JUDGE CRITTENDEN CLARK TAKES OFFICE IN FOURTH DIST. GEORGIA TIRES OF REPUTATION FOR LYNCHINGS Twenty-Two Lynchers Indicted In State This Year. Four Have Been Convicted. Fifteen To Be Tried. Race Relations Committee Seeks Better Anti-Lynching Law. Eminent Jurists Appointed to Draft It. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 14 (Special to the Argus).-That there has been a surprising increase of anti-lynching sentiment in Georgia recently and a growing determination on the part of Georgia people that the sanctity of the law must be upheld, was clearly indicated in reports made to the State Committee on Race Relations in its recent semi-annual meeting in this city. It was pointed out that during the present year twenty-two indictments have been returned against, alleged lynchers and four convictions secured, carrying penitentiary sentences. Fifteen of these cases are still to be tried, most of them on the charge of murder, besides a number of damage suits growing out of injuries and losses inflicted by mobs. In one lynching case both the deputy sheriff and the chief of police are under indictment. The significance of these facts was emphasized by the statement that in the 74 years coding in 1921 there had been 430 lynchings in Greece and that record of only one indictment in all that time has been found. The State and county race relations committees have been active in a number of recent cases, conducting investigations, securing evidence, and other wise supporting local officials in their efforts to Vindicate the law. The need of an effective anti-lynching law in the State was stressed and the responsibility for drafting delegated to a committee of eminent jurists, headed by Judge Samuel B. Adams of Savannah.

REPUBLICAN CLUB OPPOSES SEN. SHIELDS Letter To President Harding Declares Senator Is Unfit For Place On U. S. SupremeBench. Sen.Spencer "Straddles" As Usual The Missouri Negro Republican League Club has sent President Harding and Senator Spencer letters protesting the appointment of Senator John W. Shields of Tennessee, to the United States Supreme Court bench. No reply has been received by the Club from the President, but Senator Spencer sent in a reply what is being termed as a "Stradler" as usual by members of the Club. Letter To President. St. Louis, Mo. Nov. 13, 1922 President Warren G. Harding. Washington, D.C. Your Excellency. - The Missouri Negro Republican League Club, representing the Negro voices of the State of Missouri, at their meeting Monday night, November 13th, went on record as being unalterably opposed the appointment of Senator John K Shields of Tennessee, to the Supreme Court of the United States. Senator Shields' past record is prima facie evidence that he cannot adjudicate cases fair and square in which our group is concerned. A man in whose heart is prejudice against any group of American citizens is unfit to sit on the Supreme bench. We would consider the appointment of a man of this type, as a direct ship at the fifteen million legal Negro citizens of America. — Trusting that you will give due consideration to our objection, we are. Very sincerely yours, Missouri Negro Republican League Club. J. W. McIntyre, President. E. T. Summyt, Secretary. United States Senate Your letter of November 15th came to my notice after several days absence from Washington.

DISABLED VETS HAVE LESS THAN MONTH TO APPLY FOR TRAINING Warning Sent Out That Vocational Training Applications Must Cause December 16. When Congress passed the "Sweet Bill" making possible the U. S. Veteran's Bureau and its work of rehabilitation disabled veterans of the World War, Dec. 16, 1922 was set as the final date for the filing of applications for vocational training, according to a communication from J. R. A. Crossland, Technical assistant to the Veterans' Bureau. Mor who received injuries during the war and who have not applied for their training have only until December 16, to make such application. The Veterans' Bureau in all departments has made strenuous efforts to get in touch with every man who has a war injury, but it is feared by Bureau officials that there may be some men who are still uninformed of their privileges under the Sweet Bill. Mr. Grover C. Davis, manager of the St. Louis' District, recently stated that one of the greatest tasks of his department was in getting information to the men. Mr. Davis and his assistants are especially anxious that the Colored ex-service men be informed on all their rights and responsibilities to the Bureau. Local Bureau officials have expressed it as their belief that the proper training and rehabilitation of the Colored men is one of their greatest tasks. Conditions lower which the Bureau nor the men have no control have restricted the possible profitable vocations for Colored men. The St Louis District, where most of the St Louis trainees reside, offers but little opportunity of employment to colored men in many of the vocations in which the men themselves and the Bureau officials would like to see the men trained. The Douglas Life Insurance and Tucker's Business College, however, have offered the Bureau earnest cooperation in rehabilitating the Colored men. Tucker's Business College has entered into tentative plans for the training of as many men as have the basic qualification for business training and the Douglas Life Insurance Company has firmly agreed to employ every disabled ex-service man who proves himself capable of coming up to the Douglas standard of efficiency. We Salaries and Saving. Mr. McJoseme McNamara, a Bureau Supervisor, who comes in contact with a large number of the Colored trainees has expressed serious concern for the men's future financial condition. The pay of Bureau trainees ranges from $190 to $162.50 a month. Most of the colored men are in training for vocations wherein a certain amount of capital with their completed training will establish the rehabilitated trainee in an independent and profitable business of his own. The salaries of men in training were determined after a careful government survey of the average cost of living in the community in which the man receives his training. Most of the far-sighted men who are in training, have found their pay liberal for necessary expenses and all the men who have an injurious knowledge of the future have slaving some part of their pay as a safeguard against the time when the government training and pay will cease. A Right. Vocational training with pay from government is the right of all those men who are sick or injured as the result of war service. All Bureau officials have expressed an earnest desire to see that all the men who are due these benefits, receive them. What a man does with his pay and the interest he takes in his pay is decided by the trainees themselves but the Bureau is doing everything possible to not only give the men pay and training, but in addition, to set the men on the right road to permanent and substantial success. In the matter of returning to normaly, automobile prices are furnishing a shining example.

SUPREME COURT HOLDS JAPS CANNOT BECOME AMERICAN CITIZENS Associated Negro Press. Washington. Nov. 22. Japanese are not eligible for naturalization in the United States. It was held today by the Supreme Court. In its findings, the court disposed of two cases, one brought from Hawaii by Tako Ozawa against the United States and the other brought by Taku J Yamashita and Charles Hio Koko against the secretary of state of Washington. In the latter case, both Japanese had been naturalized by a court of the state of Washington, but were firm on the ground that their naturalization was illegal. The lower federal courts denied naturalization in both cases, but the ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, in considering its decision and asked the Supreme sidinger the Ozawa case, suspended its decision and asked the Supreme sidinger the Ozawa case, suspended its decision and asked the Supreme court for instructions as to whether Japanese are eligible for citizenship under the naturalization laws. The question turned largely upon whether section 2109 of the revised statutes, restricting naturalization to "free white persons" and those of African descent, was valid. Associate Justice Justice Smith, who has recently been appointed to the Supreme bench delivered the decision and ruled that as the Japanese are not of the Caucasian race they are specifically barred by the statute—which has never been repealed or modified.

Don't miss your social club's parade at the football game next Thursday - Adew N.A.A. C.P. TO HOLD ELECTIONS Upon motion by some of the leaders of the St. Louis Branch, N. A. A. C. P., at their regular meeting for the annual election of officers, Oct. 24, at the Y. M. C. A., the local branch post pengal, the election to an inter date Lake Tabernacle, C. M. E. Chirch fendered the use of its apparatus for the election meeting and notice of the meeting, although delayed were distributed to the membership and read in every church of the city. The officers of the Association have expressed the determination to allow every member of the St. Louis Branch the opportunity of voting for the election. The crisis in the fate of the Diver not unbending Bill the recently noticed unbending delay of some railroads, at St. Louis as well as the general conditions facing the Negro at St. Louis have all tended to rouse the local Association leaders to a sense of the necessity of getting the Colored public interested. Although two attempts have been made at the annual election of officers and both have been postponed on account of the small attendance at both meetings the leaders of the local branch feel that the colored-public desires to have a word in the election. No cause can be determined for the small attendance at the two former meetings unless it is that the membership has not been sufficiently notified. For this reason and for the purpose of notifying every member with a certainty that the membership is notified the ST LOUIS ARGUS and the DOGLASS LIFE INSURANCE CO. the first through the columns and through all its offices, the city have offered their services. In addition the Executive Committee have directed the Acting Secretary to mail written notices to every member appearing on the books of the Association. The next meeting of the Association is to be held Tuesday, December 5, at Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Church. Every paid up member of the local branch is expected to be in attendance for the election. Come and hear Mrs. Hallett of the Mother Craft Council in her talk to parents and guardians at St. James A. M. E. Church, Sunday, November 28th, at 4 o'clock. Her subject will be "The Spiritual Aspect of Motherhood." PARENTS NIGHT AT The Boy's Division takes great pleasures in announcing its November Parents' Night for Friday, November 24th.

