CRITICISING REPUBLICAN SURRENDER OF LYXCH BILL
New York, Dec. 22—Replying to a letter from George B. Christian, Jr. secretary to President Harding, in which blame for the failure to enact the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is laid on the Democratic fillbuster, James Wetton Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, charged the Republican majority in the eserate with "tukewairiness" in a letter made public today.
Mr. Johnson's letter in full is as follows:
December 21, 1922
Mr. George B. Christian, Jr. secretary to the President.
Washington, D. C.
- My Dear Mr. Christian; I wish to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 5th. Will you allow me to say in reply that the feeling of the colored people over the failure to pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is one of more illogical disappointment. It is a feeling of disgust and resentment.
The colored people of the country, of course, realize the seriousness of the obstacle placed in the way of the bill by the Trutching tactics used by the Southern Democrats. But colored citizens also know that the Republicans in the Senate exerted almost no aggressive effort; that they practically saume and allowed the Democrats to assume responsibility for the failure of the bill. If the Republicans had been in actual collision with the Democrats to have the latter pull their the-twist-out of the fire the appearances could not have been worse.
The colored people of the country expected and had the right to expect more than this of the large Repean can majority, in the senate. The Republican leadership really accepted defeat at the opening of the fight. Colored people and many white people as well feel that if the Republicans had been sufficiently concerned and had had the courage to stand firm, public sentiment throughout the country would have rallied to the mand and
CATHOLIC
CHURCH SENDS
OUT LETTER
Movement To Build A New Institution
Baltimore, Md., Dec. 27—(Associated Negro Press)—The Catholic Church in a circular letter sent out this week by A. C. Monohan, secretary of the trustee board of the new Cardinal Gibbons Institute to be erected on the Tuskegee plan at Ringe, St. Mary's Court, Md., on a 200 acre site. Say, "The Cardinal Gibbons Institute is a movement to fulfill in part our duties as Catholics toward the colored race. It will be an institution under Catholic amples located in the midst of the largest group of Catholic Negroes in the country, devoting its efforts toward training Catholic Negro leaders to work for and among their own race.
"What have we already done for the 250,000 Catholic Negroes in the United States? We have eight special schools of more than local importance, and about 125 small parochial schools serving local communities. The total value of all our Catholic Negro school property is approximately $500,000, while there are Baptist Negro schools valued at $5,000,000; Metropolitan at $3,004,000; Episcopalian at $2,500,000; Congregational at $2,000,000; and Friends at $1,600,000. These valuations do not include the so called "independent" institutions such as Hampagna, Tuskegee, Tisk, Shaw, etc., which is supported in part by contributions from Protestant churches. Such compariens do not look well for us," says the circular.
The late Cardinal Gibbons furnished the money to purchase the site. The Colored Catholics of Washington and vicinity have contributed sufficient funds to carry out preliminary work. 5250064 is now needed for immediate building, and for current expenses for the first school year. The board of trustees include such well known colored folk as Lucien Clarke, Judge Reht. Terrell. Miss Nannie Burroughs, all of D. C.; Gonza Wade, Malcolm, Md., and George S. Ralph, of Baltimore.
SAVANNAH, GA., THURSDAY DECEMBER 28, 1922
Colored America may well look with pride on the achievements of 1922. It has been the greatest year of racial achievement. The millions within the ranks have marched forward, and their unquestioned tread has shaken the world into careful observation. In all avenues of endeavor, there has been more than an awakening; there has been steady progress. The outstanding features of the forward march have been the wide-spread understanding with which it has been accomplished, and the unfinishing determination that animates the people everywhere. Obstacles have been turned into triumphs and failures into success. Timidity and fear are unknown quantities. sacrifices are accepted as blessings and persecutions are held aloft as beacon lights. "The Negro Faces America" indeed, and also the world resolve highly to call on into the Harbor of Opportunity on the "Rising Tide of Color"
Political ....
The complexity of world affairs is being studied by the people. Reading the same publications along with the rest of the nation amplified with special contributions by sympathetic writers in all parts of the world, listening to lectures from returned travellers, and watching the signs of the times. Colored America has knowledge and vision on world conditions. Particular attention is given to the struggles, aspirations and achievements of the darker peoples of
CHRISTMAS DAY WITH THE POOR
Christmas time meant much for several groups of less fortunate children in and around the city, made so by thoughtful and sympathetic workers, whose appeal for assistance met ready response from many sources.
Social Service Federation
Under direction of Miss Virginia Hodges, many poor persons were provided with articles for Christmas dinner, and to tide over several days, and at the same time supplying the needs of the smaller ones, and all were caused to fully feel the real Christmas spirit.
Yanacraw Free Kindergarten
This work begun by some of the workers of the Urban League is being conducted by the Yanacraw Kindergarten Association and led by Miss Cornelia McDowell, Mrs. Z. M. DesVerney and other ladies! In connection with the free kindergarten for little tots, each Sunday a large group of boys and girls are instructed in Bible lessons at the center on Joachim street. Last Sunday afternoon the center was enlivened by nearly a hundred little ones who were made happy by being remembered by Santa Claus. The ladies who are conducting this work are not receiving the support and encouragement that they finally deserve. They are never on dress parade, but in a quiet and modest way they are moulding the lives of scores of Yanacraw children for good.
Juvenile Farm
The boys at this farm have expressed themselves that they only wish that Christmas would come every week. The untiring and faithful matron, Mrs. Rachel Moore with a New royal friends solicited many articles to make these unfortunate boys happy. On Christmas day they were given all of the trimmings to make a boy's heart glad. The well laden table in the mess hall was covered with good things to eat, and with toys for the small boys. A practical address was made to the boys by Rev. John Q. Adams. The boys rendered heartily several songs that made the heart feel glad. Mrs Moore has made quite a sacrifice in behalf of these boys to whom she is devoting her life. Through her efforts the County Commissioners are frequently making additions to cause the work to be more efficient. The Rev. Mr. Royal is now assisting her in the management of the boys.
Several ladies from the city assisted Mrs. Moore in preparing the dinner for the boys, among them being Mrs. Hat the Holly, Miss M. L. Jackson, Mrs. Daisy Lewis, Mrs. Florence A. Esteg

