JAPAN AND CHINA HOLD OWN IN BATTLE OF WITS AT CONFERENCE TABLE
FIRST IN LIVE NEWS ALL THE TIME
VOL. XXI. NO. 48
Darker Races of the World are Contending With the Whites For Justice and Equality of Opportunity.
FRANCE SHOWS SPIRIT OF JUSTICE
(Wy The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C.,—Is this a white man's world? In the last analysis, that seems to be the big question before the Limitation of Armament Conference.
Naval and Land Armament have been discussed; the Far Eastern Question is under consideration; social courtesies are extended to all members of the Conference in the same proportion, seemingly, yet behind every act and every move there looms up the great shadow of the darker races of the world contending with the whites for justice and equality of opportunity.
It has been interesting to observe the "battle of wits" from the press reservation in the conference chambers. Both Japan and China have matched, at every stage of the grane, the wisdom and diplomacy of the British, Great Britain, France and all the others. There is an instinctive feeling of pride, for one on this side to observe the combination of colors.
Premier Arigtide Briand, the eloquent statesman of France, has come nearer than any of the others of the white races in reaching the soul of the other peoples. Rugged, earnest and convincing in logic and oratory, he stood about the green tables, while the world sat at his feet. One after another, in great address on Land Armament, allowed expressions of more or less approval, but there stands his message, a masterpiece of statesmanship utterances.
France, more than any of the other great powers of the world, has risen above the petty sophistries of color. France is loved by the Colored people of America, because she has interwoven with the spirit of her national life, the spirit of true liberty and justice.
THINGS TO ACCOUNT
Said M. Briand, in pleading for the well being of his nation, to have peace in the world, there "Must be a moral disarmament." He was speaking of Germany in particular, but the same principle holds true with reference to Lynching in the South, or any other incident after all is said and done is this: Are the hearts of the people right?
It must not be forgotten that the nine nations represented at the Conference officially, may represent the present powers of the earth, but they do not represent, by many millions, the physical possibilities of all the world. Japan knows this, and China is not forgetting it.
One of the Japanese visitors addressed a mass meeting of Colored Americans at the Metropolitan baptist Church, Canada, and he brought a message of great significance to those who heard him. He told of the importance of all the Colored races of the world pulling together for the best things of life. He, as we, recognizes the fact that the rising tide of color has not reached its zenith.
English delegates are deeply concerned about conditions in India. There has been considerable inside discussion of the attitude displayed there towards the Prince of Wales visit.
What is coming next? There is an atmosphere of curious expectancy noted everywhere.
AMERICAN REPRESENTATIVES
One cannot help from noticing the fine measure of esteem accorded the American representatives. From the public point of view, there is every feeling that the United States is ably accounted for by Secretary Hughes, Senator Lodge, Senator Underwood and Elizu Root. There is a combination to be respected anywhere, and it has been wondered more than once, that it was ofolly, what might have happened at that time had Woodrow Wilson appointed them as delegates who think for themselves and are permitted to act.
There is yet no exact telling just what the Conference will finally adopt. There is caution, but if there is suspicion, it has been very cleverly hidden. President Harding is keeping hands off, in contradiction to a certain other President who assayed a firearm and fireman; conductor and motorman; having a "single track mind," according to a "own expression, possibly he was constrained to develop the habit of playing a single handed game. Be that as it may, the world is "all shot to pieces," and if the doctors here assembled can give the proper diagnosis and administer the proper medicine, we may not be out of the trenches by Christmas, but we will be thankful forevermore.
It may not be regarded out of place to state to the "Fassing World," in closing, that The Associated Negro Press has the only active newspaper representative present, in behalf of Colored Americans, at sessions of the Conference. Nahum Daniel Brascher, Editor-in-chief of The Associated Negro Press, has been granted creaturely seals, and with other newspaper representatives, the american Press Section. Mr. Brascher's seat is just back of H. G. Wells, the British Correspondent, and directly opposite the seat of Wm. Jennings Bryan.

Southern White Women Act In Behalf of Colored People
Richmond, Va.—The women's section of the Virginia State Committee on International Co-operation adopted a series of resolutions deploring a fire hatred and requesting an intelligent study of the Negro, improved living conditions; the emphasis on constituted bodies. The resolutions are signed by a group of Richmond's most prominent women.
Birmingham, Ala.—For the first time white women in the south have banded themselves together for the purpose of "furthering the interests of all." The Alabama women's committee on inter-racial co-operation composed of women from all sections of the state who are interested in inter-racial problems and set forth their intentions of working for a betterment of conditions for the common good of all. The women want equal enforcement of the law for all and protest vigorously against mob violence. They resent the claim that lynching is necessary for the protection of white womanhood. The most common feature of their utterances is that they plead for a single standard of men and urge white men to join with them in a crusade for the protection of the womanhood of both races.
MAN LYNCHED
IN ARKANSAS
Little Rock,—The Arkansas Gatherer has received information that Robert Hicks, colored was lynched Wednesday. The cause of the lynching is said to be a note that Hicks wrote to a woman. Every effort was made to keep the news of the lynching from being known, but after the coroner had given his evidence that the man came to his death the hands of persons unknown to the jury the news was given out. The lynching occurred in Chiot county but four miles south east of Lake Village. The county judge and the sheriff who were hunting trip are reported to have disimmed my knowledge of the affair.
NORFOLK, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY DECEMBER 3. 1921
Dr. J. R. A. Crossland Visits Disabled Vets

C. spent a few days, during the post at the Tuskegee institute, reviewing methods of training and the methods of instruction of this institute.

