Fending further investigation by the Cleveland Hospital Council, the Welfare Federation is withholding indemnity of the plans for a Lincoln Memorial hospital for colored people as put forward by the Cleveland Hospital Association, an organization of colored physicians. In a preliminary report the hospital council quotes from the Cleveland hospital and health survey to show there is practically no discrimination against colored people in any of the hospitals. The council says most of the colored patients in hospitals are charity patients and voices the fear that a hospital for exclusive use of that race would not be self-supporting. Dr. Joe T. Thomas, 2406 E. 400th St. president of the Cleveland Hospital Association, admitted, yesterday, that many colored patients in the hospitals are charity cases, but said that situation is due to the fact that most well-to-do colored people now have medical attendance in their home in reference to entering the hospitals. He said these would patronize and support the proposed hospital. "We would closely consent to the appointment of a white superintendent of nurses and white physician to form a clinic and consulting staff to help direct the hospital." At present there is no opportunity for the colored practitioner of the city to do hospital work which would help those directly involved in the profession. There are colored hospital officers.

Last Fall. of the national government should stamp out lynching and murder from the fair name of America." "I believe in equality before the law. You cannot give one right to the white man and deny the same right to the black man." "The American citizen has the good sense to know this truth. He has the clear head and the brave heart to live it. I proclaim to all the truth which America ought to know, that he has not the fear and that he did not and will not fail America. I proclaim that America has not and will not fail the American Negro." "I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battlefields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands." "If I have anything to do with it, there shall be good American of edience to the law. Brutal, unlawful violence whether it proceeds from those that break the law or from those that take the law into their own hands, can only be dealt with in one way by true Americans. Fear not. Here, upon this beloved soil you shall have justice that every man and woman of us knows would have been prayed for by Abraham Lincoln. Your people, by their restraint, their patience, their wisdom, integrity, labor and belief in God, have earned it, and America will bestow it." Some Good Reasons Why There Is No Member From That Section. The South Endorsed That Miserable Attack of Last Fall on The President-He May Forgive But Cannot Forget It According to reports, Principal Motion of Tuskegee and two southern ministers visited Mr. Harding asking that a southern man be included in his cabinet. That Mr. Harding would refuse this request is obvious. Principal Motion should remember that the youth did its worst to defeat Mr. Harding and the sure way it calculated to defeat him, was to publish to the world that he had Negro blood in his vines. There was no southern man I have enough to conquer this asinine attack. Then to the south is hostile towards the rights and privileges of Negroes everywhere. A typical southern man in the Caribbean would be a "rotten apple in the barrel." The South is too land of lynching, mob violence, murder, arson, human burning, deception and of loyalty to the American flag. We had too many south men in the administration of Woulore Willow. We are just a little surprised that Principal Motion could be used by the South to ask this of Mr. Harding. His institution families the information concerning the horrors of the South. We do not believe Mr. Motion deserves the Harding administration to follow the trail of the Woulore administration. Our colored伯伯伯 of the South may know now, as later, that the South cannot fix the status of the Negro in this country. What colored men take and suffer in the South in order to live, will not be taken or endured any where else under the sun. The policy of having colored youths to recognize the fact that they are inferior to southern white people and that they IN UNION IT IS STRONG ding! my Republicans as I am physically alike to me." moment should stamp out lynching air name of America." be the law.

That Miserable Attack President—He May cannot Forget It are not to ask the same privileges of America that white people ask, will not be tolerated in any section of this country outside of the South. When the South recognizes itself as a part of the Union and acts upon that basis, giving all men the rights of American citizenship within its bounds, then it will be time for it to enter a Cabinet that knows no sections or race in the administration of laws. We congratulate Mr. Harding in leaving the South, out until it shows signs of conversion from its damnable ways. Many colored men are aspiring to go to Haytij as Minister-Plenipotentiary from this country. We have no right to wage against any of the assistants but we do feel that Mr. Harding could not do a wiser thing than send the intrepid Hen. Harry C. Smith, colleague of The Gazette, who fought so vigently for the election of his fellow statesman, our new President, Mr. Smith is simply qualified to meet the exacting conditions now existing in that island. By contact and training he is capable of being an unbisset judge of matters in Haytij and he would live up to the highest traditions of American diplomacy. His journalistic eye would soon behold the need of that country and he would be prudent and fair enough to recommend what is best for it. Colored men should be sent abroad and among them no finer can be found than the Hon. Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, Ohio. (Rev.) Wm. A.

