The Topeka Plaindale .NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE OUTLINES PROGRAM FOR YEAR. N. A. A. C. P. TO RAISE MEMBERSHIP TQ QUARTER OF A MILLION BEFORE NEXT JUNE. James Weldon Johnson, Secretary the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, today announced that the association was about to enter upon a drive to increase its membership to 250,000 before next June. In making the announcement Mr. Johnson made public the fighting programme which the Association had adapted for the coming year. Mr. Johnson's statement follows: "A quarter of a million people is a force which cannot be ignored. Neither Congress, nor the oppressors of Colored labor in the south, nor the newspapers, can ignore a quarter of a million colored and white people determined that the Negro shall be given in the United States what the federal constitution promises to every man irrespective of race or color. With a totally inadequate membership the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has already undertaken and carried to a successful conclusion tasks of the first magnitude. The brutal invasion and the exploitation of Haiti was brought before the bar of judgment by only of Americans but of the civilized world. Antlunching legislation has been introduced, at the instance of this association, in both houses of Congress. The disfranchisement of Colored people has been curtailed before the Census Committee of the House of Representatives. A campaign initiated against the Ku Klux Klan by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has met with the endorsement and support of labor unions in New York and elsewhere. Robert L. Hill charged with leading the Colored farmers in Arkansas, was defended in court and freed and the cases of his companions carried to the state supreme court of Arkansas which twice reversed their convictions. There are only a few of the activities of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in 1920. They will be extended and given greater power as the membership increases.

President Elect Warren G. Harding, St Augustine, Fla. Sir:— Hoping you both health and success, and that the Lord will lead you wisely in the proper selection of your cabinet which will be of great benefit to the nation, is our prayer. We wish to call your attention to the outrages being perpetrated upon the Colored people in Florida, Georgia and Arkansas. Since you have been in the state of Florida, a Colored man was lynched and burned in Arkansas, one lynched in Florida and another in Georgia. I know you are informed from time to time of these outages and the good citizens, both white and Colored of this nation pray that you will call the attention of the American people to these many outrages, and that some national action may be brought about whereby members of a mob can be brought to justice. If the Ku Klu Klan movement, the intimidation of voters and the nullification of the 15th Amendment of the constitution are allowed to continue, we will soon have no government which the people will respect As the Immortal Lincoln said, "this country cannot exist half free and half slave." Neither can we succeed with the law being nixed out to one class to the detriment of the other. We hope this message will be encouched in your inaugural address as well as your message to Congress Editor, Torcha Phindalee President Kanya Defense Society An Open Letter. An Open Letter. Topeka, Kansas. February 21, 1941 Dear Madam: We were favorably impressed with your visit to this city, Feb 16th and want to assure you that our Race is with the Irish in this struggle for independence. We wish it were in our power to bring about the desired results. The Irish race has been local, honest, and upright in their dealings with the American people, as well as other nationalities. They did their part towards making American what it is today All that the Colored people ask if that you use your influence with the Irish and other Americans, to bring about freedom for the Colored race in America, which is not only being deprived of its freedom and liberty, but being lynched, burned and driven from their homes. While we listened to your statements of the many crimes being committed against the Irish by the English, we recounted that there were none half so cruel as those perpetrated against the Colored race of America. We hope great women like you, as well as men, who espouse the cause of freedom, will not neglect the down trodden people of my race in this country, especially of the southland I feel that you are aware of the conditions in this country, as it is my opinion that you are better informed of American history, than 95 per cent of the American people. Wishing for you a long life and success, and you may rest assured that the sympathy of the American Colored people is with you in this great struggle. I am, NICK CHILLIFFS Freel Kansas Defense " " " " Topeka Plainsboro The Supreme Lodge and Incampment of Knights of Pythias, will be held in the city of Toroka, in August 1921.