FORD CONFERS WITH HOOVER
Purchase of Muscles Shoals by Great Manufacturer and Financier Will Give Employment to a Million Men.
(The Associated Negro Press)
Washington, D. C.,—Henry Ford, of Detroit, has been to town. There is news with a punch. You cannot separate the name of Henry Ford from news any more than you can separate Henry Ford from the world famous automobile that bears his name. Newspaper correspondents fly for him like chickens in the old barnyard fly for corn. So insistent and the fourth Estate been the Knights of the Fourth Estate are descending to get the "dope" from Mr. Ford, a goodly portion of his very valuable time in life is spent in playing the ancient and honorable childhood game of "hide and seek."
Mr. Ford indulged in it on his latest Washington trip. He came here by special appointment to confer with the Honorable Secretary of War, Mr. Weeks, on the subject of purchasing Muscle Shoals for so many millions of dollars. Secretary Weeks became suddenly clash in the War Department called to Washington hotels seeking to find Mr. Ford, when he was to be told the conference would be transferred to the Honorable Secretary of Commerce, Mr. Hoover. When the lmp.of hope had almost flickered its last flicker, someone discovered that the great matriarch and financier was living in his private car at the union station, where it was connected with the District of Columbia telephone system.
ELICES WHITE HOUSE SCHRIRES
Following the conference with Mr. Hoover, Mr. Ford made a "personal" call on President Harding at the house. The seriess saw him go in the main entrance, and straightway set up a sharpening his pencil to get the "thirty-view" on the retreat. They waited, cuffed, and finally became suspicious, nothing of alarmed; and on investigation discovered that he had long since left the habitat of presidents through a basement side door.
MUSCLE SHOALS OPERATIONNELY
No doubtless, Mr. Ford has made a personal government for the purpose of Muscle Shoals that is receiving the most serious consideration, with the completion of the researches the possibilities are so gigantic in the field of economic development, that the imagination is staggered.
Mr. Ford has declared: "If the government will sell its Muscle Shoals project, will put the South on the North, and what he meant, Mr. Ford replied that he would give employment to a million men.
Heroin enters the Confederated American in a way that gives an entire vision in the field of racial development and adjustment. It is a known fact that eighty per cent of the labor on Muscle Shoals Dam, in Alabama, under construction during the war period, was performed by Negroes. This included skilled and unskilled labor.
The Government has spent more than $105,000,000 of the peoples money on the project already, and the entire proposition is now completed. Completed Muscles Shoals means marvelous horse power, by a system of dams. Aluminum and nitrate will be manufactured on a scale unheard of in America. Aluminum is fast building the metal of the age, and nitrate has many uses, one of the chief being its fertilizing powers. It is stated on the highest authority that the racial farmers the South, at little cost, will be able to double the capacity of their farms in cotton and other products.
Therefore, who knows? As Abraham Lincoln emancipated the Rince from the bondage, so Henry Ford may be the emancipator of industrial bondage.
DR. PICKENS LECTURES IN STATE OF FLORIDA
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Jacksonville, Fla., "The visit of Dr. Wm. Pickens to our city and state will have a telling effect on the social economic condition of our people. His addresses and lectures were quite in the air and left a lasting impression on those who heard him. The Armistice Day celebration were held separately. The whites paid no attention to the Negroes and vice versa. The former had a gigantic parade and prominent orders delivered addresses to them. The Negroes their celebration in Ebenezer M. E. Kearns, Rev. A. H. Attaway and Prof. John W. Wright, President of Edward Waters College were the principal speakers and both did justice to the occasion.

MUST PRESERVE OWN TRADITIONS
Hampton, Va.,—"There are certain things which Negroes in this country must do, if they hope to enjoy the blessings of real democracy; they must attain economic independence; they must have educational independence; they must develop a press; they must learn the value of tradition." Dr. Carter G. Woodson of Washington, D. C., well-known editor of the "Journal of Negro History," director of research for the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, and author of "Negro Education Prior to 1861" and "A Century of Negro Migration," made this declaration in a recent address, on "The Negro and Modern Democracy," which he delivered in Odgen Hall, Hampton,ude, before a large audience of Hampton and students. Doctor Woodson said: "The people who control the coal and iron, the banks, the stock markets and other valuable resources are the people who will dictate exactly what shall be done for every group in this land. Liberty is to come to the Negro, not as a bequest, but as a conquest; that is, the Negro must contribute something to the good of his race, his country, his God. The Negro must, find some avenue of business, to obtain something to the extent that he develop an industry or a business in which he can give some other Negro employment.
Appeal to Race Pride
"Until the Negro learns to do something for himself in the field of education he will never be able to consider himself a real man. If the Negro is not going to become an educational factor among his own people, he is not the leverage to lift him, in the case of his life, other people. A man is education when he can do without a teacher and when he can—and will—develop and grow without the stimulus of instruction.
Power of the Press
"Some Negroes never read a Negro newspaper. A few Negro newspapers tell the story of the Negro in a cool, calm way. They tell of the strivings of the Negro in such a way we us to be an inspiration to youth. Every Negro ought to read the publications of his race. "We complain because white newspapers publish our crimes and tell of the evils we do, but do not say anything of our achievements in those that test to stump us as a people of the Negro. We must learn to tell the story ourselves. Is our duty to develop a press.
Outlook for Negro Press
"Negroes should read something of their own people that they may be inspired thereby. We must realize that there are certain things in the Negro race which are worth development, those things may be worth as much to them as the better things of the white race, what they are properly developed.
"Let us study our history with the understanding that we are not, after all, an inferior people, but simply a slave, who goes back, a people whose process has been imputed. That history will inspire us to greater achievements.
COLONEL LEWIS IN CITY
Col. Matt N. Lewis, Editor and proprietor of the Newport News Star, and one of the leading business men of eastern Virginia was in the city Wednesday on business. Col. Lewis, who is the dean of the Colored newspaper fraternity in the State wields a trenchant pen, and the editorial page of the Star always sparkles with sound logic and wisdom as well as a wealth of information.

MARKET FLOODED
WITH SORGHUM
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Memphis, Tennessee.-Three Southern states--Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama--have produced a crop of more than 21,000,000 gallons of sorghum, a crop according to a compilation of figures lying yesterday by C. W. Watson, market specialist of the Farm Development Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce.
But it seems that nobody wants the stuff and the farmers who have it are opposing to keep it, at least until the crop is harvested. The crop and prices get back to something a profitable basis. About the best price offered for sorghum now is 25 cents per gallon and there are few dealers who want it even as a gift.
Porta Ricans Protest Against Administration

The governor landed from the steamer Tannamon Business carried in the crowd referred to the Governor as an "juutorent," to Porto Rico as "America's Ireland" and to the Relly administration as "mongrel rule." A fire in the hold of the ship, extinguished during the voyage, was blamed on Porto Ricans by some of the ship's officers.