the world. Africa, the fatherland of America's colored population of 15,000,000, has taken front rank in consideration, for the political entanglements and oppression in certain sections as well as the stipendous resources and future possibilities. Africa is more ridiculed; it is loved. England's darker millions in India, the millions in China, Japan, and South America all afford field for observation and comparison. The opportunity is not being lost; it is embraced. Political conditions in the United States have experienced marvelously radical changes during the past year, so far as colored America is concerned. An unquestioned ally of the Republican party from the time of enfranchement, this year's elections in all sections of the country have revealed an unprecedented spirit of independence which has been to the profit of the Democratic party in the North, but is not to be construed as being in the least sympathetic with the beliefs and methods of the Democratic party of states South. Concentration of hope centered in two measures before Congress, the Liberian Loan, and the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, both of which passed the House of Representatives but failed in the United States Senate. This condition of surrender to Democratic minority tactics has disturbed the pulse and dampened the enthusiasm of colored Republican leadership while on the other hand it has spurred the masses of the people to resourcelful political thinking. At least ten colored citizens in northern states have been elected to places in state legislatures, one in New York, a Democrat, and the others Republican. President Harding has been unsuccessful in having colored appointees confirmed by the Senate, except in two instances, and there has been much criticism throughout the group against political compromise and official segregation. Colored political leadership at present is lacking in statesmanship that is able to get effective nationwide results and demonstrates the absolute necessity of having in both the House and the Senate racial representation.
Haiti and Santo Domingo. West Indian Island Republics under American domination, have been thoughtfully studied in this country. Study of these republics, aside from the complicating question of right or wrong of United States intervention.
Look Out For The Swindler
Special to The Tribune:
To the members of the Masonic
lodge in Georgia, and elsewhere.
The Grand Master of Masons A. F. and A. M., desire to call your special attention to a fake traveling under the name of Thomas as a member of Magnolia Lodge No. 57, Tifton, Ga., claiming to be in all kinds of distress. He tells persons that he has seen me and that I have helped him and sent him to them, when as a matter of fact I have not seen him, he keeps out of my sight. He worked Atlanta during Christmas week. He may be in your city or community now or in a few days. I think such men ought to be turned up to the law. He is also working the Pythians as he goes. His trick is to get out about midnight and go to members with his unwelful stories and that he must leave town and must have help, etc.
This to again, as I have done time and time again, to warn all members of our fraternity not to assist any one until you can get in touch with the lodges to which they say they belong or with me, and under no circumstances must we assist persons fleeing from justice.
On rfrateral societies should set their faces against this class of dead beats roving up and down the earth.

Heiress Sued By Husband For Dowry
New York, Dec. 26—Mrs. Lelia M. Wilson, daughter of Mine C. J. Walker was sued in the Supreme Court yesterday for a parcel of real estate and $10,000 cash by her husband, Dr. Wiley M. Wilson, a physician of 108 West 156th street Dr. Wilson alleges this lain part of the dowry promised him by his wife, who, he says, inherited $1,000,000 from her mother three years ago. Mrs. Wilson has entered a general denial.
along with Cuba, Porto Rico, the Central America and South America republics have seemed to offer unusual economic opportunities for sympathetic action and development. The State Department appointed Captain Napoleon B. Marshall to a position in the American Legation, Port au Prince, Halft; and there are at present at least half a dozen business ventures organized by colored Americans for the purpose of promoting the South, all of which have promising possibilities, and one of which is a line of ocean going steamships. Through exchange in reading and travel colored America has learned with enthusiasm that the people to the South of this republic are brothers of kind, in numerous instances; that color discrimination is an unpracticed art except where introduced by whites of the South, and the achievements in the field of business as well as along other lines promise to produce results that will be both profitable and satisfying.
Economic
Colored America is in the midst of unprecedented industrial opportunity, and this is not excepting the unusual demands of World War times. Prosperity has been restored to the industrial world, and, largely because of the stringent immigration laws, labor is greatly in demand. So great has become the openings for colored labor
MASONS HOLD JOINT INSTALLATION

The officers of these lodges were installed by the Grand Secretary, assisted by several of the past masters. Prior to the installation the Past Master's degree was conferred on four of the newly elected worshipful masters. Despite the one hundred and twenty officers to be installed everything was conducted with clock like precision and consumed but a short time.
After the installation cheerful remarks were made by the several worshipful masters. One of the features was the presenting of the four oldest past masters of the city who spoke entertainingly. The grand secretary gave a few historical facts relative to the early organization of Masoury and the legal status of our jurisdiction. These facts were eagerly received by the members.

Turks Lay Plans For World Leadership
Constanthople, Dec. 26 (Crusader Service)—The abolition of sheiks and the separation of the Sultanate from the Caliphate are not isolated measures. They are part of sweeping religious reforms that are being carried out by the Angora Assembly with a view to gyrilifying Islam and laying the groundwork for an immense, world wide struggle against white domination of the colored races and the Moslem peoples.

After Sunday, the First African Baptist church, Franklin square, one of the largest churches in membership in the denomination and which is claimed by many to be the oldest Negro Baptist church in America will be without a pastor. For one hundred and thirty-four years, this church has fought its battles within its walls, has weathered the storms and has emerged unscratched, but at last and with much regret, it joins the ranks of the churches with divorced pastors. As we can remember it, and we can remember some years back, the First church was so harmoniously conducted that it proudly boasted of its pastors being able to heat their life-work with in its consecrated walls.
Sec. Johnson Writes Senator Frelinghuysen
New York, Dec. 25—Proposal by Republican Senators to institute commission for the purpose of investigating lypching in the United States, has elected a sharp letter to Senator Frelinghuysen, author of the resolution, from James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in which notice is served that a substitute for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill will not be acceptable to colored people.
Mr. Johnson's letter asserts that the essential facts concerning lynching in America are known throughout the world, that a commission to "investigate" will be interpreted only as a plan to delay action and to "kill the nation and the Nearby with false hope. The letter in full is as follows:
"December 21, 1922
"Hon. Joseph S. Prellinghuysen,
United States Senator,
Washington, D. C.
My dear Senator Frolinghuysen?
"I wish to confirm my telegram of today as follows:
"Your letter with enclosure received. Have given the matter careful study. Am writing you giving reasons why we do not consider proposed measure adequate. I request that you delay action until you receive my letter."
"I have carefully examined your proposed Joint Resolution establishing a commission for the purpose of conducting a general inquiry into the subject of lynchings in the United States, including the number occurring and the causes thereof.
"We would interpose no active opposition to any steps leading toward the abolishment, of the crime of lynching, but the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in this case as in a half dozen similar proposals in the past is unable to see any necessity whatsoever for such a commission, nor can we endorse the proposed measure as a substitute for the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Such a commission as you propose could gather only statistics and facts such as have already been presented by this Association and other agencies and which have been repeatedly and at great length read into the Congressional Record, where they are available to the United States Senate as well as to other citizens.
"The essential facts in regard to lynching are well known and undisputed. The gathering of such facts for an additional year would have no appreciable effect upon the question. We would, therefore, view this commission plan, with its year of investigation, only as a further delay to the one thing we believe to be essential in the circumstances, and that is legislation giving the Federal Government jurisdiction where states fail, as they have failed in the past thirty five years, to secure to persons accused of crime trial by DNA process of law, or to prosecute and punish members of mobs.
"This commission plan, therefore, seems calculated only to delay action or lull the nation and the Negro with false hopes.
"The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will not be actively interested in a commission to investigate Lynching. Rather, we insist upon a revision of the Senate rules of procedure and the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
"Yours very truly,
(Signed) "James Weldon Johnson
Secretary"

