The Savannah Tribune. VOLUME XXXIV National Association Annual Meeting BAS 44,096 MEMBERS DISTRIBUTED IN 165 BRANCHES Association to Cocontinue its Vigorous Campaign Against Lunching New York, Jan. 10—The ninth meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was held here, Monday January 6th. The business session was held in the afternoon at the United Charities Building and in the evening a mess meeting was held at Carnegie Hall on the general subject, "Africa in the Democracy." The chief business of the afternoon session was the presentation of reports on the work of the Association for the year by the secretary, John R. Shillady; by the field Secretary, Jas. Weldon Johnson, and a statement of the findings of an investigation made by the assistant secretary, Walter F. White, into the workings of compulsory work laws and so-called 'work or fight' ordinances as affecting colored people, particularly women, in certain southern states. There was also brief statements from a few representatives of branches who were present At this session officers and members of the board of directors were elected, Moorfield Storey being re-elected to the presidency of the association. It was decided at the business session to appoint a committee of seven to take under advisement the structure of the association, its constitution, the constitution and bylaws provided for branches, the relation of branches to the National office, including the relation of branch organizations to the board of directors and to the nomination and election of members, this committee to report its conclusions and recommendations to the annual spring conference of the association which will be held some time late in May at a city centrally located yet to be selected, at which conference, lasting the better part of a week, it is expected there will be a large representation of delegates from the association's branches in the thirty eight states in which they are now or organized. At this session a resolution on the death of Colonel Roosevelt was passed, in which it was stated that the ex-President was, in many respects, the greatest friend of the American Negro in public life. At the night meeting, resolutions were passed which resulted in the sending of a cablegram to President Wilson pledging him loyal support in his efforts toward the establishment of a universal League of Free Nation which shall have among its central duties the protection and development of the peoples of Mjiddle Africa, and of a similar communication to the president of the senate. Mr. Shillady's report, as secretary, showed that the association has at present 165 branches and 44,096 members, in 38 states, the Phillipine Islands, the Isthmus of Panama and Canada, an increase for the past twelve months of 85 branches and 34,419 members. The largest branch was shown to be that in the District of Columbia which has 6,843 members; the largest number of members in the Southern states is to be found in Texas. The report of the association shows that 63 Negroes were lynched during 1918, an increase of 45 per cent over 1917. The association believes that the actual number of lynchings exceeded this total because of it having in its possession authenticated accounts of cases which have not appeared in the public press. Five of the year's victims were women. Two men were burned at the stake before death. Three men, in addition to the two burned at the stake, were tortured be fore death. In fourteen cases, the report said, victims were taken from police officers and jails. The actions of Governor Bickett of North Carolina, Governor Manning of South Carolina, and Governor Hender son of Alabama were commended in that these governors took cognizance of lynchings and endeavored to have legal action taken to bring the guilty parties to trial. The attitude of Governor Bilbo of Mississippi was contrasted with these three public spirited governors, Governor Bilbo having been quoted in a Jackson, Mjss., paper as saying that he would tell the association "to go to——," when he was asked what answer he would make to a telegram sent him by the National Association. The report continues by saying that the association intends to raise red EDWARD PERRY, ACTIVE HEAD OF MECHANICS BANK A. S. S.

New York, January 18- The warm breezes of the southland beckon, and the chilled mortals of the north heed. Every train bedings to the sunny south those who would be comfortable during the cold wave, and as comfort is largely a matter of clothes, the trip affords for the woman an excellent opportunity to rebuild her ward robe which, perhaps, has been neglected during the war. What is worn at Palm Beach is always a forecast of what will be worn in New York for the late spring and early summer. All the pretty light things that are now shown for southern wear will be the very same in design and line that those who remain at home will don as soon as the © MCGAIL temperature permits. Wise indeed is she who takes advantage of the sales at the shops of this filmsy material at the shops now, for she has a wider selection, and the quantity being more It is safe to say that any design copied from the models now will be very smart next summer. Therefore, to stock up now would be far more discreet than rushing, as the majority will be, in the hot summer days. Many novel summer styles of course that could not be worn about town are shown, but the discretion of the aver age woman may be relied on sufficiently to warrant her complete choice. One of the shops is showing a dainty little hat developed in raspberry-dotted dimity with a parasol to match. The crown of the hat is slightly shirred, and a coy little rose of raspberry colored satin rests confidently on the brim over the right eye. The handle of the parasol is ivory and the mate of the satin, rose on the hat is vainly pursuing its companion, for it is stopped abruptly about two-thirds of the way up the handle by a hand painted ring of ivory. This attractive set can be well imagined shading the hot rays from some pret McCALL ty thing who was just made for rasp- berry dimity. Georgette dresses seem to be favor ed. Pale shades, such as flesh and robin's egg, blue with white in the lead, are most numerous. Many of these frocks are emboidered clabo rately with beads of contrasting colors. The lines are simple and the unsophisticated appearance of the soft mass of material is fascinating. The Succesor of Khaki-Kool A new novelty weave is on the market which resembles very strongly the khaki-kool of last season. The material is silky in its composition, but has a surface which is made rough by irregular lines of silk of various thickness running thru it. This is used for smart mode is extensively in view, and there is no doubt that the woman of refined taste will admire it, for it is simple and servicible.

