RD FOR THE DELEGATES O GET TOGETHER ON THE ARMAMENT LIMITATION Associate Negro Press. by the HUNSTING, D. C., Nov. 30.—Is the "white man's world" in the last analysis that seems to be the big question before the Limitation of Armament Conference. Naval and Land Armament have been discussed; the Far Eastern Quiescence is under consideration; social courtesy is extended to all members of the Conference in the same proportion, seemingly, yet behind every act and every more there looms the great shadow of the darker races of the world contending with the white for justice and equality of opportunity. It has been interesting to observe the "battle of the press" referencing the conference chambers. Both input and China have matched, at every stage of the game, the wisdom and diplomacy of the United States, Great Britain, France and all the others. There is an instinctive feeling of pride for one on this side, to observe the combination of colors. Premier Aristide Brûland, the eloquent statesman of France, has come nearer than any of the others of the white races in reaching the soul of the other peoples. Rugged, earnest and conjuring in logic and artery, stalked about in the air, while he sat at his feet. One after another, following his great address on Land Armament, followed with expressions of more or less approval, but there stands his message, a masterpiece of statesman-ship utterances. France, more than any of the other great powers of the world, has risen above the petty sophistries of color, France is loved by the Colored people of America, because she has interwoove with the spirit of her national life, the spirit of true liberty and justice. Things To Afount Said M. Riand, in pleading for the wellbeing of his nation, to have peace in the world, there "must be a moral disarmament." He was speaking of Germany, in particular, but the same principle holds true with reference to tyranny in the South, or anywhere else. The big question after all is said and done in this: Are the hearts of the people right? - It must not be forgotten that the nine nations represented at the Conference officially, may represent powers of the earth, not represent, but millions, the physical possibilities of all the world. Japan knows this and China is not forgetting it. - One of the Japanese visitors addressed a mass meeting of colored Americans the other night at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, colored, and he brought a message of great significance to those who heard him. He told of the importance of all the Colored races of the world pulling together for the best things of life. He, as we recognize the rising tide of color has not reached its zealth. English delegates are deeply concerned with the millions in India. There has been considerable inside discussion of the attitude displayed there towards the Price of Wales' visit. - What is coming next? There is an atmosphere of curious expectancy noted everywhere. One cannot help noticing the fine measure of esteem accorded the American representatives. From the public point of view, there is every feeling that the United States is only accounted for by Secretary Hughes, Senator Lodge, Senator Underwood and Elinor Root. There is a combination to be respected anywhere, and it has been wondered more than once, by philosophers at Versailles and Woodrow Wilson, pointed men as delegates who think for themselves and are permitted to act. There is yet no exact telling just what the Conference will finally adopt. There is caution, but if there is suspicion, it has been very cleverly hidden President Harding, is keeping hands off in contradiction to a certain other President who assayed to be both engineer and drumman; conductor and motorman. Howling, having a "single track mind" according to his own expression, possibly he was constrained to develop the habit of playing a single handed game. In that as it is the world is still to fall, and if it is not, he will be handled can give the proper diagnosis and administer the proper medicine we may not be out of the training by Christians but we will be thankful for encouragement. It may be traced out of many parts in the "Training World" in some form that he experienced from time to time. PHILIPPINES WANT THEIR INDEPENDENCE SETTLED AT CONFERENCE Leaders Plan to Ask That Question He Settled Before Arms' Parley Ends MANILA, P. I. Nov. 30.—The question of Philippine independence, little agitated since Gen. Wood's arrival, has been responded with renewed vigor. Philippine legislative leaders have announced plans to send a message to President Rattarotterated their appeal for independence. Their leaders say that they want America to settle the question before he disarmmance conference adjourns, and say: "We realize that America considers this purely a domestic question for her. We do not wish to the Philippines to over her head and face the Philippine question before conference." This is part of the campaign in which the resolution nasking President Harding to convey to the conference the good wishes of the Philippines recently passed, was the first step. Other notes are contemplated. THE TAYLOR CASE GOES OVER TO GRAND JURY State Waives Preliminary And Young Man Who Shot Graham Will Go Direct To Grand Jury. The case of Clifford Taylor, young colored chauffeur held at Clayton for the killing of Henry B. Graham, wealthy member of the firm of Graham Paper Company, is being carried directly to the Grand Jury. It is reported that the prosecuting attorney, in the case has taken the state's prerogative and waived the preliminary hearing in lieu of an indictment. Court first for Tuesday, Nov. 24, and then postponed until Tuesday, Dec. 6. Mrs. J. T. Wallace, 431 Bonhomme Avenue, Clayton, mother of Taylor, and his young wife, have been making stromous efforts to supply the funds which it is reported that the attorneys for the defense, Messrs. Kimmel and Britt, have declared are necessary for the proper preparation of the case for trial. Several prominent white and colored citizens have expressed a strong desire to see young Taylor receive a and injurious trial and it is suggested that the court will substitute the case will substantiate in an undeniable manner the statement that the killing was done in self defense. Judge Klimmel, in an interview granted a representative of the Argus, expresses the belief that Crittenden Es Clark will be retained to assist in the defense of the accused. Many interested people are working in the interest of Taylor's family and it is reasonably certain that this case will instruct the attention of the great majority of the public at St. Louis and abroad. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; through the local branch, has sent a representative o Chayn to investigate the case Upon going to press The Argus had not been informed of the results of this investigation but it is known that the Association is deeply interested in the outcome of the trial. The case has been reported in an executive meeting of members of the American Legion and the ex-service men are taking a keen interest in it. James Wesley, Johnson, Secretary N. A. A. C. F., Testes Before Secretate Committee Special to The Argus NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Testifying before the committee of senators who are investigating the American sequestre of the black republic of Haiti, James Wesley Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, attribued much of the trouble in Haiti to color prejudice or the jart of American Martines and office holders sent down there under the Wilson administration. Mr. Johnson, whose series of articles in the New York nation, epithed "Self-Demandment Haiti," widened attention and helped to make Haiti an issue in the last presidential campaign, testified in Washington on Tuesday, November 15. Prejudice and small-calibre Americans had been sent down to Haiti, said Mr. Johnson, creating friction with the natives by reason of color prejudice they brought with them, which had never been existed in Haiti. Nor had the Americans made any improvements on the island, Mr. Johnson continued, except roads which had been built by enslaving Haitians. While in Haiti, Mr. Johnson had heard all the current stories about the atrocities attributed to United States Marines, he said, some of these stories being told to him by officers of the Marine Corps.

CONGRESS WILL POLICE BOARD IS BE IN SESSION NOT INCLINED TO AGAIN MONDAY PUNISH WHEELING Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill Expected To Be Among The First on the Calender Hope That It Passes Before Christmas. The Associated Negro Press. WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 20. The Republican Congress has adjourned and has not left the Colored Regulators a leg to stand on. After eight months of incessant struggle the gavage of the Senate and the House of Representatives fell, leaving an expectant people very much up in the air except in one direction. See about this next November" that has been heard so often that the dyer of it makes people unaware, it is time to shup and make the dyer. Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill came meant to the threshold of reality Congressman Dyer informed the Associated Negro Press representative that it will be among the first on the calendar in the next session which begin December 5, just twenty days before Christmas. Perhaps Congress proposes to give the union this bill for a Christmas present. Johnson's Friends Rally Following the "turn down" of his confirmation by the United States Senate, friends of Henry Lincoln Johnson from all sections of the country have written and wired their opinions and feelings on the subject. There was only one thing left, and that was for President Harding to make a process appointment. Prior to the executive session of the Senate, when the Johnson confirmation was finally acted upon, a committee of the National Committeemen's friends went to the Capital, and held a brief conference with Senator E. Watterson of Indiana, and Senator Jones, who was chairman of the committee on the Johnson case. It was explained by the Senators that if Senator Tom Watson of Georgia arose and deserved that H. L. Johnson was personally objectionable to him, "Senatorial courtesy" would prevent the confirmation of the Georgia statesman as Recorder of Deeds. The Senator, arose, and he stated some objections which Col. Johnson has declared are without truth there has been serious faults in the final quits against the maker of the charges and a Washington newspaper that primed him for the next morning. The fact remains, however, that "Senatorial Courts" and Republican politics, much or little right or wrong, have prevented 15,000,000 Americans who for the most part have always been Republicans, from having a single Presidential appointment in confirmation in the United States, in a session of eight months, where Republicans have everything overwhelmingly from basement to dome. CHICAGO CITY ASKED TO RECOMPENSE THE VICTIMS OF 1919 RIOT Many Are Destitute and Without Funds To Substitute Their Claims CHICAGO, Ill. Nov. 30—A. L. Williams, attorney for twenty-one cases of riot victims who suffered from the riot of 1919 at Chicago has filed a lawsuit to the effect that many of the victims of the riot are destitute and without funds sufficient to substantiate their claims against the city for injuries reserved mid for the life and prosecution of the riotist. Following the precedents set by the cities of East St. Louis, Illinois and Frankfort, Illinois, in the cases of victims of riots in those two places Alderman Frick introduced a resolution sending the Chicago cases directly to the Finance Committee, Alderman J. H. Lyle delivered an address of support of the resolution and recommended that the city recompense the colored victims of the riot without delay. The resolution also required which their sustained from the riot. The total sums sued for by all of these twenty-one cases, $5,000.00 each, is $105,000.00. In three cases previously tried riot victims have been awarded damages in sums ranging from $2,000.00 to $5,000.00. It is probable that as a result of the support which has been given the resolution introduced by Alderman Frick that the Finance Committee will vote the total sum called for by the riotist. The following is a partial list of damage claimants, and the courts in which their cases are pending at this time. List Of Claimants The following is, a partial list of the chalientes, each in the sum of five thousand dollars: Cornelia Baker, widow; Lewis C. Heirry and wife, son and wife; Ada Janks, mother; Josephine Dozier, widow; Gertude Crafford, widow; Lilian Bass, widow; Lila Williams, widow; Mary Sanford, widow; Robert Taylor, widow; Josephine Bradley, widow and sister; Olivia Harris, widow and one child, and Cecia Robinson, widow and six children: Julia Jackson, widow; Augusta Texler, widow; Pearl Mills, widow. All of the above cases are for the loss of relatives or husband killed by mob violence and there are many others for personal injury sustained by the victim in romantic relationship. The rewards of third party peace of N. A. A. G. P. Gets Report Members Doubt Being Able To Make Case Against Policeman Accused By Dr. Amanda Gray. The report was made to the Executive Committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at its meeting last Friday night that the Inspector of the Police Board and Secretary of the Police Board did not feel entitled to bring Officer Felix Wheeling to trip before that board on the charges filed against him by Dr. Amanda V. Gray of the N. W. C. A. Attorney Gos. L. Vangnah stated that the county that had communicated with the President of the Police Board, be better, injuring the reason for the delay in the hearing, and thereafter had been called upon by the Secretary of the Board to a conference, at which Major Girk was present, and that these officers had secured statements from ticket sellers, the decoy寡寡, one official in connection with the Centennial celebration at the Coliseum and a number of police officers, upon which they based their conclusion that they would not be able to make a case against the offender. The Executive Committee voted to turn the matter over to its legal committee for investigation and such action as it saw fit and urged that the case be pushed to its limit. Much, veragkarria-dokgodi if offfifo Much criticism is heard, concerning the attitude of the Captain of the Sth District toward the case. It is said from the beginning that instead of handling the matter as police matters of the nature should be handled, he lectured the complaints when they wore before him in the matter of social equality. The evidence, submitted by the police in the matter to the Board has been gathered under the direction of the Captain of the Sth District. Colored People Stirred The colored people have been more stirred up than at any time in the last fifteen years by the brutal assault of the officers upon Dr. Gray at the Collisum. While she was attempting to secure a seat to witness the pagenant in honor of the 100th Anniversary of the admission of Missard. She charges that she was pushed down in the street and dragged and put in the patrol wagon, treated and spoken to as if she had been a common street woman. The belief of the colored people in the fairness of the Police Board was the only thing which kept great agitation of the matter from being made at the time of the happening. The association is making a thorough investigation of the matter and the ministers have taken up some with the determination. She justice done in the case is sited by those familiar with the facts that if a white woman of similar standing had been treated in the same way, something would have been done before now, in their opinion. The case will be watched with interest to see whether or not the Board of Police Commissiones who have charge of the matter are fair. EX-SERVICE MEN AT CENTRAL BAPT.