REPUBLICANS REJECT JOHNSON
Senate Fails to Confirm Appointment of Georgian as the Recorder of Deeds For District of Columbia.
New York City.—The failure of the Republican majority in the Senate to confirm the nomination of Henry Lincoln Johnson is causing lots of comment here. The Senate uses as the reason for this amazing insult to the fifteen million Negroes of the United States the sheep-like obedience to a mossensical rule known as "Senatorial courtesy." Because Tom Watson, Senator from Georgia, said Mr. Johnson was personally objectionable to him, they—the Republican majority—automatically became bound to reject the foremost Negro statesmen in Amorion. Republicans—Congressmen and Senators,—you will have to get a better excuse than "Senatorial courtesy" of the congressional elections of 1922. Henry Lincoln Johnson is beloved of all Lincoln people and this desertion of him by the Republican party is causing resentment throughout the land.
James W. Johnson
Testifies on Hosti
New York. Totally refuse the committee of senators who are investigating the American seizure of the black republic of Haiti, James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Color People attributed much of the trouble in Haiti to color prejudice on the part of American Marines and office holders sent down there under the Wilson administration. Mr. Johnson, whose series of articles in the New York Nation entitled "Self-Determination of Haiti" attracted wide attention and helped to make Haiti an issue in the last presidential campaign, testified in Washington on Tuesday, November 15.
Prejudiced and small-calibre Americans had been sent down to Haiti, said Mr. Johnson, creating friction with the natives by reason of color prejudice they brought with them, which had never before existed in Haiti. Nor had the Americans made improvements on the island, Mr. Johnson continued, except roads which had been built by building Taitians. While in Haiti, Mr. Johnson had heard all the current stories of the atrocities attributed to United States Marines, he said some of these stories being told to him by officers of the Marine Corps.

Her audience was held spellbound from the time Miss Coppage appeared until the curtain fell.
Those in attendance expressed freely the opinion, that it was the best recital they have ever heard in this town.
Miss Coppage was assisted by talent from the State Normal School, (S. Caldridge Taylor's) "Trouble In Mine" appropriate music for the occasion was rendered by Mr. W. J. Freeman.

The faculty and student body express themselves as being greatly benefited by having heard Miss Coppage.
The program was very instructive and of the highest type of Dramatic Reading.
CLEF CLUB ON EXTENSIVE TOUR
The Chef Club, the famous New York organization of Negro musical artists has more than a passing reason for being thankful. During the present season officials of the body have been put to considerable difficulty to fill the engagements offered with musicians capable of maintaining the high standard for which they have become internationally famous. The Executive Committee of the Club has tentative plans for a tour of the organization in the interest of the building third floor of the Club and to provide some recreation for the members, at the same time acquaint more of the country with their interpretations of the metropolitan musical novelties. A series of business sketches amply the cares of those plans. The serving. For the demand for titles of the Club was so great that Pete Foster could be offered three times the membership of over 200. Pride in reputation of the "Chefies" sustained him as engagement after engagement was declined.
On January 23rd a hundred member# of the Club will present a vocal and instrumental concert at Carnegie Hall, New York City and all memberships are being made with this in view so that for that week the members scheduled for bite tour now be held in all probability the Club will appear in Washington, Philadelphia, Norfolk, Richmond and another city yet to be selected. The same program as is used at Carnegie Hall will be offered
School Teacher Accidentally Shot
Franklin, Va.,—Mrs. Sarah A. Councill, of Franklin, and a teacher in the Courtland Public School, was accidentally shot by a Jim Edwards, white, as she was returning from her school. Mrs. Councill had started home with her husband, but he had to return to a garage, so she and some of the children were walking on, waiting for him to overtake them. The children went on to their homes and at this time Mrs. Councill saw a car approaching. A man sitting in the car thinking he saw a rabbit fired, striking Mrs. Councill. Suit for $5,000 has been instituted against Edwards. Mrs. Councill is reported improving.
"LILY WHITES" GET
ANOTHER VICTORY
(By The Associated Press) Macon, Ga.,—Coincident with the installation here last Monday of Captain Charles L. Redding, of Waycross, as Asst. United States District Attorney, came the announcement that McLeod, newly appointed marshal for the district of Georgia, will take out of officecember 1. Both Captain Redding and Mr. McLeod are democrats, but obtained appointment from a Republican administration. Their appointments are regarded here as victory for the "Lily whites."

SMALL COLORED
VOTE A SURPRISE
The official count of the vote cast in the election for governor and other State officials on November 8th has been made public, and according to it all calculations of Democrats and Republicans—white and colored—were upset.
Governor-elect Trinkle received the largest minority ever given a candidate for that office in the history of the state. Col. Henry W. Anderson, a former Democrat, who was nominated as the candidate of the "Lily-white" Republicans, and who ran on a platform promising the elimination of the colored voter from Republican party politics, received 67,116 votes.
Mr. John Mitchell, Jr., who headed an independent ticket put up by colored Republicans received 5,230 votes in the state. 1,933 of which were cast in the third round. Mitchell's home congressional district cast for the colored ticket was 20,000 less than claimed and widely published by many colored papers in the state and elsewhere.
Likewise the showing made by the "Lily-white" Republican ticket was disappointing to their organization, headed by Congressman Sleup, State Chairman Crupper, Col. Anderson and others. It is general opinion that the party went too far in an effort to the white people of the State on the question. Had the race question left alone and the fight made on economic issues it is thought that the Republicans party would have made a much stronger presence.
There are nearly thirty thousand qualified colored voters in the State. As only 5,230 voted its colored ticket it is apparent that many remained away from the polls altogether, while many voted the Democratic ticket. It is not believed among colored leaders in the State that any considerable number of colored votes were cast for Col. Anderson.
African Cruise Starts December 12

The day ended with the men's social at night at which time the members of the Altar Guild served delicious suppers to the satisfaction of all present, from which they realized quite a nice sum which will go toward clothes and hangings for the chancel. Thanks to the good women for their splendid work and all who helped to make the affair a success. The day it opened up with a large attendance of the Sunday school, with every teacher in place. At the 11:00 a. m., service Holy Communion was celebrated to the confirmed men and boys. The solo by Mr. Lyman was appropriate and well rendered. This Sunday Holy Communion at 11:00 a. m. 'Evening prayer' was commenced at 6:00 p. m. Subject at nite: 'The Parable of the Virgin.'

