Five Murders In
1885 In Struggle For
Better Conditions

New York, July IL, CNA-Five
Negroes were among the % work
ers killed during the first six
months Of this year because they
took part in struggle for better
economic and social conditions,
according to figures compiled by
the international Labor Defense
and made public last week.
The five Negroes include one
who was lynched because Of his
activity in organizing s~harecrop-
pers in Alabama. The other four
Negroes were murdered during
the police terror that swept Har-
lem on March 10 and the days fol
lowing, after the Negro people
there had risen in protest against
their long suffering. Other
lynchings, of which there
have been many in 1885, are not
included in this compilation, the
LID stated, because they did not
arise directly out of economic
struggles.
The five Negroes who died in
the first six months Of 1885 in the
fight for better living conditions
were as follows:
Mar. Is Abe Young, Sladen, Miss.
Young vas an organizer among
sharecroppers. He was threat
ened by Hardie Mackie, an agent
of the landlords, who pulled a
gun. Young shot in self defense
and was lynched.

"In Beginning, God"
By E. A. Adams

(For the Literary Service Bureau)
With these words Moses begins
his history of the material uni
verse, and then explains the won
derful equilibrium and unvarying
precision of this marvellous sys-
TEN. God was In the beginning of
it; God was its author; His wis
dom contrived; His power in
itiated it; and yet sustains it.
So, all things that are worth con-
sideration had and must have God
in the beginning.
Life is full of opportunities and
of responsibilities. It's activities
and possibilities are almost with
out limit but to accomplish the
Greatest Good" God must be in
the beginning Of it. This is the
force of the admonition, ere
member thy Creator in the days
of thy youth In every move
ment for good, God in beginning
will mean much. God should be
in the conception, the planning,
and then in the execution. But,
in so many instances this is re-
vered, causing dismal failures.
The founders of this nation rec
ognized God in beginning. In the
Declaration of In d e pendence,
they recognized Him and ap-
pealed to Him; and so, in the
formation Of the Constitution.
But, as prosperity in c reased
there was the increased tendency
to end God to the rear. And sad
and deplorable. failures have re
suited. The hope of the nation
and the hope of the world lies in
the return of the slogan, "God in
beginning'-and God all Of the
way.
