WORLD LIMITATION OF ARMAMENTS CONFERENCE MAKES RAPID PROGRESS President Harding Has Hopes of Association of Nations Out of Which May Develop an International Court. GAY SOCIAL LIFE IN WASHINGTON (The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C.—President Harding has seen the vision of an "Association of Nations," the thing he contended for, during the campaign of 1920. So remarkable, and peaceably satisfactory have been the developments of the Disarmament Conference that in one of his regular discussions newspaper correspondents, the President let his hopes and will be known. Chiina, therefore, has presented a new "Declaration of Independence," which has seemingly been so frank and fair, that all of the other nations, have had to, subscribe to the joke. China, then, enters, upon a new era of occidental progress. China, backed by the best traditions of the ancient civilization of Confucius, marches on to bigger and better things, drawing onto herself that which is best among the nations of the world, promising to a new example of potentialities and possibilities of a darker people. Japan, with that untelling face of the Sphinx, is demonstrating beautifully, how to contend for the things Japan may not be scraping of warships Japan may not be scraping of warships ber, or maintain the proportion that she thinks she should have, but Japan is tonious, mysterious, and visionary. Waters her smoke. One thing she must do the deference to Japan with the paternal tenderness with which the Powers are wont to consider China. There is positiveness and position in power. It is less obvious to be noted by our protégé. Respect not merely with numbers. China has practically ten times as many people as Japan, but Japan has POWER behind her numbers, and China is only slightly less powerful. It might not Colored Americans get from the nation, and the sections of the nations, had we more power? Like China, we have been sleeping; like China, we have not awake. Colored Americans have the social side of the Disarmament Conference has been one of the notable by-products of the Conference. There has never been a gayer social observation on this fact in Colored society in Washington, this famous in bywears years for its gorgeous formal events, has failed to catch the spirit of the times, socially. This is the case as a bad bogun to come in. Tom Watson, there are many ways to look at it. First, racial official life in Washington has been on the very low ebb for eight years, and the rising officeholders, the natural proponents of the political preference, will soon blossom like the rose. Then, again, the "sickleclub" of exchange, have developed a scarcity of manifestation, that gives pause to form a new form, former days. The folks have, become students of economy with a vengeance. They have seemed to voluntarily cast an eye the glitter of the specimen for the somber robes of the real. Captain Charles Lane, Librarian of Miner Normal Training School, where gather the embryonic teachers of this City of Magnificent Distances" to teach the fifteen direction to teach the young, how to told A. N. P. something. The Librarian stated that there has never been such a demand, for books, and on the subjects of Armament, Disarmament, Relief Relations, Economic Development, and thought making volumes, there has never previously been such a demand. The same fact holds true in other Libraries where our people are reading, it has been discovered upon inquiv, and in the conversations heard in the hotel lobbies, on the cars, and otherwise. This is food for thought. William Pickens In Interesting Letter to Atlanta Editors Shows Real Evil. (The Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga.—An interesting story lies behind the recent attempt of a local counselman named Sims to make a law for forbidding white and Colored people from ever, even worshipping at the same church, or attending the same schools, or preaching to or teaching each other. This was to prevent Northern visitors from speaking in Negro meeting places, and was chiefly inspired, by the fact that Governor Allen, of Kansas, a member of the N. A. A. C. P., had spoken to a mixed audience of white and Colored, where he was in Atlanta. The ordinance was passed, but Mayor Key was influenced by white preachers to veto, whereupon Counselman Sims, who introduced it, called the Mayor of Sims then shifted the attack from church to state, where northern whites teach, and specifically charged that white children (sons and daughters of white northern teachers) are being taught Clark University. The thing waxed hot in the dailies for a week, and the following is the contribution of the Contributing Editor of The A. N. P., who happened to be in Atlanta at the time: "To the Daily Papers of Atlanta, Ga Dear Editor: I have just made a special trip and a personal inspection and I am pre-merged to confirm the statements of Councilman J. the rogier, and are in the Negro schools here. I have been thru Clark University and all the old r Negro private schools, and are prepared to prove my case. And I want to ask the aid of Councilman Sims, and all other people, in making such a thing as I am prepared. Are we really interested in the future? Are we really interested in the future? Shall the blood of our white race sit side, by side with the blood of the Negro race in those schools? If I can be reached by any interested person for the present at 806 Sixteenth Street, Birmingham, Ala. "And if I needs me, I will prove it: That I found white writing in the Negro private school—BUT THEIR MOTHERS ARE COLORED This is the real evil. Can we not get an ordinance to combat it?

