SENATE BILLS :
 REPOSE CALMLY
Measures of Attorncy-General Have
 Been Indefinitely Postponed

Ten measures presented to the Territorial Legislature by the At torney-General were before the Sen. ate this morning and all were voted indefinitely postponed. One other measure, proposed by Senator Hunt, likewise went into exile, as it might be termed.
 After a hearing lasting more than two hours yesterday afternoon, dur ing which time the Attorney Gen eral defended ten proposed new laws submitted by him to the Senate dur ing the opening days of the present session, the Senate rose from the Committee of the Whole and re- ported back in regular session with out making recommendation, but placing the bills on the daily cal endar. In the Committee of the Whole, Senate Bill No. 1, intro duced by MT. Hunt, by request, was also considered.
 Objections raised to the Attorney Generals measures prior to yester- days session were brought to the attention of that officer by various members and apparently were still in existence when the Whole Com mittee concluded it's labors. It seemed yesterday to be the general belief that the bills would be in- definitely postponed and this was

 of Collapse.

A bad back makes you miserable all the time
 Lame every morning; sore all day.
 It hurts to stoop-it hurts to stratghten.
 What with headache, dizzy spcels, drinary weakness.
 No woSler people are discourag- ed,
 Who do not know the kidneys needGul help.
 Use a tested and proven kidney remedy.
 None endorsed like Deans Etdney Pills.
 Mrs. Wm. Kuhlman, 1927 Grand Ave, San Pedro, Cal, says: "I can recommend Doans Kidney Pills from experience. I know they will do what is claimed for them. My kid neys were weak and had dull back aches and felt tired and had no en- ergy. Dizzy headaches made me miserable and my kidneys acted too frequently and caused me much an- noyance. I read of Doan's Kidney Pills and used them. They helped me right away and I continurd to use them until I was cured of all signs of the trouble"
 Price COG, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills--the same that Mrs. Kuhlman had. Foster-AIilburn Co.,, Mfrs, Buffalo, N. Y.

CATHOLIC PRESS MONTH THRU-
 OUT ALASKA

Beginning an active campaign to place "A Catholic Paper in Every Catholic Home" the month of April will be Press Month throughout AL aska.
 The drive to increase the Circula- tion of the Catholic Northwest Pro- gress, official organ of the Northwest, was recently started in every town of the territory and splendid results have already been submitted.
 Bishop Crimont Praises Work
 His Lordship, Right Reverend Bishop CrimOnt, has heartily endors- ed the campaign and is making every effort toward its success. His Lord ship recently issued a pastorial let ter 10 all Catholics in Alaska, dwell ing on the importance of this move ment and requesting the assistance and support of the clergy in bring ing a Catholic newspaper to the peo- pie of the North
 Bishop Crimont laid special stress on the duty of each pastor to place before his parish for consideration the fact that never before have so many important moral and religious problems been uppermost in the minds of the American people. That the questions intimately concerned with the family, the home, the sa- credness of marriage. the relation of labor and capital, the teaching of proper ideals concerning American citizenship, the opposition to pagan ideas of state control of education, and many other all-important ques- tiOns. can only be solved by true statesmanship based upon Christian principles. and that no more power full instrument for teaching and pro- mitigation of Christian ideals can be found than the Catholic press.
 Pastors Committee Chairmen
 The local pastor of each parish in the territory is the chairman for his parish and Iayworkers will form committees to work directly under his supervision. Loyal Catholics have pledged their assistance and the drive will be carried into the far northern districts, where there are no churches and the few inhabitants have limited means of keeping in touch with the Church. It is ex- pected that by the end of the month every Catholic family in the terri tory will be a subscriber to this. pa per. Beginning April &. the returns from Alaska will be published each week in The Progress.
 Action of Officials.
 The campaign is the result of ac- ton taken by the Archbishops and Bishops of the Catholic Church, who, in annual conference assembled, Sep tember. 1920. voted unanimously in favor of a resolution calling upon the clergy and laity of the United States 10 unite in a great, organized, na- tional movement on behalf of the Catholic press.
 The organization of this move naut was Jeff tO the deDartment of Press and Publicity of the National Catholic Welfare Council, which is composed of the Hierarchy of the | Catholic Church in the United States 1 under whose leadership and inspira- tion the many and highly diversified Catholic organizations and forces of the country are being nationally uni fled.