In this sixth annual edition, not only has much new material been added, but the information contained in previous volumes has been revised, rewritten and brought down to date. Over one hundred pages are devoted to the events of 1918-1921 as they affect the progress which, in the Reconstruction Period since the close of the World War, the Negro is making. The Negro Year Book is the standard work of reference on all matters relating to the Negro and is the most extensively used compendium of information on this subject. It circulates widely in every part of the United States and to a considerable extent in Canada, the West Indies, Central America, South America, Europe, Asia and Africa. The success of previous years has demonstrated that there is a need for a book which provides in an inexpensive form a succinct, comprehensive and impartial review of the events which affect the interests and indicate the progress Negroes are making. The Negro Year Book meets this need and at the same time furnishes a compact but comprehensive statement of Historical and Statistical facts arranged for ready reference. It is at once a useful resource. It is an encyclopedia of Historical and Sociological facts, a directory of persons, and a bibliographical guide to the literature of the subjects discussed. The Negro Year Book has the most extended and comprehensive bibliography which has been put out on the Negro in the United States. In addition to the topically arranged bibliographies at the end of the book, the reader will find throughout the volume, in connection with special topics further references to the subjects discussed. This is helpful to the student who wishes to pursue further the investigation of any particular subject. The 1921-1922 Negro Year Book, in addition to its interest for the general reader, is even more than the previous volumes especially adapted for use in schools where Historical and Sociological courses on the Negro are given. The price of the Negro Year Book, post paid is, paper cover, 50 cents; board cover, $1.00. Special rates to agents. Address THE NEGRO YEAR BOOK CO. Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.

A people, index with 'inquiry. Our country, which we delight to call the land of the free and the home of the brave, cannot in its condition today be compared to the Jewish nation at this period of its history. But while our government refuses to prohibit the sale of intoxicants or helps thousands of men each year into drunkards' graves, it does comparatively little to blot out marmon debauchery. While railroad corporation tempts the public to desecrate that day by offering special inducement, though exercising on the Lord's day. While the American churches give little more than a million dollars a year for the evangelization of heathen, American Christians spend over five million dollars in tobacco and there is not any use in warning. I wish to call the public's attention. We have in the country what you call the National-Humane Society. This society has many dogs and cats. Think of compassion in which an American man generously helps a dog in the garden is the greatest and most liberal on the globe. Yes, state in the union carries a black spot on civilization. This humane society has never in its report denounced lynching and burning of human beings. Think of hanging women who would soon become mothers. Think of the Southern white men taking one young girl or raising a family by them. If their parents make a complaint, they are taken out and killed or driven from their homes. I wish to say that the banner states of the Union are now floating over the gates of hell. The spirit of contamination controls the winds of the false graphit. The preachers who attempt to compare the works of Jesus Christ with the devil's hellish, damnable work of evil organization. The preachers that are deceiving the nations should be impeached from the pulpit and should not be permitted to function any longer. What the nations need is to be saved and their souls preserved with the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Kate L. Boswell. REMOVAL NOTICE MOST ATTRACTIVE DANCING PAVILION IN TOWN.

And the fight he puts up to win back his stolen property and the girl of his heart is thrilling enough for anyone. AT THE PENDLETON "The Old Homestead" will be presented at the Poodleton Theatre Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The picture is said to be beautiful and impressive and the various roles are in capable hands. Theodore Roberts, "the grand old man of the screen," will be seen as Uncle Josh, a part played by Mr. Thompson on the stage, for thirty-two years. On Wednesday, Dorthy Dalton will be seen in "The Siren Call," a picture built on the theme that if in her heart, a woman plays the game square, no matter what others think, she will win out in the end. Thanksgiving Day and Friday, John Gilbert will be featured in "Honor First." The story deals with the difference in character and temperament between twin brothers, both of whom served in the French Army during the war. Gilbert portrays both brothers.

THE LINCOLN No dramatic subject in the world can compare with this drama of mother love. "Where Is My Wandering Boy Tonight" makes use of this subject to the utmost.

It will be presented at the Lincoln Theatre Saturday. "The Fast Mall" will be shown on Sunday. This scenic melodrama on the screen is still bigger than the original production for with the wider scope of the camera, it was possible for the producers to visualize only what was suggested in the play. There still remains the great train scene, and the big spectacular fire effect, but added to these are a thrilling steeple chase, the race between a train and an automobile, the race between two Mississippi river boats ending with the blowing up of one, and a few other little exciting details.

Parker of La., to President Harding, ostensibly to seek advice and aid from the National Government in his fight against the Ku Klux Klan. In the first place, we have not heard of any sincere effort on the part of the Governor of Louisiana, to put a check to the activities of the Kluxters in that state, until now, and such a move on the part of the Governor after these many years of operations of the Klan in the state, we must confess that it looks suspicious to us. Upon hearing of the "holy" mission to the White House by the Louisiana Governor, the public will naturally want to know what has he done at home to check mob violence, and to stamp out Ku Kluxigm. Has he had the courage to use the power of his office or raised his voice or little finger against mob violence or lynchings? If he has not done these things, we repeat that his declarations against the Ku Klux Klan is not to be taken seriously. In fact, it looks like a game of cheap-politics seeking National notoriety. Our opinion of Governor Parker is that he is of the Ku Klux stripe, differing only in noise and methods. This opinion is strengthened by the fact that while he was presenting with one hand a petition asking aid of President Harding and Atty General Daugherty, he carried in his other hand a petition condemning the President and Mr. Daugherty for the appointment of Walter L. Cohen, a Negro as Surveyor of Customs at New Orleans. This is the typical spirit of the Ku Klux. The petition against Cohen is nothing less than a rebellion against the Government or the regular constituted authority who made the appointment. The charges against Cohen, as we understand them, are: That first, he is a Negro; second, he lives in the South; third, because he is a Negro, he has no right to be appointed to a Government position by the President of the United States. These are all the charges we find against Cohen. We do not see any difference between what Governor Parker and his cohorts are trying to do to Cohen, and what the K0 Klux Klan is trying to do for the State of Louisiana. It is said that after President Harding found out what the real mission of Parker was, the President gave him and his petition very little encouragement. While the Argus has nothing in common with the K0 Klux Klan, and would be tickled pink tea, to see a state or the United States Government Stamp it Out. Yet we have no sympathy for John M. Parker, in his professed action against the Khan. "He who seeks justice must come into court with clean hands." Congress is called by President Harding in extra session. The same Republican majority as was there when adjournment was had some time ago. From all reports, the Anti-lynching Bill is no merrier a Federal law than it was two years ago. We can't but feel that the only reason that such a bill is not a Federal law is because the Negroes are the principal victims. If that is the case, then, the country is in great need of men in the National law making body who can think and reason logically. Anybody who can reason at all, knows that toleration of lynching is to encourage mob-law; to encourage mob-law, it is only a question of time when orderly government will be overthrown. And while it is true today, that the Negroes are the principal victims of the mob-spirit, every man in Congress has seen the mob spirit grow until whites are the victims here and there. Just as sure as the humblest citizen may be lynched with impunity, just so sure may a Congryosman be lynched. To see the United States Senate dilly-dallying over this most important piece of legislation, we wonder what manner of men they be. The St. Louis Cultural Orphan Home is now about completed, a most beautiful structure it is. The formal dedication of that building will take place Thanksgiving Day. The public is invited to tour and inspect the home. The management has asked that each visitor bring along $1.00 donation to help make possible a home for the homeless. This request, we are quite sure will meet the general approval of the public, and a liberal response is expected. A child is helpless at its back, but an orphan with no home is sure to suffer. Many an orphan has made the most brilliant men and women, some of whom have contributed most to civilization. So we hope that those who give to help the helpless will have just such a thought in their mind, for no one can tell who stands before them when they look into the faces of the orphans of St. Louis who are to be cared for, petted and nurtured in this new home that has now been privileged for them. We should, therefore, not be satisfied with merely giving the dollar as requested by the board, but we should give as the Lord hath prospered on.

