THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE ASSISTS NEW YORK WORLD IN KU KLUX KLAN EXPOSE VOL. XXVII. NATIONAL ASSOC ADVANCEMENT OF ASSISTS NEW IN KU KLUX JAMES Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, today made the following statement: Just one year ago one of the staff officers of the National Association wrote a letter to the headquarters of the Ku Klux Klan in Atlanta and in reply received an application for membership blank and some other literature of the Klan. This was the beginning of the fight which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has kept up against the Ku Klux Klan ever since. After considerable correspondence, we secured enough information regarding the Klan to give wide spread publicity to it and to show its real purposes. We placed the evidence that we had gathered into the hands of the Mayor of the City of New York, Governor of New York State, Police Commissioner of New York and the District Attorney's Office, and also into the hands of the Department of Justice at Washington. Later a member of our office staff made the trip to Ocoee, Florida and investigated the Ku Klux Klan riots in that town in which twenty-five to forty colored people were killed. The first mass meeting in New York against the Ku Klux Klan was held under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People on the 3rd of January. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has not only fought the Ku Klux Klan from its National Office and through its branches by publicity, by mass meetings and by appealing to the authorities, it has also fought the Klan as it is glorified in the infamous moving picture—"The Birth of A Nation". In return the Klan through its organ, The Searchlight, launched a vicious attack against the N. A. A. C. P., and used every means in its power to intimidate members of the Association in the South. This fight of a year waged by the Association has at last borne fruit and the battle has been taken up by a great and powerful champion, The New York World. And The World is dealing the Ku Klux Klan its death blow. Twenty other prominent newspapers in various sections of the country are associated with The World in giving publicity to the inside workings of this nefarious organization. About a little more than two months ago a representative of The World came into the National Office of the Association and told us plans for an investigation and expose which his paper was undertaking and asked us to furnish him with all the data and information possible. Our office immediately placed at his disposal its files of data, information and documents relating to the Ku Klux Klan. We are glad that we were able to render this assistance to The World in the great fight which it is carrying on. The World is performing a great service not only to the Negro but to the State Hist. & Nut Hist Goo State House THE ONLY RELIANCE NATION FOR THE COLORED PEOPLE YORK WORLD KLAN EXPOSE nation because in stamping out the Ku Klux Klan, it is conserving its institutions of law and order. The World merits the appreciation of the whole country and especially of the colored people because the destruction of the Ku Klux Klan means more to them than to anybody else. In addition the New York American has begun the publication of a series of articles exposing the Klan. The articles are written, by C. Anderson Wright, former King Kleagle of the Invisible Empire of the Ku Klux Klan. In the issue of the American of September 16, Mr. Wright made the following disclosure regarding the policy of the Klan toward the N. A. A. C. P. Fear Negro Power. "Another subject of serious discussion was the realization that the power of the Negro society known as the Society for the Advancement of Colored People was becoming a great menace in the expansion of the Ku Klux Klan, as it was continually giving to the press publicity on the Klan's underhanded methods. This society was getting active in State legislative work, having already succeeded in having introduced by a Negro legislator from Chicago, a bill denouncing the Klan in the Illinois Legislature. This bill was passed. It made an appeal to the citizens of Illinois to refrain from joining or associating in any manner with the Ku Klux Klan. This activity on the part of the Negro, in the judgment of Clarke, warranted prompt action; and it was decided to set up a rival organization to the Society for the Advancement of Colored People without delay. Clarke began with a Negro in his own employ, a man of unusual intelligence, who was in charge of the servants on his farm on the outskirts of Atlanta. This servant enlisted the services of other Negroes as spies, and they attended the meetings of the society and reported everything that was said and done. Also these spies sought to create dissatisfaction and discord among the members of the society. This Negro phase of the Klan's activities I shall deal with in another article." LITTLE LIBERIA DEALS HARSHLY WITH KU KLUX. African Republic Declares Martial Law In Force and Mobilizes Regiment. EIGHTY-SIX ARRESTTED. Will Be Tried Before Military Courts For Many Secret Murders. Monrovia, Liberia, Sept. 3.—There is a Ku Klux Klan here in Liberia and the Government deals harshly with it. According to the current issue of the Liberian News, secretary of State, Edwin Barclay, acting for President King, who is an American, issued a proclamation recently suspending the writ of habeas corpus and declaring a certain part of Grand Bassa County under martial law. Fourteen School Buildings Dedicated to Public Education in Fayette County, Tennessee Mr. Julius Rosenwald, Philanthropist, Helps Negroes Build Public Schoolhouses at a Cost of $50,000. SOMERVILLE, Tenn. Sept. 14.—For the past ten days, Fayette County has been blessed with an unusual educational campaign. Beginning Monday, September 5, fourteen rural schoolhouses for Negroes in Fayette County and one in Hardeman County have been dedicated with fitting programs. The principal speakers in these programs were Mr. Clinton J. Calloway of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, who is Field Agent for Rosenwald Schools; Mr. W. P. Ware, principal of the Fayette County Training School, Somerville; Bishop J. F. Lane of Lane College, Jackson, Tennessee; Miss R. E. Davis, District Home Demonstration Agent for West Tennessee; M. A. F. Ward, Cashier of the Fraternal Savings Bank, Memphis, Tennessee; Mr. W. R. Davis, Negro Farm Demonstration Agent for Fayette County, and Mr. Geo. P. Mays, Field Representative of the Fraternal Savings Bank, Memphis, Tennessee. Mr. Calloway, the principal speaker on each occasion, stressed the importance of longer school terms, regularity in attendance by the children, and a liberal use of the schoolhouse by the parents in holding their community meetings. Fayette County is purely rural with a population of 27,000 Negroes, 9,000 of whom are school age. Hardeman County Training School, 14 miles from the Fayette County Training School, was dedicated by a party of speakers on September 13, County Superintendent M. L. Hardin, with other white citizens, was present and in a very pleasing address, assured the colored people of the county that the Board of Education stands ready to lend a hand in making the school what it should be. This building is of brick and cost $20,000. The colored people, by private subscription, contributed $7,000 of this amount. Wednesday, September 14, the Fayette County Training School was dedicated. County Superintendent J. B. Summers, in a very strong address, assured the large gathering of people that the Board of Education stands back of them; and is actively interested in having comfortable and sufficient schools for all children in the County. Mrs. W. P. Ware, the Jeanes Fund Supervisor, expressed great satisfaction at the evident influence of these new school buildings, in making the rural people happy and satisfied to live on the farm and work out the community building problem in an intelligent and satisfying manner. The second Liberian regiment has been mobilized and is now in camp in the County to enforce martial law. Eighty-six persons have been arrested and brought to court martial and most of them found guilty of murder in the first and second degree. Several former Americans are among the number. Under the law, all guilty persons shall suffer death by being shot and their property confiscated by the state. James W. Cooper, secretary of war, has taken charge, personally, of the affected districts. All of the criminals are members of the Negro and Human Leopard Societies, who have murdered and terrorized thousands of peaceful Liberian citizens and interfered with trade and commerce. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 1921 SCARBOROUGH IN ROME WITH EIGHT PRELATES WKITTING from Rome, Italy, under date of August 26th, Professor William S, Scarborough, former president of Wilberforce University, Ohio, tells interestingly of his European experiences. His letter is as follows: Hotel Quirinal, Rome. "I am now in Rome and am sending you and the readers of The Age greeting from the Eternal City. I came on from Paris here and will remain a few days before going to Venice, Florence, Milan, etc., etc. This is my second trip to Rome and much of the ground is familiar to me. Mrs. Scarborough and I came here some years ago and stopped at the Grand Continental Hotel. I am now at the Quirinal and like it very much. Some white Americans are here, but they seem to accept the situation. They did it in Paris and at times were very sociable. "In Leamington, England, however, I met at the hotel a different type, and they seemed ill at ease and Inclined to complain. I paid no attention to them. There were about a hundred of them on a pilgrimage to Shakespeare's home—Stratford on the Avon—which was my destination also. These small Negro-hating people are as thick as bees. In London I am at the Hotel Cecil where I shall remain as long as I am in London, and so have the opportunity of seeing them. "In the group that I am with here in Rome we have three A. M. E. bishops and five Zion bishops. The party numbers twenty-one. Mrs. Coppin is with Bishop C., and Mr. Watson of Georgia has his wife with him, too. Bishop Hurst and wife are in Paris. Dr. DuBois was there when we left for Rome."—New York Age. English Labor Party Committee Promises Aid to Cause of Negro. THE National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, announced today a conference of Dr. DuBois, Editor of the Crisis, and Secretary of the Pan African Congress, and Walter F. White, Assistant Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P, with the Advisory Committee of the English Labor Party at their headquarters in Eccleston square. The conference was presided over by Sidney Webb, and among those present were Leonard Woolf, the Rev. Hon. J. H. Clynes, the Labor Party leader in Parliment; Mrs. Philip Snowden, whose new book, "A Political Pilgrim in Europe", is arousing much comment; Sir George Fordham; Dr. Bentham, John H. Harris of the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society, Charles R. Buxton, Dr. Norman Leys, who spent sixteen years in British West Africa, Dr. Norman Angell, John H. Gillies, J. H. Jowett. Dr. DuBois ably presented the case of the Negro workman, emphasizing the imperative necessity of labor being united, and stating that as long as organized labor attempted to solve only the problem of white workmen, failure was inevitable, and that "until all labor is free, no labor is free." A Spirited Discussion Followed. Speaking on behalf of the committee "A FOOL THERE WAS, AND HE UTTERED A PRAYER, EVEN AS YOU AND I" ONE of the most flagrant abuses to which our common country fell heir during the high tide of war prosperity was the tendency to speculate, to take a chance as it were. Money was plentiful and high wages almost intoxicating. Every class of people were caught in the dizzy whirl and every one saw a fortune awaiting just beyond their grasp. The Promoters Harvest. Then it was that the curb-stone broker got busy. The ever-ready smooth tongued promoter was on the job. Visions of high mounting wealth were held up before the public and many people were induced to withdraw their savings from a bank to invest in stocks afterward proven to absolutely useless. Everybody had a scheme, some good, some very bad. The Wild Cat Era. This made it easy for the unscrupulous wild cat promoter to peddle his wares and find soft pickings among willing victims. The pity of it all is that there was no definite line of demarcation drawn between an individual or group of men who had something worth while to promote, and the unscrupulous individual or group of men whose only offering would be a brightly hued stock certificate. There can be little doubt but what this method, of playing fast and loose with the people's confidences and their purses has wrought unlimited damage to Colorado and other western states. Investment in worthless securities deals a black eye to any community or organization. Then, again, this method of procedure is no respecter of persons or conditions. It sometimes takes the last dollar of a widow or an aged person. What matters the misery and suffering of the credulous, if only the promoter can "put something over." A Halt Called. In recent months, however, there has been a notable business depression envelop the country. We have come Sidney Webb stated that the Labor Party wishes first to be kept informed of all matters affecting colored labor which can and should be brought to Parliament for action, and second, that they pledge themselves to lend any assistance possible towards the removal of the color bar in labor and elsewhere, whether in England or other countries. In view of the fact that it is largely believed that the Labor Party within a short time will be the most dominant factor in England, and within a few years is likely to be in control of the Government, its attitude in the matter of Negro labor is most important. A second conference was held by Dr. DuBois, Mr. White, Dr. Alcindor and Mr. Broadhurst, President and Secretary respectively of the African Progress Union of London, with the representatives of the Anti-Slavery Society. In attendance were Sir Sidney Oliver, K. C. M. G., former governor-general of Jamica, who presided E. Wright Brookes, J. P., Lady Scott, Rev. C. E. C. Lefroy, Leland W. Buxton, Arthur H. Loring, H. J. Ogden, Mrs. King Lewis, Travers Buxton, and John H. Harris. The Anti-Slavery Society presented tentative resolutions which they wished the Pan African Congress to consider. The resolutions on land and labor were accepted but one on conscription in which they condemned the action of France in using Senegalese and Morrocan troops in Germany was rejected. Dr. DuBois in the discussion scathingly condemned so-called philanthropic organizations which believe in working for the natives in Africa and refuse, meanwhile, to work with Africans. Mr. White presented to the Society the matter of lynching in America and the need of protest on the part of Englishmen. Ways and means of best accomplishing this were suggested, and in this work the support of the Anti-Slavery Society was pledged. NO 50 down to earth. Those who a few months ago could qualify under Kipling's observation, "A fool there was and he uttered a prayer, Even as you and I," have now come into their better senses. Experience, bitter experience, has brought home to them the severe realization that there must be a greater vigilance exercised to protect the public against operations of the shrewd, conscienceless promoter and, incidentally, to render a definite service to legitimate enterprises. We have passed through a wonderful prosperous era; we are now entering the encircling gloom of hard times. The vast amount of money lost in fake securities then would be a welcome boon now. And yet our lesson seems not to be wholly learned. There are still breakers ahead. The Small Bore Faker. Operating upon a somewhat smaller scale and lacking of much of the cock sureness of the oil salesman, the stock promoter and insurance agent, we now have the church slicctr and fraternal salesman, who is now content to take up "the small change." It is fully as reprehensible, as full of fraud, deception and cunning as the larger movement. There is this essential difference, however, which makes it worse in many respects. In the larger promotion schemes the investor hoped to realize generously from his investment. He gambled with chance. He bucked the fates. In the smaller appeals his good nature yields to false representation. He feels he is helping a worthy cause contributing to a worthy effort. He sees a struggling people and thinks his small subscription is to be honestly applied. In the first instance he is the victim of greed, in the second a dupe of sentiment. An if there was need of curbing the one, of calling a halt, it is imperative that a similar action must be taken in the other. There are in this country many worthy organizations whose purposes are clean, whose ideals are lofty and uplifting. Certainly, we of the colored race, oppressed, discriminated against and maltreated, cannot countenance any thing that savors of fake. We cannot and must not and shall not stoop to the low level of skinning the public. We have too much at stake. We have a worthy cause and can only serve it by worthy effort. To turn solicitors loose in a community with a frantic appeal as false as Lucifer is to drop to the abyss of criminality but little removed from the hold-up. The safety, security and up-building of a people abides in the righteousness of its cause and the sublimity of its aims. A dollar secured by mis-representation today may be the curse of tomorrow. Protect Yourself. Those who would see a worthy cause rendered worthless by deception, would jeopardize the future for the present, must be brought to account as surely as the fake promoter or dishonest speculative genius. We must speak out, our duty is plain. Let none abide with us whose leadership means disaster. The world is calling for individual and group cleanliness. Every effort must bear the impress of honesty. It is the only means by which we can succeed. This week the better business bureau is holding a convention in Denver. Let us look well to its deliberations for we are sorely in need of better business methods. It offers as its motto, "Before you invest—investigate." Only the fool of whom Kipling sung, would object to its exactions. Submit to the strong searchlight of publicity, for it is your only security. It may be next to impossible to wholly protect the fool and his money, but the effort is worth while.