(Continued from Page 1) that even at this winter period, there is now in progress a new exodus from the South. Observation in the great railway centers leading from the South discloses in this winter season that thousands are coming North and finding their way into industrial fields. It is opportune and important to state that the present migration augers serious possibilities for the Spring of 1923, when the opportunities, as well as the demands will be greatly increased North as well as South. The migration of 1017 and 1018 created a new consideration of the better class of whites in the South for industrial and educational betterment, but the continued feeling of unsafeness, the unabatement, of lynchings, distranchement and various forms of oppression, serve to keep up the desire to move somewhere North, where additional problems are created for the pioneer residents of the northern sections, but in the face of industrial opportunities and thoughts of larger freedom, seem for the present to be beyond control.
The increased colored population of the North has caused the American Federation of Labor to give careful study to the subject, and in its basic law there is supposed to be no discrimination; and yet on the other hand, there are a number of crafts in the North in which it is absolutely impossible for colored workers to become members. This kind of discrimination has had a tendency to embitter workers against labor unions, and has created wide interest in the plan of the "Open Shop." In fact, the "Open Shop" advocates are the largest employers of colored workers, and in many instances, the most notable of which of course is the United States Steel Corporation, the treatment has been so fair, and the opportunities so encouraging, that the workers have steadfastly refused to come under the banner of unionism. The Industrial Workers of Unionism. Have, with their radical propaganda, sought to encourage colored membership. Their success has been only nominal but their propaganda continues. The Communists from their far away headquarters in Russia, have, it is learned on high authority, helped to finance propaganda and movements calculated to embitter colored workers against the so-called "Capitalistic Class," as well as against the government itself. In the face of certain conditions they are able to present convincing arguments, but thus far they have had but little effect on the masses. However, the gravity of the situation is recognized, and counter movements and activities have been launched by the more conservative who, through wise counsel and education hope to bring about a state of affairs based on practical possibilities and sympathetic understanding that will redown for all time to the benefit of the great and increasing army of colored industrial workers.
"Triumvirate of Great
This year marks the dedication of the estate of Frederick Douglas, anti-slavery agitator, as an eternal shrina to nurture the hopes of colored America. The occasion was one of national significance, and was attended by thousands from all sections of the country. The care of the estate is under the direction of a group of women headed by Mrs. Mary B. Tulbert of Buffalo, N. Y., and their ability to free the place from debt beautify it, and dedicate it to the inspirational benefit of the people, marks a real triumph in racial achievement.
A magnificent monument was dedicated to the memory of Booker T. Washington at Tuskegee Institute this year. The monument was erected with funds from colored America, the funds collected under the direction of Dr. Emmett J. Scott, who for twenty one years co-operated in the development of Tuskegee Institute. The event which was attended by both groups of Americans from all sections of the country, emphasizes further the growth of appreciation and gratitude within the race.
The death of Colonel Charles Young of the United States Army, a graduate of West Point Academy called for a national memorial observance on his birthday, March 12, which surpassed in significance and scope, any previous similar event ever held in America within the group. Colonel Young died in Nigeria, West Africa, and the War Department has arranged for the remorial of his remains to this country where it will be interred with military honors in the national burial ground of the military dead, in Arlington Cemetery, Virginia, outside of Washington. President Harding, General Pershing, Secretary of War Weeks and others paid notable tribute to Colonel Young. The request for the memorial was made by The Associated Negro Press, and was heartily endorsed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other organizations. The memorial will probably be made an annual event.
Abramham Lincoln Memorial
The national memorial in Washing-
ton.
ton as a tribute to the life and deeds of Abraham Lincoln, was dedicated this year. There were only three speakers for the occasion, including President Harding and Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute. The event was international in scope, and Dr. Moton delivered an address of genuine interest. The occasion was marred by an effort to segregate colored guests, which was resented by a majority, who left the assemblage in disguise.
Newspapers The Voice
There is a generally accepted opinion that the voice of colored America today, as of white America, is most audible through their press. Never before have the newspapers held such a commanding position, nor have they ever before had such a high standard of news and opinion as well as circulation and commercial business. There are two publications recently from the press, both written by white authors, that deal with the growth and power of the press for colored America. One, the "Voice of the Negro," by Prof. Robert T. Kerlin; the other "The Negro Press in the United States," by Frederick G. Detweiler. Added to these important productions, as a vital treatise on race adjustment in America must be "The Negro in Chicago," a publication of 900 pages dealing with the problems in the frankest form, and impartially; the study covering a period of two years. Magazines of national circulation have this year unusual consideration to stories and articles dealing with colored America. A number of the fiction stories have been reduced to book form, and are having a wide circulation. Daily newspapers in all sections of the country have been more liberal in their placing the better side of colored America before the reading public. A number of the Metropolitan dailies have colored writers on their staff, probably the most important instance being Lester Walton, an experienced journalist, who is a staff writer on the New York World.
Religious
Denominational divisions continue, but are growing more and more covalent each year. All of the great denominations accept the belief, that, after all, "In unity there is strength". The common enemy of prejudice and the altogether too obvious stance of white American Christianity that falls down a the color line, places a task upon religious leaders as well as affords a militant opportunity for cooperation along helpful lines. The Federated Churches of Christian America, while always working in the interest of general advancement, have seen the importance of more officially recognizing the problem, and Dr. George E. Haynes, of New York, has been made an executive ingest that big field.
It is most encouraging to note the renewed interest in education for colored America being taken by all the great religious divisions, including the Catholics. The Methodist Episcopal church heads the list in the amount appropriated and expended, the same being between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000. The African Methodist Episcopal church has been enthusiastic in the erection of a new Shorter Hall, at Wilberforce, Ohio, to take the place of the original building destroyed by fire. The building when completed with all equipment will cost more than $300,000, and demonstrates that colored America has more than arrived at the awakening to the value of education. The Episcopals, Baptists, Presbyterians, Congregationalists and Catholics are all devoting, thousands of dollars and developing remarkably efficient leadership of a high order of intelligence and spirituality for the betterment and progress of colored America.
The Young Men's Christian Association and the Young Women's Christian Association have shown spendid growth for 1922, and the national leadership of these organizations centered in New York. Is de-erving of unstinted prais and cooperation.
The death of Dr. C. D. Morris, of Little Rock, Ark. for more than twenty-five years President of the National Baptist Convention, produced a vacancy that stirred Baptists from one end of the country to the other. The Los Angeles, Cal., session of the convention being cancelled because of the railroad strike in the summer; a session was called during November in St. Louis, Mo., where a number of the most affine men of the denomination were presented for consideration. After due deliberation Dr. Lacey Klig Williams, of Chicago, pastor of the Olivet Baptist church, with a membership of 10,000, was chosen President. This automatically removes the head of the church to Chicago, where Dr. Williams will remain as pastor of his present church. The convention voted unanimously to reunite the two factions, which have been divided for several years, and it is expected that 1023 will see important results in this respect.
Colored America is religious at heart, but not as much in fact as in the days of the forefathers. There are two reasons, principally, advanced
for this, first, the ministry has not kept up in intelligent progress with the needs of the people; second, there are so many evidences of American religious hypocrisy that many people remain away from denominational influences and worship within their homes. Nevertheless, there never was a time when the history of the race showed the churches were more prosperous or achieved better result.

