WORLD'S BEST NEWS:—The angel said unto them, Fear not; for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord—Luke 2: 10, 11 CHRISTMAS GREETINGS. Tomorrow is the 1921st anniversary of the birth of Christ, the Son of God. The observance of Christmas as the day of the birth of the Savior is by common consent a pleasing and profitable custom, and it is moreover the one thing in which Christians of all denominations, with but few exceptions, actually concur. In almost every other particular, creed, doctrine, rites and ceremonies, there is almost infinite diversity of opinion and practice; in regard to the propriety of making the alleged day of our Savior's birth, a holiday, there is substantial unity and, by some means or other, the birth of Christ has been so impressed upon the world's customs and manners, that every event in its history, social, governmental and personal, must necessarily, be connected with that important event as the orbs of the solar system are with the great luminary. Thus Christ is the light of the world, and all our affairs are connected with Him as the planets are bound to the sun by the law of gravitation. In every letter we write, every deed we execute, every item of business we transact, custom has made it necessary and unavoidable that we should connect the transaction with the truth of Christ. And it is a significant fact that the nations that thus recognize the Savior, in even an incidental manner are those most advanced in intelligence and civilization—those that are most powerful and prosperous, those that really govern the world. The nations that celebrate the 25th of December and that designate the present year 1921 are the favored ones of the world. That such is the case can be attributed to no other cause than Christianity, of which Christmas is the emblem. We wish all our readers A MERRY CHRISTMAS. HONOR GIVEN WHEN DUE. It is with very much satisfaction that we learn, Rene Maran, a young colored author, born on the Island of Martinique, French West Indies, has won the annual prize of the Goncourt academy for the best French novel of 1921. The novel, entitled "Batouala," deals with colored life in Central Africa, the race question and problems and aspirations of the colored people. France has a very pleasing way of giving honor wherever due and talent is duly and fully recognized even when found under a colored skin. Vive la France. THIRTY-EIGHT LYNCHED WHILE The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Ave., New York, has made public a statement to the effect that since the introduction of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in Congress on April 11, 1921, there had been 38 persons murdered by mobs in the United States, of whom two were burned, four bodies being publicly burned after lynching. One of those lynched was a colored woman. Three were white men. Since the Dyer bill was favorably reported by the Committee on the Judiciary, on October 31, 1921, there have been seven lynchings, one body being publicly burned, in Helena, Ark. Among the causes assigned for these lynchings are the following: 1. A colored man called to inquire of a white girl why she had not replied to a note he had written her. He was lynched for this offense. 2. An old man was accused of assisting a man to escape. 3. Two colored men were lynched for aiding a third to escape. 4. One colored woman was thrown from a bridge and drowned for assisting a colored man to escape. Georgia leads in the list of lynchings since the Dyer bill was introduced, having had 10. Mississippi is second with 7, South Carolina third, with 5; Louisiana fourth, with 4, and Arkansas and Texas each have 3. From the above everyone may readily see the urgent necessity of writing to the state Representatives in Congress urging their support for the early passage of the bill. DEATH OF ABDUL BAHA. A cable from Haifa Syria, announced the death in that city of Abdul Baha Abbas, one of the greatest men of the day and the leader of the Bahaist movement. Abdul Baha, "servant of God," traveled through the United States in 1912 and visited St. Paul among other places. He was the guest of the large congregation of Bahaists in Chicago the latter part of April and early in May in 1912 and on May 1, he dedicated the site at the Sheridan road bridge in Wilmette, a suburb of Chicago, where the Bahaists are now building a temple costing several millions of dollars, to be the world center of Bahaism. Abul Baha was born in Teheran, Persia. He was the successor of the Bab, "gateway of knowledge," who began about 1844 proclaiming throughout Islam the coming of a messenger of God and made much headway until executed at the age of 31. The noble father of Abdul Baha was Mirza Hossein Ali of Nour, a disciple of the Bab. Father and son were banished in 1868 to Akka, a prison city in Syria. Forty years later the Young Turks overthrew the despotic regime in Constantinople, and Abdul Baha was freed. The death of Abdul Baha will be mourned by millions of his co-religionists all over the world and it is now claimed that there is at least 50,000,000 of them, who practice as well as preach that "of one blood God made all nations." There are many thousands of colored people in the United States who have left orthodox Christianity and have become Bahaists because of hypocrisy of the so-called Christians on the color question. NOT A MAGNA CARTA We are sorry to notice that some colored man has written an article in which he says that President Harding's Birmingham speech is a "Magna Charta of Negro rights." Evidently the gentleman, like President Harding has not thought the question through. Instead of being a great charter of liberties, it is really a curse hurled at the colored people from which it will take a thousand years to recover. We have gathered together and reprint in this issue many columns of comment on the President's Southern speeches and we recommend that the people who have been