An Appeal to Fig. Issued by the Old Dominion This is the season when the need of waging a relentless warfare on the great white plague—tuberculosis—is emphasized in many ways. Evidences of the ravages of the dreadful disease manifest themselves more as cold weather sets in with all the suffering that winter brings to the afflicted, the poor and the needy. In order to raise funds to carry on the work of combating the disease that claims such a toll among the unfortunate sufferers from it the Virginia Tuberculosis Association is offering for sale everywhere within the confines of the commonwealth little stickers, appropriately engraved and printed and called "Christmas Seals." The proceeds from the sale of these little stickers will go towards carrying on the work of reducing the death rate from tuberculosis. In another column on this page there is an appeal from the Old Dominion Medical Society, directed especially to the colored citizens of the State, calling attention to the high death rate among colored people from tuberculosis and suggesting means for reducing it. To carry on the work requires funds, and one of the best ways yet devised for this purpose is the sale of Christmas Seals. It is an enterprise in which nearly every one may engage, as one penny will buy a Seal if one is not able to pay more. The appeal of the Medical Society is to every one to join heartily in the purchase of Seals that the amount raised in Norfolk and in the State may be as large as possible. It may be of interest to Norfolk's Colored citizens to know that seventy-five per cent of the funds raised by them will be used to aid local work, now carried on by the Anti-tuberculosis Association of the Community and Health Center. The remaining twenty-five per cent, will go to assist in providing beds for Norfolk cases at the Burkeville Sanatorium. In concise, understandable terms the Old Dominion Medical Society tells in its appeal WHY and HOW to fight tuberculosis. Every one cannot take a personal hand in giving relief to specific cases, but every one may strengthen the arms of the medical men, the nurses and laymen who are engaged directly in combating the disease by buying Seals liberally and thus furnishing the means for carrying on the work. An Appeal to Fight Tuberculosis Issued by the Old Dominion Medical Society More than one sixth of all the deaths among Negroes is due to Tuberculosis in one form or other. If the present high rate continues six years, the population will die from this disease. You or one of your family may become a victim. Virginia lost last year from Tuberculosis, 3235, the rate among Negroes, that of the white. The city of Norfolk lost 133 colored, 67 white. The colored population of the city is 45,000, white 75,000. The following are infected with Tuberculosis: (1) Tuberculosis is practically never inherited. (2) The germ comes from the sputum or secretion of some one infected with this disease, enterion, mouth, mouth and nose, infection coming in this way may be prevented. (3) An infected person early treated may nearly always be cured or the disease among the colored people is not due to physical inferiority, but to ignorance, indifference, intemperance, pov- Book And Magazine Review By Hortense Thompson The third installment of "Birthright" which is appearing serially in the Century Magazine, takes one on a surprising turn of events. Peter Siner, whose soul is burdened with dread the second time he met with Tump Pack in which Siner has nothing to win and everything to lose, is suddenly lifted from the depths of his heart and arrested for carrying concealed weapons and must pick cotton thirty days of white man who paid his fine. Or brighten his heart and decide to get married and go on. Cissie and the two find their homes welded together in the trust senses that Peter will decide to get married and go on. When Peter realizes that he must tell his mother for his engagement his mother falls for he knows his mother will be reconciled to his union with any girl. WHY FIGHT? erty, bad housing, bad hygiene, bad sanitation. (51) There is a growing decrease in the death rate of this disease. HOW FIGHT? Teach that lowered vitality invites Tuberculosis, Colds, insufficient food, insufficient exercise and rest, overcrowded, badly ventilated rooms, eschewed, and the hand mids of Consumption. Every consumptive is a carrier and may infect hundreds, especially the young. Right is eye cover, the doctor, Nurse, Ward, Lawyer, Utility pity. No one may escape responsibility. The Little Christmas Seal is potential in this fight. By it you can suspect that suspected persons may be examined and treated. By the Christmas Seal nurses are sent into many homes, giving instruction how to prevent Tuberculosis, and being instrumental in the reduction of this disease. Will you not buy Seals and do your bit to reduce the