P., in a statement to the house rules committee, asks the bill under consideration, said: "If Section 5 is enacted, it will be possible to construe and interpret it such a manner as to bar Colored persons from voting in that part of the section which says: "That every book, magazine, newspaper—wherein or whereby an appeal is made to racial prejudice, the intended, to cause rioting or the resort to force and violence within the United States, or any place subject to the jurisdiction of the law is hereby declared to be complaint."
Aimed at Press
"The Colored press is opposed to appeals to racial prejudice." Johnson exclaimed, "and one of the chief reasons for the existence of the Colored press is to fight appeals to racial prejudice, but if this scion becomes a law, the Colored people will right to voice the just and legitimate protests of the Colored people against wrongs on the ground that such protests appeal to racial prejudice."

"We do not want equal opportunity, we want the same opportunity; we do not want equal accommodations, we want the same accommodations; we do not want the same rights as every American citizen"—with these stirring remarks Dr. George Cleveland Hall of Chicago, who is the surgeon at a great hospital, and a great city worker in that city, aroused the large audience of white and Race people who were present at the fourth annual public meeting of the Chicago Negro and the Community", and gave from the Chicago riots. He made the point that we, as a Race, may be given what is termed by the white man equal rights; we want what we want; we want the same rights; for can have what is classed as equal rights yet they are not the same rights.
Riot Neglect of Law
In touching on the race conflict in the Windy City, Dr. Hall stated it was the result of the neglect of law and order, and the fact that the white ammendments in general Race labo made no attempt to give him the rights to tensions, and classed all types alike—through this medium the Race citizens were at high tension and the conflict started. The churches of Chicago did a hop the race riots than all other forces.
Dr. Hall also spoke at length on the service and sacrifices of the Race, and his appeal for a square deal for the "Colored American." Another speaker was Mr. Jackson, educational secretary at Harvard, who talked on the spirit of the Urban League movement and demonstrated the importance of one group of the other, and by improving the conditions of the Race and thereby improving conditions for all. He brought a happy solution of the problem. He painted a beautiful word picture of the Race eventually coming into its form as a Race but as American citizens.
Secretary Elzy Makes Report
Robert J. Elzy, the executive secretary of the league, rendered his annual report, which showed that a great improvement had been made in the league's housing situation. Other work done by the league was the health propaganda, child welfare, employing the league, and enclosing year called for greater activities along all lines. Rev. L. Mason Clarke (white), pastor of the church, was the league's program, which included selections by Miss Andreas Lindsay and Madam Marie Peeck Johnson. The large gathering contributed liberally towards the league's out memberships. The budget for the previous year was over $3,000; this year it will be over $7,000. Mr. Elzy was an office in some section of the city.

Alderman Seek Social Center
Our two aldermen, Geo. W. Harris and Dr. Chas. Roberts, are united on a plan to seek for this community a social center. Cognizance of their plans was taken last week by the white officers of the 23, stating it in detail. Harris and Roberts are both working toward the granting of an armory, to be built in Harlem, for the new Fifteenth Regiment of an armory would be a memorial to the glories of the old 15th. In addition, they propose the establishment of a civic center for our large population, as more than 150,000. Great things are being made of aldermen, both of whom have the ability to make good in city hall.
At the Height of Progress
The New York Globe recently published an article under the caption of "Progress," by J. A. Jaxon, which shows the great economic advance made by the United States in the article, an exceptionally fine one, mentions many specific instances in which our people have made wonderful advances, including, the writer says, "So after all, there has been more real, solid, sane progress than radical ideas, or disasters of America."

Scrutiny of the raised $5 bills shows also that beneath the photograph the word "dollars" is spelled with only one "L." due to the word "twenty" could not otherwise be put in the place of the word "live."

EVERYBODY
appreciates a good complexion and ninety out of a hundred can have a good complexion if the health of the body and skin are given proper care. The skin, being subject to the elements, wind, rain, and snow, requires careful attention to preserve its natural texture and delicate coloring.
The first essential in the care of the skin is proper cleansing. The skin must be kept free from impurities, as the glow of health will not shine through a neglected skin.
As an aid to the proper care of the complexion we have added to our line five preparations of unsurpassable merit. These preparations are compounded by expert chemists from high test material, cost not being considered, and are entirely free from anything that would injure the most delicate skin.
MADAM C. J. WALKER'S COLD CREAM is composed of the best materials found in face creams and will retain its freshness and fragrance indefinitely. The continued use will keep the skin in a healthy condition and is very effective for toning and firming the skin, imparting smoothness and brilliancy to the complexion.
(State) MADAM C. J. W
VANISHING CRE
MADAM C. J. WALKER'S VANISHING CREAM is free from the objectionable features of oil or grease and will not promote the growth of down on the face and is a valuable aid to those who have difficulty in retaining powder on the face.
MADAM C. J. WALKER'S CLEANSING CREAM
is an article all women should use. Apply a small amount on the tips of fingers, rubbing in well, using circular motion. The movements should be in an upward direction and away from the center of the face. Do not neglect under the chin, where women show their age so quickly. Do not rub too hard. Wipe off with soft cloth. The treatment, if carefully followed, is excellent for restoring and preserving a youthful complexion, removing blackheads, pimples, and enlarged pores.

MADAM C. J. WALKER'S WITCH HAZEL JELLY is a simple scientific compound of refined Witch Hazel, Glycerine and other supplementary compounds recognized as beneficial antiseptics and emollients—these and nothing else. It is colorless and does not of itself produce a tint. Odor is delicate, almost imperceptible. It comes in a jelly form that has never been successfully imitated. There is no waste and a little of it suffices—hence it is economical as well as otherwise desirable.
It should be used by all women as a reliable producer of clear, velvety skin.
The very simplicity of this preparation is the secret of its effectiveness. It searches the pores and softens the skin.
Nothing else is so soothing or prompt in healing chapped hands or roughened and irritated skin. It gives almost instant relief from windburn and sunburn.
As a complexion beautifier you will find MADAM C. J. WALKER'S WITCH HAZEL JELLY more effective than all the costly cosmetics you ever used.
FOR BABY, whose tender skin chafes so easily, you will find this simple preparation ideal. It is not only effective, but it is SAFE, and it is not expensive.
FOR MEN AFTER SHAVING this preparation readily wins favor. It contains the very thing that every man desires for the purpose, but being in jelly form, is far more cleanly and convenient.
MME. C. J. WALKER'S WITCH HAZEL JELLY is so inexpensive that it can be freely used by all members of the family—and they all find many uses for it.
MADAM C. J. WALKER'S SUPERFINE FACE POWDER
This is indeed an article of merit. Women of refinement everywhere will pronounce this the Powder Par Excellence. The use of improper face powder is very detrimental to the skin. Madam C. J. Walker's SUPERFINE FACE POWDER is a real benefit and, if used in connection with Madam C. J. Walker's CREAMS OR WITCH HAZEL JELLY will prove a wonderful complexion beautifier. Put up in 3 shades-White, Rose, Flesh and Brown.

