THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY WASHINGTON LETTER (Lincoln News Service.) Washington, Jan. 12.—Possibly no event in recent years has commanded the attention of the colored citizens throughout the country, upon affairs political, as did the splendid teamwork of a few racially alert political leaders, who recently appeared before the Republican National Committee. The concentrated and intelligent effort of these men from the various states is stimulating to the rank and file and serves to emphasize the virtue and necessity of group action. Furthermore, it appears to have marked the beginning of new era of all-around teamwork, a co-operative element which has heretofore been sadly lacking when important questions pertaining to the political welfare of the race have been up for consideration. In keeping with the cardinal principle of the Republican organization, to correct party ills from within rather than from without, the National Committee reconsidered its plan of basing convention representation upon the number of Republican votes cast in each Congressional district, as ordered by the 1920 Chicago convention, and decided that the apportionment of delegates to national conventions must be in absolute harmony with the traditions of the great Republican party. The following statement of Chairman John T. Adams clearly indicates both his personal attitude and that of the committee: "The apportionment of delegates to the 1920 Republican national convention gave every Congressional district—north and south—one delegate, regardless of its Republican strength. As a reward for party activity it gave an additional delegate to every Congressional district casting 7,500 Republican votes in the preceding presidential election. "The apportionment of delegates to the 1924 Republican national convention maintains the principle of giving one delegate to every Congressional district. It does this out of justice to Congressional districts in the south, where the Democratic party refuses a free ballot and an honest count to Republicans, both black and white. "For the Republican party to abandon that principle would be equivalent to its denying Republicans of those southern districts any voice whatever in party convention, because the Democrats had first denied them the right of citizenship at home. This would work a double injustice to Republicans of such districts and would lend encouragement to further disfranchisement of southern Republicans by the dominant Democratic machines of the 'solid south.' "The 1924 apportionment, however, raises from 7,500 to 10,000 the minimum Republican vote necessary to give any Congressional district an additional delegate. This rule gives extra representation in the party conventions to those districts which furnish the Republican vote on election day. In spite of this increase of 2,500 in the basic vote necessary to give any district two delegates, the 'solid south' gains nine district delegates over 1920. This proves a healthy increase of Republican party strength in the south which should be awarded. "Another very important change in the 1924 apportionment is the granting of three additional delegates at large to every state which cast its electoral vote for the Republican party candidate." VOL. XXX Chairman Adams' announcement is heartening to the voters back home, and, as an added joy, there is the full knowledge that the "bunching of hits" by the political gladiators of the race helped to bring about this salutary result. Prosperity Due to Republican Policies (Lincoln Service.) Washington, Jan. 12.—When Henry Ford, who employs a large number of colored wage earners, said: "I am satisfied that 90 per cent of the people feel perfectly safe with Coolidge, and I feel, too, that the country is perfectly safe with him," he gave expression to the thought that is in the minds of most large employers of labor, who are hoping for a continuance of national prosperity. With mines, factories and mills running at capacity production; with labor generally employed; and with business men preparing to make extensions that were retarded on account of the war, then appears to be a settled conviction that this is no time to rock the political boat or to try out national economic theories that have not had the acid test. If full recovery in industrial and financial affairs is desired and if the horrors of unemployment are to be avoided, the machinery of the government must function to the satisfaction of those whose investments of capital in business enterprises make it possible for industrial and financial activity. With 811 out of every 1,000 colored males, ten years of age and over, gainfully employed, and with 389 in each group of 1,000 colored females, ten years of age and over, also gainfully employed, our economic status shows a remarkable improvement, in all sections of the country, over the prevailing condition of but a few years ago. This is reflected in the homebuying activities of the race; in the organization of banking institutions; in the extensions of our insurance companies; in the increase in the number of our retail dealers; in the purchase and building of churches; in the mechanical appearance and increased circulation of our newspapers; and in the exceptionally large number of students attending the various colleges and universities all over the country. In the recent announcement of his political attitude, Mr. Ford said: "Mr. Coolidge has shown in these months of service a great many qualities that should please his countrymen. I think they all feel that Mr. Coolidge means to do right. And when a man means to do right, so far as I have observed, it is usually quite easy for him to find the way to do right." In these words Mr. Ford gave an expert opinion of a remarkably successful business man, an opinion that should cause us to think deeply if we hope for the protection of our citizenship and our further advancement in business and industry. Editor Harry C. Smith and Alderman Tom Fleming of Cleveland will probably have Central avenue fixed up in fine shape for the delegates and visitors who will flock to that city early in June. