THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY DU BOIS IS PRAISER OF SEGREGATION VOL. XXIX. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., July 6.—In this city, early scene of his labors, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, well-known author, is a fallen idol. Before a large, cultured and determined audience of progressive race men and women assembled in Wesley Church, Dr. DuBois came out flatfooted for segregation and rule of Jim Crow. "We have segregated hospitals, separate churches, race lodges, insurance companies advertising racial identity, our own undertakers, and finally graveyards where only our blood is buried," declared the critic of Booker T. Washington, "and I, therefore, glory in separate schools." The audience acted as if the fire department had turned the ice water hose upon it. Dr. DuBois had been advertised to speak against segregation, and particularly against the effort to make the Cheyney school a Jim Crow retreat. The speaker took the other route. One of his utterances that cold-watered his listeners was this: Stop fighting Cheyney and Hill; let them alone. We must hang to segregation to save our race." Hill is principal of Cheyney, which citizens of the state claim is a Jim Crow school, and which they are opposing. For an utterance less unpatriotic than that Booker T. Washington was read out of the society of respectable men by Dr. DuBois. As the author went along his audience could see that his opposition to Booker T. Washington in the life time of the great leader was built on jealousy. Dr. DuBois, who boasts of his Harvard degree, is really a product of Fisk University, class of '88. "I am proud of Jim Crow schools," declared the "champion," "because my daughter is a product of one." Likewise Dr. DuBois, although he never owned it until recently. The speaker was handled without gloves and with large hands by J. Francis Lee, Rev. Wm. Lloyd Imes, Attorney G. Edward Dickerson, Dr. J. Wesley Bailey and Rhoda Tilton. Each speaker expressed surprise that Dr. DuBois, supposed champion of equal rights and identical opportunities for our children, could fall from grace with so much ease and self-satisfaction. The audience refused to respond to the invitation to join the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the collection plate looked like a pauper's oath when the offering was called for. offering was taken His magazine, Editor DuBois said, is a segregated proposition, and will continue to be so. continue to teach Philadelphians might call in other noted leaders to sound the toosin when big ideas are to be pressed, but it will be a long time before this city pins its faith again to DuBois. To the statement of the speaker that his views were inherited from his grandfather one of the speakers said he would like to meet the grandfather of a man who had so many views on one matter. 50,000 NEGROES HAVE LEFT SOUTH CAROLINA SINCE NOVEMBER Clemson, College, S. C., June 25. Fifty thousand Negroes have left forty-one counties in South Carolina since November 1, with a consequent abandonment of thousand of farms and crops, according to a survey conducted by the extension service of Clemson College. State Hist & Nut Hist Society State House R THE ONLY RELIAB COLOR PRAISER GREGATION Negro Supervisor For Balti. Schools Baltimore, Md., June 28.—A movement is on foot to have a colored supervisor appointed with jurisdiction over all colored schools. Mayor Jackson called attention this week to a letter from Carl Murphy, editor of the "Afro-American," presenting the opinion of the colored people in the matter. A white supervisor now has charge. Mr. Murphy told the mayor, "Colored people are in the dark as to what the school board is doing and are never called into consultation." Mr. Murphy also asked that the city make provision for a trade school to provide, he said, "for the hundreds of colored boys and girls who drop out of school each year because they do not want an academic high school training." He asked further for the extension of the elementary school system "to provide for some 1,800 colored school children who are in forty halftime classes at present." Topeka, Kan., White Newspaper Endorses N.A.A.C.P. Protest An editorial published in the Topeka Daily Capital of June 19, 1923, endorses a protest by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against the showing in Kansas of "The Birth of a Nation" film. Commenting upon the Association's telegram to Governor Davis of Kansas, urging him to prevent the film being shown, the Topeka Daily Capital said: "An Encourager of Race Hatred" Not only state and local, but national action has been taken by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against the new attempt to show a vicious Southern race film, 'The Birth of a Nation,' in Kansas. In Governor Capper's and Governor Allen's terms permission to show this picture in the state was refused. When the Association heard of the appeal for an exhibition of the film to Governor Davis it telegraphed the governor urging that 'you continue the splendid example of former governors of Kansas in forbidding exhibition of this film, capitalizing and spreading as it does vicious racial prejudices which should have no part in American life.' "It is difficult to see any purpose to be served by the revived attempt to show this picture. There are no conditions in Kansas warranting it. The picture is biased as history and sectional in its appeal. It can not claim art as its motive, for propaganda sticks out all over it. Evil can easily come of it in its power of stimulating passion, and this is a sufficient objection against any picture to which it applies. 'The Birth of a Nation' has been kept out of Kansas for reasons as strong today as any time in the last five years." The Topeka Daily Capital is published of Senator Arthur Capper, who is a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colorado People. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1923 J. Finley Wilson Endorsed for Re-election Saulsbury, Md., June 22, 1923 To the Members of the Tri-State Association, Delaware, Maryland and Virginia: Whereas, the Grand Exalted J. Finley Wilson has given to Elkdom its greatest administration in its history, having organized over sixty new lodges and twenty-five thousand new members, among which are the members of the famous Ninth U. S. Cavalry, the greatest soldiers the world has ever produced, thereby enlisting their bravery and manhood for the good of the great order as well as for the race; And, Whereas, he has invaded territory hitherto known as no man's land, including Georgia, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas, Alabama and Louisiana, the very home of the Ku Klux Klan; And Whereas, he has caused a great revival of enthusiasm throughout the entire realms of colored Elkdom, having even gone from the confines of this country and set the banner of the order to wave over the islands of the seas and upon the Dominion of Canada: And. Whereas, he has labored most faithfully for the good of the order in general, never tiring day or night, even to the extent of carrying on after becoming painfully and dangerously hurt while upon a mission for the order, ignoring his own welfare, thereby risking his life, after having been warned by his physicians that he should immediately confine himself to his bed for an indefinite period of time, proving thereby that he loved the grand old order even better than his own life; And. Whereas, it is the purpose of this convention to promote the good of Elkdom; Be it Resolved, that this Tri-State Association and Convention I. B. P. O. E. W. go on record as unanimously endorsing the administration of the present Grand Exalted Ruler and hereby further instruct the delegates attending the next session of the Grand Lodge of I. B. P. O. E. W. at Chicago in August, 1923, to vote first, last and always for the re-election of the greatest Grand Exalted Ruler Elkdom has ever known, in the person of J. Finley Wilson. And be it further Resolved, that a copy of these memorials be sent to the general press and to be duly entered upon the records of the proceedings of this meeting. Galveston Citizens Protest Jim Crow Galveston, Texas, June 25.—On last week a committee of representative colored men called on the city commissioners of the city of Galveston, and protested against discriminating signs that had been placed on the benches facing the Gulf of Mexico. The committee was led on by Dr. R. H. Stanton, popular dentist of the city, and other members of the committee were: Dr. J. R. M. Lee, Mr. Alexander Green, Dr. R. T. Stanton, Prof. H. T. Davis, and Dr. Russell Conwell Barbour, pastor of one of the local Baptist churches here. After a vigorous protest the commissioners voted unanimously to order the county commissioners to remove the signs. DYER ON WET TOUR Washington, June 28.—Congressman L. C. Dyer, after winding up his tour of the West in behalf of the antlynching bill, will soon begin a tour of the East for dry law modifications. Negroes Leave Harding Meeting Would Not Be Segregated St. Louis, June 25.—Such terms as "outrageous," "shameful," "dirty" were used by the Negroes of St. Louis the other night as they were voluntarily leaving the Coliseum before the Harding meeting, which they had gone to attend, had commenced. The Negroes left rather than to be forced to sit in the "buzzard roost." "Negroes to Third Floor!" Large numbers of colored people had arrived early, anxious to hear what the President had to say on his 15,000-mile trip. As they arrived, they were greeted with "On to the third floor!" by the ushers. Whenever a Negro stopped to ask the reason for the segregation, he was told by police that unless he went to the peanut gallery, he would be put out. Neither police nor the ushers would vouchsafe to say from whom they had received their instructions. Negroes Leave Immediately As the colored people arrived and were informed where they were to sit, they left. According to reliable information from a few persons who stayed only twenty-three Negroes remained, these, it is thought, being newcomers from the South who have not yet caught the spirit of the colored St. Louisan. There is a general opinion among the colored people that, although it is difficult to lay hands on any one person as the guilty party, the mayor's committee is responsible. Mitchell Resigns As Pythian Head Banker Under Sentence Says "He's Coming Back Though" Petersburg, Va., June 28.—John Mitchell, Jr., grand chancellor of the Pythians of Virginia, resigned his office at the state meeting last week. Mr. Mitchell is under a sentence for three years, pending an appeal on charges growing out of the receivership of the Mechanics Bank. Attorney William Reed of Portsmouth, was elected to fill his place under orders of the State Insurance Department into whose hands the affairs of the Pythians have been placed since the loss of its funds in the bank failure. Mr. Mitchell, resigning, issued the following statement: "No sooner than the receivership of the Grand Lodge of Virginia is ended, I will be the Grand Chancellor again, and furthermore the Grand Lodge of Virginia will NOT ACCEPT the proposition of the Supreme Lodge offered by Supreme Chancellor Green." AMERICAN NEGRO JOCKEY RIDES BANADUR TO VICTORY Paris, July 1.