boldly took her turn and in a slow
but legible way endorsed her or

REPUBLICANS AGREE TO ABAN-
bon DYER BILL.
NJ ID
(By A. N. P.)

Washington. d. c., Dec. 14.-The
Over Anticipating bill is dead.
The Senate Republicans capitulat~
ed after futile effort to break down
the Democratic filibuster which had
tied up all business since Tuesday !.
Agreement to accept defeat and
discard the measure was reached at
stormy two-hour caucus. Senators
who took a lead in the attempt to
force action in the Senate demanded
that the battle should be carried on
majority, however, decided other
wise.
Lodge Admits Defeat.
Announcement of the surrender
was made by Senator Lodge, the
Republican Leader, 81 am author
ICED to notify the other side that
we will not press the bill at the
present session or in the next SEES
sion." he said.
The present session ends at IL
O'Clock Monday. The next session
begins at once and continues until
noon, March 4. With the bare mar
gin of control held by the Repub-
licans in the next Congress, there
is no hope that the Dyer bill can
be brought out again. 1t would
have to start all over and be pass
ed anew by the House.
Nominations Pile Up.
The action of the Republicans
marks a complete victory for the
Democrats. They started their fill
buster early in the week with the
open statement that the Senate
would not be allowed to transact
any business whatever, not even
confirmation OF important nomina-
tons. while the anti-lynching meas
ure was agitated.

recall that the National Association
for the Advancement OF Colored
People was instrumental in defeating
DR.. Caleb r. Layton, Delaware's
Republican representative on the
sole ground that he misrepresented
his constituents by voting against
the Dyer Anti-Lynching Biz In the
House of representatives.
The defeat of DR.. Layton, largely
through the enthusiastic and able
work of Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson,
was regarded among Colored people
as wall as among white politicians
as one Of the most convincing DEM
onstrations Of solidarity and power
ever eyinced by Colored voters in
America. Delaware became an OBJ
iect lesson to the Republican Party
showing the strong feeling among
Colored voters about the Dyer Bill.
It is presumably against this proud
achievement of Colored voters ac-
complished on the 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 close personal friend Of
Senator Pat Harrison Of Mississippi.
1t was Senator Harrison who helped
to defeat hte Liberian Bill by stat
ing that he had information" that
certain Colored men were to bene-
fit heavily financially by the pas
sage of this legislation.
In the same tenor as Mr.. Perry
w. Howard's letter was paragraph
widely circulated among the Colored
press asserting that lobbying by the
N. A. A. g. p. would hinder enact
ment of the Dyer Anti-lynching bill
because Republican leaders regarded
the Association as a "Democratice
alIy with Socialistic tendencies"

ENFORCE LAW
OR QUIT SAYS JACK.
BY W. A. Gresham.

Despite the inclement weather last
night. the First Christian church au-
ditorium and We're crowded
with an audience almost as compact
as the one which packed the church
Thursday night. Three Fingered
Jack" delivered a pure-blooded.
whole-souled American address-one
free from all wrinkles and frazzleS.
and one which struck the responsive
chord of his hearers.
He urged that a prerequisite to
office holding is to be first of all an
American citizen: and he who in
heart denounces America and ad-
here's to another land or power
should be forcibly helped in making
an opportunity to go there.
The office holder, he said. should
enforce the 18th amendment along
with the rest of the Constitution, and
if he would not he should. resign.
And If he would not resign, he should
face a recall by the citizens.
One of the features of the meet
ing last night was the somewhat hui
orc prohibition solo by DIR. II. d.
Lemert sang and accompanied on his
guitar.
Jack announced that his talk to-
night at $780, would be much
stronger than the one last night.

CHIEFLY TO
BLAME-FOR DELINQUENCY

The fact that so few parents know
where their children are. who they
are with and what they are doing is a
factor that is helping to increase
Juvenile delinquency according to a
statement last night of Judge Jacob
kanzler who made the principal ad-
dress before the parent-teacher coun-
Gil Of Pendleton.
In 80 per cen of the cases Of de-
linquency the parents are to blame, in
the judgment of the Portland jurist.
Truancy from school is one of the fac
tors which start children on the down.
ward path, he said. Parents should
not try to saddle all of their respon-
sibility off on to the schools, he stated.
Judge Phelps introduced the speak
cd. Talks were also made by Mayor
G. A. Hartman, Supt. HI f. Inflow, and
musical numbers were a solo by Miss
Lillian Culley and a number by the
MeElroy trio.

Secretary Speaks.
Organization was the theme for
F. r. Marshall's address. Mr.. Mar
shall, who is secretary of the Natl
onal Wool Growers Association, said:
my idea of organization is start
ing from the bottom up and not from
the top down. Organization first in
the counties and in. the state. We
have got to get it more down to, a
business basis. The prices of such
products as furniture, steel, ETC., did
not come down after the war. Why?
Because the manufacturers were
highly organized. They did not have
Ito force their products on the mar
ket as we had to do with wool. Our
lchief trouble is NJ system in dis
posing of that product. My idea is
larger, closer, and more effective or
ganization. DO the things you see
Zone step at a time and let the thing
lgrow. If we do not apply this fad
as some choose to call it, for bust
mess organization we will be either
standing still or going back. Apply
the principle and make it work III