LINCOLN JOHNSON FAILS OF
CONFIRMATION
Before it adjourned for the holidays last week the Federal Senate refused to confirm the nomination of Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committee man for Georgia, to be Recorder of Deceds for the District of Columbia. It is said that the nomination was voted upon adversely because of the opposition of the Democratic Senators for Georgia. We do not believe any such rot. The Republican majority turned down the nomination because Mr. Johnson has made himself offensive to them and to the members of the National Committee. He has been too undiplomatically outspoken to gain friends with the members of the Committee of the Senate.
As the National Committee has also deprived Mr. Johnson of all of the honor and influence of his membership it would appear that he has reached the end of his political career, which has been stormy from start to finish.
WE HAVE AN ASSISTANT TO THE
SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE
Announcement has been made of the appointment of Professor W. S. Scarborough to be Assistant to the Secretary of Agriculture. Dr. Scarborough is a former president of Wilberforce University, the author of a Greek text book and a treadstone on, "The Birds of Aristophanes." Presumably, what he does not know about agriculture would fill a big book in the English language. What he does not know about agriculture, however he may learn. We hope so. He is a fine scholar and a splendid gentleman, as smooth as velvet in his manners.
There is plenty of work for Dr. Scarborough to do. He can with profit to Negro farmers inquire at once into the reasons why Negro Demonstration agents receive less pay for the same work than white agents, the Negro agents receiving a maximum wage of $1,600 per annum and the white agents a maximum of $2,500, and why there is such radical inequality in the distribution of the Smith Lever funds, and other extension funds controlled by the Department of Agriculture, the fact being, it is alleged, that only so much of these money are allotted to the Negro work and benefit as to keep them in existence. Dr. Scarborough should look into these matters for us.
We now have three assistants, to Cabinet officers and we reasonably expect that they will assist the race to receive a fair consideration in the matters affecting them.
THE MOR SPIRIT DERANGES
BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY
When once the business men of the South get it into their heads that the mob spirit derogues business and industry, by creating a some of insecurity and consequent restlessness on the part of the people of a given community, we are sure they will get busy in an effort to promote the dominance of legal authority and the subordination of the mob spirit.
In a case before the court at Asheville, it was shown that two white women, arrested in a house where there were Negroes, and who were placed under bonds, and who left the place where the alleged offense occurred, were apprehended by unauthorized persons, it was brought out being members of the Klu Klux Klan. Judge Walter K. Brock, in character the jury, said: "If that woman has undertaken to be more powerful than the government under will have been taken away and should be stopped by the police." Further, "I am convinced in the South that such a spirit in the city, that he had does, would the police have ainue to dominate and terrorize a large part of the citizenship and be lawful authority into contempt." We think not.
Normal conditions of prosperity in industrialism and business depend entirely upon the supremacy of law and law enforcement, which are directly opposites of supremacy, or prevalence of the mob spirit and rule. The mob spirit cannot be tolerated without deranging the industrial and business interests of the community. That is plain enough.
PREPARE TO GO TO HIGHER HEIGHTS
The story is told of a New York banker who was asked why he did not promote the Negro messengers and other like employees in his service. He made the following answer: "I have no race prejudice in the context of my business. Preparedness
and honesty are all I require in the employee. I noticed that the Irish and other white employees in subordinate positions were always anxious for promotion and worked for it, while the Negro employees did not appear to care about promotion. They seemed to be satisfied in the minor positions given them. I decided to try out three new employees. I selected a young Jew, a young Irishman and a young Negro. I gave them all messenger jobs. I gave them the same salary and allowed them the same opportunity. I noticed the young men closely. The young Negro seldom read anything when at leisure, and seemed tired and indifferent most of the time, and, after a short while, began to ask for an advance of wages on pay day, saying he had some unusual obligation to meet. I always accommodated him.
"On the other hand, the Jew and the Irishman were intensely interested in the work of the bank. They were on the job early and late. When they were not employed they were reading bank literature. Instead of asking an advance on their wages they opened an account with my bank and deposited a part of their wages each week. On inquiry I found that both of them were attending the night courses of a Business school, while the young Negro spent his night hours in social engagements and pleasures.
"At the end of six months there were three clerical vacancies in my bank. I had the three young men examined for the positions. The Jew and Frishman passed with flying colors and I had to go outside to get the third clerk. The Jew and Frishman are now members of our banking corporation while the Negro is still a messenger."
This is a true story, and happened in New York not a thousand years ago.
Now, the readers of the JOURNAL AND GUIDE who read the story of the promotion of Mr. J. S. Jones so be active vice-president of the Tidewater Bank and Trust Company, and of Mr. Edward A. Baker to succeed him as secretary-treasurer, published in the JOURNAL AND GUIDE of November 19, will see that they earned their promotion by doing just as the Jew and Irishman did in the New York banking house. They mastered the details of the business they had in hand from the very beginning of their employment and always strove to be prepared to take the place above them.
when the promotions were to be made.
Young people who are employed in subordinate positions should be conscious always that the eyes of their employers are upon them. The hours they spend in social pastimes or criminal frivolities, to the neglect of their work, and preparation in it to be most useful, have a tab kept upon them. If they don't grow in knowledge and expertise and reliability in the small position they need not expect promotion, larger salary and bigger opportunity for usefulness.
The safe way is always to prepare to go to higher heights. If you never go you will be all the safer in the place you do occupy.
WHY DO OUR HOTEL ENTERPRISES FAIL?
One of the problems which confront every Afro-American in visiting other places is that of a stopping place. He usually does not know where, he will be able to find lodgings until he has found them. In so large a place as New York City the problem is just the same as it is in the small town. Only a short time ago Rose's Hotel in the heart of Harlem, and one of the most pretentious ventures we have had of the kind in New York City, was sold to the city and turned into a police station. The proprietor couldn't make it pay. A big hotel venture in Philadelphia, which has not been doing business long enough to demonstrate if it could pay, is said to be in the hands of the sheriff.
Washington, where, if anywhere, we should be able to maintain first class hotels sufficient to meet the requirements of the traveling and local trade, it has only been a very short time such a hotel has been opened and opened. We all hope that if any new one exists, but none of us can be with it will be, the great lobby will be with us when we come.