—Bahadur, a French bred horse, owned by Leon Mantacheff, a Russian, and ridden by the veteran colored American jockey, Winkfield of Kentucky, today won the President of the French Republic stakes of 200,000 francs at the closing of the metropolitan racing season at St. Cloud. Bahadur paid his backers 14 to 1. Arkansas Supreme Court Frees Negro Peons THE six Negro peons who have been awaiting retrial, for more been awaiting retrial for more than two years, accused of participation in the ract rlotting in Elaine county, Arkansas, in October, 1919, were freed today by the Arkansas State Supreme Court, the news being sent by telegraph to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, which organization has led in the fight to save the lives of these men. The rioting arose over the organization by colored share-croppers of a legal aid society through which they planned to take action through the courts to end vicious economic exploitation. In order to prevent such court action the rumor was spread that these Negroes had organized to massacre white people and seize their land. Mobs poured into Arkansas and killed in three days more than 250 Negroes Seventy-nine others were arrested tried and twelve of them sentenced to death, while sixty-seven others were sentenced to long prison terms, all the convictions occurring within three days while the court room was thronged with a mob that threatened death to any juror who voted for an acquittal. The Advancement Association employed lawyers, appealed for funds and has fought the cases for nearly four years at a cost of more than $14,000. In February the United States Supreme Court reversed the Arkansas Federal Court in six of these cases, and the decision of today frees the other six men. The cases in the Federal Supreme Court were argued by Moorfield Storey of Boston, former president of the American Bar Association, and now President of the N. A. A. C. P. James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the Advancement Association, in commenting on the decision today, said: "The decision freeing these men marks the beginning of the end of the greatest case of its kind in the history of America. Back of lynching and all the more obvious forms of race prejudice lies the fundamental cause of much of race antagonism in this country and that is the desire to exploit Negroes in the South. One of the primary causes of the monumental migration going on today from the Southern States is the ardent wish of Negroes to escape such exploitation under the share-cropping and peonage systems of the South from which white and colored farmers alike suffer. The successful conclusion of the Arkansas cases is a powerful blow at these iniquitous systems and marks a milestone in the fight for justice in America without regard to color or race. "Great credit belongs to Mr. Storey and to Mr. Scipio A. Jones, a colored attorney of Little Rock, who has conducted the defense of these men from the inception of these cases." Wreath Laid on Dunbar's Grave "Let me settle when my shouldahs draps dey load Nigh enough to hyear de noises in de read When I's layin' 'mong de tings I allus knowed." Dayton, Ohio, June 27.—Many persons visited beautiful Woodlawn cemetery here today to lay a flower upon NO.38 the grave of Paul Lawrence Dunbar, the black poet. They climbed the summit of the little hill to pause by the rough granite rock with its bronze tablet which marks the last resting place of one of America's sweetest singers. Today was celebrated the fifty-first anniversary of the poet's birth. As he requested, the grave with its wreaths and flowers is near to "de noises in de road" because it is in full view of one of the cemetary entrances. Mrs. Matilda Dunbar, the poet's mother, announced today that she had joined with the city in inviting the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity to make a pilgrimage to the poet's old homestead here at Christmas during its sessions in Columbus. Ordained Catholic Priest Father Joseph John to Celebrate First Solemn Mass Next Sunday New York, June 21.—With Bishop John J. Collins, S. J., formerly Bishop of Jamaica, West Indies, and now stationed at Fordham University, officiating, the Rev. Joseph John, Negro, was ordained a priest of the Catholic Church yesterday morning in the Church of St. Benedict the Moor, Fifty-third street near Ninth avenue. Father John is the sixth priest of his race to be ordained in this country. On the altar with Bishop Collins, during the ordination ceremony, were Manager John J. Chadwick, pastor of St. Agnes' Church, this city; the Very Rev. Ignatius Lissner, superior of the Lyons, France, African Missionary Fathers, to which congregation the new priest will be attached, and the Revs. James O'Mahoney, Bernard J. Quinn, Thomas O'Keefe, Timothy J. Shamley and John F. Curran. Father John, who is a native of Grenada, B. W. L., was educated at St. Joseph's College, Baltimore; Laval University, Quebec, and with the African Missionary Fathers in Holland, and Carthage, Africa. Poor health forced him to give up his studies in Carthage and seek a more favorable climate. Hence it was that he came to North America to complete his studies. The new priest has a brother, a Dominican friar, in France, and a sister, a nun in Trinidad. He will celebrate his first solemn mass next Sunday morning in the Church of St. Benedict the Moor. The sermon on that occasion will be preached by Mgr. John E. Burke, national head of Negro Catholic Missions. He will remain in this city a short time and then proceed to the South to do missionary work among the Negroes. Man 104, Born Slave to Be Seen in the Movies Los Angeles, Calif., June 28.—Things are beginning to break pretty soft for John Currie, who says he was born a slave in Atlanta, Ga., in 1819, and is therefore 104 years old, when he received and accepted an opportunity to embark upon a career as a motion picture actor. His part, however, is to be that of a slave and it is thought that he will possibly better portray that part than any person available. FOREIGN July 4 was proclaimed a full national holiday as a tribute to American independence in an executive decree published at Lima, Peru. An elaborate celebration was held. Manila, gripped by a typhoon, was flooded. Many streets were under water. All loading and unloading of ships in the harbor was suspended. The typhoon was strongest over the central portion of the island of Luzon. Three military barracks in Berlin have been converted into dormitories for needy Russian students. The German Red Cross, the Russian section of the League of Nations, the Young Men's Christian Association, and the European Students' Relief each contributed to the undertaking. Foreign Secretary Curzon's flat rejection in London of the twelve-mile limit proposal apparently has countered effectually the effort of the State Department of the United States to clear away at one stroke the ship liquor controversy and the rum-smuggling problem along the Atlantic coast. Newspapers of Mexico City recently carried a statement that the international recognition commission has reached an agreement. El Mundo, a government organ, claims to have inside information that an agreement was reached over a week ago and the work of the commission likely will end in a few days. Premier Baldwin announced in the House of Commons that England is not prepared to co-operate with the United States in calling an aerial disarmament conference. Such a move at the present time would be premature, Baldwin sald, and unlikely to succeed until the outstanding European problems of the moment are satisfactory settled. Count de Saint Aulaire, French ambassador in London, has received complete instructions from the French foreign office to enable him to reply to the British government's recent questionnaire on the Ruhr situation and "any other questions on the Ruhr situation and France's policy on reparations which the British government may see fit to ask." A German "terrorists" organization in the Ruhr is responsible for the series of outrages which culminated in the explosion of a high power dynamite bomb upon a train bearing several hundred Belgian soldiers, according to information received from Aix-la-Chapelle received in Brussels. It is believed that the death list from the explosion will reach twelve, as some of the soldiers wounded were dying in hospitals at Duisburg and Crefeld. GENERAL Handicapped by the hordes of immigrants aboard the eleven ocean liners which reached quarantine, officials of the Treasury Department worked overtime checking up the liquor supplies aboard the ships. Adjt. Gen. Carlos E. Black of the Illinois National Guard is declared "derelict in duty and primarily to blame" for not sending troops to Williamson county at the time of the Herrin riots, in the report of the legislative investigating committee which made its report to the Legislature at Springfield. Approximately 2,500 unlawful floggings have taken place in Oklahoma in the last year, according to reports reaching Governor J. C. Walton, it was announced at Oklahoma City by Aldrich Blake, secretary to the executive, Blake's statement climaxed the first week of a campaign launched by Governor Walton to rid Oklahoma of mob violence. Eighteen federal prohibition enforcement agents, most of them stationed in Manhattan and Brooklyn, were dropped from the staff of R. Q. Merrick, divisional chief for New York and northern New Jersey. The dismissals were said to have been made necessary by the lopping of $500,000 from the government's appropriation for enforcement in the fiscal year. Lives of passengers on the Southern Pacific's Sunset Limited were imperiled recently when the train smashed into an automobile containing a large quantity of dynamite near Glendale, Calif., killing the car's driver and seriously injuring another occupant. Though hurted in all directions, the dynamite failed to explode. One infant is dead and another is in a serious condition in a Schenectady, N. Y., hospital, in consequence, charity officials say, of an all-night ride of 165 miles with seventeen other children in a hired automobile from Brooklyn. The children, seven of them five months old or under, were brought to Schenectady by Mrs. Anna Slewers, the party arriving after a trip of twelve hours. Creation by Edward Bok of Philadelphia, of an award of $100,000 to be called the American peace award and to be given to the American individual or organization presenting the best practical plan by which the United States may co-operate with other nations for the achievement and preservation of world peace, was announced in New York City by the policy committee, organized to administer the award. The St. Louis unit of Piggly Wiggly Stores, Inc., including forty-nine grocery stores and a bakery, has been purchased by a syndicate of St. Louis financiers, headed by Mark C. Steinberg & Co. The announcement stated that the price was "more than $600,000." Further military steps in Gov. J. C Walton's drive to rid Oklahoma of "lawless mobs" will depend upon whether whippings, assaults and other forms of violence cease, it was said at the executive offices in Oklahoma. City.

