SUBSCRIBE FOR THE ONLY RELIABLE PEOPLE'S PAPER IN COLORADO "THE COLORADO STATESMAN" THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY LEST WE FORGET—"PUT DOWN YOUR BUCKET" SPEECH MADE AT ATLANTA, GEORGIA, BY LATE BOOKER T. WASHINGTON VOL. XXVIII. LEST WE FORGET— YOUR BUCKET" S ATLANTA, GEOR BOOKI N FURTHER discussing the speech delivered by the late Booker T. Washington at Atlanta, Georgia, in 1895, the editor of the Richmond "Planet" admitted that the ex- tracts published in the Age of December 3rd, bore out the construction that was placed upon them, but a desire was expressed that the whole speech be published. In order to comply with this desire for further enlightenment, as well as to place the full address before a generation to whom it will be a revelation of the character of the man who made it, the complete address is printed as follows: "Mr. President, and Gentlemen of the Board of Directors, and Citizens: One-third of the population of the South is of the Negro race. No enterprise seeking the material, civil or moral welfare of this section can disregard this element of our population and reach the highest success. I but convey to you, Mr. President and Directors, the sentiment of the masses of my race when I say that in no way have the value and manhood of the American Negro been more fittingly and generously recognized than by the managers of this exposition at every stage of its progress. It is a recognition that will do more to cement the friendship of the two races than any occurrence since the dawn of our freedom. "Not only this, but the opportunity here afforded will awaken among us a new era of industrial progress. Ignorance and inexperienced, it is not strange that in the first years of our new life we began at the top instead of at the bottom; that a seat in Congress or in the State Legislature was more sought than real estate or industrial skill; that the political convention or stump speaking had more attraction than starting a dairy or truck garden. "Cast Down Your Bucket." "A ship lost at sea for many days suddenly sighted a friendly vessel, from the mast of the unfortunate vessel was seen a signal, 'Water, water; we die of thirst.' The answer from the friendly vessel at once came back, 'Cast down your bucket where you are.' A second time the signal, 'Water, water; send us water!" ran up from the distressed vessel, and was answered, 'Cast down your bucket where you are.' And a third and fourth signal for water was answered, 'Cast down your bucket where you are." "The captain of the distressed vessel, at last heeding the injunction, cast down his bucket, and it came up full of fresh, sparkling water from the mouth of the Amazon river. To those of my race who depend on bettering their condition in a foreign land, or who underestimate the importance of cultivating friendly relations with the Southern white man, who is their next door neighbor, I would say: 'Cast down your bucket where you are'—cast it down in making friends in every manly way of the people of all races by whom we are surrounded. "Cast it down in agriculture, in mechanics, in commerce, in domestic service, and in the professions. And in this --- connection it is well to bear in mind that whatever other sins the South may be called to bear, when it comes to business, pure and simple, it is in the South that the Negro is given a man's chance in the commercial world, and in nothing is this exposition more eloquent than in emphasizing this chance. Our greatest danger is that in the great leap from slavery to freedom we may overlook the fact that the masses of us are to live by the productions of our hands, and fail to keep in mind that we are to prosper in proportion as we learn to dignify and glorify common labor, and put brains and skill into the common occupations of life; we shall prosper in proportion as we learn to draw the line between the superficial and the substantial, the ornamental gewgaws of life and the useful. No race can prosper till it learns that there is as much dignity in tilling a field as in writing a poem. It is at the bottom of life we must begin, and not at the top. "Nor should we permit our grievances to overshadow our opportunities. "To those of the white race who look to the incoming of those of foreign birth and strange tongue and habits, for the prosperity of the South, were I permitted I would repeat what I say to my own race, 'Cast down your bucket where you are.' Cast it down among the eight millions of Negroes whose habits you know, whose fidelity of love you have tested in days when to have proved trecherous meant the ruin of your firesides. "Cast down your bucket among these people who have without strikes and labor wars, tilled your fields, cleared your forests, builted your railroads and cities, and brought forth treasures from the bowels of the earth and helped make possible the magnificent representation of the progress of the South. Cast down your bucket among my people, help and encourage them as you are doing on these grounds, and added to education of head, hand and heart, you will find that they will buy your surplus land, make blossom the waste places in your fields, and run your factories. "While doing this, you can be sure in the future, as in the past, that you and your families will be surrounded by the most patient, faithful, law-abiding, and unresenting people that the world has seen. As we have proved our loyalty to you in the past, in nursing your children, watching by the sick-beds of your mothers and fathers, and often following them with tear-dimmed eyes to their graves, we shall stand by you with a devotion that no foreigner can approach, ready to lay down our lives, if need be, in defense of yours, interlacing our industrial, commercial, civil and religious life with yours in a way that shall make the interests of both races one. In all things that are purely social we can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hands in all things essential to mutual progress. Security in Intelligence.

If any-where there are efforts tending to cur-tail the fullest growth of the Negro, let those efforts be turned into stimul-ating encouragement, and making him the most useful and intelligent citizen. Effort of means so invested will pay a thousand per cent interest. These efforts will be twice blessed—blessing him that gives and him that takes. There is no escape in the law of man or God from the inevitable: "The laws of changeless justice bind Oppressor and oppressed; And close as sin and suffering joined We march to fate abreast." "Nearly sixteen millions of hands will aid you in pulling the load upward, or they will pull the load downward against you. We shall constitute one-third and more of the ignorance and crime of the South, or one-third of its intelligence and progress; we shall contribute one-third to the business and industrial property of the South, or we shall prove a veritable body of death, stagnating, depressing, retarding every effort to advance the body politic. their gifts a constant streng-ing and encouragement.

Starting thirty years ago with ownership here and there in a few quilts and pumpkins and chickens (gathered from miscellaneous sources), remember the path that has lead from those to the invention and production of agricultural implements, buggies, steam engines, newspapers, books, statuary, carving, paintings, the management of drug stores and banks, has not been trodden without contact with thorns and thistles. While we take pride in what we exhibit as a result of our independent efforts, we do not for a moment forget that our part in this exhibition would fall far short of your expectations but for the constant help that has come to our educational life, not only from the Southern states, but especially from Northern philanthropists, who have made --- their gifts a constant stream of bless ing and encouragement. Progress Result of Struggle. "The wisest among my race understand that the agitation of the questions of social equality is the extremest folly, and that progress in all the privileges that will come to us must be the result of severe and constant struggle, rather than of artificial forcing. No race that has anything to contribute to the markets of the world is long in any degree ostracized. It is important and right that all privileges of the law be ours, but it is vastly more important that we be prepared for the exercise of these privileges. The opportunity to earn a dollar in a factory just now is worth infinitely more than the opportunity to spend a dollar in an opera house. "In conclusion, may I repeat that nothing within thirty years has given us more hope and encouragement and drawn us so near to you of the white race, as the opportunity offered by this exposition; and here bending, as it were, over the altar that represents the struggles of your race and mine, both starting practically empty-handed three decades ago, I pledge that in your effort to work out the great and intricate problems which God has laid at the doors of the South, you shall have at all times the patient, sympathetic help of my race; only let this be constantly borne in mind, that while from representations in these buildings of the product of field, of forest, of mine, of factory, of letters and art, much good will come, yet far above and beyond material benefits will be that higher good, that, let us pray God, will come in a blotting out of sectional differences and racial animosities and suspicions, in a determination to administer absolute justice in a willing obedience among all classes to the mandates of law. This coupled with our material prosperity, will bring into our beloved South a new heaven and a new earth." Bert Williams Heads Own Show Bert Williams Heads Own Show Chicago, Ill., Dec. 28.—Bert Williams, the famous comedian, who is now appearing in "Under the Bamboo Tree" at the Studebaker, this city, is at "his best" according to opinions of the ever critical and hard to please public. The vehicle through which Bert Williams passes is philosophy and humor to the public is unique in musical comedy productions in that Williams is the only colored member of the organization. This situation proves that the theater-going public has at last arrived to the point where they are willing to be entertained strictly on merit. No comedian on the American stage, or any other stage, can produce better laughs than Bert Williams. Sam McVey, Famous Negro Boxer, Dead Sam McVey, Famous Negro Boxer, Dead New York, Dec. 23.—Sam McVey, Negro heavyweight pugilist, died today in a local hospital, a victim of pneumonia. McVey, one of the most formidable of Negro heavyweights during his ring career, was born in California in 1885. Standing close to six feet in height and weighing 200 pounds, he possessed terrific punching power, more than the average boxing skill and ability to take heavy punishment without faltering. His first appearance as a serious heavyweights contender was in 1902, when he fought two twenty-round contests with Jack Johnson, later world's champion, losing both bouts on decisions. In the years that followed, he met all of the Negro heavyweight contenders and a number of white heavyweights. His ring record is remarkable for the number of bouts with Sam Langford. During the decade beginning in 1911, McVey and Langford fought more than a dozen contests ranging from short no-decision bouts to twenty-round encounters. These were staged in all parts of the world, from Australia to South America. Langford was the victor in a majority of the battles. Recently, McVey had appeared in the role of trainer and sparring partner for Negro and white heavyweights training for important contests. Despite his thirty-six years, he retained his boxing skill and hitting powers, and always was in demand in this capacity. Objects to Eating With Race Folk Washington, Dec. 27. — Protest against the practice of permitting Negroes to patronize the House of Representatives restaurant in the Capitol was made today by Representative Answell, Democrat of Louisiana. In a letter to Chairman Ireland, Republican of Illinois, and Democratic members of the committee which is in charge of the restaurant management, Mr. Answell stated four Negroes had been noted in the restaurant within a few days. Assurance is said to have been given that thereafter the restaurant would be restricted to whites. NO 13 Boulder, Colo., News Well, everyone seems to be enjoying themselves in Boulder. No grouches here. At least we don't meet them. Some one told us wedding bells would soon be ringing. We are patiently waiting to see. The weather here is still delightful. No one is kicking much. It surely saves fuel. Well, everyone reports a happy new year. We hope it may be.

