N.A.A.C.P. CONFERENCE ASKS LABOR UNIONS TO GIVE NEGRO WORKERS SQUARE DEAL
Philadelphia Conference
PHILADELPHIA, July 2—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Fifteenth Annual Conference, has unanimously adopted a letter to the American Federation of Labor asking that labor unions cease discriminating against Negro workers.
The text of the letter is as follows:
For many years the American Negro has been demanding admittance to the ranks of union labor.
For many years your organizations have made public profession of your interest in Negro labor, of your desire to have it unionized, and of your hatred of the black "scab."
Notwithstanding this apparent surface agreement, Negro labor in the main is outside the ranks of organized labor, and the reason is first, that white union labor does not want black labor and secondly, black labor has ceased to beg admittance to union ranks because of its increasing value and efficiency outside the unions.
We thus face a crisis in inter-racial labor conditions; the continued and determined race prejudice of white labor, together with the limitation of immigration, is giving black labor tremendous advantage. The Negro is entering the ranks of semi-skilled and skilled labor and he is entering mainly and necessarily as a "scab." He broke the great steel strike. He will soon be in position to break any strike when he can gain economic advantage for himself.
On the other hand, intelligent Negroes know full well that a blow at organized labor is a blow at all labor; that black labor today profits by the blood and sweat of labor leaders in the past who have fought oppression and monopoly by organization. If there is built up in America a great black block of non-union laborers who have a right to hate unions, all laborers, black and white, eventually must suffer.
Is it not time, then, that black and white labor get together? Is it not time for white unions to stop bluffing and for black laborers to stop cutting off their noses to spite their faces?
We, therefore, propose that there be formed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the American Federation of Labor, the Railway Brotherhoods and any other bodies agreed upon, an Interracial Commission.
We propose that this commission undertake:
1. To find out the exact attitude and practice of national labor bodies and local unions toward Negroes and of Negro labor toward unions.
2. To organize systematic propaganda against racial discrimination on the basis of these facts at the great labor meetings, in local assemblies and in local unions.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People stands ready to take part in such a movement and hereby invites the co-opera-
Writes American Federation of Labor
tion of all organized labor. The Association hereby solemnly warns American laborers that unless some such step as this is taken and taken soon the position gained by organized labor in this country is threatened with irreparable loss.
The Lynching Record for the First Six Months,1924
The following statistics on lynching
for the first six months of the year
1924 have been compiled by the Department of Records and Research of
Tuskegee Institute.
Total number lynched ..... 5
Offenses charged:
Rape ..... 3
Attempted rape ..... 1
Killing officer of the law ..... 1
Record by states:
Florida ..... 2
Georgia ..... 2
South Carolina ..... 1
Comparison of records:
First 6 months of 1924..... 5
First 6 months of 1923.....15
First 6 months of 1922.....30
First 6 months of 1921.....30
It is gratifying to note that the record thus far for the year 1924 is the lowest for the first six months of any of the forty years during which the record has been kept. It is an encouraging sign of progress toward the elimination of this evil, which is condemned by public opinion. It is an indication of the growing sentiment against lawlessness in general, and in my judgment a result of the spread and influence of interracial co-operation. All of the persons lynched were Negroes.
ETHIOPIAN PRINCE IS HONOR
GUEST OF KING GEORGE
London. July 9.—Ras Taffari, the prince regent of Ethiopia, who arrived in London Monday night, was received Tuesday by King George of England with all honors due first-class royalty. King George's escort of life guards and gentlemen-at-arms was sent to escort him to the palace in one of the state coaches, where he was formally welcomed by King George. The Ethiopian prince and his suite are attracting attention everywhere they go by their picturesque dress and the dignity of their bearing. They are much interested in modern inventions, but never display any excitement. They are thoroughly modern in ideas and desire to get the best civilization for their country.
Berlin Newspapers Acclaim Roland Hayes at Opening Recital in Germany