The Santa Fe Railway Company's store of lumber at San Bernardino, valued at $1,000,000 was destroyed by fire believed to have been started by an incendiary. Fire departments from six adjacent cities were called on to fight the enormous blaze. The closing of the Merchants and Farmers State Bank at Chino, Calif., by the state superintendent of banks, after an investigation by Edward F. Dishman of the State Corporation Department, has resulted in a nation-wide search for six stock brokers who are under indictment in connection with the bank's failure, Dishman announced in San Francisco. A contract between a citizen and an alien ineligible to citizenship whereby the latter is to settle upon agricultural land for the purpose of preparing it for planting, receiving wages for his work and sharing in future profits on an equal basis, is not a violation of the alien land law passed by the California Legislature Nov. 2, 1920, the Supreme Court decided at San Francisco. President Harding's power of speech failed him a few days ago for the first time since he left Washington. Standing at Artists' Point, overlooking the Grand Canon of Yellowstone National Park, the chief executive was asked what he thought of the scene before him. He admitted his inability to reply, saying that the grandeur of the canon was beyond his power to describe. The law permitting the state to quarantine against alfalfa hay is unconstitutional as constituting an embargo, and is so unlimited in its scope as to be unreasonable, counsel for the Oregon-Washington Railway and Navigation Company contended in Superior Court at Olympia, Wash., in the so-called "alfalfa weevil case." The burden of testimony by the state tended to prove that stringent regulations were needed if the alfalfa weevil is to be controlled. WASHINGTON A reorganization within the Treasury Department with the shifting of several of the more important bureaus, is provided for in regulations issued at Washington. Simultaneous with the issuing of the regulations, it became known that Assistant Secretary Edward Clifford, whose jurisdiction within the department will be materially changed under the reorganization is to resign. Dr. J. R. Mohler, chief of the bureau of animal industry, announced he had concluded arrangements to commence on July 2 the vaccination of stocker and feeder cattle at public stockyards against hemorrhagic septicemia, also known as stockyards pneumonia and shipping fever. Until the work is placed on the stable basis the government will furnish the vaccine and trained veterinarians to administer the treatment at actual cost. Treasury officials revealed here for the first time that the proposal to seize liquor carrying liners in American waters had reached the stage where new regulations to carry such a policy into effect had been drafted in tentative form and were in the hands of the prohibition unit. More than 110,000 acres of public land in four Western states were thrown open a few days ago to entry to ex-service men. The area comprises the second largest offering of public domain for homesteading in several years. The exact dates for filling will be announced by local land offices. Lands thrown open under the order include: California, 36,000 acres in San Bernardino county, near Kelso, and in San Diego county, near Campo, Colorado, 1,800 acres in Costilla county, near Russell. Nevada, 22,000 acres in Nye county, near Carrara. Utah, 40,000 acres in Washington county, near Central. In addition, about 11,000 acres in Juab county, near Mona, Utah, will be opened to ex-service men after the state has made selections from the tract in accordance with public land grants to it. The United States District Court in San Francisco denied a motion asking for the dismissal of a petition by Charles Lockard, an owner of the Seattle Club in the Pacific Coast Baseball League, that W. H. McCarthy, president of the league, be compelled to seat him as a director of the parent organization. McCarthy has refused to permit the participation of the Seattle Club in the regular league meetings on the ground that there is evidence of it being owned in part by William Wrigley, Jr., a stockholder in the Los Angeles Club.

CONGRESS PROBABLY WILL MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR ALIENS TO GET IN. DESIRE OF PEOPLE IS KNOWN Government Officials Feel It Is Better There Should Be Shortage of Labor Than That Our Institutions Should Be Further Endangered. By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—Prediction is made freely in Washington today that in a few years it will be a harder job for an intending immigrant to break into the United States than it is for a novi-itate in the Order of Burglar to break into a thrice-watched bank. There seems to be a conviction in the minds of government officials that in the country at large there is a determination to raise rather than to lower the immigration bars, and that the national legislators, knowing this, will see to it that the present some-what drastic laws regulating immigration shall be made yet more drastic. The recent pleas of certain elements in the community that the United States ease up a little in the matter of immigration seemingly have met with little sympathy among representatives and senators. They apparently are convinced, from perusal of the editorial expressions and glimpses of the cartooning expressions of opinion, that the country is determined not only that the foreigners now here shall be Americanized and started on their way to assimilation, but that further restriction laws should be passed and kept in force until means are found properly to distribute the immigrants after they once gain access to our shore. New York city, and other cities with it, for many years has had problems arising from the fact that certain classes of immigrants, notably those from southern and eastern Europe, have insisted on remaining in the "crowded hives of men," refusing every effort to induce them to go to the less populous centers or to take to the fields and to engage in agricultural pursuits. Our Own People Need Protection The United States government in the last thirty years, at one time or another, has passed laws and enacted regulations intended to protect the immigrants who come into the United States from sharpers, from agents of crime, and generally from those who would prey upon the credulity or the ignorance of the incomers. Today officials say that the government has done all it could to protect the immigrant, but that it has done little to protect its own people. Members of congress seem to view the situation as one calling for some means of relieving native and naturalized Americans from what some men are not afraid to call the menace of the undesirable. Virtually everything that was said on the subject of immigration during the last session tended to show that the senators and members finally were roused by what they thought was public sentiment in the matter, and intended eventually to draw in the Ellis island gates until they were little more than ajar. Members of congress, however, seemingly realize there is some truth in the statement of employers who conduct great industries that more laborers are needed, and that the only way to get them is to bring them from the other side of the water. But the officials of the government generally seem to believe that it is better to have a dearth of labor of certain kinds than it is to allow immigration to continue in the surcharged stream in which it flowed into our ports for many years. Dangers of Propaganda. It is more than surmised, also, from what one hears from officials of the government, elected and appointed, that they believe the danger of "un-Americanizing" this country is a worse danger than any dearth of labor possibly can be. Not all people, perhaps, understand just how far this un-Americanizing process has proceeded on its way. Recent developments along what are called propaganda lines for this or for that have shown that Americans of long American descent have been influenced in their thoughts, manners, methods, and views of life by contact in the so-called social centers of the country with immigrants who, instead of becoming learners of American lessons, became teachers of lessons of their own. Many of the advocates today of a communistic form of government for the United States are what might be called Mayflower or Jamestown Americans who were "moved to the beauties of communism" by the subtle teachings of communist immigrants in the social centers where they were brought together. There is a growing realization, and one has only to talk to government officials to know it, that Americanization is needed today not only among immigrants from southern and eastern Europe, but among Americans who have yielded to belief in doctrines strange and dangerous to American life. Peace In Capital Society. There is peace in official society in the city of Washington. All is quiet along the Potomac. No longer are the ladies of the cabinet, the ladies of the judiciary, the ladies of the house and the ladies of the senate at odds on the question of to whom belongs precedence in line and as to "who shall call on whom first." There never was any politics in Washington society, that is, in the interchanges of those polite amenities which make for sociability and the ordinary pleasant run of the stream of social intercourse. Into troubles over questions of precedence and who should call first partisan matters never entered. Republican women and the Democratic women in one circle were shoulder to shoulder in their determination not to let the women of another circle lord, or rather lady, it over them. Now, however, things are settled and the only ripples on the otherwise placid surface of the social waters are such as are caused by the determination of a few women of note in official life to write letters to the papers and to say some things which their sisters do not like. in the years past things were different, and it may be in the years to come things will be different again, for history_showz there never was a peace which finally was not broken by the recurrence of war. Precedence Row Not Long Ago. It was not long ago that trouble between the women of the official circle in Washington attained a national importance. Newspapers of the country were full of the "precedence row," while the local papers carried the stories of the heartburnings and the frictions on their first pages under headlines properly called at the time "screaming." There was a falling out between the "cabinet ladies" and the "house ladies." Some of the greater news agencies, generally discriminating, disseminated the information through every state that Mrs. Treasury, Mrs. Interior, Mrs. Agriculture and the rest did not call upon Mrs. First District, Mrs. Second District and Mrs. Third District, as it was of course entirely right that the "Mesdames Districts" should call first. Chairs in the cabinet are the seats of the mighty, but the mighty are lowly to those who sit presiding at the cabinet home firesides. The ladies of the house of representatives wanted to know who created the cabinet, and then they answered for themselves: "Congress." They asked if the created were greater than the creator, which meant, of course, should the wives of the created hold themselves greater than the wives of the creator! They had a fine time of it in Washington with the odds in favor of the house wife as against the cabinet wife, because, so to speak, she outnumbered her sisters something like fifty to one. The ladies of the house won out and the ladies of the cabinet finally agreed that, notwithstanding the fact that the number of the house ladies made calling a great task, they would go to it with smiles on their faces and with real affection in their hearts. Personalties Caused Problem Ructions of this same general nature continued through the years in Washington one after the other, and it is only recently that the troubled waters have become pondlike. The ladies really have had many a sad time of it in the official-social circles of Washington because personalities always to be avoided in well-regulated official circles, have crept from time to time in the teacup discussions, and one frequently heard such things as "When she lived in Bethuneville she was not so high and mighty," and "I always knew if her husband got a place she would throw her head back and do a lot of forgetting." Men of the cabinet, men of the house, men of the judiciary and men of the senate knew all about these rows, and menlike, they refused at first to have any part in them; but sooner or later—for where there is a woman there always is a way—they had to take part in them. Women whose husbands "merely were representatives of the people" were in the habit of saying that about half of the women whose husbands were representatives only on appointhive power were once upon a time themselves the wives of representatives, and that therefore they should not for get the rock from whence they were hewed nor the pit from which they were digged. A. Mosquito Catcher The device of luring an animal by imitating the cry of its mate is probably prehistoric, but it has been left to modern man to apply the method to the mosquito. Nathaniel Morgan has invented a mosquito trap consisting of a violin string, violin bow and suction fan. The bow scrapes the string and faithfully reproduces the female mosquito's high soprano serenade, and when the male comes along to see what is the matter the suction fan gently pulls him in and deposits him on a piece of flypaper. It is like the siren's song that lured the mariners to destruction. The idea seems ingenious and excellent, but it has plainly one great flaw, for it only entraps the males, and it is the female mosquitoes that inoculate malaria. Little Misa Malaprop. A physician's little daughter war asked by a visitor to sing. "You do very nicely," she com- mented. "I suppose when you grow up you'll be a great soprano?" "Why, no," answered the child. "I'm going to be a great bella donna."— Boston Transcript. United States Army Nurses.