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JANUARY 12, 1924 SHORT CUTS More females than males reach the age of 100 years and over. The number of colored persons employed in domestic and personal service is decreasing. The nineteenth chapter of Second Kings and the thirty-seventh chapter of Isaiah are exactly alike. As a protection to the passengers, all Pullman porters and dining-car waiters are given physical examinations regularly. Democratic newspapers and orators are no longer complaining about President Coolidge being a "silent man." Also out of the South comes an anti-Ku Klux Klan organization open to every American without reference to sex religion nationality or race. The three Kerrford brothers of Atchison, Kans., own a stone quarry in which they employ twenty-seven men. Recent improvements include a $35,000 machinery equipment. Colored veterans of the World War appear to be more interested in adequate and conveniently located hospitalization facilities for their wounded "buddies" than in the proposed bonus legislation. The president of the Merchants' Association of New York claims that the adoption of the Mellon tax plan will give assurance of prosperity and provide insurance against unemployment. There are approximately 88,000 colored females of voting age in Pennsylvania, 73,000 in New York, 69,000 in Maryland, 61,000 in Illinois, 58,000 in Missouri, 56,000 in Ohio, 38,000 in New Jersey, 25,000 in Indiana, 21,000 in West Virginia and 18,000 each in Kansas and Michigan. The Norfolk Journal and Guide says: "It is extremely doubtful if Mr. McAdoo's popularity with colored people could do much good in a Democratic national election. The bugaboo of the south looms across his horizon. The south of disfranchisement and mobs comes too close to him when he votes a national Democratic ticket. Colored Contralto Soloist Scores with Philharmonic Colored Contralto Soloist Scores with Philharmonic Philadelphia, Pa., Jan. 12.—Marian Anderson, a 22-year-old colored girl, of this city, recently scored a heavy hit as contralto solostir with the Philharmonic Society, one of America's leading orchestras. The young artist, who is at present studying with Gluseppe Boghetti, rose to the occasion of her opportunity and, with musicianly sensibility and a voice of quality far above the average, randered a number of outstanding selections. First she offered "O Mio Fernando," from Donizetti's "Favorita." Then she sang two Negro spirituals, "My Lord, What a Mornln," and "Heav'n, Heav'n." Delivering the Donizetti air with tellervor and dramatic emphasis, she passed to the more congenial field of the racial songs in which she was thoroughly at home. These naive ballads she gave in a way that reached and stirred the hearts of all who heard her luscious and resonant voice, with a driving power of art and temperament behind it. The applause, when she finished, came like a sudden blast of gun-fire and continued through so many recalls that it seemed as if a rule must be broken and an encore granted. Mrs. Paul W. Walker Laid to Rest Mrs. Paul W. Walker Laid to Rest Death of Pioneer Woman Mourned by All Classes of Citizens "Friend after friend departs: Who hath not lost a friend? There is no union here of hearts That finds not here an end. Were this frail world our final rest, Living or dying, none were blest." MRS. PAUL W. WALKER, who rigthly belongs to the class of Colorado pioneers, was born in Lexington, Mo., Jan. 15, 1856, accompanying her parents to Independence, Mo., in 1864, thence to Kansas City, Mo., in 1876, afterwards to Canon City, Colo., in May, 1880, finally arriving in Denver in the autumn of the same year, where she resided until her death, which took place at her late residence, 1623 Gillip street, Friday, Dec. 28, 1923. She was the beloved wife of Paul W. Walker, also a pioneer, and lived happily with him for the period of forty-one and one-half years. A devoted wife, consistent and faithful church worker, and leading character in many fraternal circles, Mrs. Walker attained a respect and popularity from all classes of citizens, and the number of telegrams and letters received from all parts of the country by her greatly bereaved husband expressing sorrow and offering words of sympathy over the death of one who led such a long, honorable and useful life in this community, was a full attestation of the esteem in which the deceased was held as well as her outstanding characteristic features in her service to humanity, which made her life a benediction to those whom she unstintingly helped, fostered and encouraged along the journey of life. Her services to the Zion Baptist Church for forty years ("one of the pillars" as she was generally termed) will never be forgotten, and although she was a member of the New Hope Baptist within the past three years she always cherished a warm feeling for its progress. Bearing her last illness with Christian fortitude for nearly two years she finally succumbed to the inevitable—Death, the state through which all mortals must pass are the day of final reckoning. The funeral service, held at Shorter A. M. E. Church last Sunday, was very impressive and largely attended, the spacious edifice being crowded, an evidence of a touching and deserving tribute to this noble pioneer woman who had for so many years taken a recognized part in the church and fraternal activities of Denver. Many different organizations of which the deceased was a member were assigned parts in the funeral and submitted resolutions appropriately attesting the sterling qualities of Mrs. Walker. These included the Lone Star Chapter of the Eastern Star, the Household of Ruth and the New Hope Baptist Church, also Rocky Mountain Lodge, G. U. O. of O. F. No. 2320, of which Mr. Walker is an honored member, offered resolutions befitting the occasion as a mark of respect to their bereaved brother. Rev. John E. Ford, former pastor of the Zion Baptist Church of Denver, now pastoring one of the largest and wealthiest Negro churches in America at Jacksonville, Fla., preached the funeral sermon. Being an old friend of the family, Rev. Ford could speak with definite knowledge and Christian assurance of Mrs. Walker's many rare qualities, giving a profound impressiveness to the service. The floral offerings were many and beautiful, some of the rare pieces having been sent from the Western Newspaper Union and the Stockmen Record where Mr. Walker is employed, and a special tribute representing "the gates ajar" from old friends of Zion.

