country would require federal troops other six men whose death sentence or police for its enforcement, or the status quo should be recognized by the readjustment of such states representation to the basis of its actual voting population under its own laws and practices. Thus, Congressman Thinkam declares, a promissa will be placed upon the narrowing of franchise laws and regulations. Congressman Timlaham declares that this is not a sectional question. His test possible moment either separately resolution providing for an inquiry or together with such report, said delegates a remedy in any state which committee may submit in conference alleges the existence of more voters with proposed legislation providing as a basis of representation in Congress for a reapportionment of represents and the electoral college than in Congress, to the end that such permits to participate in elections reapportionment shall be construited. It is a question of right and wrong, final in form and in fact.
Has a Plan To Nullify State Practice
FEDERAL ELECTION LAW, GUARANTEEING THE RIGHTS OF EVERY CITIZEN, SHOULD BE PASSED.
The battle for distribution of seats in Congress and the electoral college upon the basis of voters permitted to participate in elections in the several states, rather than upon mere population has been launched by Congressman George H. Tanisham, of Massachusetts.
Representative Tinkham declares that the time has come when one vote in certain states of the Union should cease to have the same power as two, three, five or ten votes in other states and when the plain mandate of the Constitution for reduction of the representation of states which may have reduced their voting population should be carried out:
One of two courses lie open to the national government, Congressman Tinkham declares, in the face of the whole-state distrustment of men and women who are citizens more than terms of the national Constitution; a federal election law guaranteeing the right of every citizen to participate in national elections should be passed, when in some portions of the country would require federal troops or police for its enforcement, or the status quo should be recognized by the readjustment of such states representation to the basis of its actual vot-
Following is the resolution introduced by Representative Thibam in the House on Monday:
"Whereas, the 11th Article in addition to, and Amendment of, the Constitution of the United States, Section 22 provides:
When the right to vote at any election for the choice electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the executive and judicial officers of a state, or the members of the legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of, such state being twenty-one years of age, and citizens, of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such state;" and
WARNING No secular political disorganization can exist between the several states of the Union and of their citizens than the general conference upon the states alike of the power to prescribe qualifications for electors, subject alone to the limitations of the 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States) upon a basis of population; and the consistence of an extensive and evasive unconstitutional deputy of the exercise of the franchis to some citizens by some states resulting in disproportionate political power, accounted and enlarged by the recent enfranchisement of males; and arrests. The census of population of 1829, which shall be based the ensuing reapportionment of representatives in Congress, renders imminent a material increase in the number of representatives. If the 14th Amendment to the Constitution shall continue to be ignored and invoked. Therefore
"Resolved. That the committee on the census, or any subcommittee thereof, is hereby authorized and directed to proceed forthwith to make diligent inquiry respecting the extent to which the right to vote is denied or abridged to citizens of the United States in any state in violation of the Constitution of the United States; and gold-committee is authorized to send
The Savannah Tribune.
New York, Dec. 11—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Ave., today announced an important victory in the case of the colored men condemned to death in connection with the Arkansas plots of 1919. The Supreme Court of the state of Arkansas has reversed the decision of the lower courts condemning the men to death. This is the second reversal by the state supreme court of Arkansas in these cases and announcement was made by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the association that the fight will be continued in the courts until justice is had.
The Supreme Court of Arkansas in reversing the decision of the lower court held:
1. That discrimination against colored men, because Negroes were hired from the grand and jury trials trying them, was in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, and of the Civil Rights act of 1855.
2. That the lower courts had erred in refusing to hear evidence on a motion to set aside the regular panel of the jury.
Wind comes from Arkansas that the other six men whose death sentence the supreme court refused to review, will probably not be excused pending determination of the cases recently reviewed.
for persons and papers, to administer oaths to witnesses, to conduct such inquiry at such times and places as the committee may deem necessary, and to report its findings and recommendations to the House at the earliest possible moment either separately or together with such report as said committee may submit in connection with proposed legislation providing for a reapportionment of representatives in Congress, to the end that such reapportionment shall be constitutional in form and in fact.
Statement Issued by Representative Tinkham
Following is the statement of Congressman Tinkham upon his resolution:
"A repositionment of representatives in Congress for the several states is to be made by the new Congress in accordance with the Constitution and the census of 1520.
"Under the Constitution representatives in Congress are apportioned every ten years in accordance with the population of the several states, but Congress is directed to reduce the representation of any state in proportion to the disfranchisement of any of its citizens.
"Many states of the Union have not morally disfranchised large numbers of their citizens and yet unconstitutionally retain the same number of representatives in Congress as if no disfranchisement existed, thus giving to the voters who are not disfranchised in those states a political power far in excess of that given to those voters in states where disfranchisement does not exist.
"This has led to great political inequality among the several states and consequently great political injustice. "But the day has come when national elections in the United States can no longer be half constitutional and half unconstitutional.
"There can be no double standard of constitutional enforcement
"The political morality of one state of the Union must be the political morality of all states of the Union
"The very essence of law and order is the enforcement of the fundamental law of the land which in the United States is the Constitution
"The Congress of the United States has no moral right to ask the citizens of the United States to obey laws which it itself passes when it has refused to obey the plain commands of the Constitution in relation to its own elections and how it shall be constructed.
"For America to pose before the world as dictator of international morality and sponsor of international cable with her national representatives elected in flagrant and defiant violation of her Constitution is the height of national hypercyle
"These things must and shall come to and end.
"The resolution proposes that an investigation be made of existing disfranchement in the several states in the House of Representatives shall be reduced in accordance with the direction of the Constitution.
"The Issue Is One Of Law And Order
The issue is purely one of law and order, constitutional enforcement and political equality.
"The great political inequality and great political injustice between the several states under the present unconstitutional apportionment of representatives in Congress based on the population without relation to the disfranchised votes in the several states can be seen by the following comparison of votes in the congressional election of 1015: The votes for the last election are not yet available.)
"The total vote for representatives in Congress in Alabama which has ten representatives was 62,345, whereas the total vote for representatives in Congress in Minnesota which has ten representatives was 29,127, and the total vote in Iowa which has ten repre- continued on Page 4)
REV. GOODALL'S SPECIAL SERMON
Delivered In a Forceful Manner Sunday
A Large And Appreciative Audience
Hears Interesting Discourse
The large and appreciative audience that filled the main auditorium of the First African Baptist church, Franklin square, on last Sunday morning, listened with rapt attention to the space sermon delivered by Rev. T. J. Goodall, pastor of the church. The subject of the discourse was "Nationall solicitude and for one hour and a half effort in a forceful and masterly effort held the audience spell bound. Notwithstanding the that Rev. Goodall was suffering with through trouble, his every utterance was that and plainly understood by the several hundred that crowded the church. He was eloquent throughout the sermon and outlined very beautifully many points that were interest and beneficial. He dwelled on the necessity of a "leadership" and so forcefulness it was presented that it seemed to be a matter for the congregation to refrain from applauding on such an occasion. Rev. Goodall has delivered several of the special sermons since pastoring at the church, but it was evident that the one of last Sunday morning was more touching and more eloquently handled than any previous one. The special music by the choir, the condition of a solo by Mrs. A. R. Elmouson and a selection by the chorus were also pleasing.
The church has recently undergone extensive repairs and is extensively furnished. Remodeling of the lecture room is now in progress and when finished it will be conveniently arranged.
COMMUNITY XMIS TREE