Eugent Walter's great play, "The Wolf," is the week's offering at the Avenue theater. It is a gripping melodrama, and the story really begins some years before the curtain closes on the first act, starting at a time when a half sister of the hero, Jules Peauhien, has been led astray by an American advenience. The man has disappeared with the woman and all traces of them have been lost. The disgrace brought upon Jules's father weighs upon him, and he receives a promise from Jules that he will find his sister and
story really begins some years before the curtain rises on the first act, starting at a time of the hero, Jules Penulien, has been led astray by an American adventurer. The man has disappeared and all traces of them have been lost. The disgrace brought upon Jules' father weighs upon him, the promise from Jules that he will find his sister and
care for her. He Conv Lanston sets forth in the first act, and finds him on the home of Andrew McTavish, on the home of Andrew McTavish, on the home already of Vind river. The brother has already been willingly found death in a wrestoman and now, accompanied by Baptiste LeGrand, a nomad of the Northwest, he is searching for the adventurer that has brought woe upon him and his kin. At the MacTavish home the wanderers william MacDonald and his assistant, George the construction of a rifle. The former has been making love to MacTavish's daughter, Hilda, born of a Swedish mother, but hated by her father because she has been born a girl. Although a married man, he declares that he will win the girl, and, because he has the father, is about to carry out his task, he is interrupted by Jules, who is himself in love with the girl, but has never mentioned the fact. During his boasting MacDonald lets slip the fact that it was he who wronged Annette, and from that moment his fate is sealed. In the light which follows Huntley takes sides with MacDonald, the trio escape along the Little Ben. When they are safely out of danger Jules leaves the others to go on while he returns to the MacTavish home to kill MacDonald and average his sister. Before he can start, however, MacDonald appears to regain Hilda, and a fight occurs in the dark, and is the stranger some of the play, with the ominous howling of the wolves in the distance.
Arthur Simmons as Jules Beaubien, the young French Canadian, has a splendid chance and takes full advantage of what could not be improved upon, and from there he sustains the characterization in a way that holds strict attention. George Allen, seen for the first time in a local muncip, makes a good impression as the young Frenchman Edward Thompson, as capable a young actor as could be found in a lot of

traveling, has the light comedy 'part of Huntley, and delivers it perfectly, Charles Olden as MacTavish, the father of Hilda, does a fine bit of character work. His hatred for the girl, who is innocent of any wrongdoing, is brutal in the extreme, and Olden qualifies for the Prize. The daughter, is well cast and has the symbites of the audience from the beginning, and her happiness at the end is shared by those who follow the interesting story. Clarence E. Muse as the villain, MacDonald, also does some splendid work. The part is a concoction that unintently well deserved 'finish' refers to the large Monday night audience. It is a play that should be seen by all lovers of the melodramatic.
THE GRAND
"Tunes and Funnies of 1920" is the name of a fine musical comedy offering at the Grand this week. The Miller & Lyles company is thoroughly qualified for an entertainment of this sort and the setting is one of great moment at any time from curtain to finale. As might be deduced from the title, a melange of singing, comedy and dancing is presented, and all the biggest hits and best numbers of the past few years are done, along with the very latest in some of the best of minute. The comedy is being well taken care of by Miller & Lyles themselves, and they are aided and abetted by Andrew Tribble, always a great favorite with Chicago audiences. In addition to the comedy, as Leon Diggs, Df Enfiction, Lom Ross, A. J. Twiggs, Edna Hicks, Rose Gordon, Bessie Tribble, Julia Rector, Trixie Butler, Ethel Patton, Mary Carpenter, Cordelle Richardson, Alma Jones, Essential and others. The stage settings are well suited for the occasion and the show is fast and seepery. Don't fall to see it.
THE MONOGRAM
An extraordinarily strong bill is on here this week. Gant & Perkins, considered by many as being the best stager act in all vaudeville, are presenting their new offering, "The Nurse Maids," and it is going over in great style. Peat Stuart, who plays the act as an act, are hitting them hard with their Chinese and Smoke offering, and the new act of Jerome & Williams is coming in for a world of favorable comment. The singing of Jerome and the banjo playing of Williams are features, although the dialogue is original. This act should be heard funny in the near future. The big novelty for the week is The Only Jalvan, who has an Oriental offering that covers a wide variety of work, juggling, top spin-
"PRINCE AND BETTY"
Walter Perry, that stoning character actor, without, whom he jokes D. Hampton production is entirely complete, is one of the important members of the supporting cast of William Desmond's newest picture, "The Prince and the Queen." In this picturization of Polham Granville Wodehouse's widely read novel Walter Perry portrays the role of the president of the small republic of Mervo. The president has an itching palm and finds palm in the good American cane who never missed a chance, however wild and daring it might be, to make money. The schemer's present plan is to turn the eyes of the world in Mervo's direction by staging a revolution and one back of the Prince royal. And who can believe that the Prince will be William Desmond, a penniless American who aspires to the hand of a beautiful helress. Mary Thurman is "Petty," the Prince and Betty. It is announced, will be shown Sunday at the State Museum. It's a Jesse D. Hampton production distributed by Pathc.
ning and other things far out of the
world is an interesting and well
balanced one.
the Milcheau of the Milcheau productions, "Within Our Gates," will be seen for a four-day run beginning on Monday, Feb. 2, at Dooley's The Atlas theater, 4711 Stale Street. This is the picture that it required two solid months to get by the Cannon Bard, and it is the claim of the author and producer that, while it is a hit radical, it is within the biggest protest against race prejudice, lynching and "concubmage" that was ever written or flamed and gripping, holding moments than was ever seen in any individual production.
The scenes are held in the south where the outrages are most predominant, and the author has not minced words in presenting the facts as they really exist. To give you a slight idea of the situation, the author publishes the following paragraph taken from the middle part of the scenario: "It was late September in Mississippi; the cotton had been picked, ginned, baled and delivered. There was to be a picnic and night festival, and on the preceding afternoon, Jasper Landry, who was by his daughter, Sylvia, who was "going away to school" went to the plantation offices of Philip Girdlestone white, to make a settlement. Now there was a worthless, unlikable fellow named Eph. He was known as a spreader of some who had been something else and fainted the name of hatred in his breast against Landry. Eph. secreted to peep upon the controversy which he had planned, turned away to giggle when a shot rent the air. He whirled and saw Girdlestone falling to the floor, and saw Girdlestone jumping over him holding a smoking revolver. So away went Eph with a greater tale than ever to tell."
What thon happened, you may guess
—but not all!
People interested in the welfare of the Race cannot afford to miss seeing this great production, and remember, it TEILLS IT ALL.