Education
The better white south, where the masses of colored America live, is taking a lively interest at present in education. School buildings are being enlarged and rebuilted; terms are being lengthened and teachers are being paid better wages. It is progress; but it is not enough. It is still the theory in most places of the South that colored America should have only a circumscribed education; that high schools and colleges, regardless of taxation requirements, are only for white youths. Gradually the convincing justice of an educated citizenry regardless of color, is dawning upon the South, and there are outspoken advocates for larger opportunities who are listened to with respect, and the blatant mouthings of destructionists are falling on deaf ears.
The colleges and universities conducted by and for colored America are all crowded beyond capacity. There is a thirst for knowledge that both gratifies and amazes. The situation remarkable in the face of the every day fight for recognition in the world's work, but on goes the battle with books, and each year sees an increased number of graduates from all the schools. Northern colleges and universities, where students are admitted solely on merit, continue to have large quotes of students from the group Harvard college, where for years the outstanding principle has been educational equality, has had recent flurries of seemingly changed conditions, but life is proclaimed by those with authority to know, that at heart, Harvard maintains its illustrious traditions.
Howard University, in the District of Columbia, and Lincoln University in Pennsylvania, have recently been admitted into the select circle of American schools of higher learning where graduates from these institutions have the same standing for postgraduate work as those coming from any other American colleges. This notable educational advancement.
Commercial Progress and Business Colored America has taken to the field of business with a relish that brings inspiration and, cheer. Banking, Insurance, Manufacturing, Real Estate, General Merchandising, and indeed, contact with Wall Street itself, are among the present achievements of colored America facing and overcoming the addressing obstacle of 1922—that bids fair to turn upside down, the theories that in the promotion of commercial enterprises the moral has worthful limitations. Present achievements in these important fields derive to the world that the limitations have been the result of studied handling. Colored America has been held back from the opportunity of getting commercial knowledge and contacts but the opportunities and needs have become so great within the race itself that through the force of circumstance alone, these lines have been developed to a most surprising extent in the last year. With all the results to date, the fields are yet virgin soil; they have been barely tapped, so to speak. Confidence, more general cooperation, vision and hard work will produce results in the future that will be most gratifying. Aside from the standard professions, the commercial field is making the big opening for the college bred man and woman. With 15,000,000 people to supply with all of the necessities of life, and administer to their welfare and happiness in the multitude of ways afforded by commercial progress, at once produces a picture for the imagination that stir the soul to action. In the commercial field, here are contending forces debating the wisdom of using all colored American capital, all white capital, or a combination of each. There are achievements in each way that are abiding and successful. Pride, sentiment, and even hate enter into the equation, but in the last analysis what colored America needs and should desire most are Results—being guided by experience, efficiency and common sense in keeping the standards both high and just.
Amusements
In the field of amusements and popular entertainment, colored Americas has had a banner year. Not only has there been a great wave of popular ar proval for the public and press, but more than ever before, there has been financial success. "Shuffle Along," a musical comedy, with Miller and Lyle Sissle and Blake as the stars, and Lottie Gee as the feminine star, played for a year and a quarter on Broadway, New York, following with several months in Boston, and going
strong at present indefinitely in Chicago. They have aroused the theatre public to a clean and clear cut vision of talent, colored American feminine beauty and charm, and clean mithmaking. "Strut Miss Lizzie," with Creamer and Layton as stars, had successful runs in New York and Chicago, while "Lizza" a new effort at the Daily Theatre, New York, with Miller and Anthony, as the chief fun admisters, is receiving splendid recognition. Charles Gilliflin noted actor with "The Emperor Jones," continues en tour, to bring great credit to the drama, and incidentally to the race. Both theatrical and moving picture producers, who have, by the way, the minimum of personal prejudice but who are somewhat guided in their considerations by popular whims, in America, are reaching the point where they are really "stepping out" in considering the talent of colored America. They have a world of resources to draw from, and are delightful with the earnestness and spirit with which the performers are devoted to their work. High ideals clean living and hard work hold great promise in the amusement field for colored America.
Phonographic Reproduction has offered another new field for colored America. It is no guess to state that much of the development in this field has been due to the marvelous success of the Pace Phonograph Company of New York, headed by Harry I. Pace, a business executive of enviability. Pace paved the way with such rapidity and zeal, that old line concerns that formerly refused to give colored America a "look in" are now scrambling for talent, and pushing their wares with surprising forcefulness.
In the musical and concert field, colored America continues to more than hold: there is splendid forging ahead. In many of the metropolitan cities colored America orchestras furnish the finest music. Concert singers are being presented with elaborate acclaim among the people of both races in all sections of the country. The Howard Players, of Howard University, Washington, D. C., are successfully affording a serious opportunity to advance in the drama, under the direction of Prof. Gregory. J. A. Jackson, of the editorial staff of the Billboard, and The Associated Negro Press, has a most complete review of amusement progress in the Christmas number of the Billboard. Madam E. Azalia Hackley, of Detroit and Philadelphia, who has been called to her reward as this survey is being prepared, will go down in his history as foremost in preserving "Negro Spirituals," and producing inspirational pageants showing the progress of colored America. A woman of rare ability as a vocalist and pianist as well as teacher, Madam Hackley devoted her life to developing race pride in musical resources and possibilities.
Bert Williams, who reached a unique place in the history of American entertainment, whose death is recorded this year, will long be remembered for his quiet humor and his ability to "Trouble trouble when recuble troubles you." Fairs, produced by corporations controlled by colored America in many sections of the South, in which the progress along agricultural and industrial lines is well shown, have reached a new standard. Practically all of them are good money makers, afford recreation, and are of educational value to both groups.
Sports
In the field of sports colored America has always been an important factor, when given opportunity; when tended opportunity, they have made it or themselves. The year's efforts demonstrate that the belief prevails that "all work and no play makes a dull boy." All of the various sports have had a good hearing. Beginning with baseball, and covering all the various lines down to tennis golf, and croquet, and certainly including football, basketball, ball, prize fighting and the "Sport of Kings" colored America has taken part and observed. Bessie Coleman, of Chicago, returned to the States from Europe, where she perfected and gained commendable recognition as an aviatrix. The National Negro Baseball League, of which Andrew Tube Foster of Chicago is the organizer and President, closed a penant winning year, and has completed a program for 1922. Colored America in reaching the recreational stage of life, is promoting and developing summer and winter resorts: Idlewild in Michigan, and a splendid Country Club in New Jersey near Newark, where golf links are available; Arundel, on Cheapeake Bay and Buckroe Beach, in Virginia, are among the notable places of recreation and rest. The most famous football game of the year for colored America is the "Football Classie of the Year" between Howard and Lincoln Universities, alternating between Philadelphia and Washington. This year in Washington, where the game was played in American
DECEMBER 28, 1992
League Park, more than 25,000 people from all parts of the country, representing the highest standard of colored America progress and success, witnessed the event. Social activities before and after the game furnished a damaging rebuke to the mouthings of demagogs that colored America is clamoring for "Social Equality"—in the sense of social intimacy without invitation, and demonstrated with refreshing pleasure the high social development contrary notwithstanding. It must be noted that the activities of colored America are influenced by initiative and results from a number of communities throughout the country. While the chief influencing centers upon the group as a whole are in large cities, speaking nationally, however, smaller centers have demonstrated their ability to focus attention on their achievements and from them eminates wide reaching activities that produce lasting results and helpfulness. Nationwide attention in the first instance is constantly focused on Chicago, New York, and Washington. In the order named Enterprise is noted for its economies on enterprise and circle freedom; New York for its metropolitan contacts and Washington for its closeness to the seat of the government. Then follow Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore in the East; Richmond, Va.; Norfolk, Va. Durham, N. G.; Jacksonville, Dia Savannah; Atlanta, Ga.; Tuskegee Institute, Ala.; Nashville, Tennessee; New Orleans, La.; Indianapolis, Ind.; Cleveland, Ohio; Detroit, Michigan; St. Louis, Mo.; Little Rock, Ark.; Louisville Ky.; Kansas City, Mo.; Tulsa, Okla.; Muskegee, Okla.; Los Angeles, Cal.; Portland, Ore.; Seattle, Wash.; Dallas Tex.; Houston, Tex.; Pittsburgh, Pa.; Memphis, Tenn.; Denver, Colo., and many other cities not named here, of course in the order of importance of influence but each, in a major way contributing help and significant efforts towards the advancement of colored America.
Civic
Organization is the new watchword of colored America. Organization has always been an important factor in the life of the people, but it is becoming more and more practical, efficient and systematic. It is working with vision and understanding. Organization is a master enemy of prejudice, and forgets its way to just recognition. Various bodies that have, for a number of years left their impress on the life of the people, continue to serve their needs and afford inspiration to guide their ways. These organizations, civic, professional, fraternal cooperative and national, are working more and more in harmony with the fundamental faith that actuates all efforts—Opportunity and Justice for Colored America. The opportunities desired are not circumscribed, as some would impress, the opportunities desired are merely the inform impulses of humanity the eternal aspirations of the soul. Encouraged by justice, they contribute nobly to the sum total of human welfare and happiness. They look to the achievement, and not to the class; colored America trembles with regret when American color prejudice denies the right and privilege to rise; reflecting upon their loyalty to the patriotic appeals of America from the beginning of the republic, they are stung to the quick—but not dismayed—by the studied infults and obstacles of hatred placed in the pathway of progress and success. But on they go achieving and achieving getting a stronger hold year by year, among them are: The National Negro Business League, the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Urban League, the National Medical Association, The Universal Negro Improvement Association, The Young Men's Christian Association, The Young Women's Christian Association, The Secret Order Fraternities, The Greek Letter College Fraternities and Sororities The Religious Societies
A Central Executive Council of all of these various divisions of advanced effort has been proposed. Such a sublimation of plans is in embryo. By laying aside petty jealousies of entitled leadership, and eliminating the spirit of selfishness for the benefit of the good of the whole people, a combined program of colored America advancement under the intelligent direction of a Central Executive Council, will be the greatest constructive step possible. With the willing co-operation of the newspapers it will afford a most tremendous impetus to human progress; it will knock down the bars of prejudice and open wide the doors of opportunity; it will be the universal radio of delicate comprehension and understanding; stay the hand of unwarranted radicalism that now approaches a dangerous stage, and command the respect and consideration of patriotic white Amerien to whom, in the last analysis, colored Amerien must turn for the realization of the "substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."
Colored Amerien faces the future.

