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 DYER ANTI-LYNCHING BILL SAVED AFTER CRISIS N. A. A. C. P. Secretary Makes Report of Week in National Capital. VOL. XXVIII. DYER ANTI-LYNCHING SA N. A. A. C. P. Secret Week in Natl THE DYER anti-lynching bill, H. R. 13, is saved. This was the statement of James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who returned to New York from Washington on Friday, May 26, after spending a week fighting for the Dyer bill through the most critical stage of its existence. During that time an unfavorable report on the Dyer bill by the judiciary committee of the Senate on Monday, May 22, was narrowly averted, and the Republican leaders of the Senate were convinced that favorable action was absolutely essential. During his week in the national capital the N. A. A. C. P. secretary was in constant conference with Senators Borah, Lodge, Curtis, Capper, Calder, Ernst, Shortridge, Sterling, McCormick, Dillingham and Watson, and with Representatives Dyer, Burton and Madden. As a result of the secretary's efforts, not only has an unfavorable report been averted, but the Senate judiciary committee on Thursday, May 24, met and decided to postpone action for two weeks, during which time efforts would be devoted to making the bill absolutely unassailable when it is brought upon the floor of the Senate. Senator Borah said to the secretary before he left Washington that if there was anything he (Senator Borah) could do to save the life of a single Negro from a mob, he would do it. During Mr. Johnson's week in Washington he presented to the members of the committee on the judiciary and leading Republican senators, briefs upholding the constitutionality of the Dyer bill, prepared by Moorfield Storey and James A. Cobb, chairmen of the legal committee, Washington branch N. A. A. C. P. A third brief was sent to the Senate by William H. Lewis, formerly assistant U. S. attorney general, who had been requested by Mr. Johnson to do so. A fourth brief was sent to the Senate by Butler R. Wilson, secretary of the Boston branch N. A. A. C. P. In the course of the week at Washington, the N. A. A. C. P. secretary made clear to Republican leaders that a failure to act favorably on the Dyer anti-lynching bill would have three disastrous results: 1. It would constitute a confession on the part of the federal government of inability to deal with America's shame and would leave the Negro hopeless of that protection against the mob owed him by the government to which he gives his allegiance. 2. It would be interpreted as a license to mobs and might be followed by a reign of lynching terror too horrible to be described. 3. It would be a repudiation of the pledge made by the Republican party in its national platform that action would be taken on lynching, and would more than anything else discredit that party among colored voters. Mr. Johnson pointed out to the Republican leaders in Washington that the primary elections in several states State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House RELIABLE PE RAD THE JOURN DENVI ISIS t of KING Alexand had shown the strong sentiment for the Dyer bill, a sentiment it would not be safe to ignore. In Indiana, Senator Beveridge, who had indorsed the bill, had been elected governor over Senator New. In Pennsylvania, Gifford Pinchot had been elected over Mr. Alter, who had opposed the Dyer bill. In conclusion, Mr. Johnson issued the following statement: "Every colored man and woman in the United States ought to make it their primary business to see that the Dyer anti-lynching bill, H. R. 13, is passed by the Seante. Six human beings, all of them Negroes, were burned at the stake in the United States during the fifteen days in the month of May, 1922. If that is not enough to stir colored Americans to united action, then nothing will or can. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People offers everyone an opportunity to work for the Dyer bill. Telegraph your senator. Join the N. A. A. C. P. Write us for information if you want it, at 70 Fifth avenue, New York. Do it now, or, in victory or defeat, remember you had opportunity to take part in a great fight and failed. Remember, this is the time to act." ares stify Speaker Declares Negro Must Justify Emancipation. Speaker Declares Negro Must Justify Emancipation. Instructor at Tuskegee Institute Gives Address at Deducation Ceremonies of Lincoln National Memorial. Washington, May 30.—Lincoln did not die for the Negro alone, but upon that race rests the immediate obligation to justify emancipation, Dr. Robert R. Moton of Tuskegee Institute declared today in his address at the dedication of the national memorial to Abraham Lincoln. "No one is more sensible than the Negro himself of his incongruous position in the great American republic," Dr. Moton said, "but be it recorded to his everlasting credit no failure to reap the full award of his sacrifices has ever in the least degree qualified his loyalty or cooled his patriotic servor." Summarizing the educational and economic progress of the race in the last half century, the speaker expressed it as his opinion that the Negro "has gone far to justify his emancipation and the nation where such achievement is possible is fully worthy of heroic sacrifice." "There is no question that Lincoln died to save the Union," he declared, "and it is equally true that to the last extremity he defended the rights of states, but when the last veteran has stacked his arms and only the memory of high courage and deed devotion remains to inspire noble sons of valiant fathers, the united voice of a grateful posterity will say that the greatness of Lincoln lies in this . . . that he spoke the word that gave freedom to a race. "Twelve million black Americans share the rejoicing of this day. To Lincoln, above all others, we owe the privilege of sharing as fellow citizens in the consecration of this spot." --- DENVER, COLORADO, KING OF THE NEW Alexander Brickler, DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 3 1922 KING OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS MARATHON Alexander Brickler, Noted Negro Athlete, Bears Off Victor's Crown in Great Contest. 