LOUIS NEGROES LYNCH BILL In A Letter, Accompanying The Flowers, France And The Ex-Premier Were Praised For Their Attitude Toward The Black Colonial Troops, And For The Kind Treatment Of American Negro Soldiers While Serving In The Foreign Field. A large bouquet of flowers was presented to Georges Clemencean at the Pulitzer home in St. Louis County from the Colored citizens of St. Louis, as a result of his defense of the Colored troops stationed along the Rhine. The bouquet was at the Pulitzer home when Clemencean returned from a three-hour ride in St. Louis County, beginning at 2 p. m. yesterday. The card on the bouquet reads: "To Mons. Georges Clemencean: In honor and esteem of your life of service to your own people, and for your noble sentiment fearlessly expressed in meticulous service rendered by Colored Groups. Vive in France." The note is signed by several names, representing the colored citizens of St. Louis." Accompanying the flowers was a letter: "St. Louis, Mo. Dec. 1, 1922." Hon. Georges- Clemenceau:— "We, the undersigned committee, on behalf of the Colored citizens of St. Louis and the ex-soldiers of color who served in the Army of the United States during the World War, extend to you Greetings; and we wish it were possible to convey to you and your beloved France, some adequate idea of our unbounded gratitude for the words of unyielding inspiration which you have expressed of African brothers, the Colonial French. "We have been made glad to have YOU CANNOT CONVICT A WHITE MAN ON EVDENCE OF "NIGGERS" IN FLORIDA YOU CANNOT CONVICT A WHITE MAN ON EVDENCE OF "NIGGERS" IN FLORIDA Associated Negro Press. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Dec. 6.—The white man recently charged with raping a young colored girl in the outskirts of Jacksonville, against whom the victim and several other witnesses aware directly, (witnesses all colored) was last week discharged by the judge on his own testimony. The judge announced that a "white man could not be convicted in his court on the mere evidence of "uggers." The matter of guilt was apparently clear. A Former Car Conductor Scores As Basso-cantate Associated Negro Press. TORONTO, Canada, Dec. 6-17 rvine A. Titley, bureaucrate, served a complete triumph last Wednesday evening when he was presented on behalf to a large audience in Foresters Hall by Signor L. Vegara of Vegara School of Vocal Art. Mr. Titley is not only gifted with a pure voice of considerable resonance, but he has a temperament that colors each tone, and an intelligence that controls it. He literally captivated his audience from his first selection. "The Heavens Are Telling", to his grand finale, "The Song Of The Sword." Mr. Titley's popularity as a street-car motorman brought out many of Toronto's leading citizens, Mr. H. H. Couzens, Commissioner of Transportation, and his entire staff were in attendance, as were many of Mr. Titley's crewmen. A large number of our group were present and were justly proud of the great success of one of their number. Missouri Dmocrats Have A Chance To Show Up The Republican Hypocrisy Associated Negro Press. ST. LOUIS, Mo., Dec. 0.—The failure of the last Legislature to give adequate financial assistance to Lincoln University—the $500,000 appropriation was a gold brick, no funds being available offers the Democratic Party of the State its chance to show the race what its attitude toward other education for the Negro. Democrats of this city realize the party has the opportunity to show up Republican hypocrisy and rather expect this will be done. There is little doubt such a move would reflect in higher quotations on the political stock market for the Democratic ticket in 1924 if a few such moves were made. von declare before America and the world the just commendation of these men who stood as a solid wall against the overthrow of civilization, and the millions of our own people who made the supreme sacrifice in saving not only America but the world in that desecrate struggle for existence. "We feel safe in saying to magnanimous France that in any future call to America for armed assistance of America will eagerly respond to save France and her splendid idols from destruction. "We wish, through you, to say to France that it is with much gratitude we recall her just and kindly treatment of our Colored soldiers, while in her territory, and the many recoignations of merit and bravery which they wear with honor and deep appreciation. And our gratitude to you and to France is but deeper when we remember that upon their return from France, many were humiliated and made the jigger of murderous attacks mobled and lynched, and their emblems spatched from their breasts. "Long live France! Long live her birds!" Long live Georges Clemenceau. "Gratefully submitted on behalf of the Col Americans of St. Louis and Gulf Coast." Count G. C. Vagition, Communitarian; N. A. A.

MOTON SAYS THE GOOD THINGS DONE BY RACE SHOULD BE EMPHASIZED Associated Negro Press ATLANTA Ga. Dec. 6-Negrens are just as loyal and friendly to the white people now as were their antebellum ancestors, Dr. R. K. Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, declared today, in opening a good will tour of Georgia, designed to promote better relations between the races. Speaking in the city, auditorium last Sunday right to an audience of several thousand persons, almost equally divided between white and colored Dr. Moton asserted that "the world bears much of clashes between the races in the South, but little of the hundreds of clashes of whites in the capital, persecution, blacks and whites that takes place daily in every community of the South. The time has now come when we should emphasize the thousands of good things that are happening right here in Atlanta, in Georgia, and through out the South, rather than the occasional bad things." "Negro Times," New York Daily, Starts Again. Associated Negro Press. NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Dec. 6.—The Negro Times has made another bow for public favor. It appeared in the streets last week after an absence of slightly more than twenty-five days. The management promises to keep their daily venture alive and present a most attractive program for the support of the public. The venture is being watched by everybody with consuming interest. FINDS WIFE IS COLORED AND SUES FOR DIVORCE FINDS WIFE IS COLORED AND SUES FOR DIVORCE Crusader Service NEW YORK, Dec. 6.—Alleging that his wife had forgotten to supply him with her family genealogical tree, and had therefore kept from him her knowledge that she possessed Negro blood, one John Stovall, a white insurance broker of 2261 Andrews Ave. Bronx has broken into the newspaper columns by seeking before Supreme Court Justice Faber of Brooklyn to have his marriage annulled. The Stovalls have been married and living together for a year. They were evidently fairly successful in their negotiation of the rocky road of maltreatment until old ubiquitous Mother in Law sprang the coup in the traditional fight between son's wife and son's mother and handed Cupid the count by her revelation that Mrs. Stovall was of Negro blood. Mrs. Stovall, who in only 30 years old, takes the position through her attorney, that no body had ever questioned her as to her race then she had no obligation to boast of the possession of the blood of the Pharaoh. Justice Faber directed that the case be tried next month. If the possession examination is rife of the evidence could prove that every wife and every son of the least dose of Negro blood will be found guilty. It will be Published In The Interest Of, Colored People ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1922 Scene Of Folly Staged In Senate Against Protection Of Human Life By Southerners In Ill-Gotten Seats. FILIBUSTER DISGRACE TO MODERN CIVILIZATION The big Republican majority in the United States Senate abandoned the Diver Anti-Lynching Bill, completely last Saturday. Only a small minority, in a party caucus, held out for the continuation of the fight in the face of a Democratic filibuster. The final decision was to direct Senator Lodge to inform the democratic leaders that the bill would be pushed no further, either at the regular session or at the regular session convening Monday. This means the death of the legislation which the Democrats have attacked as "a force bill" and as unconstitutional. A Scene Of Folly Associated Negro Press. WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 6.—The entire nation has again learned, and a few of us here on the ground have seen, how a wilful and stubborn minority in the United States Senate may obstruct, delay, and finally merge and destroy the power of the majority. Republicans have never had a larger majority in the Senate than they have today. Yet, it has proved practically impossible to pass two measures that have strong Administration approval. 1. Liberian Loan. 2. Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Filibustering has been practiced in the Senate for many years and yet authority, that such a sense of folly has been carried on with the frank admission of the Democratic minority leader, Senator Underwood, of Alabama, where with other Southern states Colored voters are disfranchised, but pay taxes, that the object is solely for the purpose of defeating action on the Anti-Lynching bill. The spectacle is a sorry one. Particularly in view of the purpose of the measure: The protection of human life—a Constitution guarantee. There they sit in their allogent seats of the Senate, Underwood, Harrison, of Mississippi: Heftlin of Alabama; Simmons, of North Carolina; Caraway, of Arkansas; McKeller of Tennessee, and others of their like, grimming like laughing by their serious minded staremen; like Senator Shortridge of California, endeavor to unrest—or restore—the honor of the order. "A Sorry Plight" It is a sorry plight, as much was expressed even by a Northern Democrat who has become ashamed of the demagogs of his own party. Where will it end? None can say. But Republicans are learning another lesson, to-twit: Southern Democrats will stick together until Hades freeze over. If Republicans would do the same, something would happen worth while. It was no more accident that Colored soldier of the World War, impelled by a mysterious irresistible force, arose in the Senate Chamber and courtlyly inquired: "Mr. President, may I ask a question?" Lucious Jones made a history that day, and it is a matter of eternal record, for the incident is referred to in the Congressional Record, as sent from the infamous slander of Senator Heiflin. That young man, in fact, was the momentary human interrogation point of the 12,000,000 colored people of America. He is not a crank, in the usual terms of the word; he is a slean cut, patriotic chap, who might worthily have been picked by Fate for this one particular incident. The man says today I ask a question: "Mr. President, I ask a question? The rules of the Senate, important of them through this young soldier was, are as nothing compared to the Providence that brought about the Incident. The Colored people of America are asking questions; and they are going to keep on asking them until some of them are answered, and answered rightly. Southern Democrats, scorfully sneeringly, insultingly, brush them aside and ignore them; but with the final ware of international opinion sweeping down upon them, the day is coming when they will be 'crying "Throw out our police!" It will then be a more statement of the fact that even a bishop head in the sand outshines with pride. What was Soldier's Question? Many have asked the Associated Negro Press just what the question was that this young soldier was going to ask. The subject of black soldiers in France was being discussed. PEOPLES LOAN COMPANY HAS FORMAL OPENING The Peoples Loan & Finance Company observed its formal opening last Wednesday evening from 6:00 to 9:00 P. M. when its modern, well equipped quarters at 2331 Market Street were opened for public inspection. The management will endeavor to serve the needs of that large class of small wage earners and salaried people who are in need of funds and whose moral character is good. In remodeling the building the directors have kept in mind the development of the trust business and it is their hope that the service rendered by this institution will merit its development into a large bank development into the largest bank owned and operated by Negroes in this country. The institution will be opened daily from 9:00 a. m. until 4:00 p. m. except Saturdays, when it will close at 3:00 p. m. On Monday evenings the office will be opened until 6:30. GEO. W.