demanding a place in the sun. The achievements of the past are but a foretaste of the glories; that are to come. There are those in places of power today in the national life of America who are standing on dead men's bones. They flaunt their destructive views and scatter their seeds of dissession with wavering hands and cynical 'splies; they create a discord of tyranny in the symphony of human happiness, but their day of elimination is fast approaching; the black sun of their follied hate is doomed to early setting.
Colored America faces the future, covering the face with shame upon the deeds of injustice and inhumanity; pointing with pride to the achievements for the good of all, in the sorry misst of handicaps and unwarranted oppression. The year of 1922 goes down in history as one of achievement extraordinary for colored America; the record is made, and the die is cast—even God will not change the past.

With happy acclaim every one will

Resolutions for the new year are
being thought of. The good ones
should be kept to the year's ending.
Can you truthfully say that you were unselfish during these holidays? Did you make at least one poor person happy by a needed gift or meal?
With our scores of churches and terming number of professed Christians our people should make this locality a veritable utopia.
LAST OF 1922
This is the final issue of The Tribune for 1922. The next issue will be emplazed with 1923, a new year of unknown events. It will be entered with the experiences gained during this and the years gone by. Whether many of us will profit by these experiences remains to be seen. Here is hoping that all of our readers will ponde well the experiences of the past and let them be a guide for future actions. Incentives from the good should be gained and the pit falls of the bad avoided.
A "happy and prosperous New Year to all."
The question of erecting a monument to the old "mammies" of the South in Washington is being agitated. Attempt will be made to have Congress pass an act authorizing this be done. The thoughtfulness of our friends in the South to suggest such a thing is appreciated. It is felt that they are really sincere in doing so.
Would it not be far better for these friends to join in inducing Congress to reimburse those old "mammies" who are now living and the off-springs of those who have passed to the beyond, who look, all of their hard earnings in the defunct Freedman's bank? Several attempts, have been made to have this done by Congress, but so far unsuccessful. Our Southern friends can induce their representatives to push through such an enactment, thus erecting a monument that would do lasting good.
PERRY HOWARD
The Honorable Perry W. Howard has written a reply to the charge that he assisted in the defeat of the Dyer bill. His tirade does not the least ans wer the awful charge. Making personal attnocks on certain men does not satisfy the public.
Let Mr. Howard readily explain these two very pertinent paragraphs in his letter to Senator Dupont, copies of which, it is stated, were sent to several senators before the Dyer bill was voted upon.
"I confess to you that I have blood in my eyes for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and others who have used them with slurber designs to defeat some of the best friends that we have in particular and the nation in general.
"I therefore think that it should be the policy of the leaders of the party like you to absolutely ignore and give the back of your hand to such men as Nelson, James Weldon Johnson, W. E. R. B. DuBois, Robert I. Vann of Pittsburgh and others of their ilk. There should be no quarters; and while treating every colored man with fairness and looking well to the interest of our group, these political holistists should be annihilated as the basest of ingrates."
ANARCHY IN COLUMBUS
ANARCHY IN COLUMBUS
In emblazoned head lines the daily papers state that "the enemies of law enforcement plot anarchy, in Columbus." Columbus is located on the Chattahoochee across the line from Alabama. This city has always been a hot bed of race prejudice. We can not forget the honible lynching that took place there about twenty-six years
ago when a colored man was strung up on a tree on Broad street, the busy business thoroughfare in mid-day. Not one thing was done to bring the guilty law-breakers to justice. This flame of hatred and disregard for law has been allowed to grow, and it has now increased to such an extent that the officers of the law are hardly able to cope with it. The city will just be reaping what it has sown. Not only this city, but other localities that have allowed lawlessness to run rampant, will sooner or later pay the penalty. The lawless element in these localities in addition to their wanton acts against the defenseless people of color are now turning upon their own. They are committing murder and other lawless acts among themselves, as is being daily reported. And the end is not in sight.
MAKE IT FITTING!
With the advent of January first the sixtieth anniversary of the issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation, the immortal document which broke the shackles of American slavery and set free four million human souls, will be celebrated here and elsewhere throughout the southland and in many parts of the north where during the past six years thousands of southern Negroes have located. The issuance of this proclamation fifty and ten years ago marks one of the epochal periods in our country's history and will ever stand as one of the most far-reaching and most important acts which these United States of ours have experienced.
Therefore. It is fitting that this act of Abraham Lincoln should not be forgotten, but should each year be remembered by an appropriate celebration. On many such occasions in the past the observance of this day in Savannah has been fraught with such dignity, splendor and brilliance as was appropriate for such an important epoch making deed as the issuance of this immortal document, but on a few memorable occasions it was observed by rather fargical celebrations which were very much out of keeping with the importance of the day. It is a day of which every Negro man, woman and child should take cognizance, because sixty years ago it marked a new epoch in the life of their race and in the history of this country. No half-hearted celebration of the occasion will surface; it must be an observance fraught with richness of splendor and adequately representative of the fifty thousand Negroes within the confines of our city if it is to be the kind of elaboration it should be. We have had excellent First of January celebrations and there is no reason why the coming one should not be as grand as my this city has ever witnessed. The Negro's accomplishments are growing in greatness each year and so should his recognition of this day.
MINISTERS ARE SCATHINGLY
REBUKED
There has been incarcerated in the fall at Rome, Ga., for the past nineteen months a young colored man. He has been in there a sufficient length of time to judge the attitude of the colored ministers toward the unfortunate ones of our rags. This young man complains that within nineteen months only three sermons were heard within those walls from colored ministers. Does this same condition obtain in other localities in the state? If this is true, then the members of the cloth are not their brothers keeper; they are nothing about the souls and welfare of the unfortunate ones who have been convicted for crime.
It would be interesting to know how many of our ministers visit the local jail; how many of them go to the convict camps, or lend a voice of encouragement to Mrs Moore at the Juvenile farm or say some cheering words to those small boys, many of them without parents, others with parents who are a curse to them. Personally we know that two or three of our ministers are doing their part but there are about a hundred or more of them in Savannah who are guilty of nec glecting the unfortunate ones among us.
It will be of interest to read the following from the young man in Rome's jail, that was published in the Rome News:
"To the white ministers and white ladige clubs of the city for and in the behalf of the colored prisoners of the Floyd county jail. I wish to extend to you our heart-felt thanks for the many kind favors shown us. I have been here for 19 months or more. 'This is the second Christmas that I have been here.
"There are 15 or more colored churches in the city of Rome, with a membership from 50 to 500; each of them have pstors and not one of them finds a spare moment to come here and deliver a sermon. During my stay here there have only been three sermons from colored ministers.
"My, what a shame; the sheriff's force have made colored people welcome here and sent some of our colored ministers word to come, but not one has shown up yet."
"I must confess that I am not a