It is said that Mayor FitzGerald re- cently stopped the distribution in this city of Henry Ford's paper, the Dear- born Independent, because of its anti- Jewish articles. How about it? See Thank the Lord for relieving the country of the Wilson administration incubus. Our people are especially thankful for obvious reasons. rae We salute you, President Harding, and U, 8, Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty, and wish your adminis- tration of affairs every success. So does all Ohio and the country. eee It is quite within the possibilities that the (German) glorifiers of the “Lusitania” murders may believe that there is a warm spot for them in American hearts and a vacuity in ‘American heads which may be ex- ploited to their advantage. German propaganda here may be even now go- ing on—Harvey’s Weekly. “May be” is good! It certainly 13, and “American heads” (white) are “winking at” and permitting it to go on in spite of ithe earnest protests of loyal Afro-Americans who are being greatly harmed by it. It is reported that there are fewer job hunters in evidence than are usually found on the eve of a change in administration at Washington. One editor attributes it to the fact that wages in private industry have in- creased while those in the Govern- ment service have remained virtually at their pre-war standard, hence men are loath to enter the ranks of Fed- eral employees. May not the real truth be that Republicans as a class ‘are more intelligent and industrious than Democrats as a class, hence do niot have to depend upon government patronage for their livelihood ? —illi—_ Lemuel T. Boydston Post, No. 89, this city, voted in favor of the forma- tion of a yifle regiment at its meeting, Monday fight, in Central Marine aug: itorium. The aid of Gov. Harry L. Davis and Senator Willis has been en- listed and the Post members are de- sharing that they do not want a “dite digging” but a fighting regiment. Good! The Wilson Democratic oll- garcy at Washington, D. C., has gone, thank the Lord, and now we will re- turn to the former state of affairs un- der a real Republican regime. There will be no more (for at least four ze of that Democratic determina- tion in governmental conduct to seg- regate and lower the status of our people to that of the South that has characterized the Wilson southern Democratic administration, and_bur- dened the entire country to its shame and sorrow, for the last eight years. Ohio will have a battalion or regiment of Afro-American riflemen like it had prior to eight years ago, or none. Rah! for Boydston Post and our other for- mer service men thruout the state whom we know thoroly endorse its most commendable stand. If the American farmer will turn to page 14 of the Monthly Summary of Foreign Commerce for December he will find statisties of imports of eggs, fresh, frozen and dried. He will find that in the year 1920 the United States imported 20,000,000 fresh eggs, 9,000,- 000 pounds of egg albumen and 29,- 000,000 pounds of dried and frozen eggs, nearly all the dried eggs coming from China. Under a Republican tar- iff law, the fresh eggs paid an import ‘tax of 5 cents per dozen while under ‘the Democratic tariff law the fresh eggs come in free. The Democrats cut the former tax on dried eggs from 15 cents to 10 cents per pound. ‘Thus we see that while the American egg producer is having a hard time get- ting the money to pay ais taxes the Democratic party is mcking the tax burden lighter of lifting it entirely for the foreign producer, ——i—— BALTO-JAP LINES. About the same time that the “Pa. eifie Mail” was starting a new regular service between Baltimore and San Praneisco, through the Panama Canal, “mere comes the announcement that two big Japanese lines have deter: mined to sehd ships to Baltimore to load cargoes for’ the Far East. The sme Japanese concerns will also es- tablish steamer serviee between Bal- timore and British ports. This news comes at a time when we are informed that many government-owned ships are tied up at the docks for want of business. It is pleasing to know that the “Pacifie Mail” has in full swing its “Round-the-World” service, and in. creased coast-to-coust service, Init it is a little disheartening to learn that Japan will run steamers not only be- tween her own ports and U. S. ports on the Atlantic but between American and British ports. It is to be hoped the new shipping board will be able to help meet competition of this kind. It probably cannot be done by gov: ernment operation, which is always expensive, but plans should be worked out for control of shipping that is naturally ours. Soi: | aw CHIEF SMITH SHOULD STOP IT. The se called “Women’s Committee of Protest, temporary headquarters, 1570 W. 3rd St.,” this city, is circu- lating some mighty “raw” literature (German propaganda against France, primarily, and against our people), throughout the city. We presume the same policy is being followed through- out the country, It is the same “stuff” that Sectetary of State Colby de- nounced in the daily press of the coun- try, the first of the week, as being untrue end “German propaganda egainst France” because that country is trying to force the Allies to make Germany pay indemnities agreed upon in the Peace Treaty, We have called Police Chief Smith's attention to the fact tha: the distribution of that “in- flammable” literature has already aroused many of our people to the de- gree that will eventually cause the formation of a mob and the storming ‘of those “temporary headquarters” for the purpose of destroying that mob- ‘inspiriag literature and putting the headquarters out of commission.” |Avoid all this, Chief, by doing your clear duty in the matter. We here and now call upon Mayor FitzGerald, too, to do his duty promptly in the matter, The distribution of that in- feral lying “literature” is an out- Frage oa the entire community. Why are not our Women’s clubs, the local branch of the N, A. A. C. P. and our Cleveland Association of Business ‘Men active in this matter? Department of Public Safety, Office of the Chief of Police. Cleveland, Feb. 26, 1921. H. C. Smith, Esq., Editor Gazette, City. Dear Sir:—I am in receipt of a clipping from The Gazette referring to literature being distributed in the city by the Women’s Committee of Pro- test, 1570 W. 3rd St., regarding the ‘alleged conduct of colored French sol- diers on the Rhine (in Germany). "Permit me to advise you that some weeks ago my attention was called to the same and I immediately ordered that the matter be taken up with the United States authorities with a view to ascertaining what steps could be taken to compel them to discontinue. ‘The investigating officer called upon Mr. Bliss Morton, of the U. S. Department of Justice, who exhibited severa} copies of the same pamphlets and stated that to send out the same was no violation of law. Consequent- ly there appears to be nothing we can do in the matter. Thanking you for calling my atten- ie to the same, I am, Respectfully yours, Frank Smith, ; Chief of Police. Cleveland, Feb. 28, 21. ‘Mr. Frank Smith, Chief of Pplice, City. Dear Six:—Your letter just received and I am glad to know that you have ‘taken some action in the matter as 1 felt sure.you had or would. Tt seems to me, in view of the fact that the offensive literature to which refergnce is made is a batch of lies al least so far as it relates to “colored troops in Germany” and is in a fair ‘way to create mob disturbance in thi: city if its distribution is not stopped very soon, that you might invoke the aid of the law that enabled the po- lice to stop the showing of the John- son-Jeffries fight motion-pictures, sev- ea years ago, on the ground that ‘their showing might have a tendency to promote mob violence. This is a local matter for the handling of which local tax-payers who have “to foot the bill” in case of death or destruction of property, ete. by the mob, look to the police and the Department of Public Safety and very properly, too. The power of the U. S- Department) of Justice is possibly limited, as Mr. Bliss Morton indicated, but there is no such limitation on our local police, for reasons intimated’ if not plainly stated in the foregoing. The Johnson-Jeffries fight motion-pic- tures were stopped and so can the dis- tribution of the maliciously mob in- citing literature referred to, and I sincerely trust that you will act and promptly, to this end. Respectfully yours, Harry C. Smith. In addition to the foregoing, a copy of which was sent to Mayor FitzGer- ald and Director of Public Safety Sprosty, we desire to call the mayor's attention to the fact that our people of this community are not going to forget before next fall's election any failure on his part to do his clear duty in this matter. It rests with him, as THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, MARCH 5, 1921. well as with Director Sprosty and Chief Smith, as to whether or not the distribution of that slanderous and mob inciting literature is to be Promptly stopped. THEY HAVE THE POWER TO DO IT—if they want to invoke it, AND THEY KNOW IT. ‘There have been no “colored troops in Germany” for more than seven months. This fact has been published broadeast thruout this country for many weeks and still that insulting vicious and outrageous German propa- ganda Kterature is permitted to be distributed in various parts of the country. Why? Have Americans (white) grown so great a love for that country and its people, all at once? But a few months ago, they were in- sulting, abusing and cursing Germans indiscriminately. Now in many cities, ete., they ‘are permitting German. Americans, at the behest of Germans in “the old country,” to do much the same thing for Afro-Americans, thou- sands upon thousands of whom were in France, members of the A. E, F., and thousands are still there “sleeping where poppies grow.” Lord, have merey! Even Germans who were on the Rhine, early last year, when the Colored French troops were quartered there deay, and most emphatically, ‘too, the lying reports, being circulated now, that any of their women were assaulted or outraged in any way by ‘those troops.

