Jones, dean of the Liberal Arts College of Wilberforce University, is the author of a book now used in Harvard, and sought by other leading American universities. Dr. Jones holds a doctor's degree from the University of Jena, Germany, and his book, a thesis written at his graduation, is considered a masterpiece of psychological re- search. The work, originally written in German, was at first used by the universities of Continental Europe. It finally worked its way to the universities of America, and at the present time, there is a copy of it in the Harvard Library that may not be taken out. Boston University is one of the institutions that are seeking to use Dr. Jones' book, as well as to translate it. In writing to Dr. Jones, the university expressed its appreciation of the depth and scope of the work, and also expresses the hope that Dr. Jones may someday take his proper place beside other great American scholars. The book is a monograph of 40 pages written by Dr. Jones as his graduation thesis. It is a treatise on the work of Lotze and Howe, two great philosophers, and is now the recognized authority on those two masters. Dr. Jones is one of the few Americans, and the only American Negro to receive the degree of Doctor of Philosophy from a foreign university. He is the author of several other textbooks, and is one of the greatest students of philosophy in American today. The Savannah Tribune. HOWARD GIVEN A NEW RATING Need Accredited List Colored Secondary Schools Stressed Swathmore College, Pa. Dec. 7th—At the thirty-fifth annual convention of the Association of Colleges Preparatory Schools of the Middle Atlantic States and Maryland Lead at Swathmore College, Friday, November 25, announcement was made by the Commission on the Accrediting of Higher Institutions, composed of some of the foremost educators in America, of the approved list of colleges and universities in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Fifty nine of the Mid-State colleges and universities were placed on the List, including Howard University at Washington, D. C. The educational standards used to judge the colleges contained in brief a careful computation of the curricula teaching staff and finances of each college. It took into consideration only those institutions having at least eight professors giving their entire time to instruction. It also took into consideration the qualifications and training of the teaching staff. A college year of at least thirty four weeks of academic work is required and the amount of work to be done by one instructor figured largely. The currentum was considered as to its breadth of study and concentration and also its relation to the resources of the college. The salaries of instructors and entranced requirements for students were all studied in reaching the standard of rating. The announcement of the new rating of Howard University was given by President J. Stanley Durkee, who attended the recent convention of the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Middle States and Maryland, in the University Chapel Wednesday, November 30, and was received with much applause and cheering by the officers, faculty and student body. After the announcement, President Durkee asked the deans of the Daryl Schools Sending Students to Howard University"; and "The Effect of the Rating on Racial Cooperation." The subjects were discussed by Dean D. W. Woodapell, of the School of Liberal Arts; Dean D. O. W. Holmes, of the School of Education; and Dean Kelly Miller, of the Junior College respectively. The need of an accredited list of colored secondary schools was brought out, and Dean Holmes spoke of the measures being taken by the Registrar's office to make up such a list. Another point stressed was that this new honor and opportunity brings new responsibilities and that each student of Howard must consider it his or her duty to keep up with the advance of the University. Mechanics Bank Buys Twilight Property Deal Involves An Amount of About $7000.00 A deal of considerable interest in financial circles was that of Wednesday night when the Mechanics Investment Company took, over the affairs of the Twilight Reapers Investment company, the consideration in the deal being in the neighborhood of seven thousand dollars. The Twilight Reapers Investment Company has been in existence for about four years and holds it assets several apartments on Bolton street, considerable stock in the Wage Earners Savings bank, real estate in Springfield Terrace and other property. There were several bidders in the field for the company. The Mechanics bank was represented by P. Dale Perry, president. WISCONSIN STATE PRISONERS GIVE TO TULSA RELIEF New York, N.

THURSDAY DECEMBER 8, 1921 CHURCH REPORT GRATIFYING Hughes Cites Many Instances Of Good Being Done The report of the Reverend Dr. W. A. C. Hughes, Director of the Bureau of Negro Work, of the Board of Honor Missions and, Church Extension of the Methodist Episcopal Church, read at the annual meeting of that body in Philadelphia during the first week of December, was enthusiastically received. At frequent intervals through the report of Secretary Hughes, who is himself a man of Negro blood, the board applauded. This is the first time Dr. Hughes has appeared before this body to represent the biannual Negro Work of the Church, which was created a year ago at the annual meeting of 1920, "Previous" to that time Dr. Hughes was Area Secretary of the New Orleans Area of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He has spoken before burge audience of Negroes in many parts of the country and is regarded as one of the most brilliant of the younger leaders of the race. He received a number of votes for Bishop at the General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church at Des Moines Iowa, May 1920, in spite of his youth. Reviewing the work of the Negro Bureau during the past year, Dr. Hughes featured the rural schools provided by the Methodist Episcopal Church for Negro rural pastors. These men come from all of the twenty Negro conferences of the denomination to study for several weeks in the summer to Wiley College, Marshall, Texas; Gammon Theological Seminary Atlanta, Ga.; and Morgan College, Baltimore, Mo. Here they receive both theoretical and practical instruction in solving the problems faced by a rural minister. Dr. Hughes gave a number of specific instances slowing the remarkable advance achieved by many Negro ministers after this short period of careful instruction. He mentioned Gonzales District, Gonzales, Texas, where one of the summer school graduates, the Reverend J. S. L. Elmonsdon, has raised the money to buy fifty acres of land and is conducting a demonstration home garden that has crossed the color line and attracted the attention and support of the entire community. The Sykesville District, Sykesville, Md., doubled its church membership in a single year an increased its financial rating more than twice over in a short time after its minister, the Reverend L. B. Miller, had received instruction. During 1921 twenty two Rural S leties were organized under the al WILL DYER BILL COME UP SOON His Passage Is Of Much Moment To Negroes Of The Country