N. A. A. C. P. MAKES EXPOSE ```markdown ``` VOL.I, NO.49 DR. W. G. PARKS OF PHILA., PA., NOTED BAPTIST, IS DEAD Had Just Returned Home from Nation Baptist Convention In St. Louis. WAS STRONG CONTENDER FOR PRESIDENCY Believed Disappointment And Long Trip Responsible for His Death. Philadelphia, Dec. 23—Following close after the adjournment of the Forty-second Annual session of the National Baptist Convention which closed here last Monday night, word was received in St. Louis Thursday of the death of Dr. W. G. Parks, who, it is said dropped dead at his home Wednesday shortly after his return from St. Louis where he attended the Baptist Convention. The news of the death of Dr. Parks comes as a great surprise to the Baptists throughout the country, as he was nationally known because of his official connection with the Church. He was Vice President of the National Baptist Convention for 12 years, and was President since September 5th following the death of Dr. E. C. Morris. Many regarded him as being the logical successor of Dr. Morris. He was a strong contender for the Presidency during the recent Convention and was defeated by Dr. L. K. Williams of Chicago by only 30 votes. It was generally believed that the strain caused by the disappointment together with the long trip affected him greatly. Dr. Parks left St. Louis last Monday night after a busy Sunday, during which he preached two sermons one at Central Baptist at 11 o'clock and at the Tabernacle Baptist in the evening. He seemed to be in high spirit throughout the day. He was 68 years old. Convention Closes Nothing occurred during the Forty-second session of the National Baptist Convention which was held at the Kings Theatre last week to mar the business or pleasure of the many delegates and visitors. Dr. L. K. Williams of Chicago was chosen president to succeed the late Dr. E. C. Morris who died last September. Dr. W. G. Parks of Philadelphia was a strong contender for the honor having received 760 votes while Dr. Williams the successful candidate received 790 votes. Dr. G. Taylor of Louisiana was elected Vice President and R. B. Hudson secretary, and all the old officers. The next session will be held at Los Angeles, California. Proposal Made To Investigate Klan Resolution Introduced by Representative Ryan; Declared Klan Un-American Washington, Dec. 23.—Investigation of the Ku Klux Klan activities by a house committee which would be directed to "recommend if necessary the proper disciplinary action," was proposed in a resolution introduced here by Representative Ryan, Republican, New York. The resolution also called for an examination of the financial condition of the organization "in order that just and proper returns to be filed with the collectors of internal revenue" and provided that all such organizations must file with the Postmaster General semi-annually the names and addresses of officers and members. It was declared in the resolution that the Klan was "un-American" that it had it had expended "large sums for the building of palaces" and had issued "propaganda of religious bigotry and racial hatred." Mrs. Ethel Green, has returned to the city from Peoria, Ill., where she spent a few weeks with her husband and relatives. THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN Burns Asserts Reds Plan to Overthrow U. S. Gov. Heo $6,000,000 Proposed Bond Issue Paint Paul, Minnesota Editor Walter H. Chesnutt attended the banquet given by the City Council last Thursday evening at the St. Paul Athletic Club at which the proposed $6,000,000 bond issue for the city and county improvements was discussed.

Adams of The Appeal, members of our group were also present. Mr. O. Howell, president of the Business League, though invited, was unable to attend on account of the League meeting. Business League Plans Activities Business League Plans Activities Plans for Raising Funds for Lifting Mortgage on Crispus Attucks Home Under Way The St. Paul Negro Business League at a meeting held last Thursday evening at Union Hall decided to give some kind of public entertainment in the near future for the benefit of Crispus Attucks Home, 409 Collins St. The nature of the affair is yet to be decided by the Entertainment Committee of which Dr. J. R. French is chairman. At present the Crispus Attucks is under a heavy mortgage and any effort put forth by the business men of the city should be successful in carrying their purpose. Although the nature of the affair to be given has not been decided by the Entertainment Committee, Dr. French has indicated that it will be held either at the city Auditorium or (Continued on Supplement 2) Mrs. Pearl Norris Dies of Injuries Girl Succumbs to Injuries Received in Elevator at Minneapolis Athletic Club.

Mrs. Norris is survived by a sister, Miss Mary Cecile of Chicago and a brother in Minneapolis. Claims Reds Are Behind a Concerted Movement Among Negroes and Union. Washington, Dec. 23.—The Communists' internationale, with headquarters at Moscow, Russia, is directing a widespread campaign in the United States for overthrow of the American government and its deliverance into the hands of the radicals, says William J. Burns, head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Direct statements to this effect were made by Burns before secret sessions of the House appropriations committee and were revealed today in printed transcripts of the hearings. Burns asserted that documents obtained by his bureau the last year "clearly indicate" that the Commun- ST.