The large reception room was decorated with the club colors. Many of our people called and shared the hospitality of the ladies. The elite of the city accepted the hospitality of the Elks on New Year's night from 8 to 12 o'clock, at their hall on Thomas street. It was an evening long to be remembered by our citizens. An excellent repast was served. Each guest was presented with a souvenir booklet containing a list of the membership of Frontier Lodge No. 285, I. B. P. O. E. of W., Cheyenne, Wyo., when organized, and club motto. Mr. John Baker, exalted ruler, and his officers and members received many compliments for excellent methods of entertainment.

It is possible to prevent a river from freezing over by supplying a small amount of heat, the American Association for the Advancement of Science at Toronto was told by John Murphy, engineer of the Canadian Department of Railways and Canals. The Rock river in Illinois, a navigable stream, has been kept from freezing for five winters over thirteen miles of its length by spilling tepid water into it at the rate of two barrels a second. GENERAL An athletic stadium with 70,000 capacity will be built by the University of Detroit, officials announced. Work is to start immediately.

The schooner was owned by the Hurvitz Trading Company. A bargain party for the exchange of undesired Christmas presents was held in New York at the Woman's City Club. It was a merry party and everybody got rid of their misfit gifts. This trading scheme, when first proposed by women who maintained that Santa Claus was human and liable to mistakes, drew loud protests from sentimental folk, but bold practicability won. Two Chicago banks with resources of more than $85,000,000 were sold after the Chicago clearing house committee had conducted an examination and found their assets had been impaired by bad loans and investments. After two days' negotiations the Fort Dearborn National Bank and the Fort Dearborn Trust and Savings Bank were purchased by the Continental and Commercial National Bank and Continental and Commercial Trust and Savings Bank. Deaths from cancer in the death registration area of the United States in 1920 totaled approximately 73,000, according to a report by the census bureau, which on a basis of proportional population estimates the total of deaths for the entire country at 89,000, or an increase of 5,000 from the estimate for 1919. The body of Charles Swinney, former soldier, has been found near Kings Mill, Tenn., after a search, according to advises received. The top of Swinney's head had been blown away.

The youths were foiled in a plot to escape when their sentence was affirmed, files and hacksaws being found secreted in their cells. WASHINGTON Diplomatic relations between Germany and the United States were rehumed officially when Carl Lang, charge d'affaires from the Berlin government, presented his letters of credence and was received by Secretary Hughes. An appropriation for the enforcement of prohibition during the next fiscal year amounting to $0,000,000, perhaps slightly more, as compared with the Treasury Department's request for an appropriation of $10,000,000, will be recommended to the House by its appropriations committee. An appropriation of approximately $9,000,000, members of the sub-committee framing the treasury appropriations bill hold, will permit rigid enforcement of the national liquor laws. The Southern tariff conference, representing sixty-four Southern industries, will meet in Washington Jan. 9 and 10, it was announced, to discuss the association's attitude toward the American valuation plan of the pending tax bill and to urge an increase in duties on farm products, especially vegetables, oils, poultry, live stock, wool, hides, sugar and rice.

With three children looking on, Mrs. Caroline Rossi, wife of Mike Rossi, proprietor of the Moonlight ranch, killed a man identified as Norman D. Gould in her home in Denver, by beating him on the head with a baseball bat. Gould died in the county hospital shortly after. According to the statement of Mrs. Rossi the man was a burglar. She declared that she wielded the bat after he struck her in the face with a revolver. Peter Loose of Fort Morgan was sentenced in that town to two years in the penitentiary for operating a still in his home. Loose's undoing came about through his attempt to purchase an auto from the sheriff of the county, who, becoming suspicious that it was wanted to haul liquor, invaded the Loose home. Mrs. Loose was found making whisky in a cave dug into one side of the cellar. Loose, according to word received in Denver, readily admitted his guilt and accepted sentence. The arrest of two men and two women at Colorado Springs prevented a bank robbery, according to a confession Chief of Police Hugh D. Haper says was made by Ralph Demasters, one of those arrested. The alleged yegg said the plans for the robbery had been worked out, but refused to admit which bank was "spotted." Following clues to a series of small robberies, police placed Lew Cargill, his wife, Marion Cargill; Ralph Demaster and Mrs. Mary Aldord under arrest. Margorie Windstand, the 4-year-old daughter of L. B. Windstand, living one-half mile south of Brush, was burned to death. Mrs. Windstand had gone to a neighbor's for some articles for dinner, leaving Margorie to look after the baby, who was in a cradle. As the room was cold Margorie opened the heating stove door and it is supposed filled the stove with newspapers, which ignited her dress and all her clothing was burned off down to her shoes. Her mother returned and at once called the doctor. The girl was rushed to the Brush hospital, but died within an hour. The body of Thomas Flynn, 61 years old, prominent Pueblo business man, was found hanging from a rafter in the basement of his place of business, by his son. Coroner R. B. Dibble announced that Flynn left a note in which he bade his friends good-by and designated the cemetery in which he wished to be buried. Despondency is assigned as the cause for his act.

Marshall, former Kansas oil man, has gone to Mesa Verde National Park, taking with him an improved moving picture machine, 10,000 feet of film, supplies for a month and an expert camera man. Mr. Marshall recently financed the making of a 2,000-foot film of the park, and the effort was attended with such a degree of success that it has encouraged the present trip. It is the plan of the party to make a 7,000-foot feature picture of the park for educational purposes to be exhibited throughout the East. Mr. Marshall plans to enlist the services of Dr. Fewkes, lecturer of the Smithsonian Institution, in his circulation of the film. W. A. Eagleden, a contractor in the mining district sixty miles south of Grand Junction, was overcome with a sudden illness when riding through the mountains. He was unable to walk, and crawled four miles to a telephone to send in a call for a doctor. A doctor was sent from Grand Junction and he was operated on for stomach trouble. He is well known all over the western slope. Dr. Arthur Davis, prominent physician of Durango, Colo., shot himself to death at the home of Fred Rogers, his brother-in-law, who lives near Golden. CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Local breeders of purebred live stock are interested in efforts now being made by County Agent McCann and the local farm bureau, to secure for Mesa county a three days' live stock extension course, to be given at Grand Junction Jan. 26, 27 and 28. Mr. McCann is in correspondence with the authorities at the Agricultural College in an effort to arrange for this course. It is hoped to have Dick Jay, live stock extension agent from the Agricultural College, for the entire three days. Two courses are being considered either one dealing with the feeding of live stock or one dealing with the question of breeding. The breeders residing on Orchard Mesa began the movement for this course, and the meetings will be held on one of the ranches of that district. One of the many sources of receipts through business channels during 1921 is traced to the ninety-eight national conventions and state gatherings, including stock show visitors, held in Denver. The out-of-town attendance was 32,835 persons, and they stayed from three days to a week, or more. Efforts of the convention committee of the tourist bureau of the Denver Civic and Commercial Association, headed by Chairman Will R. Owen, to get delegates to stay another day, if possible, and make a short trip by rail or auto, were successful. Actual stopovers of delegates routed through Denver to attend conventions elsewhere were also encouraged, and as a result about 4,000 of the 7,500 visited Denver's system of mountain parks. The University of Colorado hospital has been given to the city of Boulder for two years, provided that the Commercial Association will maintain the institution satisfactorily and without expense to the university. At the end of two years the building is to be used by the university for whatever purpose it may see fit. The building was originally used as a training school for medical students, but due to the transfer of the medical school to Denver it is no longer needed. Andrew Carlyle Carson, state historian of Colorado, designer of the Colorado state flag, and for eleven years manager of the Orpheum theater here, died at his home in Denver. Mr. Carson retired from the active management of the Orpheum theater in May, 1912, because of failing health and had devoted most of his time since then to writing photoplays and to historical and biological writings. He had been ill for only three days preceding his death. Fire in the C. W. Daniels furniture store at Colorado Springs caused about $25,000 damage to Christmas goods ready for shipment and to the stock. The fire was discovered in the rear of the building and the alarm was speedily given, enabling firemen to keep it from spreading. About 200 shipments were destroyed, and $15,000 worth of rugs damaged by fire and water. The fire was kept from spreading to the basement, where $25,000 in furniture was stored. Otis T. Burton, confessed holdup and alleged member of a gang operating in Pueblo and possibly Denver, pleaded guilty in Colorado Springs and was sentenced to from seven to ten years in the state penitentiary by Judge J. W. Sheafer in the District Court. Burton was arrested when B. H. Taggart, 60, whom he attempted to rob, beat him with a set of lead quoits he was carrying home for a Christmas present. The Durango Evening Herald reports renewed activities in the Lake Fork mining district, near Durango. Several companies are making extensive improvements on their mining properties and plan to resume operation. One man was killed and another suffered fractures of both legs, and twelve passengers in one train were badly shaken while another train was covered under a snowslide near Durango recently. Seven years ago travelers purchased Indian curios while visiting in Colorado; today, sales include staples. The result is that August, formerly the dulest in the business man's calendar, is next to December, the heaviest month, in point of sales. Tourists seven gears ago probably left $5,000,000 in Colorado; in 1921, with an estimated 500,000 tourists by rail and auto, sales and hotel accommodations climbed to $35,000,000. Activities of the Denver Tourist Bureau during the first seven years of its existence have included the distribution of literature, which, if stacked in a pile, would be eighteen times the height of the Eiffel tower in Paris and twenty-three times as high as the Woolworth building in New York City. The application of Receiver W. R. Freeman of the Moffat road to abandon Rollinsville station, as one of several measures calculated to reduce the expenses of the road, is being opposed by residents of that village. The matter came before the State Utilities Commission. A compromise may be affected whereby arrangements can be made to open the station before train time, especially during the winter months. No more government funds will be available for Colorado roads that cross railroad tracks on a grade, the federal road bureau has announced. The numerous mishaps that occur at such points is assigned as one of the reasons underlying this decision. The Colorado Highway Department, which had perfected plans for a bridge across the Fountain river near Buttes, was notified of the new policy. It is possible that revised plans will provide for an entirely new route that will eliminate the objectionable features Phon J. GIBS ART J. GIBSON SMITH ART DEALER 1638 TREMONT ST.