Pickens WEEKLY EDITORIAL THE "DAUGHTERS" OF THE CONFEDERACY They surely have not profited by the mistakes of their fathers. They cannot stand, for a "Rosevelt Tree" in Montgomery, Ala., but they are building a great monument to Jefferson Davis in Kentucky. The North has allowed the South to put up rebel monuments wherever the South was pleased to put theng even, on balanced ground like that at Gettysburg. Pa., where the forces of Union had a decided death struggle with the forces of disunion. At Gettysburg you will find monuments to Lee and to others of the rebels scattered all over the place, some of them erected by the Southern States to their various officers and troops. The North forgets, the South remembers. And yet the South prefers to be a marry and a victim of vindictiveness after the war was over. We do not believe that these "daughters" represent the spirit of the bravest of their own fathers. Subly the Confederates who died bravely at Gettysburg and Richmond would not feel proud of daughters who could not recognize the honor of a man like country and one of the most effective man of his times. Simply because they disregarded with the South in what most of the rest of the civilized world discovers with the South. "We be appointed a Negro postmistress, say the 'daughters' insist that a fine thing for women to say to complain that a great man rosses and that the rights of another woman—and that he chivalrous enough to do in spite of the race and color of that other woman. The trouble with these 'daughters' is that they are too used to the Southern type of 'chivalry', whose rises, death, by going 100 strong to lunch on Negro about his own women, while it merely raps and bestiaries, the whole colored people in so far as it can. The chivalry of Rossellow does not just those 'daughters'. They prefer the chivalry of those gentlemen who want a man to lift his hat in the presence of their wives, while they call his wife Annie." The sooner that these Confederate women realize that their real status cannot ever be much show that of Annie," the sooner they will want to see "Annie's" status chance. And the sons' wav and pulled up the Rowowet Tree below the daughters' (our mothers) did not like it. If we had charged the South with being backward and narrow, then would have answered that we were standing the South. Of course, Montgomery, Ala., is not the most advanced center of' the South, thank God! THE BLACK DROP You and then we see some photos of paper or magazine about a black body being LINKLY to be born to a white parent, even if only one of our parents has a single drop of blood. We never read that such bodies WAS born of such parents, but we always read the source for those that might happen. We even read a very thin (thin) of course about some gay woman, who was about to marry a man and when the accidentally discovered that one of her children was black, she jumped into the river, the first that the provincial baby might be still more permanently black. The best thing to do about such a case is that the anne she was about to marry was WAY over now a black body born of white or even white parents. If an anne could be born of parents that have a single drop of blood the nothing and not much less than half of white families of the South. Of course a flock of nature may grow upon a million million of a woman or a thousand one billion of the birth in the heart of Africa. There no white man has yet put him. And also people are sometimes with fish gills beached, man was maddened or more agitated a fish of his power, even like a dog, because it and dogs' ancestors were very natural. Next would a woman be maddened if she jumped into a river of downward because she disbelieved millions of years ago she had a dog for a grandfather, and that there is a many-million chance of her may the bridge will give! Think of it: if they expect to find squirrel, and then chasing propagation of small animals. If it were possible for a猪 with one group of Negroes and to have a black hog, then the dilution mutation throubles with quarter Negroes though, would have many black horses would have? Whenever a black angel comes up the white, or even in a mistified family, it is impossible for that family to make any of their neighbors believe and it is due to any boundary annoying "goal" blown. Directly because that there is no boundary with such a phenomenon, but they will be much more sensible and understandable organization than any multifaceted organization. The United States is the last place where fairly could make money with business in his hand we are not much successful and un- friendly. For we have a market in this country, that it is such a large were possible; more possible in other parts of nature. There will be many examples and simples. These cheap laws would be. The only laws it could help to try and justify the measures and problems in the world. UNMORTAL OWNERSHIP OF THE LAW In Who We Are the Most Supreme The Judge had the most whipped— in Tales the TENNESSEE the officer THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, NOV. 17, 1922 mob and helped to overcome the Negroes. You are not allowed to lick a mob in a mob-rulled country: It is the same offense as "resisting the law." WITHOUT THE SHEDDING BLOOD THERE IS NO RE-MISSION FOR SIN. In Tulsa the POLICE DEPARTMENT, which in a civilized community would have gone to the rescue of the ATTACKED, went to the help of the attackers,—loaned the guns from police headquarters to every white thug that applied for one. They armed the white population so indiscriminately, that they even gave guns to many who were even to disobey to return the weapons—and for weeks after the poor police were begging the newspapers, "wouldn't the borrowing guns be better to return the guns" that we loaned you. We only let you have them for use during the riot: (We have one of the clippings in our hands as we write). "We do not like to believe," walled the helpless police, that "anyone would deliberately keep these guns." And yet the police had loaned those guns to thugs and degenerates who wanted to take advantage of the disturbed conditions and "deliberately" kill and rob innocent and helpless Negroes—and any officers with any sense might have known that a man who is low enough, to kill and rob black people, is also low enough to steal a loaned gun. The Tuts police made a mistake in advertising for these guns. They took the social thought after the people were published, and tried to gather in and destroy the issue, but they were too late, some of the alert and reddened Negroes had got hold of Take note: it is not the cowardly mob alone that is responsible for the massacre of *resisting colored folk* The mob usually does what it did at Longview, Texas, duck and run—when they find that the man they went to get was "hooked." But the others of the law and the supposed "defenders of society" have been responsible for the largest part of the horror in every massacre of colored folk from Atlanta down to Tulsa. And now for the J.D. DIRECTORY. We told you the other week how a white woman, without being authorized to sell anything, sold Negroes in Chickasha, Okla. POLISON for medicine, at a dollar a bottle, killing four or five innocent girls. She was arrested at the instaname 'of a reputable Negro doctor. And what has happened? Why, a neat little scheme, was arranged thirsty Her 'brother' suddenly turned up and announced to the officers that her 'mother' was at the point of death', and she was released on $000 bail, to leave for unknown parts. The little money was nothing, she had sold $800 worth of the poison in Arkansas alone, when the Negroes were arrested. How could they punish a white adventurer in Oklahoma for poisoning a few Negroes, when she was just trying to make a little easy money off the dups? Perhaps she did not even know that the stuff would kill. Let Dyer or somebody else be instructed to introduce an anti-disturbance unit until the Negro votes he will and be able to touch the hearts of those "affected." Have you ever heard your friends say that the reason John Smith got a certain job was because he had a lot of "pull." Certainly you have! And then they proceed to hang a solar panel on Smith call the undertaker, and finally shroud him, for "temporary burial" all because Smith got the job and they or their friends did not get it. Paul which is nothing more than infomore which one can bring to bear in open fire. Indeed plays an important part in life. It, too, works to fuse the shroud, the ship, the stretches out with less more than its twin brother. "WIR GLIESNIP" BUT TUT STRETCHEN Directions need "pull." There's what it takes to get it. You must WORK. A man who gets pull must be a bachelor. Are you constantly taking friends in your life to make up for those you lose? Are you ever increasing the number of those who believe in you or who should not? Or do you always complain of turtles, narrow pieces of wood that never working to enlarge it? Do you want pull? Then see the good in "THESE PEOPLE" and talk about it. "As they think the risk," Don't feel forever on mental groups. Sing the praise of your thoughts and they will sing more. That belongs pull. "PULL, WINN." Pull won Rowney's big plaque in the hearts of Americans. He was good in other people. He worked and he got things done. He also could gift others to work for him. His shadow beginning over the whole world as a result of his work. And thereby gained things. He may never be Prime Minister again but he is no longer dead. He has PULL and knows it. Do you want FLLL that will help them make friends and validate their self-esteem? This does not mean to have them to your home for a week. It simply means to respect them for their worth. WITHOUT THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD THERE IS NO RE- MISSION FOR SIN. THE BOSTON EDITOR What significance has the above caption for the Negro or dark, races of this world? What is its bearing on the problems which confront the black man in America? It is my privilege to speak in behalf of that great group of the human race, black men and women whose ancestral home is Africa, but who in the providence of God, have been scattered all over the world. First, we have been told that in time of peace prepare for war, that without shielding of blood there is no reservation for sin." I shall make no attempt to undervalue our cardinal doctrines, but must say that in the matter of our Race, we have not only prepared ourselves for war, but have with a marked degree of pleasure given our blood freely from time to time to help lay the foundation of a new civilization upon these Western shores. Redemption through blood. Our race consciousness must be raised. The one broad principle which ought to be incubated by the leaders of our race is: That the destiny and preservation of our people depend on how closely we safeguard and appreciate our blood. Our inheritance of light and power will come only through blood. The progress of our Race in education is even more remarkable than our economic progress. Within a distance of sixty years, literacy has been reduced ninety per cent, but there is one particular thing that is barking, and that thing is our duty to one another. There is leadership growing up among us as it does in every race and it is to be hoped that through this leadership. Race consciousness will lead to race understanding and not to race boastfulness to false dreams, but to the thing that it is everlasting—BLOOD! Reward of Fate Friends Let the man of color distress those false friends who misleave with him to get his money, who seek alliance with him on the common ground of aggression. The Negro has a better right in America and a deeper stake in the war of the country than have many of those who have appointed themselves to the friends and crusades. The Negro can also prove his superiority by respect his blood and kind. We can obtain such superiority by actually fulfilling his ideal destiny. Joining the slims of the times, I am more confident that my fight for the captain of life is a winning one. WAY TO BE TRIED FOR KILLING SWEETHEART TEN YEARS AGO.