Washington, D. C., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press—Congress) has taken on new breath. It has started on the last lap of the race prior to the Congressional elections of 1822. President Harding has delivered another message, and the way is being cleared to do some constructive legislative work before the day of reckoning. It must be confessed that Congress, thus far, has done little or nothing of a constructive nature, to endear itself directly to colored citizens. Now and then there has been a flash of effort that has given a ray of hope to the people, but it has given away to a smoke screen of frowns, that indicated to the people most interested that, there is nothing doing. Consequently, the people are looking out on the landscape of Congressional action with: a degree of skepticism born of continued disappointment. From all the authoritative sources in legislative circles on the House side, the people are led, to believe that among the first measures to be considered in the new and regular session of Congress will be the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. It has been considered and reconsidered by the various committees of the house passed on and obeyed by the Department of Justice and Lay strong Administration backing. Popular sentiment of all law abiding citizens favors such a bill. If under these circumstances, Congress falls to pass the Anti-Lynching bill, then there will be good reason to doubt the sincerity of purpose of the party in power, much more reason than at present, and there has been much reason thus far according to statistics of omission and commission gathered by the experts on political accomplishment. At Dunbar Theatre On Sunday Afternoon "The Federation of Colored Women's Clubs will hold a platform meeting at the Dunbar theatre Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock. All women of the city are asked to be present. Special invitation is extended to the men of the city to be present at this woman's meeting. Reserved signs will be provided for them. Mrs. T. J. Goodall, chairman of educational committee, Mrs. Nathan Roberts, president of Curler school parent teachers association, and Mrs. W. G. Hill, president of the Federation visited Maple and West Broad streets on last Monday morning. The principals, ref. Gibson and Prof Bryant, respectively welcomed these visitors with dignity and cordiality. After inspecting the various rooms they commended the work of the principals and teachers of these schools, who in several instances, the visitors observed, are working under great disdain tages. The ladies said they were greatly benefited by the visit and learned many interesting things.

C., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press)—Postmaster General Hays recently sent a check for $50,000 to Walter Ambrose, the colored mail passenger at Lake Charles, La., who, single landlady, fought off mail bandits and in doing so was shot through the stomach. Despite his wounds the plucky mail messenger punched the robbers some distance, firing four shots, at them and then delivered the mail to the train intact. The law does not provide for the reward unless there is a capture, arrest and conviction of the robber, but in recognition of special and meritorious services rendered and information furnished that may be of material assistance in the apprehension and conviction of the offender, hostmaster General Hayes has found a way to tender this amount and he expresses regret that a larger amount cannot be paid. Negro Bank Closes Gary, Ind., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press)—The Central State Bank for Colored People, 1888 Broadway, was closed last Tuesday by State Bank Commissioner Charles W. Cump. The commissioner charges involvency in proper use of assets and operation with a lower cash reserve than that required by the state banking laws. Officials of the institution deny the charges. N.A.A.C.P.TELLS OF YEAR'S WORK WANT Work To Represent Entire Colored Population New York, N. Y., Dec. 3rd—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today issued an end of the year statement calling attention to the work of the Association, and calling upon colored Americans for support. The statement reads as follows: "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People invites the consideration of all colored Ameri- cans of the following fact: 1. Launching Who ten year sight which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other agencies have waged against Lynching has resulted in a Federal Anti-Lynching Bill being reported in the House of Representatives, which will be passed in this session of Congress if colored Americans unite in demanding its passage. In this ten year fight the Association has raised and expanded more than thirty five thousand dollars which has been used for personal investigations of lynchings, mass meetings, conferences and public matter to make the facts public; with the results that lynching in the United States has become not only a national issue in the United States but one that the entire civilized world knows about. The personal investigations of lynchings by members of the Association's staff were the only ones to be made in this country, and were often dangerous to the lives of the investigators. These investigations have once and for all exploded the 'myth' that the cause of lynching is rage. 2. Arkansas and Tulsa. The facts concerning the riots in Arkansas and in Tulsa, Oklahoma, were placed before the world. The condemned victims of the Arkansas riots, contended to die in 1919, have been saved up to the present time, and their cases have been fought through every court to the Supreme Court of the United States, before which they are now to be heard. On these cases the N. A. A. C. P. has already expended $112,290. $1,500, has thus far been raised for the victims of the Tulsa riot; their case being put before the branches of the N. A. A. G. P. and before the public through the colored and white news papers. The Association helped to fight an ordinance of the city of Tulsa which would have prevented colored people rebuilding their homes on the sites where they had stood; with the funds collected it has contributed in furnishing physical relief to the destitute the BOYCOTT BLACK SWARN RECORDS BOYCOTT BLACK SWARN RECORDS White Companies Said To Be Hostile To Colored Company New York, X. Y., Dec 5th—The unprecedented popularity attained by the Black Swan records within only a few months' time has arched the emptily of white phonograph record makers who are doing every thing to retard the growth of the colored concern, according to dealers who have been approached to ignore the demands of the public for Black Swan records. Recently a meeting of dealers was called in Philadelphia when the suggestion was made that they stop pushing the sale of Black Swan records, as all the blues and jazz records desired could be supplied by Jenson, Okeh, Columbia and Arts companies. Although the majority of dealers at the conference were white, not one expressed a desire to become a party to the scheme to boycott the Black Swan records. They did not hesitate to inform those having the conference ill charge that they were in business to supply a demand; that