FOUR POWER PACT WILL BE RATIFIED NOT A LEAGUE OF NATIONS, BUT AN ASSOCIATION, AS IT IS VISUALIZED BY HARDING. COMMENTS ON RESEMBLANCE Wisdom of the Unusual Publicity Given the Proceedings of the Conference on Armaments Has Been Made Apparent to All. By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—At a dinner given here in which "skits" on current things formed a part of the diet, a huge key was held up to the gaze of the diners with the statement that it had been found, and that the owner was sought, Attached to the key was a tag on which was printed "Key to the back door of the League of Nations." The instantly voiced suggestion of the toastmaster of the occasion was that the key might belong to Secretary of State Charles E. Hughes. There was instant disclaimer of ownership from one speaking in behalf of the secretary, and the disclaimer was coupled with the word that the key could not even be slipped into one of Mr. Hughes' pockets because all of these ordinarily useful receptacles were sewed up. In this little skit perhaps is to be found the meat of the comment in Washington concerning the agreement for a four-nations pact just entered into by the plenipotentiaries in behalf of Great Britain, France, Japan and the United States. There is further assurance that when it shall become necessary to bind this pact the United States senate will approve it by the necessary majority. Some men will vote for it who would not have voted in any circumstances for something which was much like it, but which was proffered to the senate by different hands. Of course the four-power pact is not a league of nations, but it is an association of nations, as Mr. Harding visualizes such an organization. In the book of synonyms "league" and "association" are printed one after the other. There are shades of differences of meaning in words given as synonyms. It is hard sometimes to detect the differences of shading. Differ. But on Parallel Paths. There is really a wide difference between what seemingly is to come out of the Washington conference and what came out of the Versailles conference, but the two things trot along in paths parallel for some of their course, but which, after some distance has been covered, incline toward each other and finally meet. Joseph P. Tumulty, the one time secretary to former President Wilson, has set it down over his signature that the ideas and the substance of this treaty are identical with those found in the Wilson covenant, and he quotes former pronouncements of Mr. Lodge and Mr. Taft to prove his point. Another man, who is said to be an expert, declares that the treaty savors of the Hague and not of Geneva. Well, whichever it savors of, the differences of opinion on the subject, or at any rate the differences of expressions of opinion, which are not always the same things as opinions, are perhaps of little moment because it seems assured that the senate will accept the agreement, ratify the necessary treaty or treaties, and that the partnership of the United States in Mr. Hardling's association of nations will become an accomplished fact. In dispatches it has been said authoritatively that the Japanese would accept the naval ratio of strength proposed by Mr. Hughes on the opening day of the conference. As soon as it was known that the proposal for a pact between the four great nations was to be accepted it was known that the Japanese acceptance of the 5-5-3 ratio, or something very close to it, also could be accepted, Wisdom of Publicity. Things have gone on rather swimmingly since the day of the beginning of the conference. There has been more publicity than at any gathering of the plenipotentiaries of the powers since time was, and all this notwithstanding the fact that the smaller committee meetings necessarily have been secret. Prior to the coming together it was held by most of the conferees that it would be unwise to make any of the committee meetings public. Today in Washington the wisdom of the course pursued is apparent. There have been bickerings in the committee meetings and perhaps an exchange of a hard word or two, but in the open all has been peaceful, and moreover in the open there is given the proof that no matter how heated the conferences in the committee rooms, satisfactory results finally were reached. If the multitude of writers assembled here in Washington had been given access to the committee rooms the little quarrels might have been taken to mean that greater quarrels and final disagreement were to come. The country would have been kept in a state of uncertainty, and it is probable that the animosities of the delegates might have been increased by public discussion of their differences. Submarines Cause Trouble. Submarines Cause Trouble. The question of what to do with submarines has given the international conference more trouble than any other of the upstanding interrogation marks. Such agreements as have been made, or are to be made, it is likely will be subject to readjustment in the future. The submarine and poison gas have interested the peoples of the world more than any other question of war material and armament, and in keeping with the interest is the anxiety concerning the future of these two weapons. Naturally enough, the British do not like submarines. At no time do they have more than two weeks' supply of food to sustain the forty millions of people in the home land, and submarines are a menace to food-carrying ships in the time of war. If anyone should desire stronger evidence that the nations still look upon future war as a possibility, he can find it nowhere more clearly defined than in the attitude of American naval officers and some other naval officers on this submarine question. The weakness of Great Britain's position in war, if wide-ranging subs are allowed, is recognized, and with the possibility of war ever in mind the naval officers of other nations do not look with entire satisfaction on an agreement that offensive submarines shall not be used. Harding's Kindliness Scores. I discussed the amiability of the conference proceedings, and the celerity with which agreements were reached, with a visiting Englishman. He said something, which it seems to me may account in part for the pleasantness of the whole proceedings and the rapidity with which they have moved toward the seemingly assured point of success. The Englishman gave more credit to President Harding than he gave to Secretary Hughes for the plaidity of things generally, and for the quick acquiescence of most of the nations represented in the details of the program as outlined. This visiting Britisher asked me if I realized what an impression the apparent personal kindliness of intention of President Harding in all the relations of life, national and international, had made on the foreigners who are here in official capacity and also on the people who had sent these foreigners to Washington. He said the British believed in the sincerity of the President and that his fetching way and his general kindliness of demeanor had strengthened the impression of sincerity and had been a most potent factor in bringing representatives into quick accord. There probably is something in this. The President has not taken an active part in the conference proceedings, for he has been entirely satisfied to leave matters in the hands of his secretary of state, and yet Washington officials, and now it seems the foreigners with them, are in a mood to give the personality of the President credit for doing something which an aggressive manner never could have done. Washington Grows Weary. News suggests activity, and therefore it probably is bad newspaper work to put in the first paragraph of a dispatch the information that Washington is getting tired of the strenuous life and hopes that what President Harding calls normalcy soon will be the rule of the day. Over in congress the members, although they will not admit it, are tired, not physically tired necessarily, but tired of the activities made necessary by war and postwar conditions. Everybody here hopes, and says so quietly, that things soon may be adjusted economically and in other ways so that when congress comes together again next year it will be confronted only with the necessity of doing such work as engaged it seven or eight years ago. The peace conference is suggestive of quiet, and yet the social and business activities attending this council of placidity have kept men's minds moving and their legs keeping accompaniment to jumping nerves. Pronouncements of peace have been like pronouncements of battle, full of exciting interest as to the effect on the future, and have created solicitude as to the next step to be taken to insure that ameliorating conditions shall be made permanent. Congress is going to have some debates this winter on matters which, while apart from the conference, are to be more or less nerve-racking. There are several matters of high dispute to be settled and the debates are likely to run away with themselves. Since 1914 Washington has been in a ferment and it is likely to remain so until some time in the perhaps genial summer of 1922. Yearly Conference Suggested. A yearly conference of the kind which is now on in Washington has been suggested as a good means to keep the world content with itself, which means that the people of the world must be content with one another. The thought is that a yearly conference, or a conference every other year, can attend to all little troubles which may have come to interfere with the workings of the plans as outlined by the first conference. When the thought first was advanced a sort of a sigh went up from official Washington, for the suggestion was that this city again might be the meeting place. Everybody in the capital, except the hotelkeepers, wants to get back to the quiet life, or at least to a life as near to the quiet as the rapid advancement of America's position in the world will admit. It was a British representative who suggested the yearly conference. The day after he made the suggestion he proposed that the next meeting be held in some other capital of the world, and Washington gave a sigh of relief. It is not altogether impossible that the Japanese will be the hosts at the next great conference if one shall be held. ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION POWERS ADOPT SUBMARINE LAW FIVE NATIONS TAKE NEW CODE TO STANDARDIZE USE OF UNDERSEAS BOAT. RESOLUTION ACCEPTED CONFERENCE REINSTATES IN TERNATIONAL RULE RELATIVE TO MERCHANTMEN. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) Washington.—The five greatest naval powers of the world have decreed as between themselves abolishment of submarine warfare against merchant ships. To purge the seas forever of his hidden menace to peaceful folk and ships, the world is asked to subscribe to the decree as a new principle of international law. As adopted by the naval committee of the arms conference the resolution proposed by Ellhu Root, and amended by Arthur J. Balfour, to become immediately effective between the five signatory powers, runs as follows: "The signatory powers recognize the practical impossibility of using submarines as commerce destroyers without violating, as they were violated in the war of 1914-1918, requirements universally accepted by civilized nations for the protection of the lives of neutrals and non-combatants, and to the end that the prohibition of the use of submarines as commerce destroyers shall be universally accepted as a part of the law of nations they now accept that prohibition as henceforth binding as between themselves and they invite all other nations to adhere thereto." "I. The signatory powers desiring to make more effective rules adopted by civilized nations for the protection of the lives of neutrals and non-combatants at sea in time of war, declare that among these rules the following are to be deemed as established part of international law. "(1) A merchant vessel must be ordered to submit to visit and search to determine its character before it can be seized. "A merchant vessel must not be attacked unless it refuses to submit to visit and search after warning, or to proceed as directed after seizure. "A merchant vessel must not be destroyed unless the crew and passengers first have been placed in safety. "1. Belligerent submarines are not under any circumstances exempt from the universal rules above stated, and if a submarine cannot capture a merchant vessel in conformity with these rules, the existing law of nations requires it to desist from attack and from seizure and to permit the merchant vessel to proceed unmolested. "2. The signatory powers invite all other civilized powers to express their assent to the foregoing statement of established law, so that there may be a clear public understanding throughout the world of the standards of conduct by which the public opinion of the world is to pass judgment upon future belligerents."