Special music is being prepared. A large crowd is expected. Doors open at 3 o'clock. White Men Take Oath Against Military Service The following path, according to Gen. Pershing, "was taken by 1800 young white men in the Town Hall at New York City November 30, 1821: "Believing that all war is wrong, and that the arming, of the nations, whether by land or sea or air, is treason to the spiritual unity an intelligence of mankind, I declare it my intention to never take part in war, defensive or defensive, international or civil, whether it be by bearing arms, making or handling munitions, voluntarily subscribing to war loans or using my labor for the purpose of setting others free for war service." COLORED MAN GETS $50 FOR EXCLUSION FROM A N. YORK SWIMMING POOL NEW YORK, Dec. 7. (Special)—A colored citizen of New York, James Pilcher, who was excluded from the Madison Square Garden Swimming Pool, took the case to law, upon the advice of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with the result that the Swimming Pool settled the case out of Court and paid $50. The case was undertaken under the Civil Rights Law of New York State. Mr. Pilcher consulted his Attorney in August this year. On November 22, a check for $50 was in his Attorney's bands. The exclusion at the Madison Square Garden Pool was upon the pretext that Mr. Pilcher was not a member of "the Club" and could therefore not use the swimming pool. However, Mr. Pilcher was accompanied by a white friend who gained access to the pool upon payment of the admission fee, without being a member of "the club". Conflicting Opinions Of New Illinois Constitution Associated Negro Press CHICAGO I. Ill. Dec. 6—Clarence Darrow, one of the bitterest foes of the proposed code, recently returned from down state where he carried the opposition to the farmers. To colored audiences at 3140 Indiana Avenue last Sunday, he characterized the document as "a fool thirst." "It oppresses the poor and protects the rich more than ever," he declared "and is going some." Much of his opposition is centered on the provisions granting to judge the rights to deaf ball to persons charged with crimes. Edward Morris told the audience that the proposed new constitution gives the colored people more equal rights and a more equitable tax to bear. "It is an ark of safety for the Negro," he said. Criticism of increased lawyers the document gives the state supreme court is unjustified, he declared. Because the proposed code brings the supreme court closer to the people. NATIONAL BAPTISTS IN ANNUAL SESSION HERE J. FINLEY WILSON HERE FOR BAPT. CONVENTION I. Thomas Wilson,utor Washington, D. C. Engie and Grand Excaled Ruter of Elks is amping the visitors in the city attending the National Parish Convention. He is accompanied by Hon. John W. Lewis, banker and owner of Whitewater Hotel of Washington. They are occupying a beautiful suite of rooms at the Grand Central Hotel, and judging from the number of visitors received by them, one would think it is headquarters for the manager of the Republican nominee at a National Convention. Editor Wilson is boosting Dr. Norman of his city for the President of the National Baptist Convention and says his candidate should win. Mr. Lewis, a man of few words but a deep thinker seems to be the power behind the throne. Mr. Wilson is the President of the National Negro Press Association. He predicts the largest meeting of newspaper men at Nashville Tenn., in February, in the history of that organization. Women In Legal Suits, Equal To Men In California Associated Negro Press. LOS ANGELES, Cal. Nov. 29.—Modern women have equal rights with men regarding property and a woman who commits an offense against one other property, even though it is her husband's must answer the law. This is the decision handed down by the District Court of Appeals last Tuesday in the case of Harrier A. Canfield Graff. The state appealed from an order of Superior Judge Homer, granting a motion to quash information brought against Mrs. Gaff for embezzlement in connection with certain property of her husband's. Local colored women were greatly interested in the outcome of this case. No French Negro Soldiers In Occupied Germany Associated Negro Press. German Rhine District, Coblenz Dec. 6. Not a single French Negro soldier or laborer has been in occupied Germany since early summer. American army officers here informed "The Tribune" today. The French occupation forces, numbering 90,000, includes about 20,000 Algerians, Moroccan, and Arab. The American staff marches in these three forces as well behaved as the other troops in the Rhineland. The last of the Annamites in the French Army, mostly laborers, were sent out of Germany months ago. OBSERVES 104TH BIRTHDAY. Proston News Service TERNE HAUTE. Ind. Dec. 8.—O Thank-giving Day.

Mitchell editor of the Southern Opinion. The alliance voted to support the new publication and to co-operate in its establishment. The capitalization will be $10,000. PLAN TO CHANGE SYSTEM OF ELEVATING ALDERMEN IN THE CITY OF ST. LOUIS. ST. LOUIS, Mo. Dec. 6.—The Constitutional Convention now in session in Jefferson City is having difficulty in framing a provision for permitting this city to expand its limits, taking in certain desirable portions of St. Louis County. In clued in this city question convention has a pre-requisite before it can be approved of electing the members of the Board of Alderman by a city wide vote, to choosing Alderman by vote of their respective wards. The plan is sponsored by the Democrats who see the possibility of securing 10 of the 19 Aldermen under the arrangement and will doubtless meet the solid approval of the colored voters as under the present arrangement it is absolutely impossible their one nominee and elect him to the Board of Aldermen ever in wards where Negroes are largely in the majority, laddered, judge moves by a civilizing route sometimes but finally avail. 12 PAGES MORE THAN TWO THOUSAND DELEGATES AND VISITORS Forty-Second Annual Convention Opened Wednesday In Kings Theatre.

Morris' Valedictory address was read by his son, Lient. E. A. Morris, of Little Rock, Ark. manager of the Baptist Vanguard. This address was prepared by the lamented president for the California session, or the session to be held in Los Angeles last September, which is being held here this week. Among other things he said: "The Negro is not unimaginable of the propaganda being sent broadcast over the world to the effect that the race is immoral and degenerated in groups. This false theory has, been spread abroad to create a prejudice against the Race so that no country will want them among them. But there is not a sinitilia of truth in the charge, and while the Race is not immaculate, it seeks a chance to olive and improve itself along all lines; and while only fifty-five years from slavery, it has built up many thousands of good homes with clean families against the greatest odds that have ever come against any people. Of the ten of eleven million Negroes in the United States, fully eight million of them still live in the South, and I may say they constitute very largely the bone and shew of that section, especially as it refers to Agriculture. Under the many privations and laws of prescription and other inequalities, they have followed the advice of their leaders and have accumulated more than a billion dollars worth of Churches and schools, but unless the South is prepared to change its policy toward this group of American citizens, it is in danger of losing its entire Negro population. The North and West may not get them, but there are other countries which would be glad to have such a healthy progressive element among them. The masses among the Negroes are now looking to their leaders to bring them from under the heavy burdens which are now bearing down upon them. These leaders have an opportunity to confer with leaders in dominant races, with view to bringing on a change for the better, and if the leaders fail their people at this time, God will be deliverance from another source. There are many good and great men in the white race who are willing that the black man should have a fair chance in the race of life. But these seem to be powerless in a change for the better. No bitter has become the race feeling, that the mere charge of a crime no matter how frivolous, if the charge is against a black man, is a signal to form a mob and put the man thus charged to death." Wednesday evening, fully two thousand people crowded in King Theatre, designed by Rex D. L. K. Williams, of Chicago one of the greatest preachers of the country and pastor of the largest Church in America with a membership or 10,005 preached. The speaker portrayed the life and Character of Jeans. It was a wonderful sermon, and he just won his way into the hearts of the people. Closing Season Sunday morning, there will be a Model School School under the Sunday School Publishing Board, Dr. A. M. Townsend, Secretary. The President of the Convention will also preach Sunday morning. Sunday afternoon, a Missionary Mass Meeting will be held under the Foreign Mission Board of the National Baptist Convention, Dev. J.

Miss Billie Harris is the curtain raiser with three good song numbers and some lively dancing. Tucker and Greatham, a mixed team, are Classy entertainers. Their singing is unusually good and with original dance accompaniment make a big hit. Among their feature songs are "The World Is Round But Its Crooked Just The Same" and "You Can't Get Al- ong Without Us." Edna and Dofris, a sister team, is above the average. Peppery, conversation and good dancing are features. Miss Edna with the "Down Hearted Blues" and Dorris "Shellk." Buck Dance go over big. Their finale is the "Dancing Fools." The Porters, Buster and Willie, are upholding their tremendous popularity here. They are a scream from start to finish with comedy, dances and song numbers including "Syncopated Melody Man," "Taint Nothing," and "Don't Take Away Blues." FAVORITES NEXT WEEK A bill of favorites has been booked for the Booker Washington Theatre next week. Baby Mack will appear single, with topical songs and dances. Chinese Walker and Josephine Legget will give their famous character impersonation and dance melodies. Charles Burton and Sam Robinson will appear in their talking and musical novelty. O'Bryant and O'Bryant, featuring "The Fidell 'Fool' will round up a program hard to beat. ANTI-LYNCHING FEATURE IN GAYETY SHOW NEXT WEEK A strong play against lynching is featured in the "Wine, Woman and Song" show which comes to the Gayetey Theatre for a week starting with this Sunday matinee. This occurs during the scene "Plantation Days." There is a false charge of murder against an old Negro, to hide the real white criminal. A lynching is brewing when another white man steps up and delivers an ultimatum with humanity, equality and freedom as its theme, that carries weight. There is much singing, dancing and comedy. The company consists of forty performers and the Gayetey Theatre manager guarantees it to be the "Greatest Show in Burlesque." Dally matinees and Night Shows are given. THE PICTURE THEATRES Richard Barthelmess will be seen at the Jestafane Theatre on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday in "The Bond Boy." Barthelmess portrays a poor boy who is bound out to the service to a mean farmer. He is arrested for the murder of this farmer and as a result of his efforts to shield the honor of a woman is condemned to hang for a crime he did not commit. He effects his escape dramatically, blood-hounds pursue him, and following a powerful denouncement the story comes to happy end. Jane Novak in "Colleen of the Pines" will be featured on Wednesday. Constance Talmadge in "The Primitive Lover" will be the special for Thursday and Friday. Connie is cast as a married woman who finds the routine of married life abhorrent, and learns the true lesson of love in the fastness of the California mountains surrounded by a raging blizzard. AT THE STAR A fascinating tale of old Broadway, "At the Stage Door" will be presented at the Star Theatre this Saturday. It dwells with life in the theatre and among those who dwell in the world of make believe. On Sunday, Harry Carey will be seen in "The Kick Back." Action that skips along after the fashion of chin-lighting, drama that rises to extraordinary heights in the big moments that abound. deft comedy at which the star is a past master and a crashing climax that will thrill you to the core, are promised in the production. Next Thursday and Friday, John Barrymore will be see in "Sherlock Holmes." This production should not be confused with either two reel Holmes pictures. The Barrymore presentation is in eight reels. It is a mystery story with thrills and suspense and a high powered dramatic plot, guaranteed to keep everyone who sees it spellbound. THE COMET Gloria Swanson in "The Impossible Mrs. Bellew" will be the Comet Theatre feature this Saturday. The star appears as a devoted wife tricked into a divorce by a jealous husband and torn from her child whom she idolizes. Grief stricken, she plunges into a mad whirl of gaiety, far more sinned against than sinning, but real love unintimately brings her happiness. Tom Mix in "Do Or Dare" will be offered on Sunday. Riding his favorite and famous horse "Tony" across the desert, jumping nimbly over the many physical barriers, flying over the mountain ranges in air machines, and dismaying hostile bands of pursuing revolutionists—are merely a small part of Mix's doings. The big feature for next Thursday and Friday will be "The Storm." The picture is a Universal-Jewell starring House Peters and directed by Beging-old Baker, the producer of "The Old Nest." Its story is that of a woodman too simple hearted to be suspicious and too square to hare anyone suspicious of him. Virginia Vall, Matt Moore and Peters present what is said to be the queerest triangular situation yet born to depict.