great White Hague that is working such people as the colored people of the Nation. takes him a long time to pull himself together. He is more understandable o his colored neighbors as a result of the lack of intellect of this period Captain Renfew senses for him; Captain Renfew, the only white man who has spoken to him as one man to another since his conversation with the white salesmen on the train in the North. Mr. Stribling writes with unusual human understanding. It is impossible to show the depth of feeling that he convoys. One must read for himself. By all means keep up with Peter Siner in "Birthright". Legal Hints BY V. C. HÖDGE Attorney-at-Law Q. I am renting a house from a man by a month and I want to move. How many days do I have to give my landlord before moving? A. Being a tenant from month to month, you should give your landlord a notice of your intention to move P. R. S. Q. I repaired an automobile for a man and he came in in the other day but the other day but said he was not able to pay me my money. A. If he will pay me if I let him have the car and I want to know if I have a right to hold the car in your possession you are paid because you have required that the owner's request and you therefore have a lien on it for your money. Q. My tenant is nearly two months behind in his rent and I want to vacate the premises because I want to take the property to some one else. How much I go about it? A.

Russell] Around the Conference of Limitation of Armamenta 447 Washington, the white, the brown man, but no black man. By common consent the black man is barred from participation in the Conference that is attempting to offer peace by world limitation of armaments, a glorification and benefits object which the writer hopes and prays for merely by realized. World Peace is not an iridescent dream crumb minded as believe, but an actuality within our reach, if men only let principles and practices of our blessed Lord and Savior. world limitation of armaments, a glorious and beneficent object, and one which the warriors hopes and pray fervently will be realized. World Peace is not an interdiscourt dream as the cynical minded would have as believe, but an actually, with our much read will only let the principles and practices of our blessed Lord and Sovereign prevail in stead or being dominated by their own selfish policies and plans. But why bar the black man from a World Conference? Why no repatriation around the conference table is it because the black races are not recorded as factors in world progress? Why not when the world was young a black civilization flourished along the banks of the Nile. For a thousand years, the Nile was burned brightly on the banks of the Nile while all the reef of the world was in darkness? Herodotus relates that black or Ethiopian Kings reigned over Europe. In recent times historians have attempted to discredit this statement by claiming that Herodotus had things they accept his statements. The accepted history text in use in most of our high schools and institutes is the statement: "That the Negro race has never been beers of wood and drawers of water for superior races" and this monstrous perversion of facts is what can be expected of a race whose youth are taught that they have ever been "hewers of wood" for superior woodworking and lack of race consciousness. All incarnated. The Hack man is not at the Conference Table because he is not as clever as down, but that he may always be so is proved by inflexible reasoning. The Joint Egyptian Expedition of Boston Museum of Fine Arts, which has made excavations at Napata, now led Gebel Barkala, on the south bank of the Nile has discovered and documented twenty-five queens of Ethiopia from 650 to 250 B.C. a period of 400 years. Included in the number is Tirtaqua, the Ethiopian King, mentioned in Monarchs Monarchs who reigned over Egypt. The recovery of the material in these tombs and writings show an advanced state of civilization and the ability to write the history of Ethiopia. The findings verify the statement of Herodotus and also supply information about a black group of rulers and emperors who named had been lost to civilization. Surely "God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform," that at the very time the future of black people will be lowered by ebbs these astonishing and quenching coveries should be made. "Ethiopia shall stretch flesh again her hands Uno God." I quote this passage because I signify that pressure a new development of our people. The war has forever changed the status of colored races. No more will their conditions be quite the same as those of white race the Negro, too, is feeling the force of new impulses and conditions. No longer is the color of a man's skin or the kink of his hair the primary reality. The world is not asking that now. It wants to know, what is your