Washington,—Negotiations involved in the offer of Henry Ford for purchase and lease of the Muscle Shoals, Ala., nitrate and power projects, which have been at a standstill for several weeks, will be resumed Jan. 11.

Swift Loses $20,000,000. Chicago.—There was a loss in inventory values of Swift & Co., Chicago packers, of $20,000,000 during 1921, Louis F. Swift, president of the company, stated in addressing the thirty-seventh annual meeting of the stockholders. However, during the prosperous years of the war," Mr. Swift continued, "we provided for the serious decline by appropriating large amounts to surplus in order to maintain the company in sound financial condition, enabling us to continue the payment of regular dividends. We paid dividends of 8 per cent, amounting to $12,000,000. Sues ex-Kaiser for Allowance. Berlin.—Princess Joachim of Prussia, widow of the former German emperor's youngest son, who committed suicide in 1920, is bringing action against William Hohenzollern for a maintenance allowance, on the ground that her marriage contract, concluded in accordance with the laws of the Hohenzollerns, entitles her to the means of subsistence. The case is being tried before a Berlin court. Reserve Bank Shows Profits. New York.—Earnings of the Federal Reserve banks of New York during 1921, less expenses and the deductions provided by law, were $20,702,439, as compared with $39,318,510 in 1920. Making this announcement the bank explained that the decline in the amount of earnings was due to the smaller volume of loans which the Reserve bank was called upon to make. The average capital during 1921, it added, was $26,812,000 and the average deposits $674,325,700. Copyright, 1921, Western Newspaper Union.

How long will this uncivilized condition be permitted to flourish upon American soil? How long will life remain unsafe and property remain insecure when the rights of the black man is the issue? The Negro never had greater reason for assuming a fighting attitude than now. A fight, actuated not by mere belligerency, but a fight for manhood rights. In the courts, before the bar of public opinion, within every forum of untarnished Americanism we must fight. The day has passed when we must look to others to champion our cause. The burden will be added to rather than relieved, unless we use the giant strength of collective activity to snap the cords. The Negro, from this day, refuses to further, willingly be a beast of burden for the white man's deep-seated prejudices. The Uncle Tom's are passing from view, the horizon of a new day brings to our perspective a MAN, a man dark of skin but intelligent and with a full knowledge of what American citizenship means. He wants to be judged as other men are judged, he wants to enjoy property rights as other races enjoy them. He wants the same laws, the same educational advantages, the same industrial opportunities as others have. If a fair but vigorous insistence brings criticism, then well and good. Better a thousand times the criticism of arrogance be leveled against us than the contempt of cowardice. We do not seek to shift the burden to others. We want all men free and untrammeled, and an estimate of worth be based upon the heights to which we have arisen, instead of the depths from which we come.

So one of opportunity for the education. Revival of the Washingtonian years of our struggles for higher ON ANOTHER page, under the caption, "Lest We Forget," THE COLORADO STATESMAN publishes the great "Cast down your bucket" speech by the late Booker T. Washington at the opening of the Cotton States Exposition in Atlanta, Ga., many years ago. For some reason there has recently arisen a great deal of discussion over the depth of that speech and its application to our status as citizens today. It brought to the immortal founder of Tuskegee almost instantaneous fame, that carried his name into every important nation on the globe. There was something of the magic in it that caught the hopes and fancles of Negro, and at the same time brought forth the applauding approval of the white southerners. It was hailed a new doctrine of self help, a sound gospel which, if religiously followed and earnestly adopted as an ARTICLE OF FAITH, would be a main spring in the highest development of race ideals, and a bulwark of strength along the lines of education and business that in their finality would insure the cultivation of high character and the perpetuity of moral integrity. All of this was at first blush, and from the hour of that speech to the moment of his death, Booker T. Washington continued to grow in esteem and tower in stature. The glory of achievement was his at Atlanta, the glory of immortality was his at Tuskegee. One was the splendor of OPPORTUNITY, the other was triumph over DEATH. But all of this, as we stated at the out-set, was many years ago. More than a decade has passed to give to the world a more mature estimate of the Washington speech and the effects of the Washington policies. Neither have withstood the wear and tear of time, nor the on-slaughts of critics as well as we had hoped. The armor plate of a supposedly impregnable policy has been found to contain many places of weakness. There are those who contended and still believe that the sage of Tuskegee was wholly an opportunist, that he studied the race problem through the same goggles used by the southern white man, and "saw things" only as the South wanted him to see them. We believe this to be a gross exaggeration. Certainly no one will set up a claim for his infallibility. Booker T. Washington was intensely human, his raiment was not spotless. But he was the greatest out-standing figure of the Negro race at the time of his death, and neither this generation, nor the next, nor many succeeding generations will outlive the wholesome effects of his preachments nor the beautiful lessons of his life. If modernity still believes in such personages as the "Man of the Hour," then surely Washington was that man. He was a born leader and possessed in round quota the technical capacities of leadership. He had a vision as well as undaunted courage and executive ability. We doubt if the race journals could at this time render a more useful and lasting service than by printing again the great speech of Washington at Atlanta. "Cast down your bucket where you are," sound words of wisdom these, and a fitting slogan for the Negro in every part of the country. The cry for help is not likely to be heard very far these days. So cast down your bucket, push open the door of opportunity for the educational and economic progress of the race. The unexpected revival of the Washingtonian principles will prove a great help in these days of our struggles for higher things. Magpie Omen of Ill Luck.

Reorganization of the U. S. Bureau of Education on University Lines By JOHN T. TIGERT, U. S. Commissioner of Education. charge its functions, has been undertaking a considerable variety of activities, which may be divided roughly into two main classes: First, the activities of the more or less routine character, which I have termed "stated" or "continuing activities"; and, second, the activities of highly trained experts in various fields of education, whom I have designated the technical staff. There are seven divisions of those activities which I have termed continuing or stated activities. They have all been placed under the general direction of the chief clerk, Lewis A. Kalbach, who has served most efficiently in the bureau for more than thirty-four years. To provide for more definite correlation of the activities of the technical staff, and in order to increase the effectiveness of our work by promoting co-operation throughout the bureau, it seemed to me advisable to bring all the activities of the bureau, and more especially of the technical staff, under the review of a general advisory body, corresponding roughly to the council of deans or similar advisory bodies which exist in colleges and universities. I have, therefore, appointed such an advisory council, composed of the heads of the various research divisions, together with the chief clerk, and I have made Dr. W. T. Bawden chairman, who has been designated assistant to the commissioner. Final administrative authority with reference to the activities of the bureau and the executive power are exercised by the commissioner. Is Woman to Sit Around Idle Because Society Forbids Her to Work? Shall a woman work? I thought that this question had long since been decided. It seems to me that work isn't a matter of sex or matrimonial state; it is the contribution that the worker makes to society and the self-expression which he or she finds in that work. And this applies just as much to married women as to unmarried women or to men, for that matter. A woman owes it to herself and to society to seek what is for her the highest self-expression. And whether she does this by taking care of her husband and children alone, combining the home with a job outside, or doing just a job in the industrial or business world, must be a matter for her to decide. Certainly, if we are to begrudge this to a woman, we are reverting to the Dark Ages. Very few modern homes are sufficient to occupy the entire mind and time of a woman. And is a woman to sit around idle, with half of her abilities stagnant, just because society forbids her to work because she doesn't have to support herself? By C. W. GALLOWAY, Vice-Presst Baltimore & Ohio. It is now necessary for engineers to consider all construction from the standpoint of safe operation. With each recurring year the increase in the number of automobiles and the growing carelessness of the drivers make it very important that we devote some extraordinary effort to lessen accidents at grade crossings. We are confronted with the fact that there are 10,000,000 motor vehicles now in use in the United States. When we inaugurated the observation plan, we found that 84 per cent of automobiles failed to take proper precautions when crossing our tracks. In the three months of November, December, 1919, January, 1920, we made 1,933 observations, and there was a total of 484 failures to take safety precautions, or 25 per cent. During the year of 1920 we extended our observations. In the twelve months of that year there were 49,665 observations with 8,236 failures, or 16 per cent. In 1921 our observers became even more active, and in the first six months of this year there were 248,988 observations made, and the failures reached only 8,775, or $3\frac{1}{2}$ per cent. The Academic Lawyer Has Done Much to Discredit the Profession The academic lawyer has done as much—if not more—to discredit the profession as the dishonest practitioner. Trying a case as an abstract, intellectual proposition usually results in failure. Advising on a business question from the purely academic point of view generally spells disaster if the advice is followed by the client. Most of us need more business sense and less erudition in handling the affairs of ourselves and our clients. As we well know, some lawyers have developed a genius at mixing things up, merely because they are ignorant of business and business principles. They can introduce so many fanciful and imaginary complications into a simple real estate deal that they frighten the seller out of selling and the buyer out of buying. Both become satisfied that the law is a mantrap, the lawyers being the trappers and the clients the trapped. To regain and to hold his place in the business world the lawyer must learn business methods and adopt in large measure the business point of view. Otherwise he will be passed by as being too impracticable. PETER H. HARRIS Under the administration of my predecessor, Dr. P. P. Claxton, the activities of the workers in the United States bureau of education were very lazily directed by the commissioner personally. Dr. Claxton's experience before and during his ten years in the commissionership gave him a knowledge of education and its technic which, perhaps, no other man in America could have. In attempting to assume the duties which he had been discharging I found it impossible to carry on the activities of the bureau as he had done. It became necessary for me to effect some kind of reorganization. I find that the bureau, in attempting to dis- By FANNIE HURST, in New York Herald.

