COLORED WOMEN ARE REFUSING TO ACCEPT HOUSE SERVANT JOBS
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Birmingham, Ala., Dec. 30. — The white head of one of the labor employment bureaus here has recently lamented the fact that colored young women are filling positions in doctors, lawyers and other offices, together with positions in various business concerns that should be occupied by white girls.
He has stated that there are in this community more than 2000 such places being filled, and that if the colored girls were disposed, there would be a way to solve the house servant problem. This official states that colored young women are boycotting the house servant jobs.

(By The Associated Negro Press)
Augusta, Ga., Dec. 30.-General Rush C. Hawkins, organizer of the famous Zouaves in the Civil war, died recently leaving a large fortune. Among his bequests was $10,000 for Rev. Dr. C. T. Walker "my talented, eloquent and esteemed friend, who is doing noble work in the uplift of his race."
BISHOP L. W. KYLES WITH OTHERS WILL ERECT $10,000 HOTEL
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Winston-Salem, N. C., Dec. 30. —A new and modern hotel for colored people is to be constructed here in the very near future. Dr. W. H. Bruce, local physician, and Bishop L. W. Kyles, of the colored Methodist Episcopal church, now a resident of St. Louis, but owner of considerable property in this city and section, have secured a site and are now having plans prepared for the building. Architect Gilbert C. Humphries expects to complete the plans in the next few days, after which the preliminaries to construction will be worked out.
The building will be located on the site of the old Grace Presbyterian church on Depot street, between Seventh and Eighth streets and will cost approximately $100,000.
STARVATION STALKS AMONG CHILDREN OF CENTRAL EUROPE
For the purpose of saving from starvation 3,500,000 orphans and under-nourished children in eastern and central Europe the European Relief Council is now in the midst of a nation wide campaign in America. Arizona is taking an active part in this campaign, receiving staunch support from the civic, religious and social organizations which in one way or another comprise the European Relief Council, it was stated yesterday at state headquarters, 524 Heard building, Phoenix. The council is made up of the Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America, the American Red Cross, American Relief Administration, Knights of Columbus, the American Friends' Service Committee, the Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A.
"The charity of the council is being administered on a policy that prevents pauperization and that develops self help," according to a statement issued at headquarters. "Every American dollar contributed to the starving children, draws $2 from European sources as cash, food, rent, light, heat and transportation. The three dollars is so expended that it will give one child one full meal a day for one month. Ten dollars will support a child until next harvest when the European countries afflicted will be able to care for their own.
"A check or cash contribution to the European Relief Council, sent to R. E. Moore, treasurer, at the Valley bank, Phoenix, is the life warrant for a European child. They are not America's children. The highest court of justice in the world would not say that it is our obligation to feed them. America's task is carried forward on a nobler spirit than that of justice—it is mercy."
ONLY PREPARED MEN CALLED TO PREACH SAYS BISHOP JOHNSON
ONLY PREPARED MEN CALLED TO PREACH SAYS BISHOP JOHNSON
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Giddings, Texas, Dec. 30.—"If God called a man to preach in this age, he also called him to prepare," declared Bishop William Dreker Johnson of Plains, Ga., in addressing the ministers of the West Texas Methodist Episcopal conference, "for in this age where the public schools, private schools, and colleges are turning out so many, God can't use an ignorant man. If you do not study you will find yourself without a pulpit for the people are asking that certain men not be sent back to them because of their extra stock of ignorance and illiteracy.
"Too many preachers sit around street corners in barber-shops talking politics and telling lies," continued the bishop, "when they should be at home studying. If you do your duty you will not have to stir up strife."
PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1921
LA. FEDERATION REFUSES TO ADMIT COLORED WOMAN
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Alexandria, La., Dec. 30.—One of the interesting incidents of the convention of the State Federation of Women's Clubs of Louisiana held here will not form part of the records of that organization.
This incident was the fight over the question of allowing a committee of Negro women, contemplating organizing a woman's club, to attend one of the sessions of Federated Women's Clubs to "see how the women conduct a convention."
The request to allow a committee of women to occupy seats in the rear of the hall as spectators, came from a number of our women of Alexandria. The question"was put up to the Council of the Federated Women's Clubs, composed of elected officers and state presidents.
The council was about evenly divided on the question, and when the "yea" and "nay" vote was taken it was believed the question had carried favorably to the Negroes. Those opposing the entrance into the convention hall, forced an immediate adjournment, and hurried consultations ensued.
