneuf charged that in his own colony, Guadalupe, the white governors maintained a native military force used expressly for the purpose of defrauding the elections, and read several orders to the military boistering up his statement.
Still more serious he charged that the population of French Equatorial Africa had been "decimated" since the French regime began there; that epidemics had carried off many; that intensive exploitation by French concession companies of the native labor had intensified the mortality rate; that in French Congo a great part of the native population had fled to neighboring colonies to escape the forced labor regime of concession companies.
Here again the black deputy adduced indisputable evidence to strengthen his statements. In fact, all the way through his attack the effect of each contradiction of his statements was to play directly into his hands. It was as if he had forseen every possible counter attack and had come prepared to squelch it.
After making it plain that in his exposures he had no intention of attacking merely individuals, but the system which turned the colonies over to the mercies of their governors general, instead of keeping them under the supervision of the Chamber, the black deputy proposed a remedy.
He scouted the idea of more self-government for the colonies, saying that they were unprepared for it; and that they would only make a caricature of democratic government. He found equally harmful the present system of delivering each colony over to a governor whose power was as absolute as that of an emperor.
The quickest and easiest and best solution of the difficulty, he said, was a financial law incorporating the several budgets of the colonies in the regular French budget where they would come regularly under the attention of the Chamber of Deputies.
"Of the phrase, 'There is only one France,' we must make a reality," he said.
"If the present system persists you can be convinced that next year you will not be able to say, 'All is tranquil in the colonies,' for on the contrary, agitation in the colonies is universal.
"Bitterness, rancor and acrimony are rampant. We are beginning to lose faith in France. But we must not lose faith, because France represents and must continue to represent for all justice, liberty and fraternity."
America Should Have Vital Part In Africa's Development
M. E. Church Missionary Tells of the Help Liberia Needs, and Why—Skilled Negro Workers and Idle Money for Industrial Development
By REV. J. F. COLEMAN.
Missionary to Africa, M. E. Church—Cox Memorial Institute, Monrovia.
Liberia, while not directly engaged in the World War, has suffered economically even more than the nation, directly concernen't because as a government she had all her eggs in one basket, and when the mistrusts of war had despoiled these she had nothing to choose which to depend. The outcome has meant complete reorganization of her financial system. The issues of the war so complicated the international recovery that its liquidation became a necessity. The American government referred to this as a war measure, the war she has been importted to grant a loan of Five Million Dollars to pay off all previous loans and give the country a working balance for internal improvement. There is every reason why this loan should be granted, as there are other reasons to believe that it will be.
In the first place the international receivership was a too expensive method of financial control for the amount of money involved. Its supervision was of a nature altogether too complex to promote internal development, which should be of first consideration in any plan to help the country financially. Instead it left room for the play of every cross-current imipial to the larger growth of the nation.
It is also a prophetic and timely thing that Liberia should come out of these managements facing towards America. She has flirted with European nations long enough to find out that it is impossible to work out her appointed desig to the best advantage under their nation. These nations have already spread their systems of colonial governments over all Africa besides, with the possible exception of Abyssinia. Their primary object in Africa is for commercial advantages. They seek the material wealth to be found in great abundance in er streams and forrests and mines. It seems that every interest of the native man is subordinated to this supreme object. Their present and past methods of dealing with him have got much to be desired, not only in the justice and fair play, but in a chance eto make a living; and that in his own native land.
No Racial Change Likely.

When we read both codons and letters from that steps be taken to increase opium paid 40 per cent of the colonies' consistency of rigidity prohibiting the forcing it in one of the colonies' leading to the French political theory. the life of an Annamite or a Cambian a Parisian; that the life of a colonial Frenchman.