Its spirit is the lamp which lights to higher life; its influence largely supports civilization and prevents a lapse in barbarity. Christmas spirit means Christian spirit. In testing its effect, one has only to reflect upon the positions of races, the most advanced being those of Christendom. China, the oldest entity among peoples, has an admirable occasion upon which the citizens strive to liquidate all their debts. It is a national pay-up day, and in spirit somewhat resembles our Christmas. In Japan they have an annual event somewhat like our New Year's celebration, during which the people go about expressing good will and promoting good cheer. But Christmas has a more elevating effect than either, in that it not only typifies peace and good will, but carries the essence of unselfishness and pure love, the most common expression being the bestowal of gifts. When the Christmas influence gains to the point that its spirit shall permeate the affairs of every day in the year, the millennium will have arrived. We have this day, and if we mar not its ideal its leaven will produce other days of the kind. In the making of a newspaper we have an opportunity to view the many forces operating upon the character of humanity. We see the good and bad, the sincere and insincere, the selfish and unselfish. We believe the leaven of good is more active than that of the opposed forces. If we have been able to assist the right, much has been due to your co-operation and we earnestly solicit a continuation of the same. Our Christmas greeting to you is one of optimism, good cheer and hearty good wishes. (Negro in Drug Raid Arrested in Duluth) Duluth, Dec. 23.—Twin Ports police arrested thriteen men today in a series of drug raids. Eight arrests were made in Superior, Wis. and five in Duluth. Walter Murray, colored, arrested in Duluth in one of the raids, is being held for Federal authorities on a charge of possessing narcotic drugs. He is said by police to have been arrested in Minneapolis about a year ago. s Reds Plan ow U. S. Gov. ist Internationale is behind a concerted movement "among Nebroes, labor unions and various social organizations and women's clubs, the ultimate purpose being to undermine these organizations with a view of overthrowing the United States government and establishing the dictatorship of the proletariat." A raid several months ago on a Communist meeting at Bridgeman, Mich., where seventy-five arrests were made resulted, Burns said, in discovery of a well-organized plot for radical agents to get into the army and navy so they could bore from within." The Bridgeman meeting, Burns said, was largely for the purpose of putting youthful Reds through an examination to see whether they would pass the army and navy examination. THE PUBLISHERS.

J. A. Myers former pastor of Zion Baptist Church, Minneapolis, from which he recently resigned, has been called officially by the Congregation of Memorial Baptist church. Since leaving Zion, Rev. Myers has preached at Memorial on several occasions making quite an impression. He has been warmly received by the church. Already plans are being made for an active year at the church. Colored Students To Be Segregated Action Taken on Recommendation of the Instruction Committee Over Objections Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 23.—The Indianapolis board of school commissioners voted unanimously last Tuesday night for establishment of a separate high school for Colored pupils, who are now scattered among the present high schools. The action was taken on recommendation of the instruction committee and over the objection of Colored residents who attended the meeting. The probable location of the school which is to be new, modern and well equipped, will be at the old county workhouse grounds, Northwestern avenue and Twenty-first street. Delegates from various Colored organizations protested vigorously against segregation. Dr. A. J. King, charged that "insidious forces" were behind the move for segregation, asserting that these forces "have spread to your Chamber of Commerce." The Rev. H. L. Herod, said that the Colored citizens are not especially concerned about the high school, but are vitally interested in knowing how far the matter of segregation will be carried. "Will the advocates of segregation want 'Jim-Crow' cars next?" he demanded. Dr. King, speaking in behalf of the Better Indianapolis League, asked if the proposed school would provide for each of the three courses that were now provided for in Shortridge, Manual, and Technical. He offered statistics to prove that not a single city in the country had ben able to provide funds for the equal maintenance of separate schools and it was always the Colored schools that suffered. Revs. Herod, Berry, Atty. Bailey, and others made strong speeches against the proposal. SOUTHERN FARMERS PLANNING CONFERENCE Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Dec. 23. Extensive and elaborate plans for the thirty-second annual Tuskegee Negro Conference are being made by Dr. Robert R. Moton and the staff of workers of the Institute. The conference will be held January 17 and 18 and will comprise many features of interest to farmers and rural workers. Hope for Dyer Bill, Harding Says in Letter Harding Says He Still Hopes Something Will Be Done for Dyer Bill. Washington, D. C., Dec. 23. President Harding still hopes to do something for the Dyer Bill, according to the following letter sent to William Monroe Trotter, of Boston, by George B. Christian, secretary to the President. The letter reads: "I have before me your message of December first, to the President, As you know, the President has made every effort possible in behalf of this measure. Its present status is not a promising one, but it is still hoped that something may be accomplished along this line in the near future." PRICE, 5 CENTS FAILURE OF DYER BILL IS LAID TO PERRY W. HOWARD FAILURE OF DYER BILL IS LAID TO PERRY W. HOWARD Activity of Perry W. Howard to Defeat the Dyer Bill Made Public. CLAIMS ASSOCIATION A POLITICAL BOLSHEVIST Urges Party Leaders to do Nothing for N. A. A. C. P. Or Its Sympathizers New York, Dec. 23—(Special)—Astounding revelation of the activity of Perry W. Howard in an effort to defeat the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was made today at the office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which made public the text of a letter written by Mr. Howard to Senator T. Coleman Du Pont of Delaware. This letter was dated November 23, 1922. just three days after the opening of the Special session and at the time when every effort was being made to have the bill brought up and pushed. In this letter, Mr. Howard declares he has "blood in his eyes" for the N. A. A. C. P., which he calls a "Negro Democratic Organization" and insists that no legislation out to be enacted by reason of the N. A. A. C. P., or its sympathizers. Mr. Howard's letter is in part as follows: The Letter "I confess to you that I have blood in my eyes for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and others who have used them with sinister designs to defeat some of the best friends that we have in particular and the Nation in general. The purpose of this letter is to call attention of you and other outstanding statesmen to the fact that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is purely a Negro Democratic organization and has always been found on the side of the Democrats in the final analysis. This organization was used by Bob Nelson and others and you owe your defeat to no other agency. I corrected the evil in Wilmington and if I could have gone into the Dovor neighborhood on the following Monday, I could have saved the day, but I had an engagement to fill for Senator Frelinghuysen and you know it was impossible for me to do so. "Now I may call attention to the fact that whatever legislation or whatever else is done for the Colored people of this country ought certainly to be done and done promptly, but I insist that none of it ought to be done through or by reason of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or any of its sympathizers. "I therefore think that it should be the policy of the leaders of the party like you to absolutely ignore and give the back of your hand to such men as Nelson, James Weldon, Johnson, W. F. B. DuBois, Robert L. Vann, of Pittsburgh and others of their ilk. There should be no quarters, and while treating every colored man with fairness and looking well into the interests of our group, these political bolshevists should be annihilated as the basest of ingrates. (Signed) PERRY W. HOWARD" In Mr. Howard's letter to Senator Du Pont, it was stated that copies were being sent to Senators Frelinghuysen, McCormick, Watson and Moses, also to Attorney General Daugherty, who it is to be presumed would be interested in the charge by Mr. Howard that Messrs. Nelson, Du Bols, James Weldon Johnson and Vann are "political bolshevists." Copies of Mr. Howard's letter were furthermore sent to Charles Adams, Chairman of the Republican National Committee and were circulated among prominent Republican Senators.