Justice is raising her head in strange places these days, and history will soon be written upon parchment not blotted by the rancor of hatred if things go on as at present. The freeing of the six men of Elaine will prove a brilliant epoch in the life of American jurisprudence. It is a notice served to the world that race and color will no longer suffice as a means for promoting and maintaining a system of peonage in the South. There would have been no Elaine had not colored farmers in Arkansas continued to meekly submit to the share-cropping exploitation that has held them in virtual slavery for many years. But the Negro, as any other citizen on earth, is demanding the just fruits of his labor. Yes, demanding it, not standing with that hat-in-the-hand poise so familiar in other days, but standing upright, manly and unafraid. Up to now this manly attitude has constituted an offense in the South, hence the Elaine riots with its consequent frame-ups, lies and bulldozing tactics. Negroes were convicted and sentenced to death upon the perjured testimony of prejudiced white men; they have been freed, not through mercy, not through charity, nor by accident, but by a growing sense of justice, properly applied in our courts, which after all must be our safeguard and our strength. INTER-RACIAL CO-OPERATION AND THE KLAN THERE can be no doubt that in many places in the South, as well as in other sections of the country less given to racial friction, advanced leaders of the white race are honestly setting forth efforts to bring about a better understanding and a better feeling between the white and colored races. In some instances it is purely a matter of expediency and in others the outgrowth of genuine philanthropy and Christian influences. To a very large extent this country is passing through another era of reconstruction, unlike that however immediately following the war, which then was political, while the one of today is civic and economic. This present reconstruction is amply the outgrowth of problems created and born of the earlier reconstr.ction. They both have business with what is manifestly America's race problem. He would, indeed, be a poor student of events who could not observe that clear-minded, patriotic leaders of both races are seeking a way out of a situation that clogs progress and impedes development. At the same time there are organized agencies and pompous and almost proportions, setting itself up as a sort of super-government that presumes to right all our common ills through instilling fear and by intimidation. The Ku Klux Klan has not in any sense served a useful purpose, and notwithstanding its wild claims of rapid growth there is every reason to believe that the zenith of its power has been passed. There is hardly a self-respecting commonwealth within the United States today but what has openly asserted its independence of and contempt for the need of an invisible empire within its realms. Chief among the agencies bringing about this happy result is an Inter-racial Co-operative movement that had its first big meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, just a short time ago. The idea spreading with great rapidity and good results have followed in its wake. In all essentials it is the very antithesis of what the Ku Klux Klan purports to be. It is composed of conscientious leaders of both races, of women and men alike; it comes out in the open, preaching the doctrine of good will and ever alert to the amelioration of those conditions likely to cause friction. It is not afraid of racial contact and advocates education, thrift and industry. It fearlessly meets all problems, and where northern migration seems the sensible thing for Negro laborers, it encourages the idea along sane lines. It seeks to embrace within it fold the best and brainiest members of the white and colored races. So very commanding and important has the work of the commission become in its short history that much space is given its actualities in the July number of the World's Work. To quote the author of the article mentioned, who sagely observes that, "All of the members of the Commission on Inter-racial Co-operation live in the South and have been throughout their lives intimately related to Southern institutions and Southern communities. They are leaders in various phases of Southern life—legal, educational, industrial, agricultural, church and civic. The service of these men and women to the commission has been voluntary. They have been actuated solely by a desire to serve in relation to a national problem, recognizing that in the adjustment of race relations in America the South must bear the major responsibility." This is a most beautiful summing up of a co-operative effort well worth the attempt and truly far-reaching in possibilities. That there is urgent need for such a commission was aptly illustrated Tuesday night when 700 masked members of the Ku Klux Klan marched through the streets of Tuskegee, Alabama, in "protest" against the new government hospital of Negroes being manned by Negro physicians and nurses. We simply reproduce the telegraphic account of the incident when we say the Klan marched in "protest." In reality it was but the usual, time-disgraced custom of the Klan to intimidate and coverly threaten as its means of assuring "white supremacy." Surely the commission on Inter-racial Co-operation has come into existence none too soon. America needs it and many more just such noble institutions. Negro Doctors Want Federal Guard Against Klan, Says Wire to Harding New York, July 5.—Declaring the lives of R. R. Moton, president of Tuskegee Institute, and of Negro surgeons at the United States Veterans' hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., had been threatened by masked mobs, the National Association for Advancement of Colored People today wired President Harding urging that he send federal troops to protect them. The telegram follows: --- "National Association for Advancement of Colored People, representing 100,000 American citizens, asks that federal troops be sent to Tuskegee, Ala., to protect colored doctors sent to United States Veterans' hospital to care for Negro world war veterans. Lives of these United States doctors and security of Tuskegee Institute, an internationally known agency, making for interracial good will, should have protection against lawless defiance of government. We urge especially federal protection for R. R. Moton, successor to Booker T. Washington, whose life has been threatened." Drags White Boy From Watery Grave Lewiston, Pa., June 28.—The heroic action of James Allen, a young colored man of 23, when plunging into the Juniata river, saved the life of little six-year-old James Bumgardner, white, here last week. The rescue has roused among citizens generally the hope that medal. The white lad, who had been playing in a boat on the river bank, loosened it from its mooring and as the punt he may be awarded the Carnegie reached the center of the stream where the swift current caught it, he fell overboard. Allen, a former Tech High School student, saw him from where he was a block away, and running at top speed he plunged in with all his clothes on, catching the boy just as he was going down the third time. Eye witnesses commended Allen's splendid courage and expressed the opinion that only by his splendid daring and prompt action could the boy's life have been saved. The Lynching Record for the First Six Months of 1923 The Lynching Record for the First Six Months of 1923 Dear Sir: I send you the following information concerning lynchings for the first six months of this year. I find, according to the records compiled by Tuskegee Institute in the department of records and research, Monroe N. Work in charge, that in the first six months of 1923 there were fifteen lynchings. This is 15 less than the number 30 for the first six months of 1922 and 21 less than the number 36 for the first six months of 1921. Of those lynched, two were whites and thirteen were Negroes. One of the latter was a woman. One of those put to death was charged with the crime of rape. The other offenses charged were: Murder, 2; killing officer of the law, 2; wounding officer of the law, 2; no charge reported, 2; assisting man charged with rape to escape, 1; trying to pass for white, 1; resisting posse searching for man charged with rape, 1; participating in depredations connected with railroad strike, 1; cattle stealing, 1; trying to act like white man and not knowing his place, 1. The states in which lynchings occurred and the number in each state are as follows: Arkansas, 1; Florida, 7; Georgia, 2; Louisiana, 1; Mississippi, 2; Missouri, 1, and Texas, 1. Atlanta, June 27.—Within the past three and a half years, 228,938 colored people have migrated from Georgia to the north, according to figures compiled here by the Georgia Bankers' Association. During the first six months in 1923, 77,500 Negroes have left the state, and for the same period 29,513 whites have left the farms of Georgia, the figures show. As a result of this exodus, the report stated, from the rural communities, 46,674 farm dwellings have been left vacant, and estimating thirty acres to the plow, there are 55,522 idle plows. Labor shortage on the farms is estimated at 70,743 on June 15. Mme. C. J. Walker's Estate Purchases Controlling Stock of Freeman Mme. C. J.