THE CREAT ORCAN | MEADE MEMORIAL THING OF BEAUTY STATUE SOON TO BE PLACED IN THE BOTANICAL GARDENS IN WASHINGTON. COMPARES WELL WITH ANY Figure of the Battle of Gettysburg Victor, Made by Charles Groelys, is of Heroic Size, Surrounded by Allegorical Figures. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—What is conceded to be one of the handsomest works of art of its kind ever erected in the District of Columbia, is the Mende Memorial, which will be placed in position in the botanic gardens shortly. This tribute to Maj. Gen. George G. Meade, who commanded the army of the Potomac at the battle of Gettysburg, is to be in the form of a white stone statue of heroic size and with an elaborate base. It will serve as a companion piece to the Grant memorial in the botanic gardens. Col. Clarence O. Sherrill, superintendent of public buildings and grounds, is of the opinion that the the Meade memorial will compare favorably with any park statue anywhere in the world. It is the work of Charles Groslys of Gloucester, Mass., designer and sculptor, who has worked for more than six years on the creation of the statue. He already has started cutting the statue from stone, following designs submitted and approved by the fine arts commission, and in the meantime the work of constructing the base in the botanic gardens is under way. Will Portray Virtues. Will Portray Virtues. In describing the memorial, Colonel Sherrill said: "The problem provoked by the chosen site for the Meade memorial dictated a form which should be equal in interest and fulness of workmanship from every vantage point. Working upon this basis, the artist conceived a circle of figures which should embody the qualities which are essential to the character of a great general. These six qualities—Military Courage, Energy, Fame, Loyalty, Chivalry and Progress—while recognizing their origin in the spirit of war, look toward General Meade as the composite of their several virtues. "The figure of General Meade is thus rendered the center of the artistic design, and the focal point in the imaginative conception. He stands, his work accomplished, ready to step forth from the cloak of battle into the future era of progress. Chivalry (at his right) and Loyalty (at his left), hold back the cloak, while Loyalty also raises aloft over Meade's head a standard of wreath and garlands, in commemoration of a great achievement. Fame and Progress occupy the central position (right and left) on either side of the group. Progress Shown Ideal. "The figure of Progress, on the other hand, is dynamic in the strength of its own potentialities. It is a figure which more nearly approximates the ideal, and which will gather from its own being the wings of action. To its left, Military Courage clings with bulldog tenacity to the dominant figure of the rear group, War, from which it takes its being. To the left of War, the figure of Energy yielding to the urge of Fame, loosens his grasp upon the arm of War, aquiver for the greater achievement yet to come. War, itself, occupying the central position in the rear group, a massive architectural figure, unchanging and unchanged since war first ravaged the world, holds in his grim clutch two memorial tablets. His wings, in long sweeping curves, stretch toward the standard which Loyalty holds above the head of Meade. The side groups are thus outlined against the ominous shadow of the wings of War. "From the grim determination of Military Courage through the figure of Energy to the figures of Chivalry and Loyalty, the urge is onward and forward toward Progress and Fame, which, alone, of the group have the power to move with General Mende into the accomplishment of the future. Although his dark wings may carry him through other ages and other lands, War will ever remain the same, unchanging. But the great general will move forward, leaving behind him the static, symbolized in the figures of war and of military courage. The command is 'forward!' "Lost Battalion" Is Found. A "lost battalion" of marines, six officers and 274 men, has been formally found by the Navy department. Since August, 1917, the battalion has been stationed at Camaguey, Cuba, in the very heart of the island, with no apparent reason for its being kept or such an assignment since the days of the war. The discovery of the "missing" marines was made by Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, after dint of much searching of records and inquiry among marine officers. The hunt was started as the result of the recent incident in Camaguey when marines kicked up some excitement in the Cuba town after Le Roy Foster, an American engineer and former navy officer had been attacked and beaten by Cubans. "What are the marines doing in Camaguey?" Mr. Roosevelt asked himself, after looking at the map of Cuba. And the question was asked by others equally curious. Nobody seemed to know. Major General Lejuene, commandant of the corps said they were there all right, but could vouchsafe no additional information. The navy list showed marine officers regularly assigned to the Camaguey post, but the warrant for such duty seemed to be lacking. Sent to Guard Sugar Properties. Sent to Guard Sugar Properties. Finally red-taped papers were found which showed that, back in 1917, shortly after Cuba entered the war on the heels of the United States, the Cuban government had requested the State department to permit the stationing of American marines at Camaguey to guard the great sugar properties there against pro-German plots. The American government, anxious to conserve the sugar supply, sent the marines from the Guantanamo naval base, and there they have been ever since. Only diplomatic negotiations probably can remove them. The Navy department and the marine corps will see that they are there until called off by the President. Nurses' Training School. Uncle Sam has just inaugurated a training school for nurses. The courses will be for four years, and the training will be under the direct supervision of the United States public health service, with headquarters in this city. Among the inducements to young women to enroll is the government's guarantee to house, feed and train them, besides the payment of $30 a month during the first three years, and $40 a month during the final year. The students also will be presented with diplomas when they become proficient, and will be given opportunities to assist in caring for disabled military patients. The first schools are at Fort McHenry, Baltimore, and at Fox Hills, Staten Island. Other schools will be opened later in the year, and they will be conducted at certain hospitals of the public health service. Increase of Pellagra. Despite the indignant denials of some of the southern states, it appears likely that there will be a decided increase in the extent of pelagra in the South this year. Surgeon General Cumming, head of the public health service, recently sent to President Harding a letter which, it is declared, confirms this view. The letter recounts that the conference of health officials which met recently in Washington had objected principally to the allegation that pelagra was on the increase, and that the increase was caused by a "famine." "In so far as the use of the word 'famine' is concerned," Doctor Cumming wrote, "the public health service pointed out that it had used the term in a scientific, restricted sense, referring to a diet which lacked some essential elements of nutrition." Doctor Cumming remarked that the state health officers present at the conference had voted against the following clause in a resolution submitted by one of their members: "We do not regard the situation in any sense as more serious than in the last several years." Marked Increases Shown. The letter said that, with the exception of Mississippi, no reliable morbidity statistics were available from the South, but that Mississippi figures showed pellagra had doubled in that state in the first six months of 1921. A memorandum was attached to the White House statement embodying the letter from Doctor Cumming, as follows: "Information indicates a definite increase of pellagra this year in Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Texas and probably North and South Carolina. Some evidence also indicates an increase in Georgia. In Kentucky and Virginia, testimony points to a decrease. Conservative estimates indicate 5,000 deaths and 100,000 cases of pellagra in the country in 1921." Doctor Cumming said it had been brought out that, in various localities in the South, conditions were such that the essential foods required to prevent the development of pellagra were obtainable only with difficulty and in some instances were entirely beyond the reach of the poorer working people. He explained that this situation had been brought about largely by the custom of one-crop farming. Helping With Proper Food. "It was gratifying to learn of the progress made largely through the efforts of the Department of Agriculture to bring about greater diversity in farm crops," the letter continued. "The home demonstration agents have repeatedly pointed out the un wisdom of farming only a single staple crop, while relying on the income from this to purchase necessary elements of diet, such as fresh vegetables, milk eggs, chickens and fresh ments. "Moreover, the fact was brought out that, although there has been some increase in dairying in the South, yet as a result of the recent depression many a struggling farmer in a mistaken sense of economy, has disposed of the family cow, a most important agent in pellagra prevention. "The object aimed at by the public health service," Doctor Cumming told the President, "has undoubtedly been brought much nearer to attainment as a result of the splendid support given by your letter. It is gratifying to report that all the states feel able to meet any demands for emergency relief, without requiring any outside assistance, although requests were made that expert assistants be detailed from the public health service to the varlous state health offices." TO INVESTIGATE KU KLUX KLAN SENATORS DISCUSS CHARGE9 AGAINST SECRET ORDER. TO GRILL OFFICIALS ATTORNEY GENERAL DAUGHER TY TO SUMMON OFFICIALS OF KU KLUX KLAN. Washington.—High officials of the Ku Klux Klan may be summoned to Washington for interrogation by the Department of Justice, Attorney General Daugherty indicated here. Director.—cums of the department's bureau of investigation, Mr. Daugherty announced, has been instructed to set his agents at work on an investigation of the klan's organization in various parts of the country. The attorney general said that any criminal prosecutions, for the most part, would be matters of state law unless there had been some violations of the federal statutes through the use of the mails to defraud. There is no need in this country, Daugherty says, for vigilance organizations. The country does not need, he adds, any self-constituted organizations to define and enforce the laws for American citizens. The Ku Klux Klan and religious intolerance entered into debate in the Senate during discussion of the beer bill. Senator Watson, Democrat, Georgia, asserted religious liberty had not been secured in the United States under the charter granted Lord Baltimore, while Senator Stanley, Democrat, Kentucky, insisted that "there was only one place in all the civilized world where man could worship his God at the dictates of his conscience, and that was in the province of the Catholic nobleman, Lord Baltimore." "I am here to fight intolerance, whether it whets its knife and lights its torch in a Ku Klux camp in Georgia or whether in western Ohio it takes the form of these miserable general warrants," added Senator Stanley, referring in the latter case to the Anti-Saloon League, which has its headquarters in Westerville, Ohio. "I will meet the Ku Klux Klan issue when it comes up," declared Senator Watson. "Until some crime is proved against that society or some other secret society I will withhold my judgment until the guilt of the accused is established." Atlanta, Ga.—The Ku Klux Klan will welcome any impartial investigation and will open its books and records to federal authorities, William J. Simmons, imperial wizard, said in a statement when informed that the department of justice might summon officials of the organization to Washington for interrogation. Operators Blamed for Mine Disorders. Washington.