"Negroes" from the South have been encouraged by prejudiced whites to start a "jim crow" school in the Columbus Hill district, N. Y. City. This was done in the same way they encourage our people to do something of the sort in other cities—always with the race in promoting the segregation of the race. It has been done in City, Philadelphia, Chicago, Columbus, Dayton and many other places we could mention. Prejudiced whites begin by getting ignorant, credulous, selfish or just naturally "jim crow" Negroes to urge a "jim crow" hospital, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., or something of the kind, and the rest of the way to "jim crow" schools is comparatively easy because "jim crow" feeds upon itself and grows O, so rapidly in almost any community in the North, these days. The opening of a "jim crow" hospital in Cleveland, or any other place, will practice discrimination and community to our people, just as it does in every other community. And out population has grown so in recent years, it is a question if one hospital would accommodate our sick who need such service.

PROFIT SHARING IN AGRICULTURE FARMER IN CAPE COLONY IN TRODUCES SYSTEM WITH NATIVE LABORERS AND ACHIEVES GRATIFYING RESULTS PRODUCTION INCREASES. Laborers Show New Interest In Them They Are Obliged To They Are Obliged To LONDON, England—To those who are in favor of giving their employees a share of the profit in agriculture, or in any other kind of business, the results of an experiment made by Mr. John Bickerdyke, a farmer in the Western Province of Cape Colony, will be of special interest. In the Cape Times, Mr. Bickerdyke tells how he was led to begin a system of profit sharing with his native laborers, and something of the results that enused. "It is a sort of proverb in the Cape," he says, "that the Dutch-speaking farmers know better than anyone else how to handle natives, and for the first year I adopted local methods. That is to say, I hardly spoke to a man except to give him an order, and either supervised work myself or had an assistant to do it. At the end of the first year, during which very much could be done very little coming in, I reviewed the whole position, and came to the conclusion that the most important thing on the farm, viz., the labor, was very unsatisfactory. The men were civil and obedient, certainly, but listless, showing no interest in their work, and not doing any more than they were obliged to." As the result of a good deal of thought Mr. Bickerdyke called his boys together, told them that he was going to treat them as free men, that that he expected to get honest work from them in return for the wages paid to them, that he would trust them, and that if he could not run his farm on these lines he would give up farming. His offer to share profits and how it was received may best be told in the farmer's own words. "If they were good to me and acted honestly, intended to give them a share in the produce of the farm, and if they did not under these new conditions do their best to make the farm a success they would be, in my opinion, the stupidest boys in Cape Colony. For every lamb or young pig that reached the age of three months they would get 6d, for every bull calf 2s. 6d, for every cow calf 5s, for every mule 10s, for every horse, whee, rye or oats, 4d, 4h, and 4d, respectively; and when my young vine and fruit rices came into bearing, they would get their share of that profit also. On each dozen eggs or pound of butter they would get id. All these sums would be lumped together and divided equally among them at Christmas, except that the small boys would have one man's share divided among them. "This gift, for so I preferred to call it at the outset of the experiment, would be dependent on good behavior, and no boy would be entitled to anything if he left me bore Christmas. The boys, from the old shepherd down to the stable lad, listened attentively and gravely—at first looking somewhat puzzled, then amazed, and lastly their white teeth gleamed as delighted smiles showed on their faces when they realized that they really were to have an interest in the produce of the farm, and were to be treated as men, rather than as mules or oxen. On the outcome Mr. Bickerdykey says: "It is