A new departure from the monthly froon ratine: card sent In by the troops was indicated in a weekly troop report blank now in riicii The plan as outlined by Executive Bemiss consists of a postal card, upon which will be checked th kind of meeting the troop held, the number of tests passed, the number of scouts present and the various actlvitius participated in during the week by the troop. This now troop report blank 1 very much simplified, and it wilt not be necessary for the scout scribe to do any of the calculating heretofore demanded by the old card. All of the calculating for the new troop report system will be done at headquarters and report rendered back to tne troops regarding their work of the past month.

REVIEW YEAR'S WORK.

In reviewing the past year In regard to the Ngro peoples, progress Is shown notwithstanding the eco- nomlo depressions First place must be given to the work of the National Association for the Advance-ment of Colored People, which has at great expense and effort convinced both the Negro voter and candidates that the vote of the Negro citlsen in the United States, Is of value, and as a citizen will struggle to maintain It. Such a program tiever-before in the history of American politics beon tried by the Negro citizens until, this year. Under the leadership of Dr. DuBois, editor of the Crisis magazine and AValter White, acting secretary of the organization, the program carried out successfully. They not only rendered a service to their own race, but to the American public, because far toe' long has the vote of the Negro' been used to increase race hatred.

TOO MANY LYNCHINGS. While there have been twice as many lynchlnga of Neeoes dnrlnr the past year than the year previous, Investigation has proven that out of the large number only three were accused of an unmentionable crime. White Women of promi nence and distinction have joined with their federated clubs and with church and civio organizations in passing, publishing, and signing their names to resolutions con- emnlng such disregard for law as the burning and lynching of human beings. Their action in this articular will hasten the dav when Southern United States congressmen and senators will realize it is In then- power and their duty to In troduce and pass a federal antl-lynching bill. These southern representatives are fast becoming to realising that designing politicians are using their position not only to create rece hatrsd.

but to keep the advancement Ue autb sows of likewise. This wa clearly demonstrated only a few days ago when Osoar DePriest, -a representative from the first district of Illinois.) asked for just two minutes to make statement on the floor ot congress in defense of the passage ot an appropriation for a pew library for Howard (Negro) University Washington, C. Several con- pressmen hai ijpoken against he" bill when PePrest appealed to i their sense of fair play and' how, the sbuth would be more benefited! by the passage of the bill than any-other section of the country, the gentleman will but stop and think for a moment they will" vote as I (ntend to do for the Press dispatches stated it passed with almost unanimous vote." FEDERAL APPOINTMENT. The Negro cltlaen and voter has made progress in federal appointments during the past year. The League of Nations requested to make anvlnvestlgatlon of the report that slavery, existed in Liberia, asked thisgovernment (U.

to a representative to serve with this committee. President Herbert Hoover recognized the great educational ability of Prof. Charles S. Johnson, a Negro teacher in the department of sociology at Flsk: University, and selected Win to rep-1 resent the United States on this, committee- As a result of the In-' vestlgatlon by this committee It' was discovered that slavery did exist in Liberia, and President-Charles King forced to resign. After this committee made Its re-.

port to the ssveral and the same was ready for publl-: cation, Presltlent Hoover appointed a Negro of pvovtrn abity. United (States minister: to Lrsetm. in the person of Chat-lea, Mltchel ot Institute Virginia. This appointment was immediately followed by the ut )lntment JetferBon S.