10 ALEXANDER BRICKLER, a senior in the college of mechanical engineering at Colorado University, came out victorious in the ninth annual Rocky Mountain Marathon last Saturday morning, in record time and after one of the greatest contests ever witnessed in this now historic event. It was the fourth time Brickler had been an entrant in this classic event and be it said to his credit that he has been placed in this race every year, never coming in farther down than fourth, and always against a great field of athletes. But this year he went out to win the coveted honor, and with Perley M. Lewis, another Colorado U-star, for a partner in training, he soon rounded into a condition that rendered him invincible. Brickler put up a magnificent race and covered the long ten miles from Littleton to the office of the News in the fast time of 1 hour, 3 minutes, and 56 seconds. He crossed the line just 9 seconds ahead of Jesse L. Thomas of Geneo, Colo., who had also put up a beautiful race, as did also Perley M. Lewis, who came in third. As the men rounded into Welton street for the final spurt down the stretch each drew upon his reserve powers and the finish closely resembled a 100-yard dash with Brickler winning by a magnificent burst of speed that brought the huge crowd to a fever pitch of enthusiasm. Brickler lives with his par- --- ents at 2946 Dahlia street, and has long been regarded as one of the foremost athletes of the Rocky Mountain region, and the best two-mile runner on the Silver and Gold team. His victory of Saturday brought the reward of a $75 gold watch. He proved his true sportsmanship in a statement to the Rocky Mountain News following the race in which he gave every credit to his partner, Perley M. Lewis, for his aid in the pace making, and also to the News for the fine spirit in which the race was conducted. The COLORADO STATESMAN is very proud of the achievement of this splendid young man, who has clearly demonstrated that pluck and special fitness will overcome many obstacles. He is a distinct credit to the race and a credit to the great school he represented in the contest last Saturday. BOULDER, COLO., NEWS. Well, it looks like Boulder will have quite a bit of fruit if we still have favorable weather. Boulder had a rain Decoration day. It has been threatening for some time. It will do the gardens and crops good. Mr. White's funeral was held Wednesday, the 24th. Rev. Endicott of Wyoming and Rev. Carter, the pastor, conducted the service. The ladies of the Women's Relief Corps and the G. A. R. attended in a body. The services were held at Allen Chapel. The flowers were beautiful as well as abundantly displayed. Mr. White's niece and son and daughter-in-law from Denver were here to attend the funeral. Mrs. Julia Winn was taken to the University hospital Wednesday, the 12th. Mr. Winn has hopes of her speedy recovery. Mrs. Emma Paige has returned to Boulder from Denver. We think she will remain here. Mrs. Georgia Morrison is feeling much better. The Quad. Prep. students graduate Friday, June 2, at Macky Auditorium at commencement exercises. NO 33 Four Year Old Blind Musician Extraordinary. Four Year Old Blind Musician Extraordinary. FOREST SIMS, the infant son of the Rev. and Mrs. J. Sims of Cleveland, Ohio, was born blind four years ago in Birmingham, Ala., a specially gifted musician and talented pianist. When only 9 months old, the child wonder, who was left propped up at his mother's piano to amuse himself, startled his parents by playing a song on that most intricate musical instrument of many keys. Forest treated an overflow Second Baptist church audience Monday night to a piano recital that was as exceptionally novel as it was highly appreciatively received. The child, with his father, after traveling throughout fifteen states, arrived in Indianapolis, Friday evening of last week from Kentucky. According to Rev. Sims, he has been offered the magnificent sum of $10,000 a year, with family expense, to enter his second "Blind Tom" son on the big time vaudeville circuit. This offer, the Rev. Sims, who was formerly a Baptist pastor in Cleveland, has refused for religious reasons. "On one occasion," said Rev. Sims, "when I was approached by a Southern theater owner on the subject of going into the theatrical business with my baby boy, I agreed to do so only if the theater manager would convert his house into a Baptist church. The suggestion," said Rev. Sims, "had no attraction for the theater man." Forest, who, according to his father, is remarkably spiritually inclined, claims he possessed religion at the unheard of age of two years. The child, who requested baptism, apart from having a memory that is exceptionally wide in scope, never forgets any song he once hears. In the admittedly difficult arts of reproducing and translating, the infant musical wonder is a veritable embodiment of qualities indescribably extraordinary and powerful religiously. It suffices to say that the child is a born genius, the like of which the world has enver before produced. Father and son, who are in the city for an indefinite stay, are the guests of Mrs. Woods, 435 N. West St. Forest, whose engagements cover the city like a blanket, scored, another great success at the Anitoch Baptist church Tuesday night, where he was received with wild enthusiasm. Forest, who becomes inspired with the spirit of his Maker and sings the gospel hymns until the hearts of men tremble, will appear at all the larger churches of the city.—The Freeman. France Shows Interest in Haiti Parliamentary Review Contains Reports of American Seizure and Atrocities. The "Revue Parlementaire" of May 1, published in Paris, France, has been received by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, according to announcement made today, and the publication contains reports of American atrocities in Haiti, also documents showing the diplomatic and business conspiracies leading up to the seizure of the black republic. An article in the "Revue Parlementaire" states that business in Haiti is at a stand-still, exports having almost entirely stopped, that business failures have begun to occur, and that thousands of country people in Haiti, unable to find work in their own country, are leaving in an endeavo, find it elsewhere. The report also contains a letter, dated March 20, 1922, giving an account of the arrest and imprisonment of six members of the staff of the newspaper "Courier Haitien," published in Port au Prince. "We appeal in the name of right, of justice and of human solidarity," says the letter, "to the universal conscience, to the judgment of great free peoples who have always made of right and justice the inflexible rules of their existence." FOREIGN The federal government of Mexico has issued a decree which permits the confiscation of cotton infected with boll weevil. The United States transport Henderson, with Secretary of the Navy Denby and members of the naval academy class of 1881 on board, has sailed from Panama on its way to Japan.

