Egyptians in Sudan
Join N. A. A. C.. P.

Egyptians in the Sudan have become
for the Advancement of Colored Peo-
pie, 20 Fifth avenue, New York, ac-
cording to announcement today at the
national office. News of the fight over
the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill in the
United States has spread to Egypt and
the letter from the Sudan enclosing
graduation on the passage by the
House of Representatives of the meas
ure.
The letter from Egypt says in part:
"You know it is quite easy to rob
man if he is blind whether physically
or intellectually. 1t is an outstanding
fact that the rulers of Africa, without
exception, deny my racet his privilege
of self seeing, because they feel that
some day these people whom God has
created free will arise and demand the
exit of their oppressors. So they say
If not in word in deed keep the Mig
ger blind; and Wen see to it that no
one opens his eyes; not even the Car
penter of Nazareth if He was on earth.
"That's the nOXious atmosphere we
are inhaling daily, you can judge the
present state of our health. We look
to you as never before; praying that
you will remember as you struggle on
for the welfare of the race. Convey,
please, our warm congratulations to
the wary and indefatigable secretary,
j. w. j. (James Weldon Johnson) for
his recent achievement Oyer Anti

Bar Association to
Hear Advancement
Associations Secre-
tary on Anti-Lynch
Bill and Ku Klux.

James Weldon Johnson, secretary of
the National Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People, has been
invited 10 appear before the law en-
foi cement committee of the American
Bar Association, holding hearings in
Chicago on April 10, on the subject of
the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and the
Ku KluX Klan, it was announced today
mt Advancement Association headquar-
Jers.
Mr.. Johnson will urge to the Bar As
sociation's committee TO report favor
ably on the Dyer bill in dealing with
the spread of lawlessness in the
United States, and also will ask for
condemnation of the activities of the
Ku KluX Klan.
The chairman of the Bar Associa-
tion's committee is w. B. Swaney of
Chattanooga, Tenn, the other members
being Ex-Governor Whitman of New
York, Wade II. Ellis of Washington,
Charles w. Farnham of st. Paul and
Judge Marcus Kava.naugh of Chicago.
Before leaving for Chicago, Mr..
johnson said ::
"The opportunity to appear before
the Bar Association is of the highest
Importance. That body's interest in
the Dyer bill is especially opportune
because the question of its constitu-
tionality is the final obstacle to be
it and it becomes the law of the land"

LYNCH|NG CONDEMNED BY TEXAS
WOMEN
COMMITTEE ORGANIZED TO
PROMOTE CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES
In RACE RELATIONS

call attention to some of the underly-
ing causes of present day ills:
PREJUDICE.
Recognizing the universal exist
ence of prejudice among people of diff
ferent races, and deploring its exist
ence and its consequent unjust results,
we therefore are resolved that the Ne
gro should have hearing in his own
behalf, and further resolve that we
shall not be content simply with being
kindly disposed to the race, but that
our good will shall reach to the effort
to secure for its members justice in
all things and opportunities for living
the best life. We desire for the Negro,
as for all men, personal and racial JUS
tice in private life and in the courts
of the land.
WOMANHOOD.
"Realizing the great increase of mu-
lattoes and knowing full well that no
race can rise above its womanhood, we
appeal for the protection of the chas-
tity of the Negro woman and declare
ourselves for the single standard of
morality among this race as well. as
among our own.
CHILDHOOD.
Recognizing the right of every
American child to be not only well
born, but to be given the opportunity
for developing his life to its fullest
possibility, we desire for the Negro
child better homes, better schools and
better Christian training.
LYNCHING.
"Lynching is the black spot on Amer
ica's soul So long as America holds
the record for its Illegal taking of life,
so long as the headlines of foreign pa
burns another Negro, just so long will
her shame be worldwide. We have no
security unless the law protects us.
Mob violence knows no law. As wom-
en-, as mothers of men, we protest We
condemn every violation of law in the
taking of life, no matter what the
crime.
| I'VE declare ourselves for law and
order at an costs. The public has n
right to prompt and certain justice and
should demand such of officials and
courts. We believe that America
should not permit ignorance and pre-
judice to be capitalized. In common
with the great and honored Henry w.
Grady, of our own Southland, we say,
Not in passion, my countrymen, but
in reason, not in narrowness but in
breadth, may we solve this problem in
calmness and in truth, and lifting its
shadows, let perpetual sunshine pour
down on two races walking together in
peace and cOntentment.

N. A. A. C.. P. Gets In
dOrsement of Dyer
Bill From Michigan
Senator.

Following the entrance of the Ma
tional Association for the Advancement
of Colored People into Michigan's SEN
atorial contest, opposing Representa-
tive Patrick Fl. Kelley, who had voted
against the Dyer bill, it was an
announced today that Senator Towns
end, his opponent, had explicitly come
out in favor of the Dyer bill and had
promised to give it his support in the
Senate if elected.
Senator Townsend announced his
stand in letter to Oscar w. Baker.
who has been chosen as chairman of
the colored division in Michigan. TO
support Senator Townsend's candidacy.
The letter is as follows:
Mr.. Oscar w. Baker,
Shearer Bros. Bldg.
Bay City, Michigan.
Dear Mr.. Baker:
l have your courteous favor of
March 30 this mail stating that YOU
had selected as chairman of the col
'ored division in Michigan for the pur-
pose of favoring my candidacy for re-
nomination to the Senate, and you call
my ATTENTION 10 tne Dyer Antl-Lynch-
ing Bill
l cannot imagine that any intelligent
civilized being could even Indirectly
favor lynching. 1t is exaggerated mur-
der, and one of the worst enemies of
law and order known TO civilization.
The growing practice of lynching calls
for every effort of organized society to
check it. There is work for the coun-
tries, states and nation in this behalf,
and any practical constitutional meth
cd which is brought before the Senate
having for its object the suppression
of lynching will have my support. The
Dyer Anti-Lynching bill is, in my judg-
ment, constitutional, and l shall glad
ly avail myself of the opportunity to
do everything l can to bring 1t before
the Senate for consideration and to Sc
cure vote upon it.
Respectfully yours,
CHARLES E. TOWNSEND.