that they must make an effort to well insure them that an "open" introduction of the international criminal exposes all to dangerous infection. For international unity not founded on international justice and supported by international righteousness will fall as quickly as the provincial house built on sand. It is very important that the United States did not take the mandate for the German West African colonies. They should have set an example in Africa itself of righteous control and helpful direction in the government of the natives. This would tend more to encourage had administrative policies on the part of other colonial governments in Africa, than all the protests at what being done, or all the preachments. What should be done, that might be and through a thousand and generations of those who know how it ought to be done, but insist upon keeping themselves a proof from the job.
Few will feel that America should be a very vital part in the development of Africa. That this, one of the greatest, if not the greatest, task before modern civilization should go, forward entirely without the cooperation of the people of the United States, is almost unthinkable. But if their interest is only in intellectual, moral and religious matters, like, if they renounce every claim to political control of some part of the continent, however small that part may be, they deliberately push aside the greatest opportunity that may ever have to effectively influence the development of the vast populations of Africa along right lines. When, in the future, there is unjustifiable exploitation of the natives by other governments, as there has been in some instances in the past, of course, the American will want to point out the mistakes of the erring governments, and insist on a change of procedure; but the insistence will be far more effective, if only they can say at the time: See how we do the job for the same people under the same conditions.
Civilization of Africa.
May be Liberia's financial distress at this time, and her appeal to Washington for aid, is an insistent Providence seeking still another way to tie up the interest of the United States government in a more vital way with the civilization of Africa's millions. Liberia, to be sure, is not a very large territory, especially when the whole continent is considered; but the success of its government in realizing democratic ideals inevitably will make it a tremendous power in bringing light and freedom to all the children of the Dark Continent. In this larger sense, it is of far greater concern that Liberia be maintained as a free government with the highest kind of individual freedom and responsibility, then that it be kept under the ideological control of black men.
basis, provided only that they be trained to the highest degree of work development, and that they be trained to work in the highest degree of humanity, and especially that they be trained to the highest degree of the judiciary, the United States government would take a thoroughly scientific and comprehensive pride of the Liberian science, and not with the help of a few million dollars and a financial commission to administer it; it should receive all work assistance in getting the little nation well started on the road of progress. This would mean immensely more for world peace and brotherhood than the splendid work our government is doing in the Philippine Islands. It would immediately help all Africa, and, incidentally, hasten the day of its salvation. Because it would also make the way possible for our government some day to retrieve the present mistake of leaving Africa almost wholly in the hands of selfish interest.
Nevertheless, Washington may continue indictably its old policy of hands off in the political affairs of Africa. In such an event it remains for that element in the body politic who are connected with Africa by ties of blood, united to seize the opportunity thus about to escape their government, and lend their fullest cooperation in bringing Liberia speedily to that state of national development where its influence may be felt throughout Africa. They can do this without the wholesale immigration that has been suggested in some quarters, and with considerable advantage to themselves, in a financial way. The large native population is in need of industrial leadership; to which, as experience has shown, they would quickly respond.
Skilled Men Misplaced.
To be more explicit; it is a matter of common knowledge that men of color, trained in electrical mechanical and other engineering branches, as well as skilled artisans in other lines, are in many instances, in the United States, either idle or serving in other capacities, and not infrequently in mental positions, because the openings, in their chosen line of work, are deliberately closed against them. On the other hand our people have millions of dollars in savings banks that could be released for remunerative investments. The great opportunity is in bringing this skill and this money together, and organizing it for pioneer work in building industries in Liberia.
European items are literal's falling over each other today for a first look on the underdeveloped wealth of the little black republic. But if this work is left to them, there is little doubt but that the old methods of exploitation will be continued in force, instead of supplying the constructive leadership the situation demands. And now that Washington is coming out in the open with an arm of protection, help and encouragement about Monroya, her trust and only legitimate daughter, it enhances the opportunity a thousandfold, and makes it almost obligatory on the colored Americans to seize it without longer delay. It neglected at this crisis in the history of Liberia, it will be taken by others, and the colored Americans will stand bereft of one more chance to make "Friends to themselves of the manhood of unrightownness" being less wise than "the sons of this world are for their own generation."
However, should the help extended to Liberia by the government at Washington be just a loan and nothing more, and the old barriers still hold firm against governmental participation in African affairs, and the colored Americans likewise have in on their inexhaustible difference to and inter slack of authentic information concerning the economic difficulties and possibilities of the little country, there remains still another spilled opportunity to hasten the realization of Christian ideals among the number of Africa.
All concerned are agreed that industrial leadership is Labra's deepest need at the present time. This it must have whether imported or indigenous to the soil, to labour or nature both, with or without a base. There can be no real progress until all activities of the government have their since foundation in well organized and permanent industries. Universities are industries must be in the hands of the ones of the soil. It must be at this point the Methodist Churcha is seeking to make its contribution to the national progress by instituting in Libertia a system of indus-