Jones of Oakland, which was enjoyed by the large congregation. At this same service Mrs. M. F. Gaither of Esparto delivered a wonderful address on the subject, "The Keys of the Kingdom." Mrs. Gaither, for nine years, was state president of the W. H. and F. M. S. of the General Baptist Association of Northern California. And she always has a message for her hearers. Rev. Muse occupied his pulpit Sunday night and preached to another large audience. There were many visitors present. Rev. Muse and his co-workers of the Mount Pleasant Church have started a drive for a half a mile of dimes to pay off debt on church property. "I is reported among the friends of Mr. and Mrs. George Randall of Oakland that Mr. Randall, who was so very ill for a few days last week, is much improved. Cheyenne, Wyo.

Tuskegee, Ala., July 5—Action of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in requesting military protection for Dr. R. R. Moton, head of Tuskegee Institute, and Negro surgeons at the Veterans' hospital resulted, it is supposed here, because of a parade of 700 members of the Ku Klux Klan Tuesday evening. The klansmen marched by Tuskegee Institute before making their way to downtown streets. Spokesmen for the paraders said the demonstration symbolized the protest of 50,000 klansmen of Alabama against placing of Negro personnel to man the Veterans' hospital. Abbreviation and Advice.

WILLIAM WARREN, in his quiet and unassuming way, continues in his position as head of the exclusive University Club, and although he has had many opportunities of serving distinguished visitors to this city, yet this was unprecedented, when with five competent assistants he served a dinner of very fine appointments last week Sunday evening at the club rooms in honor of President Harding. Thirty guests, including members of the presidential party and the host were entertained at this elaborate function; and what with the exquisite cuisine, the decorations, consisting of flowers so entwined as to represent the national colors, and the efficient service given by Mr. Warren and his staff, a most unique affair was enjoyed and the highest compliments were offered by the chief executive of the nation and his party. Another proof, "However humble our sphere in life doing our best will always merit approbation." FR. H. E. RAHMING GIVES ALTAR BOYS REAL OUTING A real treat for the kiddies! That is what Fr. H. E. Rahming, live wire rector of the Church of the Redeemer, provided for the altar boys of his church at the Dean Hart Conference House at beautiful Evergreen, up Bear Creek canon, on the Glorious Fourth. It was a fine recreational treat, and every one of the eight boys enjoyed it huge. Others who parooke of the outing, and were wee boys and girls for a day, were Mr. and Mrs. O. L. Lawson, Atty, and Mrs. S. E. Cary and children, Dr. and Mrs. J. H. P. Westbrook, Mrs. Georgia Contee, Oliver Bowen, Fr. and Mrs. Rahming. The Dean Hart Conference House is the property of the Episcopal Diocese and the tender of it by the bishop to our group was truly appreciated. OPERATION SAVES LIFE OF MRS.

Mr. Maloney also stated that when Mrs. Tarleton is sufficiently recovered to be moved that her sister, who is now at her bedside, will bring her back to Los Angeles to remain indefinitely. —New Age-Dispatch, Los Angeles, Calif. "FAITHFUL SERVICE RENDERED" ON MONDAY morning, last, the members of the Colorado State Supreme Court appointed Rev. A. C. Jackson bailiff of the court. The appointment comes as one of the most substantial rewards of faithful service ever known in Colorado. Rev. Jackson has long been assistant librarian in the Supreme Court library, and as such won the esteem, good will and respect of all by his uniform courtesy, gentlemanly, bearing and congeniality. By his elevation to the high place of bailiff, carrying with it a very substantial increase in salary, the Negro race has been honored as but few, if any other state in the Union has so honored us. THE COLORADO STATESMAN feels that the unstinted gratitude of every Negro citizen should be extended each and every member of the Supreme Court for this very great award of merit conferred upon a member of our race. Y. M. C. A. NOTES Mr. L. H. Lightner, our chairman, has returned from a trip to the middle west. Mr. William C. Craver, international student work secretary, who has been stopping in the city for the past ten days, left Thursday morning for the Student Work Conference at Estes park. It was a great pleasure to have Mr. Carver with us, and we received several helpful suggestions from him while here. We have been visited by quite a few of the delegates now attending the district conference of the C. M. E. Church, which is meeting here. We are glad to have these out of town friends visit us now so that they may be able to make a fair comparison when they return a year hence and find us in our new building. In the payment of subscriptions last month's installment was nearer filled than that of any previous month. The present month has started off well, and should the present pace be kept up it is quite likely that the July installment will be fully covered. We wish to advise our friends that they make their payments as early as possible in the month, since it becomes more difficult for them to do so as the month grows older. Our honor roll is very small this week—very small, but very honorable. Miss Tyler, J. T. Hammond, Clyde F. Bell. Keep your eye on this roll. If your name has not already appeared, do your best to make it appear in the roll of next week. ELKS FROLIC AND DANCE A GREAT SUCCESS MONDAY evening last gave corroborative evidence to the Elks being among the best, if not the best entertainers of this portion of the Rocky Mountain region, and Mountain Lodge No. 39, Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World, deserves the highest commendation for the very successful manner in which they carried out their Frolic and Dance at the City Auditorium, where nearly a thousand people paused for a little while in relaxation from their busy and arduous duties to snatch a bit of pleasure during the good old summer time. But allike the intent and purpose of this fraternal organization that while it offers pleasure and amusement to the public, there is always an aim, an object in view to benefit mankind and to establish the idea of the thing progressive, in this event they approached the public with a plan backed by their determination to erect a $25,000 club house, where under their own vine and fig tree they could further their usefulness to their fellowmen and help to make stable the principles of the order and enlarge the benefits to be derived therefrom. The Elks Band of twenty-five pieces, under the leadership of Bandmaster Leo Davis, provided the music for the lovers of the terpsichorean art, and array of slendor from the artistic decorations of the Auditorium—the national colors mingling with pictures of elks' heads, to the uniform appearance of the masculine members of the order in their evening dress, with the magnificent white and purple uniforms and caps of the lady members of the order, added to the charming and attractive appearance of the patrons in the latest fashionable gowns and gentlemen's summer wear of up-to-date patterns—these, and all of these, gave a touch of artistic embellishment to the ballroom scene unexcelled in our pleasant events and pastimes in the city of Denver. An added feature of the occasion was the presence of J. Finley Wilson, editor of the Washington Eagle, and Grand Exalted Ruler, who came from Washington, D. C., to assist his brother Elks in their drive for their club house. Being a former Denverite, having resided heref or several years, there was quite a fellowship among the brethren and a reunion of former friendship and acquaintanceship among the hundreds of patrons, and after being formally introduced by D. L. Miller, the local head of the Elks, the Grand Exalted Ruler replied briefly in a neat and witty speech in which he praised the West for the advantages he received and the help it gave him in attaining the present position. Too much praise cannot be given Messrs. W. B. Stewart and Chas. Meyers, who with their able corps of assistants made the event so successful. INDEPENDENCE DAY QUIETLY OBSERVED IN DENVER Private Picnic Parties the Rule The one hundred and forty-seventh anniversary of our national independence was observed in a manner more quietly in Denver than has been the custom in many years. The ideal weather, of course, was suggestive of outdoor life, and as a result many private picnics were given, while many others motored to the mountains or sought out convenient fishing resorts. One of the most enjoyable of the day's outings was given at the beautiful residence of Mr. and Mrs. John Canada, 258 York. It was a garden party given in honor of Mother Ratley, in celebration of her birthday and of the glorious fourth. About twenty guests were present and enjoyed the bounties of the occasion served in the spacious sun parlor and on the lawn. A. H. W. Ross, Ed. Mason, Nias Walker and Leonard Todd, with their families, piloted a jovial party up Platte Canon and report a perfect day of recreation and pleasure. A large contingent drove to Colorado Springs to a dancing party, under the guidance of Dr. Holmes and "King Tut." Mr. and Mrs. Victor Walker were hosts to an elaborate dinner party at 12:30, complimentary to Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson, that was perhaps the most pretentious of the Independence Day social functions. The Walker mansion was elaborately decorated in the colors of Elkdom and covers were laid for Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson, Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, Edward Page, Richard Frazier, Leroy Perkins, James F. Clark, Dr. T. E. McClaim, W. B. Stewart, H. Haines, Mr. Walker of Ames lodge of Elks, Minneapolis and Victor B. Walker. It was a grand affair and highly worthy of the official head of the I. B. P. O.