There has already been set up on the Yamacraw Playground a 40 foot Xmas tree. Plans are being made to have the tree electric lighted. Miss Agathy Curley will direct the singing of the carols.

This playground is located at Lumber and Hull streets and in easily accessible. The entire community is invited to come and sing and celebrate with these children 6 o'clock Xmas night.
AMERICAN LEGION, MISSISSIPPI
DIVISION, ON THE NEGRO
At the annual meeting of the Mississippi Department of the American Legion, recently held in Jackson, a resolution was unanimously adopted stating "we realize that the Negro is with us, a part of us, and here to stay; that he is an important and indispensable factor in our industrial life, and as such is entitled to a square deal, and should be treated with common honesty in all his relations with the white race; that we urge all local posts in this jurisdiction to give this subject close attention, and put forth their best efforts for the promotion of harmony between the races, in order that our common welfare may be served."
NATIONAL FACILITIES FOR
WHOLESOLE
[Associated Negro Press]
Washington, D. C., Dec. 30—The Park International, an illustrated, bi-monthly magazine published in Washington, D. C., offers from widely chosen sources, courses in the development of park areas, and private. A contributor to the New York issue of this magazine, entitled "Playground for Colored America" written by Emma T. Attwell, Director of Bureau of Colored Work, Community Service, Inc. approaches a new held of welfare for the colored people. Mr. Attwell's opening statement is significant. "It has long been assumed that so universal a worker as the colored man has not time for play either in youth or thereafter. For his salvation and for the solving of his problems we have long heard of the value of religion, of education and of work, but until lately we have not heard much of his need for recreation."
In the field of recreation, the glimpse into national facilities for promotion of wholesale play and the emphasis of the need of increasing such as exists, will be sure to enlist the interest of social workers. The article is illuminated here and there with splendid illustrations.
Our racial group will be proud of the manner in which the subject is treated and it is destined to enlist the cooperation of recreation and park boards in many cities if the information can be obtained in various national leaders and organizations. Community Service is doing a great work, directly, among our people in developing social centers, playgrounds and recreational programs including drama, music and games for young and old. Introducing a presentation like "Playgrounds for Colored American" in an international publication will add to its service to the colored man though out the world.