It is a fine example of cooperation and effective service. Jessie O. Thomas, field secretary of the National Urban League, is in charge at Atlanta. His office is a good example of community service. When we were recently in Atlanta we sought an opportunity to find out what goes on in this busy office suite of three rooms in corner of the great Old Fellows Building in the course of a day. We remembered that when the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was meeting in Atlanta a representative of the Urban League gave at least fifteen hours of service at the registration headquarters, in aid of this other organization.
This gives an idea of the possibility of cooperation among Negroes, also Negro organizations that are carrying out different parts of the one common program of that race. For example, it was the distinctive opportunity of the N. A. A. C. U., to organize the colored people of Atlanta into a voting and publicity power that could compel the city officials to promise a certain part of the big Bond Issue for a Negro High School; but on our last visit to Atlanta, we saw enough of Jesse O. Thomas' office to understand that after this bond issue was voted, the pledges made, it will be largely the opportunity of the Urban League to see that the urbanite be out and has a property and suitable location for the school is, secured and that other important details of convenience and accommodation are respected.
If you stand by as an onlooker in the Atlanta office of the League, you will see a procession like this.
A committee of citizens formulating plans for street improvement in the colored sections, to be approved by the Bond Commissioner.
Another group, checking up on the educational and housing surveys and making suggestions concerning the colored high school plans, in accordance with bond "Campaign pledges."
The telephone rings. It is the Recorder's Court. Some one in trouble. It is a young colored woman, who refused to pay a second fare on the "Jim Crow" end of the street car. The field secretary, who has some contempt with these authorities, is asked to come and give her girl out of the clutches of this wielding. Then a group of colored nurses, employed by the city, are met to consider ways of bringing pressure to bear for the remedy of some condition. Even a committee of physicians come in to information on mid-wifery, from a surrial training with a view to providing this leadership.
Work at the Church.
The church feels, and quite correctly, that every other feature of its missionary propaganda in West Africa depends for its largest success upon the success attained along this line. The ultimate goal in all missionary work is to create a self-supporting, self-directing following. This is possible only among separate and independent units of society that can and will utilize to the greatest advantage to themselves and others the natural resources at their command.
If there is seen to be a lack of enterprise and initiative, or even a proper appreciation of the value of what nature provides, among those whose salvation the missionary seeks, his first duty is not merely to preach Christ, but to adopt the kind of training he calculated to instill these elements of character, and to show how with them the people may discover and use wealth in supplying their own life needs. In no other way can the very high standards of life imposed by the Christian religion be maintained.
Upon this platform the church hopes to bring together in one the whole-hearted support of all individuals and smaller groups in America, who are totally convinced that an hour of destiny in the history of the little Negro nation on the West Coast of Africa has struck, and that the hour is treasured with marvelous possibilities for the Kingdom of God.

vey made by the secretary looking toward the passage of a state law on the subject. The colored matron from police headquarters, who seem to have been appointed by the influence of the League, comes in to get information about smoothing over the difficulties she finds herself "ing against". Then another woman, sent by Traveler's Aid, robbed on train, and stranded--Yet another woman, bringing a daughter who needs psychopathic treatment! A father brings in an incorigible son, A "Big Brother" seeks through the League office to get in touch with a "Little Brother." The League is continually busy with the DETAILS of the lives of WHITE and COLORED people. For example, ever since there has been a Recorder's Court, colored women pris-

Vice President of American Medical Association Testifies to this Tonic's Value
Dr. W. C. Wile, formerly Vice-President of the American Medical Association—testified, under oath, that he used Dr. Siegert's Angustura Bitters in his practice as a stomachic, an anti-pasodic for nervous diseases and hysteria, and as a tonic, also as a stomach corrective in acute alcoholism after a debauch. Praise from such an authority is high praise indeed.
Dr. W. C. Wile, formerly Vice-President of the American Medical Association—testified, under oath, that he used Dr. Siegert's Augusta Bitters in his practice as a stomachic, an anti-pasmodic, for nervous disease and hysteria, and as a tonic, also as a stomach corrective in acute alchoholism after a debauch. Praise from such an authority is high praise indeed.
Don't confuse Augusta Bitters with any other tonic. Twenty-five International Expositions in every part of the world have awarded it the first prize. In all history no other tonic has ever received a like number of awards or has been granted such distinctions from the leading governments and crowned heads of Europe, Kings and Emperors have publicly endorsed Dr. Siegert's Augusta Bitters.
Our absolute Guarantee: We do not ask you to experiment. Our absolute guarantee is behind every bottle of Dr. Seigert's Angostura Bitters. If it does, snap on it and unzip any unwrapped gift will return your money. Don't take this great tonic and invigorate it in an empty bottle, spoonful in an equal amount or more of water, taken before meals and before retiring.