'THE POINTING FINGER'
'THE POINTING FINGER'
Mary MacLaren, a universal star, will be seen at the Owl theater on Sunday in a new photoplay, "The Pointing Finger," based on a magazine story by Frank R. Adams. She is seen as Mary Murphy, the oldest inmate of the orphan asylum, poor poor poor years formented in a fiber that the beseked calico of the institution. On clothing the matron's room she is fascinated by the woman's gaudy clothes and cannot resist the temptation to try on one of the dresses. That afternoon a dishou-
tured girl in the institution leans sum of money in the matron's care, intending to steal it from the safe that night. In the middle of the night he steals the money and perceives Mary slipping away from the institution with the matron's new clothes. He ignores girl's escape, knowing he can fusten the robber of the money on the innocent wolf.
Mary arrives in town, and after many trials obtains a position as assistant to an eccentric old man, whose hobby is collecting bugs. To obtain this job, however, she is compelled to disguise her good looks, as the old fellow insists on plain, middle-neged heels. His pliability allows deception, and a pretty romance develops. When things look brightest for Mary, the shadow of the asylum robbery crosses her path, and she is accused of theft. How her innocence is established, how the guilty meet their just desert and how Mary finds happiness and how Mary MacLean's leading man in the picture is David Butler. Others in the cast are Johnnie Cooke, Carl Stockdale, Lydia Knott, Charlotte Woods, Lillian Ribb and Camilla Clark.
"FINE FEATHERS"
"FINE FEATHERS"
How many times have you oh reader, picked up a newspaper and observed where some poor "devil" of a man or a woman had ruined his or her life and become ensnared in the talons of the law all because they had a taste for luxury beyond their means? and when one lives beyond their means what happens? A resort to nipulation, and oftimes to satire the ever hungering, never appeased desire, for "Fine Feathers." The desire for "Fine Feathers" has caused many a girl to give up the struggle to traverse the "street called straight." For try as she might to win her way to the city she road in her sleeve she grew weary of the attempt to see her clothing becoming threadbare on the nagre salary she was earning as a cog in the industrial machine. And when a chance, a flattering offer, came to forsake this life of toil when she closed it, she would be the "Fine Feathers" that would be her lot if she yielded; she chose "Fine Feathers."
Many a husband has found himself bowed beneath a burden of debts as persistent as the proverbial old man of the sea, all because his wife and family feathers. Such is the case in the domestic history of the Reynolds—the wife, Jane, though not sinfully inclined and loyal to her husband, is cursed wife theacteria of self indulgence, the mental vision and is rapidly spreading poison through her whole structure of character. She is no more nor less than the average wife, who by unhinging extravagance and unusual deprivation, production, is causing the American nation to become one of debtors—not the debtor who by an assumption of credit promotes progress and civilization, but the man who is driven highly any possible beyond his means without ever squaring himself with the world. The situations in this play are strong and are so built as to show that in many cases in life it is a question of yielding to the desire for fine feathers to acquire lead to eternal damnation.
As presented by the present company of Lafayette players at the Avenues, Feathers," for it opens before your eyes a page from life's book that would remain forever hidden if it were not in stage and plays like "Fine Feathers."

THE STANDARD
Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 30.—A great bill is being presented here this week, the offerings covering a wide variety of entertainment. The Iron Hand Glove, a new collection by Ewing and roller skating novelty, is creating a fine impression. The Byrd & Ewing Co., presenting the brilliant musical comedy, "In Siam," is gaining almost universal acclaim. Ewing, gory and his Bunch of Beauties, who are playing an indefinite engagement, bid fair to remain for some time, if the popularity which they have gained by their first two weeks can be taken up, and Muriel Ringold, one of the clearest teams in the business, are hitting them hard, and the balance of the bill is right up to the same high standard.

NOW PLAYING—"THE WOLF"
There is probably no more popular actor on the screen today than Wm. S. Hurt, and he will be seen at the States theater on Saturday of the present week, Jan. 31st, in what has been called the greatest "Hart" production of them all. The feature is "The States all the Doll," and as hight be imagined from the title, it is evenern drama that is so full of the regulation Hart situations that it will keep you on edge during its entire length. There is something peculiar about these Wm. S. Hart features; we have considered real stars playing western there are none who seem to be able to get the real atmosphere in the screening of their offerings. Whether it is because they have not been raised "amidst the surroundings which the leading parts, or whether there is some deeper reason, is hard to tell. Anyway, a "Hart" picture is a "Hart" picture, and there is nothing that comes anywhere near resembling it, a fact which is not to be denied. Do not fail to see "The Devil's Double."
LULU COATES & CO.
Brooklyn, N. Y. Jan. 30. - Lulu Contes and Crackerjacks are the headlined feature with the Hurtig & Seamon Social Malds Co. playing the Empire theater and the unassuming sensation and carries several new and novel offerings, presented in a way that makes the turn a veritable show stopper. The entire company is an amusement entertainment seen here during the current season.
J. J. BOSENTHAL
J. J. Rosenthal, manager of Woods theater, the newest and one of the most successful theaters in the loop, is a marvel, if all that is said of him in a brief article in a late issue of "Women's Apparel Review" is to be believed, and the results that he has achieved would run upside down. His story runs all through Mr. Rosenthal's spindle career and tells, among other things, of how he made $1,000,000 for Al Woods in a short space of time by starring Julian Elfinger in "The Fascinating Widow". But the most appealing part of the leader is that he tells you, for the age of 3, "J. J." but one over on the editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer. When that individual absolutely refused a small贴 that Rosenthal had for the Cincinnati opera house, which the young hustler had promised front page space; he went on to purchase other stamps with the aid of another aid of a mob of newsboys he stamped his ad in red ink on every copy of the big paper. That was 25 years ago and the circulation was not as large as it is now, but the proceeding had its effect and the show played to caress. He was so successful. He is only 50 now, so he isn't through yet. He surely has done wonders for Al Woods as well as for himself.
Leonard Eckner has organized a dramatic company and the first offering, being played in and around Cairo, in the drama, "The Cricket on the Hoof."