Walter Wilson, An Efficient and Capable State Official. M. B. Hon. Walter Wilson, State Bank Commissioner Kansas and its citizens should be proud of Mr. Wilson who has made the state one of the best bank commissioners in the history of that office. No former occupant of that office has undergone the hard struggle as he has. The late war, frustrated finance, and the ardent ambition of the people to make money, the speculation in commodities which soared so high during the past few years, were among the many problems which he has faced since going into the office. Numerous banks and other institutions sprung up in Kansas and the people clamored for for more money. The Federal reserve banks said, "let them have it." After the war and the reconstruction period set in, the bears set up a cry for their money, and the banks had to call on their customers. Something had to give away, the tension was too great, the strain must break somewhere. You in the face of this financial struggle, in which only a small number of banking institutions went down, the banks of the state passed through the crisis, and those who did not appreciate the efforts of this office, and the examples of the present commissioner, wanted and insisted that he resign his office because of the small loss incurred by the failure of the few banks, the outfit of said forgers being out of favor treatments. The linenly department was kept busy in order to constrain violence over the entrance of wild enterprise coming in the state. Mr Wilson's hands are full and of all, and efficiently did he manage the affairs of this office during this financial struggle. We would not have been in the least surprised at the failure of a larger number of banks thruout the state, had it not been that Mr Wilson stood at the helm and directed the affairs to a successful conclusion. With the Kansas banks overloaded with paper and the urgent demands of its customers for money, it is indeed surprising that a larger number of them have not been forced to the rocks. When the props began to clip. Mr. Wilson, with his hand upon the throttle and his eagle eye looking far ahead, warned the financial institutions by sounding a timely warning to get close to shore, and this was the cause of these few failures. He was extremely careful, but the crash was inevitable. It must come, and well did Kansas survive it. In order to cry 'wolf' a few excited losers called for an investigation of the Bank Commissioners office and after several weeks of costly examination by bank experts and exhaustive argument in the Supreme Court, a Referee was appointed to go into full details of the transactions of the office from the beginning of the administration of Mr Wilson up to the proceedings of the court. Attorney Challis, of Atchison, the Referee, went over the entire proceedings and transactions of the office of the commissioner, and reported to the Supreme Court that he found everything pertaining to the office in first-class shape, every transaction conforming to the law and regular in every detail. His every act was found to be honest, upright and above question. The opposition lost every point raised against Mr Wilson by the conduct of the state banking office. "the citizens of this state insist on Mr Wilson an apology for quite strong his integrity as a business man for he has proven to be a high class business man of sound judgment and faith consistent to keep the financial institutions of the state in the front ranks Mr Wilson is a schedul tpe of the modern auto into business men An upl. by christian gentlemen who is giving the state the most and best service for the small solar attached to that office which is as small as one paid the state officials and he doing twice the work owing to the great responsibility connected with that office Mr Wilson served the state as Senator and is responsible for some of the laws now on the Kansas statute books PRICE $1.50 PER YEAR EL RENO, OKLA., NEWS Mr. and Mrs W E Young, 701 West Foreman street entertained the following guests at a Valentine party at their residence last week: Mr. and Mrs. George Green, Mr. and Mrs. F.

(By Dennia S. Thompson) A saying that has held good thru all the years, and one that is very true and forcible is, that, "the home is the greatest school, and the mother should be the greatest teacher in the world." Parents should guard well the cradle, as education cannot begin so soon upon the essential matters of every day life. The choices of life begin very early. Between truth and lies the smallest child can choose. When the future opens on the vision of youth, purity or impurity, honesty or dishonesty, must be chosen and followed. The first and best school of politeness, as of character, is always the home where woman is the teacher. The manners of society at large are but the reflex of the manners of our collective homes, neither better nor worse. Yet with all the disadvantages of ungenial homes, men may practice self-culture of manner as of intellect, and learn by good examples to cultivate a graceful and agreeable behavior towards others. Most people are like so many gems in the rough, which need polishing by contact with other and better natures, to bring out their full beauty and lustre. Some have but one side polished, sufficient only to show the delicate graining of the interior, but to bring out the fullest qualities of the gem, needs the discipline of experience, and contact with the best examples of character in the intercourse of daily life. It is very important that parents should teach their children some things concerning life before they are placed in school. In a great many of our homes the parent waits for the advice and teaching of the child. What a grave mistake. How natural is it for children to look up to those around them for an example of imitation, and how readily do they copy all that they see done, good or bad. The importance of a good example on which the young may exercise this powerful and active element of their nature, is a matter of the utmost moment. The child must be started right at home, thus relieving the school of burdens that should be borne in the home. The parent should work for a program that will insure good salaries for teachers; they must work to secure the best teachers; they must visit the school and cooperate with the teacher, and Board of Education, to get the best results with the child. The child should be kept in school every day possible. Training of the mind, heart and hand, are imperative to a higher success All of our common schools should include industrial, and religious training, as more of our group need to know more about earning a living, and the principles of right living. Let us secure all the education we can, but, let's get the kind that will make us love to work, first. In the cities we find our groups lending their talent and effort, toward the building of fine church edifices, to the exclusion of more business enterprises. Ten churches poorly financed, and poorly managed, where five good substantial churches free of incumbrace could be maintained instead, is a mighty poor business proposition. In all the large cities we should, and could have a department store, where the needs of our group could be served, besides giving employment to many, which would give us more finance for the support of our religious work. In the small town and rural districts, we have many little churches struggling for an existence The great need now is that some of these little missions be consolidated in order that they may have strength. Another need is for more edu cated ministers and leaders, if they are honest and willing to lead and teach the people right; if they are not right, give us those who are honest, and have common sense. The itinerant preacher with his denominational bugaboo, has been a great drawback to our group, and a menace to Christianity, his doctrine is the incentive to envy, prejudice and mistrust, and works a division among us and we cannot gain strength. Let us look forward to the dav when we shall have ministers and leaders of common sense, and that fine christian spirit, capable of unifying the people that we may build in a way to gain strength and be a help to the world, as well as a credit to ourselves. THE KU KLUX KLAN There seems to be sentiment predominant in the Southland whereby the Ku Klux Klan is to be favored by law, that is, public sentiment, which is the dominant law of the south. This Klan is intended to outrage and cower the womanhood and manhood of the Colored race in the south. We trust that the honest, upright citizens of that section, both white and Colored, will do all in their power to destroy this organization. If it is allowed to grow and thrive, it will mean the destruction of the law. The intention of the organization is to destroy the rights of the citizens, and especially the Colored, and proof has been established that Colored people are today leaving the south from orders given by this Klan. We will shortly reproduce some interesting data about the conditions in that particular. LINCOLN INSTITUTE On Sunday, Feb. 6th, Rev. Damel, a member of the Lincoln Institute faculty, and pastor of the Christian church of this city, preached at the three o'clock services at the institute. Continuing the lectures by members of the faculty, Miss Helen Crampton read a very clever paper before the student body, Monday, Feb. 7th, the subject of which was: "The Customer's Creed." In this paper Miss Crampton brought out the idea that there can be a symphony in dress as well as in music, and that keynote must be simplicity. "Your Reference Shelf—Its Reward," was the subject of the speech rendered by Mrs. Helen Whiting, teacher of Primary Methods, at the Wednesday chapel service. Mention was made of the beautiful influences on our lives of selecting the best in music, art and literature, with particular emphasis placed on the last named. Quotations were given from many of the choice selections in literature, such as would suit our every mood and attitude. The House Committee on Appropriations, Representative F. W. Hopkins. Chairman, visited Lincoln Institute, Tuesday, Feb. 8th and took dinner in the Domestic Science Dining room, at 6:00 o'clock. Music was furnished by the Boys' Quintette and the Girls' Octette. Mr. J. A. Jeffress, A. B, Tufts College, comes as an addition to the Lincoln Institute faculty.