—The system by which coal operators in the West Virginia fields pay the salaries of deputy sheriffs, was held to be the principal cause of complaint from the miners and to be largely responsible for the recent mine disorders, in statements made to the senate investigating committee in Charleston by Attorney General England. The attorney general said he knew it to be a fact that deputies were employed in Logan county to keep out men seeking to organize unions. Portugal Storm Kills Hundreds. London.—One of the worst storms in years has swept Lisbon, Portugal, causing many deaths, according to a dispatch received here. Rain fell in torrents and streets were reported turned into rivers. Many persons were washed into sewers and several killed in the collapse of houses. According to the Central News, hundreds were killed or injured by the storm. Yankee Fails to Swim Channel. Dover, Eng—Henry Sullivan of Lowell, Mass., who recently made a fifth attempt to swim across the English channel, was obliged to abandon the effort before reaching the French const. When he decided to give up the attempt because of the coldness of the water he had reached a point twelve miles off this city and had been swimming nine hours. Cashier Locked in Vault. Colby, Kan.—An unmasked robber locked Cashier J. E. McKinney of the Menlo State Bank at Menlo, near here, in the bank vault and escaped with $40,000 in cash, according to a report received here. World Series Starts Oct. 5. Chicago.—The world series will start on Oct. 5, it was announced here, the first game to be played on the home grounds of the National league pennant winners. In the event that either Pittsburg or Cleveland should win in their respective leagues, two games would be played in Pittsburg and then two in Cleveland. President John Heydler of the National league won the toss and the first game for his league. BUDDHA'S HOLIEST SHRINE Shwe Dagon Pagoda in Rangoon Attracts the Devout From All Parts of the World. My Burmese friend Maung Hklin and I visited together the Shwe Dagon pagoda in Rangoon, which springs like a golden flame to the height of 368 feet among its flame-bright trees. Holy and most holy, to it come all the Buddhist pilgrims of the world, for in its innmost heart lie hidden relics of the four earthly Buddhas—the staff of Kawkathan, the water filter of Gawnagong, the robe of Kathapa and eight hairs of the Gaintama Buddha. Surely, the most gorgeous shrine of all the earth, covered with thin plates of gold up to the jeweled tree swimming in the blue air aloft! The original shrine is said to have been built in 585 B. C., but who can think of anything so cold as chronology amid such color and glory? We stood upon the noble platform before the towering golden pinnacles of the many shrines, each holding its calm image of the blessed one—images from China, from Tibet, from all the countries of the faithful, and the ardent green of the trees framed them with waving grace, and the happy people came and went and made their homage about us, and they and all the day overflowed with sunshine and joy. "And now," said Maung Hkhn, "it is fitting that we make an offering to the Lord Buddha. Thus is merit acquired and blessing gained. You think?" I did not doubt, and we proceeded to buy some flowers from the heaped masses of fragrance sold on the steps ascending in flights and pauses from where the great leagryphys 60 feet in height guard the portals with their noble grotesque. We bought also a bunch of tiny tapers and little green and gold sticks with which to light them, and with all these we approached the central Buddha, majestic in peace. The attendant lit the tapers from the burning rows with our sticks and set them on the iron grille, white with the dripping of mylrd candles. He took both my hands in his and softly repeated the invocation, and we laid down our flowers among the many that made the shrine glorious. And then, taking each of our right hands, he touched them with gold leaf on the back, and that was all. We had paid our homage. Gold leaf is always sold at the entrance, that merit may be acquired by touching with it the images or any gilded part of the shrine. Buddhism is a golden and jeweled faith in Burma—many villages have their golden pagoda—flames lit, as it were, from the central fire of the Shwe Dagon—Asia Magazine. Young Jimmy a Philosopher Young Jimmy a Philosopher. Just now Jimmy, seven years old, is about the most interesting person around the Swedish hospital, according to nurses. Jimmy was taken there several days ago for an infection in his hand. The nurses tried to keep him in bed, but as soon as they left the room Jimmy was out and investigating the mysteries of other wards. The other day a nurse was astonished when she entered Jimmy's room and was greeted with: "Say, do you know a man died in that room down there last night?" "Yes, I knew it. But how did you?" the nurse replied. "Oh, I read it on the report sheets," said Jimmy. "And say, do you know there was a baby born in the room next to mine?" "Well, for heaven's sake, how did you know that?" demanded the nurse. "I read it on the report sheets," Jimmy replied. Then he mused: "I guess there is some truth in the saying, 'The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away.'" But the nurse was too astonished to reply to that.—Kansas City Star. Significant Storm Warning. Significant Storm Warning. Below the 35th parallel of latitude in North America, a fire-colored sunset in the hurricane season may be a storm warning to be heeded. The United States weather bureau finds that, even without any particular fall in pressure, such a sunset may precede 24 or 48 hours such signs as the sea swell and the moving of the upper clouds in unusual directions, and may be the only early indication of dangerous tropical storms of small diameter forming over the Gulf stream, or offshoots of larger hurricanes. The fire-colored sunset is quite different from the ordinary. It is an awe-inspiring spectacle, and is apparent to the most untrained in weather signs. An approaching hurricane may affect the atmosphere, and the light rays passing through it, for more than 1,000 miles. Duralumin Motor Boats. Motor boats constructed of duralumin are claimed to combine extraordinary lightness with great strength. This aluminum alloy is little heavier than aluminum itself and a third as heavy as brass; it resists corrosion and temperature changes. The new boats are designed especially for life boats.

Attorney General authority, and he will have the limb is uncompromising stand is the most Harding administration came into be MORE AND more each day it is becoming evident that the race of the Ku Klux Klan has about been run. The crest of its popularity has passed. From this day on it will gradually decline until at last it falls of its own weight into a dishonored, well deserved oblivion. It will eventually be buried beneath the ruins of its own infancy. For weeks now the big dailies of the nation have published expose after expose; governors of various states have out-lawed its existence until it stands convicted before the bar of public opinion and justice as the most serpentine menace that has sprung up in this country in many generations. And in the midst of its dying gasps, its struggle to show signs of life, arises Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty of President Harding's cabinet, who denounces it as an organization repugnant to any lawyer or law-abiding citizen. He stated that the "government is not going to be run or intimidated by any man or organization wearing masks." No more un-American institution than the Ku Klux Klan was ever conceived in the brain of man. And the government of the United States could not do other than to use every means at its command to wipe it out of existence. Today it is no longer the Negro's fight against a ruthless enemy. It is the nation's fight against an iniquitous foe. Attorney General Daugherty speaks opportunely and with authority, and he will have the limitless backing of all good Americans. His uncompromising stand is the most hopeful sign given the people since the Harding administration came into being. BEARING FRUIT.

We believe heart of Southern white women will be WHEN THE Georgia State Committee on Inter-Racial Cooperation, composed entirely of women, came into existence something over a year ago and immediately following the expose of peonage conditions in Georgia, we hailed it as a movement in the proper direction. Very recent developments have eminently sustained our judgment. A special section of this Inter-Racial Commission recently issued a statement declaring that southern white women do not need the protection of mobs and its attendant brutalities. They deplore and condemn the brutal practice of lynching and burning of human beings as an expression of boasted southern chivalry. This is a righteous blow, but certainly a cruel one to the hollow pretensions of the southern white man who has always offered the protection of pure womanhood as an extension for mob violence and the illegal taking of human beings. But now the Southern white woman speaks out. Let us give you her words: "We are convinced that if there is any one crime more dangerous than another, it is that crime which strikes at the root of, and undermines constituted authority, breaks all laws and restraints of civilization, substitutes mob violence and masked irresponsibility for established justice and deprives society of a sense of protection against barbarism. "Therefore, we believe that no falser appeal can be made to Southern manhood than that mob violence is necessary for the protection of womanhood, or that the brutal practice of lynching and burning of human beings is an expression of chivalry. We believe that these methods are no protection to anything or anybody, but that they jeopardize every right and every security that we possess." Sound words of wisdom these. They effectually remove the last vestige of an excuse for the South to longer persist in its lawlessness and barbarism. Perhaps it might be well to state that the women comprising this newly organized body are among the most prominent in Georgia and hail from all parts of the state. They leave no doubt as to the sincerity of their purposes, and call upon the press, pulpit, platform and school to take the lead in an endevor to so mould public opinion that a reasonable safe-guard may be thrown around both races. God bless such womanhood, such a Christian spirit. After all, our labors and prayers are not in vain. We believe that this open, fearless stand on the part of Southern white women will be far-reaching in its effects. ASK PRESIDENT HARDING FOR PROBE OF KU KLUX KLAN. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, today made public a telegram sent to President Harding asking for federal investigation followed if necessary by congressional action on the "commercialized race hatred" represented by the Ku Klux Klan.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People bases this request upon its own information about the Ku Klux Klan which has been placed in the hands of public officials and on the complete expose of the organization now being made in the New York World. The association was one of the first to volunteer its information about the Ku Klux Klan to the Department of Justice and again takes this occasion to assure you of its desire to assist the government in every way possible.

When the reading clerk concluded there were general cries of "pass," and the mayor declared the resolution passed without a roll call. The resolution condemns, "the presence of the Ku Klux Klan in Chicago" and pledges the council's "services to police authorities to rid the community of this organization." In its preliminary sections the resolution declares: "That it is not necessary to augment the police force of the city of Chicago with a secret organization. "That political, ecclesiastical, and race prejudices are perpetuated and acted upon by the members of the Ku Klux Klan to the detriment of the whole nation by means of mysterious oaths and pledges. "That any secret organization based upon these methods and purposes is absolutely destructive to American institutions." "That the traditions and odium attached to the Ku Klux Klan and the acts which have been attributed to it make it a menace to the city of Chicago with its heterogeneous population and different religious creeds."