Dr. Ward Sent To Tuskegee as Chief Surgeon Indianapolis Physician Gets Appointment Through Senator Watson; Has War Record Indianapolis, Ind., Jan. 4.—Dr. J. H. Ward of this city was appointed by General Hines director of the United States Veterans' bureau, to be chief of the surgical service of the government hospital for colored soldiers at Tuskegee, Ala. The appointment was made on the recommendation of Senator Watson of Indiana. The senator is quoted as saying to the newspaper men: "I was glad to recommend Maj. Ward because he measures up to the high standard established by the Veterans' bureau in selecting officers for the Tuskegee hospital. It is an appointment based on merit." Maj. Ward is a graduate of the Indiana University Medical School and has had post-graduate work at Long Island College and at Pointee Laboratory and has attended the Negro clinics. He is a member of the Marion County Medical Society and has conducted here for many years the Ward Sanitarium. Dr. Ward attained the rank of major in the Medical Corps of the United States army during the World War. He saw service in the Argonne. He is active in his church and the Y. M. C. A. of Indianapolis. The major will leave for his work within a few days. He will visit every large hospital for disabled soldiers throughout the country, as is said to be ordered by government officials. Cheyenne, Wyo.

Million and More For Negro Schools Atlanta Completing Big Building Program— $1,200,000 Involved Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 12.—What is believed to be the most elaborate and expensive colored public school building program ever undertaken by any community is now nearing completion in this city. It embraces four magnificent new grammar schools, seating 800 to 1,000 each, and a high school seating 1,500, the five erected at a cost to date of $1,200,000, with more yet to be spent on finishing touches. These new schools are part of a general school building program involving a total of $3,800,000 and are in every sense equal to the best the city is erecting, representing the last work in construction and equipment. In addition to all the usual modern facilities, each is provided also with medical and dental clinics, where the pupils have the services of physician, dentist and nurse. The high school, which is named for Booker T. Washington, will carry the regular academic curriculum and in addition will provide training in wood work, carpentry, drawing, auto mechanics, sheet metal, plaster and cement work, tailoring, pressing, sewing, cooking, child care and teacher training. The purpose is to give to the pupils an all-round training for life and fit them for useful and remunerative employment immediately on graduation. A director of vocational guidance helps further to this end by personal conferences, lectures, bulletins and lantern slides. The colored schools are sharing fully in the efforts of the administration to bring the city's public school system up to the highest standard of efficiency. Back of this building program is an interesting story of inter-racial co-operation, Atlanta having greatly outgrown its school system, several unsuccessful efforts were made to vote a bond issue for new buildings. It was found that the colored voters held the balance of power and had thrown it against the plan. City officials asked white members of the local inter-racial committee why this was so. The latter arranged a conference with leading colored citizens and the question was passed to them. They promptly repiled: "Why should we vote taxes on ourselves when we have no assurance that we will get any of the benefits." The rest was easy. An agreement was readily reached that if they would help carry the next bond election, their schools should have approximately one-third of the proceeds. That agreement is now being carried out. Wm.

COMPLICATED BY THE BONUS By EDWARD B. CLARK CRE amas! eee ae et cee Nemes pret aa cnr tt Saray mail on his desk the other morning, said: “If there is any taxpayer ir the United States who has not written in behalf of a reduction of taxes, I would like to know his name. He deserves the Congressional Medal of Honor.” Secretary Mellon’s tax reduction plan cannot become a party issue un- less one or the other of the two great political organizations forces it to take on issue form. There are Democrats and Republicans who take exception to some of fhe suggestions made in Mr. Mellon's proposal, but they take oo exception at all to the suggestfon that taxes shall be cut. + In congress, however, while the thing Is not strongly a party Issue, there ts ® row on over the subject. The sec- retary of the treasury sald specifically in a communication written some time ago that the country could not pay a bonus and at the same time reduce taxes. In a second communication Mr. Mellon outlined his plan for tax reduc- tion and said in effect that if it were Incorporated into a law, the wage earners of the country, which of course includes salaried men, would have their income taxes cut 44 per cent. T™masmuch as the men who for serv- Ices rendered get pay checks once a ‘week, or once a month, are numbered by the millions, it readily can be un- derstood how Joyfully this message of Secretary Mellon's was received throughout the land, If the letters and the telegrams received at the White House, at the Treasury depart- ment, and at the capitol form a basis of judgment, it can be said that the salaried people are unanimous in be- half of the Mellon plan. Some Say Both Are Possible. ‘Now there are a lot of things stand- Ing in the way of the success of the Mellon plan in congress. Just at this writing the adjusted compensation bill and the tax reduction bill are strug- gling for precedence. There are sena- tors and representatives who say that the bonus can be granted and tax re- duction secured along with it, but there are others who say that the thing “can't be did.” However, con- gress apparently is going to try to do the two things. Once again a sales tax has been proposed as a means of taking care of the payment to the veterans In case the house and senate shall pass the measure over the presidential veto. Senator Smoot of Utah is one of the chief champions of the sales tax, If such a tax shall be authorized it is said that it will add about one-eighth of one per cent to the cost of ordinary purchases in the stores, “a tax 80 small that nobody will feel it.” ‘The opponents of the sales tax, how- ever, say that while one-eighth of one per cent means nothing to a man or woman when a small purchase is made, it will mean a let to them when they come to add up the amounts of their purchases at the end of a year. In other words, the opponents of the siles tax say It is a sort of camou- flage“tax and that it will get in its work just the same even if during the days of passing purchases it is not noticed. Veto by Coolidge Is Certain. ‘There is no evidence that the Presl- dent intends In any way to recede from the position which he has taken on the bonus and which he outlined in his speech to congress. Therefore, it is just as certain today that a veto will come as It was on another day, and it also is just as certain that con- gress will pass a bonus bill and give the President a chance to enter his forbidding objection. It still {s unsafe to prophesy defi- nitely what will happen in the senate when the bonus measure comes back to it from the White House with the disapproval mark on It, Senator Smoot the other day sald there were enough votes in the senate’to pass the measure over the presidential veto. There are other senators, however, who think to the contrary. ‘The hope of the persons who are op- posed to the enactment of an adjusted compensation law is that, when the tax reduction bill is outlined definitely and it becomes apparent that the taxes cannot be cut in accordance with the measure unless the bonus Is defeated, senatorial sentiment will shift and that the President's veto will be al- lowed to stand. A member of congress the other day paraphrased an old rhyme thus: “Taxation is vexation and the bonus 1s as bad.” This seems to sum up the situation so far as congress is concerned. VIir- tually every member in the house and most of the members In the senate de- sire to pass the bonus bill and desire ‘at the same time that there shall be tax reduction. They find themselves etehine todav that adiusted compen- stands thoroughly the Ins and outs of the statutes, About the only thing that seemingly Is known definitely by the friends of the candidates of both purties is that it Is necessary before New Year's day to make official declaration of thelr intentions to the authorities of the stite, One of the somewhat amusing features of the case is that some of the mem who do not understand the South Dakota law in its entirety ore lawyers who haye made a study of It for some years. ‘Things “are not quite as cloudy as they were four years ago in the pri- mary laws of South Dakota, If they Were, then President Coolidge and Senator Johnson would be compelled to go there in person, or by proxy, to debate some proposed subject before the voters assembled In a sort of a state meeting at Pierre. Four years ago Gen, Leonard Wood was compelled to make a winter trip to Plerre, S. D., to debate with Sen- ator Poindexter, who was a minority candidate for the presidential nomina- tion and who, through some curious construction of the law was allowed as memory has it, to appear not only as his own champion, but as that of Frank O. Lowden and of Hiram W. Johnson, Senator Norbeck of South Dakota tells me that the provision of the law which requires the presiden- tial candidates to debate some ques- tion or other before the voters has been repealed. Why This Primary Is Important. ‘The primary in South Dakota has a significance far beyond that which comes to it from the number of dele- gates which the state sends to the na- tional convention. It 1s the first state to hold a presidential primary and therefore the victor in the case gets the prestige which comes from a first success; Every effort, therefore, will be made by the friends of the Presk dent and by the friends of Senator Johnson to make good in South Da- kota, Four years ago General Wood clinched his primary victory in South Dakota by the impression which he made at the debate at Pierre, The meeting at the state capital was a picturesque affair und it had a rather dramatié ending. Your correspondent was present at the debating contest between Wood and Poindexter. The latter is a trained parliamentarian and debater. General Wood ‘knew nothing about parliamentary nor debating tactics, but he won the day, or rather the evening, through a curious misunder- standing on the part of Senator Poin- dexter of the temper and the tempera- ment of the audience. The time was divided between the two contestants. One led off and talked for fifteen minutes and the oth- er responded for a like time, Then there werg two ten-minute allotments to give and take and then each had five minutes to ‘sum up.” Wood's Defeat or Polnaexter. The trend of Senator Poindexter's address was against anything looking like American participation in Euro- pean affairs, General Wood was for a League of Nations with the reserva- tions which at that time had been put forward by certain senate leaders, The senator made the error of intimating that America ought to keep out of Europe in every way and what he sald sounded as if he was asking the peo- ple of South Dakota if they wanted their money to go to feed people over on the other side of the water. Just at that time there was suffer- Ing among the women and children in the Fur East. When the senator had said his say General Wood went to the platform front and addressing the audience said: “If the people of South Dakota are willing to see women and children starve to death when it is within the means of America to save them, I de not want their votes in the presiden. tial primary.” Then, so to speak, the roof went off, The sentiment of the audience seemingly was for Wood.