Meanwhile someone notified the committee of women they could enter the hall. After they enterd it they were told that a mistake had been made, and that while the council had passed on the question, the general body had not ratified it. The women left the hall and when the question was put before the general body, the question was defeated by a vote of 2 to 1.
The motion to expunge the record of the proceedings on the question from the books of the organization was carried unanimously. According to prominent members of the Federated Women's Clubs who opposed the entrance of the women into the convention hall; an organizer of the Federation of Easter Clubs, numbering about 6,000 Negro women members, is in Alexandria, organizing women into clubs.
DECISION REVERSED BY SUPREME COURT IN ELAINE RIOT CASES
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Little Rock, Ark., Dec. 30.—The supreme court of the state of Arkansas has reversed the decision of the lower courts condemning to death Ed. Ware, Will Wordlow, Albert Giles, Joe Fox, John Martin and Alf Banks, Jr. This is the second reversal by the state supreme court of Arkansas. The supreme court of Arkansas in reversing the decision of the lower court dealt southern traditions a severe blow, and has caused comment throughout the south, where men of our race are denied rights to serve on the jury. The decision follows:
1. That discrimination against the Colored men, because Negroes were barred from the grand and petit juries trying them was in violation of the 14th amendment to the United States constitution, and of the civil rights act of 1875.
2. That the lower courts had erred in refusing to hear evidence on a motion to set aside the regular panel of the jury.
The other six men whose death sentences the supreme court refused to review will probably not be executed, pending determination of the cases recently reversed.

Harry G. Feffer, president of the eastern district of the National Story Tellers' League, has organized a colored branch of the league in this city, to be known as the Paul Laurence Dunbar Story Tellers' League. This is the second branch of its kind in the United States, the other being at Louisville, Ky.
ATTEMPT TO FURTHER CAUSE OF BOLSHEVISM BY STIRRING NEGROES
ATTEMPT TO FURTHER CAUSE OF BOLSHEVISM BY STIRRING NEGROES
(By The Associated Negro Press)
New York, Dec. 30.—The entire country is becoming greatly interested, if not alarmed, by the renewed efforts of Bolshevists, to stir colored Americans against the government. One of the most amazing expositions of this new move is expressed editorially in the New York Sun, which says:
"There seems to be an impression among foreign peoples that our Negro population constitutes the Achilles' heel of the United States. During the war German agents went through the South trying to create trouble by turning the colored people against the government. Despite, the ill success of this undertaking Lenine and his minions at Moscow seem now intent upon renewing the attempt in furtherance of the cause of Bolshevism.
REV. FRANKLIN BRAY OF CHICAGO IN GREAT REVIVAL IN THE EAST
Cambridge, Ohio, Dec. 30—All Cambridge is rejoicing over the great revival meetings just closed which were conducted by Dr. H. Franklin Bray, the Rocky Mountain evangelist of Chicago. Dr. G. B. McLean and those associated with him who secured the evangelist, are receiving the congratulations of the entire community. The membership of every church in the city, both white and colored, has been substantially increased by the joint efforts of Dr. Bray and Bob Jones, the famous white evangelist from Alabama. More than 3,000 conversions marked the meetings in the churches and tabernacle. Dr. Bray is a giant in intellect, towering high in moral and religious fervor and has great evangelistic power. He is deeply consecrated, absolutely unassuming, modest in his relations to all, brave and true, and is possessed with a wonderfully keen insight and out-sight. He knows men, his Bible and his God.
Dr. Bray spoke at noon at the great commercial centers, in the mills, glass plants, factories of every kind, in the tabernacle and in the churches. Wherever he spoke hundreds heard him gladly and with great profit. Eternity alone will reveal the great good done this city through the labors of this great evangelist and his talented and consecrated wife. Many of our high school girls were won to Christ by Mrs. Bray. A farewell reception, at which time many valuable presents were received, was tendered Dr. Bray and wife at the close of the meeting.
PROHIBITION IS OUR SALVATION SAYS BISHOP ROSS
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Warren, Ark., Dec. 30.—Bishop W. Sampson Brooks of St. Louis, recently assigned to work in West Africa, was a visitor to the African Methodist Church conference here. He made an address before the conference, appealing for aid in his "efforts to evangelize the dark continent." Bishop Brooks said he expected to establish several schools there for missionaries.
Bishop I. N. Ross, presiding officer of the conference, in an address declared that prohibition has proven the country's salvation, and that Negroes were "great benelciaries. He condemned the use of tobacco by preachers.