knowledge and what can you do? have been praying for the day would be the criterion of judgement, now we are coming into that day. The question for each man and woman of our race to consider is, Am I going to resurgent that is now going on and, let me reconsider, in the race. Only the life can survive. This is true of nations as well as individuals. The shores of the waters of man are worn with the wrecks of nature. We must assume the fullest advantage of this new day the Negro must show him self fit as a man, a citizen and a memorial. We must assume all the responsibilities of the fullest grown man. He must be religious, have high moral priples, be bravely, honest, God-fearing and use every cilor to become good people and use members of society. We should pay our taxes, educate our children, take interest in community, be loyal to our state and country, be loyal to our homes and in every community in which we live endeavor to become an asset rather than a liability. In this way we can make a larger life and enjoy the fruits of the greater opportunity opening to us. We must show ourselves worthy. As we must show ourselves worthy for no special favors or opportunities, we must show ourselves only an equal chance and an equal opportunity to educate our children, rear our families and make a livelihood. We must show our social equality; but we do want social equality. We do want recognition of the fact that we are citizens of a common country and its privileges, opportunities should be common to all. To our people we say, if you desire the utmost in recognition of these principles we must show ourselves using this most important our own hands. In exact proportion we now show capability, integrity and good sense in that proportion we shall receive at the hands of the world.

As children, she is not afraid of children that are never to be: "My children! my children! I shall never see you—now. Your little, brown, your bodies, shall never see your dimpled eyes, your tears, your your eyes—the beautiful, lovely feel of your love. (Beats her hands against her heart.) Never—never—never you are you are somewhere—and wherever you are, of you! Every bit of you! Even God can't take you away. Little children! My little children. No more come to me—weeping—weeping. You may be happy now—you are safe." The play is a beautiful piece of art and we hope will mark the beginning of a series of great dramatic works that Mego critics have declared it too powerful. This is be true or not it is unfortunate that a work of art should be judged from the viewpoint of propaganda. The Negro to-day is unfortunate at periods in his development work, but he is now written about him over-sensitively. Thus the Emperor Jones has been severely criticized because its hero has committed murder and throughout the play dismembered his wife, and the spare had been thus shackled by the critics of his time and had been unable to portray the character of Macbeth. But if Rachael seems too young, she has found it a noble piece of prognanda among the whites. Its central importance is life-like and infinitely an ure is life-like and infinitely an- aging. It has made its readers think and that after all is the most important thing that a book can do.

There must be a extraordinary effort put forth immediately to hold the Missouri Negro in the Rural district where he is most needed and from the standpoint of health and financial independence. Another great advantage of the Negro's living in rural districts is that he fails to come to grips with the problems of white citizens and thus avoids much friction that is found in larger towns in rural areas.

Tidewater Teachers' Association at Suffolk The Tidewater Teachers Association hold its semi-annual meeting at Suffolk, Nov. 25, 1921. An ad hoc meeting was held on the "Teacher's M. C. Cohoon of Suffolk and a response by Prof. J. S. Lee of Newport News. The principal addresses were Mr. G. Mandell on the "Teacher's Indifference to Teacher's Meeting and Some Remedies" and Prof. W. J. Clarke of U. V. U. who on "Spokesperson Virginia Colored Teachers". Both addresses were highly instructive and well received. The Executive Board made two requests: 1. That the State Legislature be petitioned to maintain a school of college grade for the training of teachers in Virginia High Schools. 2. That the State Legislature be petitioned to enact a compulsory Educational Law that will be enforced throughout the State. These recommendations to the teachers especially since Dr. Gandry's address showed that indifference to meetings often arose from narrowly satisfied teacher being narrowly satisfied and unfavorable to progressive methods. Prof. Clarke's address answered the question of rank of the certificates of teachers in the Exxon Corporation for by Va. Union University iv which classes may be formed in the university.