Unemployment Situation Continues
Urban League Unable to Find Work For Unemployed Men and Women
Chicago, Ill., Dec 11—More than 5,000 people came to the office of the Chicago Urban League for employment during the month of November. This represents an increase of over 100 per cent in the average attendance figures of the league's employment department. Of this 5,000 only 608 were actually placed in positions. Thus, while our attendance showed an increase of more than 100 per cent, our placements showed a decrease of 50 per cent.
Unemployment is greater among men than among women. Of the large number women calling for employment 12 per cent were placed as against 5 per cent of the men; but the total number of men and women placed was smaller than for any month. In the month of November 1919, with an attendance of 2,338, we placed, 51 per cent of our applicants, or a total of 1,216 persons. These figures only indicate that there has been no improvement in the unemployment situation in Chicago. In fact, as the month advanced conditions grew worse. At present the league itself unable to hold out hope to the large number of unemployed. From indications, it is safe to predict that not before now first of the yeild will any material change. We made in the unemployment situation. It never more hazardous to change jobs than at present. The league has never experienced great difficulty in interesting employers than at the present time. The diversity of employment open to colored people is more limited than at any time since 1916.
Emancipation Arrangements Uuderway
The Social Club Union and the ministers of the city are working together to perfect arrangements for the emancipation celebration on New Year's day. For the past several years there have been two celebrations held, one by the Social Club Union and the other by the ministers. The coming together of the two factions this year should make the celebration a spectacular affair. As is custom, a particle will be held in the morning in which quite a number of the clubs of the city and other organizations will take part. Ix Congressman T. M. Miller, of Charleston, S. C., has been invited to deliver the address which will be held at the I. A. B. church.
SOUTHERN WOMEN ON THE NEGRO
Memphis Team. About one hundred spouses of white women act legitimately in admirers to consoles ways in which, as Christian women, they might better Negro life in the South, representative women on the Presbyterian, Episcopal, Baptist, Christian and Methodist churches were present, and representatives of the L.W.C. and other Christian organizations. The report of the gownings committee, unanimously adopted, has just been public. It covers such phases of New Life life especially appeal to women. It adresses the formation of local inter-racial couples similar to those now so common among women. It acknowledges the responsibility white employers for a better protection of colored domestics, in the homes and on the streets. It favors dignifying household service as an occupation, and raising in its public respect.
Day nurseries and kindergartens are recommended in every community where Negro mothers work. Free baby clinics are urged; and a survey of housing and sanitation, to be followed by needed reforms. Educational surveys are also called for, better school buildings, a fairer division of school funds, longer terms, and better salaries for teachers. Women are urged to outspoken support of law and order, and of all officials who stand for the same. Adequate legal assistance should be provided locally for Negroes in need of it. Adequate accommodations on railroads are called for, and courteous treatment of Negroes by street-car and railway officials. Effort should be made by every agency touching child life to instill mutual respect into the hearts of children of all races. The report calls also for a single standard of morals for men and women, white and black; and the women pledge themselves to stand for the protection of womanhood, regardless of race or color.
The press of the South is urged to refuse to exploit criminality from a racial standpoint; and to give all possible publicity to worthy efforts of Negro citizens, and to the constructive aspects of racial relations.
A continuation Committee, consisting of one woman for each organization represented, will devise ways and means for working out, by local units of the various bodies, the measures proposed to be presented to one denominational state gathering, where it was adopted, and plans made to carry it out locally.
The Committee includes Mrs. Luke Johnson, of Georgia, chairman, Mrs. T. W. Flickett, Talehall, N. C. Mrs. Archelh Davis, Atlanta, Ma.; Mrs. J. G. Jackson, Little Rock, Ark.; Mrs. J. H. Crandon, Jasper, Ala.; Mrs. W. D. Weatherford, Nashville, Tenn.; and Mrs. Z. I. Fitzpatrick, Madison, Ga.

A STARTLING REVELATION

Slave 18. Years
Contributions Taken Up To Fight Case In Court
Buffalo, N. Y., Dec. 16th—The citizens of Buffalo have been shaken by the uncovering of a crime which, which has been hidden for 18 years. One of Buffalo's white attorneys went south and brought back a little colored girl, six years old. She has lived in his family every since.
But that was 18 years ago. Last week a 21 years old colored woman, none other than this former little girl ran away from her master, for it has developed that she was servant of that family all these years, without pay. She has never been inside of a church
or even spoken to a colored person. she has been doing all of the work of the family of nine adults, washing ironing, scrubbing, cooking, cleaning without pay. When this child was 14 years old she was criminally a suited by "some white man, gave birth to a child in the Buffalo Poor House, but as soon as she was able was taken back to the home of her "slave master," and here she stayed until last week. Her "master" has invoked aid of the Chief of Police to get back his "slave."
At the Christian Culture Congress of which Mrs. Mary B. Talbert is President, strong addresses were made and a contribution was taken up to give Mr. Cornelius Ford, one of Buffalo's prominent citizens has done the detection Club and it is reported that the Douglas Club, Wheeler and Culture Congress will get the courts in behalf of the girl, and try to secure not only her wages for those enforced years but hope to make this lawyer suffer the full penalty of the law, according to the Amendments to the Constitution.