New York, July 3.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue has receiced and today made public extracts forwarded from Germany, of accounts in the Berlin newspapers, acclaiming Roland Hayes at his opening recital in the German capital city.
The Berliner Montag Post said: "Mr. Hayes shamed his managers for without exaggeration one can say, that their sensational claims were not of a sufficiently high order. The method of Mr. Hayes is very unusual. His tenor voice has the sweetness of the great Romantic singers. His special facility for languages is remarkable. His program consisted of Schubert, Schumann, Brahms, Wolf, a Japanese song, Massenet and Negro Spirituals. This Negro singer, superior in every way in power of expression to many European singers makes his singing quite extraordinary. An artist of his race, Mr. William Lawrence, accompanied him with cultivated touch. The Negro debutant won from an overcrowded hall a most overwhelming success."
The Berliner Morgen Post: "A Negro tenor with a program embracing the loveliest numbers of Schubert, Schumann, Brahms and Wolf is a new sensation. We had it in Beethoven Hall. In the first song, Schubert's dreamy 'Du bist die Ruh,' the wonderful treatment of words and tone betrayed the great singer. All doubt as to whether it were merely technique which made the performance wonderful soon disappeared. He brought to his beautiful singing high intellectual power, an unusual timbre, and a concentration of purpose, preventing any sense of monotony."
Sigmund Pisling in Berliner Borsen-Beitung: "The public had expected a sensation and found an artist. We refer to the Negro tenor, Roland Hayes. a Negro who sings Schubert, Schumann, Brahms and Hugo Wolf in almost perfectly pronounced German is a wonder, and even more so when he can enter with understanding into the German soul. And Hayes does so. To hear him sing Schumann's 'Ich hab' im Traum gewelniet' is an example which many good singers might follow—also Schumann's 'Nussbaum' or 'Auch Kleine Dinge' by Wolf. It is quite extraordinary. In one extra number of Galluppi among many others, he revealed true grasp and understanding of Italian feeling and method."
Roland Hayes will return to America early in October and will then make a tour throughout the United States, culminating on the Pacific Coast.
Brooklyn Elks Plan $100,000 Home
Brooklyn, N. Y., July 2.—Plans for a building to cost $100,000 were presented to Brooklyn Lodge of Elks at its last meeting by the building committee of which former Grand Exalted George E. Wilbecan is chairman, and were unanimously accepted by the lodge. Plans as tentatively drawn call for the erection of a four-story white stone building on the plot now owned by Brooklyn Lodge on Fulton street, near Classon avenue. Charles Mitchel of Manhattan Lodge is the architect.
Eugene Kinckle Jones Elected to the Executive Board of the National Conference of Social Work
Eugene Kinckle Jones Elected to the Executive Board of the National Conference of Social Work
At the Fifty-first Annual Session of the National Conference of Social Work held in Toronto, Canada, June 26th to July 2nd, Eugene Kinckle Jones, Executive Secretary of the National Urban League was elected to the Executive Committee.
This was the first time in the history of that organization that the conference at large, consisting of nearly 6,000 persons—3,500 delegates present—has voted a colored person into this office as evidence of the fact that Mr. Jones was a popular choice, the audience applauded vigorously when the announcement was made by the president at the general session on Tuesday night. There were thirteen candidates for the five positions on the Executive Board that were open—Mr. Jones standing third on the list of candidates. The other persons elected to the Board were Edith Abbott, Dean of the School of Social Administration of the Chicago University; James F. Jackson, Chairman of the Section on Family Welfare of the Cleveland Council of Social Agencies; Julia C. Lathrop and Robert A. Woods, former presidents of the National Conference of Social Work.
At this conference there were some forty colored delegates. There were nineteen places on the program at which the Negro was discussed in some form and fourteen of the speakers were colored.
This recognition of the problems among Negroes and the part which Negro social workers are playing in efforts to improve the community life of the nation is considered most significant by students of inter-racial problems,—it being considered that this conference group made up of the leading and most active social workers of the United States and Canada is the most liberal and democratic of the organizations interested in human betterment. Mr. Jones who served this year on the Committee of Time and Place was elected for a term of three years.