And so the work goes on through this organization, supplementary to that of other organizations, working to better the condition and raise the status of the American Negro, and make America a better place for black and white to live in. They organized day nurseries, E. Stout's Banking Club, Big Lather and Big Sister Movements. They and hundreds of other firms join the industry that employ colored workers, making questions about welfare work and well-worker, and make complaints who adavable.
We have one suggestion to make, not to the Urban League, but to all organizations doing an effort of the work in behalf of interracial betterment: THAT THE EXECUTIVE STAFFS SHOULD HAVE ONE COMBINED ANNUAL CONFERENCE FOR HARMONIZING AND COORDINATING METHODS, AND FOR MUTUAL HELP.

“World” is really a radical newspaper :
~ Wt is a matter of egret because of the powerul influence
which the “World exerts throughout the count:y cn public opinion
‘The “World” has carried three editorials on the Dyer Ann-
Lynching: Bill and each aie has been in opposition In ats opinton
om the Anti-Lynching Bill the New York “Worl!” stands alone
amnong the reputable newspapers ui New York City. The “Tintes *
the ““Frybune,” the “Globe.” the “Post™ and several ather New
York shuhes have carried strong editorials urging the passage al
the Tell :
The “Waorki® states that “no newspaper in. the comntry bas
more consistently and more bitterly fought the lynching evil" than
liseli, and this is true. He goes on te state that it, bases ite oh
jection te the Bi purely on the ground of constututionality. The
“Workl” ieels that to attempt to stop Iynching by federal law ts,
in its own words, “to dynch the Constitution.”
In its first editorial on this question the “World” said, “li
Congress ts consutitianally competent te enact an aatclynehiys
Jaw rt as cemsntutionally competent to enact an antebandit law
ard te assess damages of ten thoutend dollars agaist the State
ef New York for every hold-up within its bounds for the benent ef
the, plundered victim.” * |
TC as astonishing to see seh a misconception and miscan-

Leen put to death by mobs within the last thirty years, and nota

‘To fellow out the ialse analogy drawn by the “World”. if

A meeting of this association January 9th, at the New York probably be the warmest meeting
A basketball war was started in Harlem on New Year's Day between the Metropolitan basketball Association and two distant member clubs, the Spartan Field Club and the Borough Athletic Club, when they used two players who had been declared professional by the registration committee of the association. The names of these two players, Frank Forbes and Leon Monde, have been under consideration for some time, and although cards were issued to them early in the season, three cards were recalled when it was proved that they both played professional baseball during the summer months.
By playing these two men, both the Spartan and B. A. C. teams will be classed as professionals by the other member teams of the M. B. A., and it is likely that no member team will be allowed to play either of these teams. However, the Spartans have games with Loendi, the Puritans, and very likely the Forty Club of Chicago, which will prevent a boycott by the local teams from hurting them very much this season. The Brooklyn Temp on the other hand, will feel the effect of such a boycott very much more than the Spartans.
The action of the Spartans in defying the boycott is thought to be due to the fact that the St. Christopher Club, which was one of the moving strids in the formation of this association, has become one of its dominating forces. As these two clubs have been fighting each other for the past two years, it is thought that the Spartan Club would rather wreak the association than see it controlled by St. Christopher.
A meeting of this association will be held on Thursday night, January 9th, at the New York Institute Academy, which will probably be the warmest meeting yet held by that organization.

For the moment, the atmosphere of the motion picture comes into a typical Empire or Latonia scene in which one horse himself again could naturally be bled by the vast throng and struggle for a point of vantage as the horses parade before the admiring crowds. Again there is the suspense the riders prokes for advantage at the wire, the snap of the barrier, the clatter "They're Off," the clatter of the subdued rage-
the impatient fairly lies down

will be a fitting for the entertainment

The feature picture now showing at this theatre, "The Unknown." It is tallied with any daring feats and thrilling exploits. The scenes for this picture are laid in one of our large western cities, but is typical of the high living conditions throughout the country and the efforts of the people to combat them. The hero, Dick Talmade, assumes the role of a champion of the people by exposing the hazarded food shipments which are later thrown on the market at an advanced price. His glaring details in this role as "The Unknown" soon become the talk of the country. There is a place of new roles and thrilling exploits in the picture, and also a girl who nurthes the strong love interest. It is being shown Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of this week.