Walhtall AND A BRILLIANT CAST GREATEST PICTURE OF TO-DAY Kick Back" John Gilbert in "The Love Gambler" will be the Casiano Theatre feature this Saturday. It is based on the theme of sacrifice. The photoplay is one of the beat in which the rising young star has yet appeared. In his latest production Gilbert ellipaces the wonderful work he did in "Monte Cristo," the moocher spectacle which enjoyed a long run on Broadway, New York. On Sunday and Monday, William Furnum will be presented in "Moonshine Valley," a vehicle that is especially strong and entertaining. It is the story of the great outdoors, with all the fascination that a clever tale of this sort carries. May McAvay in "Morals" will be the feature on Wednesday. As a young English girl who lived from infancy until she was, grown in a Turkish harem, and was then suddenly transplanted into the atmosphere of sophisticated London drawing rooms, Miss McAvygo given an impersonation of rare charm and appreciation of comedy values. THE LINCOLN The simple tale of how one man's faith cured another man's crookedness, is delightfully unfolded in Thomas Melghan's latest-Paramount picture "If You Believe It, It's So." coming to the Lincoln Theatre this Saturday. It is a noble theme, masterfully interpolated by a cast of players, among whom are Theodore Roborts, Pauline StarGk and Charles Ogle The big Fox special "A Fool There Was" will be presented on Sunday. Harry Carey will thrill the picture fans with his deluxe attraction, "The Kick Back," next Thursday. As a lone cowboy, fighting a band of land thieves who make him the victim, of a monstrous plot, Carey is kept on the jump from first to last in the defense of his property and the girl of his dreams. Republicans Desert The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was going to ask the honorable Senate whether they did not think it the part of human justice that colored women of the world should be protected from white brutes, as well as white women protected from black brutes. That ought to be a fair question, and it will some day be answered, somewhere, somehow. Do you know, among other things far above human comprehension, why this young man could not keep his seat under the circumstances? He told it afterwards, without anger, but with pitiful sadness, as he doubtless reflected upon his sacrifices on "No Man's Land", how a beautiful young sister of his, sixteen years of age, was at one time ravaged by a brutal white man. Under the sting of such memories, under the sound of law-making, with a hollow plea for justice, even the dead rise up and speak! Sumner Phillips, Garrison, Douglas, John Brown, and a whole host of others. Words Of Good Cheer With the holiday season approaching, it is well to be of good cheer. Read the signs of the times; the day of reckoning is at hand. Colored Americans have arrived at the place where, in the language of the street, they "Know their stuff." The power of unity, of wise discrimination between parties, men, and measures; of proper financial backing, nation wide publicity and concentration, are known to the people who would be oppressed without reason. The N. A. A. C. P., and the Anti-Lynching Crusader, in a recent remarkable full page demonstration of truthful publicity, costing nearly $6,000 in eight great daily newspapers, proves to the world that black Americans are awake! It was the greatest, and consequently the most effective piece of publicity ever attempted in America by the colored group. If $500,000 could be used for general publicity, reaching white people especially, as this did, That Day, would not be far off. The papers used, with a combined circulation of nearly 200,000 are: New York Times, Washington D. C. Star, Cleveland, Ohio Plain Dealer, Chicago Daily News, Atlanta Constitution, Kansas City Star, Kansas City Journal, and San Antonio, Texas Express. Freston News Service PITTSBURG, Pa., Dec. 8.—Indus-trial activity is on the upward trend in the Pittsburgh district for there is a pronounced scarcity of labor. "The demand for labor in plants in this district is almost as great as it was during the war," declared John T. Clark, Executive Secretary of the local branch of the Urban League. "Hardly a day passed by what several calls from plants in this section come to the League asking our assistance to secure steady reliable men with families who care to locate in this city and work in the plants. Employers here are especially anxious to get Southern Negro workers with families. They are eager to single men for these men usually prove to be 'foaters'—they will not work steady nor can they be depended upon." he continued. Mr. Clark said that he is in position to place hundreds of married men with families who care to come North and settle down. The Urban League will use its institutions for nursing that families of such men are properly located and settled in their homes here. "I should be glad to hear from steady, reliable married men with families who care to come here to work in Pittsburgh places. Our negotiations addressed for me by Bill Wythe Avenues, will resolve ground conditions," he said.

MISSOURI PRESS ASSOCIATION ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION ..... Foreign Advertising Representatives W. B. Zill Co., 608 South Dearborn St. Chicago, IL. The failure of the Anti-lynching Bill in the United States Senate a few days ago can't but make us seriously doubt the sincerity of those who have said they were friendly towards the bill. We have no quarrel with the Democrats for the part they played in the defeat of the bill, especially those from the Southern States, because it was to be expected that strong opposition would naturally come from that section of the country. Our complaint must be directed against the Republicans. It was they who had made the promise. It was they who had the power to pass the bill without, the aid of the Democrats; it was they in whom we had trusted. The defeat of the anti-lynching Bill looks very strongly like a "frame up." It was either a frame up or down right cowardice on the part of the Republicans. The plea that it was decided to abandon the measure because of "filibuster" on the part of the Democrats, is all buncome. It's merely an excuse (and a poor one) for failure to do one's duty. When you stop to think about it, there was something strange about the proceedings which meant the death of the bill: In order to accomplish this 'feat,' it was necessary to reverse the majority rule and allow the minority the right-of-way. Or in other words, allow a hand-full of Democrats to bluff a cow pen full of the "Good Republicans." After all, who can tell but that this is a blessing in disguise. If it does no more than setting the Negroes to thinking, who can tell what will happen when twelve millions people begin to THINK. It is beyond our fondest imagination to ever predict what a people can do who think.

Remember, St. Louis is surrounded by the United States, and a good place in which to live. By every rule of the game, as applied to justice, right and fair play, Mayor Kiel should appoint a colored man on the school board. Twenty thousand voters said such a man should be there. Who won the war? According to war ethics, the nation who loses must pay the cost. The French Premier, M. Clemenceau, says the French people are paying $45 per, while the Germans are paying only $14 per. He says the French lost 6000 villages, while Germany lost none. He says in the end, it looks like France got the worst of the deal. We are beginning to see it that way ourselves. And judging from the losses and the gains, the question will naturally arise in the minds of the public, who won the way? Oh well, its only a few of the Ku Klux stripe who protested against the use of the Kings Theatre by the National Baptist Convention. You will find that class everywhere. If the Almighty would have peace in Heaven, surely there is no place for that class, who hateth his brother. Wm. Pickers WEEKLY EDITORIAL "BLACK TROOPS" The dark invasion of Europe is still and will still be, in progress, the eternal Turk coming in from the Southeast and the African riddle from the Southwest. But what is plain is this: that the narrowness of the Hitchcock's no less than the vehemence of the Clemencans is forcing the world into two camps: a white and a dark, with one of the white races in self-defense lined up with the dark. The same papers that reported Hitchcock's special prejudices against black slimmed people also reported speeches by black French Dames declaring that the Africans of France are not looking forward to any "pan-black" at the Southwest. It is almost amusing that the other white races do not seem to understand that their national rivalries are forcing France to "love" Africans and also to seek the friendship of such other "inferior races," as Senator Hitchcock calls them, as Turks, Arabs and ultimately Japanese. Hitchcock is sure that Negroes the spies them with in "and Arabs. Turks, Moroccanists, the Sahars, those latter with x capitals, the Abbas, may grammatical explanation of the rule) are all "inferior." In fact, he boldly asserts on the floor of the senate that all but the "white" races are inferior. Meanwhile, the superior white races are so divided in their selfish sense that France is compelled to sack the bosoms of the darker peoples in order to save France from Germany, Britain, and as it is now apparent from America. The writer of this editorial does not agree with France's attitude to want the German, and does not agree with the Hitchcock attitude toward their troops of France who happen to be black. We cannot imagine that an outrage committed by 'Inferior' troops is any different from an outrage committed by the 'superior' ones, it be that the crime of the superior is in the greater cities. Neither Hitchcock nor any other person has shown any evidence that the black troops of France have ever done any peculiar behavior to any existing crime of any sort. Even the most painful man of Germany himself has been inspired that the blacks are not any other people. the people of this city, extends a National Baptist Convention to will be a continuous round of pleas- Make your stay here as long and things which we offer you, inack to St. Louis and here make surrounded by the United States, we. has applied to justice, right and point a colored man on the school did such a man should be there. going to war ethics, the nation who French Premier, M.