So far as known all on board the L-24, numbering forty-three, perished. Detalls are somewhat meager, but it seems that the Atlantic fleet was leaving Weymouth in yarious groups, including several submarines, for the spring cruise, when the Resolutton, belonging to the Royal Sovereign class rammed the L-24, which was a mine- laying vessel, and had fourteen ive mines aboard. The accident occurred In a fog, when the vessels had opened out in the channel. Another report says that the colll- sion occurred when a combined attack on the fleet was being carried by sub- marines from Portland, Portsmouth and Plymouth. The L-24 sank imme- diately, and although salvage vessels hurried to the spit and the whole area was searched by the mine-sweeping flotilla, no trace of the illfated vessel was found. After the disaster the Resolution re- turned to Portland harbor, where she will be examined by divers at day- break. ‘This was not the only accident, for the submarines K-2 and K-12 also col- Hded near the same place, both be- ing slightly damaged. The admiralty has issued a list of the names of those aboard the L-24, which, unfortunately, carried a much larger crew than customary, many ex- tra men being aboard for training purposes. The king has telegraphed a message of condolence and sym- pathy for the relatives of the crew. Weymouth, England.—The collision which sent the submarine 1-24 to the bottom occurred on the departure of the Atlantic fleet from Portland, while the fleet was maneuvering in the channel. All available salvage vessels were sent to the spot. It was sald here that the crew of the L-24 probably exceeded thirty in number, because there were special men on board for training. A similar tragedy occurred on the departure of the fleet from Weymouth three years ago, when tlp submarine K-35 was teat i Poincare Re-elected Paris —No party ean boast of a yie- tory in the senatorial election, the complexion of the Senate virtually be- Ing unchanged.

Smith of South Carolina, was elect- ed by the Senute as chairman of its Interstate Commerce Committee, one of the ranking egmmittees of the new Republican Congress. Four insurgent Republicans and the two Farmer-Lubor senators threw their support to Smith, thus not only break- Ing a deadlock which has existed since Dec 10, but also giving the country convincing manifestation that — thelr control of the balance of power in the Senate is as complete as is that of the Republican insurgents in the House. On the thirty-second and final bal- lot of the deadiock, Albert B Cum- mins of Iowa, who had the indorse- ment of the Republican organization for re-election, received only twenty- nine votes, as against thirty-nine for Smith and six for Senator Couzens, Republican, Michigan, who had been the third choice of the insurgents. Smith received only one vote more than the necessary majority of the Seventy-four senators voting. With the deadlock broken, organiza- tion of the Sixty-eighth Congress is complete except for an expected fight over the office of senator president pro tem, With the Towa senator deposed from the chairmanship of the committee which handles railroad legislation, the Insurgents haye indicated they would support him for re-election as_presi- dent pro tem, but there haye been rumblings of some opposition from the Republican organization, Whether Senator Cummins remains as a member of the Interstate Com- merce Committee, which handles rail- road legislation, was questioned in the Senate by some of the insurgents. Republican organization leaders hold, however, that he is a member despite his defeat for the chairman- ship. On the ballot which elected Senator Smith, one Democrat, Bruce of Mary- land, yoted for Senator Cummins as he had done since early in the dead- lock when the insurgents threw their strength to the Souch Carolina sen- ator. Republicans voting for Smith were: Brookhart, Iowa; Frazier and Ladd, North Dakota, and La Follette, Wis- consin; Senator Norris, Nebraska, an- otlier of the insurgent bloc, continued to vote for Couzens, as did Senator Gooding, Idaho; Capper, Kansas; Howell, Jones, Washington, and Nor- beck, South Dakota.