VIEW
"EVERYWOMAN"
The showing of the lavisy picturisation of Walter Browne's famous morality play, "Everywoman," at the New York theater this week recallably traced circumstances in which a gifted author, Mr. Browne was a newspaper reporter on a prominent New York daily. His burning ambition was to write a great play for the stage that would something wonderfully different and work with the audience received the brilliant idea of transforming the old morality play of the sixteenth century into an elaborate modern counterpart. The conception of his play was his brain and became a vital, living tool worked upon it, feverishly for years—every moment that he could spare from his newspaper duties—writing, revising and polishing. It became an obsession him, and his life was bound up with the success or failure of his great venture.
At last it was finished and in the manager's hands. The latter saw its immense possibilities at once and enthusiastically went about the staging; the manager worked for weeks upon the preparation for the initial performance, helping in the selection of the cast, the construction of the great settings, and the cuttings. But the last it was ready and Walter Brown was like a man about to realize his heart's desire. Suddenly by a grim turn of fate he was strenched with a mighty illness, very night of his mighty umph at the Squaro Square theater he passed away.

LEMONIER'S LETTER
Hello, Pallie; The dope is—the performers listen to too much "bull" from the little agents trying to show where-
in the managers ain't going to play any more "epade" acts, and when ask them their answer is, "I don't know." The fact is that our acts are so much more of a hit than the regulation Ofay acts the manager sore to think that he is saying the Ofays more for doing less than we are. We sure have a hard time doing business. There ain't but one way to do-

J. DOUGLAS READ
Another "old timer" has accepted the last curtain and passed into the great beyond where criticism has no place and past performances are counted. James Douglas, or "Jim," as he was known to his professional associates died of pneumonia after a brief illness last Saturday. There was no better known vocalist and quartet worker than the deceased, and his experiences carried him from the "good old days" to the present. His theatrical and concert connections have been so numerous that it would be of space to enumerate them. He has since time been connected with the operation of Royal Gardens, a member of the Knights of Pythias and a Mason of long standing.

GEORGE DAY LETTER
Hello Tony: Here are a few eastern show ramblings. Some folks folks might have mistaken my remarks about Frye and Glenn & Jenkins, so I will answer them. I have been working for the Shuberts in different shows, and when they arrived in New York Moss & Frye took the place of Glenn & Jehkling in the Frivolities of 1920 and Glenn & Jenkins still remained on the pay roll for playing four nightly Moss & Frye. We have been entertaining millionaires for a livelihood. Sandifer & Godfrey played the Lincoln all last week. They have a wonderful act. Tom Cross, Abysinia Three, the first half and the Cincinnati Spades the last half, were both a riot as they all took the North. They as a host split. Dad Kelly and around again. Leigh Whipper is promoting a big picture concern. All they lack is a leading lady that knows how to act. Rucker & Winfried are the team that took the North. They say they will never take the North. They steymur & Jeannette tried out at the Harlem opera house and were such a 28 weeks over the Loews time. Chapelle and the Alhambra are last week. Jim and Bob Slater are rehearsing a singing and dancing act called "Long Ago." and hope to open act called "Long Ago." big company into Gibson's Standard. Philly for a long or short run. Gulport & Brown will open soon on big or little time. DeLoach & McLaurin and Brooks & George cleaned up for Offays on the same bill at the City, and on penny the big at Miner's Sunday and over the season. Miss Jackson had to sing her song over the third time. Mr. and Mrs. Kirkpatrick of the Laffayette Players are very popular here. They soon head their own company under the Miner's management. The nam at Brooklyn would be a break in and room rent house; quite a few acts have done hideaways this season. Say, Tony, an actor told me that he was banned at a benefit, if you beat it. I still have something to come down. The C. V. Y. going to build in the spring. Build what? Well, all for this time.

Y. M. C. A. a Success
Baltimore, Md., Jan. 30. —The first year of the Y. M. C. A. marks substantial progress. It is daily crowded with young boys and teenagers eager and anxious to spend their leisure time in the things tending to their uplift. The institution bids fair to become a teaching in eradicating many social evils so forthore existing among the young men.
THE EARL
The people of the south side will be pleased to learn that the old Apollo Theater at Forrestville avenue on 47th street will soon be opened by Martin Klein, the Consolidated Booking Offices, and former manager of the Monogram Theater on Stats street. Mr. Klein, who is at the head of a corporation which will open many new theaters in new territory in the near future, is a man who is thoroughly qualified to look after the amusement wants of the people, and be said, in a way that will be appreciated. He will be no expense spared in making the Earl Chicago's leading vaudeville and feature picture house, the two lines being combined as a combination show, under the same plan that has been made by the Rialto, State-Lake and State-Congress and other Loop theaters.
The Earl, which has a seating capacity of 900, is undergoing a thorough overhauling and is being put in ship-shape for opening, which occurs Halley Versailles Orchestra has been recently engaged and nothing but the best acte procurable will be used. The doors will open nightly at 7 and the shows will start at 7:15 and 9:30 sharp, with the vaudeville bill being the highlight and the feature pictures changed nightly. This theater should have great success under the management of Mr. Klein and with the policy which he has laid out for it. The offerings are reviewed each week in the Defender.
REAL TRIBUTE
The following glowing tribute, written by the Race's leader in his line, T. Wallace Swann, appeared in the anniversary program of the Standard Philadelphia Rite. The guiding principle of the New Standard Theater is to give its patrons the best the stage affords. The people who appear before its footlights must excel in all kinds of work. They must be the best and present the best to amuse, entertain, instruct and play. The standard set by the Gibson management is now recognized and followed by the chief factors in the amusement world. The morale of the stage has improved a thousand fold. Patron, playwright and player have been benefited. Better productions, better consideration for both player and playwright, better pay for all con- ditions and better appraisal by the public is now the rule and not the exe- cption.
In the six years which cover the control and direction of the New Standard Theater by Mr. John T. Gibson, he has given to him more than to any other living individual, is due this remarkable triumph. He is a master of the profession and devotes his entire personality to the consumption of his art as a consequence, the creator of love. I asked Mr. Gibson what was his chief desire. He replied, slowly, but firmly: "It is to pluck a thorn and to plant a rose where a flower will grow." More power to this deserving Son of Joy!