DEATH OF LENA GORDON It is with a deep feeling of sympathy to her parents that we note the death of Lena Gordon, thirteen years of age daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Gordon at 141st West Bell Pt after a severe attack of an abcess on the brain. She passed away on Nov. 17th and was buried in the family lot at Ruchport, Mo. on the 14th inst. Lena was a girl of great promise in many departments of life, a good scholar, a mind always ready for new developments; and had she lived, she would have attained quite a position in the educational and musical pursuits of life. She was a member of the Anfloch Baptist Church and was a shining light among the young people in her Sunday school and church societies of which she was an active member. The funeral service was conducted by the Rev. Dr. Perry, pastor of the church, who paid a lovely tribute to her zealous work and Christian character. A chorus of girls and boys sang some of her favorite songs, and Dr. Perry commented most tenderly on the first seven verses from the 12th Chapter of Eccl., assisted by Rev. W. H. Peck. Her body was tenderly borne by her uncles and cousins as pall bearers and escorted by eight flower girls, her most intimate school friends, and the members of Silver Leaf Club, of which she was secretary. A most lovely lot of flowers from many of her loved ones expressed the high esteem in which she was held. She recited an last that beautiful fare. No need for the weary one to wait. The robes were such as angels wear: The gate: few open—she entered there. Card Of Thanks To Rev. W. L. Perry, Rev. W. H.

Manning, Former Views On Delayed Legis Hands Of National C The Bill Not Passed Still Has Its NEW YORK. Nov. 22. (Special)—All the Republican leaders of the Harding administration, since the coming into control of the Harding administration, have said that they favor the Dyer Anti Lynching Bill. President Harding said he favored it. Vice-President Coolidge said he favored it. Speaker of the House, Gillet, s. in he favored it. / _____ he favored it. Senator Lodge, leader of the Republican Senate, said he favored it. Senator Frelinghuysen, New Jersey Senator, said he favored it. New York's, Senators. Calder and Wadsworth, said they favored it. France, Curtis, Watson all of the Republican Senators close up and high up in the Harding administration, say they favor the Dyer Bill. John T. Adams, Chairman of the Republican National Committee, said he favored it. Senator McCormick, Chairman of the Republican Senate Campaign Committee, said he favored it. Congressman Fess, who was Chairman of the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee until nominated for United States Senator in Ohio said that he favored the Dyer Bill. Yet, with all this powerful political array of influence the Dyer Bill failed to pass in the Senate. It was simply favored to death. It was as unanimously favored, as it was unanimously shelved. Multi-millionaire Senator T. Coleman du Pont said he favored it too. These big and these powerful Republicans perform in those things that they want done. They did not perform with reference to the Dyer Bill. It slept in Senate Committee until it was dug up and dug out to make votes. It did not even get a serious discussion in the Senate, and politics was played with it only on the day before adjournment. In the fact of this, to the teeth of these facts, Colored voters are being told to vote for "our friends who favor the Dyer Bill" and are being told thus by colored people who are intelligent enough to know better. The Dyer Bill passed the House solely as a vote-maker and with no serious intention of it becoming a law. Congressman Martin R. Madden is influential enough to become Chairman of the powerful Committee on Appropriations of the House and get a relative appointed Second Assistant Postmaster General. He is in the Harding administration inner circle. Colored people call him "one of our friends." He got other big things for himself, but he failed to function his powerful influence for his Colored district in getting the Harding administration leaders to pass the Dyer Bill in the Senate. Congressman Fess, of Ohio could be become Chairman of the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee, and he could swing the Republican nomination for Senator in Ohio, but he could not swing the Harding administration into passing the Dyer Bill. Fess could get what he wanted for his own advancement, but he could not advance the Dyer Bill to passage. Fess is also referred to by Colored people who ought to know better, as "one of our friends who favor the Dyer Bill." It will pass the next time they say. The short session of Congress will be given to the supply hills, to ap- propriation necessary to keep the Government functioning. President Leading L. S. WILLIA Undertaker Harding is also going to press his ship Subsidiary legislative program at the short session of Congress. The Dyer Bill will not have a look-in. Harding is not going to disturb the social and political atmosphere of Washington with the Dyer Bill when he has what he considers "more important" legislation to press for passage. There will be not time for the consideration of the Dyer Bill. Those who say the Dyer Bill is going to press next time are saying to hold their Colored vote. They are playing politics. *More than a year, before the last Republican National Convention Senator George H. Moses introduced a Senate Resolution that had reference to reducing of Southern representation. In Congress, Senator Moses soon appeared on the political scene as trying to get Colored delegates in the South favorable to General Woods nomination for President. Since then no one has heard from Senator Moses and his particular Senate resolution. Reduction of Southern representation in Congress was long used at a Republican political game to hold the Colored vote. It was passed under the name of the Crumpeter Bill. That scheme died away and now the Dyer Bill is taken up as "good politics" with which to hold the Colored vote. Crampacker Bill and Dyer Bill are political brothers of the same Republican political filmam family. JOSEPH C. MANNING. Herald Square Hotel. New York City. Ex-Congressman J. R. Lynch Celebrates 75th Birthday Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO, Ill. Nov. 22—Ex-Congressman John K. Lynch celebrated his seventy-fifth birthday by being the guest of honor at a banquet held in his honor by the Men's Club of St. Thomas' Episcopal Church on the night of Thursday, November Ninth. About 400 members of the club and about 50 guests were in attendance. President Tidrington presided and the principal addresses were delivered by Engene H. Marshall and W. H. A.

Seventeen Points Of Progress Made By The M.E. Church Dr. I. Garland Penn Tells Of Unusual Accomplishments Involving An Expenditure Of Two Million Dollars For Education Of Race. Associated Negro Press. CINCINNATI, Ohio, Nov. 22.—The great advance movement in the Methodist Episcopal Church, by which fifty millions of dollars have been expended in benevolent uplift of the races of the world, has reached the Negro in America and is greatly benefitting him through the Board of Education for Negroes of that Church. The Annual Meeting of the Board has just been held and Dr. I Garland Penn, Cincinnati, Ohio, one of the Corresponding Secretaries of the Board, has issued "Seventeen Points of Progress," showing what has been accomplished in the past three years for the education of the race. These seventeen points of progress turn the snow light upon an unusual accomplishment, involving an expenditure of two million dollars in new buildings, endowment, advancing teachers' salaries and equipment. The seventeen points of progress are as follows: 1. Additional teachers have been chosen, and the salaries of the teachers have been increased so that the total annual salary budget amounts to $200,000 as compared with $100,000 five years ago. This is raising the standards of all the schools because of the increased efficiency of the teachers. 2. Every building of the nineteen institutions has been required and imp proved. Some of them had not received a coat of paint in years because of inadequate funds. 3. Heating plants have been installed at all the institutions under the direction of the Board. Not one smoky store or fireplace remains. Comfort, as well as greater safety for life and property, has thus been provided. 4. Large additions are being provided for science departments. 5. A new property valued at $360,000 at Meridian, Mississippi, has been purchased and is now known as the Hyatt Institute and Conservatory of Music. This provided a Conservatory of Music in the heart of the Black Belt of Mississippi. 6. A new property valued at $155,000 has been purchased, Nashville, Tennessee, Walden College, formerly known as Walden University. The buildings are being remodeled at a cost of $20,000. This will make a larger and more successful Walden, and perpetuate the first institution begun by the Freedman's Aid Society, now the Board of Education for Negroes. The future of the school was never so bright. 7. Following the purchase of the new property at Nashville for Walden, there was transferred to Mekharry Medical College all of the old Walden University property adjoining Mekharry, valued at $100,000. The Medical College will have all the ground and additional buildings needed for expansion in the future. Extensive repairs and additions were made for the opening of Mekharry in October. 8. The sum of $290,000 has been contributed to the endowment of Meharry Medical College Nashville, Tennessee. The General Education Board and the Carnegie Corporation has given an additional $300,000 toward the endowment, making a total of $500,000 for Meharry endowment. Efforts are now under way to secure another $500,000 to make the endowment one million. 9. An administration and school building, also a refectory, have been erected at Wiley College, Marshall, Texas, all the old buildings being newly renovated and additions made. the total cost being $125,000. 10. An administration and school building have been erected at Clark University, Atlanta, Georgia, with modern chapel and gymnasium, and each equipped with modern furnishings at a total cost of $230,000. 11. A girls' dormitory and a refectory have been erected at Bennet College, Greensboro, North Carolina, at a total cost of $100,000. 12.

Secondary: Garland Penn is the only Negro on the Committee of Twenty-Five to prepare the Advance Program of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which is to follow the present tenure period. In announcing upon the future of the Negro in the Methodist Episcopal Church he said the advance in education and evangelism of the Negro had just begun and that more would be done in enlarging church and educational blasts in the next ten years than had been done in the next thirty. Secretary Penn stated that the nineteen schools have opened with the strongest facilities ever employed in the history of the Board's activities and have the largest attendance of students. During the scholastic year 1921-22 there were 6,353 students in the institutions with 491 teachers, an increase of 19 teachers and 600 students over the previous year. The current expenditures of the nineteen institutions amount to one million and forty thousand dollars for the year 1921-22, which is just twice the sum expended five years ago. Secretary Penn states that the Methologist Epossial Church will see its institutions for the education of the New York through to the largest possible usefulness.