If the Alceaven, surely there is no place other. But what is plain is this: that the narrowness of the Hitchcock misses their the vibemence of the Clemensna is forcing the world into two camps: a white and a dark, with one of the white races, in self-defense lined up with the dark. The same papers that reported Hitchcock's special prejudices against dark races also reported speeches in black newspapers declaring that the African race are not looking forward to any attack at all, and that France, which accepts them on terms of equality, can enough for them. Anxiety with the eye can see plainly what is happening. France can depend on these blacks more securely than she can depend on the white nations of her acquaintance, and she knew it. And meanwhile two dark welges are being driven into the flanks of Europe from the Southeast and from the Southeast. Something is going to happen it will be England, Germany, Austria, against France, French Africa, Turkey, Japan, and other "inferiors." O. yes; they can be "on time" with mob-prevention methods in Texas when they want to. A white man numbered one white girl and raped another. And also no body had yet been arrested for it, and they did not pawn, who could be arrested, or who did the theft they got ready in Waco to prevent any possibleunching. The Governor sent Texas Rangers and a military guard was put about the courthouse and jail in inexperienced white man who had not yet been arrested. When a Texas Negro is accused of a crime of the kind, they may be conducting a manhunt for a week first the swamp, and yet when the Negro in caughl may be... lynched and burned. After twenty-two hours of population in guardsmen, and plus hours for the Negro, they believe that the Negro is about to be lynched. WICO AWAKES and keepens, the governor will rush troops to the scene—to keep the other Negroes down. This quick action by Texas when a white man's lynching is even remotely anticipated, proves what we have asserted and will assert: that the officers of law can prevent minestrates of all the lynchings that are happening, if they wanted to. Tulsa killings and burnings could have been prevented. The governor of Oklahoma was not "advised" until the local whites were threw—having driven vehicles out into the Negro settles, burned all but the Negro settles, clothing furniture, and many white Tulsa women, were already wearing the silk dresses and the jewelry of the murdered or extaled Negro women before the governor was "advised." Congress will some day pass an anti-lynching law, even if it does not happen until the mobs are lynching more white men, Mexicans, Italians, and others who may momentarily incur mob-displause. Some States are getting very nervous about the Ku Klux Klan now, all who paid so many years ago when the A. A. C. H. B. danger, because then they could not anticipate that within two years more white men than black would be victims of tarring, whipping and bullying by the Klan. We are always saying that there can be for white and colored Americans no different destinies, political, social, physical intellectual or moral. When we arrive wherever we arrive, we will all arrive. THE 'FRONT SEAT' WEAKNESS "The persons who love a "front seat" has a great and dangerous weakness. If he loves above all else to be "well-spoken of by late influential people," if she loves to have the preacher say, on every appropriate, and some inappropriate, occasions in Church that "Sister So-and-So is one of the most esteemed women of this Church and community," etc. People who love to be "met automatically" when they the assembly of men—who receive the obedience of the people, terrible and the welcoming smile of the powerful—who like to see their names on the respected list of "those who were present"—and of those among the prominent persons who attended," such a supreme ambition is the greatest force to many courage and to the trust devotion to principle, such a person can never be a great leader, although he may be a most useful tool to power, rightness or unrighteous, or he may be a "prosperous and solid citizen." It may seem at first like a contradiction to say that there is always a great risk involved in minking any front seat! maintain the head of any kind of organization for progress. Only those people who do not give a rotten fit for empty "imagining", but who accept a front seat or any other honor as a matter of course when it is due, and would not sacrifice the smallest principle of the matter for the biggest empty honor, only such people can be depended on to fight when fighting is needed. If a man regards a "front seat" recognition as the chief boon of life he will pretty soon be sacrificing everything else to the attainment of that. And what we often blame as an arrest treacher in men is "very often devoid of any meanness of malice or all-intention at all, and is simply the pursuit of the inferior ideal. the subtile and almost subconscious desire for self-aggrandizement. One who is enmeshed in "front seat" aims, can even persuade himself to believe that he is most virtuous in all he does and that all those who may oppose him are foolies, or anti-social radicals. To be "well-spoken of", it is desirable above some things, but it is put above all things else, it becomes a gallstone about our necks. We will find ourselves defending a crime on the argument of expediency. That man is more desirable who arises nothing at all for the trappings of honor, and who is wise enough to know that empty recognitions and the "front seat" of show is not always identified with the real seat of power Old Clementean. What a praiseworthy creature he was in 1917 and 1918. When he visited England during the war, they yelled their voices dumb for the "Tiger" of France. If he had visited the United States he will call of 1917, he would have been halled by the United States Senate as the greatest and most necessary man in the whole world and all of his old antiquated brute force philosophy would have been praised by the most infidle uncertainties on the part of our press. But now the "Tiger" comes, and he is just the same tiger, too, but we are sure now that we do not need him as much as we thought we needed him five years ago. Verity there is no such thing as a fixed ideal either in morals, politics or theology. Petitions "Property owners submit a petition to King's Theatre manager to not allow Baptist Convention there." The QFallon Park Protective Associationvey a lesson if its purpose was what it appeared on the surface. There is another side to segregation petitions which it seems, our people have not seen. Every time a group of white people submit a segregation request and that request is published in the daily papers one more nail has been driven into our cross. No intelligent property owner, white or black, ever imagines that petitions unsupported by cash will amount to whirling. Leaders of the O'Fallon mess as well as leaders of the King's would not keep Colored people out but those leaders did know that every newspaper at St. Louis would publish the case and that national and international public opinion would fasten onto the fact that certain white people had the temerity and the inclination to say Negroes are not fit for human consideration. Voting When Colored Americans learn that their vote, on any occasion, is their most valuable and powerful weapon prejudiced groups of white people will cease their activities. Real leaders of thought amongst white people have no respect for any group which has the opportunity for self protection and falls to make use of its chances. A white leader who knows that there are more than 100,000 Negro votes in Missouri is not going to bother about showing Negroes political charity—that leader knows that the Negroes do not need charity, political nor any other kind. They are instead voting from the carpet baggers and southern politicians and graduated in our churches and fraternities. The first Negro voter realized that their votes did not mean much more than maybe a couple of dollars, or a few drinks of political hooch. We are a long way from the uneducated, thoughtless, indifferent newly enamored slave. We are generally a high type of well educated property owning, straight thinking American Citizens, regardless of the southern attitude and thought. By practiced thoughtful voting in practice and politicism we will soon graduate into thoughtful voters as American, Illinois 1911, citizens attending the United States and us. Then real progress will begin. Dr. W. P. Curtis Chairman of the Executive Committee, St. Louis Branch N. A. A. C. P., stated at the election of officers' meeting that "self segregation business, enterprises are probably profitable to us of this generation at this time, but probably costly to us of the future generations." It is human nature to take care of to now and conditions of right now demand that Negroes build up for themselves the strongest position of financial maneuver of ad-hoc account is possible in modern life unless the advancement program is built on a foundation of solid cash. The great human struggle is not for ideals but for money and men are measured by their bank accounts and their ability to handle collateral. An intelligently voting Negro group in the United States, controlling large, concentrated financial resources, possessing our natural enormous capacity for hard work, led by Negro appointed Negroes, would mean a lot more than a group which points with pride to its loyalty and bravery in war and its right to reoccupy the land of Christiah and human right. The world is not recognizing any rights at this time unless rights are backed by something more tangible than ideals. News There are more than three hundred Negro publications in the United States with a total circulation of near one million. How much real interest these publications have is our biggest question. Whether published in *Mississippi* or New York City, every Negro publication that has any decent circulation is working for the same thing. If the work does or does not count is a matter, for the readers to settle and people must be interested in any matter to settle it right. White publications are of direct interest to everyone. Negro publications are of only incidental interest to every race excepting Negroes. If Negro newspapers and other publications are not Negroes, they are performing their duties with the greatest probability of reaching their objective successfully it is the Personal Duty of Every Reader of the Race to Write and Tell the Editor. As this column has often said, newspaper applause does not consult the reader with the paper. The Negro's duty to his paper is inequally greater, and it is a personal, immediate duty. worth the best and most intelligent efforts of men is invaluable. How long will it be until our race learns that it is only through co-ordinated, co-operative, aggressive, consistent and persistent Demand for political civil and financial assistance will be worth it? Is our duty to surrender and our greatest of all nations to Merit recognition for and with ourselves before expecting recognition for and of our full citizenship. Kiddies Korner By. Ophelia B.

Maple tree invited the Song Sparrows to chant, the farewell melody, while Oak tree gave them little cups to use should they be thrilled as they stopped to rest down by the Wood Brook. Every little leaf with music in its heart kept time to the soft chattering as they danced into Slumberland. Presently Baby Leaf was so quiet that her mother thought she was wakeful but she was not. She had been crying and was soiled in the face that her mother thought she was the prettiest of all. "Well my dear, are you sleepy?" Said the mother, "No." Said Baby Leaf. I was just waiting for you to tell me the story of Slumberland." "Thee," said the mother, "You must be right still while I tell you. Slumberland is a beautiful and. There are silver fountain filled with fairy goldfish and dainty arbors filled with dainty perfume from flowers that never die and singing birds that chant sweet music just especially for Slumberland. No one will ever cry nor fret and no one will want to come back after once going there. How I wish I could go there my self. All the Lilybella ring at evening to tell the little leaves it is time to rest from their phyl." "And go to bed mother?" Said Baby Leaf. "No" said the Mother Tree." There is no night there." "Their I want to go too." said Baby Leaf. "For I see it is going to be very longsome here all winter with no one to play with." "But wait" said Mother Tree. "You promised to be real quiet until I finished. There are beautiful trees like your mother that never let their baby Leaves go away." "Why?" said Baby Leaf. "Because they are in Slumberland already, and you see they do not have to go away." Did Baby Leaf want to go to Slumberland? Chapter IV. "Now my dear you want to go to sleep. It is getting hard. There are many other things I could tell you of Slumberland but it would take all night. For Slumberland is a wonderful land and no one has been able to tell all that they have seen there. They would grow old and die still their story would not be ended." "I want to go to that beautiful country mother. When may I go? I want to go right now." "You may go in the morning then," said the mother, "I am glad you have decided to go yourself. I am sure you will like it there. But I did not want you to go until you were ready. I will tell Naughty Wind to bring his Wind Charlot for you. Now we must go to sleep." Mother Tree grew still after this and so did Baby Leaf, but she did not sleep soundly, she was so anxious for someone to come so she could go to Slumberland. Early the next morning she was the first to stir. Mother Tree was still sound asleep but it was no use for her to try to sleep now that Baby Leaf was awake. So tosing her head this way and that way she rehemared that this was the morning for Baby Leaf to leave, she grew very sad but she knew it was the best for her baby. Baby Leaf was the happiest of all the leaves. She sang the soft songs of the far off spring, of the happy Summer well spent and of the Winter days yet to come and many others that she knew; while Mother Tree made ready for departure. A little sparrow who was looking for his little sister saw. Rahy Leaf after she was dressed, he said, "Baby Leaf you are beautiful in your red and gold dream. Where are you going this bright morning?" YOUR OPPORTUNITY New County Suburban Store Park, Wetzel Grove, Mo. ONLY FIVE DAYS LEFT Lot No. 1, No. 2, No. 3—4300, $25 Down, $3 per Year.

Matron-Supt. Mrs. M. D. Stern, who is a Royal Nurse, and her many charges, (who at present number 20) are an interesting group. Mrs. Stern is a veritable find, and her charges are typical specimens of happy Nova Scotians. The History of this institution is interesting. In the Spring of 1912 the late Mrs. Moses B. Parryur conceived its need and enlisting the services of a few other race men approached the Government of the Province on the subject. A small cottage was procured and utilized until December 1917, when it was completely wrecked by the Great Explosion, on the 14th of November, and friends were made for the cause, and in February 1919, a mixed committee, of white and colored, again appealed to the Province. The Government granted $15,000 and authorized a campaign, which, under the direction of Mr. J. A. Klunney, netted the sum of $50,000. The present property was purchased and the Home erected. June 6, 1921 was Jubilee Day and in the presence of the Premier and Cabinet of Nova Scotia, Lieut. Gov. Grant in the name of H. M. The King, dedicated the Home to the glory of God. He declared that "This is one of the greatest events in the history of all peoples of Nova Scotia." The trustees of the Home, of which Mr. H. G. Bauld, in chairman, have inaugurated a campaign for funds to enlarge the scope by erecting a Dormitory, Manual Training Quarters and a collar for crops.

Dec. 8—That the press and the pulpit are the two most influential galvanizers, the race into the pursuit of better things was the thought expressed by a speaker at the recent National Conference on Church Publicity. The newspapers offer the Church a wonderful opportunity to extend its influence and to attract the public through judicious use of news and advertising column. An interesting experiment is being worked in Montreal, where there is no colored newspaper, by Robert P. Filtarda, the correspondent. He publishes on a minicagraph a one-page newspaper, and on a terrestrial and biweekly, and has won an annual place in the Church activities.