Beautiful, Long, Soft, Glossy, Wavy Hair The Greatest Desire of Every Woman Whose Hair is Short, Coarse and Wiry
Most of a woman's attractiveness depends on her hair. She may have a lovely complexion, her clothes becoming tailored, but without pretty, soft, glossy, wavy hair, she would lack that charm so much desired.
First wash the hair thoroughly with a good soap or shampoo. (There is nothing better than Black and White Soap.) Then apply Black and White Hair Dressing in little pieces night and morning, rubbing well into the scalp. Brush the hair thoroughly, several times a day, if possible. Wash the hair again in one week. The regular and continued use of Black aand White Hair Dressing will so improve your hair that you will be proud of the day you bought your first package.
You will be more attractive, popular in social life, successful in business—you will be admired by everybody, if you will care for your hair properly so as to make it grow longer, softer and dress it to become your style of beauty.
HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE YOUR HAIR.
If your hair is dry, wiry and coarse, it is necessary to use a treatment that will feed the roots of the hair. Dandruff will cause your hair to become dry, wiry and brittle and soon fall out. and a preparation that will also relieve this scalp trouble is very important.
While the creamy lather of a cake of Black and White Soap is superior for relieving dandruff and cleansing the scalp and hair, some people prefer a liquid shampoo. You can make your own shampoo by shaving a quarter of a cake of Black and White Soap and dissolving in a pint of boiling water. When cool it is ready for use. This pint of liquid soap costs but little and lasts for a long time. Get a bar of Black and White Soap and try it.
The proper washing of the hair and scalp must be given every care and a pure medicated Soap or Shampoo used once a week.
THE BEST HAIR DRESSING.
Black and White Hair Dressing is a new white preparation composed of the purest and best ingredients known by specialists to relieve dandruff and make the hair grow soft and glossy. Some time was spent in testing the merits of this new hair dressing, and the manufacturers believe that they now have the best preparation on the market. Certainly there is no dressing just like Black and White for hair troubles.
Black and White Hair Dressing can be bought at any good drug store, but if your local dealer will not supply you with this new white hair preparation, bearing the Black and White Label, accept no substitutes—send the Plough Chemical Co., Memphis, Tenn., 50c for a package of the Hair Dressing and a bar of Black and White Soap, or,3 packages Black and White Hair Dressing and 2 bars of Black and White Soap will be sent you postpaid, for $1.00.

LONE IN, Jan. 29—William Marconi, inventor of the wireless, discussed in more detail the mysterious signals caught on the more powerful wireless apparatus which yesterday, he said, might possibly be signals from another planet. Moreover he be signals; we do not know. They are not what operators call atmospheric, and we have nothing to guide us at present as to how they are caused.
"We do not get them unless we set up a special wave length. These sounds occur when we are using a wave length of approximately 100-kilometers, which is three or four times the length used for commercial purposes.
"We haven't gone out of our way to look for the signals because they are no good to us, but they seem very persistent. Three short rips are often made into the letter 'S' in the Morse alphabet, but there are sounds also which might stand for other letters. I want to make it clear, however, that nothing in the nature of a message can be accidental or the fact that some one is trying to signal, and it isn't wise to build too great expectations."
Marconi said the sounds were curiously musical and appear to originate at a great distance, which might be the result of the noise he had no recent reports about them because the great wave length necessary was not usually in operation.

a recent visit here w' tle working on a
brief.in behalf of tho case of Dr. Leroy
N. Bundy, Wm. C. Hueston, of the firm
of Hueston & Calloway of Kansas
City, Mo., was asked his opinion with
reference (o the recent suggestion that
Gary, Ind., is destined to become the
mecea of the people of our group.
“I am of the opinion,” said Mr.
Hueston, “that Gary offers a wonder-
ful opportunity for our people, and the
object of the organization with which
I am identified is to take advantage
of this opportunity. You understand
that the only hindragee which we have
in Gary Is our inability to get houses,
for thero are no vacant ones. One of
our objects ‘is to build these houses
upon such terms as our people can
handle," Our corporation is capitalized
ae $600,000, with nearly half of the
common stock paid in, so that we are
ready to begin operations.
__ Mr. Hueston was asked what of the
immediate opportunity for getting
hold of Gary property.
“David Glueck Realty Company,”
continued Mr, Hlueston, “has $800,000
in feo simple in Gary, ‘In taking over
this corporation, we acquire this prop-
erty, and will be prepared to turn it
over to the large number of our group
who have their eyes set on Gary. In
Gary there are roany industries em-
ploying thousands of men. The stecl
plants alone employ as high as 28,000
and Race men are being omployed as
far as they can be accommodated with
living quarters, Gary will be one of
the largest cities in the country, as
welt ag the wealthiest, as all steel cit
ies are wealthy. Property” values’ in
our opinion wilt be doubled.
‘Tho establishment by ten of our
group of half a million corporition in

George W. Ellis, who served as secretary of the American legation at Liberia. For his services he received high commendation from those in charge of the mission.

In a pamphlet entitled "Race Relations and Civic Betterment," Mary E.

"WE COVER CHICAGO LIKE THE MORNING DEW
THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
THE POLITICAL POT
By A. N. Fields
The large number of our people who have migrated to this and other cities in the north, east and west in search of opportunities to work out their destinies will fall in their travel unless they avail themselves of the opportunity of living in their environment through the exercise of their suffrage as voters. This can only be done by going to the polls on registration and meeting the requirements essential for the completion of your citizenship. Unless you register Feb. 3, in Illinois, those who live here will be unable to vote. Representatives will be in the state and national government for the next four years. The man who fails to avail himself of the vote in the interest of the things he believes to enhance the success of the government is unworthy of having the opportunity to chise yourself by your own negligence.
The political information is going the rounds out in the Sixth ward that the cohorts of Roy O. West, candidate for governor, and the people that Mr. West is a Thompson and that he is one of the mayor's best friends. Just the reverse is true. The mayor is represented in the Sixth ward by a man with an ability and intelligence. He comes from a school of thought, culture and refinement, which enables him to breathe an atmosphere entirely different from the life of Mr. West, during his political career. Mr. McLaughlin lives beyond the hampering influences of petty prejudices and respects men in his community, and proportion to their racial identity. If members of our group believe in the policies of Mayor Thompson, then the political future of Mr. West will be elected.
Hon. Edward H. Wright of the Second ward, William A. Bither of the Third, James W. Breen of the Thirtieth, Dr. W. H. Reed of the Thirtieth, trustees of friends and deserve the unstinted support of our people residing in their respective wards. It is essential that wherever possible for our aid to be effective to see that it is used in the interest of men and measures with them the hardest possibilities for the advancement of our people.
Rescue Arrivals at the "Y"
Dr. "Birt" Anderson Buys Car
The Hudson Motor Car company had
received in show rooms on Michie
evening in the Dr. Hudson coupe model of their supersizes
when Dr. "Birt" Anderson dropped in.
After giving the "boat" the once over
the water, the salesmen lars under the four thousand mark) he
out took his trusty fountain pen and
wrote a check for the full amount.
The salesmen lars took the wheel and in a few moments was speeding to 3500 State
street. There may be better cars on
the road, so a meeting committee
has been out for a number of days to
find them, without avail.
A Man on the Bench
It is high time that the powers that he should look with favor upon giving to the government a serious department of the government where our numerical strength justifies it by reason of our votes. Every other principal court bench except ours, even those with much less political strength whose whose patriotism and Americanism are holding positions of confidence largely in excess of their voting power, who who have proved our loyalty, are not permitted to enjoy our just deserts.
APPOMATTOX CLUB
The membership drive continues lively. Some of the latest are Robert H. Haley, the director of the Tuncil, Benj. Stovall, D. E. Bolton, H. Haley, Thos. H. Allen, Dr. Ira M. Mason and Dr. A. N.