Ee This has been the question of centuries. There are now in the world 700 distinct religious denominations, Can they be confederated in one body for service and ministry? This is the paramount question that is puzzeling religious leaders today. That there is a closer fellowship now than Tormerly no one can doubt, We all know the time when Baptist would not tolearte a Methodist in their pulpit and viea versa, but that day is past, never to return we hope. Two great organizations within the church and two without it are object lessons of how such a unity can and may be affected. First The Christian Endeavor Society where young people from sev- eral denominations unite for organized effort and second, The County, State, National and International Sunday School conyentions show how such an effort could be brought about without friction. The organizations without the church are the Y. M. C. A. and Woman's Christian Temperance Union, both of these are a combination of church efforts outside of all denominational lines, not for the study of doctrines which cannot be harmonized but on the plane of wide and practi- cal sympathy as outlined on the Jericho road when the good Samaritan heeded the call—not of one of his own nationality or creed but of stricken humanity. Such a federation would be one of the best means also of breaking down race prejudice as well as creed or doctrinal prejudice, and hasten forward the grand doctrine of ‘Che Brotherhood of Man.” Besides eliminating small churches with incompetent preachers and poor salaries, SIGNING THE PLEDGE BORGIA is being heard from again. This is nothing new for Georgia G is forever getting in the limelight and in this instance, as on former outbreaks the calcium glow reveals strange things and shows the monster cracker state to be a pigmy alongside the real sovereign states of the union. Long looked upon and recognized as the premier com- monwealth for mob violence and lynchings, the confessed birth place of Present day Ku Kluxism and its trail of blood, Georgia now steps for- ward as the proven breeding ground for political clowns and hypocrites. We have often wished that Georgia could keep its public circus per- formers and buffoons as securely within her own borders as she does her crime record, To the humiliation of the nation, no matter how exulting it may be to the state, some of her native sons get in the halls of Congress, though it has never been demonstrated that they possess even mediocre caliber for such a high and mighy place. A few: days ago one of the Georgian members of the National House of Representatives embraced a means of attracting public attention that may prove very embarrassing if followed to its logical end. He signed a pledge and in doing so subscribed as follows: “Whereas, good government demands obedience to law, I will stand for enforcement of all laws, including the prohibition of the liquor traffic. I here now in the presence of Almighty God and my colleagues, sign this pledge.” . Yes, good government unquestionably demands obedience to the law and he is the more fit to stand within the great halls of the national Congress who will stand for the enforcement of al! laws. Representative Upshaw admittedly pulled a great boner on himself when he signed that pledge in the presence of “Almighty God,” however well it may have set with his colleagues. With law enforcement .in Georgia strictly adhered to, there would doubtless be a far different political brand placed upon its congressional representatives. We have amplo reasons to opine that Mr. Upshaw himself would not be there. Strict law enforcement in Georgia would confront her statesmen with the awkward provisions of the Fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States that “no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws,.”” Perhaps Mr. Upshaw had no knowledge of such a’ provision contained in the constitution when he stood in the presence of the Almighty and signed that pledge. Georgia's illiteracy record is so appalling as to readily justify any claim of ignorance of the law he might make. . Surely he could not have known that a strict enforcement of all laws would demand that “the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude.” Accept this doctrine as one of the demands of good government to which obedience should be made and the political complexion of the Georgia delegation in Congress would be vastly different. ‘ Of course, the pseudo statesman knew he was taking no chances by making a Solemn oath im the presence of his colleagues for they are in the same boat with him, and the state of Georgia has pursued its crim- inal tendency so long without any visible evidences of providential dis- approval that he no doubt felt a certain security even though playing fast and loose with the Almighty. ‘The eighteenth amendment to the constitution Is furnishing some il- Juminating evidences of hypocrisy these days, but the stunt of signing the pledge by the genleman from Georgia takes the blue ribbon. Every American citizen knows that a solid Democratic delegation represents the odoriferous cracker state today and all the time, not because of law en- forcement, but solely and alone because of law nullification. 1 COOLIDGE SENTIMENT STRONG IN COLORADO, C. W. WATER- MAN FINDS Plans for Lincoln Banquet on Feb. 12 to Be Completed This Week Denver, Jan. 7—Proof that the peo- ple of Colorado are alive to the oc- complishments of the Republican na- tional administration is coming daily to Charles W. Waterman, manager ‘of the Coolidge campaign in Colorado. Mr, Waterman, who returned from a conference at Washington two weeks ago, has been keeping in touch, in per- son and by letter, with party leaders in all parts of the state. “The President's candidacy ts gain- Ing the support of all the leading Re- publicans throughout the state,” Mr. Waterman said today. “I haye received many hundreds of letters from Republicans scattered through nearly all the counties and I have yet to recetve one letter express: ing any opposition to the Coolidge candidaey, “From aM the information I have received the conclusion is inevitable that the Colorado delegation to the national convention will be solid for Coolidge.” 5 and 10 Cent Store in Hands of Receiver Friends Are Shocked by the Failure New York, Dee. 21.—The newest thing under the sun Is that Douglas Fairbanks, white, the movie actor, has picked what he believes to be a col- ored heavyweight champion fighter, and after paying for two years’ train- Ing, is bringing him East to look for bouts. ~ Doug's protege is Sammy Baker. who weighs 280 pounds in training, Is 20 years old, six feet four Inches tall, ‘and has an elghty-four-inch reach. Baker has been kept under cover for ‘eighteen months, Undergoing — speetil training and grooming for a professton- al ring career—all at the expense of the great film star, who believes he has 4 champion of champions under his wing. ‘The discovery of Baker makes a dramatic story. He blew Into film-land from Oklahoma and was lucky enough to Lind at a time when colored actors were In demand to play parts In the “Thief of Bagdad.” Baker was select- ed at once by the casting director ro play the part of an African chief. Fairbanks saw him and was so sm- pressed by the man’s gigantic size, his grace of movement and his youth that he turned him over to a professional ‘boxing instructor for an opinion as to his natural ability. Has Shown Real Punch ‘The report was good, and the actor decided to finance his education as a fighter, For nearly two years Baker has been working with the greatest en- thusiasm and in the past three months in eight private tryouts against pro- fessional heavyweights, Buker is sald to have wone five of the goes with first round knockouts and three with knock- outs in the second round. Critical observers of ring affairs have looked Baker over and believe that he shows a lot more than did Harry Wills when the brown panther was making a reputation out on the west coast. His education has been completed, and the chances are that he will shortly come East to show his wares to the fans, Newest “Black Hope” Weighs 230 Pounds New York, Jan. 4.—On Friday, Dee. 28, the A. I. Hart & Co, 5, 10 and 25- cent store, the largest store of its kind in Harlem, was taken over by recelv- ers on un involuntary plea of bank- ruptey. This marked the passing of another great enterprise undertaken by members of the race on a co-opera- tive basis. It was founded a year ago when Mr. Hart, the manager, succeed- ed in getting enough capital through a syndicate method to float the business and form a corpovation, According to information given out by the manager onthe day that pro- ceedings were started against the firm, the store has fought a losing battle due to indifference of those upon whom it depended and for many days had been losing upwards of $40 daily. Every ef- fort was made by those in charge to stem the crash, but it was impossible to hold out against the great overhead. At the time that deputies were tak- ing charge of the property members of the stockholders were holding a spectal meeting in Montserrat hall, 207 West 187th street. Mr. Hart, who did not ar- rive until a late hour, apologized for his tardiness by explaining that the store had been seized Just as he was about to close for the day and he had been detained making a report to the receivers. He then went on to explain ‘that he had done everything in his | power to make the business successfal, but that conditions were against him. At the close of his talk the stockhold- erst adopted a resolution to the effeet that they did not hold their manager at fault for the state of affairs and that they were planning a banquet in his honor for the very, near future. ‘They also went so far a#to assure Mr Hart that they stood ready to back him in another similar project if he cared to undertake one. When all reports were made and al outstanding debts were checked up Mr. Hart assured the men that he be- lieved it possible that they would re ceive at least a part of their mone} back. At the close of the meeting many of the stockholders hastened te assure their president personally ot their confidence in his integrity an¢ honesty. Front room for rent, upstairs.