HOWARD LAW SCHOOL LOSES ANOTHER DEAN HOWARD LAW SCHOOL LOSES ANOTHER DEAN Death Of Mason N. Richardson, For 27 Years On The Faculty, Is Keenly Felt. Special to the Argus WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 30- While it is true that institutions like individuals must bear their share of the world's bosses, even so a year of that a single department of an educational institution is called upon to sustain itself by teaching a loss as has just taken hold in the School of Law at Howard University, in the death of Dean Mason N. Richardson. The passing of Dean Richardson, whose funeral was held in this city on the 8th instant, follows by only a few weeks the death of Dean Benjamin F. Leighton who served at Howard for forty years. A member of the local bar for thirty-five years, for thirty-seven of those years, Prof. Richardson, stood beside his friend and colleague, the late Dean Leighton as teacher of Law at Howard and so when the infirmities of advancing years led Prof. Leighton to return from the deathbed as a man, mankind will tell him his faithful companion Prof. Richardson, amidst charities of the thousands of colored men and women whose lives he touched in so important and beneficent a way during the twenty seven years just mentioned. As was reminiscent by one of his colleagues, "Mason N. Richardson was a prince." Yes, he was; and by token of that same testimony he must be remembered as preeminently fitted for the deanship which he invested with far greater dignity, honor than the office ever gave him. Published almost no to fault, nevertheless he did claim to dominate the value of the firmness when that quality was needed and the very years" that he served the law school regardless of the sacrifices which were insacrably involved in his work, are eloquent of the fact that he was no stanger to that tenacity of purpose which cries out "Excelsior!" as it presses on to victory. Summoned from his labors in the School of Law ar a time when he himself made a claim to his father of his genius had just given one scholastic aims a broader and a fierer outlook than they had ever known before. Dean Richardson has left us at a moment when he could least be spared. His like will not soon again pass this way. The Associated Negro Press MACON, Ga., Nov. 30 -- Coincident with the installation here last Monday of Captain Charles L. Redding, of Waverry, as Assistant United States District Marshal, to represent the State Court. R. M. McLoughlin, newly released marshal for the southern district of Georgia, will take out of office December 1. Ralph Cuppin, building and Mr. McLoughlin are Demographer, but did not complain from a A Square Deal For Every Man COULD EMPLOY A MILLION MEN IN THE SOUTH SAYS MR. FORD If The Association Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 30.—Henry Ford of Detroit, has been to town. There is news with a punch. You cannot separate the name of Henry Ford from news any more than can separate, Henry Ford from the world famous automobile that bears his name. Newspaper correspondents for the news like chickens in the old barnyard for corn. So, obsessed and persistent have been the Knights of the Fourth Estate in endowing to get the "sage" from Mr. Ford that a small portion of his very valuable time in life is spent in playing the ancient and honorable childhood game of child, and seek." Mr. Ford indulged in it on his latest Washington trip. He came here by special appointment to confer with the Honorable Secretary of War Mr. Weeks on the subject of purchasing Muscle Shoals for so many and so many millions of hard cash. Secretary Weeks became suddenly III, and straches in the War Department called up all the Washington hotels seeking to find Mr. Ford when he was told the conference would be transferred to the Honorable Secretary of Commerce Mr. Heover. When the hump of hope had almostlickered its last flicker, someone discovered that the great manufacturer and financier was living in his private car at the Uni station, where it was connected with the Discrict of Columbia telephone system. Eludes White House Scribes Following the conference with Mr. Heaver Mr. Ford, made a "personal" call on President Harding at the White House. The scribes saw him go in the main entrance, and straightway set about sharpening their pencils to get the "big interview" on the retreat. They waited, and waited and finally became suspicious of the investigation discovered that he had long since left the habitat of presidents through a basement side door. Muscles Shoals Opportunity Nevertheless, Mr. Ford has made a proposition to the government for the purchase of Muscle Shoals that is receiving the most serious consideration. With the "completion of the purchase the possibilities are so gigantic in the field of economic development that the imagination is staggered. Mr. Ford has declared: "If the government will sell its Muscle Shoals project, I will put the South on the mall." Asked what he meant, Mr. Ford replied that he would give employment to a million men. Here in enters the Colored American in a way that gives an entire new vision in the field of racial development and ability per cent in the known fact on Muscle Shoals Dam. In Arkansas, under construction during the war period, was performed by Negates. This included skilled and mutilated labor. The Government has spent more than $105,000,000 of the money on the project already, and the entire proposition is now dormant. Completed Muscle Shoals means marvelous horse power, by a system of dams. Aluminum and nitrate 'will be manufactured on a scale unheard of in America. Aluminum is fast becoming the metal of the armament, and nitrate has many uses, one of the chief being its fertilizing powers. It is stated on the highest authority that the colored farmers of the South, at little cost, will be able to double the capacity of their farms from physical bondage. Hence Ford may be the encumbrator of the industrial bondage. MRS. LELIA W.

Farris, about 65 years of age, a native of Missouri and for two decades a resident of St. Louis, died Tuesday, November 22 and was buried from the patrons of Harris & McKinon underkinders, Sunday 27th.

Mr. Farris was well known among big business interests in St. Louis and for many years has been employed as special investigator by leading corporations. He was well posted on historical events in the State and information on the daily lives of all his Bathroom citizens. Just before his death he had planned to write a history of the Negro in Missouri for publication in The Argus. He was an associate to late P. H. Murray, C. H. Tandy and I. Milton Turner, and was about the last of that generation of ethnic and political warriors. H. E. TANTER DIES H. E. Tanter, a resident of this city for over sixty-five years, and a night watchman at the Windmere Hotel for twenty years, died suddenly at his post of duty Wednesday morning. Nov. 30.

Tanter was a scholar in the city's schools and at attention in the Government Post office service, shortly before the Civil Service was inaugurated. He leaves three daughters, a son, other relatives and a host of friends. Funeral will be at Pflugerville Church, Sunday Dec. 4, at 1 p.m., 4115 Papin.

They have had more to eat, more food, more fresh meat, more fresh meat, more equipment, better sleep and better health with fewer deaths than any 500 center families of the same station in life in the city. They came to Kinchobee empty handed. Some of them have their places fully paid for others have triple payment and others are just starting. The anders are just starting. The anders will vary from $200 to $000 each. Perhaps the average amount saved by each of these 500 families will be $900, 500 times $600 or $300,000 thus the owners actually saved $300,000 during the time they have been saving their rent. They have probably paid their rent 12 times each year, and among the 500 they have 60,000 little pieces of paper—receipts, worth nothing to them. They probably cost them an average $10,000 each; 60,000 times $10,000 is $000,000—thus the renters have spent and saved $300,000. Choose ye this day whom ye will serve—yourself or a landlord.

Clinton Holder, Alma Bayford and Milburn Morante are the featured players in a picture which is distinctly different from the general run of Western plays.

He Like most of the Southerners, he Negro platform. true that "Link" does not repre- sent Negroes of the Race, yet we boots, that he is in every way to which he aspired as Tom Watson United States Senator. MARVELOUS POWER OF ONE DEMOCRAT IN CONGRESS Over the combined efforts of President Harding and a Republican Senate, one Senator Watson from "Down in Georgia," has prevented the confirmation of Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia, as Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia. It will be remembered that Mr. Harding appointed Johnson about six months ago, but this appointment must be confirmed by the Senate, unless made as a "recess" appointment. Of course, it was not expected from the beginning that Tom Watson, from Georgia, would ever give his consent, to the appointment of "Link" Johnson, or any other Negro to any responsible position. Its against Tom Watson's very nature to do so. But the marvelous thing about this case is, how in the name of peace and plenty can one one democrat brow-beat or bluff a gang of republicans as Senator Watson did? No one dare say that the Republicans didn't have the power to confirm the President's appointment; no one can plead the lack of a Republican majority as the reason for Johnson's confirmation, failure. The only logical reason is that the Republicans are playing into the hands of the South, the expense of the Negroes, or the majority of them are lacking in moral courage. After, using first one reason and then another, as to why the Republican National Committeeman from Georgia should not hold public office, Senator Watson invoked "Senatorial Courtess" rule and admitted that it was a personal matter with him and that Johnson was obnoxious and personally objectionable to him. We are wondering what Negro in the United States who would have been acceptable to Tom Watson? He is known as a Negro-hater. Like most of the Southerners, he rode into office on an anti-Negro platform. While it is true that "Link" does not represent the best type of upstanding Negroes of the Race, yet we are willing to stake a pair of boots, that he is in every way as much fitted for the office to which he aspired as Tom Watson is fitted to fill the office of United States Senator.

