Bible Thought for Today POWER OF THE WORLD:—For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-eighted word, piercing even to theidding asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and narrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.—Hebrews 4:12. THE HIGH COST OF CRIME A report on an investigation conducted by the Baltimore AFRO. AMERICAN discloses that colored people in Baltimore pay out the astounding sum of $300,000 a year in court fines and in wages lost while answering court summons. It is a platitude that crime is productive of no good, either to the individual or to society. Never does it do society any good, else it would not be crime; and only in the fancy does it right wrong or satisfy a desire for revenge. If the $300,000 had been spent for the social advancement of the colored people in Baltimore what might the sum have done! It could have bought 100 homes costing $3,000, or sixty costing $5,000; it could have built, equipped and manned four splendid community centers; it could have built and stocked a library; it could have financed a half dozen worry business enterprises; it could have built two magnificent, modern churches. And so on. Colored people have been described as great spenders. Too often there is nothing to show for the spending. This report points out one of the leaks. It's up to Baltimore and other cities where money gets away in hundred thousand dollar amounts to stop the leaks and make capital work for advancement. JUSTICE IN LOUISIANA Last week a jury of white men in Louisiana freed a colored man of the charge of killing a white man. Attorneys for the defense proved that the killing had been done only after the colored man's wife had been brutally attacked by the white man. Surely a new sense of justice is seeping into the minds of Louisiana folk. It is one thing for southern university professors, bankers and clergymen to sit afar off and decree that the colored people should be given justice, and it is another thing for twelve white townsmen to see that they get it. It argues that the THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the counten the hearts of friend I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. rank and file are beginning to see the light. These isolated instances of fair play should not go unnoticed by the colored press. They are the straws to which the optimist would cling; they are the drops of oil that help quiet the rough waters of suspicion; they are the dikes that hold up the restive flood of malice and hate; they are the stuff of which hope is made, by which strong men are kept sane. Because they are these things they should be given the widest publicity in news and editorial columns. LETTING THE CAT OUT This whole Siki business is getting rather smelly. Every day or so somebody in France opens the bag a little bit wider. Pretty soon the cat will be out. A recent dispatch contains a denial by M. Cuny, the ring official, that Siki struck him. This alleged blow was the principle cause of the black battler's disqualification. A later dispatch says that the two sportsmen who are alleged to have signed the petition for Siki's disqualification never saw the document. The latest press report says that "insiders" hold that the boxing federation knew all along about crooked deals, but kept quiet for the good of the game. It won't be long now before the cat will come out. CONGRESS DEFAULTS The Democrats raised a smoke screen and defeated the Liberian loan largely because the Republicans did not very much care. A desirable filibuster, engineered by the same crowd, put the Dyer bill down for the count as far as this special session is concerned, and to all appearances as far as any other session is concerned. We wonder when we are going to get over all this Brother Harding stuff and go out to the polls in our own interests to show these political leaders that we remember when they fail us in the pinches. Being tied to a party makes for slavery. The sooner we learn to pick men rather than parties the better we will be off. We must go into politics for something else than political jobs. Our lives and our political economic freedom depend upon issues and not upon jobs. Seldom are the jobs big enough to give real influence or weight to their possessors. Will we remember when the next election comes?—A. L. Jackson in the Chicago Defender. Colored Franchise Urged on Harding Colored Franchise Urged on Harding Washington, Dec. 15 (Crusader Service)—Representative George H. Tinkham of Massachusetts in a letter to President Harding, written yesterday, has suggested that the failure to enforce the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution was just as flagrant as the current failure to enforce the Eightth Amendment. He suggested that "he President should enforce the failure to enforce the Fourteenth Amendment, which guarantees the colored man the right to vote, if he should comment upon the failure to enforce prohibition in his address to the next session of Congress. Representative Tinkham's letter to the President follows: Hon. Warren G. Harding, The White House M.D. C. Washington, D. C. My Dear Mr. President: It has been stated that in your address to be made at the opening of the Fourth THE SIN OF To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