A NEW COLONIZATION SCHEME
In the JOURNAL AND GUIDE of November 19, we published an article, entitled, "A Negro State for Lower California," in which it is stated that a group of enterprise Afro-Americans, calling themselves, "The Lower California Mexican Land and Development Company," has acquired title to a tract said to comprise some 21,300 acres of excellent land the expectation being that it will be taken over and developed by members of the race. The land is located near Encenada, and the hope is that a State may grow out of the settlement.
The growth of a Negro State in any State of the United States will always be a problem more or less difficult.
NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
ficult of consummation. The growth of a great unified Negro community is always possible and desirable, where the conditions will allow of it, and where the constituted authorities of the State are such as will guarantee adequate protection to life and property, as a matter of course and without the asking. That condition is not always to be obtained in any of the States singled out at random. Without such guarantee no such community can develop with any degree of assurance that the race character of it may not invite invasion by lawless gangs of white neighbors.
The Mound Bayon community, in Mississippi, is a striking demonstration that such communities can be developed along healthy lines of proper administration as segregated and self-sufficient body of people. There are some 1,200 persons in the community, and they conduct all of its business, including railroad station, telephone and telegraph, post office, and the like, with banks and factories and stores, all controlled by our race group. White persons come and go mostly on business or matter of curiosity, but none live or tarry there. There must be a farming population of some 25,000 in social and business touch with Mound Bayon.
We rather favor the development of such communities. They afford us all of the opportunities we need for social, political and economic growth and independence, and they show us what the race can do as such community life, and it is of more importance to show us than to show skeptical white persons, who have little faith in us anyhow. Settlements of that sort within the United States are more to be commended than such outside of it. The greater opportunities are in the United States, and it is for us to make the most of them, here.
Letters From The People
Editor JOURNAL AND GUIDE:
Sir—In the Sunday Virginian Pilot
we have a "Feature Writer," who confines his subjects mostly to Negroes,
of which he has included a feature stories entitled "Adventures of Allentown." He makes a brazen attempt to write Negro diadect, but to most of his readers, he is a sati sad failure.
To date we have no record of any writer who successfully wrote, "Negro Diadect," except the Hon. Paul Laurence Dunbar and he was truly colorized.
If the writer would confine his literary work to Negroes he would do well to read a few books by Negro authors, such as the Progressive Era, by Kelly Miller, "The Life and Times of Booker T. Washington," by B. F. Riley, Darkwater, by W. E, DuBois and from Slavery, by Booker Washington then he might have some iden what to write.
Negro Diadect belongs to Negroes, and it takes Negroes to write it.
Then why should it be such a crime for uneducated Negroes to speak English of their own make. The poorest English spoken is spoken in England by Englishmen. The Jordias of North England, the Cormishmen of the south And the Corkneys of London, speak worse than the Ogeeches of Georgia. Thousands of our Anglo-American brothers use a language in translation but we must be perfect. Maybe we can be surprised to know that Negroes and Jews, as a whole, are the greatest linguists and impersonators on earth, he relates an instance where there was a snow ball contest given in Allentown and music furnished by the Exelssiord hand, the ball contest ended in a brick battle, the handsmen, beat a hasty retreat with broken arms and fractured skulls. It is the members and fractured skulls of other races to flatten the Negro's music and religion when they want a favor of him.
When some would be humorist wishes to gain fame for himself he seeks to ridicule Negro music so after all there must be something about it that they envy. The Excelior band went to Abentown a few years ago, and came back to Queen St., running as he tells his story. But the same band went to Boston and came back with first prize a few months ago. If our worthy critic has a Bible, and if his Bible is a Christian Bible, and if he is a Bible student, it is reasonable to suppose that he knows that king David was the greatest musician of his day. Then if he is acquainted with Egyptian, Arabian and Abyssinian history he is aware of the fact that King David's music teachers were men, black men from the banks of the Nile the country now known as London. If he is viewed in Roman history, he will be thirsty when he is on the road to Rome. If he is viewed in Indian history, he will be thirsty when he is on the road to Delhi. If he is viewed in African history, he will be thirsty for years if he was held by the Savannah to be the work of a supernatural power this and much more is the work of the ancestors of the inhabitants of Abentown where they go for adventure.

To Test Constitutionality California Alien Land Act
(The Associated Negro Press)
San Francisco, Calif.—A special court composed of three Federal Judges one from the Circuit Court ofAppeals and two from district Alien Land Act would then bind the two applications for injunctions restraining the State and county officials from interfering with the letting of four-year crop contracts to Japanese in Los Angeles and Santa Clara counties.
It is charged that the California Alien Land Act would be violated by the contracts and the proceeding and a test of constitutionally the law.