But when he was in charge of "De Affairs" in Chicago, last year, he didn't show enough courtesy to answer letters written him by his friends. Its a case of business with the Republicans; the price for Lily Whites is the elimination of the Negro from office-holding. They figure that the Negro will "vote er straight," office or no office. You can say what you please about Tongwatan of Georgia, but one thing you must give him credit for, and that is being able to frighten a Republican Senate into submission to his will. Let the word "Nogro" be to you synonymous with everything that is good and beautiful; then we will appreciate ourselves. Dr. O. C.

THE FIGHT IS ON (Atlanta Independent.) That the fight is on between colored Republicans and Lily Whites, there cannot be the slightest doubt, for Colored Republicans, know that the Lily Whites are their bitterest foe. They are a pervicious adjunct to the Republican party and style themselves Republicans for jobs only. The whole history of the Lily White movement is one against the political rights of colored Americans. It is an aggregation which has neither wealth nor principle. They do not represent the very best element of the white race. It has very little intelligence and wealth. Their greatest assesst is race prejudice and hate; and, realizing that they have next no chance in the Democratic party, by reason of their ignorance and poverty, they hope to obtain these things thru the Republican party; and they think the best way in which to do this is to eliminate colored Americans. They have even offered to join with the Democratic party in eliminating the Negro from politics. They are more to be feared than the most outspoken Democrat, in that they have a very little asset to bring to any party, and feed on their prejudice and hate. For that reason, Democrats are preferable to Lily Whites. The results of the November election show unmistakably the attitude of Negro Republicans toward Lily Whites. Whenever they had a wreak of them, they used it for all fight is on between colored Republicans there cannot be the slightest doubt, us, know that the Lily Whites are they are a pervious adjunct to the ones themselves Republicans for jobs, of the Lily White movement is a rights of colored Americans. It is as neither wealth nor principle. They very best element of the white intelligence and wealth. Their greats and hate; and, realizing that they in the Democratic party, by reason, poverty, they hope to obtain these in party; and they think the best way to eliminate colored Americans, to join with the Democratic party, to from politics. They are more to outspoken Democrat, in that John Mitchell Jr., (colored), although they knew that he could not be elected governor. And those who did not vote for him, voted the straight Democratic ticket as a protest against Lily Whitsam, and well they did. They are to be feared, even though they come hearing gifts; for they are wolves in sheep's clothing. Now they have become a political adjunct to the Republican party, and, their names imply, "Lily whites," their aim is to Lilywhite the party; in other words, to make it a pure white party by repudiating the Negro. And, sad to state, they have been welcomed by the Republican administration at Washington, and it has demanded that they have the party lead and control. The administration played into their hands by cutting down Southern representation in the National convention to give the Lily Whites the advantage. In every way possible, it has played into their hands. Through the leadership of C. Bascom Slemp, it aided and abetted the Lily White candidate for governor or Virginia, although he stood for the complete elimination of Negro Republicans, and showed it by kicking them out of a Republican convention. He declared that it was for whites only; and Negro delegates, who were regularly elected, were driven out of the convention without rhyme or reason. In Kentucky, the Lincoln Independent Party was organized by the leading colored Republicans in that State as a protest against this same bunch, for they know that it is inimical to everything that looks to the political promotion of black men and women. In New York City, Mayor Hyland, although a Democrat, received six votes to every one cast for the Republican in a solid colored district. This is something new under the sun and shows the bitter, deep feeling colored Republicans have against the Lily Whites; they have just begun to fight, and unless the policy of the administration is changed, colored citizens will cease to affiliate with the party to which they have been so loyal and loved since the days of Abraham Lincoln and Grant. As much as they would regret to do so, it must be done in self-defense, which is tantamount to self-preservation. There need be no doubt about that. They are fully determined to protect their political rights at any cost, for they are American citizens and pay taxes and perform all civic duties/required of them. Even in the time of war they gladly responded to their country's call. They freely offered up their lives on the country's altar in every war waged in its defense. The name of Crispus Attucks still revibrates/around the world. And in the late World War more than four-hundred thousand enlisted in that great conflict, and thousands fell on Flanders field. Hence, the fight is on and will continue until every right accorded to other groups of American citizens is accorded to us. It may not come under the present adminis- tration, but it will come as certain as there is a just God, who presides over the destinies of nations and peoples. Right will win. Our cause is just and must triumph. Let us continue to fight injustice and tyranny. In stead of becoming despondent, let us take courage, for it is as true today as it was when one great writer said: Whether you like it or not, unless our democracy is a lie you must stand for that equality." If he did, now is the time to show it. He cannot show if by playing into the hands of the Lily Whites who are unalterably opposed to the civil political and economic equality of black men. On the contrary, the playing into the hands of the Lily Whites will destroy it, root and branch. No group in America is more anxious and willing to see two great parties in this country—North and South—than Colored Americans. They have intelligence enough to know that as long as there is only one party, they will not receive economic, political and civil equality—whether in the North or South; and for that reason, wisdom dictates that every effort should be made to have two great parties. But they are equally aware that it cannot be done by giving Lily Whites the leadership, who are unalterably opposed to every sense of right and justice to black men. The Negro invites high-class white men into the party, and is willing to make every reasonable sacrifice to have them, but not Lily Whites, whose only asset is narrowness and prejudice. As we have stated before in these columns, this can only be done by adhering to the principles taught and practiced by Lincoln, Grant, Harrison and Roosevelt—meting out equal and exact justice to all groups of American citizens, irrespective of race, color or creed. Then and not till then will we build up a great party in the South, which will preach and practice the fundamental doctrine of the Republican party—that all men are created and endowed with certain inalienable rights, among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

In what might be called preliminary remarks, the pastor touched upon a wide range of subjects which he one to believe that he knew something about what was going on in Utah. He said very soon he was going to prosecute a sermon on "Momshine." After telling something about "Jane," he said would also speak about the "Tox Test." During his talk on the subject he said that religious business were good persons. "I can, and not one of those who history in you can take all the world but give the least." Dr. Maxwell said he would answer "Momshine." other in business. The Negroes in St. Louis spend over $20,000 a day. How much do you spend with your race? I know our stores are limited. but patronize those who are in business and watch them grow. What are you doing with them? President Hays made a few brief remarks following the sermon. At St. James Sunday The St. Louis Negro Business Association will be the guest of St. James Church, Sunday, Dec. 4. Ree. Peck (the little giant) will preach a special sermon. All those interested in business at St. James members of the association are urged to be on time. Change in Name At their regular weekly meeting last Monday night a resolution was adopted changing the name of the association from "West End Negro Business Men's Association" to "The St. Louis Negro Business Association." The change of the name was made necessary by the fact that the organization has grown so rapidly that its membership has reached all parts of the city. The city said that the elimination of the word "Men's" would give assurance to the business women that they too were welcome to join. There were no change in the officers, only the name was given a wider scope, so the business men and women from all parts of the city may feel free to join. The present organization has done much to stimulate business among the men that has been started in the city. Prof Joe H. B. Evans addressed the men on "The value of advertisement." Monday night, which was unusually interesting and helpful. DR. C. A. WILLIAMS IS RE-APPOINTED PASTOR OF ST. PAUL CHURCH Congregation Will Pleaseed When On Thanksgiving morning, Bishop H. Blanton Parks, presiding Bishop of the 5th Episcopal District, came to St. Paul A. M. E. Church, of this city and re-appointed its pastor, Dr. C. A. Williams for another year, much to the satisfaction of the members of that congregation. The Bishop had needed his coming for Sunday, the 217th on Thanksgiving morning instead, and re-appointed to fill his engagements for Sunday. He prepared to a capacity auditor. There was scarcely standing room in the building. Before delivering his sermon the Bishop made a statement to the congregation Sunday morning, in which he said he had thought himself acquainted with the conditions at St. Paul Church, but found that he was misaken. He urged the congregation to banter year in the history of St. Paul, highly complimented its pastor for the work which he has been doing. It is freely stated by the members of, the church that more than ninety-five per cent of the 'members' is highly pleased with Dr. Williams as pastor and that they stood behind him as a single individual and made the fight for his return. As soon as the Bishop got on the ground he was as most widely behind its pastor and that the best interests of the connection and all concerned demanded the return of Dr. Williams. Interest in the appointment was not confined to the members of St. Paul Church. Citizens were concerned about the matter and it is said a large citizen's committee stood ready to wait upon the Bishop, and Dr. Williams in the community in a public spirited way and the mistake that would be made in moving him from St. Paul, but the Bishop did not wait to hear them or anybody else. His first contact with the members of the church convinced him that they was not only no reason to wait for Williams, but was every reason for returning him. The members of St. Paul Church look upon the matter as closed, and as a complete vindication of Dr. Williams and the splendid work he has been doing. FIRST REGT. U. R. K. P. MO.

These organizations have been following the policy of private conference with officials of the administration for the months since they went into office, so attitude of the administration has an favorable to the release of individual prisoners "on their merits" but actually none have been released, summarily because of the opposition the American Legion and the lack any strong public sentiment for amity. The Civil Liberties Union announces that it is beginning the present campaign in order to express to the President the proamnesty sentiment of the country. The committee will follow dramatic methods of presentation by demonstrations and picketing, to get the issue before the whole country. The Civil Liberties Union is collecting funds which will enable the work to be continued for at least five months. The campaign at Washington is in charge of a local committee headed by Gibson Gardner, long associated with the Serious newspaper syndicate, Hena R. Mussley, head of the People's Live Service, and Mary Gertrudnall, secretary, formerly connected with the National Women's Party. Among others, the committee, Mrs. Robert M. LaFollette, Frank P. Pugh, Rev. John A. Ryan, Laurence Codd and Walter Liggett. Officers have been opened at 233, Maryland building. In addition to the work at Washington, the Civil Liberties Union is appealing to all cooperating organizations throughout the country to support the work by letters and telegrams to the President by letters to local citizens, and to members of the Republican National Committee in their states. All organizations and individuals are urged to take independent action at this time, so as to produce the maximum expression of opinion. Among the organizations active in the amnesty work are the World War veterans, whose officers have just prevailed in the war, to the President, asking for the release of all prisoners supported by four holders of the Congressional Medal of Honor who interviewed the President with them. These men were Captain George K. Mallon of Minneapolis, Clayton K. Slack of Wisconsin, John J. Kelly of Chicago and Berger Loman of 'Chicago.