HARRY ROBINSON
ENGLISH EDITION
KNOCKS OUT. LEWIS
At the weekly boxing show of the 15th Regiment held on New Year's Eve Harry Robinson of the 15th Regiment knocked out Joe Lewis of the Naval Militia in the second round of a scheduled twelve round bout. Lewis is rarely fought a ten round draw with Young Sgiol Langford, and was one of the contenders for the middleweight championship of the National Guard. He did not get started against Robinson before he was knocked down. He was knocked down twice in the second round and practically counted out both times, but was urged to go on by his friends. The last time he was knocked down, however, he could not be prevailed upon to get up. Both fighters weighted 158-14 pounds.
Jim Green of the 15th won a decision over Alex Gibbons, also of the 15th, in the twelve round and final contest. Although Green beat Gibbons in every round of the bout, the peculiar style of fighting that Gibbons was kept high from being knocked out by Gibbons is a young fighter with unusually natural strength, and it is not the best that his trainer does not teach him to fight in the proper manner, and not cover up and see how much he is treating the cane. Green's weight was 152 pounds, and Gibbons 169.
There were only two preliminary bouts; on one Knight Horton and How Taylor fought another draw, but there was little of the kind of fighting that was witnessed in their other bouts. Horton did not seem to be making a genuine effort to defeat his opponent in the other preliminary. And Jackson
knocked out Alabama Kill in the second round of a scheduled four-round contest.

The Carlisle Five of Washington, D. C., did not prove as difficult, for the Spartan Braves to defeat this year as they did just, as the Capital City team was completely unbuckled at Manhattan Casino on New Year's afternoon. The Spartan team was at top form, and Wallace Shoot and Sessoms shot baskets from all angles. The best work on the Washingtonians was done by Turner and Layton. The score of the game was 44-22.

DR R. U. McCLENNAN DEAD.
Charleston, C. S. The community was greatly shocked on Tuesday afternoon. November 20th to learn of the sudden death of Dr. Ridley U. McClennan as his home on Vanderbilt street. Dr. McClennan was supposed to have been in perfect health. He had complained a few days saying to his death of having a rather peculiar pain in the left side of his chest, but he spoke very lightly of it saying that it was a slight digestive disturbance and that he was going to be more careful of his diet for a few days. He attended the theatre on Monday evening, and kept his usual noon hour on Tuesday. Entering his home Tuesday afternoon he suggested to him to come go shopping with him and whale she was preparing to do so, he went into an adjoining room where he was found in a fainting condition a few minutes later. Medical and was immediately summoned but Dr. McClennan was claimed by the High and Heavenly Host shortly afterwards. The deceased was the son of the late Dr A.
C. and Ridley McCleman, and was born in this city on January 2nd, 1887. He completed his high school career in Washington, D. C. was a member of the class of 1908 Chalm University, and the class of 1912. At the Medical College of Shaw University Since shortly after his graduation he beheaded in the time of his death, enjoyed a lavish and lucrative practice. He was the superintendent of the Cannon Street Hospital, which institution was founded by his father. A member of John L. F. A. M. and a director of the Federal Federation Bank.
Dr. McCleman was married to Miss M. Louise Hower of Raleigh, N.C. in the spring of 1917 and she and in unfame son, his mother and two sisters, Miss Harriette McCleman and M. M. Thomas of Boston, usurp him. Funeral services were held from St. Mark's Episcopal Church, of which he was a member, and interment was made in the Humeane and Freedley Cemetery. Fall batters both honorary and active were members of the Charleston County Medical Association. No were beautiful triumph of flowers were ever seen. In serving the life of Dr. McCleman we had him to be a brilliant scholar, a talented player, a loving husband, a true friend and a trusted companion. Death the unfortunate are for our sad memory. I am not sure if life will continue in shine and our prayer that his life will will up and walk in the streets made for his noble father.

the purpose of the instructors to afford the young women a larger vision, preparing them for greater fields of usefulness as executive secretaries, girl workers and as secretaries in other departments.
During their stay the group visited many places of historic interest, including Fortress Monroe and Laugley Field. The workers attending the course were Miss V. Heuchamp of Lynchburg, Va.; Miss B. Butler of Asheville, N.C.; Miss V. Carter of Baltimore, Miss Cooper of Charleston, S.C.; Miss Darr of Newport News, Va.; Miss & S. Fraser of Columbus, Ohio; Miss H.