Mrs. Annie Cowen, of Cameron, Mo., was at the Institute during the past week, owing to the illness of her daughter, Miss Julia Parkerson.

Dullols will lecture here on the 7th of March. The Negro schools in this city are likely to close on the 1st of March. The School board has shown that they are not very much interested in Negro education. They told the committee of Colored men that the south had a certain class of work for the Negro to do and to educate them units them to serve as servants. "Stuff sed" What? Fido, is barking to protect the "Broken Idol" at Helena The release of Lvun, the denial of the Negro children an education, and the sentiment of the local papers along with the stink left by the state Democrat convention all point unmistakably to the plans and purposes of the south as regards the Negro Mrs Green of Reeves addition entertained friends with a chicken dinner last week.

Miss Maggie Wilson is home from George R. Smith college. Her stay will be short as she will return to school in a few days. Mrs Pearl Hancock and Mr. Henry Smith of Sapulpa, were married last Tuesday evening. Any preacher or leader who lends their influence in keeping the Colored man in the south, is to that extent a party in all the outrages that the Negro suffers. The Propeller Club is doing all they can to assist the Health Drive and create UNITY among the business Negro We have ever held that the Lincoln League was no more than a political clearing house.

Mr T J Elliott has opened a new store in the town of Bleggs. This is the fifth store in his chain of clothing stores throughout the state. Something is wrong somewhere. For instance, the sending of prescriptions to the white drug store by the Colored doctors and the needless calls to make a bill. No Negro merchant can demand the partonage of the race so long as he signs contracts to employ white lawyers annually. This kind of burk must be exposed. I shall give a list of those who have signed such contracts We need a few decent restaurants in the city where decent people can go and not be insulted by the 'barrel-house' element We are suffering for that kind of place. We have hardly two, which are fit. It is better to lose the schools than to be forced to beg, grin, stoop and sacrifice our manhood. If we cannot fight like men, don't allow any 'hat-in-hand Negro' go up and station off our manhood. Louisiana Negroes have let down their buckets for the last 50 years, to draw it up filled with murder, rapine, robbery, theft, ignorance, poverty, misery and all kindred evils which go with the proverbial bucket. Negro preachers are the only ones who can handle the ignorant Negro. Why doesn't be teach the women of the race to keep, white agents from coming to their homes. Some of the Negro preachers' wives have a white agent coming to their homes. They dollar the whites gives the Negro churches throut the south is a sacrifice of manhood and woman- head on the tail of the race. The Negro jumps in the pulpit in some of the southern states won't be able to hold the young Negro for his white losses.

Just a shell knock. We have listed about 40 families to go to Gary this summer, notwithstanding the moral bankrupts who are encakingly opposing the plans. Dr Hudson is now operating his Dental Parlors in the Nave building. The Negroes fresh from the south are gorging themselves on dead properly which they cannot sell for half the amount they pay. Decency demands that we look in to the burial place. There is a little spot which has been used for the last ten years. People are being piled into the same grave. Graves are being plowed under and resold On Decoration Day, the people can hardly tell the burial places of their dear ones. This is a bleeding shame and should be looked into by the courts of this country. There is a certain lodge in the state that has had protection from Oklahoma City.