A., held at Tabernacle Baptist Church Tuesday night, a new permanent organization was formed with Nathan D. Thompson as president. In the course of the meeting several members made a plan for retaining the old charter of the U. N. L. A. It was brought out in the discussion that the charter was the only document that would represent the claims of those who had bought stock in the various schemes fostered by the gilged emperor, Marcus Garvey. The more conservative ones, however, felt that the charter was no better than Mr. Garvey's promises. One member asked that the charter be given to him if the organization did not want it. A partial constitution was read and adopted naming the new organization the Pacific Coast Negro Improvement Association. Election of officers resulted in in the selection of. Noah. D. Thompson as president, amid much glory and personal praise of Mr. Thompson's work in connection with the convention in New York City last August. The rules were suspended and Mr. Thompson was elected by a rising vote of the body, Hon. J. B. Bass,副tor of the "Boaring Eagle," was likewise elected vice-president by acclamation. The other officers elected were W. L. Kimbrough, secretary; T. A. Harris, treasurer, and Prof. W. H. Johnson, chaplain. The president, Mr. Thompson, started the organization and received a demonstration of applause when he stated that the charter of the U. N. I. A. was not worth the ink with which it was written. The purpose of the new organization is in consolidate efforts for the civic and commercial betterment of the community. MEMPHIS Tenn. Nov. 10—Three Southern states, Arkansas, Mississippi and Alabama, have produced a crop of more than $2,000,000 gallons of sorghum group this year, according to a compilation of degrees made public yesterday by C. W. Watson, market specialist of the Farm Development Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce. But it seems that nobody wants the crop and the farmers who have it are arguing to have it at least until the market reaches the sorghum area and more people can buy it. ment concerning the political prisoners still held, says: 'Of the hundreds of men and women sent to prison during the war under Espionage Act and other laws, 147 still remain in Athens, Leavenworth and McNell Island prisoners. Those who got out did so by parole or by expiration of sentences, many of which were reduced by the Wilson administration. There has been no act of innocence nor any general policy of releasing such prisoners, although the Hanning administration has given repeated assurances that some action would be taken. It is beyond dispute, as the court records show, that every one of these 147 prisoners were sent to prison only for expressing opinions against the war, either in speech or writing, or for opinions construed to be against the war. Not a single one was convicted of an act of violence. Not one of them was a German spy. They are all essentially free speech cases. "Of the 147, almost two-thirds are members of the industrial workers of the World convicted in the three federal conspiracy cases at Chicago, Sacramento and Wichita, Kansas. The decision of the courts of appeals in these three cases make it clear that they were convicted of precisely the same offense as Engene V. Dela and others under the espionage Act that is, only of written or spoken opposition to the war. The other charges originally brought against them were not solely lay charges of apprehension among other prisoners are Riordan Los Angeles, a well-known Mexican revolutionary, Rev. Wm. Madison Hicks of Oklahoma, Emil Herman, former state secretary of the Socialist Party of Washington, fifteen men from Texas and Oklahoma, active in the socialist movement among the troubled farmers, J. T. Cumbie, 74 years of age and Orville S. Anderson of Iowa, a pacifist. "The policy of 'dealing with each case on it merits', which has been the attitude of the Department of Justice cannot possibly do justice to these men. All of them were convicted of substantially the same offense, and they deserve precisely the same treatment. No purpose is served by their continued imprisonment, particularly in view of the fact that every allied country, and also the enemy countries during the war, have all issued decrees of amnesty, and long ago released the prisoners. Our own policy, as attested by the action of Lincoln and Jefferson, has been to free such prisoners by presidential order. They can be freed either by presidential order or by the passage of a resolution by Congress. Such resolutions are now pending." HOUSTON STARTS WAR ON VICIOUS TENDENCIES OF OUR MODERN LIFE HOUSTON STARTS WAR ON VICIOUS TENDENCIES OF OUR MODERN LIFE The Associated Negro Press HOUSTON, Texas, Nov. 30—Safeguarding the American home from the vicious tendencies of modern life was the sermon driven home by Judge E. B. Brooks last Sunday afternoon at Billie Mayfield's meeting in the City Auditorium to an audience of approximately 5,500 men, women and children of Houston. Simultaneously, with the Mayfield later announced from the stage similar gatherings were being held in 106 towns and cities over the State. Colored people were admitted to the meeting. At the conclusion of the meeting resolutions were adopted by acclamation resolving: "To drive the dirty song out of Houston That the jazz dance will be held no more in this community That we will not patronize the indecent movies That our girls will be girls to adopt some changes in the modern dress."

Crossland, Special Expert U. S. Veterans' Bureau, Washington, D. C., spent a few days, during the past week at the Tuskegee Institute, inspecting methods of training and the process of the U. S. Veterans' Bureau. During his visit Dr. Crossland spoke to the students in the Institute Chapel and in the Templins. Dining Hall. He praised the work of Tuskegee Institute, of its founder and of its present principal, and stated that the men who are being rehabilitated at Tuskegee Institute were receiving most thorough training and were enjoying the environment. Dr. Crossland added to the Veterans' Bureau Trainsers, advice them what the government was trying to do in the way of rehabilitation them and to make good of the opportunities presented in them at Tuskegee. He was entertained at Buchen at Dorothy Hall by Dr. R. M. Roberts, at which members of the Executive Council were present.