HOLD FAST TO JOBS IS ADVICE GIVEN MEMBERS OF RACE
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Dec. 30.—Reports reaching the Associated Negro Press from all sections of the country disclose the fact that the labor situation, so far as our people are concerned, is about the same as it was one week ago. There are large numbers of people out of work, and openings are very few.
Leroy Tucker, superintendent of the Illinois Free Employment Bureau, Chicago, states that: 'Now is the time for all people to hold fast to the jobs they have, and rather than be thrown out of employment, accept slight reduction in wages."
Mr. Tucker states that in his opinion, those who have come north to live are not returning south in the numbers that the daily press would have the public think. He states that there is a serious consideration among a number of employers in various parts of the country relative to retaining Colored help. There is a very lively group, he declares, who recently held a meeting in St. Louis for the avowed purpose of displacing their Colored employees and putting in whites.
In the matter of openings, it is disclosed that there are some employers who have accepted the theory that "blood is thicker than water," and the places that are opened are given to white workers. This condition is not general, however, a large number of firms frankly stating that they prefer our workers to foreigners who cannot speak English, and who make large sums of money only to take it out of the country, while Colored workers spend all here.
DR. LEROY BUNDY GIVEN NEW TRIAL BY DECISION OF COURT
(Special To The Tribune)
Chicago, Ill., Dec. 30—The case of Dr. Leroy N. Bundy, formerly a dentist in East St. Louis, who was sentenced March 28, 1919, to life imprisonment for conspiracy to murder in connection with the East St. Louis race riots of July 2nd and 3rd, 1917, was reversed and remanded to the Monroe county court by the supreme court at Springfield Tuesday. The court held that there were errors in the trial.
Dr. Bundy was tried after a year of legal effort to prevent the case going to court in that section of Illinois. He fought requisition from Ohio on the ground that he could not get a fair and impartial trial and after finally being returned to the state, took a change of venue to Monroe county.
Dr. Bundy is now practicing dentistry at Cleveland, Ohio, the home of his father, who is pastor of a Mehodist church there. The doctor has travelled extensively throughout the country, placing his case personally before the people. He has been received cordially and enthusiastically everywhere. It is the general opinion that he is a victim of circumstances and corrupt politics and the people have donated generously to a fund for his aid in getting legal justice.
FREE CORRESPONDENCE COURSES ARE OFFERED BLACKS IN FLORIDA
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Gainesville, Dec. 30.—Florida offers all colored people practical correspondence study courses in order that they may become more efficient and consequently better citizens through the general extension division at the University of Florida at Gainesville, as provided by the last legislature.
Courses will be offered, not only to teachers, but practical work will be given mechanics and workmen which should be of great assistance, according to B. S. Riley, director.
BLACKS FORBIDDEN TO APPEAR ON STREETS OF JERSEY CITY AFTER 9 P.M. BY RECENT ORDER
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Jersey City, N. J., Dec. 30.—This enterprising "ante-room" to the nation's metropolis has been greatly stirred by a recent order of the chief of police to the effect that all Colored people of Jersey City must remain in their homes after 9 p. m., and if they were not, they would be arrested. The entire city was stirred by the outrageous order, the people of both races rising up in indignation. The matter became so hot that the police chief openly denied having issued such an order.
He said that he had given orders for the policemen to question all "suspicious looking Negroes" after 9 p. m., because there had been a number of roberies in the community which were laid upon the head of the Colored people.
Dr. George Cannon, one of the leading physicians of the community, held a meeting of various organizations in his residence, at which time ersolutions were passed, asking for the resignation of the chief of police.
Of the matter, the Jersey City Journal says editorial:
"Director of Public Safety O'Brien did a wise thing when he tore up the utterly unconstitutional order of the police chief, who had directed that all strange Negroes found on the streets after 9 o'clock p. m. should
ALONZO HERNDON IS THE RICHEST BARBER IN UNITED STATES
Alonzo Herndon of Atlanta, Ga., known as the "millionaire barber," was born a slave in Watson county, Ga., in the year 1858, and lived there until he reached the age of 28, earning his living doing odd jobs. He then started for Atlanta with just $11 in his pockets. On his arrival in Atlanta he secured a job in a barber shop. In a short time he became manager of the shop and not many years later, the owner. Today he owns three, valued at $60,000. One of these shops is the largest and finest in Atlanta. Herndon accumulated much of his wealth in real estate deals, having invested his savings in this way. He is active in church work and philanthropy. Recently he bought and equipped a $10,000 house in Atlanta to be used as a day nursery and kindergarten for colored children. He is considered one of the wealthiest members of his race in the entire south, his estate being estimated at $500,000.