WOULD HAVE BEEN HARD TO LIBERATE SLAVES NOW SAYS PRESIDENT LOWELL Harvard Man Declares Slavery Might Have Become Enmeshed In Exploitation Of Africa By European Powers. By W. A. Aery Associated Negro Press BOSTON, Mass. Nov. 22—President A. Lawrence Lowell of Harvard University, in a recent address, delivered in Old South Church, quoted Travelyan as saying that it was well that the anti-slavery societies succeeded in their work of liberating the slaves before the present exploitation of Africa by European powers began or else slavery might have become enmeshed in the world's fibres so that nothing could tear it loose. "The triangular trade conducted from New England was most, inquitous." declared President Lowell. "Masses was brought from the West Indies, made into rum in New England, carried to Africa and traded for slaves, which were then transported by the shipboard to the West Indies." "We over the colored man four things," said President Lowell "our sympathy, above measures, for the suffering that he has gone through and that he is going through; justice, that he be judged by the law and that he should have protection from violence, for which there is no excuse; opportunity to achieve anything that he is capable of achieving in any career or profession, any thing that his abilities make him able to do, for a man is happy when he is doing what he is best fitted for; and our thought on his problems his needs, his talents and his capacities. "It is not only in the South that there are discriminations against the colored man. In the North there are some trades from which the colored man is virtually excluded. We have not discovered what the colored man's greatest capacities are. "A man has a right to self-respect. He has a right to the respect of his self-respect, which comes from developing one's best abilities. "Hampton Institute is educating a large number of colored boys and girls. It is assuring them of an independent living and is therefore assuring them of self-respect." President Lowell urged the members of the large congregation to see Hampton "for the sight of if it is an inspiration."

Organization Effected To Boost Candidacy of Washington, D.C., Minister At Convention In St. Louis Next Month. PETER H. DR. M. W. D. NORMAN Pastor Metropolitan Baptist Church Washington, D. C. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 20. Organization was effected this week looking to the election of Dr. M. W. D. Norman, famous Minister and Pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church. on "KR" street, this city, to be President of the National Baptist Convention. The executive head of the National Body of Colored Baptists is the highest position in the Church and is coveted by the leaders of the faith among the colored people. Local Indorsement Dr. Norman, who is a great favorite among the local churchmen, was indorsed last Monday in an enthusiastic meeting of the Baptists Minsters' Convention, which is composed of 175 Ministers of the Gospel and 35,000 communicants. Resolutions were offered by Dr. William D. Jarvis not only indorsing Dr. Norman, but pledging the Baptist family of the District of Columbia and vicinity to 'invest its best Christian endeavors to bring about the election of Dr. Norman to the Presidency of the National Baptist Convention at its next meeting in St. Louis, Mo. December 6, 1922.' Commanding in appearance, loved by his conferers, learned not only in the scriptures, but in, the rules of order; brilliant as a pulpit orator, Dr. Norman presents an ideal claim for preferment. He has established a vast contact with the Baptist people throughout the country. Born in North Carolina, August 27, 1867; educated at the State Normal School, Plymouth, N. C., and at Shaw University; he prepared for his brilliant career by finishing up his equipment with a Special Course at Emerson School of Oratory at Boston, Mass. Later the Degree of Master of Arts was conferred upon him by Shaw University and the Degree of Doctor of Divinity, by Virginia Seminary and College, Lynchburg, Va. In 1912 the Degree of Doctor of Laws was given him by Gundalaupe College of Texas and 1920 from Freidlinghausen University, Washington, D. C. Dr. Norman married Miss Fannie Bridges; an alumnus of Shaw University. He was Dean of the Theological Department of Shaw University from 1893 to 1896; President for five years of Roanoke Institute, Elizabeth City, N.C., during which time he officiated as Pastor in his native state. Then he was called to the Pastorate of Eleanor Baptist Church Portsmouth, Va., and in four years doubled the membership of that congregation. From Portsmouth he was called to the leadership of the Metropolitan Baptist; Church, of this city, which is one of the largest and most influential churches in the connection. It has increased under his leadership from 600 to 6,000 and raised over a quarter million of dollars, paid all debts and now has a large bank balance to its credit. He has appeared as a publicist, as editor and author of several standard Church Publications; and possesses a wonderful personality, affable in manner and sympathetic in disposition, which cedars him to all with whom he comes in contact. The activities of the National Baptist Convention are not new to Dr. Norman. For years he has been prominently identified with the National Body and has contributed his fine ecclesiastical diplomacy to the settlement of many moot problems. He favors the unification of all Baptist Forces in the country; the highest development of the various Boards to a point of efficiency in Christian service; careful auditing in every expenditure and the installation of clearly defined Business methods. In the conduct of the affairs of the Denomination. Withal, he presents the claims of a logical, efficient, deserving candidate logical, efficient, deserving candidate to succeed the late, incarnated Dr. L. C. Morris. He will go up to St. Louis with the strongest support of any of the aspirants to the high places. Dr. Norman, located here as the head of the National Baptist Convention would not only be in close touch with the President, his Cabinet and Members of Congress, but he would be a treasured force for good for Negroes generally. PAGES 7 TO 12 Says Africa Is The Continent of Great Misunderstandings Chairman Of International Commission Tells Of The Wealth of Resources, Natural Scenery, And Sanitary Possibilities. Associated Negro Press. Associated Negro Press. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 22.—Africa should be referred to as the "Continent of Great Misunderstandings" rather than the "Dark Continent." and its vast potential strength in raw materials and in the development of its native peoples should be stressed instead of emphasizing the jungle savagery; such is the theem of a resavagery; such is the theme of a report made by an international commission after an intensive study of African hygienic, social, and religious conditions. The report has been published by the Phelps-Stokes Fund. The commission, composed of exports in educational and missionary fields, spent ten months in Africa, during the fall of 1920, and the following winter, traveling more than 25,000 miles through West and equatorial Africa. Scores of schools and mission stations, supported by Churches of America and Europe were visited, Colonial officials and European traders were consulted and Native chiefs interviewed. The personnel of the commission included Dr. Thomas Jesse Jones, chairman, writer of the official report, Stokes Fund and author of "Negro director of education of the Phelps Schools in the United States;" James Ehmann Kwigwyl Aggrieve, a member of the Fanti tribe of the Gold Coast who is a professor in Livingstone College, North Carolina; Dr. Henry Stanley Hollenbeck of Wisconsin, who for twelve years has been a medical missionary for the American Board in Angola; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur W. Wilkie of Scotland, missionaries of the United Free Church of Scotland, appointed by the Conference of Missionary Societies of Great Britain and Ireland to represent the British Societies, and the Rev. Leo A. Roy of New York, an expert in industrial education, served as secretary. Besides the backing of the various missionary societies, the commission was accorded the hearty co-operation of Government officials. Educated Africans showed members of the Commission every courtesy and gave them a cordial welcome. The report says: "Of the many misconceptions, that still tend to limit the investment of capital in African Industry and agriculture, to hamper the efforts of Colonial governments and to discourage the support of missions, there are four of such importance as to require consideration in any effort to evaluate the educational possibilities. They are: Misunderstandings as to wealth of resources and natural scenery; the healthfulness of the continent and promising possibilities of sanitary improvements; the improvability of the African peoples; and European and American influence." Dr. Jones points out in the report that the immense and varied physical resources of Africa are practically unknown to the civilized world largely because the researches so far have been made for private and governmental use and the results have not been published, and that there is sufficient evidence of potential wealth to convince the most skeptical that Africa is the undeveloped treasure house of the world. The diamond fields of Kimberly, the gold ridge of Johannesburg, the coal mines of Rhodesia, the Kataanga copper plateaus of Belgian Congo and the oil areas of Angola are cited as specific instances of the country's richness in natural resources. The report continues: "Africa's reputation for unhealthfulness was the result of the tragic experience of those who entered the continent, without knowledge of the conditions or indifferent to the hardships always attending the entrance of pioneers into a new country. A fair comparison of Africa with other parts of the world will undoubtedly show that Africa will respond to modern methods of sanitation and hygiene in exactly the same way as other continents of similar climatic, economic and social conditions." Setting forth, that the most unfortunate and unfair of all misunderstanding is that the African people do not give promise of development sufficient to warrant efforts in their behalf, the report says: "The improvability of the African people is clearly shown by their response to the efforts of missions, governments and commercial organizations. There are physicians, lawyers and ministers who have completed the requirements of European universities. While the number is small it is insufficient to move the capacity of the people. The clerical tasks of government, industry, and commerce are largely entrenched to young African men. The technical operations on railroads, and in construction are more and more being taken over by African workers. Brief mission gives emphatic positivity to the value of the Native teachers and ministers. The importance of a comprehensive educational system is emphasized and Dr Jones recommends that annual notatis be provided for the teaching of both boys and girls. His plan also calls for the development of colleges and professional schools for the training of the native leaders within whom Dr. Jones says the general and rare of Africa cannot be accomplished. 2635 Market St. St. Louis R.