The British government has denied a passport vise to Isadora Duncan, the dancer, on the ground that she became a Russian citizen when she married M. Jessenin, the Ukrainian poet. She is having a hard time getting an American vise. The wave of violent death which is rolling over Ulster continues. Belfast is an armed camp. Barricades of sandbags and barbed wire entanglements are being erected in the principal streets in the city proper and suburbs. The city is full of soldiers. General Amelillo Aguinaldo will sail for the United States early in July, he announced, to attend the convention of Spanish War Veterans, in Los Angeles, in August. The Filipino leader will be accompanied by three native veterans of the Philippine insurrection.

John Duval Dodge of Detroit lost $12,500 in a dice game in 1921, according to the complaint in a suit brought in Circuit Court at Detroit by Al Day, boxing bout referee. Day seeks to collect $10,000 payment of a check for that amount. Veterans of the Civil war and members of the private soldiers and sailors legion refused to march with the American legion on Memorial Day at Port Chester, N.

Grand opera temperaments in Chicago are exceedingly ruffled. Prospective salary reductions, affecting even the great Muratore, are responsible. It seems the "business management" which has taken over the affairs of the Chicago Opera Association, has drawn up a new budget to meet the salaries of the songbirds. The Ku Klux Klan has revoked the commissions of every kleagle in California, from the king kleagle down, after a preliminary inquiry into alleged lawlessness in that state, and has appointed William S. Coburn as king kleagle in charge of the klan's interests in California, it was announced in Atlanta by E. Y. Clarke, imperial klaliff, or supreme vice president of the order. Announcement of a 10 per cent wage increase in factory departments has been made at the offices of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, Akron, Ohio. A shortage of skilled tire workers was responsible for the increase, it was said. Though two men indicted with her for conspiracy to defraud Lloyds Insurance agency, by an alleged "fake" dinner party hold-up and robbery of her jewelry, insured at $22,000, had pleaded guilty and testified for the prosecution at the outset of the trial, Mrs. Sarah L. Robertson, wealthy real estate owner of Deal, N. J., was acquitted by a jury which had been hearing testimony in her case for over a week. Eleven miners were killed in an explosion in Acmar mine of the Alabama Fuel and Iron Company, St. Clair county, according to reports received at the Birmingham, Alabama station of the bureau of mines. Eighty-two men were working in the mine at the time of the explosion, but all except the eleven who were killed escaped. Ten of the bodies have been recovered. The explosion was attributed to mine gas.

Thomas Lee Woolwine, district attorney of Los Angeles county, has announced his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for governor of California. Lucile Erfle, 18 years old, was none the worse despite her encounter with a locomotive on a railroad trestle near Spokane, Wash. The engine knocked the girl into the Spokane river. The crew stopped and fished her out. She lost her pocketbook. California's alien land law violates 30 provisions of the constitution of the United States, nor does it conflict with the treaty between the United States and Japan, according to the unanimous opinion rendered in San Francisco by Judge W. W. Morrow of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, and Judges M. T. Dooling and W. H. Sawiele of the United States District Court. Donald E. Stevenson, railway brakeman, confessed at Everett, Wash., according to the police, that he killed A. A. Almour, Seattle salesman, whose body was found in a patch of woods near Stanwood, Wash. According to the police, Stevenson says he killed Almour with a club during a fight over the question whether or not they would rob a farmer in the vicinity to procure funds to buy "moonshine." The Stillwater and Carbon county, Montana, wool pool, representing all sheepmen of Stillwater county and those on Red Lodge creek, in Carbon county, have contracted the 1922 wool clip for 40½ cents to a Chicago firm, according to a report received at Billings from Columbus.

Lower passenger fares on the railronds will follow the cut in freight rates, high government officials declared in Washington. A strong sentiment of the Interstate Commerce Commission maintains that lower passenger fares are essential to larger revenues from the traveling public. Cyanide was placed on the free list recently after a long battle on the tariff schedules in the Senate. The committee amendment placing a duty of 10 per cent ad valorem was stricken out on a motion offered by Senator Dodd of Nevada and adopted 46 to 14. The restoration of cyanide to the free list is vitally important to the mining industry of the west and to the citrus industry of California, where the chemical is used as a fumigant against destructive insects. President Harding would be requested, under a joint resolution introduced in the Senate by Senator McNary, Republican, Oregon, to call another conference of the powers which ratified the international opium agreement of 1912 for the purpose of considering further means of suppressing international traffic in opium, cocaine and their derivatives.

MIDVALE, REPUBLIC AND INLAND CONCERNS ANNOUNCE CONSOLIDATION. 3 COMPANIES UNITE NEW NAME TO BE NORTH AMERICAN STEEL CORPOR- (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) New York.—Thomas L. Chadbourne, attorney, has announced adoption of a plan whereby the properties of the Midvale Steel and Ordnance Company, Republic Iron and Steel Company and Inland Steel Company will be unified under ownership of Midvale. The name of the new corporation will probably be the North American Steel Corporation. The terms of the plan were outlined as follows: "All existing obligations of the three companies are to be assumed by the unified company. Existing preferred and common stocks will be changed into preferred and common stocks of the unified company. The new preferred stock is to have a par value of $100 per share, is to be 7 per cent cumulative, is to be redeemable at $115 per share and accrued dividends, and is to be convertible for twelve years into new common stock at the rate of five shares of new common for four shares of new preferred. The common stock is to be without par value. "All assets of the three companies are to be owned by the unified company except the Nicetown plant (armor making ordinance and forging) of the Midvale Steel Company, which is to be transferred to a separate company with a capacity of 500,000 shares without par value. "Participation in the new stock will be as follows: "Under the plan, Midvale Company stockholders will receive 75 per cent new common stock, 25 per cent stock in the company formed to take over the Nicetown plant. "Republic Iron and Steel preferred stockholders are to receive dividends in cash to date when the new preferred dividend begins to accrue and 100 per cent in new preferred stock. "Republic Iron and Steel common stockholders are to receive 25 per cent new preferred stock which is to be purchased from them at $95 a share and 70 per cent new common stock. "Inland Company stockholders are to receive 25 per cent in new preferred stock, which is to be purchased from them at $95 per share, and 70 per cent in new common stock. "It is intended to provide $20,000.000 additional cash working capital from the sale of common stock." Negotiations are pending, Mr. Chadbourn says, for the acquisition of other properties, but irrespective of the outcome of these negotiations Midvale, Republic and Inland Companies propose to proceed with these merger plans. The Republic Iron and Steel Company has blast furnaces at Birmingham, Ala., and Youngstown, Ohio; steel works, tube works and sheet and bar mills and a bolt and nut works at Muncie, Ind., a special mill at Davenport, Iowa, and a small plant at Chicago. The company has coal mines in Alabama and Pennsylvania and iron ore deposits in Alabama and "the lake country," including Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. New Revolution in Mexico. San Antonio, Texas.A new revolutionary movement in the state of Chiapas has caused the Mexican government to withdraw Gen. Francisco Serrano, minister of war and navy, from the state of Tabasco, where he has been engaged in putting down a rebel lion under General Greene, according to La Prensa, Spanish language newspaper in San Antonio. Grant Germany. 1922 Moratorium. Paris.—The reparations commission recently fully approved the German reply to its ultimatum and definitely decided to grant Germany a provisional moratorium for the year 1922. The text of the commission's letter to Chancellor Wirth and also its decision were issued a few days ago. The decision was unanimous. Earthquake Shakes Washington City. Spokane.—An earth shock lasting for three minutes, was felt by many persons in Spokane a few days ago. Some reported the shocks were accompanied by heavy rumbling. War Fraud Battle Raging in House. Washington.—The war franks fight raging for days in the Senate, broke with unexpected fury after the rules committee had rescinded its action in giving right of way to a Republican resolution for investigation of the lack of government prosecution of alleged war grafters. Charges by Chairman Campbell "in a word to Democrats," that their attack on Attorney General Danghery was the only way in which they could "serve war crooks" threw the House into disorder. 9-Day Reduction Sale This sale—another Nine Day Wonder—is the occasion of the most advantageous kind of pricing on clothing of highest character.