Point d'Esprit, which is hand embroidered with silk floss and sometimes combined with Georgette, is popular. The craze for embroidery extends from the tip top of the parasol to the alluring envelope chi mise. Sometimes it is silk, sometimes worsted, and many times wood en deads. Rose Point and Venetian Lace For breakfast coats and boudoir use, lace is in demand. A gorgeous thing of heavy Venetian, with bits of Georgette of a flesh color tint slip ped in, makes a breakfast jacket fit for a queen, but worn by the American woman. The vest of the satin dress illustrated could be made of lace if desired or the guimpe of the overdress might show bits of flesh through the screen like mesh of some delicate lace. The satin frock features the one sided drary and rather extreme narrowness at the lower edge. RESOLUTIONS Savannah, Ga. Jan. 12th, 1919.

Martin Attend Dedicatory Exercises Statesboro, Ga.—An event of much interest and moment to the Negroes of this section of the state was the opening recently of the new sanitarium which was erected by Dr. Harzey Van Buren, one of the most progressive and most widely known Negro physicians of southeast Georgia. The dedicatory services were largely attended and were held in the afternoon, the Rev. Dr. C. T. Walker, of Augusta, making the principal address and Rev. A. C. Dunlap acting as master of ceremonies. Other numbers renderd were a solo by Mrs. Julia P. Bryant, and remarks by Dr. C. E. Brent and Dr. L. H. Martin, of Savannah. A notable feature of the services was the public donations to the sanitarium, which aggregated $125.00, several of the donations being in ten and twenty dollar bills. The sanitarium, which is a wooden structure, is located on Elen street. It has accommodations for fifteen patients and is very nicely furnished. It has two large sleeping porches, dining room, kitchen, operating room with all modern equipment, two wards, nurses rooms, reception room, office and four other sleeping rooms.

BURKE Clay Editor Published Every Saturday 1000 WEST BROAD STREET Phone 211 NEGRO THRIFT The prosperity which came to the farming interests, due to the great demands and high prices for foodstuffs during the war and continuing until now, has been shared by the Negro farmers as well as by the whites. From all parts of the state, news comes that Negro tenants are buying land, Negro landowners are increasing their holdings, improving their homes, increasing their farming equipment, and indulging in some of the luxuries which rightfully belong to the laborer, such as the purchase of automobiles and the like. We believe that the next enumeration and summary of Negro progress, which will come with the next census, will show astounding advances in the material progress of the race, and such a progress, in fact, as will make the Negro for the first time a commercial and industrial factor to be reckoned with in the South-land among the struggling forces of other peoples. We are glad to see this, because it not only provides a stimulus to Negro advancement in a general way, but it becomes a substantial economic basis upon which to launch the contentions for fair play and justice, politically and otherwise. We are advancing along all lines, to be sure, and much as we may be hampered by forces which would keep us back and make our existence unatisfactory and uncomfortable, our successes will provide our oppressors just so much the bigger task. Success inspires hope in the rank and file, and our leadership, determined and vigilant as it is, takes courage from the frugality and industry of those who are succeeding and accumulating. In spite of narrowed opportunity and vision. The social and racial regime of the Southland, which in many instances lowers the purchasing power of Negro money, provides Jim-crow Cars, makes for inefficient common school education for Negro children, and the like, is more complicated today than ever before, due to Negro economic progress and we must continue to press our claim to equal economic and political opportunity by legitimately increasing our own strength and thus more emphatically illustrating that we deserve it, and that it is our due. In cities, Negro business men are undertaking bigger ventures through corporate enterprise, and thus are hus banding and marshalling Negro capital as never before. The commercial competition which arises as a result of this, and which will become keener as the days go by, in the bid for the tremendous Negro trade in all Southern centers, will have a very salutary effect on these social and political questions, and will help to settle them. We are going forward, through the industry, vision and thrift of our forceful men and women, and we must eventually come forth victorious over our oppressors and over the obstacles which hinder us, both because we are right and because we have the mettle which makes a people overcome all. REGISTRATION 'Who would be free, himself must strike the first blow." Negro men of Savannah and of Chatham county, let's go up, pay our poll taxes, qualify and