E.'S HAVING FINE SESSIONS HERE Topeka District Conference, Sunday School Convention, Woman's Missionary Society and Epworth League Now in Session; Large Delegation Present The Topeka District Conference, Sunday School, Woman's Missionary and Epworth League conventions opened in the People's Presbyterian Church Tuesday of this week. The delegation began arriving early Wednesday morning and several of the ministers and delegates were delayed, due to engine trouble; in addition to this, there were those who motored from El Dorado, Larned and other points in Kansas and Missouri, and they suffered several blowouts en-route here. The conference and conventions will remain in session through Sunday. Rev. R. P. Tyler is presiding elder of the Topeka district and is president of the district conference; Mrs. L. A. Story of El Dorado, Kan., is vice president of the Sunday School convention and will preside in the absence of Miss Mamie L. Williams, the president, who was unavoidably detained from being present to preside; Mrs. Carrie Harrison is president of the Woman's Missionary Convention, and is presiding during its sessions; Mrs. H. Rogers is president of the Epworth League Convention and presides during the sessions of the league convention. Fine programs are being rendered. The round table talks are proving to be of great interest. The discussions are of such moment that many of the sessions are very much overdrawn. The topics in the Sunday School convention are especially interesting. Two special topics of the Sunday School convention, "Sunday School Administration," and "Sunday School Projects," were the occasion of much comment. Several differed in their opinion as to what might be the proper administration of the Sunday School, as well as the proper projects which the Sunday School should put into operation. The aim of the discussions is to better acquaint the delegates with the best methods to be employed in the propagation of the work of the Sunday School, to the end that the Sunday School may get a firmer grasp upon the life and attention of the young people. These two particular topics proved to be of unusual interest. NOTES OF CENTRAL BAPTIST CHURCH Rev.

A young man with a pretty but firt-tatious fancee wrote to a supposed rival: "I've been told that you have been seen kissing my girl. Come to my office at eleven on Friday. I want to have this matter out." The rival answered: "I've received a copy of your circular letter and will be present at the meeting." Cologne la 200 Years Old. The recipe for making the original eau de cologne was discovered more than two hundred years ago, and since that time it has been intrusted to only a dozen persons.

BF While the regular form of radio communication has been widely used in boy scout encampments, there are limitations which restrict its use to those scouts more advanced in the art. For instance, the wave-length regulations must be rigidly adhered to, and special licenses must be secured before the sets may be placed in operation. The "air" cannot be used indiscriminately for fear of causing serious interference with receiving sets for which the messages are not intended. Since 1 and 2 are both on the to "A," there will be no diff voltage and hence no signal phones. How convenient! But with grounds 1 and "HQ" is all set to receive from "C," whose signals were exe the first case. "HQ" and "therefore, be carrying on a tion, and at the same time "B" could start up and exch messages without bothering two at all. Of course, it is There is another form of communication which is suitable for scout camps and which is deserving of wider application. The double ground system has been little used in this country, although it was of immense value to the front line of the French army during the World war. The transmitter is so simple and well known as to require little explanation, for its most important unit is the well-known spark coil. This instrument has fallen into disrepute in radio to a great extent, not only because of its gruff and uncertain tone, but also on account of the poor tuning qualities of sets using spark coils. But with the double ground hook-up there is no tuning required, and since it is useful primarily for slow speed communication the low note is no obstacle. In Fig. 1 appears the hook-up for a double ground transmitter. The terminals of the spark coll are placed a fraction of an inch apart and a wire run out in each direction, where contact is made with the ground. The longer these two wires, the greater will be the possibilities for distant communication, although if they are about fifty feet each code conversation may be carried on over distances not exceeding one-half mile. If insulated wire is used it may be strung on the ground, although if it isn't insulated it should be kept a foot or two off the ground by wooden stakes. The grounds may be in the form of iron pipes about four feet long driven deep into the earth; the better the contact, of course, the better will be the results. In fact, a short strip of chicken wire, buried a foot or two beneath the soil, is ideal for the purpose. No connection should be made to piping systems, for that would destroy the possibilities of longer distance. In Fig. 1 is shown a sample receiving circuit. There is no tuning required, all that is needed being an audio-frequency amplifier. WD-11 tubes may easily be used, with two dry cells for lighting the filaments. This arrangement is indicated, and a single rheostat is used. The receiving arrangements are identical with those of the transmitting system as far as the ground wires are concerned. There is an unusual advantage in the double ground arrangement in that it is directional. Fig. 2 shows a typical arrangement of double ground outfits at a boy scout camp. There are, let us assume, one headquarters station and four outposts. The headquarters station is equipped with four grounds, forming two double grounds. Fig. 2—Arrangement of Transmitting Stations. with a double pole, double throw switch connected so that either may be used. First, suppose outpost "A" to be sending. On account of the high resistance of the soil between the two grounds of station "A," the electric currents must of necessity spread out materially in passing between one of A's grounds and the other. There is a considerable difference of voltage between the two grounds, as any scout who happens to get his hands on the secondary terminals will testify! Therefore, between grounds 3 and 4 of the "HQ" station there will also be a difference of voltage, on account of the weak currents set up by station "A." The farther "HQ" is from "A," the weaker will be the currents, and the response in the telephone receivers correspondingly weaker. But suppose "HQ" were to switch over to grounds 1 and 2 What would happen then? Since 1 and 2 are both on the same line to "A," there will be no difference of voltage and hence no signal in the telephones. How convenient! But with grounds 1 and 2, station "HQ" is all set to receive from station "C," whose signals were excluded in the first case. "HQ" and "D" might, therefore, be carrying on a conversation, and at the same time "A" and "B" could start up and exchange some messages without bothering the other two at all. Of course, it is necessary to use the compass quite accurately, as scouts are trained to do, in placing the grounds. To Have Ground That Will Keep Itself Wet Most fans in hooking up a radio outfit either have a poor aerial and a good ground or a good aerial and a poor ground. Almost always it's a poor ground. Here is a very simple way to make a good ground, one that will keep itself wet for a long time without having to watch it. Secure a piece of galvanized pipe three-quarters inch in diameter and $5 \frac{1}{2}$ feet long, also a piece of two-inch pipe LEAD-N WIRE 2' PIPE 3'/4' PIPE WATER DAMP DAMP GROUND GROUND three feet long. Drive the three-quarter inch pipe into the ground about one foot. Fill the pipe with water and let it settle, then fill it up again. The water in the two-inch pipe serves to keep the smaller pipe full all the time and also keeps the ground wet around the smaller pipe.—Dick H. Roberts. Your Receiving Sets Must Be Kept Clean Cleanliness and neatness are important for efficient operation of a radio receiving set. Dust should not be allowed to gather on the instruments for it causes leaks in the circuit. Dust between the plates of a variable condenser develops short circuits, and collections of dust or soot on the antenna insulators make it easy for the radio currents to leak away to the ground before they reach the receiving set. One operator noticed the signals gradually growing weaker. He overhauled the entire set, carefully inspecting all connections, but this failed to locate the trouble. He began to lose faith in radio. One morning while dusting about the room his wife just happened to brush the dust off the spiderweb webs mounted on top of the cabinet. That night the set worked to perfection, as it did when first installed. Keep Storage Battery in Proper Condition The following pointers will be helpful in keeping your A battery in proper condition: Do not allow the battery to become completely discharged. Always maintain the level of the electrolyte (acid and water) above the tops of the plates, usually one-quarter inch. Keep the battery well charged at all times, as it is difficult to revive a dead battery which has been standing idle for a long time. Do not allow the electrolyte to bubble over on to the tops of the cells. If this happens, reduce the charging rate. Keep the top clean to avoid leakage loss. Determine the gravity range of your particular battery and keep it within proper limits by frequent tests with a hydrometer. France Requires No License. The committee appointed by the French ministry of posts and telegraphs has recommended that no licenses be required for receiving apparatus. NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS British Honor Our Unknown Soldier Make Decisions of Great Importance U. S. Army Tanks Mow Down Trees See Great Evil in Forest Exhaustion WASHINGTON.