Virginia Farmer Finds Gold
Test Shows Valuable Deposits Near Bedford, Virginia
Bedford, Va., June 30.—In the community a mile or so southeast of Thaxton there is considerable excitement over the finding of gold-bearing rocks on the farm of a colored man, Austin Holley, several weeks ago.
It is the opinion of those who have investigated the matter that there are probably rich deposits of precious metal. The presence of very fine yellow streaks in the outcropping of a soft brownish looking rock attracted Holley's attention and he and others who examined the find were so convinced that the rock contained gold that several pounds of it were sent off to be assayed, and the report of the assayer showed that it was rich in yellow metal.
Holley and others interested plan to have a mining engineer come down and make an investigation in an effort to determine the extent of the deposit and its value.

Harry Jackson Painted White by Alexandria Gang
Alexandria, Va., July 2.—Twelve men Tuesday night entered the home of Harry Jackson, tied a rope about his neck, dragged him through several streets, painted him white, covered his head with a sack and threatened to kill him.
Two alleged ringleaders, captured by the police responding to a riot call, were fined $100 and costs each in Police Court, and were sentenced to thirty days in the city jail. The men were James Gorman and William Lyons.
According to testimony, Jackson was sitting in his home, when he was warned to leave. Making no attempt to disguise, the men entered and said: "We are going to ku klux you." Jackson's 6-year-old son said threats were made to hang Jackson as he was dragged out of the house.
A cry, "Police are coming," frightened the mob away. Jackson said he was offered $3 to let the charges drop. He also said $3.50 was taken from him. Police are searching for the rest of the gang.
Levi Coppin, Senior Bishop A. M. E. Church, Dies in Philadelphia
Philadelphia, Pa., July 9.—Funeral services for Bishop Levi Jenkins Coppins, age 76, thirtieth bishop of the Arican Methodist Episcopal church, who died at his residence, 1913 Bainbridge street, on June 25, after an illness of several weeks, Tuesday drew one of the largest crowds of persons ever known to attend a funeral in this city. Ministers, lawyers, doctors, bishops, men and women from all walks of life were present at the ceremonies to pay their last tribute to him. The services were held at Bethel A. M. E. church, sixth and Pine streets, at 10 a. m.
Bishop Coppin has been in ill health since he returned from the Twenty-seventh general conference recently held in Louisville, Ky., where he became senior bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal church because of the retirement of Bishop B. F. Lee. At the conference he was the presiding officer and was placed in charge of the fourth Episcopal district. Bishop H. P. Parks of Chicago will fill the vacancy left by Bishop Coppin.
The deceased was born in Fredericktown, Md., Dec. 24, 1848, and was one of eight children of Mr. and Mrs. John Coppin. He attended school in all about five years, and the remainder of his education was secured by private study. He later attended the P. E. Divinity school of Philadelphia, from which he graduated. In 1865 he was converted and joined the A. M. E. church. In 1876 he was granted a license to preach in Wilmington, Del., joining the Philadelphia conference in 1877. He was ordained deacon in 1879 by Bishop Payne, an elder in 1880 by Bishop J. M. Brown. In 1900 he was elected bishop.
At one time the bishop was editor of the A. M. E. Review, president of the educational board and president of the church extension board. He received his honorary degree of doctor of divinity and doctor of law from Wilberforce University.
He was married to Miss Fannie M. Jackson, who was for more than 20 years principal of an institute for boys and girls of our race. She died in 1913, and in 1914 he was again married to Miss Evelyn M. Thompson, M. D.
Immediately after his death telegrams and messages of condolence poured in upon Mrs. Coppin from all parts of the country. His widow, a daughter and brother are left to mourn his death.

DENVER
Hon. J. Finley Wilson of Washington, D. C., grand exalted ruler of the Elks and editor of the Washington Eagle, came into Denver late Wednesday afternoon and surprised Mountain Lodge No. 39 by knocking for admission just at the opening of the business session.

Both houses of the Japanese diet, at the first sittings of the current session in Tokio and almost as their first business, passed resolutions strongly opposing the action of the United States in enacting, as part of its new immigration law, a clause prohibiting the entry of Japanese. The passages of the resolution in each instance followed the presentation of addresses by the premier, Viscount Taka-Akira Mato, and the foreign minister, Baron Kiuro Shidehara.
With a view toward curtailing the importation of luxuries, encouraging thrift and balancing foreign trade, the government of Japan introduced in the diet a bill providing for an ad valorem duty of 100 per cent on 250 articles listed as luxuries. Among the articles are cameras, films, phonographs and records, precious stones, liquors, wool, woolen textiles, gold, platinum, watches, other jewelry and leather goods. The effect of the proposed heavy duty on American trade with Japan would be comparatively slight, inasmuch as Japan purchases from the United States principally staple articles, such as cotton, machinery and iron, it was pointed out.

A special report to the Butte Miner from Ennis, Mont., stated that Mrs. Julia Wehrsbaum, aged 74 years, residing at 1009 Utah avenue, Butte, and Paul Jutzi of Evansville, Ind., were drowned in Meadow lake, near there, a few days ago. Charles Refner, son-in-law of Mrs. Wehrsbaum, and brother-in-law of Jutzi, and two other men were rescued through the bravery of Elwood Wilson, Butte druggist, who, alone of a score of spectators, ventured out on the stormy waters to save the occupants of three rowboats that had capsized a half mile from shore. A sudden windstorm, swooping down upon the Montana Power Company's artificial lake, near Ennis, caused the tragedy.

CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS
Denver.—Exploitation of Colorado's dormant resources has yielded another discovery which promises untold wealth and may result in the establishment of several new factories here, it was announced a few days ago. Assurance of a permit for a mill to be erected on South Bannock street, opposite Overland Park, which will cost approximately $55,000, but which, if plans mature, will be but the nucleus of a larger plant, brought out the story. H. J. Arnold, former mayor of Denver and until recently owner of the Altitude Oil Company, secured the permit. The mill will be used to refine products of a 1,600-acre grant in the Silver Cliff mining district, in Custer county, about thirty-five miles south of Canon City.