Desiring to maintain its high standing and acknowledged reputation, under the able leadership of Mr. Frank S. Reed, who has managed the affairs of the above named company for more than seven years, and who leaves for Chicago to take up another profession. We have secured the services of Mr. Jesse Douglass, a well known clean cut gentleman of high standing to succeed Mr. Reed as licensed embalmer, funeral director and assistant manager of this company. Mr. Douglass will take charge Saturday, Sept. 24, and will conduct the funeral of the late David Long at the Campbell A. M. E. church on Sunday, Sept. 25. HIGH CHURCH DIGNITARIES VISIT DENVER. Denver was very fortunate during the past week in having within her gates two very distinguished clergymen of our racial group. Bishop W. A. Fountain of the A. M. E. church connection, and presiding over the 18th Episcopal District appeared at Shorter church last Sunday morning and delivered one of the most powerful sermons heard here in a long time. The church was crowded to the doors and many were turned away who gathered to hear his wonderful message. At the evening service another large crowd, gathered to hear Bishop Fountain lecture on South America and the West Indies. The lecture proved an intellectual feast to all who heard it. Bishop I. B. Scott, a noted churchman in the M. E. church connection, was the big figure at Scott M. E. church Sunday morning. And here scenes almost identical to those at Shorter prevailed. A very large crowd gathered to hear the Bishop, for whom Scott church was named. His sermon was a revelation of logic and deep religious fervor. In some way word was passed out that the Bishop would lecture at the evening service, but this proved a mistake, as it was necessary for him to be in Colorado Springs. However, he returned to Denver Monday and delivered a pleasing lecture Monday night. Mrs. Ida Carrie left last Sunday morning for Chicago, after a pleasant summer's visit in Denver. She goes to spend the winter with her sister, Mrs. Gertrude Jackson, but plans on returning to this city in the early spring to reside permanently. LEAVING DENVER Dr. Frank S. Reed, long associated with the Douglass Undertaking Co., and one of the most highly respected and prominent citizens of Denver, will leave for Chicago Saturday morning, September 24, 1921, to reside permanently. Dr. Reed goes to complete his studies as a chiropractor, for which he has been fitting himself for a number of years. He will be missed in many different circles, as he stands high in the Masonic order, also in his profession as a licensed embalmer, and as a good citizen in general. As an evidence of the affectionate regard in which he is held by his Masonic brothers, about thirty members of the Knights Templar Commandery, of which he is a member, gathered on the lawn at the Church of the Redeemer last Sunday, in full uniform, to have pictures taken with Dr. Reed in the must, that he might be with them in likeness through the years to come. THE COLORADO STATESMAN says without stint that Dr. Reed will be a valuable contribution to any city where he may cast his lot. We deeply regret his leaving Denver, but if his going means an entry into the larger life of usefulness, where he can minister more fully to his fellow man, we bid to him and his devoted family—God speed.

The local baseball season came to a practical close last Sunday, so far as our boys were concerned, and again, the A. B. C's showed their superiority by high class playing all through the game, winning over their adversaries by a score of 2 to 1. The game was characterized by the leading sport writers of the city as one of the snappiest and finest games seen in Denver this season. By the victory the A. B. C's won the city championship in their league. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Three years ago I had to undergo a severe operation which has left me in a weakened condition ever since. Periodically I would get the most excruciating pains across the abdomen, which would become defuse and extend clear to the back of my head. In the stomach I would then feel a nauseating sensation, leaving me in an exhausted state of prostration, with my extremities as cold as ice. After trying all methods known to me and my friends, I decided finally to try chiropractice. Fortunately I was advised to consult Dr. O. E. Funke, 311-312 McClintock Blk., this city, and I am grateful to say that thru his conscientious, skillful and patient handling of my case, I am today free from all former pains and sufferings, and able again to enjoy life. I only regret, that I did not know of this method before my operation. I am quite certain Dr. O. E. Funke could have prevented it with chiropractic adjustments. MRS.

All Work Neatly Finished. Denver, Colo. Bath DENVER, COLO. By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN. OU presumably know, as all good Americans should, that Buffalo Bill, Col. William F. Cody, is burled on Lookout Mountain in the Front range of the Colorado Rockies. Y But do you know that more people visit Buffalo Bill's grave each year than go to the graves of Washington and Lincoln? Well, it is so. And there appears to be ground for the statement that within a few years Buffalo Bill's grave will be the most-visited grave in the world. This is the way of it: The city and county of Denver have established the Denver Mountain parks, lying between the city and the peaks of the continental divide. There are 3,236 acres; the cost has been $477,850; there are 50 miles of roads. Lookout Mountain is one of the scenic features of these parks. The main automobile road, of which the Lariat trail is a part, climbs to its summit. Buffalo Bill's grave is on the east slope of Lookout Mountain, and is easily reached by a road that turns out at the Golden reservoir on the summit. Close by the grave the city has established a Buffalo Bill museum. In the summer of 1921 approximately 350,000 visitors entered the gates of the Denver Mountain parks. Of these visitors about one-quarter was from other states. Most of these out-of-the-state visitors stopped to see the grave and the museum. So much for the present. The tourist business of the scenic West is increasing tremendously year by year. Denver is geographically the gateway to this scenic West with its twelve national parks and thirty-two national monuments. It is the starting point of the National Park-to-Park highway. Most visitors to Denver in the summer drive through the Denver Mountain parks. So, as the tourists grow in numbers, the visitors to Buffalo Bill's graves will increase. The Buffalo Bill museum on Look-out mountain was opened to the public last Memorial day. The park officials report that it, in connection with Buffalo Bill's grave, has proved to be the most popular feature of the mountain parks this last summer. Pahaska Teepee is the official name of the Buffalo Bill museum. The name is well taken. "Pahaska" is the name given Buffalo Bill by the Sioux Indians. The word means "Long Hair." The building is typically mountain style in construction. Within it are housed the personal reliies and collections of Buffalo Bill. This was made possible through the interest and generosity of his widow, Mrs. Louisa M. Cody, to whom nearly the whole collection belongs. And the crowning touch of the museum is the fact that Johnny Baker is in charge of it—yes; the very same world's champion shotgun and rifle shot who was Buffalo Bill's right-hand man so many years in the show business. Certain it is that no American youngster—to say nothing of the grownups—can pass by Pahsuka Teepe without stopping. The museum houses a decidedly interesting collection. Some of these are: The more important paintings of Buffalo Bill. Among these is the Papacena equestrian portrait, presented to the city of Denver. When the monument is erected over Buffalo Bill's Golfer's Trick Strokes. Golfer's Trick Strokes. The young Austrilian golfer J. H. Kirkwood is something of a wizard with the ball and clubs besides being a first-class golfer in the ordinary way. His tricks include driving a ball off the face of a watch without touching the glass. He can raise the ball from the ground with his niblick and catch it in its fall without changing his stance. He has driven a ball from under a man's boot toe. He has at A grave, this painting will be done into bronze. The photograph given here with gives an idea of how the equestrian statue will fit in with the surroundings. Paintings of frontier life done for Buffalo Bill by noted artists in accordance with his descriptions of scenes and incidents. The scalp of Yellow Hand and the knife with which Buffalo Bill killed the chief and lifted his scalp. Yellow Hand was a noted Cheyenne chief who took part in the Sioux war of 1876. Buffalo Bill was serving as a government scout. At the battle of Indian Creek the scout and the chief met in personal combat in full view of the contending forces. In those days it was the proper thing for a victor to "count his corps"; hence the scalp. The gun used by Sitting Bull in the battle of the Little Big Horn; Sitting Bull's scalp, shirt and peace pipe. Sitting Bull (1837-90) was the famous Sloux chief who led the 6,000 Indians who wiped out Gen. George A. Custer, and his 277 men in 1876. He escaped to Canada, returned in 1890 and was killed in an attempt to rescue him from arrest. "Lucretia Borgla," the rifle which gave Buffalo Bill his name. When the Union Pacific was being built the scout made a contract with the railroad company to furnish its laborers with meat. In eighteen months, 1867-8, Buffalo Bill is said to have killed 4,350 buffalo with this rifle in carrying out his contract. Buffalo Bill's guns, saddles, bridles and personal ornaments, including many gifts made to him by Indian chiefs and by crowned heads in Europe. Mementoes of the tours of the "Wild West Show" in Europe. Now, lest the younger generation should think of Buffalo Bill as merely an Indian fighter, buffalo killer and showman, here are the principal facts in his life, in brief: Born in 1846 in Scott county, Iowa; 1860, "Pony Express" rider; 1861, cavalry scout for the Union in Civil war; 1872, member Nebraska legislature; 1890-1, brigadier general Nebraska National Guard in Indian wars; 1891, organized Wild West show; 1901, president of Cody Military college, Wyoming; judge advocate general of Wyoming National Guard; president Shoshone Irrigation company; author of five books written between 1879 and 1916. Municipal Facts, an official Denver publication, gives the following information of Pahaska Tepee and its purpose: The city of Denver, largely through the instrumentality of W. F. R. Mills, chairman of the mountain parks ad times placed a ball near the lip of the hole and ten others at intervals behind it; then beginning with the tenth ball he lifts them one after the other over the stymie and into the hole. He began his golfing career as a caddie and at the age of sixteen was appointed professional at Brisbane.