DRUNKENNESS CAUSE MOST
OF THE INDULGE IN LAW
Port Au Prince, Dec. 31—"The witness," the special correspondent of the Chicago Trumbe, who has been giving careful observations of conditions in Miami, has declared that drunkenness is at the bottom of most of the trouble in the republic, but the drunkenness is among the white foreigners, some officials, and not the patrons. This statement is most remarkable, and he says:
"After a fortnight of patient and often disarrhifting observation of occupation affairs, an conclusion that a great part of the story of our troubles may be told in three letters. They are K-U-M.
To an American planter I said:
"I am beginning to think that may be 50 per cent of all these scandals are due to drink.
The answer was, more than 50 per cent.
During a fortnight in this black republic's capital I have not seen one black man intoxicated. All the intoxication has been among white foreigners, and sometimes even officials.
Col. Rusel, commanding the first professional brigade of marines, is a most consignation officer and correct gentleman.
Order after order is issued, but the two situations. Drinking here is doubly vicious because man is so potent a stuff that it seems to fly to the white men's head almost instantaneously, with the consequence that intense nervousness and frascality, as well as diminished physical resistance, result.
I long debated whether to touch on these matters, but they are so florid that somebody should speak of them."

HE INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL OF WOM
(By Mrs. Mary B. Talbert)
Now that the ninth quinquennial meeting of the international Council of Women has passed into history, and a colored woman for the time in its existence has been honored,电子 as a dangle, it might well to give a little history of an organization that we may more clearly see the importance of on repre- tation at the great meeting which has just closed its sessions, at Christina Norway, September S-16.
The Council was organized Washington, D. C., March 31, 185 with the following Preamble
"We women of all nations, sincerely believing that the best good of humanity will be advanced by greed unity of thought, sympathy and pose, and that an organized moment of women will best conserve the highest good of the family and state, do hereby band ourselves together in a confederation of worker committed to the overthrow of forms of ignorance and injustice, to the application of the golden rule of society, custom and law."
National Councils of Countries constituted the membership, and first National Council of Women in the United States elected as its President Frances E. Willis.

The presidents of National organizations are the members of the Executive Board, together with Council Officers and Conveners of Committees. The passport required for admission to the Council is "Do unto others as you would do unto you."
When the women commenced to study the reason for women's organizations they found out that in every instance they were formed for the benefit of some suffering class. They had no bearing on the condition of women themselves, but regarded either the physical or spiritual welfare of others. The first National Society of Women in the United States was an anti-slavery society, formed with the ultimate purpose of delivering the colored race in our country from bondage, through the curation of the doctrine of human liberty, and through building up public opinion on the one side, and aiding the escape of fugitives on the other. This society assumed a National name and form as early as 183d. Following this, were missionary and temperance societies and then gave the suffrage organization, this is a bit of history that I think is well worth remembering, later came the Women's Club organized for their own power and resources and for the higher development of society. At
the beginning the aim of this organization was for a league of Humanity, no "large," no "small," no "rich," no "poor," no "white," no "black." As this council could come ladies with the greatest titles, with the greatest social position but also may come women without titles and without social positions, and if the sit there, they both sit as women who work for humanity.