their attitude of opposition toward the colored race and to destroy the unjust prejudice against it and cause a doing away with disfranchisement and other oppressive measures denying colored people the ballot.
Speaking of the deceased reminiscently and wishing that all the white people of the State were present to witness for themselves by the evidences at hand what one colored man alone had done not only for himself, the citizen and father but for the State in giving great services and worthy and notable children, all respected for their education, their successes in life, pursuit and their standing in their respective communities, by Res. John Marks speaking of him as a churchman; by the veteran doctor and surgeon, J. T. Newman, telling of all the credit the dead for the political schools that the colored people have in the city; and by the pastor of the Progressive Church relating how the damneded Res. Landry planned and worked out in every detail the building of the beautiful storm proof church office in which the funeral way being held.
The Rev Pierre Landry, fondly remembered as "Calliste" Landry by many who knew him when he was yet a young man in Assonian Parish, where he had many offices of trust and honor, such as justice of the peace, police, juror, member of the school board, assessor representative in the general assembly, senator, master of the town of Donaldsmillie and a leading light in the Methodist Episcopal Church for years, was twice married—the first time to Miss Amanda Brigidie of Bornside who here him thirteen children, and the second time to Miss Florence A. Simpson of Manfield, La., who bore him twin. He married his first wife in 1881 when she was about 16 years of age and be 22. It was a happy union of two young people who believed in each other, trusted each other, lived for each other, and the children of the welllock, until the wife went to receive the everlasting reward of the dear mother and faithful helpmate in 1883, leaving the husband to mourn her loss and to care by himself for the twelve bright boys and girls of the family, that the love and the pride of both together appeared not as much as they would have these children enjoy. Reverend Landry took the loss of this noble woman hard, but determined with the help of God his child, should want for nothing that he could give them in the way of good training for their conduct in life and the education that would place them in the position to look out for themselves when they reached maturity.
The result of this fatherly determination speaks eloquently for itself in the fact that every living one of these children is a shining mark in his or her respective community, all being well educated and all following some honorable profession or calling of their own choice and doing well in their pursuit of life. There is Polymershed Landry, a graduate of Stiright University, in the teaching profession now more than thirty years, who is principal of the high school at Phoenix, Arianna; Charmie Landry, who is a graduate of Common Theological College, a minister in the Methodical Episcopal Church; L. Bauschaffield Landry, M.D. a practicing physician and surgeon of this city, so well recognized for his ability that he is one of the prominent persons for the highest grades in Lansing Landry. He was born in Lansing, Mass.
A TRIBUTE.
(Br. V. P. THOMAS.)
cured also, who is a trusted employee in the railroad service; there is Eldridge Landry, a graduate of pharmacy, who is doing chemical work in the federal service in Savannah, Ga. Of the daughters, also of the first marriage, there is Mrs. Mickelie Terrell, principal of the Houston College, of which her husband, L. H. Terrell, is president of, Houston, Texas, who has two children fully educated and filling important positions of honor and trust; there is Mrs. Nellie F. Alston, wife of Dr. Alston, a district superintendent of the Methodist Episcopal Church, with whom she went and spent several years as missionaries to Africans in Africa; and there is Mrs. George Gilton of Algeria, one of the teachers, the public schools of Jefferson Parish. Four other children of the first marriage have died.
Rev. Landry's second marriage was an equally happy union of a nun and a woman who loved and cherished each other for better or worse until death again made him a widower. Of this union there came two more brilliant children for him to rear and go properly prepare for life on their own account. He had married Miss Simpson in 1880, three years after the death of the mother of the first set of children, when his activities in life were combined almost entirely to church work and when it was about as hard for him to supply the needs of two children as it had been for him to do so not four times before. But Rev. Landry had the will and he found the way to do equally as well by his children of his second marriage as he had done by those of the first.
One is a medical and surgical graduate now practicing medicine and surgery in the great city of Chicago, where he is making a creditable mark for himself in his profession. He is Dr. O. William Landry. The other is the devoted wife of Rev. H. H. Dunn, four years pastor of Central Congregational Church, but now field secretary of the American Missionary Association schools in the South.
His home in Donaldsonville where he lived and was honored and seemed equally by white and colored people alike and where the biggest and broadest man of light and learning as well as humble and howly people often went to see and consult him on affairs of state and other matters, among whom were congressmen, governors, United States senators and other men of high caliber, was a home of trust hospitality and welcome, a home where all who wanted felt it charmed by the good will and cordiality of host and hostess of the family, and by the brightness of the happy children of the family. No ordinary man ever occupied the place in life that the Rev. Mr. Landis filled in the hearts and confidence of the people in Ascension parish and more ever will; no ordinary man ever did as much nor his wife and children as Rev. Mr. Landis did for his and none ever will. His life was a tree that bore good fruits by which the world can well judge the worth of the man in it.
When we reflect upon what we see in the fruits of the family life of the Rev. Mr. Landry, canon will dictate that we class him among the worthiest men the race ever produced in this State. He was always gracious and indulgent; he was always willing and ready to hear and consider the other fellow's side of the question, and he loved God, and taught love of God and truth to families and fellowmen, trusting more in the reward of the Just promised by the Sinner than in the temporary advantages to be gained by unscrupulous sharp practice. He wanted, I believe, to so live that when his summons came to join that innumerable crowd that moves to that mysterious realm, where each shall take his room in the silent halls of death, he might go, not like the prison slave at night by force of whip or stick, driven to his dungeon, but, like the man whose work was done for the day and was about to retire to bed, approaches his grave as he would this couch sh绳 to lay and sketch out his body, drawing the covering of the bed upon himself and dropping to pleasant dreams sustained and washed by an unfaltering trust that all with him is well.
As I looked upon him in his bed drawing his last breath of life Wednesday noon, I recalled the lines just quoted from Bryant on death, and left that they well fitted his case. I asked God in fervent prayer to rest his soul in peace and thanked Him for having given us such a man to live among us to give us an idea how best to live and to die—
When I witnessed that there was gathered around him this galaxy of childre in love and devotion in commu-
mion of sorrow and regret tenderly and finally administering to the one who had been so much to them in life, there was I felt, a voice of one Supreme Authority saying to me: "There lies a beloved one of whom I am well pleased.