THE acceptance on behalf of the American people by President Harding of the Lincoln Memorial Pantheon, Tuesday last, was one of those rare occassions in our national life when a singleness of purpose encompasses every American heart. For the one man to whom all classes and conditions of men can look to for inspiration, the one great national figure whose place in history is attested by universal affection, is the great Emancipator, Abraham Lincoln. And so it is not to be marveled that when President Harding arose to speak, that a waving sea of humanity, stretching almost as far as eye could reach stood in patient waiting to catch a word uttered in tribute of him whose life and deeds and character more nearly approaches that of Jesus of Nazareth than any other figure in all history. Abraham Lincoln was truly a great American, a large hearted apostle of humanity, whose love of freedom and justice lifted him to the sublime heights of immortality. His true measure of greatness seem to be more clearly recognized as time goes on, and it is immensely fitting that American gratitude, love and appreciation should manifest itself in the erection of a vast temple of purest white, dedicated to the cause of freedom. Moreover it is peculiarly impressive that people of all races and of all stations in life, the rich and the poor., statesmen and diplomats, veterans of the north and grizzled veterans of the south formed a composite of the great throng that assembled around this memorial on Decoration Day. The spoken words were by President Harding, ex-President Taft and Maj. R. R. Moton, President of Tuskegee Institute spoke on behalf of the American Negro. Words of wisdom fell from the lips of each and carefully carried phrases bearing every mark of sincerity came from the tongue of each. But they possessed no more of sincerity, nor hearty earnestness than the mute tribute of love and praise than welded in the hearts of the thousands, yea millions of Americans who behold in the Lincoln life and Lincoln ideals the greatness of a nation and the happiness of its people if they be unselfishly applied. "In every moment of peril, in every hour of discouragement, whenever the clouds gather, there is the image of Lincoln to rivit our hopes and to renew our faith." Thus sagely spoke President Harding and the alleluias of a grateful American people, reverent in heart and in soul go upward in one acclaim from sea to sea. THE END OF THE TERM. THERE is a supreme hour in life when every fibre of the body and every heart throb responds to the magic touch of noble achievement following a season of keen anticipations. IT IS GRADUATION DAY, the time when one looks back upon the long grind of years, the great climb up the mountain side, the fretful hours of study, of self denial and almost painful application. It is the moment when one feels an imperative call to duty and yet realizes how very poorly equipped he is to meet the responsibilities and high purposes of life. The day of all days in the life of a young man or woman is that time when diploma sermon cuts free the elements of school room bondage and bids them embark upon life's larger stream of usefulness and responsibility. Too often, however, the "end of the term" is interpreted as being the end of struggle, of endeavor, of study and research. For many of our youth feel it incumbent to stop at this point instead of accepting the larger view that the "Commencement Day" exercises are in reality the actual commencement of opportunity and responsibility. The greatest potential power that lies dormant in every human being is endurance, and this must be requisitioned to its fullest possibilities by every student who would make a success of life. Denver on the whole has a most creditable organized school system. Within the next week or two the various high schools will turn out many hopeful bright-minded graduates. THE COLORADO STATESMAN is pleased to know that among them will be many of our group. In the past few years many of our students have seemingly taken a new grip upon themselves and more are finishing from our high schools than formerly. This is as it should be. Negro children in such cities as Denver where the educational opportunities offered are absolutely equal should take advantage of every condition. Here we pay our just proportion of taxes for the upbuilding of our school system and here our children are given an equal chance with every other race. Shame then on the young boy or girl who, ending their high school course in a week or so, will end all efforts toward a higher education. And thrice shame on any parent who will encourage such an attitude in their off-spring. The most valuable contribution to society today is an educated man or woman, lofty minded, of clean morals and with an undaunted purpose to succeed in the race of life. Denver schools have proven excellent training points for many of our youth. Some of the most excellent citizens we have here, some of whom are fathers and mothers and substantial home builders can trace the beginning of their successes back to East Denver High, Manual Training, or some of our other schools. Therefore we feel that much can be gained if our citizens generally will take a larger interest in the approaching graduating exercises. Every encouragement should be given our graduates. Offer to them something more than flowers and mere words of advice. Help them point their lives toward a real career. No doubt many of our churches and women's clubs will hold beautiful social affairs for our group of graduates as in former years. If so, let them feel and breathe the very atmosphere of sincerity surrounding them on every hand. They are to be the men and women of tomorrow and such a tribute to their accomplishments should not be left to proud parents alone. There is not a doctor or lawyer or other professional man or woman but who has faced all that our coming graduates must face in the trials of life that await their school leaving. The exactions of present day scientific and economic conditions are such that every being must be fully fitted for an especial task, and our high schools do not presume to adequately supply all the material needed for so great a purpose. In consequence a long term of years iwll await some in college or seminary and proper ground work must be laid now for the struggle. Life's ambitions are seldom reached in leaps and bounds. There are but few if any short cuts to success. So THE COLORADO STATESMAN joins hands with all good citizens in offering not only words of praise for the journey thus far commendably traversed by our students, but we extend every