church member, but I have always heard that the mission of the church way to save the world through the preaching of the gospel: if the colored prisoners are to be saved through members of their race, God help them. "This is one thing that the Negro must learn: Religion is a great duty, not a mere form and in trust we are our brother's keeper, so God is expecting us to carry him to the heaven of rest. I hope the colored people will awake and bestlr themselves."
Editorial Excerpts
The attitude we sustain toward our enemies is the attitude God sustains towards us. The way we forgive our enemies is the manner we ask God to forgive us.
"Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors." "For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses." Even after the Lord has forgiven if we hold a grudge in our hearts then His forgiveness towards us is made null and void. "So likewise shall My Heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye' from your hearts forgive not every one his trespasses."
But what is it to forgive their trespasses? It is not to injure them unto them. It is not to mention them. It is not to even think of them, but take the blame upon ourselves.—Exchange.
COURTESY
If we receive courtesy we must make a practice of giving it. If we expect kindness, we must be kind. The fact of the matter is, in just such measure as we give unto others we may expect to receive in return. This is true among both men and women we may loom in the various fields of endeavor, the more careful we should be in looking after details. Not only should we observe this code ourselves, but our children should be taught these essentials to our general well being and progress.—Exchange.
He has achieved success who has lived well, laugh often and lored
much: who has gained the respect of intelligence men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it. whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty, or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given the best he had; who life was an inspiration; who memory a benediction—Now American
BRAINS AND GRIT WILL WIN
There is a great demand for brains—real, sure-enough, brains—brains trained and equipped to enter into the game that leads to success. Men of ordinary training and talent are abundant. They fill every nook and corner of the universe. They are as common as pig tracks in the patit leading to the drinking hole. They are as abundant as the shriveled leaves of the forest. They are everywhere. The world is not looking for them, but it is wide awake and alert in search of the man with brains unfettered by error, cunning and vice.
There is a demand for men of brains on the farm, in the mines, in the workshops, in factories and indeed in every line of business. The world is seeking brains to conduct its gigantic enterprises, to guard its borders and to enforce its mandates on land and seas. The farm is reaching out for men of brains to develop deep down into its soils to bring to light its hidden secrets that multiplied millions may re-

jolce in prosperity.. and live in comfort. It is to the soil we must look for all that sustains life. It is to commerce and traffic we must turn when sorrow bivertakes them. Brains is the power which removes the obstacles and barriers over which mankind have been perplexed and disheartened. It levels the mountains of error, bridges the rivers of superstition and guides the universe in right paths. —Star
LET'S LIVE ONE DAY AT A TIME
If we as a race want to overcome the impediments and besetments of life, let's begin today and live one day at a time. Start each day with a fresh record to be made. This must not be muddied with the blurs of yesterday nor the possible blots of tomorrow. If the disagreeable ones go down to failure, you smile at the present full of life and sunshine. Don't let other people's troubles keep you from closing the day with thanksgiving.
The young girl with a clean mind does not dread the morrow. She takes all of the fun out of the present until it becomes a habit; such a strong habit that even the worries as they come fall to din their determination to go forward.
Try it for one day, young man, young woman. Begin this morning to run out of your recollection those nasty, mean, contemptible little prejudices you have against your neighbor and wish them the same pleasures you are enjoying—the pleasures that must count if we are to win this race of life—Exchange.

Social Service Federation News
It is gratifyin gto us to be able to report that through the generosity of the Social Service Committee of the City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, and a few benevolent individuals, the Social Service Federation was able to remember thirty-three homes. The baskets were well filled with the necessities also fruits, note and candies. The older people appreciated these baskets very much, then there was the package of toys for every little child in these families consisting of horn-tea sets and a general assortment of toys suitable for the ages, of the child ten.
We wish to thank every person who assisted us in making Christmas happy for those who felt they were not cared for because of their unfortunate condition. We wish to thank the volunteers who were so kind to lend their cars in distributing these baskets and packages.
Those of you who did not contribute we hope you will be inspired, and will start the new year by plucking yourself to assist us in putting the colored department of the Social Service Federation over the top. Just think for a moment what could have been accomplished if you had helped. We would have been able to remember every needy family in Yamasacaw, the Fort and in every other place where the poor poverty exists. You still have a chance; you have 365 days beginning January 1, 1923. Can we depend on you?

E. Broad St. School Christmas Program
The last hour of both morning and afternoon session was used in carrying out the following program. To say that it was impressive and enjoyed by the teachers and pupils is but mildly expressing it. The program of carols, vocal and instrumental, together with the stories told by all of the teachers, gave hundreds of children a vision of the Christmas season, they get nowhere else. Program: Oh, Come All Ye Faithful Joy To the World, Santa Claus tells of Mother Goose hand, Holy Night; Silent Night, Holy Night, Oh Little Town of Bethlehem, Angels From the Realm of Glory. These were selections on the school's Victrola. The following numbers were piano selections, played on the school player (Viano: Triality Chimes. Christal Chimes, The Christmas Story and Holy Night.
The Christmas story was read while the piano played, Come Thou Almighty King and other selections.
Some of the stories by the teachers were, The Shepherd That Turned Back, The Man in the Moon, Santa Claus in The Mine, The Telephone Message, The Night Before Christmas.
Twelve hundred children gave uninterrupted attention to the entire program. There need be no speculation as to the effect of this music upon the children and the community.

Luxor, Dec. 27 (Crusader Service)
Professor Breatsed, the American
egyptologist, whose Dahabeah here is
flying an American flag big enough to
dominate the water front, was privileged yesterday and today to investigate the tomb of King Tutenkhamen
in the Valley of Kings at Thebes, recently discovered by the Earl of Carnarvon and Howard Carter. I called upon him and received the following statement:
"I have spent an hour in the tomb of Tutenkhamen. The impression is overwhelming. The dispatches have but feebly suggested its marvellous reality.
"It is a sight I never dreamed of seeing—the antechamber of a Pharaoh's tomb filled with magnificent equipment which only the wealth and splendor of the imperial age of Egypt in the fourteenth century before. Christ could have wrought or conceived, and with everything still standing as it was placed there when the tomb was last closed in antiquity.