there was a big demand for records made by the colored company and that with them it was strictly a business proposition. APPOINTED ASSISTANT UNITED STATES DISTRICT ATTORNEY Chicago, Ht., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro res)—Jas. G. Cotter of this city has been appointed Assistant United States District Attorney for the Chicago District. Atty Cotter who received announcement from Atty-General Daughter, is a well known Chicago Barrister. Public service is not a new experience for him, he having recently served as Assistant Atty-Gen. of the State of Illinois under Mr. Edward J. Brundage, having charge of the prosecution of the violation of the Medical Practice Act. Northern Communities Thus Solve Amusement Problem The person who discovered that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy", might well have added, "but give Jack's play some wise direction." The nine hours of men and women as well as boys and girls, give the hours most to be misplaced. The thousands of Negro men and women who came north during the migration incident to the War found this to be true. For housing conditions were found to be so intolerable that an evening at home was not to be considered. Wages were good, so why not enjoy the evening where Lospiritality was dispensed? Many men did this, and when the wo men began to arrive, some of them did likewise. The trouble was that hospitality was not being dispensed in the right places or by the right kind of people. It was this discovered that awakened the Christian Church to project surveys to discover just what could be done to make life livable and its components wholesome for these souls in strange cities. One of the answers to the question was the Church Hon. And it was an answer the practical usefulness of which is with us today. And tomorrow will see even a larger number of Church Hon. ministering to the needs of countless Negro communities in crowded north-eastern cities in a way that the Church never dreamed of ministering in prewar days. For while there were some Church Hon. thus pioneering in Negro communities before the migration, the real movement started when there came to be increasing crowds of Negro men who in the evening were 'all dressed up and no where to go'. What Is a Church House? Probably there are many who enjoy the privileges of a Church. House who do not know it by that name. They do know, however, that building to which they go at night for a good time socially with men and women who, like themselves, are "grossed in priding toll all day and have no place in the few rooms called home, to entertain their friends. They also know that the gymnasium is open to them for athletic diversions and the bowling alleys are there for an hour of sport. And you do not have to ask them twice where, to go for evening classes, whether in reading and writing, or in some trade that turns field hands into efficient factory workers. Nor are they ignorant of the place where they can study the Bible and learn the everyday meaning of the Christian life. "Church House" they may not know by that name, but they know it by the service it renders. And what better definition could be desired? Morgan Community House In the autumn of 1919 the Home Missions Council asked the Baptist Church to undertake as one of its special tasks the social administration to Negro populations in northern cities. They began in Pittsburgh by taking over Kingsley House, which had for early ministered to white people, ren- marked it Morgan Community Center, in honor of General Morgan and open- Haiti Committee To Investigate Affairs Port An Prince, Halif, Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press)—The Ameri- ern army transport Argonne arrived here last Tuesday from Philadelphia, bringing the special Mhitol States Senate committee investigating the occupation of Halif, and the Dominican republic by American troops. Senator Myhill, McCormick, of Illinois, chair- man of the committee, said in a speech regarding the visit: "We have come as impartial and loyal friends to seek an economic and political basis for the future progress of Haiti and to assure means for maintaining social and administrative order peace, education and prosperity. We wish to exvence into the ways following which our peoples and their representatives can find that union, security and right and duty they have been seeking." Gen. D'Artagnane, president of the republic replied. WAS ALL ROUND STAR ATHLETE AND SINGER AT THE SOUTH CAROLINA INSTITUTE Lynwood Scott, star full back of the Chaffin University team, died here last Friday as the result of injuries received in a game that affronted against the Georgia State College team. The accident occurred so early in the game that few persons took any particular note of it. It having taken place within two minutes after the game started. The game was to have been the last home contest for the local boys who have had a most successful season, they having usually won every game they played this year. Claffin came here with equally as good a record, she having defeated all her adversaries this season. Thus both teams appeared on the grid iron Friday with a dogged determination to win. The spectators, too, were kept up to a high pitch and were expecting to witness one of the hardest battles seen here for some time. Play was started at 3:30 with Gal- State kicking off to Claflin on the lat- ter fifteen yard line. It was an au- nually high kick and when the ball handed in the arms of a Claflin play, or he allowed it to drop to the ground where it was covered by two of the local boys. It was then that ballium broke out in the ranks of the local boys. They screamed and yelled for a touch down and the pig-kin was in- trusted to the reliable "Dago" full back. On the play he rushed around the right side of the line and virtual- ly plowed his way through the Claflin players for the first score of the game. After the charge a player was seen to be stretched out on the field. It was young Scott, the indomitable full back of the visitors. Several of his teammates rushed over and tried to revive him. After a few seconds they carried him to the side line where he was worked on by several phys- icians who were present. The game continued. Dago picked the goal and shortly afterwards another touch down, was scored by the local boys and then the second quarter was begin. All this time the doctors were working faithfully over the unfortunate full back. The spectators, however, thought but little of the injured player after he was carried to the side line, they feeling that he was only slightly hurt and would shortly return to the game. But it was not for them to see this star player of the visitors get back into the game. He had been more seriously hurt than was suspected and after two minutes of play in the second quarter, word was sent to the players that Scott was dead. This an- TUSKEGEE HOLD CONFERENCE Special Reduced Rates Given On All Railroads Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press)—Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of the Tuskegee Institute, announced recently that the Thirty-first Annual Tuskegee Negro Conference will be held at the Institute, January 18th and 19th, 1922.