—Tribute was paid to America's "unknown soldier" when a wreath was laid on the tomb at Arlington by the members of the "20 club," composed of British newspaper and advertising men, who were in the city as guests of the Washington Advertising club. The English visitors were delegates to the recent convention of the Advertising Clubs of the World at Atlantic City and succeeded in getting the next convention to take place in London. John Cheshire, president of the club, and who had five sons in the World war, placed the wreath on the tomb as the members of the club stood for a minute with bowed heads in silent respect for the soldier. Leaving Arlington, the party, in 17 automobiles, drove around the speedway and to the Washington monument, the Lincoln memorial, up Seventeenth street, past the Pan-American building, Corcoran Gallery of Art, Continental Memorial hall and the Red Cross building. Passing up Sixteenth street and viewing the famous homes and embassies, the party swung down CASES brought to determine the constitutionality of the Shepherd-Towner maternity act were dismissed for want of jurisdiction by the Supreme court, which refused to pass upon the validity of the law. Justice Sutherland, announcing the court's opinion that the cases could not be considered on their merits, pointed out that the cases in which the court hitherto had assumed jurisdiction differed from the maternity cases, which presented only political and not judicial questions. The highest court, Justice Sutherland said, was without authority to pass upon abstract questions. He asserted that a state had no right to bring suit to protect the rights of the citizens of the United States. The federal government must look after the rights of its citizens, he said, taking the position that there was nothing presented to distinguish the citizens to such an extent as to give the state a right to act for them. Referring to the claims of a taxpayer, as represented in the separate case brought by Harriet A. Frothingham, the justice asserted that the effect of the law upon future taxes was so. remote that no basis was offered under which any court of equity could entertain the complaint. The Supreme court will not assume jurisdiction over the authority of another and co-ordinate branch of the government, the congress, the justice said, and will consider the constitu- UNCLE SAM'S herd of mechanical elephants were on display at the army tank school, Camp Meade, Md., in a demonstration put on for the benefit of some seventy officers and instructors from the staff school at the army war college. Half a dozen of the huge, lumbering "Mark VIII" giant tanks developed during the war, but too late to share in the fighting, and a whole flock of the six-ton French type which did get into action participated in the show. The demonstration is one of the series of educational exhibits for the staff college students, all of whom are experienced officers whose military instruction is being rounded out to insure an adequate supply of general officers and men with general staff qualifications. The present class will complete its course in time to go out to the summer training camps as instructors in the higher branches of military work. To introduce the student officers to the possibilities of modern tank warfare, Col. S. D. Rockenbach, commandant of the tank corps and school, sent two of his huge 40-ton "Mark VIII" monsters skirmishing through the heavy woods on either side of a narrow roadway. When the signal to advance was given, the land battle- INVESTIGATIONS by the Department of Agriculture show that forest exhaustion has added greatly to the cost of construction. Lumber production has been decreasing for 13 years in the face of an unparalleled building need. Of 37 eastern and southern lumber-producing states 36 showed a decreased cut, and only one a slight increase in 1920; while Pacific slope states all report substantial increases, showing that the center of production is shifting to the western states, the last of our softwood reserves. Thirty years ago, after the depletion of New York and Pennsylvania white pine sections, the American lumber market was drawing its supply from the Great Lakes states. When the source in those sections became exhausted and the forests were no longer able to supply the demand or furnish enough to keep the mills in operation, the industry moved to the southern yel- Columbia road and drove past the residence of former President Wilson to the British embassy, where the party stopped and called to pay their respects. The British visitors and guests were received by President Harding at the White House. Much favorable comment about America's capital city was voiced by the visitors. One member of the club sald, "Certainly the hospitality here is wonderful, everything for us and even arrangements have been made with the local weather man to provide some real English weather during our short stay." One of the half-dozen ladies of the party declared she thought things in America were perfectly all right and the only objection she had was that "your dollar bills飞 so fast." The members of the Washington Advertising club expressed themselves as fairly captivated with the pleasant and affable manner of the visitors, and are all anxious to fulfill the "On to London!" slogan next year. Herbert Hoover was the principal speaker at a luncheon at the New Willard. tionality of a law only when there is a direct issue presented in which the legal rights of a citizen would be impaired by some enforcement which he is unable to escape. The government's injunction suit to prevent dealings in sugar futures upon the New York coffee and sugar exchange was advanced by the court for hearing on November 12. At the same time it was announced that it would consider at its next term cases questioning the jurisdiction of state courts to try damage suits arising out of interstate shipments of cattle, as raised in a case brought by the Great Northern Railway company against the Galbraith Cattle company and other shipers of cattle from Cody, Wyo., to Seville, Mont. States cannot compel national banks to surrender to them the deposits made in the name of persons who, under the state laws, are "considered dead," the court held in a case brought by the First National bank of San Jose against the state of California. In 1880, P. A. Campbell deposited $1,192 in the San Jose bank. Since then he has not checked upon the account nor made an addition to it. His present address is unknown. California claimed that, under two laws passed in 1915, the money escheated to the state and that the courts of the state also took that view. The bank contended, however, that the national banking act and not the state laws controlled in such cases. ships surged forward resistlessly, tearing great swaths as they passed, as though twin, narrow-gauge cyclones had cut parallel paths of wreckage through the woodland. Towering trees went down before them like reeds, the tanks grinding them remorselessly under the steel-shod runners. At times each tank was knocking over half a dozen trees at the same time, literally rooting them from the earth and lumbering forward over prostrate trunks a foot or more in diameter. The sheer power of the geared Liberty engines overcame every obstacle of ditch or bank or brush or tree clump, and not an inch to right or left from the selected course were the monsters forced to swerve. Later a miniature tank attack was delivered over the rough, sandy field that is the playground of the school herd. Three "Mark VIII's" led the drive, their six-pounder guns roaring and machine guns snarling as they crept forward behind a smoke barrage hurled from their guns. They looked like crawling dragons, breathing smoke and flame, as they shouldered their way over ditches and sand dunes to disappear over a ridge beyond in clouds of dust and spouts of flying debris flung up from land miner that gave a realistic battle picture. low pine region, and is rapidly duplicating the same procedure there. The result follows that the country may be wholly dependent upon the Pacific slope. Not only is this the only remaining domestic source of softwoods, but a recent survey of the world's supply discloses that there are no foreign forests of this character that America may draw upon when its own are exhausted. A bulletin issued by the department says: "The average rate of decrease over the last 13 years has been about 2 per cent a year. The figures for 1920 are about 27 per cent lower than the high production peak that was reached in 1907, when we produced about 46,000,000,000 feet. We have passed the high point and the present tendency downward is permanent. Since this is the case there must be some active steps taken to insure permanent local sources of timber for the future." ```markdown ``` THE COLORADO STATESMAN [ ] the Mouth-Piece of the People of Colorado and the Entire West RELIABLE chronicle of their doings and gress; a faithful mirror their wants, their hopes, ir best aspiration.

Green peas cooked in as little water as possible, served with a generous portion of butter and cream and seasoned to taste with salt and Green peas cooked in as little water as possible, served with a generous portion of butter and cream and seasoned to taste with salt and white pepper, is a vegetable dish which with bread supplies a balanced meal. Pea Soup.—Cook a plum of green peas until soft, saving the liquor in which they were cooked. Put the peas through a puree strainer, add the liquor. Scald one quart of milk with a slice of onion, remove the onion and thicken the milk with two tablespoonfuls of butter cooked smooth with two tablespoonfuls of flour; mix all the ingredients and bring to the boiling point. Serve well seasoned with a spoonful of whipped cream, sprinkled with chopped chives if desired. Pea, Peanut and Olive Salad.—Take one cupful of cooked green peas, one cupful of chopped celery, three-fourths of a cupful of chopped peanuts, a dozen green olives finely minced. Blend all the ingredients and mix with a highly seasoned salad dressing. Serve on head lettuce. A salmon loaf served with a sauce in which a cupful of peas are heated and poured around the loaf makes a most nourishing and attractive dish. The loaf is prepared as usual, using egg, bread crumbs, a bit of onion and salt and pepper for seasoning. Steam in a shapely loaf (a small bread pan makes a good-shaped loaf). Turn out on a hot platter and pour the sauce (made of butter, flour and milk cooked together as an ordinary white sauce) around the fish after stirring in a cupful or less of green peas well-cooked and seasoned. Spanish Meat Dish.—Slice a layer of potatoes in a well-greased baking dish, cover with thinly sliced roast beef with some of the gravy, add a shredded onion and cover with a cupful of tomato, adding seasonings. Bake until the potatoes are tender. Just before serving sprinkle the top of the dish with three tablespoonfuls of cooked peas. I heard the proud strawberry saying "Only look what a ruby I've made.