—Manchester Guardian. Must Not Read Speech. The rule in the British house of commons is that speeches cannot be read. However, "copious notes" are LARIAT TRAIL visory commission, erected the museum building in accordance with an agreement with Johnny Baker, the world champion shotgun and rifle shot, who was with Colonel Cody in his show business from the time that Baker was seven years old. Mr. Baker operates the building as a concession, but no admission is ever to be charged to the Buffalo Bill museum. Aside from the historical and romantic interest attached to the building through the collection, the structure itself is so absolutely suited to the purpose for which it was designed, that it seems to have been inspired. The structure is built of undressed pine logs, covered with hand-split shingles. The crowning feature of the building from an architectural standpoint, is the remarkable use made of garbled and curved logs and branches, stumps and roots of trees. There is probably no chandelier in the world so unique as that which hangs from the two-story ceiling of the Tepee. Heads and skins of wild animals hang from the walls and balcony rails. Two smarling wolves' heads gleam from recesses in the great stone fireplace. At the entrance an ancient buffalo skull, with the skin and hair partly adhering, bears the legend. "The Last of the Buffalo." Aside from the museum features Pahaska Teepie fills a long-felt want in the mountain parks. For several years the park authorities of Denver have been desirous of establishing a pavilion somewhere in Lookout Mountain park, equipped with a high-class, popular-priced restaurant, for the convenience of Denver's residents and guests. Fronting the plains is an immense balcony from which, with a pair of field glasses, one may look into the states of Wyoming, Nebraska and Kansas, the states that, with Colorado, were the stamping grounds of Buffalo Bill during his life as hunter and government scout. Denver stretches out on the plains, ten miles distant on an airline, and at night the lights of the city, winking in umlson with the stars above, blaze in a wide diamond-studded bank from north to south. The view is superlative either by day or night; there are few views in America more interesting and impressive. Eventually a monument to Colonel Cody is to be erected at his grave. The Cody Memorial association was raising funds for this purpose when America entered the war, and, of course, the movement, like many similar ones throughout the country, had to be abandoned for the time being. It is expected that the association will now revive the project allowed, and sometimes they become so "copious," as practically to amount to a complete address. If the member who attempts to read a speech is "young," that is, is new to the house, and especially if he is making his first effort, the house is usually indulgent, permitting him to go on, provided he somewhat conceals the fact that he is reading by keeping his manuscript on his desk and not making a display of it. Such breach of the rule is winked at. The rule, however, is no read speeches. HOW THE FARMER WILL BE AIDED DIRECTOR OF THE WAR FINANCE CORPORATION ON THE AGRICULTURAL RELIEF ACT. IT'S WORKABLE, SAYS MEYER Meets Present Conditions by Assisting in the Carrying of Farm Products So They Can Be Marketed More Slowly. Bv EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—Sceningly officials of government directly charged with the work of administering the agricultural relief act, which was passed by congress and approved by the President recently, believe that the legislation is to bring some of the results which are desired. Experience alone probably will determine the outcome, but the War Finance corporation is planning the work and is expressing confidence in real accomplishment. Eugene Meyer, Jr., is the managing director of the War Finance corporation. His views on the agricultural relief act ought to be of interest, for his organization is charged with the work of its administration. His views, to be approved, or perhaps combatted, according to the viewpoint, are as follows: "The agricultural relief act is a measure of great significance to our agricultural interests. It is a very constructive piece of legislation, and, in my opinion, is thoroughly workable from the administrative point of view. It recognizes the new conditions existing in our international and domestic trade and aims to meet these conditions by giving the War Finance corporation power to assist in financing the carryfig of agricultural commodities until they can be marketed in an orderly way. "The inability and unwillingness of foreign merchants and manufacturers to purchase the greater part of their requirements for the years during the period immediately following the harvesting of our crops, as they are accustomed to do in normal times, coupled with the failure of our own merchants and manufacturers to carry normal stocks, has brought about a situation which makes it necessary for us to market our staple agricultural products over a longer period than usual. Cotton Situation an Example. "This situation is clearly indicated in the following extract from a report from an investigator of the Department of Agriculture, who is now in Europe studying the markets there for American agricultural products: "The cotton merchants over here in the countries visited do not think it sound business for American shippers or banks to advance too much credit to the cotton mills. They say that the mills can arrange the necessary credits with local banks to buy cotton if only they can show an outlet for the goods; that extending liberal credit from America will tend to increase the risks assumed by the mill and may lead to speculative ventures on the part of the mills. "The merchants point out that mills should buy cotton only as they are able to sell goods profitably and then that the mill should cover its requirements with cotton close at hand. They go so far as to say that the merchant should sell cotton on call for the mill to fix the price when the goods are sold. This suggestion seems unsound to me, as it involves too great a risk for the seller, making him take chances which rightfully fall on the manufacturer. But at any rate the suggestion that reasonable stocks should be placed in the leading European markets and hedged in dollars, seems sound. Exchange Rate Interferences. "The price can be fixed when the sale is consummated and at a rate of exchange which is taken into consideration when the price is determined. These merchants point out that they cannot carry large stocks as in former years as a change in the rate of exchange might cause serious losses, and that therefore they must of necessity buy cotton only as it is needed. If they follow out this plan it will mean safe business to European mills, but a slow and long drawn-out cotton season back in America, and cotton growers might as well make their plans to market their crop gradually as the demand warrants. "The pressing need at the present time, therefore, is for additional facilities to finance our staple agricultural products so that they can be marketed more gradually than formerly. The agricultural relief act aims to provide these facilities along sound lines, and in a way that will be helpful not only to the producers themselves, but also to the whole business of the country. "It should be clearly understood that the act is an emergency measure, designed to meet the abnormal conditions now confronting us. Experience in connection with its administration, however, should enable us to determine to what extent, if any, additional financial machinery of a permanent character is necessary to take care of the marketing of our staple agricultural products in an orderly way under normal conditions." Conference on Unemployment. Conference on Unemployment There will be held in Washington shortly a meeting of men to make what is called "an intensive study of the industrial situation and of the causes of a condition which has forced nearly six million American men and women to idleness." Apparently no official in Washington seems to think that means can easily be found to put the idle back to work, but it seems to be the hope that somehow something can be done, through legislation or otherwise, to relieve the present situation. There are doctors enough with their cures for the trouble, but most of the doctors disagree as to the remedy, and as one high official put it, the man who can find a remedy not only will be a public benefactor, but can write himself down as the first person who ever succeeded in overcoming that rare old partnership of supply and demand. As a matter of fact, no one here believes that the men who are to come here to discuss unemployment will be able to suggest anything definite that will relieve the situation, unless the recommendation shall follow the line of suggestions of legislation of various kinds which already has been proposed. There are men here who say that if congress will put the railroads back into running, so to speak on smooth rails, and will, supplement proper legislation for the benefit of the agricultural interests, all will be well; but here again one runs up against conflicting views. There are men who think that the railroads do not need any additional legislation for their benefit and that the farming interests already have been sufficiently provided for, and that therefore something entirely new in the way of legislation is needed to start the factory whistles of the country to blowing again. Disagree on Legislation. Concerning some of the legislation which the administration evidently desires to have put through for the purpose of ending unemployment, there is a vast gulf of disagreement between representatives of the employers and representatives of the employed. Legislation for the relief of the railroads is a point at issue. The executives of the roads look at it one way and men employees look at it another way. There will be some kind of a compromise on legislation, but the history of things ever since the days of the Missouri Compromise goes to show that compromises generally are only strong enough to struggle through a short life. It is certain that there is economic trouble in the country. Some six millions of Americans have acute knowledge of this fact. Men and women who made big wages during the war and did not waste their money are much better off today than their brothers and sisters who also made big money but who insisted on enfolding themselves in silk shirts and Alaska seal skins. The virtue of thrift is preached from a good many pulpits of the land every Sunday, but there are some millions of Americans today who apparently stand ready to say that experience is a better teacher than any preacher. Small Nations and the Conference. Based on information which came from men in touch with the intentions of the various countries of earth, the statement was made six weeks ago that "while the disarmament conference membership will be limited to certain great nations, there will be present outside the conference chamber many pleaders in behalf of countries and half-countries which lie along a line much longer than that which runs from Byzantium to Spain." Although warned long ago, the administration and the State department are only today taking something like alarmed notice of the intention of every small nation of earth, every half-nation, and every country that wants to be a nation, to have representatives in Washington at the forthcoming disarmament and Far East conference. Today Washington officialdom is reasserting its determination that there shall be no consideration of any international problems "that may be clouded the main issue." Apparently it took the State department a long time to learn of the activities of the agents of small countries who have been working in Washington with a view to securing some kind of a representation in the forthcoming conference, or, failing this, to force the consideration of problems with which the representatives at the conference are supposed to have nothing to do. Headquarters for Propaganda. Of course the will of the administration will prevail, and nothing will be taken up at the conference except disarmament and Far East problems, but if the propagandists in behalf of other things are given the news and newspaper opportunities which they seek, the public will be given full information concerning the alleged needs of this land or of that land, the boundary and other troubles of every small state, and a full presentment of the wishes of all the peoples under the sun. In other words, Washington will be the headquarters during the conference of the propagandists in behalf of countries, races, and very likely religions. The conferences will have trouble to keep away from the importunists, and to dodge vocal and printed importunities. On the Contrary. Friend—It is hard to borrow money in a strange town.