Some 30,000 votes went to the polls to decide on 19 bond issues, two amendments to the city Larter, one making to possible to draft a new city charter and the other to select thirteen free holders to write the charter. None of the 19 bond issues carried. Among them was an item for new colored hospital to cost $500,000 which received the Ninth large- ed vote. Colored Nominee for Commission For a long time certain forces have been trying to get a new form of city charter in order to eliminate the two council plan of government which now prevails to the detriment of Municipal progress. In the Spring a charter convention was called by the various civic organizations. A committee of 100 was formed and on it were four Negroes. Later, thirteen persons were offered as candidates by the convention and among them was Dr. J. L. Dibble, who was a representative of the local Community Service Urban League. Things were going on smoothly until two weeks prior to the day of election when the political and other factions got busy. As a result new candidates were put into the field and other tickets were fused. The original group dropped their support of the qualified colored nominee because of objections from some of his running mates. The Post, a local daily paper came to the rescue and fought for Dr. Dibble to the last. The branch of the N. A. A. C.-P and other civic groups came to the front and rallied interested in the election and of the 27 candidates in the field Dr. Dibble received 5,772 votes. Although he was not elected locally, it is considered an achievement and points to a hopeful future. DESIGNATED BY PRESIDENT Wilmington, Del., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press)—To the Members of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs: President Harding has designated the week of December 4th 10th as National Education Week. It behooves us as colored women to look into the conditions of our own schools so that every week in the year will be our educational week. Each woman, in her own community and each club should ask the questions: 1. What are you or your organization doing, and what can I do to promote the welfare of our schools, public, or private: kindergarten, primary grammar, high school, rural schools. continuation courses? 2. Are you or your organization doing anything to promote better attendance in the schools, looking to a 100 per cent attendance in the colored schools all over the country? 3. How can we make the public school a community center for all organized interests, keeping the school open and useful seven days a week, twelve months a year? 4. How can we utilize our efforts towards getting a longer school term for colored children in those sections of the country where the colored schools do not have as a term as the white schools? 5. What can we do to make the positions of teachers more desirable in rural communities, especially, and in all communities by standing behind the teacher in her work? 6. Have you a Parent-Teacher organization in your community? If not why not? If you have such an organization, is it lively, active, doing what it can to make the work of the home and the school truly co-operative? If you have no such organization, will you do your part as club women to further organization? 7. What are you and your club doing to promote interest in race literature and history? In every home the children should be taught the literature and history of their own race and in every school as well. Where co-operation with the various Boards of Education and the women's clubs is possible, books should be placed in school libraries, and teachers urged to do their part toward instilling race pride. Where such co-operation is not possible, means should be devolved to familiarize colored children with the facts about their own people. Every child in the United States, white and black, has the right to at least eight years of schooling, completed in eight years. Those who can afford to do so, should have the additional four years in high school, and a college or professional education as well. But the colored women of the country should bend every effort, clutch in her own club and community, seeing that all colored children are given all the educational advantages possible. Literacy, in the nation is decreasing, but not rapidly enough. If the Negro is to keep up in the march of progress he must begin in the primary school, and with the children, to lay the foundation for economic independence (Committee on Education, Alice Dunbar Nelson, Chairman).

The Young Men's Christian Association is determined to do a big thing during the Christmas season. There are many poor people in our city because of the unemployment condition and the stringency of money will be without anything to make them glad on the day each one of God's creatures should be happy. No organization to our knowledge is making provision for these unfortunates, so the Association is putting on a "give a basket" program on the afternoon of Christmas which falls on Sunday 25th. we are sure that this is in record with our Christianity and truly manifests the Christ spirit. There are those, of course, who say why this is the Sabbath day, to those we say read St. Matt. 12 chapter I-13 verses. This is our plan: There are friends in the city that are well acquainted with cases of distress in families and individuals, you know the need of these persons and as God will bless many with abundance, we are asking that you share with these fortunate a portion of your Christmas cheer by preparing a basket or box with a "cheer" whether large or small and bring it to the Y. M. C. A. meeting on the afternoon of Christmas. Now, is not this a fine idea? Of course you are with us to give a portion of your Christmas cheer to help cheer someone else, this is the Christ spirit and then there are those who have friends to whom you would like to present a small gift or token, we shall provide a Christmas tree for them upon which they may put their gifts to their friends. The secretary of the "Y" is to be the Santa Clause and we shall strive to make everybody happy on the date of the birth of the Christ child. Let us remind you of the big program as usual on the coming Sunday. Help Industrial Farm Boys Christmas The Willing and share the Workers of the Urban Leasing the planning to give a Christmas dinner and tree to the boys of the Industrial Farm.