Pastor Bolden dwelt on the emphasis of God's love, and said that Elijah, a peasant, worked for his master from the spirit of love "within; very different from other men who worked for selfish ambition." Elijah's life was a series of signs and symbols. He closed the service by urging the people to let the love of God cleanse our hearts and make our bodies fit temples for the in dwelling of the Holy Spirit this New Year. The Sunday-school had a large attendance. Supt. Hogans conducted the opening exercises and the review of the lesson. Pastor Bolden spoke to the children at the close of the meeting.

It they didn't enjoy themselves anywhere else or in any other way, rest assured that our meeting was full of enjoyment to all. Girls, we really had a big time, Santa Claus was in our mind, and not a person did he forget. Our program for the evening was planned by Bright Eyes, and it ran as follows: First, we had a general chat about Christmas (such as all girls do when they get together), next, the Victoria was started up, with some lovely, catchy songs that aroused the pent up, subdued feelings of everyone. "Bubbles" began to resemble "Laughter" and "Moonbeams" was changed to "Smiles" and "Ethel" the picture of "Happiness" and so on throughout the bunch. Next on program was a friddle, in which every member had to perform an act, just for amusement's sake. Well, here's where talent was displayed. "Snookums" imitated a baby in kindergarten, reciting a funny poem; "Moonbeams" and I sang a Christmas song; "Ethel" cracked some comical pokes; and "Gay" gave us an imitation of a Japanese dance she had recently seen. But girls, it I were to tell you all that went on you never knew, but I must tell about the cats. We had a real Chinese superior, which everyone thoroughly enjoyed. I won't tell you any longer now, but I will say that if you used a million dollars worth of railroad fares all over the earth, you'd find no one who wished for you more joy in the New Year than the Wonder Girls now do. Greetings for the New Year from BRIGHT EYES.
DEAR GIRLS:
Happy New Year to everyone. I have not written since last year. Girls. I had the nicest Xmas present imaginable. "Ethel" has returned to New York. Only the girls who know "Ethel" will understand me. Has any one made any new resolutions? Inhaven't yet. "Red." my cousin, Gretchen Betts, spent the Holidays with me. She asked about you and your brother. "Kid Palmer." I am answering your letter at last. Our "Gay" was not able to attend the last meeting as she was sick, we missed her very much, didn't we "Wonder Girls?" I did especially. I didn't know what to do without her. So, please Msg "Gay." I hope you will be able to attend our next meeting so that I won't
The Southern Methodist women's Missionary Council is supporting a colored trained nurse for public health work in South Carolina, the nurse being, as it happens, a member of the Episcopal church. She works among the congested colored population of the lower counties. So not only goes personally into the homes and schools of her people, but through the colored women's clubs has had remarkable success in enlisting the educated women of her race as helpers. The local auxiliaries of Southern Methodist women also aid the work by interesting white women of the churches and federated clubs in health conditions among the Negroes. The work of the nurse is under the direction of Mrs. Dodd, the woman official of the State Board of Health.
CORNS LIFT RIGHT OUT
MINTOL the World's Greatest Remedy Ends All Foot Troubles
Boston, Mass.-Says that recent tests have proven without doubt that corn can be removed without the use of acids and poisonous green liquids by a new treatment recently discovered by a Boston Chemist. Just ask your drummist for one ounce of Mintol; it is inexpensive and can be applied in a jelly, people who have used it are amazed at its wonderful effect. Rid yourself of those painful corns or tired, burning, swollen, aching feet in a few minutes; it is wonderful how it draws out the inflammation it takes the soreness out and the corn, or callous shrivels up and "fetts feet off without a bit of pain and so easy to cutting, no irritation of the surrounding skin. It imparts a delightful, cooling, soothing feeling to the feet and if applied at night your feet will feel ten years younger in the morning. It presents sweaty feet foot odor, and keeps them sweet and comfortable. Home Ketter Laboratories, Boston, Mass.