Any attempt to bring Negroes together into any organization for their benefit is undisputably a hard and difficult job, especially so in Minneapolis. From one end of the city to the other end, the cry is we must get together. And the cry ends the effort. There's no results. If Minneapolis Negroes would organize, someone must step from the ranks and lead the movement. Time, money and energy are the necessary requisites to the successful realization of any effort to organize any group of people. These things are necessary to create enthusiasm upon which to build an organization. If Minneapolis wants some kind of civic or business organization there must be a concentration of efforts to create interest and less of that "Let's do something.

Season's Greetings PORTERS AND WAITERS CLUB 18 South Third Street Unless the people of our group come to a realization of the place and power of economic features in this life, and begin to play their part in the general scheme, they must expect to become virtual slaves. How long will the masses and the classes continue to spend their money in places where they are not wanted? How long will individuals place their selfish desires for adornment of which they may foolishly boast, or for the distinction of having made a purchase where few other members of the race may be seen, above the general welfare of the whole race? There are many places of business in this and other cities where colored people dwell in large numbers, where they may buy some things from the open shelves, but may not enjoy the privileges of the lunch counters, cafes and soda fountains. There are other places where our people spend large sums of money yet never read one single word of appeal directed to them in the pages of their own papers and periodicals. It would be a serious condition were the colored people to become divided into classes and masses, as is being fostered and developed by the certain shrew and dominant interests in this country. We are interested in every form of inter-racial good will, but we look with care at any brand of salve or soft soap which seeks to maintain the systems of peonage and wage slavery operating against colored people. Exactly as in the days of slavery, we believe in those people who back up their moral protests and friendly assertions by acts which improve the condition of the under dog. We have no faith in the man who deprecates our lowly position yet keeps his foot on our necks. Surely no one believes in the sincerity of men who take places on boards of directors of institutions for elevating the colored people, yet lose no opportunity to forge ever tighter the chains of legal inferiority by which they are bound. The time to hedge and overlook obvious enemies has past. The time to organize for racial self-respect and economic development is here. No member of the race is too poor or weak to be a factor this new movement. All you are required to do is to spend your money where it will benefit the greatest number of your people and not simply cater to your own love for selfish pleasure. If business finds that it pays to teach the people to "Buy in your neighborhood," surely this race will find that it pays to "Spend your money among your true friends."—Washington Eagle.

It falls his lot to swap punches with Kid Hamilton, who halls from Kansas City with a record that spells trouble for the St. Paul lad who has been beating his opponents without much trouble. Hamilton being the cleverest of the two is looked to give Hopkins some trouble in landing such punches that have been sending his opponents to dreamland. The go between Moejoe of St. Paul and David Wright of Minneapolis is likely to be a lively mix. Bear Cat of Minneapolis is impatiently waiting for the gong that brings he and Al Shelton together for that awful clash which will be hard to pick the winner. LOOK!