extremely pleasing to set and record the results far exceeded my expectations. It will have been noted that each boy was rewarded, not for the success of his own particular department, but in respect of the farm generally; and, as I had anticipated, this led to every man becoming interested in the entire work of the farm, besides giving me of his best in his own department. Eggs are things on which a heavy toil is levied, for farm chickens lay all over the place. Many of their nests are discovered by the boys' children and the contents taken to the cottages. Now the very first thing I noticed after our indaba was that wuy hens had apparently begun to lay uncommonly well, and I drew my own conclusions. The shepherd who had been good before be came better, calamity of sheep left wuy and killed them rarely occurred. There came a record lambing season; mule breeding, which had at first been rather a feature, began to improve; right through the stock there were fewer losses, and cases of illness were immediately reported to me and much loss avoided. BREAK INTO JAIL MARIETTA, O.—Booze isn't safe been worse if it is looked in. here even if it is locked in jail. Chief Bush of Williamstown, W. Va., just across the Ohio river from this city, made the discovery recently when he went to the village jail to inspect a rich haul made by two Marietta detectives and himself. Thirty-two cases of good whisky were on a truck which three men attempted to smuggle into West Virginia from Marietta. The coppers used the liquor in the letter was held in the Williamstown jail and the men locked up here. But someone reversed the usual order of things and broke into the jail. It's dry now.

Baseball throughout the country, during the 1921 season, promises to show continued growth in popularity, which has been a consistent feature of the national game since the close of the World War. Last season, new attendance figures were made and off season indications are that the records of 1920 will be easily surpassed, next summer, which leads to the ques- Cleveland, Feb. 19, '21. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Edicts, Editors. My Dear Editor:—The attention of the people of the City of Cleveland has been called through the columns of The Gazette to a proposed plan for a "colored" hospital. This plan, as published, has apparently received the endorsement of the majority of Cleveland colored physicians. We do not stand in the position to condemn one for his individual idea on matters of public moment as concerning the race, for environment has created for many of us our thinking and ideas on matters of race import. But as a part and parcel of the citizens of the city of Cleveland, we must stand firmly by and guard those rights and privileges which have been ours for the time past. The Gazette has stood stolidly and unequivocally opposed to any movement which seeks to foster race separation. A hospital for "Negroes" in the city of Cleveland is a further step to other institutions of a separate nature and a warning further of "crackerdom" in Cleveland from which thousands sought the northern clime as a haven. Sincerely, Geo. C. Sutton, M. D., 10566 Cedar Ave. Dear Sir;—With reference to the proposed Lincoln Hospital, I wish it distinctly understood that I am not in favor of the establishment of a Colored Hospital, by physicians. I signed the petition as presented to me by Dr. Joe T. Thomas because I was of the opinion that public sentiment was in favor of the plan, and not desiring to stand in the way of the majority, I acquiesced. Now, however, since the publication of the plan the scheme has been labeled as an effort of "Negro physicians" and not "a public movement," I desire to withdraw my support from the venture. (Signed) Oliver A. Taylor, M. D., Central Ave. and East 49th St. LET ME HELP YOU. Pioneers Lose! To the Public tion: "Where will the club owners put the fans who desire to pass through the turnicles if baseball continues its growth in popularity? Among our people baseball has grown in favor, year by year, until now it is a profitable business. Last year, the Western circuit of colored clubs, with only six home parks, played to 616,000 paid admissions. Out of a total population of around 5,216,000, our people only represent six per cent. of the total in the six western cities, and as our patronage is generally considered as being at least four-fifths of the above admissions, the figures prove beyond peradventure the solid facts of our established desire to see our diamond athletes in action. In such a baseball loving city as Cleveland, where 35,000 of our people reside, there is no question but that Messra Tate, Lewis and their associates, in satisfying our oft-repeated desire for a fine team and park, will be wonderfully successful.