(Continued from Page 1) administration of Dr. Hughes Farmers institutes are held in conjunction with the second and third quarterly con- ferences in districts where these are in tact More than 500 Negroes in a mining section in Kentucky with only a single small church was discovered by Dr. Hughes who has succeeded in establishing a second one in that region since taking office. A Negro City Missionary Society has been organized to cure for the unfortunate members of the race in Atlanta, Georgia The Methodist now have forty-nine community centers for social and community welfare work among Negroes, reported Dr. Hughes. He told of the Eleanuer Methodist Church at Jacksonville, Florida, and the picture-que and substantial development made by it. The finest community building for welfare work among Protestants in the entire country regardless of color is the Methodist community center for Negro members in Baltimore. It cost 100,000. The creation and rapid growth of Negro congregations in several parts of the country were described by Dr Hughes, including me at McKeesport, Pennsylvania, Lake Charles Louisiana, and in the latter place a church is being erected which will be equipped with gymnasium, shower baths and other paraphernula for athletic sports. In his survey of Negro communities recently formed in Pennsylvania by Negroes from the South, Dr Hughes discovered twenty five communities of Negroes in which there are no churches at all, and he is bending every effort to organize Metcalfst churches in these places. He also described the plans for a church and community center near the State school for Negroes, Scotland, Louisiana, where a large number of Metcalfst youths are in schools and have no church there commensurate with their needs. (Continued from Figure 1) ed up an institution for Negroes conducted along the modern scientific lines of social service, but with a strong religious emphasis. It is not a church but is designed to function into the work of every Negro church in the community; to be distinctly Christian but thoroughly inter-denominational. Morgan Community Center is open all the time. One may receive instruction in drawing, carpentry, music, sewing, millinery, auto mechanic, gymnastics, science and sex hygiene. There is a day nursery for babies whose mothers must work. A medical chicle ministers to the bodily ills of the poor. A Vacation Daily Bible School keeps the boys and girls under whole in fluences. There are also a playground an open forum, a gymnastium and baths. No coaxing is needed to spend an evening here. A Massachusetts Testimony A Massachusetts Testimony The old Sanford Street Free Church is a part of the union which now is known as St. John's Congregational Church and Parish House, Springfield Massachusetts. Here John Brown worshiped with the Negroes of Spring field while he was a resident there and the old "John Brown Bible" used in his day is still possessed with pride. The Church House was erected "to serve the social and practical needs of the people on the week day as well as their spiritual needs on Sunday." The House acts as a constructive agency in the building of its sets before the Negroes of the community and the city. The upper floors provide a form- mory for twelve girls, a homey refuge in a strange city. Cooking conveniences, and protection and assistance in getting employment are given to them. An excellent night school gives training in domestic science, sowing, embroidering and dressmaking. Two rooms are used as a community center for girls and women. A community center for men and boys is open from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. Games, a branch library, a music club, athletic clubs and a woman's welfare league are among the attractions of the program. A Chicago Venture The Church House of the South Park Methodist Episcopal Church in Chicago began with a store rented for $30 a month by the Chicago City Missionary and Church Extension Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1918 Dr. W. E. Quine gave his residence as a memorial to his wife. The house is used as a social center and the garage has been turned into an auto repair school with a reputation for honest work and fair prices. One NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC The Laborer's Investment Corporation is patiently waiting for the time to pay off their Xmas funds with interest. Xmas cards are now on display and it would be advantageous to make an early selection, now; it is not too early.

A COMPLETE GROCERY STORE FILMREE OP BRIDGES ASSOCIATES FIRST IN SERVICE TWENTY ONE DIE IN PLAY We doubt whether any past year has so forcibly brought the hazards of football to the Savannah sport lovers as the season which is just about to come to a close. The casualties of the present season's play have been brought right to our very doors this year by the death of young Llwood Scott, of the Claffin University team, which occurred at Thunderbolt Friday afternoon in a game against the Georgia State College. It was all unexpected, the death of this young man, for he received his injuries in the very first seriography of the game and died within twenty minutes, without ever having regained consciousness. The total casualties of the game this year have, we have been told by those who have compiled statistics on the matter, amounted to twenty and the death of young Scott adds one to this number. Football is a game of hazards and casualties of this klud are not altogether unlooked for. There are probably more than two hundred thousand American youth engaged in the game every year and when this large number is considered the casualty list, though frightful, is not unexpectedly big. The game is a strenuous one and has its risks and perils which youth must face. If it indulges in this American's most spectacular sport. The sport loving populace of Savannah and others as well deeply regret the death of young Scott and the other score of worthy young men who have been killed in the game this year. It is truly unfortunate that such a toll of life had to be made and such are the fortunes of the game and us doing as it is indulged in we may from time to time expect the records of the game to be blotted by such unfortunate happenings. Yours Scott and the other young men who have been killed in the game were for the most part school boys and they lost their lives trying to win honor and glory for their schools. It is a wonderful victory which the followers of the green have won. It has taken much of their energy during the past centuries to wage the fight which but this week has brought them honor and victory. They have fought incessantly and mightily for this day over which they are now rejoicing: they have made sacrifice upon sacrifice against terrible odds, but nothing daunted them, their hearts, their very existence lay in their freedom from the British yoke and they willingly paid the price. Liberty, freedom, the