Where Work is Needed.
Augusta Chronicle.

Augusta ChrOniCIe.
 We called attention a day or two since to the action of negro religious organi- zations in Mississippi and Louisiana call ing upon negro preachers and teachers to make greater efforts to impress on their race the heinous character of the crime against white women, and not only to condemn lypching.. but also sdenounce the crime which incites to it. We recommend ed this action and declared the impor- tance of similar action by negro leaders everywhere. In a report of meeting of the Afro American Press Association Rev. 1T c, Astwood, prominent negro preacher of Brooklyn, is quoted as fol-