OPENS WITH FEDERAL BILL. 12 The League will meet the Congress immediately with a WANT BETTER ECONOMIC CONDITIONS FOR NEGROES Industrial Commission Reports Bed Conditions in State Are Forcing Majority of Negroes To Cities By R. S. COBB Special to the Argus JEFFERSON CITY Mo, Nov. 20—Twenty-five counties mostly in the extreme Southern end of the state have few or practically no Negroes, 100 of the 114 counties have been heavily in the past decade of their Negro population. This is a serious economic problem because the majority of Negroes are drifting to the larger cities where they do not fare so well. Pensilvania County has made the largest gain of any of the counties due to the large influx of Negroes from Arkansas and neighboring states. In 1910 the Negroes formed 2.4 percent of Pensilvania County. The Negro population comprises now 14.5 per cent of the total population making a gain of about 7 per cent. Negroes along and north of the Missouri rivers seem to be the most prosperous and contented, most of these follow agricultural pursuits. The great problem in the rural district now as I see it exclusive of the lack of proper school facilities is the lack of proper recreational facilities, using power to learn to use their spare time wholesome and well directed attention. The Negroes of this state have two farm workers, one lady and one gentleman Government agent these are doing a great work toward establishing thrift, garden and other profitabl clubs. It will take some time before all these workers can be added but each member of the state industrial emancipation is using his spare time in organizing Rural Community Club. Negroes of Charlton County, under the direction of Commissioner N. C. Brinker, are planning a Farm Conference for December at which time Dr. Moton of Tuskegee and other authorities on Rural problems will be present There must be an extraordinary effort put forth immediately to hold the Missouri Negro in the rural district where he is most needed and where he eventually fares the best from the standpoint of health and financial independence. Another great advantage of the Negro's living in rural districts is that he fails to come into contact with the industrial class of white citizens and thus avoids much friction that is found in larger towns. THE REVOLT IN INDIA The Associated Negro Press BOMHAY, India, Nov. 30—On Saturday morning, trouble started in a number of places, the patrols again being forced to fire into the city. Both disturbances were combined to the native section, affairs in the European business section, going as usual. In the statement issued yesterday, Mahatmas Gandhi, leader of the "non-Governorianists" depreciating the disturbances which occurred on the occasion to the arrival in India of Prince of Wales, deserved that it was impossible to describe the agony he had suffered during the "past two days, whose events stink in my nostrils." Gandhi, emphasized that the Mussulmans ought to be grateful to the Parsee Indians for their liberal contributions to the Caliphate fund. Instead, he declared the Parseses had been victims of the attack. He present Gandhi invited both Hindus and Muslims to go home and repent and to implore God for forgiveness. "He insisted that repentance should be made to those who had been injured. Finally Gandhi blamed himself for having insisted the spirit of recoils and announced that he would refuse 'to eat or drink anything but water until peace is restored. NEWS AFFECTING COLORED PEOPLE (Southern Publicity Committee) The Southern Baptist women's missionary organizations has two thousands and local auxiliaries which report cooperation in some from of Christian service with the colored women of their communities. The inter-racial committee of Newport, Rhode Island meets monthly, and has been particularly successful in its work. A new high school for colored pupils is now assured; the authorities have cooperated heartily in cleaning up the city as regards both health and vice conditions; and when the committee joined the white, W. W. C. A. in petitioning for a probation officer as a small beginning of needed work, they gave four, two white and two colored. The legislature of North Carolina has appropriated $100,000 for a tuberculosis sanitarium for Negroes, to be built on the 1,400-acre tract purchased by the state for tuberculosis work, the sanitarium for whites already occupies a part of this tract. The new hospital will be colored by colored stained glass assisted by colored Menwhile the State Board of Health pushes its preventive educational campaign among the Negroes North encouraging results. The Southern Methodist Women's Missionary Council is supporting a colored trained nurse for public health work in South Carolina, the nurse being, as it happens, a member of the Episcopal church. She works among the congested colored population of the lower counties. She not only goes personally into the homes and schools of her people; but through the colleged women's clubs she has remarkable success in quilting the educated women of her race as helpers. The local auxiliary of Southern Methodist women also did the work by interesting white women of the churches and clubs in health conditions among the Negroes. The work of the nurse is under the direction of Mrs. Dodd, the woman official of the State Board of Health; A New Kind of Profession The George Peabody College for Teachers in Nashville, Tenn., has recently added to its faculty a Professor of Race Relations in the person of Mr. R. H. Leavell of Mississippi, whose study for the government of causes of race migration attracted much attention. Mr. Leavell's appointment to this unique professorship, the first of its kind in the United States, has been made possible through the farsightedness of a little knot of Christian business men in Tennessee, and in Texas. They especially desired to have courses offered at the college which would make the teachers there trained to address the Negro population as a part of their curriculum, these students how to handle these community problems which cut across racial lines. Mr. Leavell makes personal studies of communities which are dealing successfully with any phase of biracial life, hygienic, economic or moral, as well as of the sociological results to both races of such methods. These first-hand facts are used in his lectures which are drawing an increasing number of women sexes. One student is a man of both sexes. One student is a woman who wishes to fit herself to return to her brother's large plantation and develop Christian adjustments between the races in a country community with a large Negro population. Southern Publicity Committee Disbands With this release the work of the Southern Publicity Committee ends. It was organized four years ago to acquaint the Southern public with what the white South is doing. In many cases along long lines to prepare interstate routes and to cooperate with the better class of Negroes to help the less fortunate members of their race. The facts gathered and published during these three years make an impressive list. They have been sent to hundreds of daily, weekly and religious papers, to hundreds of college presidents and Young Men's and Women's Christian Associations in colleges and cities; to hundreds more of leaders in church, social and civic work, both men and women. They have gone to both races and have been strengthened by the publicity given to these constructive facts. The Committee's work, it was always hoped, would eventually become unnecessary. That happy day cannot yet be said to have arrived; but there has come into existence mother agency, the largest and best which has ever appeared in the field of racial adjustments. Several members of the Community Committee charter members and believes its growth one of the most important and heartening facts in Southern History. This is an age of consolidation; and those who have herefore provided the funds for the work of the Publicity Committee have decided that better results can now be obtained if these funds are added to the publicity department of the Interracial Commission, which, through the organization's vigorous growth, is in constant need of enlargement. The philanthropy of the releases therefore comes with this issue. Southern Women and the Negro The women's chapter of the Southern Presbyterian, the Southern Baptist and the Southern Methodist churches have endorsed the program of the women members of the Interracial Commission, and have set in motion the machinery to carry it out in local communities throughout the South, thus their local church societies. The plan calls for three committees in each auxiliary to study the Negro homes, schools and churches of the community with the aid of the colored women who are locally leaders. Familiy leaders will also discuss a concerted plan of school is to be prepared, differing according to local needs, upon which the women of both races can unite. In cooperation with the county inter-racial committee. In the opinion of many Southern students of public questions no more important or hopeful action than this has ever been taken in the wide and tangled field of race relations. At Agnes Scott College Atlanta, Ga. the girls of the Y. W. C. A. hold a vespere service for the colored women employed on the campus. The girls at Brennan College, Galveston, Ga. have taken up interracial work by securing a gymnasium direct for the colored public schools of the city. The students of Bungalow-Macon Woman's College, Lynchburg, Va., provide speakers for some of the services of the colored city Y. W. F. A. and assist in their Bible study classes, and in the recreational and gymnasium, work. The women members of the Alabama state interracial committee have like-minded members of the Georgia State committee, published a monobook law in which they "explicitly repudiate the claim that lynching is necessary for the protection of white womanhood." The Woman's Auxiliary of the Episcopal diocese of North Carolina has appointed a committee to confer with leading colored women of the state to the needs of their women and children, other than themed for plans for cooperation. The wife of the colored suffragan bishop of the diocese has been included in this committee. CONSTITUTIONALITY OF CALIFORNIA ALIEN LAND ACT TO BE TESTED The Associated Negro Press SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 30— A special court composed of three Federal judges, one from the circuit court of appeals and two from district courts, has taken under submission two applications for injunctions restraining the State and county officials from interfering with the letting of four-year crop contracts to Japanese inland farmers. It is charged that the California alien land act would be violated by the contracts and the proceedings are a test of constitutionality of the law. BRITISH AND EGYPTIAN DELEGATIONS SPLIT ON PROTECTORATE PLANS The Associated Negro Press LONDON, England, Nov. 30 — Negotiations between the British government and the Egyptian delegation regarding the abandonment of the British protectorate over Egypt have temporarily 'collapsed'. Adly Yehne Pasha, head of the Egyptian delegation, in an interview with Foreign Secretary Curson today, presented a note stating the delegation's inability to agree with the British draft of the Egyptian constitution, make an Egyptian an independent, although a compromise. After the interview the Egyptian delegation left for Calco. The chief disagreement arises from the British desire to maintain partitions at Cairo and Alexandria, while the Egyptians claim that British troops must be confined to the canal zone for the exclusive purpose of protecting imperial communications and that they must proceed without the support. "Japan Becomes the Hero Or The Villain Of The Drama," Says Herbert J. Seligmann. "Japan Does Not Differ From Great Britain In Her Excuse For A Navy, From Germany In Wanting Territory To Expand, Or France On 'Security.'" This is the Fourth of a Series of Articles by the Author of "The Negro Faces America." Mr. Seligmann is now Director of Publicity of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. By HERBERT J. SELIGMAN NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 30.—Some one has said that there are only one original stories in the world, and that every one of the thousands of stories published yearly is only a variation of one of the stories in the world, and that this has its pedigree at the Armament Conference in Washington. The scene of struggle has shifted to the Far East, to China and Silberia, but the drama remains the same; a scramble for markets and for undeveloped regions where labor is cheap and ruin materials are plentiful. posed of small groups of men, either owing their office to, or being in close touch with the bankers and other business men in whose behalf, wars are fought, are not likely to wash their hands of these bankers. The men now assembled in Washington will not do one of the things the people is heard unmistakably, and there is no way for the voice of the people to be heard except through the newspapers, which, for the most part are in control of those very governing groups. Every thinking colored American knows how the facts color lynchings, It only proves that the source of much of the world's difficulty is economic, that is to say, slovene housekeeping. Japan becomes the hero or the villain of the drama, according to the Japanese view. Japan is unchanging Japan's position, when Japan insists that her population is larger than her islands can support, that she therefore needs colonies or "spheres of influence" like Manchuria, Korea and Shan Tung to supply her with food and material, and that she needs a navy to insure open communications for her with those regions on the mainland, exactly the position of the British Island, to the territories all over the world grouped under the title of "British Empire." Japan differs not a bit from Great Britain in her excuse for wanting a navy. Nor does Japan differ a bit from the Germany of before the war in saying her population has grown too dense and needs foreign territory to expand in. Nor does Japan differ from France in demanding "security." That the skin color of the Japanese is "yellow" has, nothing to do with the case. The problems of empire do not vary according to skin pigmentation. When statesmen sit down to "do business," skin color fades as an issue Skin color only becomes an issue when someone can act a "mob in punking trouble over it," as dishonored news reaches the South; and on our Pacific coast, and would there therefore be a grave misaeke for colored Americans to look upon Japan's course as heroic, right or wrong, when the Japanese are not white. The Japanese government's course is to be judged exactly as the course of white governments is judged. For the Japanese government has been as reprehensible a sinner against that other yellow-skinned people, the Chinese, and against the Koreans, as any white government. It remains to be seen in Japan fully as much as in our own country and in England, France and Italy, whether the people can force peace and small navies on the governing group, or whether steel and battleship makers, together with bankers and diplomats can force large navies and armies on the people, with the inevitable consequence: war and death. For if peace is to come and reunite it will be because the peoples of the world make their diplomats afraid to endanger that peace. It will be because Americans, Japanese, French, English, force the hands of their servants in washington, teach them that diplomacy involves obey and that the voice they must hear is the voice of the people. And the people peace. If they want it enough they will get it and pay for it, and no price will be as heavy as the price of war. Meanwhile, Japan has been used as an agent in bringing on the downfall of Europe. Her influence and her armies have been used in that great game played by the Allies and chiefly by the triangle the present Russian government has been a powerful source of opposition to the Far Eastern Republic which is closely allied to the Russian Soviet government. Having seen that game played in Europe, and having seen the European governments gobbling up China, in the interest of their bankers, the Japanese government naturally was impelled to try the game also. Japan accordingly gobbled up Korea and Manchuria, and took the opportunity provided by the world war to seize Kiao-Chao and thoroughly penetrated the Chinese province of Shan-Tung. If the European powers are going to keep parts of China for the use of their bankers, there is no reason why Japan should not do the same. In fact her security 'would demand her doing so. It can only be done with a navy, and does mean war. The official alternative is to take China out of the hands of bankers and put her on her feet in the East; to do the same for Russia and Germany in the West, whereupon she ought to be enough raw materials and enough trade for everybody without the first killing millions of men, women and children, and washing the raw materials and destroying the markets in which the trade is to take place. If the world war taught us anything is that, mankind is one: that men will give to work together and that no people can into famine like the Russians, into the Germans, into pollution like the Chinese, without endangering the future of all human kind. For the victors always will quarrel over the results. There must be no war. If every life is made up of people, then the world will be made up of people. posed of small groups of men, either owing their office to, or being in close touch with the bankers and other businessmen in whose behalf, wars are fought, are not likely to wash their hands of those bankers. The men now assembled in Washington will not do so unless the voice of the people is heard unmistakably, and there is no way for the voice of the people to be heard except through the newspapers which, for the most part are in control of the governing groups. Every thinking man, the common know how the facts about lynching and race rifts have been distorted in the white press of the United States. Similar distortion went on about international affairs before the world war, during the world war and it continues now that the war is over. But it is a legitimate hope at least even if it is not an expectation, that public feeling throughout the world, against war and the instruments of war, may over-ride the newspapers, the diplomats, and the governing bodies of the country already the pressure of public opinion in the United States is intense. Without knowing exactly how to get it, or what to do with all the shipbuilders and sailors who will be thrown out of work, people want navies scrapped. That is a feeling which overrides race and race prejudice. For people are beginning to realize that race prejudice is merely another instrument, in the name of managements and venal journalists, for estimating the rule of war on this planet. (A fifth article by Mr. Seligmann will appear next week.) BILLBOARD EDITOR ON NEGRO FAIR BUSINESS NEW YORK CITY, Nov 30—In a recent interview J. A. Jackson of the Billboard has this to say about the Negro Fair Business: "Since the first of the year, travelled over 12000 miles for the purpose of getting acquainted with our interests in the show business; and with the men that direct that interest. While on these trips, 52 cities were visited; nearly a hundred owners of thethetes were consulted; and over fifty owners and unguagers of traveling attractions were interviewed. 55 officials of fair associations have been talked with; eight fairs visited and more than fifty more were brought to notice. One colored carnival owner has been man and four; others heard of during the summer. Fifteen colored concessions were work for themselves; and over fifty experienced men familiar with the arts of the outlaw business and games were found working in the stores of other concessionales. Six parks have been visited and a dozen more disclosed. All this is in addition to the thousands of actors and musicians it has been our pleasure to meet. It is only natural that these contacts and observations should form the basis of some thoughts on our interests in this big business. The one big idea that ships the mind, is the need of organization among the colored men whose capital time and energies are occupied with these interests. The interests at stake demand concerted action on the part of the persons concerned. If efficient management and profitable operation is to be assured, we need a big body associated with the Negro Business League, this body to be composed of three groups: namely, Fair-officials and park owners; in one group: Theatre owners and managers; travelling show owners and managers. I shall be glad to talk over the matter with anyone. "There's money in it." Pickens At Jacksonville The Associated Negro Press JACKSONVILLE. Fl., Nov. 20. The visit of Dr. Wm. Pickens to our city and state will have a telling effect of the social and economic condition of the people. His addresses and lectu- ries will quailize places and heft a lasting impression on those who heard him. The Armistice Day celebrations were held separately. The whites paid no attention to the Negroes and vice versa. The former had a gigantic parade and prominent orators delivered addresses to them. The Negroes held their celebration in Ebenesher M. E. Church, Rev A. H. Attaway and Prof. John C. Wright, president of Edward Waters College were the principal speakers and both did justice to the occasion. The Associated Negro Press PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 30 — Vanity boxes of ancient Egypt were much like they are today, showing that Nile Queens of those days were very similar to those of 1821.