CHEESE MAKING OFFERS MEANS OF UTILIZING SURPLUS MILK Bread Simple Equipment for Making Cheddar Cheese at Home. Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture. American or Cheddar type cheese is palatable, rich in food value, and it may be kept for long periods without refrigeration. Every housewife knows of a number of palatable dishes made from cheese which serve as a change in the ordinary diet. As it may be made at any time of the year where there is a surplus of milk, cheese making offers an exceptionally advantageous means of conserving for later use milk which might otherwise be wasted, suggest specialists in the United States Department of Agriculture. fat but not the curd. Ren in the proportion of one or two teaspoonfuls, to 100 milk. First dilute the repint of cold water, then thoroughly, and leave the container undisturbed for 1 Cut the curd when suffice do not crush or break it. S gently from fifteen to twer Heat it at the rate of two five minutes until the reaches 100 degrees F. S heating. Hot-Iron Curd To Allow the curd to renew wheat at 100 degrees F. un Approximately five or six hours are required from the time the milk is placed in the vat for heating until the cheese is put into the hoop for final pressing, and during that time it is not necessary for the operator to give it his entire attention. From this point until the end of two weeks only a few minutes each day are required to turn the cheese. After that time the cheese is turned only twice a week until fully cured. Best results have been obtained in regions where the nights are cool throughout the summer and where cool water may be obtained. Approximately $10_{1 / 2}$ pounds of cheese are obtained from 100 pounds, or 11 2-3 gallons, of milk containing 4 per cent butter fat. It is important to have fresh, clean, whole milk for cheese-making. If milk is to be kept overnight it should be cooled to a temperature of 60 degrees F. or lower, and held at that temperature until used. The milk should not be held more than twelve hours, as it is very important that it be perfectly sweet. A wash boiler, large kettle or tub may be used for cheese-making, but If cheese is to be made frequently a regular cheese vat is more satisfactory. A cheese vat is so constructed that hot or cold water may be circulated around the milk for regulating the temperature. Control of temperature throughout the manufacturing process is essential. A good thermometer, therefore, should be used. The milk is heated in the vat or wash boiler to a temperature of 86 degrees F., at which it is held until after the curd has been cut. Rennet to Curdle the Milk. Cheese made without the addition of coloring matter is light yellow or straw color; if a deeper shade of yellow is desired a small quantity of coloring is put in the milk. Regular cheese color should be used, and not butter color, as the latter colors the Spiced Vinegar Is Frequently Valuable for Pickling—Herbs Useful for Carnish. Spiced vinegar is used in making pickles, for flavoring gravies, potato salad, and similar dishes. For pickling it is especially valuable, as the flavor from spiced vinegar is the same all through the pickles, while if pepper, cloves, and dill are added directly to the pickles the flavor is more concentrated at the places where these spices are put. The herbs from which the spiced vinegar is made may be used as a garnish by mixing them in the pickle. An excellent spiced vinegar is made by filling a wide-mouthed bottle or a fruit jar to within two inches of the top with spiced plants of different kinds, such as slices of horse radish and onions, umbels of dill, ripe seed of white mustard and celery, green seed of nasturtiums, fine stems and leaves of tarragon, basil, and sweet marjoram. A pod of red pepper may also be added. The bottle o: jar is then filled with vinegar, heated to 100 degrees F., corked or sealed and left for about three weeks. At the end of the three weeks, strain the vinegar and fill in small bottles. Cork and seal with melted paraffin or sealing wax. MUCH BENEFIT FROM FRUITS They Supply Acids and Are Important for Their Flavor and Other Good Reasons. Fruits are very important in the child's diet. They supply mild acids and they are important for their flavor, for their laxative effects, and no doubt for other reasons. This laxative effect is well recognized in the very general use of prunes, orange juice, and apples. Fruits, like the vegetables, have mineral elements which the body requires. Serve fruits in soup at least once a day. fat but not the curd. Rennet is added in the proportion of one-third ounce, or two teaspoonfuls, to 100 pounds of milk. First dilute the rennet with a pint of cold water, then stir it in thoroughly, and leave the milk and container undisturbed for 30 minutes. Cut the curd when sufficiently firm; do not crush or break it. Stir the curd gently from fifteen to twenty minutes. Heat it at the rate of two degrees in five minutes until the temperature reaches 100 degrees F. Stir it while heating. Hot-Iron Curd Test. Allow the curd to remain in the whey at 100 degrees F. until firm and until enough acid has developed. Do not let the curd mat together. Sufficient acid has developed when the curd applied to a hot iron will form strings one-fourth to one-half inch long. The curd is firm enough if a handful of it pressed together between the hands falls apart readily when the pressure is released. Draw off the whey and put the curd on a draining rack which has been covered with a muslin cloth. Do not let the curd form into pieces larger than a hickory nut. Keep the curd warm while on the rack. When the curd forms strings from three-fourths to one inch long on a hot iron, add salt at the rate of three ounces for ten pounds of the curd. Have the curd at a temperature of about 85 degrees F. Put it in a hoop lined with cheesecloth and apply pressure gently. Cheese hoops may be obtained from dairy supply houses. The cheesecloth is left on the finished cheese. After one and one-half hours the cheese should be taken out and dressed, that is, all wrinkles are taken out of the cheesecloth which covers it. When the cheese has been properly dressed it should be put back in the press and full pressure applied for 24 hours. Then the cheese is ready for the curing room where it remains at a temperature between 50 and 60 degrees for two weeks. The cheese should be turned daily in the curing room until it is paraffined to prevent it from drying too much, and also to prevent molding. The paraffin is heated to a temperature of 240 degrees F. and the cheese rolled in it. After this has been done the cheese need be turned only twice a week. Cheese may be cured enough to be eaten when six weeks old; the flavor, of course, is then quite mild. Farmers' Bulletin 1191, "Making American Cheese on the Farm," gives many details of the process and equipment for cheese making. VEGETABLES NEED CLEANING Much Care Should Be Exercised Whether Served Raw or Cooked—Use Brush on Potatoes. Wash all vegetables with great care, whether served raw or cooked. Scrub large vegetables, such as potatoes and carrots with a brush. Greens should be washed leaf by leaf under running water, or in a large amount of water, until free from grit and visible dirt. In the latter case, any sand which clings to them is likely to sink. To prevent it from getting on the vegetables lift them from the water instead of pouring the water off. All Around the House The sweetened omelet is often used as a dessert. All canned meats and fish should be removed from the cans as soon as opened. Try putting a piece of camphor lee away with your silver. It keeps it from tarnishing. Allow two level teaspoonfuls of baking powder to each cupful of flour when no eggs are used. Two parts of pork fat to one of beef fat form an excellent mixture in which to fry doughnuts. Take a strip of adhesive plaster, write name and address in ink, and stick inside of your umbrella. Put a little sand in the bottom of Chinese lanterns and they will not sway and will be less apt to take fire. To cool food quickly fill the lower part of a double boiler with ice or cold water and place food in the upper part.