Tomato Salad. —Slice thick slices of ripe, red tomatoes; spread with a layer of seasoned cottage cheese, place another slice on top, spread with mayonnaise dressing and garnish with a ball of cheese. Place on lettuce with a spoonful or piped whirl of mayonnaise on each. German Salad.—Chop a small head of tender cabbage with one small onion, season well with salt and cayenne. Cut in very fine dice a slice or two of salt pork, the amount depending upon the size of the cabbage used, fry until a nut brown and pour fat and most of the diced pork over the cabbage, mix well and then add a quarter of a cupful of boiling vinegar, mix and add seasoning to taste. Garnish the top of the salad with a mound of the pork dice and a fringe of parsley. Chops a la Maison d'Or.—Prepare six lamb chops by inserting in each a slice of truffle. Season with salt and pepper. Dip the chops in beaten eggs, then in fresh bread crumbs. Fry in a little butter four minutes for each side. Serve with six heart-shaped pieces of fried bread with a little pate de foils gras and one quarter of a cupful of fruit juice canned or fresh Salmon Salad.—Make small cups of new cooked and pickled beets. Slice off the bottom so they will stand level and fill with finely diced cucumber and flaked salmon mixed with salad dressing. Serve on lettuce leaves. Tomato and Cucumber Salad.—Place overlapping slices of ripe tomato and cucumber on a long platter. Pass with a thick mayonnaise dressing. Tomato cups filled with chopped cucumber and a tablespoonful of onion marinated with French dressing make a pretty and tasty salad. Serve topped with a spoonful of mayonnaise. Cottage cheese, fresh ripe chopped cherries and a bit of mayonnaise is a very nice combination for a salad which may also be used as a sandwich filling. Nellie Maxwell MANY USES FOR CORN AS FOOD DESCRIBED MANY USES FOR CORN AS FOOD DESCRIBED Value Is Very Similar to That of Many Other Cereals. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Sections on corn flour, hominy, popcorn and fresh, canned and dried "sweet" or green corn have been added to material formerly published in what was popularly termed "the cornmeal bulletin," Farmers' Bulletin 555, "Corn Meal as a Food and Ways of Using It," together with matter that has not been issued before in bulletin form by the United States Department of Agriculture. The result is a very comprehensive publication, Farmers' Bulletin 1286, "Corn and Its Uses as Food," containing more than sixty household recipes and covering the various products and corn preparations commonly used in the United States. The food value of corn, it is pointed out, is very similar to that of other cereals. When used in a diet that also supplies flesh foods, dairy products and vegetables or fruits, the choice between the various cereals depends more on personal preference and price than on the nourishment supplied. If corn is abundant or cheap, or if wheat, rice or other cereals are scarce or dear, corn may be safely substituted for them. Corn preparations may be used in place of starchy vegetables such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, or beans, but in such cases some other vegetable or fruit should also be included in the diet to supply the mineral matter and vitamins which are less abundant or lacking in the corn. Corn can be substituted for part of the wheat in making yeast bread, but not for all, because it does not contain the necessary gluten. It can also be used in place of part or all of the wheat flour in many good quick breads and cakes. Differences in milling methods make "old process" or "water-ground" and "new process" corn meal differ in taste, constituents and keeping quality. White corn meal is made from a different and, as a rule, milder-flavored variety of corn than yellow corn meal. The preference for one or the other kind is largely personal or local. Coarsely-ground white corn, from which the skin and germ have been removed, is usually called samp, or coarse hominy; a somewhat finer, granular product is called hominy grits. Corn meal results from still finer grinding and treatment according to the "old process" or "new process"; corn flour is corn meal ground and bolted until it is as fine as wheat flour. During the war corn flour was widely sold, but at present it is not ordinarily found in retail stores. Bakers and sausage makers use it, and it is one of the ingredients of some of the pancake flours on the market. Corn starch is separated out from the other ingredients of the corn kernel and sold under that name for cooking purposes; it is not discussed at any length in this bulletin. Corn meal may be boiled to make mush or porridge, which may then be used in a number of ways. The meal also forms the basis of many quick breads, cakes and puddings, and is combined with milk, cheese, eggs, meat, or other foods, into nutritious and wholesome dishes which may be served as the main dish at a meal. All kinds of hominy are used as breakfast cereals, or in place of starchy vegetables, and in a variety of cakes, puddings and dishes made with meat, fish or cheese. Popcorn is made from special varieties of corn, the dried kernels of which burst open when quickly heated. A pound of popped corn has practically the same food value as a pound of dry corn meal or hominy. Partly ripened or green corn, especially certain sweet varieties, is a favorite vegetable in this country. It is in common use, both fresh and canned, and is occasionally preserved by drying. The bulletin includes recipes for using corn in all these forms, and directions for making lye hominy or whole hulled hominy, at home, and for drying corn and canning it. It is free upon application to the United States Department of Agriculture. Washington. CLAM CHOWDER GOOD CHANGE Recipe Recommended by Department of Agriculture in Preparing Fish Products. The United States Department of Agriculture suggests the use of the following recipe in preparing fish products for sale. Plain soda crackers are often broken up into clam chowder at serving time when New England cooks make it. Heat the pork or bacon and fry the onions, celery and leek in the fat; add the liquid from the clams, water and potatoes, cook 10 minutes, add the clams, tomatoes, salt, pepper and thyme. Worcestershire sauce according to taste may be added. Simmer for two hours, and add the parsley. When serving, equal amounts of butter and flour may be creamed together and added as thickening to the heated chowder. MANY CONVENIENCES AID CLEANING WORK "Scrubbing Chariot" Rolls Pai Around Without Effort. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) The woman in the photograph does not have many conveniences, apparently, but she has learned to make light work of cleaning by having a tall, narrow closet in a handy place in which to store her long-handled brushes, brooms and mops. She has also what is popularly known as a "scrubbing charlot," which can be used either as this housewife is using it, to roll her pail easily about, or, if there are corners which must actually be scrubbed, to kneel on as she works. This "charlot" can be easily constructed at home by an amateur carpenter. A woman mopping the floor in a kitchen. "Scrubbing Charlet" in Operation.

A small shelf or two for cleansing agents such as scouring powder, ammonia, lye, etc., is a convenience. The picture shows a homemade closet with shelves, placed on the back porch. IN WELL-EQUIPPED KITCHEN More and Better Work Can Be Done in Room Arranged for Comfort and Convenience. The kitchen is the workshop in most farm homes. In it the housekeeper and her helpers prepare the food for the family, and from it as a center carry on most of the other housework. More and better work can be done in a well-lighted shop arranged for the comfort and convenience of the workers and equipped with good tools than in a dark shop where much time must be spent in unnecessary steps and energy wasted with scattered equipment. Business men have found this a sound principle, and it should be applied to the farm kitchen so that the housekeeper can do her work more quickly and with the least fatigue. Household Questions A good vinegar will awaken the flavors of vegetables and salads. To preserve the rubber bathing cap sprinkle the inside with talcum.

SANDWICH SUGGESTIONS A sweet sandwich takes the place of cake and is much more wholesome for a child's lunch than cake. For afternoon tea sandwiches the following may be helpful: Bread Date - Ginger Sandwiches Chop a handful of dates and add chopped, preserved ginger and the ginger sirup to taste; add a bit of lemon juice and simmer until soft over slow heat. When cold spread on thin slices of bread well- buttered. Raisin and Peanut Sandwiches. Put a cupful of seeded raisins through a food chopper, add one cupful of peanut butter and a little creamed butter. Spread on buttered slices of whole wheat bread. Raspberry Jam Sandwiches. Cut sponge cake into thin slices. Put to together with raspberry jam or black- berry jam. Cut in rounds or tri- angles. Orange Marmalade Sandwiches.—Beat cream cheese with a little softened butter or thick cream until soft and smooth enough to spread. Butter thin slices of bread, spread with the cheese, then cover with orange marmalade. Orange Sandwiches.—Take two tablespoonfuls of orange juice, one teaspoonful of lemon juice and one cupful of confectioner's sugar; beat until smooth. Butter wafers crisped in the oven and cooled are spread with the filling, sandwich fashion. Sandwich Filling.—Finely chop hard-cooked eggs; to each egg add three olives, one-fourth of a cupful of raisins. Molsten well with salad dressing and spread on buttered bread. Radish Sandwiches.—Slice firm red radishes in very thin slices and cover with French dressing. Let them stand for 10 to 15 minutes, drain and place them on buttered bread, cover with another slice. The sandwiches may be open if desired, adding a bit of minced green pepper and cream cheese for a garnish. The cheese, if softened with cream, may be piped on in any design with a pastry tube. Who does his duty is a question Too complex to be solved by me. But he, I venture the suggestion. Does part of two, that plants a tree. WHAT TO EAT The daily problem of planning and preparing three meals a day is like house work— "powerful constant." To spend wisely and provide acceptable meals is no small task. The majority of housewives do their own mark- "powerful constant." To spend wisely and provide acceptable meals is no small task. The majority of housewives do their own marketing, preparing and serving all foods. Three times three hundred and sixty-five meals is enough to discourage anybody, and when the family complains the burden is often too heavy to bear. During the summer let us try to make the work as light as possible without depriving the family of the required amount of food. In probably 80 per cent of the homes of America the cost of every bit of food must be carefully planned, to keep within the budget. It is in these homes where a knowledge of food values is so important, for they should have food which represents the highest food value for every penny spent. In homes where there are eight and ten at the table there will not be much to spend for luxuries. Substantial stew with vegetables, soups that are full of nourishment, green peas when they are plentiful. A garden where one may go for green vegetables during the summer may prove a big saving. One family of nine had served for a meal just green peas with bread and butter—the peas well-cooked and seasoned with butter and milk—and each had all he wanted of the food provided. This method was used very often in serving foods, making a meal easy for the mother to prepare with the help of the children. They grew up to be sturdy men and women well-nourished and with fine minds. If the mother will balance her meals for the day so that if food principles are lacking in one meal they appear in another of the same day, there will be no fear of undernourished children. When one is poor it is vitally important that the mother knows how to buy cheap, nourishing foods. Rose Salad.—Take one cupful of boiled beets finely chopped, one cupful of celery, two hard-cooked eggs and one small green onion finely chopped. Mix with French dressing and garnish with small cooked beets cut like a rose. Serve the salad in nests of watercress. Nestie Maxwell W. K.