Gross read a series of “Special Words,” ending with a quotation from the address of President Coolidge in his eulogy of the late President Harding, Commander Franklin of the Wallace Simpson Post, in five-minute talk full of fire and en- thusiasm, told why we had gathered there. After this Miss Nelsine How- ard read Abraham Lincoln's Emanei- pation Proclamation. It was admitted by all that they had never heard it more effectively read. As she read the words of the Prac- lamation declaring that the slaves “are henceforth and forever free,” the audi- ence brought forth a loud and long ap- plause, ‘The anniversary address by Dr. Westbrook was a masterpiece, thrilling the audieneme by Its elo- quence and its masterly array of facts.

Mrs, Mande Harris of 2326 Hum- boldt street received the sad intelli- gence early Tuesday morning that her son, Booker Harris, who had been at- tending school at Raleigh, N. ©. had passed away in that city after a brief illness resulting from a stroke of paralysis. Booker was a remark- able bright young man and had en- tered the Episcopal school at St. Au- gustine with a view to a professional career, For a number of years he has served as one of the altar boys of the Church of the Redeemer.

Campbell to represent their interest .in the estate as against the claims of Lottie Dun- els, nee Williams, who claimed to be the common law wife of John S. Wil- Hams, deceased, and the legal heir to his life insurance and the house and lot owned by Williams. Letters of ad- ministration were granted in the es- tate of Leroy F.

It would appear from three or four cases we have had here, and from testimony in this particular case, that the practice is more gen- erat than supposed. “This ought not to be.

THE NATIONAL WESTERN STOCK SHOW FOR 1924 To Be Held in Denver, Jan. 19 to 26; Eighteenth Annual Event Heralded ‘as Great Western Exposition The eighteenth annual National Western Stock Show, Denver's great mid-winter classie, which is to be held in the stadium of the Denver stock- yards from Jun. 19th to the 26th, gives promise of excelling in many features the list of brilliant shows of the past. Judging from entries and inquiries ‘received by Hurry L, Youngerman, general manager of the show, interest is unusually high and Indications are ‘that the largest crowds in history will gather to pass judgment on the aristo- crats of the domestic animal kingdom. It is given out from the office of the general manager that entries ‘in almost every department of the live stock game are much larger thus early than thoge of a year ago. Breeders of live stock from twenty-two states will com- pete In the great show this year. Dairy cattle from Wisconsin, known as the leading milk producing state of the Union, have been entered, as have also the H. O. Harrison herd of Aber- deen-Angus cattle that were winners at the 1923 International Live Stock Ex- position of Chicago. Visitors to the National Western Stock Show are always thrilled by the series of brilliant equine events staged by the National Western Horse Show: which is held annually with the Stock Show, and is looked to as a great so- ciety gathering. In addition to the string of noted thoroughbreds owned by Loula Long Combs of Kansas City, without which no horse show in Amer- ica could be regarded a success, repre- sentatives from famous California and Chicago stables will be competitors for honors during the six-night horse shows starting Monday night, Jan. 21. The railroads entering Denver have announced a special rate of fare-and- one-third for the round trip. Denver and Colorado take a just pride in this annual show for it brings visitors from many of the western states who learn from first hand of our ability to. con- duct one of the most successful stock and horse shows in America.