disposed to swallow the discourses in toto, should read the articles carefully and learn of the dangers which lurk in the President's utterances. WERE THE CARDS STACKED Twenty-three years ago the United States occupied the Philippine Islands, promising independence for the Fili- pinos in about twenty years or as soon as the natives were "qualified for freedom." Shortly after coming into power the present Republican administration As promised in the advertisement published last week in this paper by the New Charter Club (an organization consisting of the general public), further facts and figures concerning the cost of city government are now submitted to the voters who will decide on December 29th (Thursday of next week) whether or not they wish to remain in a system that has given us such a startling increase in expenditures. THE NATIONAL CENSUS INDICATES SAINT PAUL'S POPULATION INCREASE HAS "SLOWED UP"; OUR POPULATION GREW FROM 215,000 in 1910 to 235,000 in 1920. WHILE MINNEAPOLIS INCREASED FROM 301,000 in 1910 TO 380,000 in 1920. WHAT'S THE MATTER? LISTEN! When the present form of city government became operative we were spending (exclusive of interest on bonds) $3,722,819.35 to run the city (see Comptroller's report of 1915 expenditures). After five years under the present system we are spending to run the city (exclusive of interest on bonds) $7,174,586.48 (see Comptroller's report of city expenditures for 1920). The city paid out for interest in 1915, $731,432.28, and in 1920, $1,378,595.67—an increase of $647,163.09 in the interest item alone in 1920 over 1915. The totals (see Comptroller's report) including interest are $4,454,251.63 for 1915 and $8,553,182.15 for 1920. This is an increase of 92 per cent in city expenditures during a period in which the population increased about 5 per cent (figured at the rate of increase shown by the census of 2,000 per year). The present city government wanted to spend even more money and were stopped—no, they didn't stop themselves; they were stopped by law. When the census showed only 235,000 people in 1922, expenditures being on the basis of over 260,000 population (at $30 per capita) were illegal. So they went before the people last May to bid "Go us more money—raise the per capita to $35". If they had passed the $25 amendment they would have spent $1,175,000.00 more of your money. But the people mistrusted them and said "no." The logical thing for the people to do now—having registered an emphatic vote of protest against the "grab" in May (the $35 amendment failed to carry a single precinct, the vote being more than 2 against)—is to complete the job of voting out the system under which the waste and inefficiency has occurred. This can be done by voting "yes"—for the new Charter, December 29th. THE SAME PEOPLE WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRESENT HIGH TAXES AND WHO TRIED TO MAKE THEM HIGHER BY THE PROPOSED $25 AMENDMENT to ARE OPPOSING WITH ALL THEIR ENERGIES THE ATTEMPT TO GET A NEW CHARTER ADOPTED IN ORDER TO CHECK EXTRAVAGANCE CONSTRUCTIVE FEATURES OF NEW CHARTER A district representation on the same theory as state representation in the district is State Legislatures as provided by National and State Constitutions. 2. Retention of civil service, teachers' pensions, city bank and other desirable features of the present charter, doing away only with the undesirable features, such as unequal representation and calling a man "mayor" who has no real power or responsibility. The new charter gives the mayor responsibility and power to carry out the wishes of the people who elect him. 3. A budget to be passed on by the legislative branch of the government after submission by departments—the American plan as opposed to the present plan under which the men who make the budget also appropriate the money and spend it; this provision of the present charter is all wrong and the past seven years has proven it extravagant and wasteful almost beyond belief. 4. $12 per capita is allowed for schools, which is $1.23 per capita more than was spent for the same purposes in 1920; at this rate the city may spend for educational purposes in 1922 the sum of $2,868,000.00 or nearly $338,000.00 more than was spent in 1920. These are facts—verify them—they are taken from the Comptroller's reports and reports of the U. S. Census Bureau. Call for the pamphlet entitled "Facts about the proposed new charter"; read it—then vote for the best interests of the city. the pamphlet entitled "Facts about the proposed new charter"; read it—then vote for the best interests of the city. Polls will be open from 6 A. M. to 9 P. M. You needn't register; just go to the polls and vote, Thursday, December 29. Come in and enroll your name in the cause of a better, bigger and busier city. NEW CHARTER CLUB An organization of volunteer citizens-working for better government and a reduction of taxes in Saint Paul. Fourth and Robert Sts. Phones: Cedar 6137; Cedar 6119; Cedar 6109. VOTE "YES"-FOR A NEW CHARTER sent a mission consisting of Gen. Leonard Wood and W. Cameron Forbes to investigate present conditions and the report, which has just been made public, recommends that the United States must keep the islands. Months ago, long before the investigation had been completed, Gen. Wood was nominated for governor and is now in office. Did Uncle Sam stack the cards on the liberty-loving Filipinos? TRUE TO FORM. At the Detroit Methodist conference Emmett J. Scott declared "The Negro does not ask social equality and never has asked it. All he asks is social justice." But, pray how can the colored man get "social justice unless he has every kind of equality before the law and in public ophion?" Dominant people do not give exact justice to people they consider their inferiors., Scott was private secretary to Booker Washington for nearly twenty years and was well trained to reiterate that the colored man does not want that and other things which would