encouragement for the larger journey that must be theirs if they would fill, as we sincerely hope a worthy sphere in the affairs of the world. "The Morals of the Rising Generation as Loose as Its Galoshes? By MRS. GEORGE MAYNARD MINOR, President General D. A. R. The American home is going into the discard and it requires an act of faith to believe that it will survive the automobile and the movies, the thirst for the pleasure and diversion of the moment. The creation of real American homes is woman's sphere, but it need not be confined to the four walls of the house. It should reach out to better schools, pure movies, cleaner drama, modest dress, better discipline for the child at home and in school. An undisciplined child is good material for future upheavals and revolutions. The American home is going into the discard and it requires an act of faith to believe that it will survive the automobile and the movies, the thirst for the pleasure and diversion of the moment. The creation of real American homes is woman's sphere, but it need not be confined to the four walls of the house. It should reach out to better schools, purez movies, cleaner drama, modest dress, better discipline for the child at home and in school. An undisciplined child is good material for future upheavals and revolutions. It is said that the morals of the rising generation are as loose as its galoshes. But I have faith in the young people of today, faith that they will make good and settle down when the world rocks a little less uneasily in the whirlpools left by the war. The world grows better, not worse, with every succeeding generation. There is too much pessimism. Weak lamentations will not help matters any. Acid criticism only rebounds against itself. Be constructive. "Keep the home fires burning," the family lamp alight. Its quiet radiance is needed in this jazz-weary world. The qualities which have made America what it is were born in the home, and must remain there if democracy is to endure. Thrift, industry, honesty, kindness, truthfulness, courtesy, unselfishness, modesty, purity of heart and thought, a conscience quick to repel wrong and, above all, religious faith—these are the products of a Christian home and these are the foundation stones of the nation. Build them into your home life, lest democracy perish. Throughout all our history, the spoken and written words of our great leaders pay humble and constant tribute to the guiding hand of God; our fundamental state documents recognize His sovereignty. The Declaration of Independence appeals to divine justice as a witness. This great democracy of ours has many enemies assailing it from within and without. A false democracy is seeking to overturn our representative form of government and to replace it with mob rule, or government directly by the populace, instead of by representatives. This is the false democracy of the socialist and communist. It is the more insidious because it masquerades as true democracy. Only a Question of Time Before Congress Wipes Out State Boundaries Congress is breaking down the integrity of the states. If the present course is persisted in it is only a question of time when congress will wipe out state boundaries. The people of the states will be governed by bureaucrats at Washington, and not by state officials elected by the people. These bureaucrats will not be responsible to the people. Today the constitutional provisions and safeguards against a central administration are being honored more in the breach than in the observance. They are treated as if they were "trifles light as air." Overzealous people find it easier to pass one law for all the states through congress than forty-eight laws, one for each state. The desire to legislate at Washington has become a disease. The evil of overregulation by law threatens the safety of our government. The passing of laws has become an American mania. It is one of the most serious menaces to our liberty. The invasion of personal rights today is assuming the form of despotism. It is creating a hostile attitude on the part of the people against the law. I was about to say that we need a new magna charta. But our rights of individual freedom are defined. All we have to do is to protect these rights. Any American Artist Finds Himself Practically Without Patronage By C. R. W. NEVINSON, British Artist. Any citizen of the United States who strives to be an artist in his own land finds himself practically without patronage for the simple reason that Americans in general have no critical faculty whatever. Any Americans who have the idea that I am merely annoyed by a lack of financial success among them are quite wrong; on the contrary, I regard that failure as a splendid compliment. They will say nice words in praise of American artists and they will support the growing chauvinist movement for American art. But they will not buy American pictures; that is the last step that occurs to anybody. In this respect the women are more responsible than their men. The absence of a critical faculty not only impels Americans to trust the auction room, to invest in the gilt-edged dead, to avoid their own native talent; it has the most alarming consequences for the artists themselves. The real artists of New York, by whom I mean the adventurers in art, the creators, have to earn their living as draymen or waiters, achieving their intellectual work when they are dead beat with manual labor. A Nation-Wide Application of the Principle of Juvenile Court Work By JUDGE EDWARD SCHOEN, Newark, N. J. I feel that the problems behind the minor offender who comes to the juvenile court are so far-reaching in importance—that is, the proper reconstructive work that is required to be done to readjust the child, readjust his living conditions, is work of such magnitude—that the federal government, with its vast resources and prestige, would perhaps be the most effective agency or instrumentality with which to do that work. Further, it would probably lead more quickly to a standardization of all the work. I am very much interested and concerned about the standardization of reconstructive work that should be done, and the way in which it should be done, and to get the necessary financial aid to do it, and do it right. Then, again, there would be a nation-wide application of this whole principle of juvenile court work and procedure, which we have not yet got, although the juvenile court is some twenty years old. A great part of our country is without the application of juvenile court principles in its treatment of children. MILLINERY MILLINERY Have your old hat changed to a new one. Mme. M. A.