Cabinet Members Allowed in Congress? FIRST ANNUAL REPORT OF SECY FALL UNTAPPED WEALTH ESTIMATED AT 450,000,000,000 IN THE MORE THAN 400,000,000 ACRES OF LAND MELD IN PUBLIC DOMAIN WASHINGTON. — An untapped wealth estimated at a minimum of $150,000,000,000 is contained in the more than 400,000,000 acres of land still held in the public domain, Secretary Fall of the Interior department says in his first annual report. Coal and oil form the bulk of this wealth, the total coal deposits being estimated at 110,000,000,000 tons, and the oil deposits at 1,325,000,000 barrels, with an additional 50,000,000,000 barrels of shale oil. From the development of these resources the federal government, Secretary Fall says, would realize by way of royalties, rentals, etc. a total of $12,387,500,000, divided as follows: Coal in public ownership: Bituminous, 10,000,000,000 tons; at 10 cents royalty, $1,000,000,000. Subbituminous, 30,000,000,000 tons; at 8 cents royalty, $2,400,000,000. Lignite, 50,000,000,000 tons; at 5 cents royalty, $2,500,000,000. Oil in public ownership (crude). THUS does the Congressional Record record history in the making: Mr. Lenham—Mr. Chairman, there is now happening in the city of Washington what is destined, in my judgment, to prove an historic event. At this time there is floating over the Capital city the United States navy dirigible C-7, the first ship of the air filled with helium which has ever flown in the entire world. This accomplishment marks a new era in aviation. This wonderful inert gas affords the long-sought combination of safety and efficiency. It was my pleasure this morning to attend the landing of the C-7, observed also by many interested spectators who have labored faithfully in the inauguration and development of the helium project. It came to the earth with the ease and grace of a large bird, bearing a confident crew that displayed no nervousness, despite the fact that this was an initial experimental trip. In a flurry of snow it completed its aerial journey from Norfolk, Va., in less than four hours, and is now be- LET THE CHIRS FALL WHERE THEY MAY THE eyes of all European correspondents were turned the oth- er day upon congress. It was the first opportunity for many of them to see that body in action, and so the attendance was large. The fact that the President was to deliver his message added interest to the occasion. Keenly on the alert for some significant hint, ready to read a meaning into his words that did not exist and hoping to see some dramatic reference to the conference that would stir the world, they went in a body, and felt highly honored to be placed on the floor of the house. They returned, however, no wiser, but somewhat sadder. The session R EVIVAL of the plan to change the rules of congress to give R the rules of congress to give cabinet members the privileges of the floor, without a vote, to make the new national budget law more effective, is in progress here. The national council of the National Economic league, composed of 3,000 presidents and professors of universities, judges, bankers, lawyers, manufacturers, and others, has issued the results of a referendum among its members on this subject. The league regards the question as "the most important one before the country at this time" with the exception of international relations. Under the system established by the new law signed by President Harding last June the national budget is prepared by a bureau, of which Gen. Charles G. Dawes is director. To give it consideration a budget committee has been created in the house, the finance committee performing for the senate. It is pointed out no opportunity is given for the executive to defend or explain the budget's proposal public before either branch of congress as 700,000,000 barrels at $2. $1,400,000, 000; at 12½ cents royalty, $175,000,000 Shale oil, 50,000,000,000 barrels at $2 $100,000,000,000; at 5 cents royalty, $5, 000,000,000.

A novel incident occurred shortly after the landing at Anacostia. Those gathered about the dirigible were requested to smoke to their hearts' content and were furnished the necessary materials for this purpose. Even the pilot in the cockpit was permitted to partake freely of his favorite pipe. Had the dirigible been filled with hydrogen, smoking would have been a reckless flirtation with death. The safe minimum distance of approach to a hydrogen vessel, under such circumstances, is perhaps 100 yards. merely served to mystify their conceptions of American politics. The one thing that apparently made the greatest impression upon them was the sight of a correspondent for a Kansas newspaper sitting in the press gallery during the invocation, sharpening his pencil as he prepared for action. To a fellow correspondent who remonstrated with him that he was showering the heads of congressmen with lead and pine shavings, he replied with becoming dignity: "Let the chips fall where they may." Everyone in congress was happy for an hour and basked in the light that had so long been turned on the conference performers. Our congress is a jealous congress and does not look with favor upon the intrusion of diplomatic gatherings in Washington. Harely have the members of congress had such an audience. All the big wigs among the foreign delegations were there. The diplomatic gallery was filled to overflowing. The press galleries were crowded. It was almost a question of "standing room only." MOVE TO CHANGE RAILS OF CONGRESS TO GIVE CABINET MEMBERS THE PRIVILEGY OF THE FLOOR a whole. The Good committee itself, which prepared the bill, in its report declared: "The plan does provide for an executive initiation of the budget, but the President's responsibility ends when he has prepared the budget and transmitted it to congress." In criticism of the measure, the National Economic league says it will not give "visible government" and will not fix responsibility in a way to help the voter. The only way executive heads can be made responsible and the voter intelligent is to require the cabinet to appear personally before the appropriating, representative branch, and explain and defend their acts and proposals.

