That is one side Of the truth.
The other side is this. God is not

whom God lives. we may fairly say
that God is with some In higher

of the names by which Jesus Is
called. for the Christian church has
always read Isaiah TIA as a proph-

means God with u.s. and is the an.

heart.
God in heaven far away, God the
Creator who Set in motion this

Nineteen Hundred Forty-Nine
"The hopes and fears Of al the
years are met in thee tonight"
These are the words with which
Phillips Brooks wrote of that
Little Town of Bethlehem" where
was born, in far-off Judea, nearly
1000 years ago. the Child whose
birth gave US our Christmas. And
still today the hopes and fears of
all the years meet in Him as they
did that night in the lowly manger
where He lay.
Christmas comes, we say. but
once a year. But He is ever com
ing-coming to the hearts of men
with the divinest message human
ity has ever heard.
No wonder Christmas Day is the
Day of Days. Whatever 1t may
bring us this year of joy or sorrow.
it is our assurance that Peace
on Earth and Good Win Toward
Men" is still life's final goal.
To every reader of these words
we send our Christmas and New
Year greetings.

A. Lou Cohen ia Race
For Legislature

Announcing his candidacy for
the Democratic nomination for the
Legislature from the seth District.
A. Lou Cohen said he advocates
two amendments to the state Con-
stltution.
One proposed amendment would
change the election procedure to
prescribe 12-year terms for Super
Tor Court judges and six-year
terms for justices of the peace.
The present terms are four years.
Cohen's second amendment
would require the payment of
pensions of from $50 to $50
monthly to all persons So years
or older who had been residents
of the state ten years or more.
They would receive the pensions
without the qualification of need.
Cohen said it would remove the
pension system from political con-
sideration.
Cohen, now retired, is the oldest
living member of the American
Federation of Labor and served
Seattle for many years as a city
councilman.

Again our land heaves and
echoes in loudest praise in recog-
milton Of the greatest day Of days.
If this day had not ushered the
Christ Child In, there would be
no relief from fear and the pangs
of sin.
Our earth would be a far more
dismal place II the face of the
Christ Child had not come to
brighten and to point weary souls
to throne of Grace.
II is the hope that we now have
in His matchless peace and power.
that gives Christians enduring
strength for every passing hour.
Even those who have not yet
formed a personal acquaintance
with Him. are recipients of His
bounties. though still revealing in
sin.
His love so matchless. His COM
passion beyond human understand
ing, that every creature should
bear warning of the terrible pen
atty for mishandling.
Christmas comes as a reminder
that life perfectly holy and true
came all the way from heaven to
live and die for you.
He came to teach us how 70
live, to watch and to pray. and
from our lives and through His
blood. wash all our sins away.
Christmas stimulates the men,
DRY that Christ's sinless life here
on earth was spent that the sins
of men everywhere might be for
given If only they repent.
And now. because He came to
earth, not boasting of earthly roy
atty. the high and the lowly bow
to Him in recognition of His holy
authority.
He even evaded the priestly
robes and royal diadems; but de-
spite the lowly manger. they
brought Him gifts and priceless
gems.
Thus, out of sacred memory for
the life we can never forget. I'VE
hail again this PRINCE of PEACE
whose light is burning yet.

In general and Herbert Hoover in
particular for all the ills of the
Negro race. Mr.. Hooks closed his
letter by saying that the Republic
can Party is as dead as Abraham
Lincoln and he hopes it will con-
tinue to rot in its grave.
While we admit that some opin-
ions expressed in the letter are
controversial, they nevertheless
show that gentleman Is quite be-
low par in his knowledge of politi-
cal history; the closing statement
simply portrays bad taste and that
to the point of stupidity.
We do not know whether Mr..
Hooks is a Negro or merely a Ne
gro sympathizer. And we are sure
that he is not alone in his appraisal
of the merit of our two major pol
itical parties. But let's take look
at the record.
The Democratic Party has held
the destiny of millions of Amer
leans in the hollow of its hand far
beyond the memory of any living
person. The Republican Party was
born within the memory of the
present generation. It was born
when the extension of slavery was
the burning issue of the day. The
Democratic Party became the per-
feet instrument of the Shareholders
The Wings attempted to evade the
issue and vanished from the scene.
1t was then that the Republican
Party was born; born and organ
lied in the struggle against the
extension of slavery, against the
Kansas-Nebraska bill, and dedi-
| Gated to the slogan: mo new foot
of slave SOIL" The party sprang
up simultaneously in hundreds of
farm communities, towns and cities
and, limiting it's anti-slavery de-
mand to a free West, united on
a common platform all who OPP
posed the further encroachment of
slavery. 1t elected a President, won
the Civil War, and was instru-
mental in freeing the slaves. That,
in our opinion, is one fact that no
Negro should ever forget or fail
to appreciate.
Much has been said about the
Republican Party not having done
all 1t could have for the Negro. We
agree it has not, but with plenty
of extenuating circumstances. In
the first place it was organized
with an almost single purpose of
stopping the extension of slavery.
1t offered its first candidate for
the presidency in 1856 and was
defeated. In 1860 it elected a
president on the same platform

and then proceeded to direct and
win the Civil War. Then it found
on it's hands the most unprece-
dented problem ever to face the
nation. There was no previous ex-
perienee to use as a yard stick
There It was looking them straight
In the eye: what to do with four
millions of human beings, turned
adrift homeless, penniless and
without the semblance of an edu-
cation7
Many suggestions were offered
Colonization was one; forty acres
and a mule was another; and
others too numerous to mention.
Colonization would not do because
of no place to colonies Forty
acres and mule for each ex-slave
would not do because, when the
accounting was had, there was
about enough land for one acre
instead of forty and no mule. In
This unprecedented situation 1t
did the thing that time has proven
to be right. 1t first put troops in
the South to protect the Negro and
created the Freedman's Bureau,
thus starting the teaching of Ne
groes in education. medicine, law,
and skilled labor, to the end that
the Negro made progress long be-
fore the late FD.R., whose memory
this writer highly respects, was
even born. The Republican Party
continued to do the best 1t could
for Negroes until 1875. That was
the time that the South came back
into complete control Of Negroes
in the South. They had all along
planned to re-enslave the Negro
somehow. They did 1t by winning
the support of Northern industrial.
lists, bankers, shippers, and others
of like stripe, whose consciences
were stuffed with cotton. They
were so eager to reestablish trade
relations with the South that the
Negro was sacrificed on the altar
of expediency.
We have neither the time mol
space to fully answer Mr.. Hooks
but we will be back next weel
to tell our readers something
about the record of the Democrats

Jackson st. Lights

In an effort to secure action on
the long pending installation of
traffic lights on Jackson Street at
Maynard and Sixth Avenues, the
jackson Street Community Coun-
Gil has placed petitions in hotels
and business houses on Jackson
Street for the signatures of those
people who are anxious to see these
lights installed as soon as possible.
Studies have been made by both
the Community Council and the
Traffic Engineering Department
and there appears to be agreement
regarding the need for these sig
nails. The purpose Of the petitions
is to focus the attention of city
officials on the attitude of the
people of this area regarding the
lights in the hope that actual in
stallation will be forthcoming in
the near future.
Petitions may be signed at
the International Branch Of the
Seattle First National Bank, N.
p. Hotel, jackson Street Coun-
Gil Office, Rainier Heat and
Power Company, Over the Top
Beverage, Chicks Ice Creamery,
and other business establish
ments on jackson.
Copies of the petition will be
called in at the end of this week
to be prepared for submissio1 to
the City Council and officials of
the City Engineering Department.
Anyone wishing to sign the petit
ton should do so before Friday.