please the South. Now that he is away from Tuskegee he ought to learn a new tune. JIM CROW LEADERS We present in this issue a symposium of views of colored editors in various parts of the country on the speeches of President Harding in Birmingham, Ala., and Atlanta, Ga. One of the strongest of these is an editorial from the Richmond (Va.) Planet, by that fearless journalist, John Mitchell, Jr. Referring to the desire of President Harding to have more "negro" leaders developed, The Planet says: THE SOUTH IS FULL OF THIS KIND OF LEADERS. DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON DID HIS PART IN DEVELOPING THIS KIND OF LEADERSHIP. IN LATER YEARS HE REALIZED THAT HE HAD GONE TOO FAR, TO THE EXTENT OF ELIMINATING THE PRINCIPLES OF MAN HOOD, WITHOUT WHICH NO RACE CAN RISE TO THE FULL HEIGHT OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. This is a strong statement yet it is absolutely true. No single thing in the history of the colored people in the United States has done so much to prevent the full attainment of citizenship as that speech of Booker Washington delivered in Atlanta, Ga., in 1895. Since then the descent to hell has been swift and sure and the depths were sounded when the other day, Warren G. Harding, President of the United States, stood by the side of the Grady monument in Atlanta, pronounced a eulogy on Henry W. Grady, the most bitter, dangerous and insidious enemy of the colored people that the country has produced, declared that the race question must be settled by the segregation of American citizens. Lured on by the enthusiastic reception by the South of the B. Washington speech and the white man's "good negro" pat on the shoulder, the jimcrow leaders' tribe has increased so enormously that it is now a menace to be reckoned with in every community in which there are a hundred colored men. Before he died Boaker Washington repented in bitterness what he had done and longed for life to wash out his unwise course but it was too late. Although it may be news to many, it is a fact that after his death an article, written by him, was printed in a leading magazine, in which he repudiated segregation which he had so long championed. No greater calamity could befall the colored people than the harvesting of a new crop of "jimcrow negro leaders." BUNK! Under the heading "Gamaliel Emulates Gililean," the Republican Publicity Association is sending out to Republican newspapers a lot of dope comparing President Harding to Jesus Christ, but the resemblances are not many. Christ did not teach that there were "fundamental, eternal and unescapable differences" between human beings. Rich and poor, bond and free, black and white all looked alike to the Galilean. The U. S. Senate has refused to confirm Henry Lincoln Johnson as recorder of deeds, even after he had declared for the President's segregation program. The fight against him was led by Senator Watson of Georgia. Four coal black Africans are members of the French Chamber of Deputies. France is the only great nation which has admitted the principle of direct representation of colonials in the national parliament. Porto Ricans are demanding the recall of E. Mont Reilly who was recently appointed governor. He is charged with deep-seated prejudice against the natives.

Announces Its Annual Meeting for January 3, 1922 The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Ave., New York, has announced its annual meeting of the year to be held on January 3, 1922. The business meeting at 2 o'clock in the afternoon is to be held in the Russell, Sage Foundation Building, 130ast 22nd St., New-York, and is to be followed by a mass meeting in the Peace Casino, 35th St. and Madison Ave. at KM. M. The Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and the Arkansas peons are to be discussed at the mass meeting, and it is expected that Representative Leonidas C. Dyer, who introduced the anti-lynching bill in Congress, will be one of the speakers. The other speakers will be James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P.; Charles Edward Russell, member of the Board of the N. A. A. C. P., and Rev. Mordecai W. Johnson, a brilliant and forceful speaker now studying at Harvard University, on leave of absence from his church in Charleston, W. Va. Mr. James Weldon Johnson will make a full report of the action of the N. A. A. C. P. in defending the victims of the riots in Arkansas and of the ten-year fight of the N. A. A. C. P. against lynching, culminating in the present Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. At the afternoon meeting of the N. A. A. C. P., the annual reports will be read of the secretary, treasurer and other officers; and members of the Board of Directors will be elected. Never you do not forget to attend the special sermon of Como Temple 128, Daughters of St. Luke's Sunday evening, Jan. 1, 1922, at St. James A. M. E. church. The sermon will be preached by Dr. H. L.

The time to feather ones nest, is when one has something to feather it with. The rainy day, as we call it, is sure to come. It may come in the form of sickness, or something else, at any time; and, it will surely come in the form of old age, if one lives long enough. If you are simply earning money and spending it, that is an awful thing. Blank earned from $100 to $200 per month for a dozen years, and then lost his job in the financial depression. In the meantime, money had gone to the bow wow; and, now, with a wife and two babies on his hands, and no job, and no money, he was in a bad fix. I hope to encourage you to put one-tenth of your income in a savings bank as a permanent reserve fund. I hope to encourage you to get a home of your own, on the installment plan, if necessary, but get a home of your own. And, with your own home and with your savings bank account increasing from week to week, you will have something to go on in case of reverses, and something - to live on when old age overtakes you.