register as citizens of this state and nation! Let us with self-reverence, self-respect, patriotism and courage accept the full duties and responsibilities of free government while contending for its privileges and protection! Can we consistently claim that we are disfranchised and denied participation in the affairs of government when we are contributing, primarily, to our own disfranchisement? Are we ever to be reckoned and esteemed as self-respecting and hence deserving of respect, when we are not qualified for citizenship? We have hundreds of preachers in Savannah and Chatham county; how many have qualified and registered? We have hundreds of city and county; how have qualified and re have hundreds of profess. in this city and county; how of these have qualified and re.ered? We have hundreds of business men, here; how many of these have qualified and registered? All these are leaders; all these are being looked to for direction by the 48,000 Negroes of Chatham county for guidance; can they hold up their heads with the dignity and consciousness of manhood which they should? We are going to take a census of these lezuling men, to find out just "who is who." THE N. A. C. P. It would be quite impossible to over estimate the tremendous value of the 1918 campaign of The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to the American people, white as well as black. While this organization, as its name indicates, is primarily committed to social, economic and political relief for the Negro race in the United States, it is in an even broader sense committed to the moral salvation of America, because its fundamental platform is the establishment of liberty and justice to all men. The National Association proceeds upon the theory that the constituted authorities of a free government, like that in America, proper agency to correct of the land and bring abnormic and political justice. It is logical reasoning, in view of the lofty principles of liberty and justice on which this commonwealth is founded, to suppose that this great government is moving toward these great ends through the enactment of additional necessary legislation and securing the proper execution of that sufficient law. It could not be otherwise in a democratic government. The wrongful excesses of capitalistic programming, the oppression of labor the social injustices perpetrated upon the weaker races and classes of the nation, must all be corrected and regulated by the strong arms of government. These are the primary foundations and duties of the governing power, and when government fails to regulate its internal relationships upon this basis of right and even justice it becomes unsteady and unstable. Logically and theoretically, at least, the lower and smaller functionaries of government power, like the states and municipality in turn, derive their force and authority from the central national government and, hence, are amenable to its mandates and powers. Any excesses and transgression of national principles and policies, then, are blameable eventually upon the national government, and such wrongs must be corrected by national power. In the local state bounds of our nation, many flagrant wrongs are committed against the Negro race, on the score of race alone. Lynching, Jim Crowism and disfranchisement are notorious crimes, committed openly and definitely in the face of the national constitution which makes all men equal, guarantees to every man security in the enjoyment of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and casts upon every American the duties and privileges of citizenship. How, then, can it be that those social and political abuses endure? Why does the national power not intervene to wipe them out, forever? The vague and ambiguous, so-called "doctrine of States' rights" can provide no sufficient subterfuge for the national authority and conscience. Then too, there can be no sufficient excuse for temporizing or delay. The issue is squarely drawn between the National Government and the opressed peoples seeking relief and justice. The issue is on trial before the public opinion of the world. What will the answer be? The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is trying to save the Nation from the fatal results of these indulgencies, the moral degeneracy, the political decay and disintegration, if not the anarchy, which these terrible abuses must bring down upon the head of this nation. The Association is gaining in strength and power thru an ever increasing enrollment of citizens of all straight from the shoulder. It appeals to the executives of constituted thrity, thru the law, in the court and on the basis of intelligent investigation and the discovery of fact, and it is bound to succeed in final adjudication. Let the Association grow in power thru the enlistment of thousands, yea, millions of advocates of fair play and justice until the preponderance of those who believe in a militant and practical and living Democracy shall wipe wrong and oppression from the face of the earth.