M. E. Church, Monday evening, Nov. 20, at 2 p. m. Mr. Smith's death was caused by an accident of a runaway team while at work Thursday evening, Nov. 16th. He was alone at the time of the accident, no one knows the full facts in the case, but it is supposed that the team became frightened at the noise of the train rush throwing Mr. Smith beneath the wheels of the wagon, wounding him finally. He was cared for by a near by neighbor, who reported his condition as soon as she was able. The heart of the dear mother, Mrs. Smith, became faint in the reception of her dear son, who was wounded beyond recovery. The skilled physician put forth every effort to save his life, but all hopes were lost. His dying words to his mother, were "rest is so sweet. It was not strange to hear such beautiful words from one whose life was as pure as a lily. In the home where he was a star of unusual magnitude, in the community he was an example worthy of imitation. In the church he was a brilliant star in Zion. He was loved by everyone. Everyone spoke in commendable terms of him. Well did Rev. Pitcher say, he is above the average, well did he say that he cannot return to us but we may go to him. To the sisters and brothers, father and mother may we say, weep not your loss is heaven's gain, for North surely did live so that he only wrapped the drapery of his couch about him and laid down to pleasant dreams.

Approaching the "Conclusion of The Whole Matter," what of the Negroes future in America. The whole duty of the white man toward the Negro will be performed in reporting all prejudices, and exending to him complete economic/inlectual and social freedom, together with full cooperation looking toward its advancement. Then, he must work out his own salvation. "If he succeeds, so far as good credit to any people, his will be the credit. If he succeeds, the goal of his ambition, he and his alma will be responsible. Nothing will be so necessary to the failure success and happiness of the colored race in America as wise counsel on the part of its leaders, and sound practical judgment, upon the part of the masses composing in White. discrimination is necessary. Place and position cannot be assumed by anybody, either white or black. Neither is progress possible by way of pre-impression. Nothing could so easily and quickly precipitate racial disturbances and riots, nothing so surely makes racial progress by Negroes impossible as for them generally without reference to economics, intellectual, moral, and social standing among their own people, to presume that willfulness and arrogancy they could break into white circles and "Demand" all sorts of recognition". Peace and progress come not in this way. Position is attained—not demanded and assumed. His life is safe to say that no nove Negro in New York of recognition ever demands that to which he is not entitled by virtue of ability and achievement. In working out his racial salvation, with all blindernaces removed, very great opportunity for distinguished service to society as a whole is now open to the Negro. In chivalry toward women, politeness and courtesy, toward all people, colored men of today are in position to set high examples before men generally, because, naturally, the Negro is polite. Demonstrated respect for and courtesy toward women on the part of men, generally, is becoming a lost art. Not one man in fifty, either white or black, in northern cities ever offers his seat to a standing woman in a crowded car: Few men move their bats when ladies are present. Time was, in the South, when all men, white and black were in every way courteous to women, but even there they are not so polite and considerate as once they were. Perhaps, as some claim, in these days of the "New Woman." women themselves, are largely responsible for the lack of courtesy shown by men. But there can really be no "New Woman" and more than there can be a New Negro. "There may be new and false ideas, relative to both women and Negroes, but it is a sad day for society when women forget that they are women, and men cease to regard and treat them as such. Likewise, it is a sad day for the Negro in society, when he forgets his instinctive politeness and treats ladies generally as white men treat them. Nothing could so quickly and effectively elevate Negroes as a class, as if, in working out their social satisfaction, they to a man put the white men of today to shame, by following their natural inclination in being polite and courteous to all women everywhere. Whether every woman appreciates it or not, Negroes owe it to themselves to be gentlemen at all times and in all circumstances. A general organization of the movement among Negroes looking to this one thing would soon work a social revolution of politeness. Un-hady-like women, and ungentlemenly men would all be put to shame by such universal practice on the part of Negroes. CURRENT AND OTHERWISE By W. H. A. Moore Associated Negro Press Social developments of the past few months fill ope with the wonderment of a deep perplexity. The "Nordic Group" is having a devil of a time of it. The stressfulness of the situation is so acutely overbearing that a tender hearted "Inferior" like myself is moved to an emotional exhilaration of tearing bedding that in other times than these, would be quite sufficient to drive me to drink much of that which has been legally outlawed by the omnipresent inhabitations of the 10th Amendment to the organic law of the Nation. It's an awful case. There is Ski on one side, Harry Wills on the other, the Eskimo in front, the d-d Turk sticking them in the back, and the low-browed, intemperate, dishonest and pestiferous Japanese standing off to one side laughing foolishly a "fox the whole blank business." And yet, what is it all about: Nothing more than the world is on the verge of losing something that it can very well do without. The "Nordic" has had his chance and made a dismal failure of the opportunity. If not, why the howl? "Nordic" as a matter fact is a big joke. The present dominant race groups are bastard types produced by a string of assimilations as long as the right arm of the grey eyed Gorilla, and as far down in first origin as it is possible, for the human species to find a beginning. Granting that it was valiantly attempted to do its share of what has ever been the effort of the human family to create for itself the conditions of what it THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS family. It was the arid minded Mommie who gave out the dictum that "a mongrel people can never attain real prosperity" "Prosperity" is a fluid term. Rather its implications are fluid. The Germanic social instinct is sustained by the Germanic speech. The Germanic philosophy of life, however, is servicable only to the measure of its response to the universal need of the human family. Kant and Goethe belong to the world of men. Bismarck and Mommies are Germans only and therefore of no final true value to humankind as a harmonious whole. The Negro will eventually come into his own. By his own I mean he will be given the opportunity to evoke a civilization out of which will come, not the eliminations of struggle, the steadfast maintenance of the principles, of right living. I am able to set aside the theological aspects of life, the steadfastness and I oppose all dispositions to substitute the actualities of living with the transcriptions of spiritualisms of any sort. The African has in him the power to revitalize human life and thereby provide those spiritual essences within which are to be found Civilization in its truest and holiest aspects. The Nordic is a huge joke and soon will be a thing, of a dim and misty past. EDITORAL SQUIRS 'The colored vote is growing very colored. It seems to be giving more attention to the policies than it is to jobs. There is a scar city of news from the "Kitchen Cabinet". It maybe that the "Cabinet" is busy "cooking up" new deals.

FRENCH DRIVEN OUT OF SYRIA Arab Pressure Proves Too Great For French Imperialists Who Anounce Intention To 'Retire.' Crusader Service. Damascus, November 15th— It is quite probable that the French will quit Syria in the course of next year as a result of the revolutionary sentiment here and of the Turkish peace conference. The Kemalists intend to demand a plebiscite of the Arab territories formerly belonging to the Turkish Empire and now held by the Allied Thieves under the terms of the treaty of Serrves which the Turkish Nationalists do not recognize. The possibility of the French retreating from Syria at once brings up the question of the situation of the British in Palestine and Mesopotamia where they are just as unwelcome as the French in Syria. The British hold these territories by virtue of the now defunct Syrena treaty, and if making a new treaty the Turks refuse to continue the arrangement, the relations between the British and the Kemalists might become difficult. The imperialists threed indicate that they would habit of giving up anything easily which has been grabbed by them. On the other hand, it is certain that they would not continue to hold these territories in the face of Turkish opposition backed by, or lacking the nationalist sentiment in the territories. $220,000,000 A YEAR The Medical World is authority for the statement that nearly two hundred and twenty millions of dollars are annually paid to physicians and surgeons for consultation and advice alone—to say nothing of the vast amount paid out for medicine.