Great for manufacturers with permits to make FADS ARE OLD AS PYRAMIDS Mute Story Told by Mummies of Both Egypt and Peru in Field Museum in Chicago. Hobbed bed, concealed ears, short skirts and all the other fads and fabrics associated with modern women's styles are as old as the pyramids, according to the mute story told by the mummies of both Egypt and Peru in the Field museum in Chicago. Wrapped in their pitched shrouds, and encased in saraphad, covered with curious paintings and hieroglyphs in colors still bright after 3,000 years of more, these mummies, all that was mortal, of human beings, of ages ago, today link the present to a civilization long since dead. The daily center of thousands of curious eyes, for the minimes seem to hold a strange fascination for every visitor to the museum; they are silent spectators of the passing throngs, but the paintings which adorn their resting places tell more plainly than words of styles, customs and manners of a forgotten age. "Why, ma, they're dressed just like the girls we see on Michigan boulevard," exclaimed an aged visitor to his wife as they gazed at the strange figures adorning the sarcophag. "It appears like they, did not wear a bit more than they do now," the woman answered as the pair moved away. It is a far cry from the Nile of Cleopatra's day to the Pacific coast of Peru in South America, but mummies from both regions, lying almost within reach of each other now, but in life ignorant of each other's existence, bear graphic evidence of the greatest similarity and proficiency in many arts, at a time when the Norsemen were ravaging all southern Europe and the Old World had almost sunk into barbarism. IT IS SPORTING PROPOSITION French Writer Explains Why Divorces Are More Common in America Than Elsewhere. The sporting spirit expresses itself in every phase of America's national life. Marriage in the United States is a very different thing from what it is in France. It is a race for happiness if you wish; but each one races for himself alone. Sex competition supplants set cooperation. Each party preserves his or her individual interest and freedom of opinion. There is little or no real intimacy, though much luxury—supplied, it is always understood, by the husband, writes Georges Lecharter, in La Revue de Paris. But no matter how liberal the latter may be, his wife usually thinks, and often says, that he might be more so. Taming a husband has the same sporting interest for an American girl as taming a horse, hunting in the Rockies, or trout-fishing in Canada. However, when once the conquest is made and the fish hooked, there is less interest. This explains why divorces are more common in the United States than anywhere else in the world. Giant Searchlight Crossing the bay from San Francisco in the direction of Sausalito, one sees in the distance the most enormous piece of sculpture in the world, the figure of a beautiful woman, wonderfully realistic. It is Mount Tamaipalps, on the summit of which is being installed, a searchlight of 500,000,000 candlepower. Equipped with a lens five feet in diameter, its light in the clear California atmosphere, is expected to be visible from Mount Shasta, 175 miles distant. Occupying a position 2,875 feet above sea level, the beam of the searchlight will shine out over the top of summer fogs that oftimes cover the bay of San Francisco. But the fog banks are to be made of interesting color pictures when the light is thrown upon them through color screens. Samples of hand-woven cloth made in East Africa from banana fiber have been brought to Australia by Captain Hydahl, and growers on the northern rivers of this state have become interested in the possibilities of utilizing the by-product of the banana industry. Several grades of banana fiber have been prepared and Captain Hydahl believes that portions can be used in the manufacture of artificial silk. Experiments are being made to ascertain the commercial value of banana by products in the manufacture of cloth, silk, rope, twine and paper. Australian Gems in France. Australian gems are finding a ready welcome in France and the rough opal from Queensland and elsewhere has a good sale. One French laquidy recently told the New South Wales commissioner to the Lyons exhibition that he was willing to spend 200,000 francs in equipping a factory with all the latest devices solely for the cutting of the Australian rough opal. The gems shown in France by Percy Marks, the commissioner, caused intense interest in the gem trade and the effect on the Australian miner may be far reaching. Would Move On?

But I can't afford to have my children show how much butter I get in the gown." "Loving Christian James." In the End You Will Succeed Or Fail Because of Its Contents. In the end you will succeed or fall because of what is inside of your head. But neither the X-ray nor any other device ever invented or, ever likely to be invented, will enable a prospective employer to look into your brain. Even the questionnaires and psychological tests show but little. And many a boy who stands at the head of his class in school or college never makes good in after life. You carry somewhere, behind your forehead the ability that will enable you to win. But that ability has got to be tried out. You've got to persuade somebody that you are worth employing before you can use even the best of ability. This is the age of advertising. You must have some kind of an "ad" to sell yourself-with, and the best one available is a good appearance. If you look prosperous, if you are well dressed and alert and cheerful you are well advertised. In any line of applicants, you are likely to be picked out as one of the most promising. Your clothes and your general appearance attract attention. Appearance is not all, of course. Many men look like a million dollars who are not worth 10 cents. But they get found out very speedily. If you are really able and competent, all you need, all you ought to have, is a chance. You, will never get that chance if you wear, seedy clothes and neglect your teeth and need a shave. Your only "ad" is the impression employer, and others get of you at the start. Make that a good one. Don't be afraid to spend money on it. All good advertising is expensive, yet it is the best investment that a business man can possibly make. FIND SECRET OF FINE TONE Ohio Man Discovers That Velks of Eggs and Beeswax Were Used in Filler of Violes. N. C. Holcomb, musical instrument maker of Norwalk, O. believes he is making rapid advances in his efforts to discover the secret of the fine mellow tone of the Cremona violins. Musicians for years have wondered why many old Italian violins apparently made in a slipshod manner should produce such clear sounds, says Cleveland Plain Dealer. Holcomb believes that the lost secret had to do mainly with the silver and vanish. Not long ago he was informed that a careful chemical analysis had been made of some of the finish on an old violin owned in Battle Creek, Mich. This examination disclosed the fact that before the varnish was applied the wood was filled evidently with the yolk of an egg and beeswax. Profiting by this information, Holcomb rubbed these substances into the raw wood of a new violin before applying the varnish. The results were surprising, the instrument producing a tone that is usually associated with age. Lavender Sweet Lavender The cry of "Sweet Lavender" is once more heard in the London streets, as it has been since the Huguenots first grow the sweet and cleanly plant on Lavender hill near where the Clapham Junction railway station now stands. It carries a very fragrance across the centre, recalling the days when London was a little town, and even Charing Cross was a somewhat distant village. As the bricks and mortar spread, the lavender retreated up the valley of the little River Wandle. Mitcham lavender became famous, and the visitors to Mitcham fair wandered through the fields to see the lavender reaped with a sickle and tled up into little bunches. Now Mitcham is threatened and the last grower is retiring from business. But London must have its beautiful blaze, scented flower. —Christian Science Monitor. Temptation to Sheriff "Did you take along bloodhounds in the old days, when you toured the country with an 'Uncle Tom's Cabin show?" "No," said the veteran actor. "We carried Great Danes or muskits as they were large and there looking animals. Bedfires, if wouldn't have been good policy to have real blood hounds that might have been useful to a sheriff if he attached them." —Birmingham Age-Hersal. Overheard at a Party. "That girl engaged! Why, who could love such an ice creature?" "Jack says she is in the world to him." "Well, Jack's world seems to be still in the glacial period, that's all Freg to say."—Boston Transcript. FRIDAY, DEC., 2, 1921 FEW POINTS ON HEALTH Open, windows still are the surest way to ventilate a room. A well ventilated work room keeps workers active and alert. Foil air maker is inefficient operators. Common diseases are caught by using a common drinking cup. Warm lunch service should be a part of every industrial plant. HEALTH-COMPELLING TROUGHTS New York Bulletin Influenza is always spread from person to person. Avoid crowds. Your nose, not your mouth, is made to breathe through. Get the habit! Leave the windows OPEN! Insist on plenty of fresh air at all times. It is a question not of your comfort but of your life. Although the fashion for heavy underclothing has almost died out in America, some cling to the idea that it requires damn near the skin to be healthy, that it should be the health. Dr. G. A. Jordan, Hospital Commissioner of St. Louis says that for the aged and very young who are inactive and whose powers of resistance are low warm underclothing is essential, but is conductive to "taking cold" and pulmonary disorders when worn by active, full-blooded people. Thus the present style, especially that affected by fashionable women, of wearing almost no underclothing seems to be justified. City life demands changes from high to low temperature many times daily, says Dr. Jordan, and, therefore, persons who are constantly going about will find moderately heavy underwear a protection against cold, pneumonia and other diseases prevalent at this season of the year. This can be very readily understood, he says when one realizes that a person wearing heavy underclothing goes from a cold temperature outside into a building or room where the temperature is from 75 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The result is precipitation which, although not excessive, is at least sufficient to slightly moisten the underwear. Then in his moistened condition he passes into a temperature many degrees lower with a result that the skin is chilled and the process of "taking cold" is induced. One should wear light or at least medium, heavy underwear, and should regulate the warmth of the body by the outer garment which can be removed upon entering a room with a high temperature he says. A PET NOTIÓN EXPLODES Another old fashioned medical superstition has been exploded. The odorous onion can never again be used as atherapeutic agent in tuberculosis. The old timers who have sworn by the virtues of, this year-product of the garden will have to make up their minds that they have hamburged them selves, for the onion has been investigated, classified, analyzed, and everything else has been done to it that the learned men of science could think of and in the end it was found to be only an onion—pleasing to the palates of some, however displeasing to the noses of others. The onion is qualitatively without any medical qualities or properties that make it an aid in the treatment of tuberculosis. The white plague victims may as well use bottled potato or beef teps for all the good it will do them. So smash goes another superstition. How, the onion was scientifically tested is interesting. The story is told by W. Lintz n the New York Medical Journal. The attempt was made to feed onions to healthy guinea-pigs and to those previously inoculated without tuberculosis germs. The guinea-pigs absolutely refused to eat onion, preferring rather to die. Therefore hyperticulous injections of various onion preparations were resorted to. First healthy pigs were injected to study the effect of onions on normal growth. The effect was injected with varying doses of tubercle bacilli for control. Another series which received the different onion preparations was injected with tubercle bacilli to see whether onions have any prophylactic properties against the tubercle bacilli. A further series received the bacillus and onion preparation together to see whether onions destroyed or attenuated tubercle bacillus. Lastly some pigs received tubercle bacillus and some time later the onion preparations to see whether onions contained any curative properties affecting the tubercle bacillus. The results were all negative. The onion does not affect the normal tissue of the gulena-pig. It will not prevent the development of tuberculosis. It will not destroy or even attenuate bacillus bacillus. And it has no curative properties in tuberculosis. The Associated Negro Press NEW YORK, Nov. 30.—Our market recovered sharply, recently, on short reverting indicted by more favorable advice from Liverpool and has rulled steady during the greater part of the year. Our address from the South Indian market is at Liverpool and informed at about the same basis and unhedged cotton has been withdrawal from the market on this decline. On the other hand, the mills are rather indifferent, as they find the dry goods market rather quiet, with buyers watching raw cotton values closely. In other words, the holders in the South do not appear worried over the position, while the mills wait for an improvement in goods before entering the market, and will seem from a waiting for the other to make a definite move. In the meanwhile there is a substantial short interest here both on unhelped cotton and for specialized account. We believe the market is thoroughly liquidated and while it is holding for the second time, not long after a change in the market has occurred.