She was buried at West River, Md. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Gaines, a popular young married couple, recently moved into their beautiful new home at 2518 Humboldt. Mr. and Mrs. Gaines have set a notable example by their thrift and energy which we hope will find ready adoption by many newlyweds. The Negro Woman's Club Home kept open doors Sunday afternoon from 3 till 5 o'clock, with Mrs. W. A. Gatewood and Mrs. Mildred Westbrook presiding, assisted by Mrs. Irene Fife and Mrs. Adah Webster. A short program was rendered and a goodly number attended. Hugh Baker arrived home Thursday morning from Detroit, Mich. It has been about five years since Mr. Baker left Denver. He has traveled all through the East, but says there is no place like Denver and is glad to be among his cosmopolitan friends once more. Mrs. Parthenia George and Miss Eva Cammel were hosts to a very pretty buffet luncheon at 2819 Glenarm street on Friday evening of last week, at which fifty guests were entertained most royally. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Harris and Mr. and Mrs. Victor Fairbanks were the special guests of honor. Mrs. Mae Brooks presided gracefully at the serving table. Messrs. Ralph Motley, Wesley Lyons, Elbert Robinson and Fred Clement put on a New Year's party at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. S. Contee Saturday night that will be long remembered. This quartette of "good fellows" know how to entertain and every person so fortunate as to be present Saturday night had a wonderful time. The dinner party given by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. Brooks Saturday evening at their residence, 2530 Franklin street, was an exceptionally pretty affair. An eight-course dinner was served. Those sharing the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Brooks were: Mr. and Mrs. O. Dishman, Mr. and Mrs. Eljah Jackson, Dr. and Mrs. J. H. P. Westbrook, Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Bryant, Mesdames Geo. F. Robinson, Jos. Gaines and Mr. Emmett McFadden. A Yuletide function of unusual brilliancy and beauty was given by Maj. and Mrs. Thos. Campbell on Saturday evening at their residence, 614 Delaware street. With a profusion of Christmas decorations and festoons of vari-colored lights, the cozy cottage of the Campbells afforded a fairy land scene. Attorney and Mrs. S. E. Carey, Mr. and Mrs. C. N. Pitt, Mr. and Mrs. Jos. D. D. Rivers and Mr. and Mrs. Geo. W. Gross were the fortunate guests. The real blaze of New Year's glory was reflected in a lavish function given by Mesdames O. Dishman and Leon De Loache Sunday afternoon from 3 til 6 o'clock, at 2439 Gilpin street. The Dishman home, always beautiful, was simply gorgeous in Christmas decorative colors. One hundred and fifty guests were in attendance. Assisting Mrs. Dishman and Mrs. De Loache were Mesdames C. N. Pitt, Geo. W. Gross, Orna McCormick, Horace Mason and Miss Agnes Wright. ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION MARRIED. Mrs. Mabel Chinn Fallings announces the marriage of her daughter, Jennice Berdell Violet Chinn, to Timothy Granville Clark, in New York City, N. Y., Sunday, Dec. 18, 1921, ceremony performed by Rev. W. Brown of the A. M. E. Zion-Church. Before leaving, Miss Chinn was the recipient of many costly and beautiful gifts and was royally entertained by Mesdames C. Flemings, Lucille Polk Grant; Misses Carrie Brickler, Mary Hicks, Marie Parks, Corrina South, Neto and Gladys Smith, and others. Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Clark are located at No. 103 W. 141st street, and have been the inspiration of many social honors. MR. OCTAVE DISHMAN FINDS SOMETHING "WISHED ON HIM." It is not often that a perfectly good-natured, home-loving man has his dreams of an evening of such bliss as a good supper, "comfy" slippers and the old cob pipe of ancient vintage can give, rudely shattered, but that is just what happened to our genial friend, Octave Dishman, Tuesday night. Some of his Seattle friends, remembering his ample capacity for sea food, as exhibited on a visit to the Pacific coast metropolis a few years ago, sent him a bevy of huge crabs and lobsters for a New Year's dinner. So on Tuesday evening, while Mrs. Dishman had the pot steaming to full strength and Octave was whetting up his appetite up to 110, the word leaked out as to what was going on in the Dishman home and in slipped Ralph Motley, Frank Barbee, Miss Agnes Wright and Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Gross, with the result that the sea food dinner was ship wrecked in a few minutes. Now "Dish" is trying hard to figure out who "wished" this bunch on him at just that particular hour. Leon De Loache denies responsibility, but the finger of suspicion points strongly toward him. VESPER SERVICES AT THE CHURCH OF THE REDEEMER The Community Service at the Church of the Holy Redeemer will have as the principal speaker on Sunday the Rev. Mr. Vosburgh. Mr. Vosburgh has traveled extensively, not only in America, but also in Europe and Asia. And his address should be both interesting and instructive. Our own Professor Valarez Spratlin will render the musical selections. The whole community is invited to this service, which commences at 5 o'clock promptly and closes at 6. MRS. BLOSSOM FRANKLIN ENTER TAINS. The beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Clyde R. Franklin was the scene of much pleasure last Friday night, December 29, at a progressive whist affair. The evening was spent in much merriment, being entertained by three string instruments, the entertainers being Messrs. Edwards, Cooley and Graham. The house was very prettily decorated, the lights being decorated in Christmas colors, and about twenty couples enjoyed the hours from 9 till 1. Three prizes were given, the first a beautiful box of candy, was won by Mrs. Vivian Greenwood. The second, a beautiful silk necktie, was won by Mr. Joe Howard. The boobie prize, which was a green candy cane, tied in a red ribbon, was won by Mr. James Bolden. The latter part of the evening was happily entertained by the popular Messrs. Joe and Bill Howard. Refreshments were served and at 12:45 the pleasing little hostess played "Home Sweet Home," and a Happy New Year was extended to all. Little Mrs. Franklin, with her charming personality, is winning many friends and the ease with which she conducted the evening has surely proved her one of the most entertaining hostesses of the season. DENVER BRANCH N. A. A. C. P. MEETS. Wednesday night at the Y. W. C. A. the Denver Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. held a most interesting meeting. Members from practically all of the standing committees were present and listened to an able address on "Committee Responsibility." Beginning with next month the association will meet on the second Thursday night in each month at the Negro Women's Club Home. These meetings will be open to all members. THE DENVER CIVIC ASSOCIATION STARTS NEW YEAR WITH A LARGE AND ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING. HON. ERNEST MORRIS MADE A BRILLIANT ADDRESS. Arrangements for the Lincoln-Dougless Banquet Completed for Tuesday Evening, February 14, at the Chamber of Commerce Building. THE NEW YEAR, 1922, bids fair to be the biggest and most prosperous year in the history of the Denver Colored Civic Association if the great meeting held last Wednesday evening can be taken as a sign of the future. Notwithstanding the zero weather a large and appreciative audience was present to hear the Hon. Ernest Morris, who addressed the association. His address was replete with wisdom and marked for its eloquence and elegant diction. Mr. Morris seemed to be at ease and in fine spirit, and all who were fortunate enough to hear him were most highly pleased and benefited, and listened to him with rapt attention. The committee on entertainment reported upon the plans of the Lincoln-Douglass banquet which will be held in the large dining hall of the Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday evening, February 14, at 8 p. m. Tickets will be on sale at $1.50 per plate. Only 250 plates can be accommodated at this banquet, hence all members are advised to purchase tickets at once for themselves and any of their friends. The program committee has selected Mr. Geo. W. Grqss to make the address on Frederick Douglass and Attorney S. E. Cary to make the address on Abraham Lincoln. Attorney E. P. Blakemore will preside as tostmaster. There will be short speeches by several of the members after the main addresses. The sale of banquet tickets will positively close at 6 p. m. on Saturday, Feb. 11, 1922. All reservations for banquet tickets must potitively be accompanied with the money. For tickets, see: Thos.

We let this great magazine tell its own story: THE DYER BILL. "In the December issue of the Crisis we told of the reporting out favorably of the Dyer anti-lynching bill by the House committee on the Judiciary. Opponents of the bill apparently dared not come out openly and fight it and we therefore had to contend with a secret opposition in Congress on which it was hard to place a finger. An attempt was made to recommit the bill to the judiciary committee, but that was blocked. Both Mr. Johnson and Mr. White have spent much time in Washington working on the matter and keeping an eye on developments. "When we found that efforts to change the bill were being considered, we renewed our efforts to secure the passage of the unamended Dyer bill. One of the steps taken will show clearly how effectively and efficiently the machinery which we have been eleven years in building, functions. On Monday, November 14, at 3:45 p. m., a telegram was received at the National office from Mr. Johnson, who was then in Washington, stating that two influential Republican members of the house were apathetic in support of the bill and apparently were blocking early consideration and a vote on the bill. By 4 o'clock night letter telegrams had been sent to fifteen of our large branches in every section of the United States, urging them to send and have sent telegrams to these two men which would show how public opinion was demanding passage of the bill. Within twenty-four hours, so we have learned, more than 500 telegrams had flooded the office of these two members of Congress! Both men have since assured us of their hearty support. That is the sort of effective organization that we need—that we must have. To show how loyally and ably the branches worked, we quote one example—that of the Denver Branch—which secured telegraphic endorsement of the bill from Governor Shoup of Colorado, Mayor Bailey of Denver, Bishop Johnson of the diocese of Colorado of the Protestant Episcopal church, the Rt. Rev. Ingley, Bishop-Coadjutor, Judge Whitford of the Colorado Supreme Court, Republican National Committeeman Vivian, Mrs. Redd, president of the Federation of Colored Women's Clubs of Colorado and Wyoming, and from many other prominent white and colored individuals and organizations. "Congress took up the bill on December 15." Those called in by the president of the Denver branch to aid in securing these powerful endorsements were: Rev. W. H. Thomas, Maj. Thos. Campbell, president of the Denver Colored Civic Association; Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, Jas. C. Cooper and J. W. Jackson. It was a triumph of team work and the influence of every Denver member stands behind the Dyer bill. IN MEMORIAM. In loving memory of our beloved daughter, Cleo Irene Hobson, who passed away January 7, 1921. To join the heavenly host above Where there is but perpetual love. Her life on earth was filled with cheer But when death came she had no fear, For she always lived a life that meant, In heaven at rest, it would be spent. Oh, how we miss you, Cleo, dear, For you, we often shed a tear; But we hope to meet you on the bea- tiful shore When life on earth shall be no more. It's hard to bear your loss, dear heart, But sooner or later we all must part; To meet again on that beautiful shore Where parting, we know, will be no more. MR. AND MRS. S. H. HOBSON. DEATH OF MRS. J. C. GENTRY. Mrs. Irene Cornelia Gentry, wife of J. C. Gentry, 3714 Franklin, passed away last Sunday evening between the hours of 6 and 7, after a lingering illness. The Gentry family have long been residents of Denver and enjoy the highest standing in church and fraternal circles. About a year ago Mrs. Gentry took a trip to Arizona in the hope of benefitting her health, but the relief sought was only temporary. She was beloved by a large host of friends and was a prominent member of Household of Ruth No. 4130, which order had charge of the burial services and turned out in a solid body. The funeral was held from Shorter Church at 2 o'clock Thursday afternoon, Rev W. H. Thomas officiating. THE COLORADO STATESMAN extends to the bereaved ones its heartfelt sympathy. OBITUARY RECORD.