P. is all it is recommended to be, and advise all sick women to take it as a general tonic, as well as for female organs. I have tried doctors and other remedies, but have found nothing that helped me as St. Joseph's G. F. P. has. I began to feel stronger and like a different woman by the time I had taken one bottle. I want every sick woman to just give it a trial and really believe that several bottles of this great female remedy will cure any female irregularities. You may see this as you wish—Mrs J. R. Newby, 792 Richmond. Mrs. Newby certainly wouldn't want other women to use St. Joseph's G. F. P. if it did not help her, and your dear dearest would not guarantee to give your money back of he did not think it would give you relief. St. Joseph's G. F. P. is soft for $100 everywhere—Advertisement. St. Josephs G.F.P. SundaySchool Lesson (By REV. P. B. FIZZWATER, D. D. Teacher of English at the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago) Copyright, 1822, Western Newspaper Union. LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 26 JESUS THE GREAT MISSIONARY LESSON TEXT - Luke 81:18 GOLDEN TEXT - The Sign of Man is come to seek and to save that which is loot - Luke 13:10 REFERENCE MATERIAL-Matt. 4:23. P-X-M PRIMARY TOPIC-Jesus Brings a Little Girl Back to Life JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus the Great Missionary. 1. The Great Missionary's Field (vv. 1-3). He went throughout every city and village. The true missionary goes to everybody, for all need the gospel. 1. His Message (v. 1). He reached the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. The gospel message is truly good tidings, for the great King is offering to rebellious sinners salvation through Jesus Christ. 2. His Helpers (v. 1). The twelve apostles were with Him. The missionary should utilize the help of others. 3. Supported by Saved Women (vv. 2-3). Out of grateful hearts certain women who had experienced the saving power of the gospel ministered unto Jesus of their substance. 11. The Great Missionary Teaching (vv. 4-21). 1. The Parable of the Sower (vv. 4-21). (1) the sower—Jesus (see Matt. 13:27). (2) The seed—the Word of God (vv. 11). (3) The kinds of ground (vv. 5-8). (a) Wayside (v. 5). This foot-trodden path pictures the hard-hearted upon which no impression can be made. The preached word finds no entrance, and Satan's snatches it away as birds pick up the grain from the hard-beaten path. In such cases faith cannot spring up and result in salvation (vv. 12). (b) Stony ground (v. 6). This is not stones mixed with earth, but a thin layer of earth on a ledge of rock. The seed falling upon such earth springs up quickly, but the plant soon dies when exposed to the sun. This pictures the hearer who receives with joy the message of the gospel, but when persecution and trials come because of following Christ he gives up and deserts the cause (vv. 15). (c) Thorny ground (v. 7). This ground is good, but it has thorns, growing in it. The seeds spring up, but the plant has no room to develop. This pictures the Christians who bear no Christian fruit because of being preoccupied with "cares, riches and pleasures" of this life (vv. 14). (d) Good ground (v. 8). The seed here sprang and bore fruit to the full measure. This pictures the honest heart which receives the gospel message and allows it to produce in its life a full harvest of grain (vv. 15). The application of this parable is found in verses 16-18. 2. Kinship with Jesus Christ (vv. 19-21). Jesus teaches here that there is a relationship to Him which is closer than the tie of blood. III. The Great Missionary Doing Wonders (vv. 22-39). 1. Calming the Storm (vv. 22-25). 1) Jesus anseep (v. 23). While the disciples were sailing the ship the Master fell asleep. (2) The frightened disciples (vv. 23, 24). As their ships were filled with water the disciples awoke Jesus with their cry of peril. (3) Jesus rebuked the wind and water (vv. 24). As His word there was a great calm. (4) Jesus rebuked the disciples (vv. 25). He did not rebuke them for waking Him, but for their lack of faith. 2. Casting Out Demons (vv. 28-39). Demon possession was in that day, and is today, an awful reality. (1) Jesus met by the demonic (vv. 28-29). (2) Jesus' question (v. 30). The purpose of this question doubtless was to bring the real man to consciousness—to enable him to distinguish between the demon and himself. (3) The demon's request (vv. 31, 32). They asked permission to enter into a herd of swine. It seems that the demon has a dislike for disembodiment. The devil cannot act without Divine permission. (4) The request granted (vv. 32, 33). Just why this was done we do not know. Since Jesus did it we must believe that it was wise. (5) The effect upon the people (vv. 34-37). (a) The keepers of the swine went and made it known in the city and country. (b) The people made investigation. They saw the man clothed and in his right mind, and heard the testimony of those who had seen what was done. (c) Besought Jesus to depart from them. (6) Request of the man whom He healed (vv. 28, 39). He desired to be with Jesus. This was natural and right, but his responsibility was to go home and show them what great things God had done for him. Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, to visit the widow and the fatherless in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.—James 1:27. Aiding the Weak. We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.—Koepkins 15:1. The Wise Man. A wise man will make more oppor- tunities than he hides.—Bacon.

LANE TABERNACLE Presiding. Eldeg. Lander at. Lane Tubercule. Sunday. Crowd attends Hughes funeral. As the gray clouds moved lazily across the heavens, a mid-fall day prepares itself in action last Wednesday, as Mrs. James Hughes, of 4262 Cook Avenue, was borne from Lane Tabernacle C. M. E. Church, Newstead and Enright, to her last resting place in Washington Park cemetery. Hundreds of friends were present as Rev. N. L. Smith former pastor of Lane Tabernacle, administered the last earthly rites to a deserving and worthy lady, whose life had been crowded with useful deeds. She was no doubt tired, and will be glad to rest in the arms of Jesus. Flowers came from everywhere it seemed. In her late years, Mrs. Hughes had been enjoying a prosperous life, but she never forget her friends who were less fortunate. Last Wednesday afternoon, they lined past the bier with tainted checks to say a silent farewell to one that will be missed. She was treasurer of the Good Samaritan Club, leading her work with that organization has been remarkable. She gave free to every worthy cause, and the doors of her charming home were often thrown open for the benefit of Lane Tabernacle. A year ago the Good Samaritan Club celebrated its third anniversary at her home, and it was in attraction that no club has ever escaped. The Lane Tabernacle official board was among those that sent florals. The Good Samaritan Club floral was the most beautiful of all.

NEGRO WORKERS ARE BARRED FROM AFRICA EXCEPT IN LIBERA World's Student Christian Federation Adopted Resolution Condemning This Policy Fostered By The European Governments. Associated Negro Press. TUSKEGEE, Ala. Nov. 15.—A most important action was taken by the recent Conference of the World's Student Christian Federation held in Peking, China, during the month of April, 1922. There were 800 delegate at this Conference, representing 32 different countries, with the first time in the history of the Federation the American Indian and the Negro are represented on the governing Board of members of these two races. Significant action was taken in connection with the adoption of the report-dealing with Missionary Work on the continent of Africa. Those who have kept abreast of the history of Missionary endeavor in Africa will recall that even at the present time American-Negro workers are practically prohibited from working in any part of Africa except Liberia. This is due, primarily, to the attitude of the European governments controlling most of the continuation of the mission. That conclusion was called to the attention of the representatives of the Christian Students, assembled at Peking, they adopted a strong resolution, condemning this policy and urging the Christian Students organizations in the countries responsible for this policy, to bring pressure to bear on their respective governments for a change 'of the policy. CHURCH GOERS SEEK ROPE FOR A NEGRO Christian Mob Tries To Lynch Man Accused Of Kissing: White Woman Crusader Service NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—"Christian" Churchgoers returning to their home last Sunday morning in the neighborhood of Eleventh Avenue and Forty-fifth Street were about to engage in Christian America's most popular sport—laching—when a squad of policemen from the West Forty-seventh Street Station, with clubs unlimbered and revolvers drawn, drove off the blood-thirsty church crowd of "the best people" and made the Negro a prisoner. Alphonse, formerly of Memphis, Tenn., was accused of kissing a white woman in a dark hallway in the neighborhood. ...Word spread like wild fire that a Negro had made an attack on a white woman and Mayo, who was in the neighborhood, and may or may not have been this man responsible for the alleged attack, was chased up to the roof of a tenant house, and by the time he was dragged from the roof a crowd of a thousand persons had collected at the entrance of the lower hallway. The man was already in a semi-consoles condition from blindness and kicks and kicks and kicks, and he tried to "get a rope." Two policemen tried unsuccessful to rescue Mayo, and someone telephoned to the station-house—perhaps some non-church-goer and a department car with reserves hurried to the scene. When they got there, the crowd numbered over 2,000. The policemen with gun drawn fought their way through the crowd until they reached Mayo, and after warning the crowd they would shoot if interfered with, hustled their prisoner to the waiting car and station, for the battered man was made a prisoner although no charge had been registered against him that day. It is reported that one church in the neighborhood had that very morning passed a resolution calling upon the State Department to "take immediate action for the protection of minorities in Turkey". Probably the same crowd that helped to pass the resolution participated in the early Sabbath morning bank of the American suppressed minority. Almost all of these centenarians who explain their long life leave out the most essential qualification, which is to come of a long-lived family. "Disregard of one law, breeds contempt for all laws."

NEW YORK GOVERNOR WILL NOT STOP BOXING It Is New Almost Certain Wills And Dempsey Will Fight In Madison Square Or New Jersey. Next June. Associated Negro Press New York, Nov. 22-40. Elect A. Smith is not going to stop boxing in New York. He is not opposed to matches between whites and blacks. He is not interested in boxing nor will he make any effort to book matches for big purses. He said: I have no objection to Jack Dempsey battling Harry Wills or any other man of color. I am a believer in the theory that the big championship matches are all right—at least that he better. I have two well matched men most for a large pursuit than to have a bad match for half the prize.