Dr. Trill, who sings good tenor, joins Weaver's class has supplied some of his first efforts to tinue installments from time to time.

She soars through the canals, passing through the Panama Canal and down the west coast, returning up the cast coast, visiting the principal cities of Brazil and Brazil. She goes as a Spanish interpreter for a wealthy banker and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Patterson, 1418 Hyde Park Blvd. (white). The hotel offers a safe return from this wonderful trip.
Ivan Stewart Buried
Ivan Stewart, 3728 Vernon avenue, local musician, died at his home Saturday, Jan. 24, after just one week's illness. Mr. Stewart was an excellent violin player and leader of the Phoenix Local 208 of American Federation of Musicians. The body was shipped of Cassich, Mich. Tuesday, and about fifty members of Local 208 accompanied Jackson undertaking establishment, the house. Sergei, "Bill" Berry was leader of the band.
Attention, City and County Authorities. The fire department and the police department, in their various branches, such as the motorcycle and mounted cops, should be properly Americanized in the administration of affairs, to the extent necessary. The police department sent in the various branches of the fire department, as well as the various branches of the police department. The county jail should be an institution in the prisoners receive the same kind of treatment—no discrimination should be made.

Graduate Nurse Makes Good
Provident. Hospital Nurse Training School has graduated, since its inception, about 170 young women, and it has yet to record an instance where it has been made. In every section of the country these young women can be forging responsible positions or successfully working in the private nursing field.
Miss Jessie Fite, a recent graduate, is a fair sample. A call came for a company to supervise from the Muskogee Tuberculosisarium, and Miss Klimmel, superintendent Provident Hospital, recommended Miss Fite. The following communication superintendent at the Muskogee Institute speaks or itself: "I want to tell you the perfect satisfaction the nurses, Miss Hassie Towler and Miss Jessie Fite, are giving in their work here. The increase in $25 per month, starting Fite, have every reason in the world to be proud of your nurses, and I certainly am very grateful to you for your recurrent work. The good work that this institution has done is doing will live forever, and Chicagoans should lend every support.

Rufus Wallingford
Must Take a Back Seat
It happened in the Colonial barber shop, 3447 South State street, a place largely patronized by the great and near great. Information was brought to the city editor that a certain well known celebrity on the "Stroll" had suddenly acquired considerable finances by reason of a small investment in "Ivory" stock. "Pink Tea," the dry
reporter, was told to get out and get the dope. Pink wandered into Buck's place and was all eyes focused on the quater chair, which reposed on certain well known epicurean artist surrounded by a coterie of servants administering to his delicate and artistic design and manure. Was pulling each hand, two porters shining his shoes, and two barbers working on him, one applying the hot cloth while /I/ went into the possession of several hundred thousand dollars through an investment in "bones", and just happened to be on the right side of the market. It could not be learned in which of the places of chance this little fortune was going to have, have plenty of dough and spent it freely. Buck, the proprietor, was a little nonplussed at the lavish expenditure of money, and when you surprise Buck you are going to give it for he has been all around the world.
Street Department
While the conduct of the members of our group when in public places in the city do not seem to realize that they are a civilized community, in the street car, in places of amusement and even in the school, talking and boisterous laughter murks them as being devoid of home training. In the matter of dress there is no difference, even when one is as poor as the proverbial church mouse. And the quicker this class learns that they are a central entire community the better it will be.
Watermelon Famine
If the high prices during the coming summer months continue our favorite faux-luxury fauxwatermelon, will doubtless be the most expensive with no discount off for the seed and rind. Unfortunately city dwellers have no garden plot they can call their own and either have to pay the price or go "down home" on a visit to the old foliage.

Of much interest to Chicagoans is the placement in foster homes of our
Illinois Children's Home and Aid society
This organization has dependent children committed to its custody by the state and are to be 'placed in appropriate homes. But the society finds great difficulty in securing even temporary homes where the children little waits, whose parents are in many cases not fit to rear them. This is a real opportunity for good, and safe homes where the laughter and happiness of a child would indeed be welcomed. An instance of this society is given below: Mabel Baged 10, came under the society's supervision because of truancy and stealing, and because of ignorance, willingness and lack of responsibility part of her parents. She has been placed in a good home, where the Mabel is happy and has improved remarkably.

INCREASE IN INTEREST RATES MAY CUT H.C.L
Many Begin to Feel That Federal Reserve Action May Have Good Effect
Some local bankers who have large commercial accounts believe that the general stiffening in interest rates, which has followed the reserve boards' advance in discounts from 4% to 6 per cent, will result in the slowing up of borrowing and a disposition to be careful in the buying of additional merchandise. These bankers now give greater approval to the advances made by the reserve board than they were at first inclined to extend. So far as the banks are advised, there is not in the west accumulation of raw materials for speculative purposes such as obtain at the seaboard, in the mid-season today. The overbuying in the mid-season may then due in part to stocking up against contingencies in railroad transportation. Merchants claim they have bought more stocks in the last six months than desired because of inability to transport for goods when needed. The bankers have blamed for whatever of undue volume of stocks that is being carried.
It is thought that as merchants begin to calculate the increased cost of buying goods because of increased interest charges, they may begin to reflect before trying to pass the new charge again to the ultimate consumer prices are already high; that further increases in interest about a period of individual curtailment and that possibly it is better to marking down prices rather than adding thereto.
This latter spirit, or, rather, the wisdom of it, is beginning to be noted in the situations of those who are in touch with business conditions. There is always a question concerning an actual movement, and the "high price for everything idea" does not meet with the easy favor that characterized it a few months ago.
Everybody Profiteered
And to state the matter frankly, it is being generally conceded that everybody has been profiteering. This has been brought about to make high prices and high wages and through the even has established a fixed high cost for the undue profits has been the penalty for the undue profits has been a permanently increased first cost.
As to the banks themselves, the increase in the federal reserve discount rates will shut off one source of ruthless protective profit. That is, while a bank holds a reserve bank and lend at 6, the spread in the way of profit was more easily made than to borrow from the reserve bank at 6 and lend at 6½ per cent. Another set of financial transactions that will soon begin to meet with disclosures is the constant fluctuation of new securities not backed by adequate assets.
FEAR BLOODSHED IN
TEXAS BORDER CLASH
OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., Jan. 28. Only immediate action by Gov. Robertson can avert bloodshed as a culprit to the Red River controversy in Tillamah in Tillamah, where telegrams received today by Gov. Robertson from citizens of Grand Field, Okla., Texas and Oklahoma both claim a strip of border land between the two states and the feeling runs high.