THE GREAT WAR SECRETARY OF WAR WEEKS AND SERGEANT WOODFILL Photo by International 4 Here come the Doughboys, with dirt behind their ears. Here come the Doughboys, their pay is in arrears; The Artillery, the Cavalry and the lousy Engineers— They couldn't lick the Doughboys in 100,000 years. —OLD INFANTRY SONG By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN S OME time or other President Harding may perhaps have a chance to affix his signature to an act of congress giving to Sergt. Samuel Woodfill, U. S. A., Fort Thomas, Ky., a captain's permanent commission and retirement at that rank. You see Sergeant Woodfill earned his captaincy on the fighting line in France. Also his 20 years of active service entitle him to retirement. Also the military authorities have practically picked him out as the greatest fighting man of the A. E. F. So it would seem as if America could do no less than this for her "hero of heroes"—a "Regular" of the United States army and a professional soldier. Anyway, Senator Richard P. Ernst of Kentucky has introduced such a bill in the senate. And Representative Roy O. Woodruff of Michigan has done the same in the house. Representative John S. Benham of Indiana started the movement in the house. You see, he was proud as a pencock because Sergeant Woodfill enlisted in 1901 from his district—the fourth. Benham had the clerk read a paragraph from General Order No. 16, bearing date of January 22, 1919, and signed by Gen. Peyton C. March, chief of staff—Lieutenant Woodfill's citation accompanying his award of the Congressional Medal of Honor. Benham also put into the Congressional Record Woodfill's army record in full from his enlistment in 1901. Then Woodruff of Michigan, who was a major of infantry in France and at one time, after the armistice, was Woodfill's commanding officer, was given the floor. As a preliminary to giving notice that he would introduce the bill mentioned in the foregoing, he set forth his first-hand knowledge of Woodfill's efficiency as a lieutenant in the Bordenaux embarkation camp and related how he returned from receiving the Congressional Medal of Honor at Chaumont without opening his mouth about it. "Excellent" behavior, efficiency and modesty bulk large in Woodfill's makeup. The presentation at Chaumont took place on the quadrangle British G. H. Q. on Sunday at 3:30 before a large crowd of American, British, French, Belgian and Italian officers. Headquarters battalion acted as guard of honor. Woodfill received other awards in addition to the Congressional Medal of Honor. He received the Legion of Honor at the hands of the high admiral of the French navy and Maj. Gen. Hanson E. Ely presented to him the Croix de Guerre. (with palm). Later he was awarded the Legion of Honor and the Order of Prince Danilo I (Montenegro). He also wears the Victory Medal with three clasps, the Philippine and Mexican border ribbons and an expert rifleman's medal. Notwithstanding Woodfill's exploit and his citations he remained undiscovered as the "hero of heroes." And Woodfill certainly didn't help along the discovery. When he went to Louisville with returning troops in the summer of 1919, a real soldier and a real hero at last after all the eventful years that had passed since he enlisted there in 1901, there were thousands hungry for such a tale of the war that Woodfill held in his bosom. But Woodfill didn't tell it. He went quietly about his work and returned to his command. When he was discharged as an officer, he kept to the habit he had followed from his Philippine days. He enlisted at about $94 a month. Then came the preparations for the burial of the "unknown soldier" at Washington on Armistice day. The board of army officers, searching the records for the purpose of selecting a soldier from the infantry to act as a body-bearer for the unknown dead, picked Sergeant Woodfill. When the name was sent to Pershing, the commander of the A. E. F. exclaimed: "Why, I have already picked that man as the greatest single hero in the Ameri- van forces." General Pershing's report on the heroes and sol- liers in the World war contains this mention of Woodfill's deed, given the place of honor over two rases of distinguished heroism which already have received America's recognition: "Deeds of valor are too numerous to mention here. Outstanding was the heroism of Lieutenant Samuel Woodfill, Fifth division, in attacking single- nanded a series of German machine gun nests near Cunel and killing the crews of each in turn until reduced to the necessity of assaulting the last detachment with a pick, dispatching them all. And ARMISTICE DAY BURIAL OF "UNKNOWN SOLDIER." CROSS SHOWS SERGEANT WOODFILL of Sergt. Alvin C. York of the Eighty-second division in standing off and capturing 132 Germans after his patrol was literally surrounded and outnumbered ten to one; and Major Charles S. Whittlesey and his men of the Seventy-seventh division, when their battalion was cut off in the Argonne, in refusing to surrender and holding out until finally relieved. Doubtless many died in performing deeds of unknown heroism, as no survivor remained to testify." Sergeant York, who got early publicity from the war correspondents that made his name a household word, killed 25 Germans in a few minutes with rifle and pistol and captured several machine guns and crews. Marshal Foch says he "did the greatest thing accomplished by any single soldier during the World war." The draft found him a church elder and a conscientious objector in the Tennessee mountains. He has consistently turned down every proposition to make money out of his fame—$50,000 and royalties estimated at $150,000 from the moving pictureville; $1,500 a week for 100 weeks from vaudeville; huge endowments from several religious denominations. He is working to establish a mountain non-sectarian school; has raised $12,000 by lecture and has pledged $20,000 more. When York was discharged the United States government gave him $60. Bills introduced in the senate and house in his behalf have come to nothing. Lieutenant Colonel Whittlesey is "gone west," God rest his soul! He "disappeared from the ship in the night" a short time ago, en route from New York to Havana on the Tolon. His going was carefully arranged. Three years after the war ended for others it killed him. He was its victim just as surely as if he had died with those of his "Lost Battalion" who never came back out of the Argonne forest. "Over There" he could say to the enemy's demands for surrender, "Go to H-1!" Over here he was forced to surrender to the sorrows of the aftermath. He felt he had to help all the wounded and crippled and dying and jobless who besieged him for help. The "Unknown Dead" funeral at Arlington was the last straw. He broke under the strain. Woodfill is the only professional soldier of the three—a "Regular" of the United States army. The meaning of the old "Regular" song quoted is that the infantry is the backbone of the army. York was a natural-born fighting man prepared for a great opportunity by environment. Whittlesey's trumpth was of the spirit. Woodfill is a professional soldier trained to deadly efficiency. Woodfill's father, a veteran of the Mexican and Civil wars, "brought him up to be a soldier," teaching him to use a rifle at the age of seven. His service in detail, as furnished by the War department, shows that he began in 1901 with three-years' service in the Philippines. He then saw eight years' service in Alaska. He served on the Mexican border, won a commission as second lieutenant and was assigned to the Sixteenth infantry of the Fifth division. His A. E. F. service was from July 12, 1917 to October 31, 1919. His character mark is "excellent" without exception, usually with the addition, "a model soldier." He served as private, corporal, lance corporal, sergeant and lieutenant and was discharged from his A. E. F. service as captain. His total active service at the time of his last enlistment was 19 years, 4 months and 21 days. This with his "double time" makes him eligible for retirement (30 years' service) at 40 per cent pay. The citation describing Woodfill's exploit in killing 19 Germans in two hours is rather sketchy. Here's Woodfill's own account of the performance—at least the high points of it: "We were partly screened by a low fog, but the moment we appeared on the crest the Germans began to pour in shells and machine gun bullets. The enemy was entrenched, and also hidden by heavy green woods, and was hard to locate. "Quick action was needed. I signaled several men near me to get forward, and I rushed ahead and worked my way across an opening of about 150 yards by crawling from shell hole to shell hole. Then I reached a small knoll, detoured to the left, and worked my way until I got to an unimproved road, from which I could crawl up a muddy ditch about ten yards long. When I did this I could see the gun position. "I didn't lose any time. I slid my rif forward and placed the butt against my shoulder without exposing any part of my body, then raised on my elbows enough to see the gun and killed five gunners in the pit. One enemy gunner attempted to retreat, but I killed him with my pistol. I then feared to remain in my position longer, so I dashed to cover of the brush and ran on to an officer, who sprang up to disarm me. I killed him with my automatic. I had only gone a short distance when I located another machine gun. I crawled to a flanking position close up to the-gun and sniped five of its, crew and silenced the gun. I located a third machine gun position, and, using the same method of approach as previously applied, I worked my way to a flank position and then killed five of the gunners. There was heavy firing coming from the right front which caused me to take refuge in the enemy's entrenchment, and as I dashed into it I nearly jumped on two Germans who were crouching there. One of them started to level a Luger on me. I fired first. The German doubled up and dropped his weapon. The other one reached for his rifle. I squeezed the trigger on him, but my gun failed to fire. I dropped it and grabbed a pickaxe and hit the man a crushing blow on the head. As I turned I saw the other German had regained his pistol, so I let him have it with the pickaxe, too." Sergeant Woodfill's wife was Miss Lorena B. Wiltshire, born in Covington, Ky., and a direct descendant of Daniel Boone. He had known Miss Wiltshire for four years before he went overseas, but they had postponed their marriage in order to accumulate enough money to make the first payment on a little home of their own. The wedding took place December 26, 1917. She adds a final decoration—that of "Model Husband." Woodfill is thirty-eight years old. He stands five feet, eleven inches, weighs 180 pounds and has a 42-inch chest. Woodfill was made much of by official Washington. It was a severe ordeal for him, but, being under orders, he bore his honors with soldierly fortitude. At the funeral of the "Unknown Soldier" he was perhaps the "observed of all observers."