The Associated Negro Press WASHINGTON, D. C. Nov. 30.—A system of accounting aimed to meet the needs of cotton ginners generally as they are operated in the cotton belt has been worked out by the United States Department of Agriculture and is now published as department bulletin 185, entitled "A System of Accounting for Cotton Ginners." Special attention is given to the needs of custom ginners, but it is believed that ginners on private plantations will find this system of accounting helpful. No previous knowledge of beckkeeping. It is said, is necessary for using the system, each step of which is fully described in the bulletin. GAS IN THE STOMACH IS DANGEROUS Recommends Daily Use of Magnesia To Overcome Troubles Caused by Fermenting Food and Acid Indigestion Gas may wind in the stomach accompanied by the "tum" "mouted feeling after eating are almost certain evidence of the presence of excessive hydrochloric acid in the stomach, creating so-called "acid indigestion." Acid gummies are dangerous because too much acid irritates the delicate lining of the stomach, often leading to gastritis accompanied by serious stomach ulcers. Food fettails and sour, creating the diarrheas gas which distends the stomach and hampers the normal functions of the vital internal organs, often affecting the heart. It is the worst of fools to neglect such a serious condition as to treat with ordinary digestive acid which have no antirrubrication effect on the stomach.

Many notable women made addresses on live topics that were timely, inspiring and of a nature to arouse the thoughtless to awakening and concern. The program was arpaigned and conducted by Sister Waters, assisted by Sister Lulu Alexander, and no palms were spired to make the day one of notable pleasure by these titless workers, and it proved a success from all point of view. To every participant we turn a vote of thanks and to every visitor friend and member we pray a special blessing upon for your able help that crowned our efforts with success.

Elder J. J. Jackson, pastor, Sect Papin Street. LANE TABERNACLE The great congregation that filled the pew in Lane Tate-made last Sunday morning enjoyed, a great spiritual awakening in the heart clutching sermon delivered by the pastor Rev. N. L. Smith. Both members and Cisters were immensely happy and the best evidence of this was the joyful expression on that great sea of faces that confronted the pastor. And yet we have other proof that cannot be denied this being the seven witnesses that came and united with the great Lane Tate-made army at the close of the sermon. After one feels the Glory of one of our Rev Smith's sermons and witnesses his great Supernatural power to draw men unto him if it is easy to understand his great and simply slagges since Being in St Louis. It is most remarkable to see the great host of new members that are now preaching colorful methodism so strongly and just a few years ago, they never heard of a C. M. E. Church in St Louis. This was all realized under the altruistic leadership of Rev N. L. Smith who is especially noted for his ability to use young people in the church. Most all of the class leaders are young men young men are in majority of the Stewart Record, and even the Trustee Board is blessed with such young men as Mr. Charles G. Gates who is the secretors and Mr. J. W Vaughn, the vice-president, Rev N. L. Smith certainly stepped on the activator since being in St. Louis. How else can we know a man except by his good work? Rev N. L. Smith is set for any office the C. M. E. Church has to offer. He will make good anywhere, and luckily will be the General Conference if it can find a few more progressive men like him, with a clean record such as he has to fill important offices. If every minister had spread the Gospel as Rev. Smith has, there would be very few people out of the ark of safety. Rev Thomas Parrish brought an awful sweet Thanksgiving message to a grateful congregation Thanksgiving day. Only one out of ten thanks God for his wonderful blessing. The speaker said, and proved this in a sermon full of love and warmth. Two came to the altar at the close of the sermon. Mrs. L. B. Oliver. Mrs. Fred Carter and Mrs. Sarah Parrish have been highly complimented for that pleasing dinner served by the Morning Star class last Sunday. The Good Samaritan Anniversary High set of turkey had no terrors for the Good Samaritan club at their first Thanksgiving anniversary celebration at the home of Mrs. James Hughes 422 Cook Ave. Tuesday evening. November the 22nd. The guests were made up of friends of the members of the popular Good Samaritan club and filled 2 large and beautifully decorated tables. And then the dinner came. There was a prodigious helping of turkey with dressing and green peas, celery and creamed potato, cranberries and fruit salad, punch flowed free ly, and finally, when all of these things had been disposed of, there was ice cream galore and cake in 2 varieties. And then came black coffee to close the great feast. The Radiant Gloride of Good Samaritan colors tinted with the beautiful dress of the ladies made the scenery a wonderful sight to behold. There was after dinner speaking at which Dr. O. W. Johnson, president, Dr. Edward Bell, Mr. J. C. Campbell and Dr. N. O. Braacy, were the speakers. Before departing each member and guest shook hands with Mrs. Sarah Farish, the president and Mrs. James Highes the hostess and thanked them for the pleasant evening. LIBERTY CONGREGATIONAL Dr. Oscar Garrett of Houston, Texas was the speaker at the Liberty last Sunday morning and in his clearly defined address he emphasized the pioneering agencies that ultimately gave the American Negro a knowledge and consciousness of freedom and manhood. He hastened to name the Congregational Church which functioned through the American Missionary Association, as formmost in this work. Our little mission seeks an opportunity to become a church equal to the most spiritual and constructive one in the city. Visit our meetings and help us in this all important work. Holy Communion will be served Sunday morning and evening all Christians are invited to participate. Mrs. Lillian Miller is a patient at the People's Hospital, and is much impaired, her church is anxious about her and prays for her recovery. PARKS CHAPEL A. M. R.