SAVINGS AND SENSE
This week, banks of the city are paying out hundreds of thousands of dollars to their Christmas savings depositors. Many of these fortunate and thrifty people are colored people, and many of these thousands of dollars are being paid out by our Negro banks.
It has been a wonderful practice for teaching thrift and saving and economy and self-denial to the people. Few of these would have otherwise had any opportunity to learn and practice thrift but for this provision of the banks to encourage small savings. It has been a fine thing in teaching regularity and punctuality, and has gone a long way in developing character and impressing a sense of responsibility. In fact, the moral effect of these teachings is of far more value than the actual money involved, because the child who saved five cents a week regularly, and kept that principal of thrift in his mind during a whole year, has derived a benefit greater in all respects than the grown-up who saved a dollar a week.
What is to become of all this money
In the face of these hard times and
the still 'uncertain future'?
Will it be wasted in unnecessary Christmas spending? Or will the thrifty, realizing that time and conditions are far from what they were a year ago, return most of this money to the banks to be rareed for the uncertain future?
Many men are out of work. Wages are being cut all over the country. In the large cities, thousands are idle. In the rural communities, cotton and potatoes and corn and syrup bring a price less than the cost of production. Cotton sold at forty cents a year ago; is bringing thirteen cents today. Bushel which brought two dollars a bushel then is bringing sixty cents now.
Can anyone be so foolish as not to see the need of even more self-defensal for the sake of saving? Is it not Batter to leave off something not absolutely necessary for the time being, keep the money in hand, or in bank, so as to be able to watch the drift of things and be able to spend that money more advantageously?
Parents are more to fish than feed when they are made to do foolish things by the entreaties of their children. It is not love, but it is rather a lack of good sense, to gratify children in a non-essential toy only to face a lack of money a month later to buy books, or coal or clothes or a pay a tor's bill. And so many of us will continue to do this.
The really happy parent is he who has the power at all times, from his good sense and economical spending, to make reasonable provision for his children. With money in pocket or bank one has a source of happiness which induces.
It would be well then, for the thousands of savers, now while the money jingles in their fingers, to think over the situation and weigh carefully their own outlook for the future, before wasting what their good sense and good fortune have brought to them.
It would be wise for many of these very people, although they have doubtless already planned the spudding of every cent and have all along through the year been saving to certain ends, to now change their plans entirely (because times have changed) and save their money.
It is extremely difficult to predict what will next twelve months may bring to us.
THE N. A. A. C. P.
The Wednesday night meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People illustrates that the colored people of this city are much interested in a local organization. There was a large crowd of substantial and earnest people out, and the discussions following the mastery address of Dr. Alexander showed that this community senses the great need of this powerful organization which is doing so much to advance the cause of the Negro in America and elsewhere.
We should have at least two thousand members of the organization in this city, based upon the population and other considerations. And two thousand people banded together for protection and for promoting the community peace and welfare will exert a worthy moral force in this community, with few more colored people, than the number of over three thousand and is increasing its membership. The national organization has doubled its membership and the number of its branches during the past two years, and the work it is doing for the race and the nation is past calculating.
The national association was represented on the platform committee of the Republican party at Chicago. It has caused the introduction of bills in Congress looking toward the making of lynching a Federal offense, toward putting down of Southern representation to the basis of the federal law.
It is still throwing the white light of truth on lynching in every case, and is keeping close up with the governors and authorities charged with the administration of the law in those states where lynchings occur.
It was largely instrumental in bringing to the attention of the civilized world the conduct of the American Marines in their unwarranted depredations. Halti and Poto Rice This, it will be remembered, had much to do with defeating the Democratic party in the recent election. The American Marines have killed 3,000 natives in Halti in the past five years.
It promotes the general welfare of the people of our race, and demands an equal chance and equal opportunity in every line of the national progress for our people.
It is fighting Jim crowism.
It is fighting disfranchisement.
It has fought and won the case against housing segregation.
We believe every Negro citizen, man and woman, who feels the interest of their race, and of his children, will join this local branch and make it a great success.
Every institution and organization in the city is asked to bring its members into this body.
THE TERRORS OF FARMING COMMUNITIES
It is ridiculous for white men and newspapers to keep preaching to Negroes that the farm is the place for them, that their best friends are there and other tommy-rot. in the face of the actual conditions and relationships, that exist and that they know exist.
Last week we had in Savannah, a poor Negro woman who had escaped the wrath of the Florida mob which EIGHTEEN CSHR CHR DL had burned her brother, his wife and five weeks old baby before vier eyes, along with a dozen other Negroes. This woman was a physical and mental wreck from having crawled and lived about in the swamp for six days, without food and without clothing.
This week, Savannah people succeeded in rescuing from his oppressor at a point in Bullock county, another Negro and his wife and the children, after his brother had been as assassinated, his own life jeopardized, his nephew's the lives of his wife and children, his life was attempted when his brother was killed from an unnatural country road. His friends have observed the assassins lying in wait for him, regularly since that time. He has been compelled to sleep away from home, hide around much as a hunted animal. Conditions were so bad in his section that every Negro there was afraid to render him any aid in the moving of his family and belongings away, so he was faced with not being able to stay and be able to get away. Finally, a good Savannah lieutenant went there and moved part of his effects to Savannah where he may be safe, but this was done at a tremendous sacrifice, because much of his produce and live stock had to be hid among irresponsible people.
Why this extreme hate against these Negroes? Were they bad or criminal? Had they committed any wrong? There seems to be absolutely no question that every one of them is a good citizen, all regarded as "good Negroes", hard working and industrious, coming of a long line and family of good people, large family connection. As is the case with industrious and enterprising Negroes, they made money and bought land, built up a nice home and improved the quality of their land and surrounded Them.
leaving the lands involved; the whites took advantage of the children first by increasing their advancements; then by offers of purchase and finally by actual fraud. The matter went to the courts; and although the issue is between Negroes and whites, tried in that atmosphere, before juries unfavorable, if anything, to Negroes, the Negro liztivans have won every decision which has been rendered to date. It is this pressing of their rightful claims in the courts, and the winning, which has inspired the hate which caused assassination, and brings the oppression which this unfortunate family suffers. Not that they have done any wrong. The red of the whites there suffer it, because it is none of their particular business, and "they are just Negroes" anyway. This is but one of thousands of cases obtaining in the country district of the South. In many instances, if a Negro builds up a fine farm, or breeds a fine hard or a blooded horse or a sow, and a white neighbor wants it, he must let him have it.
Why then should Negro leaders urge Negroes to remain on the farm in the face of this oppression, this peonage, this lynching and burning? True it is not everywhere, but it is very wide; one can never tell where it will locate, nor next nor who will be its victims. And good citizenship and good behavior are no guarantees of protection or safety from the ravaging mob.
REP. TINKILAM STARTS BATLE
"As representation in the electoral college is based upon congressional representation, the following figures in relation to the presidential election of 1016: (The vote for the last election is not retailable.)
Startling Figures On Presidential Vote
"The states of Alabama, Arkansas,
Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee,
Texas and Virginia cast a total vote
for all presidential candidates of 1,
870,200. In Congress these states have
a total of 104 representatives and in
the electoral college these eleven
states have 126 votes. The state of
New York alone cast a total vote for
all presidential candidates of 1,700,
354 and has only 43 representatives
in Congress and 29 votes in the
electoral college. The state on Pennsylvania
cast a total vote for all presidential
candidates of 1,297,007 and
has only 38 representatives in
Congress and 38 votes in the
electoral college. The state of Ohio cast a total
vote for all presidential candidates of
1,067,086 and has only 22 representatives
in Congress and 24 votes in the
electoral college.
"The total vote cast for all candidates for President in 1916 was, 185,8743. The votes of the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia was just 10 per cent of this vote, yet these states have a representation in Congress of about 25 per cent of the membership, with national woman suffrage the figures when available will indicate that these states cast only about 5 per cent of the total vote for President, and yet have 25 per cent of the membership of the House of Representatives.
"The House of Representatives under the present apportionment consists of 435 members, each member representing 211,577 inhabitants. As there has been an increase in the population of the United States during the last ten years according to the census of 1920 of 13,710,512 people, if the present base of representation were used there would be an addition to the membership of the House of Representatives of 63 members. This addition to the membership of the House could be nearly entirely avoided by having the same units as the base of representation and by enforcing the 11th Amendment in accordance with the Constitution.
"It is my intention to ask the attendance at the hearings before the rules committee and the census committee of the House of Representatives of all national organizations interested in the maintenance of law and order and the enforcement of the Constitution, bar associations, societies for the preservation of the Constitution, organizations for constitutional liberty, woman suffrage associations and others.
A new bill for reapportionment of representation will never pass the House of Representatives unless the bill accords with the direction of the 14th Amendment of the Constitution without most serious and bitter opposition.
"If the House of Representatives frames a reapportionment bill which is plainly unconstitutional by avoiding the enforcement of the 14th Amendment, it is now my intention to question the constitutionality of the election of the next House of Representatives, and to presume that the Supreme Court for a determination of these great questions and the restoration of political equality and justice in the United States."—National Republican.
SPECIAL OFFER BY
BUSINESS SCHOOL The attention of our readers is caused to the unusual offer made by the Derrick Business School or Philadelphia. Southern business men have round the Derrick School just the place to send for stenographers and just the place to send their untrained clerks and assistants to be prepared quickly and thoroughly to fill positions either as efficient stenographers or secretaries.
The board of directors of the Derrick School, realizing that southern girls are more alive to business nooks and requirements, more anxious for a course than their northern sisters, but are placed at the disadvantage of additional expense for railroad fare, lodgings and other incidental items, has decided that they will until January 10th 1921, offer a very special inducement to all southern students desiring to take this wonderful Boyd's Day System of shorthand and typewriter or bookkeeping, filing office practice. The system taught at the Derrick School is truly remarkable and the institution has become a national one. The Mutual Life Insurance Company of Durham, N. C., Savannah Wage Earner's Savings Bank, of Georgia, Tidewater Bank and Trust Company of Norfolk, Va., and many others have sent young people to the school, paying their tuition so that they could return to fill high salaried positions after six to ten weeks of study.
For those who wish lodgings, comfortable dormitories and all conveniences are right in the school.
A common will be found on page two which when sent to the school will cause emolliatory brooklet and restraition blanks to be sent you. This opportunity is most timely and our readers will do well to accept it.