If you are fond of fish, try the following method of preparing it: Steamed Fish. —Clean the fish and rub well with salt and pepper, lay on a buttered plate, cover with buttered paper and steam in the Clean the fish and rub well with salt and pepper, lay on a buttered plate, cover with buttered paper and steam in the steamer over hot water for 30 minutes for a fish two inches thick. Drain the gravy from the pan into a cup and fill the cup with hot water to use for the sauce. Fish Sauce.—Melt one tablespoonful of butter, add one tablespoonful of flour, pour the hot broth over the mixture, adding such seasonings as are needed. When well cooked, add one tablespoonful of lemon juice and pour boiling hot over four well-beaten egg yolks; stir over hot water until thick. Mask the fish with part of the sauce and send the rest to the table in a bowl. Poached Eggs Creole Sauce.—Cook one tablespoonful of onion in two tablespoonfuls of butter until slightly brown, add one green pepper shredded and cook until soft, then add one can of tomatoes or its equivalent of fresh tomatoes, salt and pepper to taste. Reduce to one-half, add a dash of lemon juice and turn on a deep platter. Place buttered toast on this and ponched eggs on the toast. Corn Bread.—Take one cupful of cornmeal, one and one-half cupfuls of flour, one tablespoonful of sugar, one teaspoonful of salt, sifted with two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, add one and one-half cupfuls of sour milk and one-half cupful of sour cream or buttermilk. Add two beaten eggs and one teaspoonful of soda dissolved in the sour milk. Maple Mousse.—Heat one cupful of maple syrup to the boiling point and boil five minutes; add slowly to the whites of three eggs beaten stiff, then add three-fourths of a tablespoonful of gelatin softened in cold water with just enough boiling water to dissolve it, beat until the mixture is cold, then fold in the whip from three cupfuls of cream, mold, pack in salt and lee, using one part of salt to four of ice and let stand for three or four hours. If only myself could talk to myself As I knew him a year ago, I could tell him a lot, That would save him a lot, Of things that he ought to know. —Kipling. TASTY DISHES Liver is such tender and delicate meat when nicely cooked that it should be more used and appreciated. The following recipe will be something a little different from the ordi- nary: Cucumbers Braised Liver, —Skewer and hard with strips of salt pork the upper side of a calf's liver. Place in a deep pan, dredge with flour after seasoning well with salt and pepper. Add one-fourth cupful each of finely diced carrot, onlon and celery; add one-half teaspoonful of peppercorns, six cloves, a small bit of bay leaf and two cupfuls of brown stock or water. Cover closely and bake slowly two hours, uncovering the last twenty minutes. Serve with a brown sauce and fried onions. Ginger Pudding.—Cream one-third of a cupful of butter, add one-half cupful of sugar, one egg well beaten; mix and sift two and one-fourth cupfuls of flour, three and one-half teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one-fourth teaspoonful of salt, three teaspoonfuls of ginger; add alternately with one cupful of milk to the flour mixture. Turn into a buttered mold and steam two hours. Serve with vanilla sauce. Celery Soup.—Take one pint of water in which celery has been cooked, add one pint of milk seasoned with onion. Thicken with three level tablespoonfuls of butter and the same of flour, with one-half teaspoonful of salt and a dash of pepper. Blend the celery water with this, and pour over the yolks of two eggs beaten well. Rolls.—Put into a bowl three tablespoonfuls of butter, two tablespoonfuls of sugar and one teaspoonful of salt. Add two cupfuls of scalded milk. When lukewarm, add one cake of compressed yeast softened in one fourth of a cupful of warm water. Beat well and let rise until foamy and full of bubbles. Then add two to three cupfuls of flour and knead until it has tost its stickiness and is smooth and elastic. Let rise until double its bulk. Knead again, shape into rols, let rise and bake in a quick oven. Coconut added to an ordinary custard pie makes it very tasty. A half-cupful of chopped black walnut meats sprinkled over the top of a custard pie makes a delicious crust. Welsh rarebit served with croutons in place of toast is much easier to eat and especially nice. Prepare plenty of the little squares of buttered bread either fried or browned in the oven and pour the rarebit over them. Nerelle Maxwell The Kitchen Cabinet (© 1921, Western Newspaper Union.) Oh! for a new generation of day dreamers. They will not ask whether life is worth living—they will make it so. They will transform the sordid "struggle for existence" into glorious effort to become that which they have admired and loved. EVERYDAY GOOD THINGS A good custard pie well made and baked is a dessert which it is hard to equal. It is not necessary to use four eggs to a pie nor are three indispensable — two eggs with a tablespoonful of flour mixed with the sugar will make a very good custard. If one desires a richer custard, three eggs may be used. essary to use four eggs to a pie nor are three indispensable — two eggs with a tablespoonful of flour mixed with the sugar will make a very good custard. If one desires a richer custard, three eggs may be used. Coffee Custard.—To three slightly benten eggs add one-half cupful of sugar, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of strong coffee and a cupful of cream. Strain into cups, set in a pan of hot water and bake in a moderate oven until firm. Serve with: Caramel Sauce.—Melt one-half cupful of sugar in a smooth omelet pan, stirring constantly. When melted add one-half cupful of boiling water and slumber until the sugar is dissolved. Potato Timbale.—Spread a pan thickly with butter, then cover with fine dry crumbs, roll beaten egg lightly all over the surface, then dust with crumbs again. Fill the pan with hot mashed potato, seasoned highly with salt, pepper and butter, onion juice with cream and two egg yolks to each pint of potato. Bake thirty minutes in a moderately hot oven. Invert on a hot platter and let stand ten minutes before removing the mold. Tomato Sauce.—Brown one-fourth of a cupful of butter, add five tablespoonfuls of flour and stir until well mixed. Add one and one-half cupfuls of brown stock and the same amount of stewed and strained tomato, one large slice each of carrot and onion finely chopped, a small bit of bay leaf, a sprig of parsley, four cloves, three-fourths of a teaspoonful of salt, pepper and tabasco sauce to taste. Cook twenty minutes and pour over the croquettes when ready to serve. Popovers.—Beat one egg until light, add one cupful of milk to the beaten yolk, then stir in one cupful of flour and fold in the egg white with one-eighth of a teaspoonful of salt. Bake in deep granite or crockery cups, well greased. This recipe makes seven popovers which should bake about 40 minutes in an oven hot enough to bake bread. One ship goes east, and another west, While the selfsame breezes blow. It's the set of the sails and not the gales That bids them where to go. Like the winds of the air are the ways of the fates As we journey along through life: It's the set of the soul that decides the goal And not the storm or the strife. —Ella Wheeler Wilcox. A DAY WITH SALADS A salad may be prepared of almost any edible food. Beginning the meal, a mixture of fruit is called a cocktail, and may consist of any combination pleasing to the palate. A delicious one is prepared of balls of yellow muskmel is called a cocktail, and may consist of any combination pleasing to the palate. A delicious one is prepared of balls of yellow muskmelon, using a potato scoop to prepare the balls, and the fruit should be ripe but firm. Fill the glasses with the golden balls and pour over a nutmeg sauce, using orange juice, a dash of lemon, sugar and grated nutmeg for flavor. Cool, and pour over the muskmelons, and serve with a sprig of mint of chervil for a garnish. A sauce of ginger shrup with some of the canton ginger added, finely chopped, makes a delightful combination for those who enjoy ginger. Marshmallow and Apple Salad.—Take finely cubed, good-flavored apples, sprinkle with lemon juice, add a few blanched almonds and equal quantities of celery, then a generous handful of quartered marshmallows; stir Into a cupful of whipped cream, three table-spoonfuls of beiled salad dressing, adding such seasoning as seems good, and serve. Date Salad.—Cut an orange into sections, using care to keep them whole, removing the connecting tissue; add one cupful of diced celery, one-half cupful of nut meets broken in bits and two cupfuls of diced apple with one-half cupful of dates. Add a spoonful of lemon juice, and serve with any good, well-seasoned salad dressing. A most delicious salad combination is apple, pear and celery. Add any desired salad dressing and serve on head turtle hearts. Shred the apple, celery and pears in uniform strips, marinate with French dressing for an hour before serving. Salad combinations are not always easy to conform to the recipe in hand. One must use imagination and substitution—a bit of this and a bit of that, much tasting and an eye for garnishing will make a pleasing salad out of odds of foods that would otherwise go to waste.

In this model the designer has made an overgarment, innocent of waist line and flaring in the skirt portion where panels are introduced at each side. He has pinned his faith to rich embroidery of silk and metal threads, placing it in borders and almost covering the front of the dress with it, and we can imagine the effect with duvetyn in a dark color as the foundation. ALWAYS a volume could be written about some frocks—as about hats. The story is never all told until the season is over and gone—and before that time arrives, fashion was underway a sequel to follow. The best-loved of gowns is that one which makes a success of its wearer's afternoons. There is a long list of fabrics at hand to choose from including several crepe weaves, duvety velvet, satin, taffeta and fine wools, but the accent just now is to be placed on crepe and velvet. The slim silhouette remains the favorite, with variations that take in tunics, straight line and bloused models, having long waistlines. The exception to the rule of the slim silhouette appears in those frocks with a quaint flavor of days gone by, that are made with tight bodices and full skirts, or in There are many points in the autumn modes that give designers of afternoon frocks advantages. There is the fenturing of sleeves, the uneven hem line, figured and plain crepes, beads, braids, fringes and embroidery all yearning to look their best on the frocks that must bear many comparisons. THE NEW COATS SAY "WE AIM TO PLEASE" Q is found in the company of embroidery, but the embroidery is used in novel ways, and new collars and sleeves seem to increase the importance of fur trimming. The handsome coat pictured shows how effectively it is used to finish off the full, bell sleeves and to make the new, straight high collar. This model is of velours, with braid embroidery. "WE AIM to please" appears to be the motto that has governed the makers of our wraps for the coming winter season, for they have presented several distinctive styles in coats. You may choose a voluminous wrap, wide and full, or a cape-coat, wholly concealing the outlines of the figure, or a slim affair with snug-fitting hip line and long, bloused body, or a first cousin to the dolman or just an ample coat, but in all of them there is the flavor of the new season.