Jealous of His Own Women! But Fond of the Women of Other Races. ‘That Is the Case of the Composite American “Anglo-Saxon” Lust Crazed Brutes New York City.—H. Paulens San- non, former Haitian Minister to the United States, and Stenio Vincent, one time cha‘rman of the Haitian Senate, arrived, Feb. 12, to plead the cause of the Haitian people and to urge a Congrensional investigation of Amer- jean occupation of the island. M. San- non and M. Vineent charged that the court of inquiry sent to Haiti, last autumn, by Josephus Daniels, Secre- tary of the Navy, was “a humbug” and ‘a joke.” ‘The two Haitians say they come to the United States not as representatives of the Haitian Gov- ernment but of the people. They come as the delerates of the Patriotic Union of Port au Prince to tell the American people just what the Ma- rine Corps has done in the South At- Jantie island and to ask that the mili- tary and naval forces be evacuated. To See President Harding M, Sannon and M. Vineent are stop- ping ter»porarily in the Union Souare Hotel, but they will proceed to Wash- ington to seek interviews with the leaders of both the House and the Senate. It is their intention, if pos. sible. personally to lay the cause of the Haitian people before President- elect Harding after the inauguration. “We have come to the United States,” M. Sannon said, “to say most emphatically that the naval court of inquiry presided over by Admiral Marry T, Mayo and sent by Mr. Dan- fels 40 Haiti was merely a comedy. ‘The court went down there to make ‘an appearance of investigation on two or thres cases where some American officers were ‘concerned. So the court called witnesses for evidence only in these’ cares. ' Investigation Prearranged “Tt seems that things were prear- ranged. Everybody else was refused a hearing by the court. Tt did not mat- ‘ter that the same. offender had other (Special to The Gazette) In the first place, the so-called race prejudice of America is not genuine but in a great measure, a make-believe. ‘The composite “Anglo-Saxon” male has regarded it as his right to mingle with the females of any race without be- ing called upon to atone for it. He has done this wherever he has been ‘and no race has remained pure where this “master of sex passion” has had access to its women. The colored race is an evidence of this fact. The “Anglo-Saxon” male has not been loyal to his own sex-relations within his own race. ‘The laws of God and state Lave not been able to restrain him. Where he seriously objects is when males of other races seek the same privilege with females of “An- glo-Saxon” lineage. The fondness of “Angle-Soxon” males for the females of other races has had a reaction within the circle of his own women. ‘The outburst and abuse, heaped upon other races by “Anglo-Saxon” propa- ganda, has been primarily to create ‘within the minds of “Anglo Saxon” females an aversion for other races, especially the males. Separateness of the races has proved a failure in ‘America. In fact there is no such thing as separateness. Throughout, the southern states, where separate cars are maintained, this separateness is only for the colored. White men have access to the colored car when- ever they desire. Attractive looking, colored women are exposed to the Justy passion and insult of lust-crazed white brutes and that, too, without: redress. The long years of ‘residence| in America of white and black races have shewn that this race-hatred pro- gram is a veritable sham. Its lines are broken down every day and the fault lies not on any one race. Under Face prejudice the whites of this na- tion have lived lives of hypoerisy, andy sin, They preach race-hatred and se- gregation during the day and live the contrary during the night. ‘The world| has seen through this sereen of hypoc- risy and looks upon America as a na- tion of kypoerites when their actions and deeds belie their words and re- ligion. Whites in thfs country have attempted to control, by statute and deception, the laws of human attrac- tions for each other and have failed. ‘The attempt of American to