right to govern themselves was far and above every other cherished desire and they embraced every opportunity which in the slightest brought this fondest of all hopes nearer to realization. It had to come, though it required centuries of and self-sacrificing toil before it was ultimately gained by them. They gave their means and they unhesitatingly spilled their blood that their land might be free and their people become their own masters. Theirs has been a dogged fight for existence and it has come to a successful termination in an age when all down trodden people are beginning to have visions of a better day to come when justice and equity shall be more universal. But they did not gain their freedom by supinely sitting by and merely asking for it. They had to plan for it, work for it and then spill their life's blood for it. This has been the story of all down-trodden people who have eventually gained their liberty and full rights as men and it will ever be thus. Other peoples who are still being denied their rights. men, discriminated against and persecuted must look with favor upon the new estate of the Irish and wish them well. They cannot but help rejoice in the victory of the Irish and look to them for at least an encouraging word in their own fight for freedom. Negro Editors On Johnson's Rejection The action of the United States Senate in rejecting the nomination of Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia as Recorder of Dues of the District of Columbia will not be well up on the grounds of the coloured people of the United States. The announcement of Senator Watson and Harris, rocked by Democrats of Georgia that the confirmation of the nominee would be personally objectionable to them will make the failure to confirm all the more objectionable to the conservative people of the United States much as the appointment does not come within the purview of these senators. It is not with in the limits of the State of Georgia, which state they represent. Mr. Johnson has held the office before with faith to himself and with satisfaction to the people of the District of Columbia. It is the duty of the Republican leaders to see to it that the nominee is confirmed and we hope that President Warring GMhardling will nominate him and insist upon his confirmation Certainly, if a subcommittee of the senate found his nomination all right and then the full committee there can be no legitimate excuse for his rejection. We are hoping that his rejection is only temporary and that in the end he may be the Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia.—Richmond Planet. The Democratic press of our state disents with the decision of the Republican senate and calls on it for an explanation. While rejoicing at the defeat of Mr. Johnson, they cannot agree with the hypocrisy of the Republican senate when it places its rejection on the hypothesis of "senatorial courtesy." If the Johnson rejection is the rule that will govern the Republican majority in the senate, then President Harding cannot appoint a Negro to any position in the United States or elsewhere. If Tom Watson of Georgia says he objects to him. There is no need of preferring charges or investigation. If a senator can, by the mere statement of his prejudice defeat a Republican nominee by a Republican president. The explanation is too thin. Nobody believes it—the country will not accept it; and it is the duty of the electors next November to vote the Democratic ticket or any other ticket to defeat such treachery in the United States senate. Don't quit the party as Mr. Harding stands by the party organized by Lincoln and made immortal by Roosevelt—stay in the ship and seek to throw everybody overboard who do not live up to the principles of the party as enunciated by its founders—Atlanta Independent. SENATOR WATSON OBJECTS To appease "senatorial courtesy" the entire Negro race in America is denied representation. Not senatorial courtesy as affecting a large group of senators, but to please one Mr. Tom Watson from Georgia, to whom the name of Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson as Recorder of Deeds was objectionable. Watson, a Democrat and avowed Negro later, by his unfounded objection saved the entire Republican Congress to his way of thinking. He attempted to show cause why Johnson should not be confirmed, all of which were no more nor less than the outgrowth of a prejudiced mind. Not only Johnson, but any man of Negro descent would, be objectionable to this southern senator and his like. What is more significant that Watson's objection is the fact that a Republican majority who knows the standing of Mr. Johnson and understands the tactics of Mr. Watson would yield to please the latter. Thus after eight months of watchful waiting the leading and most influential political member of the Negro race has been turned down, thrown out and denied a place which, to say the least, was far beneath what he merited. Today the question as to what the Negro politician should and whether shall he turn confronts us as never before—Buffalo American. From company matters the cry has gone up, that in the case of Henry Lincoln Johnson, it was his own indirection that resulted in disappointment and humiliation to him self and the race. The American holds that the case should not be so argued. It was no reflection upon Mr. Johnson that after second thought he decided to accept appointment to so dignified a position as Recorder of Deeds. There was, and is, no reason for the contention that it was necessary for the Georgia Committee to refuse nomination for the proffered office to prove his worthiness for leadership. As the American views the matter, Lincoln Johnson, despite the fact that he may have been guilty of some improprieties was but a victim of senatorial prejudice—prejudice of the kind that frowns upon the rise of any Negro of Mr. Johnson's stamp to position of honor and influence. We need seek no further for the explanation of the failure of Mr. Johnson's confirmation than Tom Watson, Georgina's representative in the U.S. Senate. What more might Negroes reasonably expect from a man like Tom Watson? Watson told the Senate Committee that Henry Lincoln Johnson was objectionable for him, with the result that in keeping with some nonsense legal rule known as natural courtroom, the Republican Johnny Robinson automatically identified him. And with Mr. Johnson objectionable to Senator Watson2. Because the Georgia consilittee man has been charged with embezzling funds? Scarcely this, but what appears the more likely, that Mr. Johnson was objectionable for the same reason that any other progressive and courageous race leader is objectionable to a Georgia red-neck.