MANY WHITES HURT IN FILIPINO RIOT
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Manilla, Philippines, Dec. 30.—Seven Filipinos, three American police and one army clerk were killed and many more whites were wounded and severely hurt in a riot here last Thursday by members of the Filipino constabulary. The rioting was the worst in the history of American occupation.
Governor Francis B. Harrison was the hero of the riot. Called from his bed he went out and took command of the government forces and in a short while quelled the rioters.
The riot had its origin in the killing of a white American police by members of the native constabulary. The American is believed to have been drunk and to have resisted arrest by the native officers. He was accused of having brutally treated the wife of one of the native officers under circumstances that are declared to have been specially revolting.

be apprehended and made explain their presence on the public thoroughfare. There are much better and more legal ways of rigging the city of desperadoes and suspicious characters in these days of unrest and numerous crimes."
The masterful New York World comes out in a strong editorial of condemnation of such an unconstitutional procedure, and proceeds to give out some good old-fashioned advice on constitutional rights. Says the New York World:
"The excuse for this act is that certain crimes attributed to Negroes have occurred in Jersey City. Let some man with red hair indulge in highway robbery and we may expect the arrest of all red-haired men found in the ferry-houses. Two or three lame burglars may cause the exclusion of all hobbling rheumatic persons from the public ways.
"The constitution of the United States, as an instrument that Mr. O'Brien may never have seen, provides that no state shall "abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens" or "deny to any person, within its jurisdiction, equal protection of the laws." But what a state may not legally do may be illegally done by policemen's clubs—if he people permit.
"If policemen are allowed to make laws they will naturally not stop short of making unconstitutional laws. If it is more convenient to proscribe whole classes of the community than to arrest individual criminals they will take that easier way. If without protest they drive "idle Negroes" from a city—as lately happened—the example may be contagious.
"Negro residents of Jersey City should at once seek test suits, and they will find their rights upheld in courts that have not yet fortified their high reputation. For if such wrongs are meekly endured we shall need another Lincoln to lead the people in the high resolve that 'this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom.'"
NEGROES EJECTED FROM SCHOOL ROOM BY ROWDIES
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Baltimore, Md., Dec. 30.—It was a few minutes before 9 o'clock and the 150 students in the Colored public school on the Washington road, at Landsdowne were in their places, ready for classes to begin, when Dallas Gourley and Jack Clements, two marines from Quantico, staggered into the building and "told the world" they were going to "clean out the place."
They had made a good beginning, according to witnesses, and had terrorized teachers and students, when one youngster, resorting to extreme measures, opened fire on the olive garbed raiders with a volley of rocks.
Clements, who at the time was engaged in chasing the frightened students through the schoolyard, intercepted one of the missiles with his head. He was knocked unconscious and rolled down a steep embankment into the roadway, where Gourley was administering first aid treatment to the best of his drunken ability when eight motorcycle policemen, responding to a riot call, pulled up at the school.
Clements was taken to St. Agnes' hospital, where a gash in his scalp several inches long was dressed, and the two marines were then taken to the Southwestern police station and locked up.
When the marine disturber peared in court before Magistrate Marco and apologized, the capt dismissed. Colored citizens dignant over the outcome. Said "If those had been Colored men turbing a white school, well

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, until
it’ seems you cannot hold on one minute longer, do not give up. That is|
just the place and time the tide will turn—Marden. :
NO CAUSE FOR ALARM
Fear and worry, says a great writer, have wrought more destruction in
human lives than all the wars that have decimated the world since the
birth of the race. No one can estimate the havoc these happiness killers,
these efficiency destroyers continue to play in our lives. They ciill the
heart, whiten the hair, wrinkle the face; they take the elasticity out of the
step, blight ambition, and kill courage; they strangle hope, and leave us
wrecks of our former selves.
Apparently, things have been turned upside down and many otherwise
brilliant minds are now groping in despair and worry, seeking relief. We
admit, as all right-minded people must, that times have changed, but for one
to resort to fear and worry as a solution of the complexities that confront
this nation, is beyond our comprekension. We have never heard of anything
worth while being accomplished by worry, consequently, we have no faith
in it.
Amidst the turmoil, strife and general unrest throughout the United
States and other countries, there is nq cause for alarm. The country needs
a few clear-thinking men and women, devoid of fear and its attendant evils,
whose duty it is to restore confidence in the masses by promulgating truths
that show how the people themselves may bring on a panic or by wise and
discreet actions avert it. Often in times such as these, one brilliant mind
properly directed, can do much towards bringing harmony out of chaos. Let
each of us do his share in this direction if it be no more than to banish
fear and worry from our own mind.