Howard to Study
Washington, D.C. Dec. 27-For several years past the authorities of Howard University have recognized the need and possibility of a more extensive study that is at present being given to the history of the Negro peoples of the world. For quite some time beginning with the establishment of the Moorland Foundation and thus it the acquisition of Negro Americans the study of American Negro life and history has constituted an important part of the work of the University, but until now it has not been able to extend this study in any intensive way into its African beginnings. The authorities, however, now take pleasure in announcing a program designed to meet, in part at least, this important need. During the winter and spring quarters o f this year three definitely outlined courses dealing with Negro civilizations in Ancient and Medieval Africa will be established and given as an integral part of the work of the School of Liberal Arts. These courses, which will be under the general supervision of the History Department will

His a pleasure to write of the Imperial Aid and Social Club and to note the wonderful progress this club is making under the leadership of Henry Singleton, Jr. who has been holding glower the position of president since last August, he having succeeded A W Wright.
The Imperial Club is one of the most progressive social clubs of the city. It has its own home which is a two story break structure on East Oglethorpe avenue. Its membership is more than two hundred and it is one of the dependable organizations of the city who it comes to community work. President Singleton and his executive board have been putting things "over the ton" and the way they conduct the affairs of the club is commendable. They have an efficient secretary in the person of Clifford Washington who keeps its membership well lined up. The drive for new members which it has recently put through was very successful and quite a number of active young men have been added to the roll.
The joint meetings between the club and its Ladies branch which are held every fifth Sunday are usually looked forward to with interest by the mem
lars. The meeting of Tuesday night was largely attended, the financial accounts of the meeting was excellent and many timely expressions by the members closed out the year for this well organized body in splendid order. President Singleton has mapped out a program for next year's work which is looked upon as progressive and will bring about good results.
The National Boys Club dance and prize waltz held at St. Augustine Irish hall on Tuesday night proved to be quite a financial success. There were many of the young folk present. At 11:15 o'clock the prize waltz took place. In the preliminaries nine complex entered which were reduced to four in the final. At the conclusion the judges decided in favor of Aldridge Lagers and his partner, who danced with both style and grace, winning many points over their opponents on making the pre-cried corners and figures.
All members of the Tuskegee Club are requested to be present at a meeting January 5, next Friday at 8 o'clock at the residence of the president, W. W. Hall, 514 W. Duffy street.
There will be a meeting of the Tuskegee Club on Friday night December 29 in room at the residence of the president, Mutton G. Robertson. 1110 E. Broad street. All graduates, former students and friends are urged to be present and on time.

Provoke Comment
Washington, D. C., Dec 20—The gallery incident in the Senate when Larsius J. Jones, the wounded colored soldier arose and attempted to ask Senator Hitchcock a question, has provoked considerable comment and discussion throughout the country. Practically, all of the daily papers that have given mention to the incident sympathize with the wounded soldier and many are they that declare the propriety of Jones' action. The Hearst papers argued that it would be a good thing if the U. S. Senate rules were so amended that the public might ask questions from the gallery at special sessions.
Lucas J. Jones, the convalescent wounded soldier, seemingly passes much of his time attending sessions in the Senate since the incident just mentioned. he has received considerable recognition from many solicitors and persons in the executive and diplomatic families Mrs. Sawyer, wife of General Sawyer, and Mrs. Harding's private secretary have, as well as Secretary of War Weeks, had personal chats with Mr. Jones and manifested a very kind and friendly interest i
Frank Spofford Gest Mothers Estate
Los Angeles, Cal., Dec 25—Frank Kyle Spofford, for thirty years a wanderer and a seeker after adventure in faraway place, where a talant of Negro blood in his veins would not make him less the man in the eyes of his fellows, has at last come into his birthright as a white man and the legal hair to his mother's estate. The estate is a pretty fortune, but Spofford counts it as nothing compared with the removal of racial impacps that has marked him throughout his forty-four years of life.
With the establishment of his birth right and his legal status as the hir at law of his mother, the last chapter is written in the strange history of the "house of mystery" in Oakland where Annie Amelie Kyle and her brother, Robert Bruce Kyle, lived in utter seclusion for many years, while Spefford wandered over the face of the earth, a white mar believing him self to be Frank S Hill, the son of Mammy Liza Hill, a typical before the war Negro mother of a large family.
Dr. Haynes Discuss Race Relations
Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 27—"With in five generations there will be an end to friction between the white and colored races in this country" said Dr. George R. Haynes of the race relations committee of the Federal Council of Churches in opening the discussion on behalf of the Negro delegates "If the present growth of racial understanding continues the power of mutual interest and genuine good feeling will not leave an atom of race friction in the United States."
Negro members of the executive committee were given perfect equality with the ministers and bishops of the white churches during the three-day conference here. High tribute of the report of the Chicago race commission was paid by Dr. Haynes.

Gallery Incident
Odessa, Dec. 26 (Crusader Service)
Massacres of Jews has become a thing of the past throughout the Ukraine, since the Jewish people here, inspired by the treatment accorded their race under the Soviet Government, under which pogroms and antisemitic or other racial agitation has been absolutely tabooed, have organized a huge secret army of defence to protect their interests in those parts of Russia that are either not under full control of the Soviets or are autonomous.
In the Ukraine the secret Jewish army of defense has grown until it now numbers over 500,000 and is a huge factor in the affairs of the country. It is well equipped with rifles, munitions and machine guns. Branches of it exist in every city of the Ukrainian Republic having Jewish population, and as a result, the Jews no longer cower before the activities of the whites or fascists Ku Klux bands with which the reactionaries are trying to conquer power in those parts of Russia far distant from the Communist center of government, Moscow.
Every man from 1840-50 is enrolled. The younger members number at least 100,000. The organization of the Jewish Secret Army was caused by the recurrence of pogroms in the wake of Denikin, Peluria and other anti-Communist leaders who were trying to bring back the overthrown Czarist-capitalist system.
The Jewish army is often in action against the enemies of its race, the White Guards whose power has been crushed by the Soviets and who are now to be found only in guerrilla bands that haunt the country side and make life miserable for the peasants. These handlit bands have often met defeat at the hands of the Jewish army. In a town called Spalla, for instance, the Jewish army, well armed, engaged in guerrilla warfare with a band of several thousand handits, which endel in overwhelming defeat for the latter and the victorious entry into the town of the Jewish army.
In cities with a majority of Jewish population this army although refraining from taking up governmental control or in any way manifesting its power, is actually the supreme force. The Jewish Army is ready to fight to the death in defence of its people, of whom there are 5,000,000 in Russia. Under Communist rule the Jews do not find it necessary to organize separately for defence, but wherever the Whites are in control or the community disconnected with Moscow for some reason or other.