get the nations of the world to share with them in this fiasco, has also signally failed. If on the other hand all races were taught the highest virtues and schooled in the purest relations with each other, there would not. be half ef the adulteration within the races gs now exists. When man is taught to respect woman for what she is— the pure mother of God's generations —then there will cease to exist that inordinate = to make her the mother of illicit relations. Unfortu. nately for white women of America, their men have made a propaganda of ‘them, using unfrequent occurences of charges preferred against him. Take, for instance, the case of Lieut. Lang. He was charged with having shot sev- eral prisoners in the jail at Hinche. While the court was investigating these charges a notable Haitian wrote to the court that Lieut. Lang had hanged his brother at Mirebalais, but the court did not take up this charge.” —M. Sannon charges that the court never went near Mirebalais, Hinche or ‘Las Cahobas, “where the reign of ter- ror caused the most terrible damage in human life and property.” The former Minister says Gen. Barnett, former head of the United States Ma- rine Corps, was eorrect when he stated there had ‘been indiscriminate killing (8250) in, Haiti, Methods of Torture M, Sunnon added that tortures such ‘as the water cure, hanging and elec- trocution “have been perpetuated on the peaceful people.” He declared it ‘would be interesting to know why the court of inquiry never left Port au Prince in the three weeks it remained “in the island. M. Sannon said the [Haitian people have sulflered greatly during the Wilson Administration be- cause the President has made it a practice to send mostly southerners, who have an inborn dislike. for Ne- ‘roes, to the island, Another thing ‘to which M. Sannon took exception ras the assertion made by Franklin D. Roosevelt during the recent cam- paign that he had written the Haitian constitution and had made a pretty ‘rood Jol of it.” “What the Haitian people-want, ac- cording to M. Sannon, is, first,” im- mediate suppression of military ‘courts; second, reorganization of the \Haitian military and police forces and the evticuation of the’ American forees of oceupation, and, thirdly, the con- Vocation at the earliest possible mo- ment of & constitutional assembly. es Ey \ Ss Dr. William ae Byrd. reason of the underlying hypocrisy that has characterized it in its deal- ings with other races. America gives large rums to evangelize the world but this money is erippled by the un- Christianed and prejudiced lives of American Christians. Governments do pot take America’s word at one hun- dred per cent worth while, but dis- count it fifty per cent. The swagger and impudence of America, to suggest to other nations to adopt the policy it has with other races, have caused Americans to be ignored and treated as unworthy of serious consideration in such matters. All the laws of America are in danger of this virus of race-meiudice. For fifty years this American Government has belied the work of Abraham Lincoln, ‘The laws of America have been used to foster race-prejudice. Congress has been the dirty nest from which the ugly ver- min of race-prejudice have come. America should not let race-prejudice be its undoing. Rev.) Wm. A.

The reason is because the fire insurance companies charge higher rates in towns where there are fire whistles. ‘The companies declare that ¢ whistle is an added risk, because telephone patrons will call up to learn the location of the fire when the near the whistle, and the work of calling the firemen— yolunteers—is greatly _ delayed, often resulting in heavy losses. eretererverscessooses setts THE MAN WHO DARES. “1 honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, in- tolerant judgment, may ‘con- demn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends ‘grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.”— Charles Sumner. “HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT.” My ear is pained My soul iz sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled.