THE PEOPLE'S PAPER PART TWO KLAN MENACE OVER ENT Bigotry And Race Prejudice Power In Several States Launched In The Nor- tional Control NEW YORK, Dec. 6. Crusader (Service)—Spreading like an funeral pall throughout the country and liberalism in its last strongholds, the Ku Klux Klan is today a greater menace to the American Negro than at any other time in its existence. Not even the old Ku Klux Klan was so great a menace. The only ray of light that can be seen in the appalling situation in the Klan's opposition to foreign-born Jews. Organized Labor and the powerful organized Catholics as well as to the Negro. But bigotry and race and religious prejudices are making a powerful appeal to the average native white American, who is probably the prize bigot of the world. Getting Church Support Getting Church Support That the Klan is banking great in roads into the so-called Christian Church of America has long been evident. The following comments justify will give an idea of the progress recently made along the path by the Klan. Ku Klux Klan operating doctors have been given out in Cavity Baptist Church, at No. 123 W. 57th Street, New York. The Rev Oscar Haywood, general evangelist of Calvary Baptist Church has admitted he is a national lecturer for the Klan and is propagating it. Klan circulations have been distributed to women in church members of several states in the invisible Empire's drive for new subjects. The Rev William Burd of St. Mark Methodist Church in Princess Bay, S. I., has admitted to preaching Ku Klux Klan in Bible classes. Churches in various states have been visited by Klanism. money placed in the collection plates and the pastor cummended in the name of the Klan. In most instances, the donation of money has been followed by ministerial compensation from the pulp. This has happened in the ease of several Negro ministers, as well. The Klan claims its organisation is spreading among the membership of Protestant churches and will be approved by the churches in the near future, and the indications so far are that the Klan claim is not anxiously a wild exaggeration. Already in the states the Klan has achieved its immediate objective of state control. In the recent elections the Klan ticket swept everything before it in Oregon and Texas. In most of the other states and in the Federal service, other Klan members are holding more or less important positions. They honeycomb the judicial and public systems of the country, and are always a stronger strategic position than was the Italian Fascist when, by a quick strike, it achieved the conquest of political power and forthwith launched a murderous campaign of repression and slaughter against its opponents. In Chicago it has been found that several prominent members of the city's official staff are on the Klan roster. Alderman Robert J. Mulcahy of that city has been a campaign to "have the name of every city employee who is a member of the Klan stricken from the payroll." Alderman William J. Lynch promises to aid Mulcahy. "Every member of the Khan has taken an cath, which, under certain circumstances, sets his hand against the Government and the Laws of the United State." French said in advocating Mulcahy's plan. Publication of the names of all alleged members of the Khan in a Chicago magazine has led Lynch and other Aldermen who have checked the list to believe that there are many members of the Khan in the fire and Police Department and on the Bench. One supporter Food Inspector and one assistant Fire Marshal are members of the organisation, heads of the Fire and Health Departments have been informed. "Courses, not all the members' names have been published, because of the extreme difficulty in penetrating the Khan mask of secrecy. In New York City, the Rear of Alderman, led by George W. Harles, Negro allyman from Harlem, has pledged support to Mayor Hylan and the police in ridding the city of the "outlaw organization." So far, no blame has been done, however No successful has been the Ku Klux Klan in its exploitation of American society and race pandas that several organizations of the organization have among us throughout the country. One of these, the Royal Biders of the Red Nose, is said to be spreading over the past month as rapidly as any Ku Klux Klan. This organization is born from membership New Yorkers and Catholics but built largely by members of the Protestant Church. It is also working through the churches and the ministers in imitation of Klan parley. Dr. Martin W. Reese of the newly organized red nose deacons it has nothing to do with the Ku Klux Klan although doubtless have members of the Klan one organization. An long as they Protestant and white, and American. sudden changes from poverty to wealth of Negroes in the oil district near Camden, Ark. caused many Negroes to suddenly assume an ostentatious attitude and in many cases a 'very polaterous' manner. The sudden acquisition of wealth among the Negroes apparently angered the less prosperous whites of the surrounding territory along with the show of arrogance on the part of many of the Negroes gave members of the Ku Klux Klan an excuse to make an effort to drive the Negroes from the vicinity. It is claimed that the immediate cause of the onslaught on the Negroes by the klan was the use of cotton Persons, an oil driller last Sunday by a Negro. On Monday night a band of more than 250 klansmen armed themselves and marched through the Negro sections of the oil fields and warned the Negroes to leave. Many of the Negroes needed the warnings and left before the next morning. It is said that no violence occurred. PRESIDENT HARDING OPPOSES KU KLUX KLAN. WASHINGTON, D. C. Dec. 6.—In a letter to Mrs. Frank L. Applegate, of Medford, Oregon, President Harding makes clear his attitude on the klan. The letter follows: "You may be sure that any statement of the President's interest in or approval of the Ku Klux Klan is a complete and egressive misrepresentation of the President's attitude in some quarters it has even been represented that the President is a member of this organization. Not only is the fact that the President heartily disapproves of the organization and has repeatedly expressed himself to this effect." ARKANSAS TO BAR KLANSMAN FROM JURY DUTY. Preston News Service BRINKLEY, Ark. Dec. S.—Pettitions are being circulated throughout Monroe County asking Judge Clark to bar from jury service members of the Ku Klux Klan in the Monroe County Circuit Court, which convened at Clarendon last Monday. It was reported that several thousand persons in the county had signed the petition. This is said to be the first open opposition in this country against the Ku Klux Klan. "U. S. NEGROES' RIGHTS SCRAPS OF PAPER" Preston News Service MOSCOW, Russia. Dec. 4.—Among the many questions being discussed at the Third Internationale held here is the Negro question. It came before an open session and attracted considerable attention and wide discussion. President Kolanoff proposed that detailed reports of the Negro question everywhere and especially in the United States be submitted before the Conference in an open session for the purpose of clarifying the subject for European members who are unfamiliar with the problems in other countries. However, it was suggested that the Communist parties support the Negro movement everywhere in connection with a proposal to call a congress at Moscow of all the revolutionary Negro organizations of the world, "to realize a united front of all workers against capitalism and imperialism." The speaker then said that the political rights of Negress in the United States were more scraps of paper and that for a long time capitalist have been spreading propaganda against them and against white workers. Until now he said, the workers had done nothing to counteract this act. Claude McKay, the versatile writer of New York City, who, it is understood is not a delegate, also addressed the internationalate, Mr. McKay ascertained that the Negroes of America were denied the rights of free assembly and were often lynched, one purpose of the capitalists being to turn the mind of the worker class from class war by inciting him to race war ST. LOUIS, MO., FRIDAY, DEC. 8, 1922 HYLAN CALLS ON POLICE TO DRIVE OUT KU KLUX New York, Nov.—Following the opening of Ku Klux Klan headquarters in this city by the Rev. Mr. Oscar Hearwood—of Calvary Church Mayor Hylan, Democrat, issued instructions to his Commissinger of Police, Richard Enlight, to drive the Klan out of New York City. Mayor Hylan's letter to his Commissioner of Police follows; "The Ku Klux Klan, or any secret organization of similar character and purpose, is a menace to our city state and nation. The people' of the city of New York will not tolerate their existence within the confines of our metropolis. Do not leave a stone unturned to ferret out these despicable, illogical persons who are attempting to organize a society, the aliens and purposes of which are of such a character that were they to provil, the foundation of our country would be destroyed. "I noticed in yesterday's Morning World that Rev. Be- John Rouch Straton and Rev. Oscar Haywood, D. D. of, Calvary Baptist Church, are alleged to be connected in some way, with this secret organization. If this is so, a little police attention along this line would not be out of order. "Go after the Ku Klux Klan and do not let them get a foothold in New York City. It is to be respected that the men of cloth, regardless of their denomination would have anything to do with an organization whose purpose is as vile as that of the Ku Klux Klan. Those people can be dealt with under the conspiracy provision of the penal law of the State of New York. JOHN F. HYLAN." CHURCH AND KU KLUX GOING HAND IN HAND New York: Nov. 20.—The Ku Klux Klan is conducting an intensive membership drive in this city and so far has enlisted the services of several ministers, among them the Rev. William Burd, Methodist minister at St Mark's Church in Princess Bay S. I. This minister of white Christianity and traitor to Christ admitted to reporters in the Statue Island cellar that he had preached Khann in Bible classes. In his talk to the Bible classes the Christian minister — pronounced the Klan a patriotic organization initiated with noble principles, and stated that one of its cardinal principles was the unswerving conviction that the white race should be forever supreme in America. This portion of the Klan Kreed, he explained, was to meet conditions in some parts of it. South where the colored race is in the majority. Concurring with the teachings of the Klan he declared this to be the white man's land, and for the best interest of civilization (sophilization) and society white supremacy should prevail. At another church in New York Klan circulars were distributed for lowing collection at the morning service. At this church, however, the minister denied knowledge of the Klan circulars and was apparently angry over the Klan's religious Church, of which the Rev. John Roach Stratton a vaudeville reactionary is pastor dodgers were given out with the church簙lings. These doves' invited invitations to become Klan members, with the advice to write at once N. C. T. B. Box No. 797. Tenacity, New Jersey. (No Postals.) Those who wrote received a reply that read: "An invitation is extended to you herewith to attend an open meeting where full particulars and an opportunity to join will be given. at Mead's No. 1912 Madison Avenue on Nov. 17 at 8 p. m. sharp. Bring an eligible friend with you. Present this slay at the door and inquire for Brown." JEWS OPEN WAR ON THE KU KLUX KLAN Crusader Service. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 29.—Open warfare on the Ku Klux Klan by the Independent Order of Birth Abraham, with a membership of 290,000 throughout the United States, was declared last night by Judge Aaron J. Lery, Grand Master of the organization, and presiding Justice of the Municipal Court of the City of New York, Judge Lery said he hoped to enlist other Jewish fraternal organizations in a fight on the Ku Klux and eventually he suggested that Jewish and all other fraternal bodies opposed to the Klan should be merged into one big organization to wage relentless warfare on the Klan. His decision to ask the Independent Order of Brit Abraham to help in making an end of the Klan was reached after reading newspaper accounts of how school children were being used to propagate the vicious doctrines of the Klan and distributing Ku Klux literature throughout the city. Circulated distributed through media these school children contained an appeal designed to engender hatred of the foreign-born and the Negro. To be young and poor is a merchant and an angst. To be old and dependant in a calamity. In order to make part of a conspiracy and independant for short time, make the most part of life take care of the family. It is worth. The Political Pot in New York Special to the Argus. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 28. Whether the women read the signs at the cross roads right or whether contents within the Republican fold produced the greatest defection in the recent election there is much speculation. Among the colored- voters the spearhead of Lilly-whiteflesh—a denial of patronage, nationally and locally—pusy-footing the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill—the high tariff Bills—the soldiers' bonus—direct primaries—social equality issue raised by Senator William M. Calder, Congressman Annsorge's "Holly Fumble" fails to appoint an alternate, unfair redistricting and a general dissatisfaction over white district leaders naming colored men to lead in Harlem are partly responsible for the Democratic landslide in that end of the City November 7th. The failure of state and national efforts on part of the Republican Organization to "tear up Jack" as was expected, in the recent election, spell some very definite things politically; chief among which are (first) That progressive Republicanism must have substantial consideration in the patronage, the power and prestige of party affairs. (second) That leadership must be based upon the votes of the electorate; and that all fencing, convoking and blasphe, which make flesh of none and fish of others must be cast inside to insure a healthy, vigorous successful party action. Clique domination is a dead cook in the pit. (Third) That a redistributing of the political subdivisions in the County of New York should be made at the very earliest possible moment in a way that will guarantee the 200,000 Colored population of Harlem opportunity to light out its political differences without interference from outside influences. The present situation, continued, will only add one Democratic victor to another, year after year. (Fourth) That trickery, coming and whispering on the Colored people by those who stand only for self and personal plumber must be relegated to the rear; and ideas, vision and conservatism concern for the public weal must be brought to the fore-front. (Fifth) Leadership being based upon the political subdivisions, called assorty districts, all interpliers and self-styled race leaders should be required to work and make good in his particular political subdivision; and not be permitted to room and dabble (his "believe") leadership in districts in which he does not reside. This is true among any other electorate except the colored politicians. Politics Is Business The sooner political organizations realize that the Colored voters are now studying the business end of the game the quicker party results may be expected in the County of New York. Before the primaries the Republican Party "fused," supporting many Democratic candidates—after the election the daily papers of New York City announced a golf match between Gov. Nathan L. Miller and Gov. Elick. Alfred E. Smith to be held this week. This public act on the part of the two gubernatorial candidates is not without political significance; and will go equally as far as President Harding's advice to Colored men "that they should divide their vote." Progressive Republicans. Independents and Militants who have waged constructive campaigns of education each year since 1913, must be consulted to the end that a program of mutual understanding, mutual interest and mutual gain be initiated for the rejuvenating and salvation of the Republican Party in Harlem. Jobs, capitals and recognition must be given not one-sidedly, but to the various dissatisfied elements in the Party before harmony prevails. District Leaders The defeat of Senator M. Calder, the reversal of 20,000 votes cast or congressman Martin C. Ansorge in 1920, the failure of a single Republican to be elected in the local districts of Harlem where the colored Republican vote plays a large part, is but the failure of the Republican Organization which has not as yet learned to accommodate the colored voters of Harlem to numerical strength and political importance. Funds among Colored voters are sparsely spent; patronage given them is insufficient; some colored newspaper editors are browned and so helped about until they speak their convictions, but are constrained and forced to paint and color situations as being rossate, when in fact, all Rome is on fire. A. Congressional District Court" is much over crowded; and no section in the City or State is in such dire need of an additional municipal court as conditions prove the need of another one in Harland. The incoming legislature should include, among its quirky bills the apportionment of a new municipal court district. Bothe Parties Have Elected Now that colored men have found places and have been elected by both parties to seats in the legislature of the State, the non-partisan efforts of such organizations as the United Civic League and Equity Congress, as well as the support of the independents, militants and progressive Republicans, surely no one will ever rise again to say the "time hasn't come" or colored men to be elected to office.