Dinwe like many other cities, is groaning under the burden of far too many financial drives. One of the baneful legacies of the war 1s the drive habit, calling for large sums of money by various organizi- tions, the most of them worthy and de- ‘serving. We got into the habit dur ‘ing the war to look upon it as a pa- triotie duty to respond with becoming liberality to these “drives” until to- day it seems that good nature and pa- triotism is about to be “driven” into the corner of bankruptcy. ‘There can be no questioning that the public has been many times imposed upon by this system, but it is not always easy to distinguish the good from the bad. ‘The more unfortunate phase of this situation is that practically the same ‘persons or firms are made the victims in each case, They become td be known as “easy prey.” Byery man should have a fixed purpose to lay up a little something against the evil days of want, and while no man could or should live to himself alone, it 1s be- coming time that a halt was called upon this tendency to encourage drives, especially in view of the marked atringency of the times. c.

Wor weeks charges were made tree- ‘ly that the Departinent of Justice was ja haggard tu its attempts te get at the protiteers. The mutter was liken up in congress and direct charges aguinst the deparunent were unde by some Republican representatives, and ot course the Denivcrats baye been wak- ing cupitus out of the controversy. A promise of prosecution und a statement of whit hus been done were mude by the attorney general ina let- ter to the President. ‘The direct word ‘Is that some of “the big ones of eurth” will be under the tire of the courts be fore much time has elapsed. ‘The fate of the vill fur bonus for the former service men Is perhaps in some tensure dependent upon what happens io the profiteers or to the men alleged to be such, If there hud been no profiteering during the war, there probably would have been uo demand for a bonus from veterans of the World war, ‘The uajority in the senate ‘oday is trying to figure out some means of providing what Is equivalent to a cash bonus and doing ‘it in such a way that It will receive ‘the Presidential sunetion, If develop- Huents prove that men i business tite ‘ost wctive In opposition to the bonus profited lurgely ut the expense of the xoverument during the war, it seems likely that opposition to the cash qnty- [ments to the veterans will melt away Hike a show on a southern slope ander a spring sun, No Politics in the Bonus, Of course the fact that some men ‘protiteered during the war, “did” thelr government out of money und en- riched themselves at the expense of the taxpayers does not in itself forny an excuse for the culling upon the tax: payers to pay more mouey, but it sup- plies the buman reason for the de mund of the ex-service men that Wey get a bonus, and it also supplies a rea- son why the men usking for the bonus get considerable sympathy from the people tor their dennind. Members of the lower house who voted in favor of the bonus have told your correspondent that they do not believe that a vote for or ugainst the bonus will have any political effect ‘one way or the other. These members suid they thought men who voted against the measure will get as much voting benefit at the polls from thelr action as would come to men. who yoted for the measure. One of these representatives has told me that he was moved to vote for the bonus by the comparatively re- cent action of certain great business organizations of the country which came out in bitter opposition to the payment of anything to the former service men. ‘his man sald that a study ef the personnel of the business organiza: tions showed him that a large number of the memberships are held by men who reaped financial harvests from the war, although he would not sity whether or not he thought all these men actually were intentional profi teers, ‘The representative added that opposition to the payment of compara: tively small sums of money to the men who served did not come with good grace from men who did not serve and who made large sums of money as a result of their business activities during the war. Many Charges by Both Parties. The proliteering charges have been provocative of all kinds of charges against individuals and corporations {1 private life und against officials of gov. ernment, Democrats and some Repub: leans with them have charged that the present administration has endeavored through its Department of Justice t cover up some of thc profiteering Many Republicans have declared, ot the contrary, that the Department o: Justice has been at work unearthing the facts in the various cases, aud that when they are disclosed to the public view it will be found that offictals of the previous administration winked at profiteering operations. ‘That there was profiteering durins the war is known to every American. Men who made fortunes out of the government sutracts spent thelr ac quired riches in glaring living in New York city, and, in winter, at Florida resorts and elsewhere. They flaunted their wealth. It is said that many of them since have gone broke, not being able to stand the prosperity which suddenly came to them, Bureau Transfer Controversy. It is intended to transfer some certain bureaus of government from departments In which they have oper ‘ated for years to other departments So fur as the formulation of the re- [port is concerned be has been the Whole comission, | There huye been efforts, more or {less upparent, to make it appear that | no bitterness bax been shown by any of the officals whose departments or | bureaus probably are to be affected. | There has been bitterness und there is j bitterness today. What President Hur | ding, and everybody else wants of course, is the good of the service, ‘he | ditticulty has been to decide what Is | good for the service. | Wallace's Department Hit, ‘The proposal to transfer the forest- ry bureau from the Departinent of Agriculture to the Departinent of the Interior has revived the controversies of the past. One can hear almost any- | thing with one ear that he ts willing |to hear in fuvor of the transfer, and then with the other he ean hear almost anything that he is willlng to hear |uzainst the transfer, A Solomon is needed to decide as between Secretary | Wallace und Secretaries Fall and | Hoover. | ‘The Department of Agriculture will |e harder hit than any of the other | departuients if the proposed changes [in jurisdiction over certain bureaus of | goverument shall be made. Secretary | Hoover's outtit believes that It better leun care for the bureau of public roads and the bureau of markets than it is possible for Secretary Wallace's outtit to care for them, ‘The proposal, It is understood, is to transfer these | two bureaus to the eare of Mr, Hoover. | President Harding's letter to con- | eres has shown what the budget sys- |tem und the operations of General | Dawes have done for economy and | elliciency. It is held by persons. here that second only in saving grace to the operations of the budget will be that which will come to the govern- Jment if the bureau transfers should be effected, ‘Time alone will tell. The opponents of some of the trins- fers say that extravagance rather than | economy will result from the adoption }of the report of Chairman Brown. | There seemingly Is point to the Jargument of the Department of Com- | merce that it should baye control of |of the bureau of public roads, because | rouds are the instrument of commerce, |The same argument might hold ue |so far ns the bureau of markets is jconcerned, but agriculture says that markets represent the products ot | the soil, and that the producers want | the farming department of government |to continue its control. | Memorial Day Plans. | Prepurutious are being made to | Washington for the annual Me |morial day exercises, In Arling: {ton ucross the Potomac from Wash- Jington sleep thousands upon thou: |sands of the country’s dead, Bed- jeral officers and soldiers and Confed- [erate officers and soldiers, side by side and with them the dead of all the wars, including the World's war, in which American men have gone forth |ro the fighting. Arlington is the camping ground of an army that never again will bear arms. Since the last Memorial day the unknown soldier whose body was brought from France has found a resting place In front of the great am- |phitheater. The people, of course, will lremembpr the ceremonies attending the Interment on Arinistice day of the body of this soldier who in a high | sense represented ull of his fallen com: jrades. | On Memorial day the soldiers of the regular army and the yolunteer yet- Jerans of all the wars will assemble jand mareh to do honor to the dead. | Northern veterans of the Civil war will jremember alike the graves of Union jand Confederate soldiers, A little |later, however, there will be another jobservance at Arlington when the Confeder:te veterans and Daughters jor the Confederacy will hold a special |memorial service of their own, in honor of the southern dead. Sometime it may be that the Fed- eral and Confederate memorial cere- monies will be held on the same day. Grant and Sherman Not There.