We are beginning to look about and decide what we shall get for the children at Christmas. If they like books I believe there is nothing they will enjoy more than "The Upward Path." The compilers of this book brought together stories and biographies, bits of travel and short essays, poems and folk tales and list of all charming people in this single volume is a record of Negro literary achievements. And while the book is for children everyone who likes to read will be entertained by it.
"I have received The Upward Path", a friend said to me the other day", and have finished the first story over which I confess I cried. This opening story of "Boy and the Bayonet" is the gem among the short stories, but it has good seconds. There is a football tale by Walter F. White entitled "Victory, two school-day stories by Lillian B. Witten, and one of the most charming stories by Angela Grimke's "Land of Daughter" from her play, "Rachel".
We all like to read of the brave deeds of other men, and the colored child must feel a peculiar thrill when or she learns of the great colored soldiers and explorers. As Matthew Henson journeys with Peary to the North Pole, we learn that they took no measurement of the distance over they came. "With my proven ability in gaining distances, Commander Peary was ready to take the reckoning as I made it and he did not reorder or observe his wills were within a miles grasp of the Pole." And what a wonderful thing to have the black man and the white man together at the spot where the American flag first was set marking the location of the North Pole!
One of the great African explorers of our time is the Rev. William Henry Sheppard. Mr. Sheppard went to Africa as a missionary from the Presbyterian Church and was instrumental in exposing the Congo Atrocities. He was also a pioneer in the nature of the Belgian Government and came near losing his life. His story of his journeys in the Congo was printed by the Presbyterian Missionary Society and might have been lost to the masses of colored readers but it not been for the "Upward Path" where his wonderful description of the Congo now given prominence. One learns that in this forbidden land of Lukenga, guarded against outside influence, there was a kindly, im
government that encouraged handicraft, cleanliness and moral living. Mr. Sheppard's story also of animal life in Africa is in the "Upward and Downward" book, a good idea of what the traveller may expect who goes into equatorial Africa. Amorig the biographies is a sketch of Benjamin Banneker and another of Paul Cuffee; the first admired by President Jefferson, the second a friend of Madison. "There were in these days," and it is good to rend of these figures in American Negro History. The book abounds in good poetry suitable for recitation at public gatherings. There is a little poem by Cordelia Ray of the Months which would make a pretty recitation for African, each costumed to represent a month and each reciting her verse.
The book has one delightful bit of faure, "Travels with a Georgia Mule" by James Weldon Johnson, whose serious work in his two great poems, "Fifty Years," and "Black and Unknown Bards", are also in the book. But you must handle "The Upward Path" to appreciate it and to see the charming Illustrations by Laura Wheeler that make this collection a lovely gift book for any child Again, do not forget it for Christmas.

In the life time of many people now living the world has undergone marvelous changes. These changes have affected nearly all races and nations, and has challenged the admiration of men and angels. From a casual observation one has been able to see such changes in every manner of human activity. Many of th inventions of the world have come into use within this period. Many of these inventions have necessitated a constant reconstruction of the methods of life and have affected the material, intellectual and spiritual Thought.
From a casual observation one has been able to see such changes in every realm of human nature. Many of the inventions of the world have come into use within this period. Many of these inventions have necessitated a permanent reconstruction of the methods of life and have affected things material, intellectual and spiritual. These changes of world construction have served to shift the population from the country to the cities at an ever accelerating rate. The improved methods of transportation have changed the commerce of the world, while telegraphy has brought all parts of the civilized world into close contact.
Here in our own United States has been a vast mingling of peoples from every part of the world. This has constantly tended to a broader understanding of national traits; and the general tendency seems to be toward a friendlier feeling among the different peoples. Japan has emerged from the darkness of heathenism, and has adopted modern methods in industry and education, with the result that it is now numbered among the great powers of the world, becoming a new strong center in the Far East, with which all the nations of the world belong in matters of diplomacy, war, and education and finance. Japan to a large extent, holds the key to the Far East.
It is interesting to think of China, with her hundreds of millions of population. China has a semi-awakening. Missionary movements have aroused this sleeping giant to the commercial intercourse, has made it well known in China to sleep longer. China is the greatest monarchy in the world, as no numbers, and is gradually becoming a republic. Her old order of things has been changed, and new orders are being considered and advanced. This insures, if China can be stabilized, the development of one of the great powers of nations on the face of the world. As the will bring into the new situation many conservative forces which are lacking in Russia and other places.
Along with the development and progress of things has come the Negro, numbering more than twelve million, interwoven into the lifeblood of this American people in a way that they must be considered as a known quantity in our national equations worthy of consideration. Freed from without money, without education and ignorance of his religious and political rights, he was an infant among the races of the world, but within the last fifty years of his profession his progress has been wonderful. The unprejudiced mind has but to think, and the eye to behold, and it may be conceded that with all of his hindernames, he is fast advancing to a place in the front ranks.
The results of the late war are such as no one dreamed of ten years ago. The issue of the war, was a material, barbarism versus the soul of civilization. When Germany made this issue she was wrong. And while she seemingly conquered all the sciences, in doing so she lost her capacity to understand the souls of men. Blinded by her own philosophies, she challenged the souls of men around the world. The rally the patriots to defeat the central power of the tribe to the spiritual vision of the nations alligned with the allies. It meant that more force was to be defeated by the who believed in a higher civilization.
The full meaning of the defeat of Germany and her allies will not be fully understood for a long time. The destruction of the Austrian Empire, the prop of the Pascase in Central Europe, opens many countries with teeming millions of peoples to a new and better civilization. The defeat of Germany marks the end of an arrogant, autocratic materialism which threatened the whole world with a conscienceless material domination. Another far-reaching and altogether desirable change resulting

Great intellectual and economic changes along with religious changes, have occurred in every part of the world during this period. The Panal power has steadily weakened throughout the world; and will continue to do so until the present opportunities for enlightening the world are improved.
Noting the present status of the world, we must look not on things material, so much as on things that exist in the heart and mind of mankind. The most significant change occurring in the modern world is the complete reversal of the main current of world thought as to religious and civil affairs in the past, and that ages has been changed. The Dorma of popes, Sultans, Kaisers and all overlords, in both Church and state, that the common people are incompetent to determine their course, has been definitely cast aside for the doctrine, that whatever concerns humanity, must be appealed to humanity. This change is the method of approach to mankind, and of dealing with the vital affairs of life in its strength brought on the day of open diplomacy, and the light methods in religion and politics. As we look out upon the course of things about us, we are compelled to see that we are in the first hour of humanity's first day. But we must before the debits of the old order is removed, and the vital forces of new order can have full play. Franks in religion, and in the realm of cross-missionship may do what they will may to direct, but the great entrance of the enfranchisement of the enemy and the who fights against it, fights the swelling tides bearing on their bases the richest treasures of the Christian religion in its utmost reaches.
The net result of all these changes is a world situation big enough and at the same time extended by many perils. To safeguard the world, the church must behings of the Blessed Christ must be to it.