As the People of Savannah:
Obesity, corpulence or overweight results from insufficient oxidation of foodstuffs ingested. The body may be likened to a steam engine. A machine is fed only enough fuel for the work it is required to do. If an excess of fuel is furnished, the fire chokes or an excess of steam is produced which goes out through the safety valve. Unfortunately in the human machine if an excess of fuel, in the form of food, is eaten there is no safety valve but the excess is converted into fat. In the lower animals the production of fat is a wise provision of nature to carry the animal through periods when food is not plentiful. There are some persons who, although enormous eaters, are thin. The probable reason that they do not increase their weight is their digestion is faulty only a small portion of the food ingested being assimilated. It might be said that this class has safety valves for the excess energy taken in. The majority of persons however, when they eat more than they need for the energy expended, slow the excess away in the form of fat. It is a simple problem in arithmetic: if an individual eats less than he needs for the energy expended he will lose weight. These are incontrovertible facts despite the statement and beliefs of those who are overweight. If a healthy individual maintains a balance between the energy ingested in the form of food and the energy expended in the form of exercise, his weight will remain stationary.
The evils of overweight are many: inconvenience in handling one's self- shortness of breath, improper heart action, difficulty in walking and indulging in any form of exercise are a number of symptoms. Loss of physical attractiveness, especially in women, may also be mentioned. Excessive obesity tends to cause a deposition of fat in the organs, especially the heart, interfering with normal functions.
Of the classes of food, the fats and starches are the fat producers. The class known as proteins, of which meat is the best example, do not tend to produce fat, but their excessive use over long periods tend to produce other changes in the body even more serious than obesity, such as hardening changes in the organs and blood vessels. The balky foods, such as fruits and green vegetables contain comparatively little nutrient, therefore do not tend to produce fat.
It is much easier to prevent becoming too fat than it is to reduce. The tendency of those past thirty years of age is to gradually increase their weight. This is largely due to the fact that one is apt to take less exercise as he grows older. To prevent overweight one should consult one of the numerous tables of comparative weights and heights, find out what his weight should be and so regulate his diet and exercise that he does not exceed the standard. Reduction of weight, especially in those who are excessively fat, should be intelligently brought about, or harm may come of it. A person who has long had a sedentary life and suddenly begins to take vigorous exercise is apt to put an undue strain on the heart, lungs and blood, vessels which may be serious. To avoid this danger, reduction of weight should be carried out over a considerable period of time. The individual should begin with moderate exercise, gradually increasing it from time to time in order that the body will not be over laxed. Exercise with out reduction of food eaten, especially the fats and starches, will cause disappointing results. Exercise increases appetite, which if not restrained will result in over ingestion of food. Until the body becomes accustomed to the reduced diet, the bulk of food eaten may be maintained by green vegetables and fruits and other foods of low fuel value. This will tend to decrease the feeling of intense hunger while the body is beginning accustomed to the shortened ration. Eating is largely a question of habit; many persons are not satisfied until they have eaten sufficiently to produce a feeling of fullness. When they have learned to eat to live and not live to eat, they will dislike this same feeling. An excellent rule to follow is, always leave the meal with the feeling that you could eat again what you have already eaten. A man or woman leading a sedentary life will be in much better health and will have much more energy for the daily task if the sensation of hunger is always present in a moderate sufficient. A very light breakfast, a light lunch and a moderately heavy meal at night after the day's labor is over is the best formula. A heavy noonday meal is a marked deterrent to physical and mental activity in the afternoon.
The use of medicinal remedies including the gland extract unless prescribed by a physician, is to be condemned. These remedies depend for their efficiency on interference with the normal functions and although they may reduce the weight, there is grave danger of leaving the patient in a state of ill health. The restriction of the diet especially the fats and
starches, and exercise, are the natural means of losing weight. Everyone knows that if we overwork and underfeed a horse he will get thin, if we over feed and underwork him he will get fat. Overweight tends to induce mental apathy and physical laziness. On the other hand, mental apathy and physical laziness tends to the production of overweight. Aicious cycle is thus produced which usually requires some strong outside influence to break up. A determined husband, wife, or parent is often the stimulus needed to disturb the tranquility of mind and body of the overfat.
REPLIES TO PRESIDENT. HARDING'S SECRETARY
would have made the position of the Democratic filibuster untenable.
This inkowarmness on the part of the Republicans is as much resented by the colored people as the aggressive tactics of the Southern Democrats. The manner in which the Anti-Lynching bill was handled by the Republicans in the Senate has evoked from colored newspapers all over the country expressions of the gravest doubt that the Republicans ever had any sincere intention to pass the bill.
We have many times expressed apprehension that the President did in his first message to Congress recommend the enactment of anti-lynching legislation, and that he has more than once conveyed to this association evidence of his favorable attitude toward the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Not understanding, there has been keen disappointment on the part of the colored people that the President in his several messages to Congress, while an actual measure was being considered, neglected to urge at any time the enactment of that measure, or even to mention it favorably.
The fate of the Dyer Bill comes as a culmination of a series of disguestments to the colored people during the present administration—a disgustment which in itself outweighs any resulting from failures to give the oral citizens of the United States representation in the administration of the government. The present state of mind of the colored people will be far reaching in its effect
I hope you will appreciate that in writing you as I am doing I am ex-

Congregational Fort Mission
Tuesday night the mission located
at the extreme end of East Oglethorpe
avenue was crowded with little ones
and many friends to witness the Christ
mas exercises and see Santa Claus.
A neatly shaped and trimmed tree was
erected on the platform, surrounded by
a beautiful supply of useful articles.
A program of recitations and songs
was carried out and many of the
little ones acquitted themselves real well.
Short talks were made by Mr. Sherman.
Rev. Gregory and others, after
which the little hearts were made glad
by the distribution of the gifts.
On the outside a large bonfire was had,
thus giving to the neighborhood a real
Christmas aspect.
For the past number of years this work has been conducted by the members of the First Congregational church and especially fostered by Mrs. Hattie Holly whose heart is entwined in it. A free day school is being conducted mission service on Friday nights and a well attended Sunday school. The social service feature is especially stressed. Mrs Daisy Lewis, the teacher and social service worker, visits the homes of the neighborhood, and encourages the mothers along lines of better houses and uplift. The Dorcas society of the church prepares useful articles of clothing for the unfortunate ones of the neighborhood and other sections of the city. This mission work in the Fort is touching the lives of hundreds, and giving a helpful transformation to that section.
Other Observances
In nearly all of the churches and Sunday schools appropriate services and exercises were held. Santa Claus is left to the children made glad their hearts and caused this to be indeed a "Merry, merry Christmas."

Rev. Goodall has been in Philadelphia for more than a week but will arrive in the city during the week and will deliver his final message to his congregation on Sunday morning at 11:30 o'clock. It is understood that a telegram to this effect was received on Sunday. As Itv. Goodall is a forceful speaker and an able pupil orator, it is expected that hundreds will be out to hear his farewell message.
It is understood that the Progressive Baptist Pastors' Brotherhood of which Rev. Goodall is one of the organizers, is arranging to do him honor upon his return to the city in appreciation of his valuable service in the Brotherhood. It is very likely that the citizens at large will join with the ministers in their undertaking.

REY GOODALL TO DELIVER
(Continued from Page 1) Thomas Jefferson Goodall, an abbot and young devine thirty-four years of age, served the First African Baptist church as its pastor. Until a few months ago it seemed as though his work was very satisfactory, in fact, the membership of the church seemed to have been satisfied; when suddenly a difference arose between those on the inside which resulted in the tendering of the resignation of Rev. Goodall, which was rejected and later on came a definite announcement from him that he had accepted a call from a Philadelphia church and would take up work there around the first of the year. This being the case arrangements were made for closing out his services at the church which was