In which we thank our many friends for their liberal donations Name of donors: Every Thing Moves Slow But Prejudice At Washington, D.C. Associated Negro Press Associated Negro Press Washington, D. C., Nov. 20—Washington is different with Congress in session. Washington is different to begin with. It is different from big industrial and commercial office where there is a bustle; hurry and scarcity. Here everything moves prejudice. That is about the swiftest moving thing in and those who compare things now—even under Republic control with what they were twenty-two years ago, under a McKinley administration, or twenty-two years ago under a democratic Cleveland administration, in office and out, will be forced to admit that prejudice here has had a fine run for its money. Race prejudice in Washington, the nation's capital, where the very acme of government idealism would be supposed to be reached, is a fine field for cynics to say the least. The appeals to justice, equality and fair play are a travesty upon the dreams of the founders of the nation. "We all a huge joke in Washington. 'Desi Suce as the punishing offspring of water buffalo.' Prejudice is so rampant here, and indifference to it by the authorities so glaring, that one is made to shudder what the answer will be in another score of years, if the old cursed things keep on. Take Treasury Department. . . There is the Treasury department, for example. There has been discovered an unwritten law in this department to the effect that all Colored women must be 'accepted only in the registers Division and thus must be segregated. President would require Colored Register of Treasury, and if President Harding expects to succeed himself in 1924, he could make a good political play here. oves Slow But Washington, D.C. However, it has been discovered that there is a young woman from Boston in one of the divisions, whom the scrutinizing chiefs had failed to "case." Her work is efficient, and she has been promoted to a position paying $1,850 a year. Presto, someone found that this capable young lady is living with "Colored people" hence, she has been called in and informed that it would be wise to be transferred to Boston at $1,450. The young lady cannot see the point, and refuses to go. Congressman Tolkien of Massachusetts, who says he is going to compel the southerner to permit, all citizens to vote, is backing the young lady in her refusal. The matter has been taken up directly with Secretary Mellon. Another Case in Point. Down in Virginia, a colored clerk waspromoted to be clerk in charts in the railway mail service. He happens to be well qualified, and a brother-in-law of a prominent public official in Chicago. When it was discovered that this man is running in charge, the two Senators from Virginia, several Congressmen, "prominent" citizens and business men, entered a strong protest to Second Assistant Postmaster General Paul Henderson, son-in-law of Congressman M. B. Madden of Chicago. They said, "This is a white line." that while in the South, Colored clerks in charge on some lines, formed P. M. G. Burleson, made a denial. It happens that General Henderson is made of the old fashioned city of justice, and so far as he is concerned, is determined to wipe out the follies of the color line. Henderson has told the clerk to stay on the run, and his opinion of prejudice of this kind would change the temperature. 0 Myra Young ..... 1.75 0 Bell Robinson ..... 3.37 0 Beatrice Saunders ..... 21 0 Mattle Williams ..... 1.15 0 Andrew Johnson ..... 1.66 0 Willard Fergerson ..... 05 0 Mattle Blair ..... 1.66 2635 Market St. St. Louis R.

LOUIS WHEN BLACK MEETS WHITE For The AssociatedNegro Press Chapter XIV 34th Installment THE INDIVIDUAL NEGRO Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes wrote interestingly about the "Three Johns" an eminent minister gave a great servant on "The Four Men," all in one the man the world sees, the man as self by those who know him best, the man as seen by himself, and the man God see. Like the "Three-in-one," all there are three or four recognized personalities in every one of us. While each of these "four men" may be widely different, the last two mentioned, the man as seen by himself and the man God sees, constitute his real personality, his true individual being. What a man thinks of himself and what he does with himself must measure his career and fix his destiny. The Bible sets forth profound truth in the statement that "No man liveth to himself and no man dieth to himself," but this is not the **whole truth**, about individual existence. In anno 1876, a person is born into this world, plays his brief part in life's drama and passes out of the world absolutely alone. Tennyson's poem, "Crossing The Bar," one of the finest pieces of verse ever penned by man, is wrong in the theory. It makes "death" the beginning of the lonely, mystical voyage of the soul, when sin truth it is at birth we are launched upon the uncharted seas of existence. But fortunately, the man as he sees himself and the man God sees, is inwardly endowed with a spiritual, mental magnet pointing ever toward the fixed star of truth high in the instrument. Forward which he unerhits the barque no power can prevent his altitude and蓄 in the port of eternal power. To teach him quires the tenement individuality. No one makes this voyage as a "passenger." Each one must steer his own course. Therefore, in considering any of the problems of life such as the "race question," we fail to reach the core of the matter if we do not take individuality into account. Social uplift, education of the masses, elevation of general standards, etc. are good and necessary, but we must not forget that the masses are made up of individuals and that social units may be improved only by improvement of the individual. Then, readers, whether you be white or colored, as we approach the end of these pages the writer cherishes the hope that some of the truths set forth and some of the ideals advocated here may find lodgment in open minds and be as seeds sown upon good ground" in the soil of honest hearts; but he feels that this is possible only through individual appeal and response The "race question" will cease to be a problem only when individuals by the peculiarity of whose skin pigment a happen to be white or colored, think not of themselves as Caucasians, Monogulans, or Negroes; but as individuals considering themselves as units of the human family, made in the "image and likeness of God". Herein lies the dignity of humanity, separate and apart from all racial destinations. Any lesser conception of being is the result of an ignorant selfishness unworthy of a creature whose orgin and destiny the material body and whose existence in the material body is comparatively so brief that the color of his human skin is as inconsequential as the color of the paint on the house of his earthly abode.

A wounded Negro ex-soldier shocked the South by attempting to ask a Senator a question from the Senate gallery. Negroes are always doing something that shocks the South. There is some satisfaction in knowing that the white man was at one time the derogor in the world. If we have patience and faith in ourselves maybe will come into our own again. We are part of the circle, they say. Parker of New Jersey, and Layton of Delaware will remember the Dyer Bill as long as they fire. You bet.