—Pittsburgh American. If Johnson is unit for the place, the Republicans should have so found and so reported, a Such a finding would have eliminated Johnson—the man—but it would have given to the country a legitimate and perfectly plausible reason for the withholding of confirmation. The President could select another nominee. But nothing is given as to warrant even the slighest presumption that Johnson is unit. We have simply the senatorial courtesy extended a Democrat who, for the mere asking, can prevent the Republican party from distributing jatroonage. The Negroes of this country will be slow/ indeed. In subscribing to the theory that a Democrat is entitled to sufficient courtesy to block the partisan wheel of the Republican party. President Harding will have to do better than he has done. The case passes right back to him. He must fortify himself and his party against a repetition of this senatorial courtesy. He must appoint Johnson during recess; and if he is not confirmed, he must appoint him. Roosevelt handled a similar situation, and he was applauded, for his courage. President Harding may have told his senators the desired Johnson as the Recorder; and then, again, he may have indicated that he would name Johnson with the understanding that the senate could do as it saw, fit. Suppose we exhibit a fairer spirit. Suppose the President, through the party leaders, informs the Negroes of what he intends to do against patronage. This would be fair to the Negroes. It would do no harm which not already been done. It would be the "fair play" polite so much respected by all Americans. Why practice subterfuge when frankness is so much more desired? If the party leaders object to Johnson, and have reason which would be accepted by the American people, let that reason, and not senatorial courtesy to underserving Democrats, be recorded. Even colored people, with their blind, monotonous partion on loyalty—mere cofed people—deserve better treatment than was accorded them by way of senatorial courtesy to the Democratic senator from Georgia. HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON'S BETREIMENT Henry Lincoln Johnson risked his all in permitting his name to remain before the United States Senate for confirmation or rejection, as Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, after charges of espionage had been preferred against him by those who opposed his confirmation in the Senate. All that he risked in that fight has been lost and today he stands stripped of all honor that goes with the political leadership of a great treacher If Mr. Johnson's defeat affected only himself the sympathy that is felt for him personally now in the hour of his reverses, would not be mingled with the condemmation that is now hurled at him for lack of manhood to save his race at least from the humiliation that comes to it through the defeat at the hands of the senate of the United States, of its foremost political leader, because of the charge of embezzlement, and which charge must have been sustained at least to the extent of netting the Senate in its almost unanimous defeat in rejecting his objection to. The rejection of Johnson for the three pillows, will henceforth confer the elevated people of the eaing country, who have long since grown above and beyond that point of calous manhood that permits a race to remain indifferent to its future when the integrity of its chosen and accepted leaders are attacked and the strongest foundation upon which the race is now building is shaken almost to the breaking point by the weakness of leaders lacking in sufficient courage and manhood to sacrifice their own personal aspirations to save the honor of the race that has shown them long years of preferment. The same Republican party through whose representatives in the Senate Johnson's nomination has been rejected for the want of sufficient defense to purge it of the charge of am And now, as Henry Lincoln Johnson retires from political leadership of his people, that same people will demand recognition of the better and stronger young men now forging to the front, not alone in the Republican party, but in all the great political units seeking to play their part in the government of this great country of ours and in which the Negro will not be denied the right to participate and to play his part honestly and intelligently.—Philadelphia Tribune. WHY JOHNSON WAS NOT CONFIRMED The Senate has finally refused to confirm the appointment of Henry Lincoln Johnson to the position of Recorder of Deeds. This comes as no surprise as this gentleman was an easy target for the fire of his enemies. His past actions did not stand the close scrutiny of rabid southerners who are constantly searching for the weak points of the black people. That Johnson was not appointed militates severely against the race. We suffer more grievously than does Mr. Johnson as the stigma of unfitness to hold responsible position is thrown upon all who are affiliated with the black race. When Lincoln Johnson came to Chicago in the interest of Governor Lorenzo Culver, campaign, he was praised by all of our papers and the black people worshipped this man, who seemed to be a political hero. Laier his actions brought the condemnation of the press upon him and he fell like Lucifer, the Son of the Morning from his lofty and sublime pedestal of public respect and admiration. It was established to the satisfaction of the thinking public that Johnson did not possess the sterling qualities of leadership that the black people had hoped for and the rumble of disapproval was heard even in Washington. During the presidential campaign after Mr. Harding was nominated Johnson still retained the political dictatorship of the black people and again did he commit acts of misfiance and nonfiance that filled the white politicians and intelligent black people with disgust and shame. It was claimed that the handling of the funds did not satisfy the different committees and that notorious inability and willingness to act squarely had messed up the Jim Crow speakers bureau. Johnson left Chicago and set up in Washington what was known as a bureau of legislative relief for our people. This bureau was from all ostensible evidences the rendezvous of job seekers and nothing tangible in the way of seeking legislative relief upon records Johnson's attitude convinced the member-of-able race that he was seeking a job for himself more than relief for his people, thus he again was hurled into disdain and ridicule. Johnson was, both pregnable, and vulnerable to his enemies and life whole life was uncovered by the scheming malicious senator from Georgia. He has been put in the balance and found wanting, and in the finding pot of American affairs he proved himself all done. It is now in order for President Harding, since his declaration of political equality for black people, to appoint another black man whom Tom Watson and the other prejudiced southerners cannot yell at and destroy. Let Harding pick out a real man and let him represent us men of vision and character. Whom will Harding apoint in the place of the pitiable Johnson?—Chicago Whip.

