NEGRO POPULATION AND THE
DEATH RATE.

The increase OF Negro population in
the United States in the past tea
years, given by the census authorities
as 6.5 per cent is the smallest yet
known. The figures have attracted
wide attention, especially in the
South, where both this small increase
and the migration OF the last few
years emphasize the abnormally high
death rat among Negroes and the
need for more generous provision for
their health and general welfare.
Some state boards of health, like
those Virginia and North Carolina
have for years been building up a
humane and statesmanlike policy in
this respect; and public sentiment
throughout the South Is growing rap
idly in regard to the need and obliga
tion for such work. The Columbia. S.
c., State in recent editorial urges
1T upon the attention and the consci
ence of "every Southern governor,
legislature, college and progressive as.
sociatton," and individual Of
"eyery good man and woman" Many
other papers take the same attitude:
and some add frankly that heath and
prosperity will never be secure for
any part Of the South until they are
secure for all.

"A VOTE AGAINST THE DYER BILL
is "A VOTE FOR LYNCHING.

The National Association for the Ad
Avenue, New York today announced
the above as it's slogan in the fight
to have the Dyer-antiLynching bill
enacted into law by the United States
Congress.
A statement issued from the Asso-
citation today and signed by James
Weldon Johnson, calls upon colorcd
people throughout tho country to
watch their representatives and sena-
tors. Mr.. Johnson's statement reads
as follows:
"The Department. Of Justice has
gone on record in an opinion delivered
by Judge Golf saying that the Dyer
anti-Lynching bill was constitutional.
There is no longer any excuse why
any representative OF the American
people should oppose a measure de-
signed to end such a monstrous evil
as mob murder.
Every vote against the Dyer bill in
the House Of Representatives or in
the Senate is vote for lynching.
Every representative and every sen
ator who dares to oppose this bill
ought to be listed by colored voters
throughout the United States and
placed on record.
The states have shown they cannot
Or will not stop lynching. The feder-
az government should now act. The
Dyer bin gives the government the.
necessary authorization to act. 1t is
up to every colored man and woman
in the United States to see to it that
the Dyer bill is passed and that the
name Of every man in Congress VINO
opposes that bill is put on record.
"A constant fire Of kilograms and
letters should be directed at your
Congressman so that they know with
out any shadow of doubt that their
constituents want the bill passed"