Canadian Lady Masons Have Fifth Anniversary Associated Negro Press TORONTO, Canada, Nov. 23.—Alhambra Hall was the scene of one of the most brilliant events of the season last Thursday evening. The occasion was the Fifth Anniversary and Reception of Bethlehem Chapter O. E. S. (popularly known as the Lady Masons). The evening was divided into three periods, each blending into a delightful finale. In the opening hour, the officers and members of the lodge were the recipients of many happy returns, refreshments were served and the "get acquainted" spirit was prevalent: At nine o'clock an interesting program was broadcast by Missanne Duncan, vocalist; and Mr. George Bennett, violinist; immediately following, the guests tripped the light-fastastic to the dreamy strains of Prof. Matthew's harmony orchestra. The hall was tastefully decorated; and with the lightening effects and the gorgeous constuples of the guests, one seemed to be in the Orient. The Committee in charge was Mesdames S. O. Hastings, S. S. Jackson, C. Deas, C. Hodge and M. Barker. CURED HIS RUPTURE I was badly ruptured while lifting a trunk several years ago. Doctors may only hope of cure was an operation. Trump did me no good. Finally I got hold of something that quickly and completely cured me. Years have passed and the rupture has never returned, although I am doing hard work as a carpenter. There was no operation, no lost time, no trouble. I have nothing to sell, but will give full information about how you may find a complete cure without operation. If you write to me, Hughes M. Pullen, Carpenter, 1951 Marvallus Avenue, Manasquan, N. J. Better cut out this notice and share it to any others who are ruptured—you may save a life or at least stop the memory of rupture and the worry and danger of an operation. Crowded stores indicate that Christmas presents giving in up to be a gift of the year. SundaySchool Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, B. D. in Teaching of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago). Copyright 1972, Western Newspaper Union. LESSON FOR DECEMBER 10 LESSON TEXT-Luke 10:25-37 GOLDEN TEXT-Thou shalt love thy neighbor as abysself-Lav. 18:18 TOPIC-Showing Kindness to a Stranger. JUNIOR TOPIC-The Story of the Good Samaritan. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC -Being a Good Neighbor. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -Who In My Neighbor! 1. How to Inherit Eternal Life (vv. 25-28). 1. The Lawyer's Question (v. 29). "Lawyer" here means one versed in religious law—the Scriptures. This does not mean lawyer in our modern sense of that term. It would more nearly correspond to a theological professor. The lawyer's object was to trap Jesus-to induce Him to take such a stand as would waken His influence as a teacher. He expected Jesus to set forth some new ceremonies which would conflict with or disparage the law. 2. Jesus' Question (v. 20). Though Jesus knew the motive of the lawyer He did not evade his question. He sent him to the law—the field which was familiar to him. He thus was robbed of his own weapon. 3. The Lawyer's Reply (v. 27). He made an intelligent answer declaring that the entire content of the law was embraced in love to God and man. This expresses the whole of human duty. 4. Jesus Reply (v. 28). This straightforward answer went to the heart of the lawyer. Perfect love to God and man is truly the way of life. No man has yet had or can have suffic love. His sinful condition precludes its possibility. Man's failure to measure up to this requirement is his condemnation. The lawyer keenly felt this thrust. He was defeated on his own grounds and convicted of guilt. II. Who Is My Neighbor (vv. 29-37). 1. The Lawyer's Question (v. 29). This question reveals the insincerity of the lawyer. Christ's answer had reached his conscience and now he seeks to escape the difficulty by asking a capitulous question. Lawyerlike he sought to get off by raising a question as to the meaning of words. 2. Jesus' Answer (vv. 30-37). Christ's reply more than answered the lawyer's question. In the parable of the Good Samaritan He makes clear who is a neighbor, and also what it means to be a neighbor, or what loving a neighbor means. Christ's answer had a double meaning. He not only made clear who is my neighbor, but made it clear that the lawyer was not playing the neighbor. He thus was convicted of not having been a neighbor. (1) Who is my neighbor? This destitute and wounded man left on the highway, by the robbers is the man who needs a neighbor. My neighbor, therefore, is the one who needs my help, whether he lives next door or on the outside of the world. Those who have the Spirit of Christ can see their neighbor on every hand! (2) What being a neighbor means. Our supreme concern should not be "Who is my neighbor?" but "Whose neighbor am I?" To be a neighbor is (a) to see those about us who need help (v. 33). Love is keen to discern need. We should be on the lookout for those in need of our help. (b) Have compassion on the needy (v. 33). Christ's compassion was aroused as He came into contact with those who were suffering and in need. All those who have His nature will be likewise moved. (c) Give to those in need (v. 34). Many are willing to give money to help the poor and needy, but are unwilling to personally minister to them. Many times the personal touch is more important than the material aid. We should give ourselves as our money. (d) Bind up wounds (v. 34). (e) Set the helpless ones on our beasts while we walk (v. 34). This is proof that love is genuine. Christians will deny themselves in order to have something to give to those who have need. This kind of sympathy is greatly needed today. (f) Bring to the inn and take care of the unfortunate (v. 34). Genuine love does not leap its service incomplete. Much Christian service is spasmodic, helps and then leaves a man to take care of himself. (g) Give money (v. 35). It costs a good deal to be a neighbor. Love is the most expensive thing in the world. It cost God His only Son. It cost Christian His life. May we go and do likewise! WE MANUFACTURE OUR OWN PREPARATIONS Will positively promote the growth of Hair in 3 months.

BEREA PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Some, formerly Presbyterians came to sit with us at the table.***Spiritual union is not outward uniformity.***The Rev. C. J. Baker, D.

But its possible all the way and it pays. No man believes anything effectively until he acts as if it were vital to him. BEREA PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH FIRST LYCEUM MEETING IS A SUCCESS Dr. Mangold Addresses Lyceum. The Berea Presbyterian Lyceum scored a success of its first meeting with Dr. George B. Mangold, Director of the Masonic School of Social Economy, as addressee. His attractive subject "Are We Creatures of Circumstances" was even made more attractive by the type and content of the address. The effect of such environments as home, school and so forth, taking lastly the effect of the church, which enters into all the others was discussed with the effectiveness resultant of training and experience such as Dr. Mangold has as a background. Says he, "Some would think that a child must live in a beautiful West end home with a beautiful lawn and hedge to have a good environment. While this is an aid in the child's development. What affects the child more is the life within the home. The life in a poor home can be made influentially good." In discussing child labor, as an evil influence in a community, he says "if child labor is bad for a community, child idleness is worse." The last idea brought out was the difference between heredity and environment. It is true many of us do not know where heredity ends and environment begins, so closely are these two influences interwoven at their connecting points. Many things that a child seems to do naturally are not inheritance so much as imitation. A child may inherit physically, but imitates mentally. Of course, since home and mother are the influences which envelope him most, these are the things he imitates. The musical numbers on program did no little credit to the musicians who performed. The meeting was adjourned with a strong determination on the part of all to be present at the next meeting Sunday, Dec. 17, 1922, at 5 p. m., at which time, Miss Grace L. Nichols, teacher of fine arts, Summer High School will address the Lyceum on "The Passion Play" as she witnessed it at Oberamernau, Germany.

ELECTRICIAN OF AU RICH PAGE TWELVE FOOTBALL Associated Negro Press. Is it possible for two wrongs to make a right? Quitting a game because you believed some injustice has been done your team does not justify the act. In looking over the records of schools and colleges. In the 1922 Football Guide, I find that the forfeited games of 1921 were among the high schools and colored colleges. In athletics we seem to keep in the high school class. Many of our leading schools at one time or another have forfeited games, but why should we keep up a bad habit, or try to justify ourselves by the dismal past? A person may write a book in an attempt to justify his school for quitting a certain game, but it doesn't do any good. The school must stand the blame. All schools in the Colored Intercollegiate Association at their next meeting should decide to eliminate from the association any school that, in the future, forfeits a game. The following findings were recently submitted by the Committee on Sportsmanship of the Association of Football Coaches of America. Fair Play Fair play is fundamental to all sport. In football, therefore, considerations should be given to the following suggestions: To provide the fairest playing field possible including the protection with hay or straw or other suitable covering to provide against freezing. Not to encroach by stands or spectators upon the playing field. To set and start the game at an hour which will permit an ample day light to finish it. To select good officials by mutual agreement or by appointment of some governing body several days before the game shall take place. To use only genuine students eligibility under amateur rules and the other rules of eligibility governing the institution. Good Sportsmanship Good sportsmanship involves fair play, but extends beyond it into the finer expressions of gentlemanliness and chivalry. The following suggest ideas are offered: Providing comforts and conveniences to the visiting team and its friends. Ceasing the cheering and making of noises while the general of the opposing team is giving signals. Applauding an outstandingly brilliant play or demonstration of personal pluck or act of fine sportsmanship on the part of an opponent. Treating the visiting team and supporters as guests, and not as enemies. Refusing to spy on an opponents signals. This does not discourage legitimate scouting at regularly played games. Endeavoring to avoid controversy and to encourage right feeling and courteous relations between the teams student bodies of the respective institutions. Going out on one's way to congratulate the coach and captain of the winning team. DETAILS OF FOOTBALL GAME BETWEEN HOWARD AND LINCOLN, TURKEY DAY WASHINGTON, D.

The score was 45 to 0 might as well been twice that and would have been had be left the regular team in the fray. This ended a very successful season for the West Virginians. Officials at Shrir College stated that they regretted that it had been impossible to arrange a schedule for the past season which included more games and with stronger teams. However, that an industrious effort was being made to arrange a stronger schedule for the coming season and with teams from bigger colleges.

The season's record shows that Shorter scored 71 points, while her opponents scored only 9. Four games were played, thus she scored 17%, and opponents 24% points per game on an average. LINCOLN UNIVERSITY MO. WINS FROM WESTERN COLLEGE. By John Jos. Reed. JEFFERSON CITY: Mo.—Lincoln University of Jefferson City, Missouri, playing on a muddy field, defeated the powerful Western University eleven here on Thanksgiving Day, November 30, 1922. The Lincoln lads, though bittenwounded held their opponents time after time for downs, permitting them to make their first down only twice during the game. Conch W. K. Jason, spring a surprise on the fans when he trotted forth two brilliant ends—Hamilton and Haley, both subs. Hamilton caused the fans to gasp by his playing in the Topeka game, while Haley received his first opportunity to exhibit his wares against the Western Warriors. Their ability to diagnose plays conceived by the tricky Western backs, elevated their playing to the realm of the spectacular. Western received her most disheartening disappointment when these lads deprived her of her one opportunity to score when on Lincoln's 5 yard line. Lincoln's opportunity came late in the 2nd quarter. After three trials Gantt took the sphere over for the only touchdown of the game; but failed to kick goal. Lincoln's playing was distinguished both by individual starring and consistent team work. Lincoln has lost but one game during the season. KENTUCKY NORMAL, PEARL HIGH AND FISK 1.

St. Louis Wins From Springfield, Mo Lincoln High Of E. St. Louis Wins From Springfield, Mo EAST ST. LOUIS, Dec. 1—Lincoln High School lived up to tradition at Cubs' Park yesterday when they captured their first Turkey Day gridiron battle with the touched Springfield, Mo. team by a score of 19-0. Outweighed approximately twenty pounds per man, the Lincoln team displayed such speed and trick plays that the visitors were bewildered from the opening whistle until the game ended with the Orange and Black team victorious in their Thanksgiving Day game for the eighth consecutive year. Lincoln scored a touchdown in each of the first three quartets, adding their extra point after he second crossing of the visitors' line—Hassel, Searog, W. Clark, L.