Every cloud has a silver lining and let us remember, that no matter
how dark the day, somewhere the sun is still shining. We haye clouded
‘our day with doubt and until we ourselves remove this dark cloud, our sun
cannot shine.
ALWAYS IMPROVING
At the beginning of our journatistic career, we adopted the motto:
“Always Improving, Something Somewhere”, and today, January élst, 1921,
we come forth with pew and attractive headlines for our front page and
editorial page. The past year has been a very successful one for The
‘Tribune, and we take this opportunity (o thank our host of friends who
er so loyally supported this paper and enabled us to achieve such re-
markable success. We realize that public patronage makes a newspaper,
“and it has been our constant aim to make The Tribune a paper to be desired
by all readers, whatever their nationality,
| “Sometimes it has been difficult for us to write editorials, for many of
cur readers have intimated to us that we should confine our matter to
things racial in character, We are unbiased, impartial and unafraid and
for that reason we feel that Tribune editorials should be of like nature if
they are—as editorials always are intended—to portray the (rue character of
the editor.
r During 1921 The Tribune will endeavor to “spread its wings” and with
your help, become the best advertising medium and the newsiest newspaper
in the entire Southwest. Again thanking you for your support during the
years that have passed and soliciting a continuation of that patronage, we
wish you one and all a happy and prosperous New Year.
) MORE ABOUT SOUTH AMERICA
There has grown to be a widespread interest in the possibilities of
success in South America, This interest is very definite, and it is a fact
that there are thousands of people who are willing to- take “bag and bag-
gage” and go to some of the countries, providing they were certain of
freedom and welcome. ‘i
Herewith is the second of the interviews held with George Rambo, a
cglored American, a native of Kansas, who has just finished a personal
tour of Brazil, and discloses to the Amsociated Negro Press conditions and
facts us he finds them. Mr. Rambo was asked about the size of Brazil.
“Brazit is 200,000 square miles larger than the United States ,leaving out
Alaska,” said the traveller. Continuing he said: “Only about seven per
cent of the area of Brazil is unfitted for agriculture. According to the
year book of the department of agriculture fully 32 per cent of the area of
ur country is unfitted for agriculture.
“The valley of the Amazon in the Amoyonia and Para is very fertile
and capable of raising large quantities of rubber, sugar and rice. One trom
this part of the world must become acclimated, however. Permanbuco and
Bahia produce great quantities of cocoa, tobacco and sugar. Here the
climate is rather warm. Minas Gereas, Gayay and Matto Gusso constitute
the plateau region, which is high, cool and beautiful, with excellent and
well watered soil. Matto Gusso in particular is well favored, One seldom
pr a fellow countryman who is not enthusiastic over the possibilities of
State. Those from the little known interior will tell you that in the
forests and plains, and beneath the rugged surface of the mountains there
is an enormous accumulation of wealth awaiting the industry of the couins
generation.”

The ladies of the various clubs are winding up their year's work and the reports will show that all have been very successful the past year.
The Self Improvement Art club is doing a great work towards raising funds for the purpose of building a day nursery. They have several hundred dollars in their treasury and a ways and means committee working to meet all current expenses of the club. The ladies are finishing some beautiful pieces of art work for a bazaar which they will give at an early date. As a member of this club I can say that we are climbing the ladder of success round by round.
Members of the Progressive club will bring their year's work to a close on December 31 at 3 o'clock, when a meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Taylor in North Ninth street. A splendid literary program has been arranged for this meeting and I have been asked to prepare a paper on club work. The members of this club have been quite busy since early in the fall and from time to time I have noticed the beautiful pieces they were making.
I have not received a full account of the work of the Dunbar club, but I know they have been doing many things and have wrought something worth while during the past year. A full account of their work will be given in my next article.

A tremendous emergency exists in Eastern and Central Europe. Poverty, privation, suffering and death still march unchallenged and unchecked.
But there is one cry that cannot be hushed and there is one challenge that cannot be disregarded.
It is the cry of hungry children; the challenge of Life or Death.
At least three and a half million children in Central and Eastern Europe are face to face with disaster and death. Already they are in the grip of winter, half-clothed and unsheltered. Famine and pestilence have added their menace to already existing horror.
Unless aid is rendered at once, there will follow a tragedy so vast as to be unspeakable.