A Happy New Year to my unknown sisters. It has been an age since I have written to the column, however. I have been a silent observer. "Brownies" you guessed my mistress. Who told you, "Laughter?" "Laughter," didn't we meet in a mysterious way? "Smiles," nothing is the trouble. Dearest All is well. I wrote to "Kindness" and she sent me the loveliest Christmas Card, accompanied by a very entertaining letter. "Happiness," your poem is capital. Keep it up. Some of those days you will be earning your bread and butter from your poetic ability. December the 5th was my birthday. Just think (2) years old. I was not a Christmas gift, and not a New Year's present. What was I? I have been posing as granny, but I will not do it anymore. Every one is trying to get younger and am posing as old. PIT-a-PAT.

Suspected stomach troubles, such as indigestion, loss of sourness, stomach acidity and inability to retain food are in probable nature; cases out of ten, simply evidence that excessive secretion of acid is taking place in the stomach creating formation of gas and acid indigestion. Gas distends the stomach and causes that full, oppressive, burning feeling sometimes known as heartburn, when the acid irritates and inflames the digestive lining of the stomach. The symptoms entirely in the excess development or secretion of acid.
To stop or prevent this souring of the food contents of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and harmless, a teaspoonful of Bisurated Magnesia is good and effective corrector of acid stomach, should be taken in quarter of a glass of hot or cold after eating or wherever has popped or adults is felt. This sweetest stomach and neutralizes the acidity in few moons and is a perfectly harmless and expensive remedy to take. An anatomy, such as Bisurated Magnesia which can be obtained from a druggist in either powder or tablet, enables the stomach to do its work properly without the aid of artificial digests. Magnesia comes in several forms so be certain to ask for and take Bisurated Magnesia, which is especially prepared for the above purpose.

Fleet St. Church, Brooklyn.
"Watch night," was intimately observed at First Street Church by an unprecedented audience. At 9:30 p.m. Dr. Brown began the service with the Old Year reflections. A retrospection of the year passing was not an easy gaggle to the New Year's prophet until the old standards seemed; had been consistently wrecked and attacked by activities emerging from the mistakes and implausible experiences of the recent past had been erected in the hearts of the throng that crowded the church. A substantial purse was presented the pastor from members and friends of the church. Sunday morning the pastor's theme "Well done," equalities that will arise in the lives of many and which ought to prove of invaluable aid in shaping the resolutions for the New Year. The evening theme, "Our efforts in the salvation of others," was the beginning of the revival Services. The sermon by the pastor was a charmed message. Few persons was limited with the baptism that was performed at the shrine.
The Duplex system of collection was initiated at the services Sunday and induction are that the new financial system will meet the favorable cooperation as has been characteristic of all Dr. Johnson's plans.