TEMPERATURE OF OVEN IMPORTANT Many Factors Must Be Given Serious Consideration in Baking Cake or Pudding. GOOD WAYS OF MAKING BREAD Ovens of Different Sizes and Construction Do Not Always Give Same Results—Excellent Suggestions Given. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) It must be remembered that there is no one method of managing ovens which can be expected to prove invariably superior to all others. There are always at least two ways of baking any given product. For instance, popovers are usually put into a hot oven (about $450^{\circ}\mathrm{F}$ ), which is then reduced in temperature about $50^{\circ}\mathrm{F}$ ; yet equally delicious popovers can be made by putting them into a cold oven and bringing the heat up gradually through a somewhat longer time. Two Ways of Baking Bread. Similarly, bread dough may be allowed to rise until it has somewhat more than doubled its original bulk, and put into a hot oven (400° F. or a little more), then the heat reduced to finish baking; or it may be put into a moderate oven (350° F. to 375° F.) before it is quite so well risen, and allowed to complete the rising process while the oven is being heated up to 400° F. or a little higher, after which the temperature is reduced to complete the baking process. Results are equally A Good Oven Thermometer Is Almost Indispensable. good in either case, if the procedure has been properly followed, is the opinion of the United States Department of Agriculture. Again, ovens of varying sizes and construction do not always bake in the same way, even though the thermometer may record the same temperature in every case. A joint will roast, or a cake or loaf of bread bake quite as well in a large, heavy oven (coal range, heavy "fireless" gas range) at EXCELLENT WAYS TO USE LEFT-OVER MEAT Three Suggestions for Utilizing Lamb and Mutton. Members of Family May Be Tired of Having Roasts Served in Thin Slices—Poached Eggs Will Help Minced Concoction. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Coal roast lamb and mutton thinly sliced is excellent, but the family may be tired of having the remains of the roast served that way, or the pieces may be too small to slice. In either event, these suggestions for utilizing this kind of left-over meat, offered by food specialists in the United States Department of Agriculture, will be appreciated by the one who prepares the family's meals. Minced Lamb. Chop pieces of cold roast lamb fine. A pint of chopped meat will serve a family of five or six. Rub 1 tablespoonful each of butter and flour together; add ½ pint of milk, stir until boiling; add tablespoonful of finely chopped parsley, ½ teaspoonful of salt, and a dash of cayenne. Add the meat and stand over hot water until served. If served on toast, trim the toast and butter and cover with a thick layer of the mince, making a little hollow in the center. Into this hollow (if you have plenty of eggs and want a heartier dish) put a poached egg. Six will be required for this quantity of meat. Steamed Mutton and Rice. 4 cups cooked or 1 Few drops onion cut raw rice juice. 4 cups cooked or 1 cup raw rice. 2 cups cooked nut into small pieces. 1 tablespoon oonful chopped parsley. ½ cupful byad crumbs. 1 teaspoonful salt. % teaspoonful pep per. per. Stock or water. Grease a mold or a bowl of about $1 \frac{1}{2}$ quarts capacity, and line with cooked rice. Heat the meat with the other ingredients, using enough stock to make a mixture that is moist, but will hold its shape. Pack the meat in the center of the mold, and cover with the remaining rice, grease the cover of the mold (if a bowl is used, a plate a temperature $50^{\circ}$ lower than in a smaller, thinner walled gas range oven through which a blast of hot air is rapidly circulating. Choose temperatures with the following principles in mind: 1. The larger sizes of loaf, roll, muffin, potatoes and such usually require lower temperatures for long periods, and the smaller sizes higher temperatures and shorter periods, other things being equal. 2. The shape of the loaf or roll is important. A half-pound sponge cake or angel-food cake baked in a Turk's head pan (center tube) stands a comparatively high temperature better than does the same weight of cake baked as an ordinary loaf. 3. The composition of the batter or dough largely governs the baking temperature. A plain loaf cake containing comparatively little sugar, eggs and fat (i.e. a "cheap" cake) requires greater care and a more gradually applied heat than does a richer cake; it should therefore be put into a cool oven in order to get the best results. Different ovens vary somewhat in the temperature necessary for the best results in baking, but the following have been found generally successful in baking various products: Oven Temperatures. Product to be Range of temperature baked. over which it may be heated. Biscuits, baking powder ... 430° F. to 500° F. Bread ... 350° F. to 450° F.

This recipe, it will be noted, suggests the use of bread crumbs instead of flour for thickening, a way of saving bread which might otherwise be wasted, and of having variety, as a different texture results than when flour is used. Cutlets of Cold Mutton. From a leg of mutton, cooked rare, cut pieces about the size of an ordinary loin chop. These may be fried in a little fat, or egged, crumbed, and fried in deep fat, or they may be brushed over with the fat, and broiled. The result is more like meat cooked for the first time than the ordinary warmed-over meat. Cutlets so prepared may be served with any of the sauces served with chops. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Rub streaks on polished tables with a little camphorated oil. Avoid putting wet leaves of lettuce in a salad. The dressing will not cling to them. * * * * Cornmeal rubbed on grease spots on a carpet will cause the spots to disappear. * * * * If a lamp is placed so as to reflect properly, a mirror will light up a dark corner. * * * * Your light suede gloves and shoes can be nicely cleaned with finely ground oatmeal. * * * * Angelica is a desirable cake decoration because it is slightly sweet, edible, and green in color. * * * * You can grease your griddle nicely by tying a thin piece of beef suet in a thin cloth and passing this over the griddle. A bottle of turpentine should be kept in every household. A few drops sprinkled where cockroaches gather will exterminate them. THE KITCHEN CABINET Copyright, 1921, Western Newspaper Union. A friend is he who sets his heart upon us, is happy with us and delights in us; and does for us what we want, is willing and fully engaged to do all he can for us, on whom we can rely in all cases.—Channing. MORE GOOD THINGS Everybody likes apple dumplings, but the following is one a little more elaborate than the everyday affair and very good: Baked Apple Dumplings.—Select tart apples that do not lose their shape in cooking. Pare evenly after removing the cores, put the apples into water enough day affair and very good: Baked Apple Dumplings.—Select tart apples that do not lose their shape in cooking. Pare evenly after removing the cores, put the apples into water enough to float them; add a cupful of sugar and cook until almost done. Remove with the skimmer and cook the sirup until thick. Place each apple on a square of pastry; fill the cores with butter, lemon juice and sugar and drop the sirup over the apples. Moisten the tips of the pastry and press together over the top of the apple. Put on a baking tin and bake a nice brown. Serve with cream just sour enough to become thick, into which has been stirred powdered sugar or marshmallow sauce. Economical Plum Pudding.—Mix in the order given, one cupful of fine sifted crumbs, one and one-half cupfuls of flour, two tablespoonfuls of baking powder, one teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of finely chopped suet, one-half cupful each of raisins seeded and chopped, one of well-washed currants. A few slices of citron may be added if desired. Beat one egg with the juice and grated rind of one lemon and two teaspoonfuls of allspice; add one cupful of molasses and mix with the dry ingredients. Add milk or water to make a thick batter. Pour into a large ring mold or two cylinder-shaped molds and steam two hours. Vinegar Candy.—Stir three cupfuls of sugar into one and one-half cupfuls of pure white vinegar. Cook until a spoonful dropped in water makes a soft ball. Pour on a flat dish or a slightly greased slab and as soon as possible begin to pull—pulling while it is soft and warm gives it its light and porous texture. Continue to pull as long as the candy is flexible. Cottage Cheese and Nut Salad.—To two cupfuls of seasoned cottage cheese add one-half cupful of thinly sliced Brazil nuts. Mix with boiled dressing and serve on endive or head lettuce. We can never replace a friend. When a man is fortunate enough to have several, he finds them all different. No man has a double friendship.—Schiller. TEMPTING DISHES Pistachio nuts are so rich in food value and so tasty that they make a most delicious addition to any dish. The pretty green is also a valuable asset to any combination. COFFEE CUP Apple, Celery, and Pistachio Salad. — Quarter three bright skinned apples without removing the peeling. Cut into thin slices. Cut one bunch of celery into small pieces and place in cold water with a little lemon juice. Prepare French dressing, chill all the ingredients, adding enough paprika to the dressing to give it color. Mix one cupful of blanched pistachio nuts with the other ingredients and serve on lettuce. The combination of the white of the celery, the red of the apple and the green of the nuts making a very pretty combination. Arrowroot Jelly.—Beat one cupful of any flavored fruit juice, like raspberry, strawberry or any other well liked, to the boiling point, add one cupful of water and enough sugar to sweeten. To four tablespoonfuls of arrowroot add a little cold water and when mixed stir into the hot fruit juice. Stir and cook for twenty minutes. Remove from the heat and pour into molds. Serve cold with whipped sweetened cream. Rice Snow.—Place a cupful of rice and a teaspoonful of salt in a clean salt bag, tie at the top to allow plenty of room for the rice to swell. Drop the bag into boiling water and keep boiling for an hour. Then empty into a serving dish. A hot chocolate sauce is enjoyed by those who are fond of chocolate. Serve with the sauce as a dessert or with butter as a vegetable. Carrot Pudding.—Take one cupful each of finely minced suet, grated raw potato, grated raw carrot, granulated sugar, seedless raisins and currants. Add allspice to flavor and enough flour to make a soft dough. Place in a buttered pudding dish, then in a steamer and steam two and one-half to three hours. This pudding takes the place of plum pudding. Beef Tea.—Put a pound of thick round steak in a hot frying pan for five to ten minutes. Remove, cut in bits, squeeze through a fruit press. Season the juice and serve hot. Heat by standing over hot water. Minced Chicken.—Finely mince the breast of a chicken, add a tablespoonful of cream, the yolk of an egg and a little salt. Heat in a buttered dish and serve accompanied with toast well buttered.