At a certain town in Belgtum a strange bonfire used to be lighted every night, During the day from 120 to 200 tons of ammunition left oyer from the war—some 80,000 projectiles of every description, that ‘ is—were stripped of thelr fuses, ‘Then they were laid with open mouths alongside shullow trenches that had been filled with brushwood and sprinkled with ‘plerate and cordite taken from the ‘shells and cartridges. At 5:30 in the afternoon the great ‘fire was ready to be lighted, and M. ¥, A. Talbot, an English writer, gives the following thrilling description of the way in which it was done: “Sharp to the minute shrieks a whistle, and there is a wild stampede of workers from the clearing. A. motorcar has driven up unobserved, bearing the safety inspector and his assistants, “He makes a hurried examination of the now silent and tenantless clear- ing, re-arranging the shells here, and trimming the trails somewhere else. Meanwhile an assistant has emerged from his shack with four long steel rods, an armful of rags, and a bucket of paraffin. “The rags are wrapped round the ends of the rods and saturated with the inflammable liquid, and sharp at 5:40 a mateh is struck and four blaz- ing torches distributed among the sufety officials. | “The motorcar commences to purr ‘as the firebugs bend to their task. ‘Each man {s responsible for the fir- ‘ing of so many trenches. Tt 1s an inspiring race. ‘The men flit from trench to trench In succession, dipping their brands into the attractive trail in passing. “The cordite and picrate catch fire instantly to run along the ditch with the speed of the prairie fire. . . . By the time the last trench has been fired the ground is completely envel- oped in smoke and the men appear as phantoms. “The brands are hurriedly diseard- ed, and there is a spirited sprint across the reniaining few yards to the road to eatch the car, which is already on the move. Tumbling into the vehicle pell-mell, the throttle is opened and the top speed slipped in, there being no easing up until at least a mile has been put between the es- caping firebugs and the burning ground, “As the evening advances the fire grows fiercer, throwing off dense clouds of varicolored smoke, _ lit with lurid tongues of flame. For miles around the fire 1s a spectacle, and it occurs so punctually every aft- ernoon throughout the week that the rural population accepts it as a time- piece.” By next morning the shells have burned themselves out and are sufli- clently cooled to be handled. ‘They are then sent away to have the driv- ing band removed, and the ground Is prepared afresh for the next bon- ‘are: i ae | The Mouth-Piece § | of the People of; | Colorado and the) | Entire West | | A RELIABLE chronicle | of their doings and § | progress; a faithful mirror | of their wants, their hopes, | their best aspiration. - 7 THE : COLORADO | | STATESMAN | | Unequaled as an advertising : medium for the business of professional men and | women.

His pal, Brown, looked at the mon- grel with an air reminiscent of a vet. “I can't say I like him,” said Brown, “He reminds me of a dog I once had— but a better one than this. Why, I used to wrap that dog up in flannel and put him to bed, and if ever I heard a suspicious noise during the night and came down to wake him up, he'd bark like the very deuce!” Pleasure With Pain.

(Prepared by the United States Department if they are left out of the diet for of Agriculture. The consumer, rather than the producer, the distributor of milk, or the manufacturer of dairy products is the person for whose use a new Farmers' Bulletin, No. 1207, Milk and Its Uses in the Home, has recently been issued by the United States Department of Agriculture. Milk is indispensable in the diet of children, because its solids are in such form that they can be easily utilized by the body, and because it is one of the best sources of the lime needed to build bone and teeth, and of vitamine A, a substance essential to health and normal growth. For adults also milk is an important supplementary food. It should be given scrupulous care in the home. Milk and Its Uses. Milk is an important food, because it contains proteins for tissue forming, fat and sugar for body fuel, and minerals, particularly phosphorus and lime, for building and repairing bones and other tissues. Milk is much richer in lime than most other common foods. A cupful of milk, says the bulletin, contains at least seven times as much lime as two medium sized potatoes, and nearly twenty times as much lime as two slices of white bread or four ounces of average beef. This is one of the reasons why it is such an excellent food for children for bone and tooth building. Vitamines are recently discovered constituents of food. Relatively little is known about the nature of vitamins save that they are indispensable for normal health and growth, and that PARKER HOUSE ROLLS Sift and mix well one and one-fourth cupfuls of white flour, four level teaspoonfuls of baking powder, three-fourths cupful of corn meal, two tablespoonfuls of sugar and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Into this chop with a knife two tablespoonfuls of butter. After the butter has been thoroughly mixed in add one beaten egg and enough milk to make a soft dough that can be easily handled. Toss the mass lightly on a floured board and roll out one-half inch thick. Cut with a large, round biscuit cutter, place a small piece of butter in the center of each round and force over until the edges meet. Brush the top of the rolls with milk, place in a buttered baking pan and bake in a quick oven for fifteen minutes. Serve hot. WAY TO WASH HANDKERCHIEF To Prevent Silk From Turning Yellow No Boiling Should Be Done —Dry in the Sun. To prevent silk handkerchiefs from turning yellow when washed, no soap should be rubbed on the silk, no soda should be mixed with the water, and the handkerchiefs should on no account be boiled. A hot, thick soapy lather made with finely shredded soap should be used for cleaning the handkerchiefs, which should be thoroughly freed from all soap by rinsing in plenty of cold water and when most of the water has been pressed out they should be dried, if possible, in the sun. PREVENT CHICKS PILING UP One of Greatest Single Causes of Loss Among Youngsters—Sweating Is Injurious. The greatest single source of loss among baby chicks after they have safely passed the critical first two or three weeks and are well on the road to proper development, lies in the chance of their piling up some night, smothering to death or sweating. Sweating causes them to lose their feathers and the strain involved in growing a new coat is almost certain to result in a stunted and worthless chick. Soak salt fish in milk to freshen tt for immediate use. if they are left out of the diet for a long period so called "deficiency diseases" may develop. Absence of vitamine A is believed to induce rickets. Vitamine B is thought to prevent polyneuritis and beri-beri. Milk is exceptionally valuable for providing vitamine A, and supplies vitamine B in abundance. Perfectly fresh, raw milk often supplies vitamine C, but its scurvy-preventing power may be lost when it is heated or aged. Each child should have a full quart of milk a day, if possible. Reasons for Pasteurization. While certified raw milk is usually the cleanest milk obtainable, it usually costs a little more than ordinary milk. Good pasteurized milk is satisfactory for children, if the juice of oranges, canned or raw tomatoes, or certain other vegetables and fruits is given to provide vitamine C. Directions for home pasteurization are given in the bulletin, together with an explanation of how bacteria get into milk, the harm they cause, and the effect of careless handling upon them. A great many kinds of bacteria have been found in milk. Some of them cause the formation of lactic acid, which gives sour milk its characteristic flavor, while others cause milk to putrefy if allowed to stand long enough. The bacteria that causes serious diseases may also get into milk, and are sometimes spread in this way, resulting in epidemics. Especial precautions as to cleanliness on the part of those who produce and handle milk are strongly urged. OLD BROOM IS MADE USEFUL When Straws Are Cut as Shown in Illustration It Will Clean Mud Off Soles of Shoes. There's a lot of dirt that need never be swept out of the house if provision is made for leaving it outside in the first place. For this purpose an old broom may be used; and thus it will continue its work of keeping the house Handy Shoe Cleaner. clean long after its straws have been worn down too short for sweeping. Just take an old broom and cut the straws off as shown in the sketch shorten and sharpen the handle and drive it into the ground beside the walk just outside the house. It will clean not only the soles of the shoes but the sides as well, thereby making a certain amount of sweeping unnecessary.