We are continually talking, orating and writing about the "new order," the new Negro and the new spirit" which this period dominates our group, if the spirit means skiling in the tents, fudic fault, looking for others to bear burden with no efforts on our part, the quicker we rid our selves of the contemptible octopus the better. When if the taxes 'and other education funds are not usually distributed, sham and share alike, are we to mark him retreat and surrender? No, it is a cayes a challenge to show the stuff of which we are made, do with out a number of useless furbels, sacrifice the elgars, the pictures, the high heel show the silk stockings and shirts, and other non-essentials which we pour in the coffers of those corporations which we fat on our credulity and grittility and from the profits of our sweat and labor endow colleges and universities for its forbears to which our grow like Moses of old, can enter only by slight.
Honesty to ourselves, self respect for our children demand that we rise to the occasion and do our duty; no fraternal organization or secret society, no insurance would have carried us with out money and without price as long as has the human and Christian hearted A. M. A. We would have been expelled long ago. In the matter of re-opening Beach Institute it means no more or less than titls, here after there will be no sponging, but every fellow who table must pay his dues, and that is as it ought to be.
What Willington, N. C., and Mobile Ala, can do Savannah can and will do. Those cities have no monopoly upon love and interest in the educational welfare of our children. Let us, not to be left away with the idea that there will be no war in the future. The struggle in all its bitterness has already begun but remember that the present and future conflicts will be conflicts not of brawn but mind. Our salvation, our security, in the ever present now and future depend upon the master minds within our group.