Just before dawn one morning, when rumors were affloat that the world would come to an end, all the planets in the solar system, the earth alone excepted, swung into an approximately straight line. Astronomers watched the maneuver, which was the grandest that has occurred in the last twenty centuries, and found it quite as planetary conjunctions usually are.
MODERN FARMER USES MANY WORDS NOT YET IN THE DICTIONARIES
A great many terms in common use to agricultural discussions have never found a place in the dictionary. So widely used and important a term as "vitamin" has not yet found its way into the principal unabridged dictionaries. For the public, therefore, there exists no approved spelling, no approved pronunciation, and no approved definition of the name of a thing that is vital to all living things. There are scores of terms, independent of agricultural writing or speaking, that have not been recognized by the lexicographers, and there are quite as many new usages of established words. "Blood line," "overrun," a term widely used to express the thing that is practically the determining factor of profits in creamy establishments; "standardbred," "trap nest," and any number of other commonly used agriculturists, remain undefined for the accurate information of the general public.
Government experts have begun a movement to standardize the use of such terms, and about 30 of them are on the griddle now. Three points of view are taken—that of the fieldman who knows the common usage of the layman, that of the scientist who has a viewpoint of the specialist, and the point of view that looks merely to the use of good English. Each word is submitted to the various classes of persons interested, together with the proposed usage and the authority or lack of authority for it. From the suggestions received in reply the finally approved usage will be determined. The first agricultural term to be actioned is the unintended descriptor was "corn belt." That was considered more appropriate than com-belt or cornbelt.
Taking Ways
When mother and her brood started to town the weather was threatening, so she did not go unprepared. In due time they stepped off the crowded train at the south station. "Have you got all the umbrellas, Johnny?" was her first question. "I should say I had," said the boy, "I had three when I started and now I've got five." -Boston Transcript.
Jupiter was there, with his four moons. He is the big fellow of the sun's retinue of worlds, and showed a decidedly "don't care" attitude.
His brother in space, Saturn, was also present with his ring.
Farther on in the sky was Mars playing second to tiddle to Jupiter in order of brightness. There is hope for this fellow, for when he comes near the earth next summer he will outshine every other light in the sky.
TRANSPORT POWHATAN IS SAFELY DOCKED IN HALIFAX HARBOR
HALIFAX, N. S., Jan. 28.—The American transport Powhatan, disabled and deep in the water, was today docked at the ocean terminals here after ten-day battle with terrific blizzards for miles as and zero weather. The crew of 255 men and 16 officers were safely ashore.
The Powhatan was towed into Halifax early last night and after lying in the stream two hours was docked at the government pier at the south end of the amphitheatre, scores of ambulances and attendants ached at the door to remove the sick to hastily prepared hospitals, but they were not needed. Only two or three were slightly ill. None was frost bitten. The crew was immediately taken off the sterner and lodged and fed at Camp soldiers'-civil establishment hospital. Members of the crew were paid an extra $20, to be used for a celebration. The Powhatan will remain here until a new propeller is installed. The moderating weather of yesterday (totally clear) covered a large portion of covering of ice which had accumulated during her battle with the wind and rain and seas.

Venus, shaped like a half moon, blazed out with her accustomed luster over in the east. Venus is the white planet, and was very bright. Little Mercury, brought up the end of the line down in the dawnlight. It was an excellent sight to see so many bright worlds in a line, but as far as dislocating the cogs of the celestial mechanism went, it fizzled badly.
KAISER'S BIRTHDAY
FAILS TO DEVELOP
BERLIN, Jan. 28.—The birthday of former Kaiser Wilhelm apparently was destined to pass without incident. Rumors of unarchief outreaches following the shooting of M. Erzberger, minister of finance, showed no signs of becoming real, as the troops of Gen. Noske patrolled the streets.
Wilhelmstrasse was guarded with hosed wire entanglements, while troops were sent to each entrance, forbidding the public to approach government buildings.
The condition of the finance minister, while more dangerous than at first, was described by his physicians as "favorable." Erzberger spent a good night in the prison, but examination has revealed that his expulsion blade was spintered by the bullet fired by Otto Hirschfeld, the young German student who attacked him in front of the courts building. Von Hirschfeld sits in jail.
Physicians believed Erzberger will recover safely unless an infection develops.

Ex-Keiser Wants to Stay in Holland
THE HAGUE, J. .. 28.—Former Emperor William observed his 61st birthday—his second since he has been at Haguenau. In a Letter Count Hohenzollern sent from Amerongen on Jan. 2 to Prince Fürstenberg and published in the Neue Zeitung of Berlin, the former emperor stated he had no desire to return to Germany, but he believed even by gen. Ludendorff, Field Marshal von Hindenburg and Admiral von Tirpitz. He said he could not bear to see the ruin in his country and that he looked forward with pleasure to living at Doorn. He and others, say the Dutch officials, reflect exactly the former emperor's attitude so far as they know. The Dutch press is beginning to show signs of alarm in consequence of Holland's refusal to grant the extrajudicial former ruler, but it is learned that the emperor and determined to stick to its attitude.

Egg Ars, Jersey City, N. J. 32-30-65
A few months ago a man saw an advertisement in a paper which stated that a tailor, shop was for sale in a good location. He made an investment in the business, so well satisfied with the prospects that he withdrew $500 from the bank borrowed some more money and purchased the business. He made some of the materials and was beginning to build good trade when he was notified by the landlord that his rent would be raised. He was also informed by the landlord that if he didn't pay the interest, he would have to move inside of 30 days.
The tenant soon found out that he was in a very serious position, because he elder had to pay the increase in the rent or move to a new location. He had to pay the increase again. It is a splendid thing to see any of our Race go into business, especially when he is trying to conduct a business which will be a benefit to himself, his family and the community in the same way. He must learn the same time we ought to learn to do business in a business-like manner. And one of the first things every business man should do is to have a lease of the premises which will enable him to build up a good business and also keep the trade he has developed.