There can be no content from its necessity. You will be required that the Constitution should be enforced equally and impartially and in no part nullified. With the greatest respect may I draw your attention to the fact that whereas the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution is permissive in its authorization of Congress to pass legislation to enforce it the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution, which commands Congress to reduce representation to enforce its dischernishment is mandatory and prescriptive and is now scandalously and completely unenforced and nullified. With the greatest respect, may I also draw your attention to the fact that with flagrant and widespread disfranchisement established by a mass of indisputable evidence now before Congress and by a common knowledge and the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution unenforced, the very tenure office you hold and the representation Congress is tainted with unconstitutional Unconstitutional tenure of office and illegal elections strike at the very heart of the moral sanctions behind laws and executive acts. Public authority, before demanding obedience, must itself obey. There can be no degree in faithlessness to the Constitution and its requirements, but if there were, surely the moral turpitude of violation of a constitutional mandate which involves the purity of the Government and constitutional organization of Government, as the violation of the Federal Statutes concerning the consumption of alcoholic beverages. May I, with the greatest respect and sincere hope that I transgress no propriety, suggest that in your addition you draw his attention to its present institutional composition and its own legal and constitutional obligations. I have the honor to be, my dear Mr. President, Yours obedient servant, GEORGE HOLDEN TINKHAM Red Parade Seen By Colored Correspondent Red Parade Seen By Colored Correspondent C. Valentine for Crusader Service Moscow, Dec. 15.—I landed in Petrograd on the 10th of October, and on the 5th of November we had a big celebration, as the 'opening' Fourth Congress of the Third International was celebrated in that city. I was cordially received and generously entertained by officials and citizens. On the 6th I witnessed the mach of the delegates to the graves of the heroes of the Revolution, and also saw the review of the Red Army. There were two colored men in the room to whom every conceivable kind of assistance was given as evidence of the friendship of Soviet Russia toward our oppressed race. In the evening I left on the "Trotzky Train" for Moscow with the delegates to the Congress. I was the only press correspondent so honored. The "Trotzky Train" is the best train I have been in in all Europe—well equipped, with library and radio. On the 7th we arrived in Moscow and marched immediately to the Red Square, in front of the Kremlin, where parade is made once and Trotzky spoke. This was one of the earliest events I have seen. The Red and Navy are well-equipped and driver terror into the hearts of all enemies of Soviet Russia. But the celebration and parade also consisted of the workers and children. The parade started at 11 a. m. and was not over until 7 p. m. The spirit and enthusiasm of the masses is noticeable. I am leaving for Constantinople tonight and will send full report from there, the cable rates are too high to go into details here.