By Robert Lee Heiser, Author of "Tales of the Waterfront" "Five Points" "The Perryville Mystery" life Fully protected: Reprinting prohibited. (Continued from last week) Last March, when Razz was eighteen years old, the wrath of the children's parents fell on her shoulders. "It is a shame and a disgrace for a big eighteen year old girl to wear a man's clothes. You cannot continue running about with our boys. You must put on dresses." This was the substance of what the people of Lakehead said. "I won't. I won't." "Her soul screamed back at them. It was one of you that made me what I am. Who is he? Bring him forth! Until then I will not wear dresses." Come a time when a blu coat covered policeman trumped Razz on the shoulder. "Look here sss- I mean Razz- Erre-er-er-Well, you'll have to put on dresses. If you don't I will run you in." Then came the worst blow of all, Hpf two little friends. Misses Josephine and Sally Kittyhouse, died. Word went forth that the red flag of the auctioneer would wave, on the porch of the old farm house that Razz had known as home. The day came for the sale. The auctioneer took his stand and asked for bids. The countryside was out. There were two things not listed on the bill of sale. Razz and her mother. Remember, kind friends, this was in the year of 1922 and the Negroes were free. Had it been later in the old days, the pair would have been old with the rest of the estate. We have gone one step nearer civilization but we still have to provide for such people as Razz. Let us bow our heads in shame. Poor Razz. She moved about among the people with a worried frown on her face. Deep down in her heart she was sobbing. Nothing at all stood in the way of the white people forcing their demands that she break her wives and don a woman's clothing. She had tried to dress that way once, and the sight that her looking-glass presented when she looked in was just about what a man would see if he tried to dress in a woman's clothes after he had worn trousers for eighteen years. We will have to agree with the ministers. God looks out for his people in the crowd attracted by the woman's arrest. Joseph of Donnery former Attorney of Howard County. A big hearted, well-diked man who still practices as much justice as he does law in Ellicott City. If he never does another good thing in his life he should be remembered for this one act. Demon learned of the girl's predicament. He owned a farm down in Marriottsville, Md., and he gave both Ida and Razza a position on that farm for life. "Razza they call her sometimes," explained a man who asked about Angela Rittenhouse. Demon had failed to recognize the name of Angelia Rittenhouse. "Razza! Oh yes, of course I know Razza," he said. "Getting along fine. She's down on my farm." "Still wear pants?" "Well, folks down there tried to induce her to wear dresses. She does try to do it in order, please others, and after a bit of practice, she certainly does look well in them, but her overall she is out in her overall. She is in a place now where no one dates interfere with her. Razza has what her heart delights in HORSES. As long as that girl is on the farm, I will not be bothered with crowds. She surely knows how to use a gun." Donnae said that Razz had changed her mind about washing dishes. He thinks it is because she wants to please others. There is no doubt that she would rather plow. Razz is still a mystery. The only people who might have thrown some light on her parentage are dead and although she was forced to break her vew, never to discard the court and trousers of man, it was not without a battle. Had she been straight bloomed, and fought half as hard, the world would have shoved her on a pedestal. But as fought she deep down in her blood that she could not win. The line was drawn too close. The mystery still remains; who is her father? And what kind of a being is she? Providing he stood quietly and washed light against old for eighteen years. SIKI AND WORLD POLITICS SIKI AND WORLD POLITICS Associated Negro Press White Americans and Englishmen who are interested in the British Empire are talking loudly about the recent severe punishment of Sikh by the French are talking loudly about the trivial to a great in the public mind with the almost simultaneous barring of Sikh from England by the British Home Office. 'There is a vast difference' between the two rulings. The British Sikh bar is because of his color—he is brown. The French took away his hair and seconded him nine months because he smashed another gentleman in the face when said gandalf was not in boxing shoes and had a ransom to expect an onslaught. The punishment is severe, in what can be done with a boy who works off his high spirits on officials and spectators. The man he saw a swat.

What is a title (easily work) and nine months suspension, in exchange for one glorious wail) all of those birds who band out advice from a safe corner? I envy Ski. Certainly colored Americans will not help the cause of the Negro in France by raising the cry of discrimination. There is no evidence of discrimination on account of nationality in the French Americans and Euphorbians try to create it, but so far have not been very successful. Nothing could help them so much as suspicion and accusations of unfairness. At once Frenchmen would, soon the suspicion, they would, begin to expect hostility, and soon the two forces be as absurdly sensitive in France as they are now in America. On the other hand if the Ski incident is forgotten, or accepted as a natural punishment for infraction of rules, colored beavers will continue to enjoy the freedom and friendliness they have so far enjoyed in France. The British know very well that race prejudice hardly exists in France. That is why they are worried. They worry about France's black troops, about France's black deputies and writers. They are afraid of colonial empire that is a federation of races queer their custom governed; their system their work was wrong; their system their system was wrong; their system their system is among people against France, and would be glad to have the world believe that the French decision against Ski was what they admit their own to be, a ruling to protect white men from public defeat at the hands of black men as a matter of financial policy. Notice how Americans applaud the British decision, says the Chicago Tribune: "Kipling stated the whole British theory: (of imperial government) in The Man Who Would Be King. That adventure succeeded as the adventurers were sum gods, it went to put when one of the sums admitted - that he was human enough to fall in trouble - beckett may not be a sun god but Ski will not find it out. British Africa and Asia will not spread the news that an African smoored the pride of the sun gods right in his own home, what it can list and how and what." And the Tribune says further: "The French do not understand the intricacies of the empire business." Mayes, they don't, but they have a long colonial history and a great colonial empire and why are the British and the Tribune worried about the French system? For the sake of France? There is a little moral in Kipling's story of the man Who Would Be King—that the Tribute seems to have overlooked. It is this! Finally, in spite of all the precautions on the part of the "sun gods," their subjects found out they were not sun gods, and there was a sudden end of the sun god rule. Can the British pose as sun gods for ever? Even without the example of France to sit up trouble British "godship" is doomed. It was doomed long ago India and India. In the long run, France and India have been safer, and such a matter as the Sikh incident, no matter how much the British misrepresent them, "will not unangage the success of that plan allow themselves to be fooled by Anglo-American misrepresentation.

Says Africa Is Continent of Great M understanding Continued From Page 7 High praise is given missionaries. "Through their devotion to the people, their efforts in behalf of education and their emphasis on morals and morale, they have made the most fundamental contribution of all," says the report. The idea of making a comprehensive study of Africa originated with the Protestant Missionary Borders of North America, which colluded the cooperation of representative British missionary societies, the Phelps-Stokes Fund and the Colonial offices of Great Britain, France and Belgium. LIBERIA A LAND-OF OPORTUN ITY AND GREAT BICKS. From An African Traveler's Notebook By Maynard H. Jackson. Associated Negro Press. It strikes the writer with peculiar force that so large a percentage of late visitors to the Republic of Liberia have got so discouraging an opinion of the resources and opportunities of the country when the facts, of the situation present such a tremendous controversy, Liberia is perhaps, and is so considered by Europeans, the broad statement to make out but the reader will realize that England has done everything in the category of diplomacy, honest and disloyest, to steal the little Republic and that this richest part of Afrien; this is a very great nation of Exploiters does not covet the poor places of the world. There are several reasons for the underestimation of the little Republic's possibilities by the central traveler: most visitors are afraid to risk the hardships of the country outside the Capital City and the River settlements and miss the regions of coal promise in the matter of commerce and production; the ordinary visitor is not in a position to judge console possibilities, ordinarily being a specialist in very different lines; too often it is the ear and not the eye which forms the channel of information in the Republic. These are very serious shortcomings and should not permit the writer or speaker to belittle and great opportunities as do certainly the writer was able to visit the Carlsberg section where the Liberian Development Company, an English company working in conjunction with the Liberian Government a four-back mined gold, built roads and railroad, and were eager to a profitable development before they were elected by the Government for alleged fraud. It is not these mineral resources which are undoubtedly present, but rather undeterminate at this time which form the present opportunity in the Republic. Such staple articles of export as coffee, piassava (tough palm fibre), palm oil and palm kernels are the immediate source of wealth. There are problems to be met, to be sure, but they are not greater than similar conditions, which have been met in countries of a like stage of development. There persons attempting development or trade must specialize in the peculiar conditions which must be met and make an intimate study of the people with whom they must deal. If there is any doubt, as to these possibilities, let the reader investigate the present trade of the Republic, remembering in his connection that almost all the export of the country except coffee is made of, natural products without any attempt to increase this production by cultivation. I have employed Pluko Hair Dressing with gratifying and satisfactory results for some time and would not be without a can of your velvous hair preparation. A few applications act almost like magic on the hair and leaves it nice, soft and an straight as can be. There are to my knowledge branches of six great trading firms now engaged in Liberian trade: two English; one each of the following: French, Spanish, Dutch and German. These firms have agents and headquarters at Morroville and other points in the Republic. If there is sufficient inducement for these exporters, it is a mystery, why the Negro visiting the Republic can see no possibility of fruitful intercourse. Ja trade.