URGING BLACKS TO
RETURN TO AFRICA
(sy the Ass0eIated Neer0 Press.l

(5y the Associated Negro Press.)
Savannah, Ga, Jan. 6.-Dr. C. F.
Checizzi, native Abyssinian priest,
who has degrees from Oxford and
Paris universities, and is Dean Of
the National and International Col
lege Of Languages and Sciences of
Pinceton university, Indiana, is MAX
ing his fourth tour of the country
urging members of his race to return
to Africa. He points out that his
own country. Abyssinia, is now an
Independent country, has never been
conquered, and is the cradle of civil
ization. If black government could
succeed in Abyssinia, why could it
not succeed all over Africa, asks
DR.. Checizzi.
DR.. Checizzi stated that there were
100000 Negroes actually fighting
in the World war, ana that $4,000
of them lost their lives. In contra
diction of reports of cowardice on
the part of black troops engaged in
the war. he points to several famous
Negroes who have won fame as mill
tary and political geniuses.
while it might be said that Ii
IBERIA and Hayti, both Negro repub-
lies, have not succeeded, and the
failure of Liberia and Hayti is due
to the lack of education" said Dr.
Checizzi, while Abyssinia has sue
ceeded, time will show that these
republics can succeed as well as
white governments. Many white gov
ernments in the Balkans and Russia
have been miserable failures. The
white man has tried to dominate
Africa, but that continent should be
solid black Only by uniting in Afri-
ca will the black races be able to
obtain recognition in the councils of
the world The departure of the
blacks from this country to Africa
would automatically settle the race
problem which has been the source of
so much discord
DR.. Checizzi besides holding de-
grees from two universities, speaks
Is languages, using English with
fluency, and is priest of the Coptic
religion. He attended the Worlds
Fair in st. Louis with the sons of
King Menelik of Abyssinia and has
lived for long time in this country,
as well as nearly every other coun-
try on the face of the globe.

LIBERTY SPECIAL
Will TAKE BLACKS
TO INAUGURATION

(5y the Associated. Negro Press.)
Chicago, JAN 6.-There is an eff
fort being made to assemble an en-
tire train of Pullman, IN Chicago to
be taken on from here as a special
to the inauguration in Washington,
March A. The movement is under the
direction of R. L. Mays and promises
to be successful. Mr.. Mays is presi-
dent of the Railway Mems Interna-
tional Industrial and Benevolent asso-
citation.
The plan as outlined is to make up
special parties in Oklahoma, Arkan-
sas, California, Minnesota and also
Denver, Omaha, Milwaukee, st. Louis,
Kansas City and other points, and
for all to meet in Chicago on a GER
tain date, probably March 2, and
the special train to go from here.
1t is planned to nave a train of
solid Pullmans, with baggage and
dining cars. Short stops are contem-
plated at Cleveland, Pittsburgh and
Harper's Ferry en- route At Harp
er's Ferry, made famous by John
Brown, there will be a visit to the
historic spot and short program.
The train when made up will be
given a name fitting for the occa-
sion, Inauguration Special" "Liber-
ty Special" or something to demon
strate both the progressiveness and
determination of Colored Americans.
This special train is set aside for
the contemplated pans for taking
the Eighth Regiment to the inaugur-
alton. Plans for the Eighth are un-
der way but have not been fully
consummated. 1t will cost several
thousand dollars to transport the
regiment, but many people feel that
the effect for good would be such
that every person should be willing
to help with the expense. Col. Otis
Duncan is in charge of the regiment.

it will be necessary to continue the

here at Arizona headquarters of the

Of the amount required, due presum.
ably to unsettled financial conditions
and the fact that the council started
its campaign at a time when several
other campaigns were in progress
These other campaigns were largely
for local charity. Herbert Hoover,
chairman of the European Relief
Council, has agreed with this senti-
ment by saying the home needs must
come first. He says, however: The
starving children of Europe are the
obligation Of every man and woman
in America who has a penny more
than his own children and his neigh
bors' children require These chill
dren are the real wastage Of war
'In extending the campaign in Ari-
zona over the new year." the state
ment continues, 1--WE are following in
structions from Herbert Hoover as
follows: 1t is announced that the ma
tional collection to date has been Sc
cured only by the greatest effort and
not more than one-third of the neces-
sary s33,0OO,O00 has been raised to
see these children through until next
harvest. 1t is the unanimous decision
that we will not stop until America
has accepted as Invisible Guests"
the whole S,5OO,OCO, and the task
would be simple if everyone who can
maintain an automobile would enter
tain at least one Invisible Guest" 80"

have been issued to the fourteen

ANONYMOUS LETTER
TELLS WHAT IS IN
NEGRO'S HEAD
(By the Associated Negro Press.)

(6y Ine associated negro FreSS.)
Savannah, Ga, Jan .6.-There is
quite little comment going on rela-
tive to an anonymous letter received
by the recorder here. The letter has
been published in the daily news
papers, and the recorder turned the
original over to the postal authori-
ties.
The letter is published exactly as
written, and while the English is
net the purest of the Queens, it very
clearly answers the question for the
Memphis Appeal, which newspaper
recently had an editorial under the
caption: Whats In the Back of
the Negroes Head?" Even the more
ignorant of the Race are thinking in
terms of what is just and what is
not. Says the~letter:
Recorder Swhatz-I am going to
see what you are going to do with
those aristocratic white, men of your
class for shooting and lynching our
race, if it had been our Colored men
that burned and murdered a white
man of your class why you yourself
hase ordered out your hole force and
bloodhounds- and by her every Col
ored man and boy in Savannah, the
right and the wrong and I suppose
had him and you in your chair a
judge you are not worthy of your
chair because you are less than a
gentleman to let white man muir
der the Colored men what would you
white people do? What could you
do without. Negro?
"You can get up nothing unless a
Negro is in it. Your family can't do
without a Negro, but still Negro
is not more than a dog in your sight
But you must remember that God is
above you and he knows and when
he do come to Judge he will be judge
over you and all the rest. He is
going to judge you mighty hard, be-
cause you had cause a man of our
Colored men and boys to sweat and
lose their freedom, and you take a
crime from white man and put it
on Colored man, and you all beat
our Colored women over the head
with blackjack as quick as you
would kill snake. But remember
you day is coming.
From yours truly"