A. A. C. P. Calls Du Bois, Weldon 'Johnson Robert Vann, "Political Bolshe- New York, Dec. 15.—Astounding revelation of the activity of Perry W. Howard in an effort to defeat the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill was made today at the office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which made public the text of a letter written by Mr. Howard to Senator T. Coleman Du Pont of Delaware. This letter was dated November 23, 1922, just three days after the opening of the Special Session and at the time when every effort was being made to have the bill brought up and pushed. In this letter, Mr. Howard declares he has "blood in his eyes" for the N. A. A. C. P., which he calls a "Negro Democratic Organization" and insists that no legislation ought to be enacted by reason of the N. A. A. C. P., or its sympathizers. Letter Published Mr. Howard's letter is in part as follows: I received your letter of Nov. 22 upon my return from the West; where I have been almost the entire time since the close of the campaign. I confess to you that I have blood in my eyes for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and others who have used them with sinister designs to defeat some of the best friends that we have in particular and the nation in general. The purpose of this letter is to call attention of you and other outstanding statesmen to the fact that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is purely a Negro Democratic organization and has always been found on the side of the Democrats in the final analysis. This organization was used by Bob Nelson and other, and you owe your defeat to no other agency. I corrected the evil in Wilmington, and if I could have gone into the Dover neighborhood on the following Monday, I could have saved the day, but I had an engagement to fill for Senator Frelinghuysen, and you know it was impossible for me to do so. Now, I may call attention to the fact that whatever legislation or whatever else is done for the colored people of this country ought certainly to be done and done promptly, but I insist that none of it ought to be done through or by reason of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People or any of its sympathizers. I therefore think that it should be the policy of the leaders of the party like you to absolutely ignore and give the back of your hand to such men as Nelson, James Weldon Johnson, W. F. B. Du Bois, Robert L. Vann of Pittsburgh, and others of their ilk, should be no quarters; and while tracing all colored man with fairness and looking at the interest of our group, these political bolshevists should be annihilated as the basest of ingrates. (Signed) PERRY W. HOWARD In Mr. Howard's letter to Senator Du Pont, it was stated that copies were being sent to Senators Frelinghsen, McCormick, Watson and Moses, also to Attorney General Daugherty, who it is to be presumed would be interested in the charge by Mr. Howard that Messrs. Nelson Du Bois, James Weldon Johnson and Vann are "political bolshevists." Copies of Mr. Howard's letter were furthermore sent to Charles Adams, chairman of the Republican National Committee and were circulated among prominent Republican Sehators. Mr. Howard's reference to his willingness to "save the day" in the Dover neighborhood will interest those colored readers who recall that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was instrumental in defeating Dr. Caleb R. Layton,黛尔's Republican representative on the sole ground that he misrepresented his constituents by voting against the Dyer Anti-Lynchmine in the House of Representatives. Delaware Fight Cited The defeat of Dr. Layton largely through the enthusiastic and role work of Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson, was regarded among colored people as one as among white politicians as one of the most convincing demonstrations of solidarity and power ever evinced by colored voters in America. Delaware became an object lesson to the Republican party, showing the strong feeling among colored voters about the Dyer Bill. It is presumably the product of the enactment of colored voters accomplished sole issue of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, that Mr. Perry Howard could have "saved the day." Mr. Howard was appointed to an office in the Department of Justice by President Harding. Mr. Howard is also a close personal friend of Senator Pat Harrison of Mississippi. It was Senator Harrison who helped to defeat the Liberian Loan Bill by stating that he had "information" that certain colored men were to benefit heavily financially by the passage of this legislation. In the same tenor as Mr. Perry W. Howard's letter was a paragraph widely circulated among the colored press, asserting that lobbying by the N. A. C. P. would hinder enactment of the Dyer Anti-Lynch Bill because Republican leaders regarded the Association as a "Democratic ally with Socialistic tendencies." killing of the Dyer, Bill by Republican surrender, by announcing a mass meeting for Monday night to hear the report of the league's representative at the U.

SAFEMILK Phone: Elkhurst 3163 The league worked till the last moment, then telegraphed to Presidinf Harding to recommend the measure in his, new message, and sent a protest to Sen. Lodge and a demand that he lead in a move to revise the Senate rules so as to make blocking of consideration of legislation less easy. The White House answered as follows; MINNESOTA MILK CO. I have before me your message of December 1st, to the President. As you know, the President has made every effort possible in behalf of this measure. Its present status is not a promising one, but it is still hoped that something may be accomplished along this line in the near future. The telegram said league was astonished at Republican caucus voting to promise the Southernners to kill the Dyer Bill and protested the monumental surrender by a Senate major-committee. The committee instituting utter abandonment of coerced Americans in flagrant violation of party and personal pledges. Diamonds Merry Xmas!

Communist Funds Back N.A.A.C.P. Ku KluX Charges "Emperor" of Invisible Empire Says Du Bois Got $20,000,000 for Race Cause. Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 15 (Crusader Service)—"Col." William J. Simmons, founder of the Ku Klux Klan, in a speech before the recent Imperial Klonovocation of the oath-bound disguised anti-"Negro" anti-Jew, antiCatholic, anti-foreigner and anti-radical order, made the amazing declaration that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People had been given $20,000,000 by the Bolshevik for the purpose of securing political and social equality for colored people of the United States, in line with the resolutions to that effect passed by the Fourth Congress of the Third International in one of its recent sessions in Moscow, at which colored delegates - from the United States reported on the condition of the race in this country. The speech of "Col." Simmons, former Imperial Wizard, but now Emperor of the Invisible Empire, as reported in the Atlanta Searchlight for Dec. 2, 1922, an ill-informed, intemperate diatribe against Turks, Catholics, Reds, Japanese, Radicals and colored people. The part regarding Dr. Du Bois' organization reads as follows: "In the South there are 11,100,000 colored people, enfranchised in 1866 while still speaking the jargon of the jungle, and were given lordship over Anglo-Saxon civilization in the Southern states. The vast population, but one generation removed from savagery, has been the constant prey of scheming, designing, selfish, polluted politicians. Organizations have been formulated and financed by unscrupulous men to further their particular interests, political and otherwise, through offering the colored man political or social quality or both. More recently the Bolshevik organization in Russia, have proclaimed their purpose to bolshevise America, beginning with the colored race, and for the preliminary purpose of organization it is alleged, $20,000,000 were appropriated and placed under the direction of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People." The above declaration from such a source shows that to the K. K. K. bolshievism and freedom of colored people are somehow associated. Perception is called "Colonel" who boasts of his 100% American be be unintentionally showing colored people a way of escape from their present oppression.