SUBSCRIBERS
THE mechanical cost of filling subscriptions has almost doubled itself in the last two years and the situation promises no relief. You can cost THE CHICAGO DEFENDER henceforth will adopt the current practice among publishers of not sending formal acknowledgments of remittances. For example, when you renew your subscription you longer receive a reply giving you your longer money order came, and the expiration dates of your subscription. Instead, the wrapper on the second issue following the receipt of your renewal will bear the new information informing you that your remittance was received and subscription extended. If you are a new subscriber the receipt of copies of the expiration date on the wrapper will be our acknowledgment.
ALSO, we would advise our subscribers that we will no longer advise them of the expiration of their subscriptions, and ask them to lend their whole-hearted co-operation in the matter by WATCHING THEIR DATE LINE on the wrapper of their paper. THEIR DATE THEIR SUBSCRIPTION all subscriptions are on that data stricken from our mailing lists unless extension is made.

39TH SESSION CLOSED
Tuskegee, Ala., Jan. 30.—The 99th Tuskegee conference closed under glowing and interesting circumstances. The relations of the races were discussed pro and con by leading members of our group. Governor Thomas W. Bickett of North Carolina delivered the ablest and most comprehensive address, among things, he said, "The white man owes it to his own tradition, to his own self-respect and to his own self-preservation to guarantee to your race South, in denying to your people any participation in the making and in the administration of the law, makes them the law. It requires sense and sympathy and patience to work out a reformation; real greatness and progress or men, or of nations are assumed, not by their contribution to the forces that make life brighter and sweeter for the average man." F. Hubert, Orange, S. C.; Eugene K. Jones, New York; W. J. Decatur, Cincinnati; N. B. Young, Florida, and John B. Renault, Pennsylvania, voiced similar sentiments.

Views of ‘Mr. Smith of Tennessee
THERE IS NO REASON in the world why Mr. Bolton
Smith of Tennessee shouldn’t have views on the eternal race
question. Everybody else has, but unfortunately the columns
of the Congressional Record are not open to every one. Con-
gressman McKellar paved the way for Mr. Smith and readers
of this government journal can digest at will his “Philosophy
of Race Relations.” One of the first things to do in writing
an article is to get a start. It doesn’t much matter whether
you take e hackneyed subject and clothe it in a new dress, or
spring something entirely new, after you get a start you can
roam about at will. Mr. Smith chose the former and starts
out thus:
“When we think of Negro progress we ask ourselves:
Will not his progress result in a growing demand for social
‘equality, and since we will never consent to social equality,
why should we make our problem more difficult by aiding the
progress which would seem to lead to it? So firmly fixed is
‘this thought that as soon as any one begins to discuss the lynch-
dngs of Negroes or to call for their better education many peo-
ple at once conclude you are an advocate of ‘social equality
and intermarriage as the ultimate solution of the Race ques-
tion.”
LIKE A DROWNING MAN grasping for a straw, so the
‘white American clings to his nightmare, social equality. With-
out this specter ever before him he would be at a loss for an
excuse to harass us. It is so flimsy, so utterly absurd, so far
fetched and idiotic, we gasp in amazement at these “superior”
beings and thank our stars that our education along these lines
at least has been sadly neglected. There is no such thing as
equality, social or otherwise. Nature abhors equality, evidence
of which is everywhere to be found. Within the ranks of the
white race there are stratas and stratas, only the line of de-|
markation is not emphasized by color.
IT IS WITHIN THE POWER of each individual to sur-
round himself or herself with those and only those who are
congenial. This being true, why fear and discredit others? As
far as the thinking class of our group is concerned, there is
absolutely no desire to mingle in a social way with white peo-
ple. We are selfish enough and particular enough to mingle
with those of our own, and we would thank many of the whites
to follow our example. To rub elbows with us in a ball room,
to dine with us in a cafe is too close contact, it spells social
equality; to prey on our women, to mongrelize our Race—vwell,
that is a horse.of another color. Consistency, thou art a jewel,
v’ LET MR. SMITH again have the floor.’ “One advantage
accruing to the Negro from Race separateness. Consider how
harmful to the Negro girl and how destructive of the purity
of the Negro home it would be if white men with their superior’
Tanners, education and wealth, could freely mingle in Negro
socicty without loss of standing in their own; yet this is ex-
actly what social equality would bring about. Some may be
surprised at the suggestion that there may be purity in the
Necro home, but all things ave relative. * * * It is plain
that the introduction cf white men into Colored society would
make progress in self-control much more dificult. * * *
The white man moving in Negro society would be as Louis
XIV moving among his vassals. Nor is it necessary to assume
that the white man is especially bad, but it does seem that
‘wher brought in contact with a woman possessing any element
of p*ysical attraction, but for whom he feels no respect, the
sexual passion in man does assert itself powerfully.”
SURELY MR. SMITH does not mean to say the white man
is so morally weak he cannot be trusted to play the part of a
gentleman when thrown in the company of prepossessing
‘women, even if those women are not in his social strata, Surely
he does not mean to belittle the charms of the fair sex in the
white race? White men with “their superior manners” seem
to be not averse to certain forms of “social equality.” In the
light of these facts how could we assume “the white man is
necessarily bad?” Certainly not, Society winks at the eaprices
of the white man, while the mob lynches the Colored man
‘when they suspicion he even looked at a white woman. Pleas-
ant facts to contemplate, but facts nevertheless,
“AMERICA IS AND MUST REMAIN A WHITE MAN'S
COUNTRY. The only question is, Shall this end be achieved
by the Prussian method of pure coercion or shall we give sym-
pathy and justice a fair trial?” With all due respect to Mr.
Smith and others of his ilk, we are forced to take issue with
him on the question of ownership of this country. Might does
not make right and it is well to remember that there is a vast
difference between the Indian and the black man. The Negro
is not “a ward of the nation,” never was and never will be.
Better say the white people of the south were wards of the
Negro, for it was by the sweat of the black man’s brow the
southern white. man lived and had his being.
.,,;7E AGREE with the writer in this point, that there is a
middle ground, but that middle ground must have none of the
earmarks of the “equal accommodations” that are a part and
aie! of the high-handed methods in use in certain sections
of this country. Our sole request has. been for an even break,
politically and industrially. We long to be let atone that we
may work out our own salvation. If we could but impress on.
the minds of harmful racial agitators that social equality is
more obnoxious to us than to them, they would cease their
mouthings and peace and harmony would prevail, but we fear
our labors along this line would be fruitless, so we will be
charitable and console ourselves with the thought that when
we are the subject of their wrath they are not panning other
innocent people.