GIDEON NOTES
On Wednesday, Nov. 23rd at 4 p.m. we boarded the boat for Newport News enroute to Lightfoot, Virginia, where we were scheduled to hold our Semi-Annual Booster meeting of the Juvenile Department. The party consisted of Sir and Mrs. F. E. Puryear, Mrs. J. F. C. Ashburn, G. R.S. and Mrs. M. E. Miller, G. S.M. On arriving at our destination we were met by Sir Jones and Rev. McCray, and conveyed to the church where an appreciative audience awaited our coming. The members of Centerville Lodge No. 224 and children of Pride of Centerville Class No. 93 were out in a body. A most pleasing program was rendered by the children, consisting of recitations, and papers, after which the visitors entertained the audience with duets, readings and addresses, all of which was awarded our appreciation by the audience. Rev. McCray in his usual forceful manner extended a most hearty welcome to the visitors, which was accepted in like manner by the Supreme Serile. The program having ended, we were served a most tempting supper after which we were driven to our several homes. On Thanksgiving morning we arose refreshed, enjoyed a hearty breakfast at the home of Sister Laura Burgess, after which we were motored to the home of Sister Lula D. Jones, D. C., and mother of the Class, we were joined by Sir and Mrs. Puryear, and after socializing a while were driven to the Hall to hold our business meeting. This meeting was presided over by the Supervising Mother, and was a most helpful and enthusiastic affair. Many of the Juvenile children were present, and took an active part in the discussions. Reports from classes 9, 80, 86 and 93 were given by the workers, which reports showed a most healthy condition. The G. S. Mother brought greetings from the various classes throughout the jurisdiction, reporting
Personal Mention Fraternal Notes
that already two new classes had been established since the Grand Lodge, and that there was a steady increase in the membership despite the tight times. It was the concensus of opinion that we should put on a drive for 10 new classes and 500 new members by August 1922
Deputy and Mrs. G. E. B. Tabb, of Williamsburg were present, and all they have not a class in their lodge pledged themselves to get up one in a very short while. Sir F. E. Purure gave a most encouraging and helpful address, and remarks were made by Sirs, G. E. B. Tabb, Johnny Jones, S. Bradby, Mesdames C. M. Purure, J. F. C. Ashburn, A. C. Chandler, Mother of Class 80, Williamsburg, Va., L. D. Jones and many others. The meeting was a very imbilant affair from every point and the officers and members were jubilant over its success. At the close of the meeting we were driven back to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Johnny Jones and a most elaborate Thanksgiving dinner was served which was greatly enjoyed by all. Every delicacy of the season was served. At night we attended the Fair at Chichonham about eight miles from Lightfoot. Va. The entertainment was for the benefit of the school at this place. The patrons are certainly to be praised for the splendid three room school which they have built thrus cooperation, and the entertainment was for the purpose of securing suitable equipment for the various rooms. The teachers under the leadership of Mrs. Ellis as principal are laboring hard for the boys and girls under their care and their efforts are to be shown us. We all had an opportunity to speak of our work and received hearty response and many pleasures of support which we know will soon be realized for we have many prominent Cities in this neighborhood. We had the pleasure of renewing many old acquaintances in the persons of Sir, and Mrs. G. W. Jones, of Toona, Sir Robt. Wallace, Miss Fitzgerald, the Supervisor of the county and many others. We returned to car stopping place at a hour tired but pleased with our delightful visit. We were up early Friday morning, enjoyed a good old country breakfast and were then driven to the station. We feel to thank most cordially Mr. and Mrs. Jones, Mr. and Mrs. Bradby, Mrs. Laura Burgess, Rev. and Mrs. Ellis and Rev. McCreary for the manner in which they entertained us. To Rev. McCreary we were indebted for a number of autopsies, having placed his car at no disposal during our stay. The rest of this community are wideawake and alive to the opportunities. They for the most part very prosperous owning their homes and horses, mules, cows, hogs, chickens and turkeys in abundance. From the prosperous look of everything in and around their homes, we are compelled to say that there are no hard times at Lightfoot. Van. Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Purure were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Sally Bradby while in Lightfoot.

ST. JAMES A. M. E. CHURCH
SOUTH, NORFOLK
A large congregation greeted Dr. P. A. Scott in St. James Sunday morning, and he delivered a soul inspiring sermon from Rev. 7.9, subject, "The Heavenly Company." At its close four persons united with the church.
In the afternoon Dr. Scott proached at the Money Point Baptist church, Rev. J. H. Harris, pastor. The St. James choir sang, and many of the St. James officers and members were present also.
On account of the rain the attendance at night was small, but the pastor delivered a most instructive discourse on, "The Abiding Presence of the Angel of the Lord."
The Sunday school, under the management of Supt. J. E. Pulford, was very interesting, and was addressed by Dr. T. A. Wood.
The A. C. E. League led by Miss Rebecca James, was most impressive. The Art Club, with Miss Leona D. Edwards as teacher, is doing fine work each Monday evening from 4 to 6 o'clock, and the class is rapidly increasing in numbers.
At the Missionary roll call, by Miss Eva C. Archer, Sunday morning more than fifty persons responded with their monthly dues. The work at this church is all a gloomy with energy since the great reed which closed last week, and which has of the greatest, this church has ever had, will be several persons will be baptized in the morning, and the Lord's Supper will be administered at 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

MOVING PICTURE HOUSE DYNAMITED
St. Petersburg, Fla.—A moving picture theatre on Ninth St, for colored people was wrecked by two explosions of dynamite. A $1,600 mechanical player piano was reduced to splinters by one charge of dynamite. The white people in the neighborhood objected strenuously to the erection of the house several months ago and it is thought that some of the objectors are responsible for wrecking the building. Mayor Noel A. Mitchell, candidate in a coming mayoralty election says that the building was dynamited to frighten the colored people among whom he has a large following.

Dear is the grave where my child is
Sweet is the memory which shall never

Heart of my life is buried deep.
Under the sad where my daughter sleeps.
She will never be forgotten while in this

My heart has never been the same.
Since she was called away.
Miss and more each day we miss her.
Miss my thank you is beheld!
But they little know the sorrow that lies
in our hearts concealed.
A warm mothers eye a husband's broken

We stood by your bed dear daughter,
And saw your soil散.

NORFOLK JOURNAL AND GUIDE
Star Players on Both Teams
Payne, Carter, and Captain Fuller were Howard's forte. Doneghy, Howard's offensive star in all previous games was forced to retire in the first period because of injuries. Payne came into the spotlight more than once with brilliant plays. Carter, Howard's quarterback of last year, showed he had lost none of his success. Captain Fuller's work was steady and reliable.
For Lincoln, Captain Law, Purr, Coston, and Skinker were the individual stars. Law proved good both on the offense and defense. His football career at Lincoln ended with the playing of his greatest game. Parr and Soston were able assistants in the backfield, and Skinker and Williams played strong on the line.