Extradition Extradition of col- orced men from hori- len to southern states where probable lynching qawled them has been successfully opposed by the legal fighters of the Association. This has set a precedent in northern states, for requiring an assurance of fair-trial in the south before extradition is granted. 4. Ku Klux Klan Exposure. The Association began the exposure of the activities of the Ku Klux Klan and cooperated with the New York World in its exposure. The Association's legal victories for the year include the complete vindication and release of pickets who had been arrested for parading before a New York theatre and distributing leaflets warning the New York pub against the Ku Klux Klan propaganda of the "Birth of a Nation" film. 5. Pan-African Congress. The Association promoted the Second Pan-African Congress with 110 delegates and 1000 visitors from 20 countries and 11 states of the United States. Resolutions of the Congress were sent to and acknowledged by the League of Nations in Geneva. 6. Haiti. Efforts were continued for the liberation of the black republic of Haiti and the Association cooperated in employing counsel who attended the hearing of the recent Senate investigating committee in Washington and accompanied the Senate committee which is now in Haiti. "Upon this record the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People stands. It feels justified in appealing to every colored man and woman in the United States for funds to enlarge and continue that work." "Do colored Americans want that work to go on? The answer lies with them. From many individuals and almost without exception from the colored press the Association has had magnificent cooperation. More, however, is wanted. "The Association wants The Sinews of Peace. Peace has to be paid for. Will colored Americans back up the Association in bringing it about?" "The sinners of peace are Members and Money. Those who give money to the Association may designate the purpose, to which it is applied such as legal defense, publicity, advancement of legislation, etc. Or they may give to the general fund which covers the entire field of activities of the Association! "We do not want our work to be by a few for the few. We want it to represent the entire colored population of the United States and we want the entire colored population of the United States to support this work." SPORTING NEWS IN HARD BATTLE, 6 TO 4 Noville, Tennessee, Dec. 4th (Associated Nextr Press)—In Thanksgiving afternoon in the Southern League Ball Park, Noville, Tennessee, before a large attendance of football enthusiasts, the Morehouse College Tigers defeated the Fisk Bull dogs, 60. This annual battle is supremacy between the Tigers and the Bull dogs was played in a sea of mud and water with a steady moment of rain during three quarters of the game. The rain however seemed to increase the brilliance of that playing of the two teams. Neither had tested the cup of defeat and both fought with a determination to finish with a clean slate and the title of Southern champions. Captain "Tutty" Johnson of Flek won the toss and received the kick while Captain Tayles of Morehouse chose to defend the North goal. At the blowing of the referee's whistle one of the greatest games of hard, clean football ever witnessed in the South was on. Flek with the hall on her own 25 yard line immediately opened up with an offensive end runs and delayed line hacks, only to find that they could neither go around the Morehouse ends nor penetrate their line, and after making the first down, kicked to Morehouse's 25 yard line. With the ball on her own 40 yard line, Morehouse started a march down the field which was only halted on Fisk's 23 yard line. Here on a delayed pass with no one between him and the goal, Harr, Morehouse left end, slipped and fell in the mud for a loss and the ball went over on the fourth down. After this both teams began to play a kicking game—taking no chances on the fourth own and usually kicking on the third. Morehouse had the edge in the kicking duel between Gayles and Johnson. The referee whistle brought the game to a close with the ball in Morehouse's possession and the Fish reaffirm fighting rapidly to stay off another timeout. Both spectators, and officials were loud in their praises of the play of both teams and the manner in which they conducted themselves. The officals were capable and efficient, and the game went off smoothly and without delay. The Morehouse team this year has proved itself a remarkable defensive team, only one time has any college team arrived the hall within its thirty yard line, this hobor going to Fisk. The only scores recorder against the team were made in the first game of the season by Camp Benning. While the Morehouse varsity was no siding the Fisk Bulldogs Thanksgiving Day, the Morehouse reserves were tanning the Knox Institute team, at Athens, Ga., 19-0. FLAFLINS' HILL SACK FATALLY INJURED (Continued from Page 1) nouncement was made to the spectators and the game called. It is not known exactly how Scott was injured but the concussion of apinlon is that in the first scrimmage he attempted a tackle and in the general rumble was knocked in the solar plexus region, the pneumogastric nerve being either paralyzed or severed When it was seen that life was almost extinct a call was made on the fire department for the pulmator and it was rushed out in record time and every effort was made to revive the young man, but all was in vain. Young Scott, known among his school mates as "Lyn," was about 25 years old and lived at Sumter, S. C., where his body was carried the next day, being accompanied by President Wrille of the Georgia State College and Prof. Pearson of Claflin Valley, who was in the city for the game. Scott had been a member of the Claflin team for about two years and was conceded to be the star player of that aggregation. He was also a member of the college base ball and tennis teams. It is said that prior to going to Claflin he was a student at Voorhees Institute, Denmark, S. C. It will be recalled that on the night prior to the game in which he lost his life, Scott was the leading figure in the Claflin quartet which won the singing contest at St. Philip A. M. R. church, against the Gary State College quartet. He sang second tenor. It is said that he is survived by his father, B. W. Scott of Sumter, S. C., one brother and two sisters. He was well known in this city where it is claimed he once worked at a drugstore. His friends here had planned to give him a little social when it was inscribed that Claflin would play in this city and all arrangements for the affair had been made, but his infinitely death forced this affair to be called off.

ATLANTA LAW FAILS TO PASS Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 7th (Associated Negro Press)—An interesting story lies behind the recent attempt of a local councillor named Sims to make a law forbidding white and colored from ever, even occasionally, worshipping at the same church, or preaching to or teaching each other. This was to prevent Northern visitors from speaking in Negro meeting places, and was chiefly inspired by the fact that Governor Allen of Kansas, a member of the N. A. A. C. P., had spoken to a mixed audience of white and colored, when he was in Atlanta. The ordinance was passed, but Margar Key was influenced by white preachers to yet it, whereupon Complaint Sims, who introduced it, called the Mayor an "ass." Sims then slitted the attack from churches to Negro colleges, where northern whites teach, and specifically charge that white children (sons and daughters of white northern teachers) are helped taught in Clark University. The sling waved hot in the dailies for more than a week, and the following is the contribution of the Contributing Editor of The A. N. P. who happened to be in Atlanta at the time: "To the Daily Papers of Atlanta." Ga. I have just made a special trip and a personal inspection and I am prepared fully to confirm the statements of Councilman Sims that white children are in the Ne gro schools here I have been them Clark University and all the other Negro private schools here, and am prepared to prove my case. And I want to ask the all of Councilman Sims, and all other people, in making such a thing as I am prepared to prove, impossible in the future. Are we really interested in the fact? Shall the blood of our white race sit side by side with the blood of the Negro race in these schools? Lam a sojourner here, but I can be reached by any interested person for the present at St. South Sixteenth Street, Ollivantingham, Ala. And if I need a protesting Lawlill prove it. That I found white children in all of these Negro private schools.—But their mothers are colored. This is the real evil. Can we not get an ordinance to combat it? (Signed) William Pleckens.