It was not organized with a view of competing with commercial companies, but to meet a war-time emergency and to give added protection at a time and at a rate that no commercial company could assume. The Government took risks on over four and one-half million lives. This insurance plan was worked out by the greatest insurance experts in the country, and the premium rates were based on the actual cost of insurance on a peace-time basis. Government Insurance is divided into two classes, the U. S. Government Life Term Insurance, and the U. S. Government Life Converted Insurance. The premium rates on the former increase with the age of the insured and the premium rates on the latter remain the same throughout the life of the contract.

Harlem Night Raid Nets 83 Whites Population of Cabaret District Changes Color With Setting of Sun, Police Find. New York, Dec. 15 (Crusader Service).—That colored Harlem's night population is totally different from the daylight population has long been evident to careful observers, but was publicly revealed yesterday when 83 white men and women were arrested in a raid on "shuffles Inn" and were in $10 bail each for examination by Magistrate McQuade in the Washington Heights Court. The usual custom in such cases is to discharge the prisoners with a reprimand, by Magistrate McQuade injected the race question into a moral question, and told the prisoners there were sufficient white carbarets for white folk to visit without going to places maintained by colored people. He remandde them all and they were downstairs to wait the appearance of friends with the necessary bail bonds. The prisoners consisted of twenty-nine women between the ages of 18 and 22 and fifty-four men. ST. PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH Our pastor, Rev. Carr, has just returned from the 42nd annula meeting of the National Baptist Convention, which met in St. Louis and held its sessions on King's Highway in the very exclusive King's Theater. About 3,000 delegates attended. The first day was spent mostly in eulogizing the late president, Dr. E. C. Morris, and in hearing welcome addresses; the second day in hearing reports of boards and committees; the third day in balloting, which resulted in the election of Rev. L. K. Williams, of Chicago, as president, and Rev. W. M. Taylor, of Louisiana, as vice president at large. Many strong sermons and addresses were enjoyed. The tardiness of the plumbing, which has kept us from entering our new basebent, is nearing completion. Services tomorrow is usual. ```markdown ``` Here is a decorative bag, of printed cotton candle 25 inches long and 17 inches wide.

Veterans' Bureau is responsible for finding employment opportunities rather than specific jobs for rehabilitated trainees, is the distinction made by C. U. Hibbard, district manager, U. S. Veterans' Bureau, Minneapolis. He stated that the employers in his district have been whole-hearted in their co-operation in asking the bureau to furnish rehabilitated veterans to fill vacancies in their concerns. "The opportunities offered the Employment Service Section," Mr. Hibbard said, "are far reaching. Not only may the trainee who has completed the course prescribed be put on the way to contentment and self-respect by taking advantage of the opening presented along the lines in the training, but the opportunities may be provided for that class of disabled men for whom training is not feasible, but who are employable in certain types of work. "Even more effective than the placement of men is the follow-up on these men. For a period of four months after the men have been placed in employment, the Rehabilitation Assistants in the sub-offices will visit them with a view to determining the suitability of the selected employment and the adaptability of the theman to the job. The Government intends to stand behind the disabled man it has trained. Prospective employers are assured that every individual is trained for a position he can handle in spite of his handicap. There will be no 'square pegs' in 'round holes,' and one-armed men will not be put on two armed jobs. "The Veterans' Bureau asks the public not to consider the rehabilitated trainee as a "disabled man" from the standpoint of employment. He is a 'skilled veteran,' and as such is entitled to an opportunity to prove his worth. The emen are fast taking their places in the life of every community as good and productive citizens."