History tells us that the foundations of Chaldea, ancient Babylonia almost coincident with Egypt. In fact, in the beginning of the world they were two sister colonies of a parent empire. Cushites created Chaldea; 6000 B. C it was a civilized state. Ancient Babylonia was a division of Cusha-Dipe, the Cushite empire of Ethiopians of Pre-historic times. Ancient authorities tell us that the first organized government of the world and the first dominion over the various tribes, was of the Cushite race.
Today archaeologists are unearthing indisputable, proofs of the extracrimality of Chalden. They have unearned at Babylon evidences proving that under her oldest cities, lay the foundations of other cities, which preceded the Babylonian world. This substitutes the old legend of the Dolege upon the Babylonian tablets, that the survivors of the Flood returned and rebuilt upon
The tradition continues, "This animal came at morning up out of the cape and passed the day with men, but it took no nourishment, and a insect went again into the ocean and here renamed for the night. The fish taught men language and science he harvesting of seeds and fruits and rules for bound uries of lands, the pode of building cities and temples arts and writing and all that pertains o the civilization of man. This early tradition and the image of the Fish God represents historical happening in the life of an undeveloped and unrouted people.
The Cushite Ethiopians were a near-time people, who had long possessed the arts. The Fish-God represents a ship bringing the civilized Ethiopians who taught the arts unknown to the aborigines of Chaldea. It shows that civilization did not originate in Chaldea, but sprung from the Pre-historical race that proceeded them. "Beroes tells us that the Chaldean traditions placed their birthplace ordinarily as the Erythranean Sea which we know in deep antiquity was the seat of Ethiopic culture. There supremacy in the early age was preserved by progress in the industries and in science, nurtured with myths and traditions peculiar to the Ethiopian mind. There ships appeared upon the coasts of Chaldea, bringing to them the arts of civilized life. Just as Ethiopian colonized Egypt, so she colonized Chaldea India, and Italy, introducing religious science, manners, customs and arts. They pushed back the original inhabitants, afterwards the Semite tribes and their languages everywhere except in the West which afterwards became Assyria.

INTEREST SHOWN IN
LIVING IN SOUTH AMERICA
Chicago, Ill. Dec. Sth.-Because of the widespread interest in the possibilities of living in South America The Associated Negro Press has held a series of interviews with George Tambo, a man of our group, who has recently returned from that continent with amazing stories of what colored people may accomplish.
"Early in the summer of 1020, "says
THE SAVANNAH TRIBUNE SATURDAY
Mr. Rambo, "in company with two Chicago and one West Virginia gentleman, I made a trip from New York to toio De Jarelho, on one of the English ships plying between these cities. We had heard many wonderful stories of the greatness of that country. Nothing we had heard, it develop were equal to things we saw.
"Brazil is a republic, the constitution and law making bodies being very similar to those of the United States. A law abiding foreigner has the same privilege and is given the same protection that are given natives, except the right to vote. Voting can be acquired after a residence of two years in the republic.
countries, Brazil is largely an agrural and mining country. Empire in the cities is not so easily tainted. Brazil wants people to see in the country districts. There been organized a syndicate comp of prominent Brazilians and Americans colored men to point the way for the who wish to pioneer. This syndicate has a capital of $200,000.00 with eight in Chicago and Rio De Janelo. I called the Brazilian American Collation Syndicate. Land of excellent quality, well timed; good water be bought at about four dollars acre, in 250 acre tracts. Corn, rice and all root crops yield at 16 two crops a year. "South America
ing together on grounds of absolute equality of opportunity. There are no disdinctive whatever, other than those imposed by wealth, culture and position. The outstanding terrestrial of the people is the universal love of their country.
"We saw foreign people from the Mediterranean countries of Europe who have been there only a year, joining with the native born in celebration of the numerous national holidays. And why shouldn't they? I know of no place in the world where the conditions are more favorable to peace and comfort to the ordinary person than in this country. It is possible to live with very little effort in that land of abundance. But I do not say this is an inducement for the lazy and shillttess. In a cold country nature provides grudgingly, but in Brazil everything grows in great abundance. The streams are full of fish; the air is filled with birds; rich fruit, nuts and herbs may be gathered almost everywhere any day of the year. Two and three crops are harvested. Since no coal and few clothes are needed for warmth, it is no wonder that the oppressors and half starved of other lands fired reasons for relieving.
"The Brazilian is always kind and courteous, and I was especially pleased to pose the beauty of the family life. As a father and husband, the Brazilian man has few equals. Divorces are practically unknown, and the growup married children generally live with the parents. I have seen families with forty members, parents, children and grand children. The Brazilians rule their families with love rather than the rod.
"I think the courts are fair and it anything, inclined to leniency. I saw only one man arrested, and that for intoxication, within two hours the stage man passed me in the street sniffing."
"Even slavery was never cruel and harsh in Brazil. The relation of slave to master was much in the nature of a hind servant. They belonged to the same church, observed the same feast days, and often married into the family of the master. Today the same internal relationship exists. All celebrate Emancipation day together. It is a national holiday like our Fourth of July.
"The country is fortunate in having no deep national wounds to heal. There is no division of the country caused by difference of opinion on the slave question. Thirty two years ago the slaves were freed by universal common consent without shedding a drop of blood. Brazil, it will also be remembered, secured independence from Portugal without bloodshed. Such a country and such people have a great future.
"American colored people are invited to participate in the uplifting of a great nation in Brazil. I hope my people in this country will see the wonderful opportunities offered them. Read books, and study map concerning the country. It is not advisable for people to go there for location without becoming land owners, unless合同 for work of a high technical character. "Export accountants, stenographers, scientist in medicine, dentistry, engineering are in demand. As all new