Attucks A. C. Charges State Normal Unfair
The Attacks Athletic Club Foot Ball team of Norfolk, charges that in the game played with the State Normal School at Elizabeth City on Thanksgiving day unfairness was exhibited by the officials and players on the State Normal team. The Attacks team says that incompetent officials were selected and that they are palied in their attitude towards the players in their team. Unsportsmanlike conduct by the Elizabeth City players resulted in Whitehurst of Norfolk having his finger bitten by Warren of State Normal. A free for all light resulted. After this exhibition the Attacks team refused to play, thus forfeiting the game to State Normal.
Columbia Defeats Alpha A. C. 13-6
Johns E. S. Smith)
The fast, Columbia Football team of Norfolk, Va., capt. Willie Nash, and Mr. Hair, Va., coach (Coach) meet the strong Alpha Athletic Club eleven of Portsmouth, Va.,. Thanksgiving Day in a mighty stride for the football supremacy of Tidewater Virginia coming out with the big end of the score, 13 to 6. The game was replete with brilliant playing on the part of both teams, Boush of Columbia being the individual star of the game, Iron Man Thornton, the all star half back was in the game on both feet and with a dash and vim scoring long gains that added greatly to his team chances of victory. Red Billipls the premier end of Virginia is still going big and along with Thornton and Capt. Nash, quarter back, bid fair to make the all star Southern team at their respective positions.
Without a doubt the Columbians are the fastest and groomest working football machinery in Tidewater, Va., and have bid for the State Championship honors. Keep it up (Knocks) you are there with enough peppo to win—and with such a peppo coach as Capt. Harry Webb—you are bound to make the other fellows sit up and take notice.

State Normal Wins From Attucks A. C
Elizabeth City, N. C.—One of the best games of the season played here was the fast and snappy contest between the State Normal and the Norfolk Athletic, on Thanksgiving Day, when the crack State Normal team completely crushed the Norfolk players by a score of 21 to 0.
DRAGONS WIN
ANOTHER GAME
Lynchburg, Va., Nov. 24.—The Seminary Dragons, not yet recovered from last Saturday's game with West Virginia Institute, were not able to make but five touchdowns on the Storer team in the Thanksgiving contest here today. Captain Ivons, Clark and Coley were not up to their usual form because they had not fully recovered from injuries received in that game, and were compelled to give way early to other players. Clark suffered a discollected shoulder that will probably lay him up for some time.

Annual Football Classic Played On Field That Was Sea of Mud. Sensational Finish.
Philadelphia, Pa.—Before nearly ten thousand or more spectators in the National Leaue Park, Philadelphia, Pa., Thanksgiving Day, November 24th, 1921, the Howard machine, which throughout the season had remained victorious and unscored upon, fell before the Lincoln warriors in the Annual Football Classic of the year by a score of 11 to 7. On a field which was a variable sea of mud, the two teams plunged inside depth through the city's stadium under a constant douse of rain in the struggle to win the season's closing football event.
Following the touchdown by Law, Payne Howard's fallback, brought the receivers to their feet with a 18 yard run from the kickoff. Again Howard showed her progress by marching up the field to Lincoln's 1 yard line, making a number of first downs. Her rattle was begging her for a touchdown when seemed certain when a tackle by Lincoln forced rushing her back for 15 yards. The "Blue and White" was never able to overcome this handicap and lost the ball on downs after Payne had gathered it in neat forward pass. Lincoln kicked out of danger. Before the game was over, many forward passes were kicked by Lincoln but all failed. The game ended by Lincoln but a near center of the field, Lincoln at last defeating the Howard machine by a score of 13 to 7.
Morris Delights Queen St. Audience
Despite the torrential downpour last Sunday afternoon, Queen Street Baptist church was packed from pit to dome to listen to the rendition of a splendid program and to hear Charles Satchell Morris, Jr. The vast audience was a personal testimonial to genius and popularity and attested that he was more highly regarded by his fellow students than the Junior chair of 25 voices of both sexes furnished beautiful music for the event. "The Humming Boys Quartet," rendered Negro Spirituals, jubilees and plantation melodies. The Rev. Dr. P. D. Lee was the master of ceremonies. The speaker was presented by Prof. D. Dr. Moore who referred to him as "the foremerger of new day and the most widely known young Colored man in the World."
The pastor of the church, Rey, Dr. F. W. Williams responded to his address saying he was in "very truth chip off" the old block. That he had never enjoyed any address more than brilliant and masterly one just delivered. Pastor, church, citizens, all insisted that Morris must return and speak. He needed to revisit Queen Street on Saturday December 18th, when it is expected hundreds will be present to hear him. At night young Morris spoke to an immense audience in the Truxton Grammar School Auditorium.
This Saturday afternoon Mr. Morris will depart for Goldsboro, North Carolina when he addresses a mammoth mass meeting Sunday afternoon in the Anaconda Baptist church and again on Monday evening. He will speak also in Fayetteville, Wilson, Rocky Mount and Tardarburg during the remainder of the week. Returning to Norfolk on Saturday December 10, he will speak Sunday afternoon the 11th, at a colossal event in Newport News and on Sunday evening for the initial time to the Grove Baptist church of Churchland, of which Rev. Dr. A. D. Moore is the pastor.

Mayor, Vetoes Ordinance Forbidding Joint Worship of Races In Churches
(By The Associated News Press)
Atlanta, Ga.,—Mayor James L. Key has vetoed the ordinance passed by council last Monday forbidding the joint worship of whites and Negroes in Atlanta churches.
The mayor's veto message declared the ordinance "will and does invade that which is a matter of conscience with a great many people" and would cause a great deal more trouble and irritation than it would alay.
SEAMAN DECLARED INNOCENT
Boston.—Frank Howell, of Jacksonville, Florida, a seaman on the schooner, Lillian E. Kerr, was accused by his white captain, George Poppe, of assault with a knife. At his trial before a federal commissioner it was proven that Howell had no knife and made no effort to attack the captain.
