House of Representatives passed the Gavagan Anti-lynehing bill. Opposition to. its passage, as us' ual, was furnished by membcv.from the South where practical 1\ all the lynchings occur. TwtYankee republicans spoke against the bill, but this was balanced by two Southerners, who were in fa vor of the bill and showed tie cidely more courage in so doing than the two Yankees in oppos ing ;arae, The Southerners in their opposition were about a logic tl as ever_ivhich means not at a 1. The contempt for law ami ordci, the spirit of democracy am. the ideals of a Christian civilization shown so often by their mo ronic friends' deprived them of any substantial ground to stam. on. There was therefore nothing 'eft but a resuri. to ,the emotions ?a bad guide at best.' The bill is not yet a law1; it has 10 yet be acted on and passed by the Senate. If and when it gets before the Senate, there is no oo'ubt that it will be passed by that body also. The trouble will be getting it up for a vote. ^ Theie too it is expected that the Southern senators will oppose it oki man 'Senator Borah too wilTT be against it; he is the champion n n t i in ' ontr on/I tt-UJy-.l - ""J ?*?"?

NEGRO LABOR AGAIN RESTLESS Maybe, after all, one cannot be surprised that Negro laborers are casting their eyes about for places where they can earn enough to keep three steps al^ead of actual hunger. The wages usually paid them are notning to make them satisfied -particularly rural workriTTO ? A -PnriT ? ' ? A 1_ AV>Y. jft-aia cuiuruu IH borers curtailed farming activity by migration to industrial centers of the North and West. Now again, there is likely to be some what similar conditions. The movement will not be as extensive as a few years ago but it is enough even now to cause planters to move cautiously. Many who were planning much larger farming operations are now doubtful of such a course; they are not sure of the supply of labor. While of course any man with sense enough to change a fifty cent piece desires the best he can get and ought seek it, yet colored laborers should move with caution and know that there is work to be obtained before pulling up and changing his occupation. ^There are yet thousands and tens of thousands of people yet unemployed everywhere and there is no section of the country particularly calling for their services.

After singing Umvaid Christian Soldiers, devotion was had. This *vas followed with the trying to ing. one verse of The Negro* Xa .ionul Anthem.

I have heard the attempt made quite a few times, at ditferent places but let it be at a college, high school, city school or rural school, or with any other group wise or foolish-after' they blunder over the lirsicerse it is a wandering in the "wilderness if an attempt is made o go op; so the president of the issociation, Mr. li.