Practical Working Communism in the United States Within a Few Years By W. R. BASSETT, in New York Herald. RACTICAL working Communism will exist in the United States within a very few years. In fact we have since 1890 covered more of the distance than still remains to go. This has not only been accomplished without revolution, but it has come so grad- ually that only a few have realize@that the evolution has been going on. By practical working Communism, I mean a state in which the fundamental desires of Communists will be realized, without the fan- tastic trimmings which the various lunatic fringes consider essential. There will be no Soviets, no dictatorship of the proletariat or of other social or economic class, no violent redistribution of property, no taking from the rich to give to the poor. But neither will there be abject poverty side by side with superfluous abundance. We shall still operate under the capitalistic system, for that is the only system which correctly rewards and therefore stimulates ability, initiative and production. Scraping away the fungus growths of ideas that have grown around Communism we find that underneath is the entirely sound and healthy belief that all men are entitled to a large supply of necessary and luxury goods, and to a proper amount of leisure in which to enjoy those goods. That is the real purpose of Communism. While the numerous more or less the oretical advocates of this result are quibbling and squabbling over what means to employ, capitalism, urged somewhat by public opinion and aided by those who are experts in production and distribution, is achieving the desired condition in a practical way. Our farsighted industrialists not only watch public opinion and study the trends of thought’among workmen—they often anticipate demands and meet them before they are made. The strikes that occur for higher wages, shorter hours or better conditions, appear to be more common than they are. Actually most of the concessions that workers have attained have come without strikes. ‘They have come by mutual agreement. ‘The welfare of workmen as exemplified in safety, in housing and in health safeguards have been voluntary acts of the employers. The lower production costs and the general trend over a hundred years toward lower costs of production and prices have been the result of a scientific striving for greater profits. ‘There is no repression in this country, no undue use of the police to put down protests, nor is there ignorance of what the workers want. So long as that attitude exists, no revolution can occur. Earthworms Have a Memory and May Be Trained to Learn “Safety First’ By PROF. L. HECK, in Daily Science News Bulletin. Earthworms were introduced into a passage shaped I'ke a capital T and carved from a block of wood which was covered with a glass plate so that the movements of the little creatures might be observed. When they came to the junction about half of them turned one way and half the other. ‘Then it was arranged so that those that took the left-hand passage received a mild, but presumably disagreeable electri shock. At first the worms did not know just what to make of all this, but after they. had all been through the experience about 200 times, they nearly all were con- verted to “safety first” and took the righthand turn. When the electrodes were then moved to the right-hand passage they learned to shift to the other after only 65 passages, evidently showing snore aptitude. In the human sense, earthworms have no brains; their nervous systems consist of a series of little ganglions, or nerve centers, on the underside of the worms and connected with each other by nérve fibers. If the worms were cut in two, the fragments still showed the ability to dis- tinguish between the safe and the unpleasant road to travel, showing that the earthworm remembers in every one of his ganglions, and is able to learn and profit by experience. “IT Dislike Very Much the Sex-Conscious Bloe That Alice Paul—” By MRS, J. BORDEN HARRIMAN, in “From Pinafores to Politics.” Women are still separate, not only biologically, which doesn’t count for so much in polities, but economically. They are the vast body of houseworkers, sometimes sweated and sometimes petted. The American wife is supposed to be a member of the great leisure class, and I suppose it is true that more American wives have more time to waste or to pursue culture than any other people in the world. I dislike very much the sex-conscious bloc that Alice Paul and her party have organized. I do not think they can ever be powerful enough on their own to accomplish anything, and I do think they stir up so much antagonism in the men that it is very difficult for the rest of us to peace- fully negotiate the things we want. A good many women whose opinion I value enormously, among them Ruth McCormick, thought at the beginning that the League of Women Voters was an unwise precedent, perhaps encouraging women to organize on sex rather than along the old party lines. I, on the contrary, feel that Mrs, Maud Wood Park has done a great work by giving women a prepara- tory school in which to learn technique for making themselyes felt when they join the parties, ‘The league has an immense value as a nonpartisan organization, or as some people call it, “all-partisan.” Sale of a Hundred Acres of Corn to Equal Income of New York Bricklayer By R. L. HOLMAN, in North American Review. It would take all the yearly income from a 200-acre wheat farm, taking average acre production and present quotations on wheat as a basis, to equal the annual income of a plumber in New York city, allowing him only 250 workdays and 115 days of idle time between jobs. On this basis of computation it would take the proceeds from the sale of a hundred acres of corn to equal the annual income of a New York bricklayer. A farmer who derived his income from growing oats would have to sell the aninual product from a 300-acre farm before he could get enough money in hand to equal the income of a paperhanger in one of our larger cities.

On the mainlend east of the town of Naples was Pompeli, and the Roman fleet stood by in the bay while Vesuvius was in {ts fatal eruptfon. ‘The sirens who unsuccessfully wooed the wanderer Ulysses, are sald to have had their home in the neighbor- hood. ‘The Spaniards, who recently were there as guests, for more than two hundred years remained there as mas- ters. For from 1522 until the treaty ‘of Utrecht In 1713 Naples belonged to ‘Spain, and for a much longer time the Kingdom of the two Sicil{es, which stretched from the {sland across the Straits of Messina up to Naples, had ‘a Spanish ruler, ‘Then, and, indeed, throughout her history, until Garibaldi and The Thou- sand brought the south Into the newly united Italy, Naples had about the worst government and the loveliest site in Europe. Constantinople alone could challenge her simultaneously on these two records, Mr. Gladstone's thunderous indignation at what he heard about the political prisoners of Naples is still remembered for the tre- mor it sent through the England of the early fifties. Now such iniquities are as dead as the “scotched princes and fangless kings” whom Swinburne, in the full spate of his enthusiasmgfor the risor- gimenta, consigned eestatically to hades, But Naples remains still very dis- tinct from the northern and central cit- les of Italy. The largest,and most con- gested city in the kingdom, it has a certain air of being foreign about It. It belongs to the Mediterranean rather than to Italy.—Manchester Guardian. Huge Waves. at Sea. Waves of extraordinary height, mis- called “tidal waves,” are sometimes encountered at sea or along the coasts. ‘They are due either to earthquakes under the sea or to a combination of several ordinary waves, which If a heavy sea be running, {s sufficient to account for a wave of unusual height. Such a one was recently encountered by the British steamship Maine, near the southern edge of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland. ‘The wind was ris- ing after a hard blow and an ugly swell about twenty-five feet high was running. Then a huge wave was seen towering above the other seas, a mile away, and rushing toward the ship. It swept the vessel from end to end, and was estimated by the officers to have been from fifty to sixty feet In height. Bivorse (Mure ins@avpts Divorce is listed among the rarest things in Egypt.

