(By Associated Negro Press)

WASHINGTON. D. c., Dec. 81
Last week Washington was filled
with distinguished visitors who were
here to make careful plans in the
interest of the good old party of
Lincoln and Roosevelt, which un.
doubtedly will again take over the
reins of the nation in 1920 and, as
Bert Williams would say, bring
back the good old days of yore "
The Willard was packed from cellar
to garret with all varieties and spe-
cies of the grand old party-big bugs
and little bugs all together-last
week in the nations capital, and all
were equally jubilant concerning the
prospects of a successful campaign,
and subsequent republican vic
tory.
On Thursday evening of last week
the Eagle Crusader rendered a BAN
Quet to the visiting Colored states
men and politicians. Among those
who attended were: John We'll, Mis-
souri,; Col Judson Lyons, Georgia;
Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, Geor-
gia; o. McKain, New York; DR..
Watson, Georgia; Dr. Sherriod, Mis-
sissippi; Gilchrist Stewart New

Love, Col. Charles Young, ]. A.

TO WORK JANUARY )

CHICAGO, Dec. 31.-That the Re.
publican party intends to leave no
stone unturned by which the people
may be acquainted with the plans of
the presidential campaign of 1920 is
evident from the announcement that
Chairman Win H. Hays expects to
set the work in motion actively at a
conference here on January 8, and
z. Practically all of the members Of
the national committee are to meet
here in consultation with William
Hert as president of the committee
on arrangements for the national
convention. The women's division
of the party organization is to meet
in formal session. One of the chic!
features will be the formal session
of the men and women who are to
meet and formulate a draft of plat
form which will be submitted to the
committee on resolutions next June.
There is unusual activity manifested
throughout the country by the Col
ored voters. Never before in the
history of the party have they mani
tested such great concern with ref
erence to the platform and to the
Republican nominee. Hundreds o.
men throughout the country. busi-
ness men and professional men, are
taking an active interest in political

fered by the congregation of the
Bridge Street African NJ. E. church
for the arrest of the person who as
saulted its pastor, the Rev. w. Spen.
Ger Carpenter. Some time ago the

Caucasian Speaks Out
In Defense of $1,000, 900
Colored American Citizens
(By Associated Negro Press)

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 81
William Anthiusue (white), in a
statement to The Associated Negro
Press, has some very pertinent
things to say on race adjustment" !"
and he has very wisely arranged for
the people of his group to learn his
opinions. He says:
What Colored people want is 20
have the same chance to live happy,
healthful, useful, successful lives rs
white people. They wish not to be
Disseminated against in the matter
of obtaining employment; desire the
same wages for the same work:
the same school facilities for thei.
children; the same opportunity for
the young people to acquire trades,
and education in the professions;
wholesome housing conditions; hos
pital facilities, in fact, they want
no discrimination whatever, because
of difference of color. They believe
mans a man no matter what his
color, and he should be treated as
such.
''If the twelve million Negroes in
America are to give brain-labor,
hand-labor and heart-labor to this
civilization of ours, they must be
given the tools OF achievement and
share the reward Of co-workers. They
ask nothing of US which is not fair
and Just, and they should he treated
fairly and justly by their white fell
low citizens. Why not?
TOO many OF US, in Judging the
Negro, fix the eye inexorably upon
some atrocious or unjustifnable act
OF single individual. Is this the
way to judge a race? The tribunal
of history does not condemn Chris
tianity because some Of its adherents
were criminals, nor the Puritans be-
cause some Of them burned witches.
Democracy can only be preserved
by citizens as jealous of the rights
Of others as OF their own. There
cannot exist two codes of law in a
republic. one for high and one for
low.
"a mistaken notion exists in the
minds OF many of our people that
Negroes want social equality with
the whites. They do not. They are
satisfied with their own society; with
Colored young men marrying Col
ored girls; with the eompanionship
Of their own race in their own
homes; with the building up OF their
social institutions; they are as SEN
sitive in the presence Of inappro.
pirate situations as white people are,
and are Just as adverse to forcing
themselves upon people who do not
desire their presence"

REFUGEES HERDED
ON SHIPS SUFFER
Many Go Insane In Their Suffering -
Famished and Without Water
Terrible Filth.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. D. (Associ-
ated Press:)EThe condition of the refu-
gees aboard the 90 or more ships strung
along the Bosporus is appalling and a
terrible catastrophe is feared unless the
promptest measures are taken to land
the thousands who are writing IN misery
and in pain.
The correspondent visited several of
the floating hospitals and madhouses
and returned to shore with forebod-
ings of impending calamity. None of the
refugees have as yet been taken ashore,
excepting the sick, diseased and insane.
The insane have been extremely num-
eTous.
AS the correspondent rode across the
Bosporus an unpleasant smell from the
ships was waited to him despite a strong,
cold sea breeze. An American relief Of
pair boarded the ships the clothing Of
both was virtually torn off by the half
maddened refugees begging to be taken
to land on the open hills which border
the Bosporus.
Men, women and children, regardless
of age or sex, are herded together pro
miscuously on the ships day and night,
in a state of appalling filth and misery.
Many women of refinement, despite their
bedraggled appearance, offered to barter
their valuables, jewels and turs tor a
crust of bread or a glass OF water. In
SOllle casts Tie ltlu2tCS boNC DNNA "ANA
out water for ii days. ,
The correspondent heard that there had
been numerous suicides of desperate retu-
gees going insane during the night hours;
They spoke of ghostly temptation and
the sobbing call of the sea at night when
they were dying from thirst. Many OF
the refugees were restrained from Jump
ing overheard. while many succeeded.
The American navy IS assisting IN
transporting sick women to hospitals, and
the Near East Relief also has been prom.
inent in the work. War-hardened reliet
nurses were moved to tears by maddened
mothers offering their children to visit
ors. and the scenes of separation have
been beyond description. The death rate
has been abnormal as the result OF the
biting cold and the lack of food. The
American Red Cross is offering 3o,Oo0 rai-
lions daily and several Americans are OF
fering donations and subscriptions.
The French government, which is IN
full charge of the relief work, Is lnGap-
able of dealing with the situation and IS
appealing to the Near East relief, whose
funds are limited. The fear was eX-
pressed by the ships officers that cases
of c~annibalism would occur unless 1000
supplies are received. promptly; In many
cases they had to fight off maddened men
from Staying children. they declared.
The American hospital in Stamboul IS
crowded to suffocation and the Amer
can Red Cross is giving all its available
medical supplies.

come from Switzerland by the thousands;
alarm clocks, large and square, that play
music; large and medium sized butcher
knives that curve at the end; strong linen
Irvine for gill nets; plenty of American
silver dollars; are among the best articles
with which to barter.
Il would emphatically caution against
the use Of 'POnzi' methods on any of
the natives as they have a clear and
lasting memory. The trader should make
a good margin on his stock in trade, but
he should give full value for his product.
If this is done, the native will hold his
furs. ivory, bristles, etc, for the trader
when he visits him again.
To attempt to negotiate a trade i'm
mcdiately upon entering the home of a
native is to lose out. The visiting trader
should proceed more or less l~eisurely par
taking Of tea that is offered, and com
m~enting on the nice cool climate. An
other important point involves the mat
ter of economy. Traders should not try
to trade too economically. particularly
among japanese settlers. Traders should
also leave presents after a trade is con-
summated for the trapper and each mem
Der of his flock, otherwise they are likely
to rename him kechimbO San, which IN
plain English means Mr.. Tightwad,' in
which event the traders days of profit
able bartering are of very short dura-
ton"