Yes, so long As there is wrong to right— So long as faith with freedom reigns And loyal hope survives, And gracious charity remains To leave lowly lives; And men are free to think and act, Yes—life is worth living still." EVERYDAY GOOD THINGS The keynote to success in cookery is accurate measurement and accurate utensils. A measuring cup may look all right, but may vary from one to three tablespoonfuls.

This is often true of the glass ones as a heavy bottom deceives the eye. There is no such thing as luck in cookery. Accurate measuring and careful following of a recipe will bring good results. All measurement in most cook books today are level and uniform. Heaping and rounding measures are rarely uniform even with the same individual.

Cream the shortening, add the sugar and then the eggs well beaten. Beat thoroughly. Add the prunes finely chopped, the soda dissolved in the fruit juice and the remainder of the ingredients. Bake in two layers and use a mocha filling; or one of lemon is very good. Lemon Cake Pudding.—Sift five tablespoonfuls of flour, two cupfuls of sugar, and one-fourth of a terpounful of salt, add two cupfuls of milk, the beaten yolks of four eggs, one tablespoonful of butter and the juice of three lemons; mix and fold in the whites of the eggs beaten stiff.

It may be proved with much certainty that God intends no man to live in this world without working; but it seems to me no less evident that He intends every man to be happy in his work.

HELPFUL SUGGESTIONS To the small town or country house wife who has not easy access to a market there is a great satisfaction in the knowledge that no matter who comes she is prepared for an emergency. This first aid in an emergency is a market there is a great satisfaction in the knowledge that no matter who comes she is prepared for an emergency. This first aid in an emergency is a well-stocked shelf kept filled with foods which may be used in a hurry call when husband brings home unexpected company. With canned soups or home canned soups or broths one may make a good dish for the beginning of a meal, then with a jar of salad dressing some sort of a salad is usually easy to prepare. If one has time a berry pie makes a fine dessert; or a shortcake, using canned fruit, is always a favorite. The foods used will depend, of course, upon the taste of the family, and if one is to be prepared the canned food, whatever it is, should be replaced at the first opportunity. A few cans of fish, such as salmon and tuna, sardines and clams, if liked, some jars of sliced dried beef, and bacon, peanut butter, cans of corn and tomatoes, with a bottle of good salad dressing, which may be stretched by the addition of cream, a box or jar of cheese, are a few of the foods which will be most commonly used, not forgetting several cans of good soup. A most delicious tomato sauce may be made in a hurry from a can of tomato soup, using it with cold meat or hamburger steak, if at hand. When taking dishes to a church supper or hall, mark them with small bits of adhesive tape with the name written in ink. This will not wash off at all easily, and one may identify one's property with little difficulty. When baking a crust for a filled pie, bake it on the bottom of the pan, pricking it lightly with a fork; this keeps the crust from blistering.

KNICKER SUITS FLOURISH; SILK KNITTED SCARFS IT HAS come to the place where sports clothes are broadly divided into two classes—those worn by sportswomen for actual wear in sports, and those worn by "onlookers"—or merely to create an atmosphere or to fit in with environment. And now we are hearing of "spectator" hats and "onlooker" sweaters. These have the casual character of sports clothes, but need not be so sturdy and they may therefore indulge in unusual decorations and press into their service silken fabrics. But for real sports wear there are regulation types and among C THE FASHION WEEK GOLF KNICKERS FOR SPORT WEAR knickerbockers, in place of skirts, have made such progress that their name has been abbreviated to "knickers." Life is too short to say "knickerbocker" as often as one needs to among women given to outdooring, so we have knicker suits, like that one illustrated, made of tweed and other dependable fabrics. It is above criticism for golfing, hiking and pastimes where skirts are inconvenient. As pictured, it is a boyish affair with belted coat and well-fitted knickers, and it calls for blouse, footwear and headwear of like character. Ribbed hose, broad toe, low heel, sport shoes, plain blouse, scarf tie, and sailor hat (fastened on with a chin strap), proclaim the discriminating taste of the sportswoman. Altogether it has a style and flavor all its own—as smart and charming as a riding habit. For mid- UNION WOOD & UNION WOOD LONDON WOODS & JUNE WOODS UNION WOOD EVERYBODY'S WEARING THEM summer some of the knicker suits are made with sleeveless coats and worn with mildy blouses. For wear on the links and other sports wear, there are attractive new suits with figured skirts and solid color jackets. French manufacturers have contributed bright-hued jackets of brushed wool, knitted with a wide rib, for wear with sports skirts. The majority of them have flaring sleeves and shawl collars, but there are some of the smart stand-up collars. The most interesting developments in the realm of sports clothes, come from the knitting mills. Worsted yarns and fiber silk, when knitted, give a flavor of sportwear to any garment, and this season presents them in dresses, coat hats and scarf sets having the --- --- appeal of novelty as well as beauty. What a boon to fashion-kind are the gay knitted scarfts! Everybody's wearing them! That is, speaking of those who give timely thought to the art of good dressing. When any article of apparel is as universally popular as is the knitted scarf "there's a reason." In the first place, knitted togs of every description are fashion's hobby this season. Next the mannish tailored suits, polo conts and the like, which are prevailing vogue, seem to call for "just a touch of color." The T knitted silk scarf supplies this need in its fascinating Roman stripes, gay plaids or checks. It may be said, in passing, that in addition to the colorful scarfs, many handsome matched suit colorings have also been brought out for those who prefer monotone effect in costuming. These are particularly attractive in heather mixtures. With all due appreciation of the ornamental value of the knitted silk scarf, its greatest asset is its genuine usefulness for the summer time. Those who have the knack, add further glory to these scarfs by artfully throwing them about the throat with studied grace. Young girls are taking particular delight in thrusting the two fringed ends under the belt of their suits, sort of tuxedo collar fashion. The latest is for brilliant silk knit I scarfs with solid colored sweaters, either the tuxedo coats or the V neck slip-on. Perhaps the zenith of beauty is attained in the sheer seabreeze scarfs for summer, which are thin, almost to transparency, and stretch over the shoulders like a silken cobweb. In conclusion, if you would be up-to-date, become the happy possessor of a silk knitted scarf, for knitted outer wear is the keynote of present moment fashion.