(Prepared by the United States Department ot Agriculture) For the first time in the history of the United States Department of Agri- culture a woman, Dr. Louise Stanley, has been recently made chief of a bu- reau—the newly creuted bureau of home economics, The desirability of appointing a woman to this position yal be appreciated when it Is under- od that the work of the Department Agriculture is intended to serve the .eeds of the whole farm family In ag: ‘riculture and home economics. While many of Its bureaus give their atten- tion to matters which chiefly concern the farmer, such as crops, live stock, soll .conditions, Insect pests, or general (Fite ie Say aN Pa eS Ss \ ee | Soe 7 Oe Ee co Ha Boil wy es = 7 oh Dr. Louise Stanley, Chief of Bureau of Home Economics. farm management, It is part of the function of the department work as laid down by law, also to help the womn- an on the farm, In many rural homes it has been found that the life of the mother is 1 continual round of drudgery, ‘This Is sometimes due to failure to understand the best ways of doing housework to Save labor and strength. Frequently it is due to lack of conveniences. The bureau of home economics wants all women to be Informed of the best and “most modern practice in regard to everything connected with home-mak- ing. This does not necessarily mean urging people to buy expensive new equipment. It Is possible to make housework so interesting and so dignt- fied that it 1s a satisfaction, instead of drudgery, to do It. The bureau of home economics belfeves that It takes brains to manage a home to the best brush on the floor most of the time in stead of flirting it through the alr. The dust cloth should be held in a fairly compact mass, so that the surface to be cleaned is wiped or polished and at the same time the dust is held by the cloth.» While the dust ts settling, re- move spots from the woodwork and wash windows If necessary. ‘The covers may then be taken from pictures and furniture. They should be shaken out of doors if possible. Then the room and furniture should be dusted thoroughly, beginning at the top of the room and working down. Use of Vacuum Cleaner. When a room is cleaned with a vacuum cleaner, the order of proceed- ing is different. The room is first dusted, then the vacuum cleaner Is used on upholstery, hangings, walls. and carpets or rugs, and finally the floor is dusted, By this method of cleaning fewer articles need to be moved, no dust {s scattered, and more dirt is actually removed. A vacuum cleaner, therefore, saves time and labor. advantage of the whole family, and that what a mother does should be ree- ognized and appreciated. At the same time, with more information as to what other housekeepers and _ scientific workers have found out about good household “management, the proper feeding of the family, the hest utensils ‘and equipment to buy or. the most durable materials for clothing, every mother can render better service to her family with less effort on her own part. ‘To supply Information on all such questions and to make investiga tions which will lead to continued itn- provement in household methods, the new bureau of home economics was es- tablished. Printed leaflets, known as “Farmers’ Bulletins” and dealing with a great many topies of Interest to housekeep- ers, may be had free upon application to the United States Department of Agriculture, Those on food subjects contain good recipes which have been thoroughly tested. For the present year the new bureav of home economics will continue work already begun in nutrition, food prep aration and other household problems After next July selentific studies wil! be made to learn how the family In come should be spent, what woman's work in the home Is actually worth if wages were paid, how to select cloth: ing and dress materials to best advan tage. how to choose the most nourish ing foods, how much housing ought to cost, the best kind of equipment to buy. such as furnaces, hot water heaters, stoves, refrigerators, the best plan for a kitchen, As these studies are com pleted information relating to them Will be circulated in the newspapers and magazines and in the form of farmers’ bulletins, COCK RABBITS LIKE CHICKEN Those Raised Especially for Marker Are Apt to Be More Tender Than Wild Ones. Rabbits may be served in any way chicken Is liked—fried, fricasseed. smothered, baked, in a casserole, in pie, eroquettes, or hash, While wild rub- hits are often relished, those especially raised for the market are apt to be more tender and will cook in less time The bureau of home economies,’ United States Department of Agriculture, rec: ommends the following way of prepar- ing an excellent casserole of rabbit: Clean and disjoint the rabbit into as many pieces as desired, Sprinkle with salt and pepper and dredge with flour.

When the rabbit is done, put the pleces in a cas: serole and pour over them a gravy made from four tablespoonfuls of the fat in which It was fried, blended with four tablespoonfuls of flour and four cupfuls of stock or boiling water, seasoned well with salt, pepper and worcestershire sauce, If the casserole is prepared early in the day It may be reheated in the oven for dinner.

They are much aided and encouraged by the shops which are staging their annual "white sales" and the holidays brought out all that is new and beautiful in underwear, so that every one has had an opportunity to review the mode and approve—or disapprove—styles. Naturally at holiday time silk underwear is emphasized for gifts. The displays leave no doubt in the mind that silk is becoming more and more popular in the crepe de chine and radium weaves as an underwear fabric. It has, besides its beauty, great durability to recommend it and is the easiest of fabrics to launder. The G 1 colors liked are pink, peach, flesh, orchid, nile and turquoise. Artificial silk is used for undersiips. There is a growing demand for band sewing on undergarments. This and the dainty and colorful fabrics used make work on them more of a pastime than a task. In silk the choice lies mainly between crepe de chine and radium, but one may choose wash satin or Japanese silk. White and colored linen lawns with fine "handkerchief" embroideries are very elegant and the linen is durable enough to justify the fine embroidery. In cotton materials there are batiste, striped and checked dimity, volle and novelty crepes to choose among—all dyed in the same colors as silk or linen.

Some of the high shades in silk have appeared trimmed with narrow black lace, but black has never made much of an appeal to American women for use in undergarments. The rules and by-laws as issued by her imperial highness, Dame Fashion, declare that fur and furlike appearance be the smart note throughout midwinter vogue. Creators of --- knitted outerwear ever alert to the knock of opportunity at the door, in accepting the challenge, proceeded to set their machines to the pace of a new stitch which should produce a knitted fur, so to speak. The result? Knitted boucle, a shaggy loop effect which simulates fine astrakhan, and the popular caracul is also successfully imitated. The boucle jacquette as shown in this picture is undoubtedly one of the knitted triumphs of the season. The original of this model was knit of buff wool, just the color of belge caracul, and it looks furlike. Note that the sleeves are of plain brushed wool, camel colored to match the knitted braid finishings. This idea of differ G ing the body of the jacquette from the sleeves is characteristic of the very latest models. It seems proper that the ensemble be completed with boucle cuffs and a collar of distinguished style. In regard to knitted boucle, it is proving one of the most popular items in the knitted outerwear field. As a trimming feature it excels, competing in appearance with handsome fur. It is well to keep in touch with the new knitted modes. They are crowding in thick and fast, for rumor has it that we are at the threshold of an unprecedented vogue for all things knitted. Those who have been privileged to glimpse the advance models were enthusiastic over the series of knitted sensations in store for us, hinting at such entrancing ideas as all-over wool embroidered knitted dresses, mandarin A coats having one or two buttons down the front, bell sleeves and other smart details. There are charming capes knitted in brushed wool plaided effects and knitted hats are assuming the role of cleverly designed millinery. Julia Bottomley (©, 1924, Western Newspaper Union.)