the conduct of the Master towards his
mortalen, he must study the present
equation so each member must act as
collingly. He must rule with knowledge,
firmly, consistent, timely and
increasingly yet with that spirit of gon-
eros humanity so engaging in our wielding authority.
His example of maternal forbearance and affection will impress his brother to conate his junior coth
ers to initiate, his ideals of brotherhood, thus steadily promote the true spirit of fraternity, charity, and morality, which are the tributes of Masonic harmony and the clearest exposition of its mission. Masonic Standard.
Heaven is blessed with perfect rest, but the blessing of Earth is too. Henry Van Dyke.
There is not a Mason who has traveled even to the limit of each rule whose interest has diminished for the symbolic degree. In fact, his interest has grown stronger, for the audible knowledge has illuminated their lives and brought him to acknowledge them as the parent of this wisdom.—Virginia Masonic journal.
A Mason is a man whose conduct should be imparted by a strict restraint and justice towards his fell creatures; his demeanor should be marked by the level of courtesy and kindness; while uprightness of heart and integrity of action, symbolized by the plumb, should be in him guished characteristics, and thus guided by the movable jewels of Masonry, he may deserved the vale of life with joy, in the hope of being accepted by the Most High as a successful candidate for nomination into the Great Lodge above.

From necessity to develop the nobler and better attributes of our nature to school our hearts up to the sublime motions of charity and thus approach nearer the realization of truly "loving one another."
Hospitality to the stranger is a solemn duty. It costs nothing to be fraternal and social. The visitor to our folks should be made to feel that he is among friends.
This earth would be changed into a paradise if, instead of hating, human beings loved; if, instead of speaking evil of one another, they spoke only good; if, instead of grasping and holding, they gave away.
Chicago, Ill. Dec. 15th—The most worshipful Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Illinois and juniorship provided over by the Right Worshipful Grand Master Thomas H. Samuel, highly honored Dr. Walter N. Thomas, third degree, at their last annual communion then by conferring on him the title and privileges of a Past Master. Such distinctions are usually conferred on members for meritorious service or great distinction by Scottish Rite Masons. It was conferred on George Washington and Thomas Dunkely of Scotland, by subservicing and grand lodges in their time Dr Thomas presented to Prince H. Lodge a precious moment from the grave of our ancestor and first grand master Prince Hall of Boston, the tender and father of all legitimate masonry among Negroes of America at
Dr. Thomas was a member of the emption Board No. 2 of Chicago during the recent conflict of the United States in the World's War, also served with the Eighth Illinois Infantry on the border of Texas and Mexico in 1914. Dr. Thomas will hold the distinction of being the first on record of colorado to have received this honor.

Great Southern Insurance Company OF ATLANTA
ANNOUNCES THE OPENING OF ITS OFFICES his Company is now ready to perform a real service to members of our race by protecting their property and possessions from loss by fire. With a paid-in capital and surplus of $145,000.00, this Company is in a position to fulfill a long felt need. Several attempts have been made in the past to promote small institutions of this nature, but this is the first and only company of its kind organized, owned and operated by men of our own race. This Company, backed by sufficient capital and efficient men, commands the absolute respect and confidence of the people.
It is the purpose of this Company to write all forms of fire insurance, but special emphasis and effort will be given our department of Industrial Insurance, which includes household furniture and effects. A very interesting phase of this department will be the method of payment on policies both weekly and monthly.
Every business enterprise owes something to the community in which it operates. The Great Southern Fire Insurance Company will, according to high minded business men, render in the greatest way possible, a service that is felt by every family, in our community; it will absolutely protect the furniture in your home from loss by fire.
The management of the Company's affairs is in the hands of the most capable and efficient business men. Under the direction of these men the Company may well look forward to the time when there will not exist a single district in our entire South where the Great Southern will not stand topmost in this field of work.