Hassel scored Lincoln's first touchdown eight minutes after the start of the game going through center for necessary six yards to cross the last white line. Searog caught a long forward pass for the second touchdown in the second quarter scoring the extra point when they made the five yards with a short pass, while Lorraine Clark scored the third in the third quarter when he went through the line on an off tackle play for fifteen yards. Springfield depended almost entirely on line plunging when they were in possession of the ball, although facing a much lighter team they were unable to gain consistently. In the entire second half they did not use a single forward pass, while in the second they completed both passes attempted but never seriously endangered the Lincoln goal line. Future Of Negro Baseball In Pittsburgh Is In Doubt Future Of Negro Baseball In Pittsburgh Is In Doubt Preston News Service. PITTSTOWN, Pa. Dec. 8.—The razing of the grand stand and the fences at the Central Park marks the passing of A. W. Williams' forlorn effort to establish a remunerative amusement park in this city for the race. During the life time of the park a number of very interesting athletic contests were staged at this place. The park, however, was too small for successful baseball, but its location in the central part of the city made it an ideal place for serving the wants of the people here. But for some unknown reason or other the management of the park did not appeal to the people here sufficient to support the enterprise. Just what Mr. William plans to do with the park another season has not been definitely learned. To say that Pittsburgh is not a base ball town would be an egregious mis statement of facts. This is a baseball city, and under the proper management a membership in the Negro National League could be made a profitable venture. Of course, not being able to have Sunday games militates some what against successful baseball here but the Daylight savings plan in this city makes it possible, to have very successful twilight games here. It is hoped that some wide-awake businessmen in Pittsburgh will make an effort to connect with the National Negro League and have this city included in the circuit. The brand of baseball played at Central Park by the visiting teams of the league gave Pittsburghers an insite into what Negro ball players can do and gradually increased in regular patronage. The first requisite for Pittsburgh is a winning, bull team, and that takes finance to secure and maintain. Pittsburgh burghers will support a winning team to the limit. A winning team will work wonders in his city. The man set of men here who hags the business sagacity and nerve to place a first class baseball team in Pittsburgh can coin money. DEMPSEY TO GET MILLION DOLLARS FOR THREE CORNERED FIGHT DEMPSEY TO GET MILLION DOLLARS FOR THREE CORNERED FIGHT Is To Meet Wrestler Lewis And Two Heavyweight Boxers, Probably Wills And Beckett Associated Negro Press. CHICAGO, H. Dec. 6.—Jack Dempsey, passing through Chicago last week on his way to Salt Lake City to fill a vandelleville engagement, announced through his manager, Jack Kerns, that he had accepted the offer of A. H. Woods, theatrical promoter to meet Ed. (Strangler) Lewis, world's heavyweight wrestling champion, in a mixed bout, and two heavy-boxers, to be selected by the promoter. Dempsey is to receive $1,000,000 for the three bouts and the time and place will be agreed upon after Dempsey returns East following the close of his vandelleville tour of the coast. The two boxers Dempsey will meet likely will be Harry Wills, the New Orleans Negro, and Joe Beckett, the British heavyweight champion. Kerns said. Woods' million-dollar offer to Dempsey was made while the heavy-weight boxing champion was in Memphis, from where he arrived in Chicago yesterday morning on his way West. He has had it under consideration for a week and Kerns yesterday wired Woods of his acceptance. Siki Is Defended By A Member Of Deputies Siki Is Defended By A Member Of Deputies Preston News Service, PARIS, France, Dec. 6.—Again the French people have shown their attitude in reference to race questions. A champion for Battling Siki has appeared in the person of M. Danghe a Senegalese member of the Chamber of Deputies, in a long statement to a loading daily newspaper here. He charges that there long been a movement on foot to get rid of Siki, and that his defeat of Carpenter brought matters to a head. The deputy said that when the budget was up for discussion in the chamber he would expose the successive hostile acts of the French Boxing Commission and that he would ask the deputies to suppress any steps by the government in subvention thereto. HIS MEAL TICKET MUST BE RUNNING SHORT Prestan News Service. CHICAGO, Ill. Dec. 8—Announcement comes that Jack Dempsey, present title holder of heavyweight championship is ready to fight anybody in the world regardless of race, creed or nationality. He went out to Salt Lake City, Utah, to give out this statement. It is claimed that Dempsey says he is ready to step into the ring to meet anybody with 48 hours' notice. The wily Jack Kerns sees that his meal ticket is getting short and he must keep things moving in some way to replenish the longevity of this ticket. Harry Wills is still playing the silent drama "Watchful Waiting" for a chance of the little but Kerns knows that a match with Wills would endanger the lease on the meal ticket so he must resort to all sorts of camoflage to prevent a meeting between his champ and the Bronz Panther of New Orleans as long as possible. THE S.T. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, DEC. 8, 1922 THE FEDERAL CONFERENCE ON THE BROADCASTING OF THE WORLD'S FILM MOVIES. Commission Report On "Continent Of Great Misunderstanding" Continued From Last Week. Associated Negro Press New York, Nov. 29.—Africa, like every other land of continental proportions, has all types of climates due to latitude and altitude, is a statement embodied in the report of the African Education Commission Just published by the Phleps-Stokes Fund For Instance, British South Africa which is one half the area of the United States, is almost entirely in the South Temperate Zone. All the West Coast Colonies have some high sections where the tropical heat is favorably modified, while the great Congo Basin has an average altitude of one thousand feet. In further discussion on the subject the report says: "Even in the lower levels where mosquitoes and tsetse flies have been a menace to health and life missionaries, merchants and government officials are living with considerable safety and comfort. Members of the Education Commission were repeatedly impressed by the sight of Europeans and Americans who have lived in these regions for many years. In one American mission station, just where the Onga River crosses the Equator, the Commission saw four American families with seven children, all in good health in another station in Lower Congo there were two American missionaries and their wives who have served an average of forty years in that region notorious for malaria and sleeping sickness. "The health experience of the Education Commission is most reassuring to travelers in Africa. This party of Americans and Europeans with one native African traveled 25,000 miles for ten months in coast and interior regions of Africa, absolutely without illness from any African cause. The only precautions required were helmets in the tropics, daily rain in malarial regions, and boiled water where the supply was not supervised." That the prosperity of all peoples is dependent upon co-operative relations with other peoples, and that the influence of the white races on Africa has so far been, on the whole, good are conclusions reached by the commission. Excerpts from the report on the subject follow: "Some have thought that the influence of Europeans and Americans have been more for evil than for good. Some have thought that it would have been better to leave the African in his natural condition. Few have realized the importance of the movements that have been started and the changes that have been wrought. It must be stated that many mistakes have been many and many injustices perpetrated. In some sections the Africans have suffered tragically at the hands of selfish white explorers. Evil influences originated by white people still persist in too many parts of Africa. "It is, however, the sympathetic conviction of the Education Commission that the gains that have come to Africa through the white man are far greater than the losses. Among the most conciling evidences of this conviction are those obtained from a study of the portions of Africa now ruled by European nations." The elements of life that reflect the changes introduced by the white groups have been the improvement of physical well-being, including the decrease of sickness and death and the attendant suffering; the decrease and often the elimination of the power of witchcraft, a form of oppression exceedingly general and cruel; the overthrow of intertribal slavery; the development of friendly relations among tribes formerly hostile; the extension of the economic benefits of the country to all the tribes and the opening of the doors of civilization to those who were formerly limited to the narrow compass of their tribes." Admitting that the extension of commercial, industrial and even governmental influences sometimes have too often been attended with suffering on the part of the native people, the report continues: "The early periods of adjustment to the new forces are especially trying. But in the long run one of the best measures of the final influence of the white group upon the native peoples is the increase or decrease of population. So long there are no records of the feelings of the native masses we must rely upon the vital measure that reflects the condition of the majority of the group to maintain life. On this basis, the statistics of most of the colonies show a decided increase in population and therefore an improvement in general welfare." NEW YORK. Dec. 6.—Convinced of what it terms "the improvability of the natives" the African Education Commission not only emphasizes the need of educational developments which will reach the masses in forms adapted to promote their economic and social well-being, but it also urges the importance, of training native leaders to assist in this development. "However difficult it may be to understand the contribution natives can make in the teaching and direction of their people, effective education and sound government require the training of native leadership," says the Report. "The increasing enthusiasm of native peoples the world over for self-determination and nationalism is sound and helpful so long as it makes for self-respect. It is unfortunate only when it results in distrust or hostility toward other peoples." The recommendation is made that the training of native leaders be based on a comprehensive system of secondary schools and each of these schools be adapted to the particular requirements—rural, urban or specific—of its community. In the matter of college education the report says among other things: the report says among other things: "Though college education for the African youth is limited to two institutions for study in Europe and America, it is certain that the development of native leadership will require more college facilities as the standards of education advance. If college education is of value to any group, surely it is to those who are to be the natives guides of African people whose existence is beset with so many perplexing problems. "More and more leadership of Africans is developing upon the strong and capable native men and women. Successful leadership requires the best lessons of sociology, economics, and education. Without such leadership misunderstandings will multiply and increase in perplexity." The Commission outlines four essentials of educational policy and organization required to give Africa an adequate and real system, to with Adaptations of education, organization and supervision, education of masses and native leadership, and cooperation for the education of Africans. On this subject the Report develops the following argument: Africa is overwhelmingly rural and the great mass of her people will always be close to the soil and derive their sustenance from the products of the soil; but they require more than instruction in agriculture and animal husbandry. Personal hygiene and community sanitation—the simple handicrafts of the kralat of tribal village, and appreciation of proxy in home life and of deceyny in dress, leadership in developing suitable recreation for the use of leisure time, an appreciation of their own history, folklore, and music—such is the circumfusion of an adapted education—which the Report proposes. The Report emphasizes the fact that if the masses are ready to be reached, the great bulk of the educational activities will necessarily be centered in simple one-and-two teacher schools in two villages, a system similar to the Rossenwald Schools in the South. Upon a system of community schools recruiting teachers from central training schools, can be developed, a higher education serving the needs of the ministry, medicine, law, engineering, and other professions, as well as colleges. HEMAN E. PERRY GIVES ATLANTA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE $250.00. Preston News Service ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 20.—To show the interest of Negroes here in the upholding of Atlanta Herman E. Perry, directing head of the Service Company, Standard Life Insurance Company and the Citizens Trust Company, gave a check for $250.00 to the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce last Monday, making it plight in a letter of transmittal, that this check was simply a token of expression of the Negroes' interest in the welfare and growth of Atlanta. Walter O. Fonte, president of the Chamber of Commerce, commenting on the contribution from Mr. Perry says: "Mr. Perry is one of the best educated Negroes in Atlanta. He is the directing head of the Service Company, the Standard Life Insurance Company and the Citizens Trust Company, all of which are owned by Negro stock with white people here and stands high with them. "The Chamber of Commerce has no colored members. The fact was thereby understood by Mr. Perry in making the contribution. He neither asked nor made a bid for a membership, but sent the contribution as an expression of interest. It is one of the most highly appreciated contributions the chamber has received from any source." MORE THAN FIFTY NEGRO MINERS DEAD IN ALABAMA DISASTER Preston News Service BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Dec. 1, Of 6 the 84 persons who lost their lives in the frightful disaster at Dolmite Mine No. 3, near here last Wednesday more than fifty were Negroes. It is said. The reported cause of the fatal disaster is said to have been when a string of coal dump cars broke loose can away and dropped 800 feet down an incline and the impact created a cloud of coal dust. The crash of the runaway cars severed a high tension electric cable and the flash of sparks therefrom ignited the explosive coal dust. So terrific was the explosion that the shock was felt for several miles in surrounding territory. It is said that all of the mine bosses were killed (they were white men) and scores of Negro miners lost their lives in making a herole effort to shut themselves off into rooms to keep out the deadly gas caused by the burning dust and explosion It is claimed that this mine has been in operation since 1882 without a serious accident until last Wednesday. The deadly after-damp formed immediately after the explosion and caused the death toll to be so large. The breaking of the electric cable cut off the power and caused the ventilating fans to stop. It took about thirty minutes after the explosion for the men to get the emergency fans run by gasoline engines in operation. "The New York Post" On Japanese Decision NEW YORK CITY. Nov. 29. "The New York Post" makes the following interesting editorial comment on the U. S. Supreme Court's recent Japanese citizenship decision: "There is voting sensational in the decision of the Supreme Court than Japanese cannot become naturalized in this country. The sensational decision would be one to the opposite effect. As Justice Southerland observed the privilege of naturalization was confined to white persons in every naturalization law from 1790 to 1870. In 1870 it was extended to persons of African descent. In 1903 Congress had intended to alter a rule that had been in operation from the beginning of the government. it would have done so in unmistakable language. The court had an alternative, therefore but to declare that there had been no legal change in our policy in excluding Japanese from becoming American citizens by naturalization. This decree and mean that there can be no such person as an American citizen of Japanese blood. Japanese who are born in this country and subject to its jurisdiction are American citizens by the Fourteenth Amendment like all other persons so born and governed. Even a Chinese who is in category is an American citizen. The fact that his parents cannot become citizens has no effect upon his status whatever.