LESSON FOR DECEMBER 4 PAUL IN MELITA AND ROME LESSON TEXT-1Aa 38:1-3L GOLDEN TEXT I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. For I am not assumed of the gospel of Christ; for it is the power of 'God unto salvation' to everyone that believeth—Rom. 1:15, 16. REFERENCE MATERIAL-Mark 18:18 Rom. 1.5-1.17 PRIMARY TOPIC-The End of Paul's Journey. JUNIOR TOPIC-The End of a Long Journey INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -Paul Living in Rome. -YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -Paul's Ministry in Rome. 1. The Shipwrecked Crew on Melita (vv. 1-10). Through the storm they lost their bearings, and when they were safe on land they learned that the island was called Melita. 1. The hospitable reception of the nafives (v. 2). They built a fire and made them as comfortable as possible from the cold and the rain. 2. Paul gathering sticks for a fire (v. 3). This is a fine picture of the world's greatest preacher and missionary not above pickling up sticks for a fire. The ability and disposition to serve naturally in whatever way is the evidence of capacity for great commissions. 3. Paul bitten by a venomous serpent (v. 3). With the sticks that Paul gathered there was a serpent. Perhaps it had already curled itself up for its winter sleep, but when the warmth of the fire aroused it it darted at Paul and fixed its fangs upon his hand. The natives expected to see him fall down dead, yet he shook it off, nothing harmed. At first the natives concluded that he was an escaped murderer and that this was retributive justice being meted out to him. When they saw that he was unharmed they concluded that he was a god. 4. Paul heals Kupilius' father (vv. 7-10). These people are now getting some return for their kindness. When this man of note was healed others came also and were healed. To this they responded in appreciation by loading them down with necessary supplies. 11. Paul Arrives at Rome (iv. 11-10). When Paul landed at Rome Christ's charge to the disciples was fulfilled. After three months' stay at Melita, Paul departs for Rome in the ship Alexandra, whose sign was Castor and Pollux. At Syræuse they were delayed three days, perhaps for favorable winds. At Puteoli he found brethren, at whose request he tarried seven days. At Apples-Forum and at the Three Taverns brethren from Rome met him. From Puteoli, the news went before Paul's coming, and so interested were the brethren that they came more than forty miles to meet him. This greatly encouraged him, for which he gave God thanks. No one, perhaps, ever enjoyed more close fellowship with God, and yet no man ever enjoyed more and derived more benefit from human fellowship than he. His readiness to preach the gospel at Rome, which he had expressed in the Epistle to the Romans, written from Corinth about three years before, was now realized. He was treated with great lenency at Rome, for he was allowed to hire a house there and live alone except that the soldier that remained his guard was constantly with him. Being chained to a soldier was rather irksome, but yet it gave him a chance to preach to the soldiers, which he could not have had any other way. He rejoiced in whatever circumstances, just so the gospel was prescheduled. III. Paul's Ministry in Rome (v. 17-31). 1. His conference with the leading Jews (vv. 17-22). He did not, as usual, wait for the Sabbath day to speak to the Jews. He only allowed one day for rest. His object was to have a fair understanding with them. When they came he endeavored to conciliate them. He told them that, though he came as a prisoner, he was not a criminal. Though his own countrymen had so sought his life, he did not come with an accusation against them. The result of this interview was that the Jews cautiously took neutral ground, but expressed a desire to hear, what Paul could say in defense, of a sect which was everywhere spoken against. The fact that this sect was spoken against is no evidence that it was wrong. Many times a thing may be wrong in men's minds, because their judgments are biased. If a thing is right in the sight of God it matters, not what men think about it. 2. Paul expounding the kingdom of God and persuading concerning Jesus (vv. 23-31). He pointed out a real kingdom—the Mesianic Kingdom with Jesus as the King. CONSENT. If you want to live in this world, doing the duty of life, knowing the blessings of it, doing your work heartily, and yet not abused by it, remember that the one power whereby you can act in that all shall be consecrated to Christ — Alexander Markham. Compliment of Believers. Now, may they be, if I recommend them, then give them his power, and if those men be granted the power that is might to give them — Christ 8:10.

Into life we came alone and out through the narrow black door each must go alone. That is one truth clear to everyone, and it is one fact that the crowd pushes aside until the last moment. The child plays through the evening until the appointed hour, putting aside the disagreeable thought to bed and to sleep," and at the end of the day's sport, at the last moment comes, please let me play one more hour." Man puts off the hour, forgets death and that lonely journey, and plays through his day and at the end pleads with life's wisdom, "please spare me a short reprieve, just another year, a month of a few days." Millions of mothers帮 with their children: today is endless, come to bed and sleep and on tomorrow when you get up you will feel fresh and will enjoy tomorrow's play better. But the child weeps and begs for just one more hour. The wisdom of all the ages says to man, "don't foolish, go to sleep; walk fearlessly into the darkness and be sure you will live again to play and work better." A thousand religions teach us that after death religious teach us that why do we fear death? When it only the door that every one goes through. Why fear what every one has done and everyone will do? We getting around, no putting off. We seeing the door better on tomorrow. In all baseless cooperation they try to do better, then began to travel by crawling, then began to improve, we began to walk and move from that, to horses and animals; then autos, and now flying machines. From the cave to mountains from the skin of beasts to the clothes we wear now, from the old nudge to loading shot gun which shot once then it took from 3 to 5 minutes to reload, to the machine gun, which shoots 500 times per minute. So it can plainly be seen that each day we are doing much and are improving, now from all the wisdom of the world: "Real life with all joys and, all there is to make a good time, lies beyond death's floor. All we have to do is to live right and when we get to the door of death stand up like a man, go through this door and see Life as it is and enjoy the blessing that the Almighty has for us. Let us all join hands here and suppress the fear of death as it is only a door that we have to pass through to everlast life. fest it was.

The subject for Sunday night is, "The Disarmament Conference now being held at Washington. Its relation to Bible Prophecy." The world is looking to this conference to put an end to war being about the long booked for Election Day. The conference is pruning books. China and India are looking to it to bring an end to their oppression. What does it mean to the Negro? The Bible, searchlight will be thrown upon these questions in a remarkable way.

Payne Of Howard In 58 Yard Run Nearly Turns The Tide. PAGE TWELVE Special to The Argus. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 30—Before ten thousand or more specialists in the National League Parks of Philadelphia, Pa., in the Howell Stadium, which throughout the season had remained victorious, and unsuspected uprising, tell before the Lincoln warriors in the annual football season of the year by a score of 13 to 7. On a field which was a variable, seaf of mud, the two teams ploughed mud deep through sub soil under the downpour of the strongest struggle to win the season's closing football event. The victors which went to Lincoln was stearned in the last period when Captain Law pulled a forward pass out of the air and ran down the field for 25 yards to the goal line. The Lincoln triumph was an unexpected goal came from Lincoln and Lincoln followers. Howard had all along been the favorite. Even utter Lincoln had made a touchdown in the first quarter which was closely followed by a touchdown and a goal by Howard in the second quarter, everyone felt sure that the "Blue and White" would equally remain victorious. Lafontaine Recieved at the page of the game, Lafontaine won the trophy and chose to receive the kickoff which went to Captain Law. Before Law was able to advance with the ball, he was down by a Howard player. At the very outset, Lafontaine called into play the "famous" "horton Smith" For a while the Law and warrior were unable to play for three downs and on the fourth punted. Howard recovered the ball but, garnered very little in running backs. She started down the field using the plunges, and in three downs gains six yards and on the fourth truss a "take-kick" which was unsuccessful, thus giving the ball down. The downs recorded to a series of off-tacks and yield drives which gifted them two first downs, landing them on Howard's yard line. Then a well-executed forward pass to Skinker brought the first touchdown. Lafontaine has ever failed to kick goal. At the kick goal, Howard scored the "The White" hold Lafontaine for downs after they had succeeded in making one first down. With the changing of goals in the second quarter, the disadvantage which Howard had experienced jim attempting to make glances over the goal skimmer, was the fact that he was After a number of line plunges, followed by a penalty to Lincoln for piling up, Howard came up to Lincoln's ball line. Payne, Howard's plucky back, was given the ball and he carried over for a touchdown. Brooks gave Howard a flicker, the owl behind the lars for the extra point. Rabbits Defy Weather The ending of the first half was the case for rabbits' exhibitions. The rabbits of both schools poured upon the hold in spite of its mild soaked condition and the continuous rain. The rabbits of both schools had exercised a wild shake dance while the Lincoln hole did its perennial dance. The weather fordished society exhibitions. The rain and spain kept the ladies in their seats, prohibiting the turtles parade of last year. The fact that Lincoln had soaked was a complete surprise to everybody. Lincoln hated being with the ladies and was annoyed in making the first score which had been neglected, against Howell this year, despite the fact that the Blue and White was a point ahead. When the second half opened they laked up, victoriously as something wished for, but sturely expected. Howell hites been dated then, during the exhibition, and the quarterback of last year's team, appeared on the field. The Howard section gave forth a roaring cheer upon the sight of Carter. Second Half Begins Lincoln kicked out to Howard at the opening of the second half. The Blue and White made a number of short gains before being compelled to punt. A number of short forward passes of Lincoln netted her a couple of goals. Carter quarterback of last year's team, appeared on the field.

Captain Lay Scores Winning Touchdown The fourth and last quarter opened with the ball in Howard's possession. The pigeon went over to Lincoln when an attempted pass on the fourth down failed. After a few minutes of play, Lincoln staged the surprise of the game by throwing the ball he intended to hit the line and tossed it 20 yards into the clear to the place where Captain Law had reached by raging away to the left into the open. The ball fell into Law's outstretched hands and he specifically ran down the field for 25 yards to the goal line for a touchdown. Lincoln McLean kicked, goal-hammering Lincoln into the lead by 6. Payne. Nearly Turns Tide Following the touchdown by Law, Payne/Howard's full back, brought the spectators to their feet with a 25 yard run from the kickoff. Again Ward showed her prowess by marching in the field to Lincoln's 4 yard line, making a turnaround for her to a touchdown was beginning, for a touchdown for holding her in inflicted carring her back for 15 yards. The Time and White was never able in overcrowd this handstand, and lost the ball down after Payne had gathered in a many forward rushes were tried by Howard but all failed. The game ended with the back near the center, of the field. Lincoln at last defeating the Howard machine by a score of 15 to 7. *Star Fayers On Both Teams* Payne, Carter and Captain Payne were Howard's forte. Donnelly, Howard's officer, offered two victories. Payne offered to retire in the first premise because of injuries. Payne came into the spotlight more than once with brilliant plays. Carter, Howard's quarterback of last year, showed him had lost none of his prowess. Captain Fuller's work was steady and reliable. For Lincoln, Captain Law, Park, Cotton and Skinner were well prepared and both on the offense and defense. His football career at Lincoln ended with his playing of his greatest game. Parr and Cotton were able assistants in the backfield and Skinner and Williams played strong on the line. Shoelon W.

"Christmas Seal" Your Christmas Mail" This is the request the Tuberculosis Society of Saint Louis is making of every man, woman and child in the City and Cohort this year. Ten million Christmas Seals have been consigned to St. Louis by the National Tuberculosis Association to be sold within this community to finance the fight against tuberculosis here. The money received will be used here the officers of the Tuberculosis Society announce, and if all the seals are sold the organization will be able to take care of its education and relief in a broader way, and with more far reaching results. The Society obtains support for the work it does from three sources; the annual sale of Christmas seals the annual Ball Game and voluntary subscriptions. Of those the largest and most important. Therefore the result of the Christmas Seal sale determines the program of health work and disease prevention which the Society can do. Through the sale of seals last year, the Society was enabled to save more than 715 self-supporting girls and women from poverty in the Nile and Day Camps, and to help these girls to greater efficiency and larger earning capacity through the classes in educational therapy conducted there.