Ten White Leghorn hens, owned by the Goris brothers of Canon City, rank fourth in the United States with a joint production of 958 eggs during the six months' contest period. The egg-laying contest conducted at Canon City under the direction of the State Agricultural College at Fort Collins, is a novel innovation. Paul C. Jamieson, poultry expert, who has compiled records of international contests during the current contest year, places Colorado third for best individual pen and fourth place in high pen.
La Junta.—M. A. Tannehill, 30, of La Junta, suffered a serious injury to his back when he was struck by a motor car while he was changing a tire on his automobile on the road near Westminster. Tannehill was brought to West Thirty-ninth avenue and Federal boulevard, Denver, by his wife, where he was met by the police ambulance and taken to the general hospital.
Florence.—Excitement stirred Florence when it became known that a 500-barrel oil well had been brought in by the Mutual Oil Company, drilling in virgin ground in the Florence field, three miles south of here, near Black Dog mountain. The well was brought in at a depth of 2,700 feet although it has been considered necessary in the past in the Florence field to drill to a depth of 4,000 or 5,000 feet in order to strike oil. Fifteen feet of oil are now in the Mutual well and a capacity of 500 barrels daily is estimated by experts at the field.

WITH President and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge in the loss of their beloved son, the COLORADO STATESMAN shares its fullest, as will all loyal Americans, in this hour of deep sorrow.
THE ISSUE IS PLAIN

There can be a a human questions that coilgent application of theplex problems which may interests for the promoter of economic agencies the world to the incalculi political system and philois challenging men and for co-operative action social and governmental when the test must be ma world. We must no long end with a full understorld is not so far amiss of the teachings of Jesus.
IT IS Calvin Coolidge versus John W. Davis in the 1923 presidential race. The one, a Republican, hails from the "Old Bay State" with its historical brilliancy and noble traditions; the other a Democrat, hails from West Virginia with its all too near Southern leanings and heritage. Both are men well trained in public service, and both possess high intellectuality and clean records. But the influence of environment and local coloring has played an important part in the official acts and concept of presidents in the past and it is certain to do so again. The issue therefore becomes plain at the very outset so far as the Negro vote is concerned, and if not wholly a question between the North and the South, it is sufficiently near to it to have a marked influence upon our ballot next November. We have no quarrel with Mr. Davis, the individual, for he stands high in the councils of American statesmen and diplomats. But he is from the wrong section of the country and his party strength is too pronounced south of the Mason and Dixon line to suit our fancy and we will be much mistaken if the Negro vote fails to line up with sturdy solidarity against him. It is worthy of note that the Democratic party of late years has given more than passing consideration to one so free and indefendent as was Grover Cleveland. We therefore look to the approaching campaign as affording us but two choices, Calvin Coolidge or John W. Davis. Certainly La Follette is not to be taken seriously at this time and there is nothing in either of the many radical platforms he is presumed to mount that offers us any great hope, or presents a strong appeal. The Negro vote in the North is much larger than ever before and with the issues so plainly drawn, we confidently predict a faithful alignment with the grand old party as a necessary choice, even though we cannot always glory in its treatment of our cause.
ORGANIZING THE CHRISTIAN CONSCIENCE
IT MAY be undoubtedly true, as is contended by many church papers and eminent authorities, that great and encouraging progress has been made in the last few years in the effort to so organize the Christian conscience of America that it may become a potent factor in moulding the tendencies of community, state and national life to the mutual betterment of all the peoples, but if so, evidence of it is decidedly meager as yet. In fact we cannot share a sanguine view that the "Christian Conscience of America" is a real entity, capable of being shaped and directed by a force having definite meaning or a purposeful program. However we are certain that there is a crying need for such organization and the labors of the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in this direction are to be highly commended. But just as we settle down to a degree of complacency on a subject that has caused us countless doubts, we find the Christian conscience sadly split as it has been since anti-slavery agitation between the Methodist Church North and the Methodist Church South. The simple element of color disturbs this beautiful conscience, flexible to the point of insecurity and sectional to the point of hypocrisy and criminality. We wish we could live long enough to see deeply rooted in American soil a cleanly, unsullied Christian conscience for then we would know and feel secure in the knowledge that problems and strife were reduced to a minimum. There can be and should be a sensible avenue of approach to all human questions that could be readily cleared of all obstacles by an intelligent application of the principles of justice and truth.
"The many and complex problems which mark our time; the effective organization of selfish interests for the promotion of particular group aims; the increasing power of economic agencies seeking purely material ends; the awakening of the world to the incalculable peril of war which is latent in its existing political system and philosophies—these have been among the considerations challenging men and women of religious faith to seek common ground for co-operative action in promoting Christian principles for individual, social and governmental behavior."
The day has come when the test must be made, and made in the open field of service for the world. We must no longer be content to drift, we must fight knowingly and with a full understanding of our problems. Despair as we will, the world is not so far amiss that it is as yet beyond the transforming power of the teachings of Jesus.
PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
The services of last Sunday reached a high degree of spiritual inspiration in every respect. Attendances were large throughout the day, in Sunday School and church worship, the sermons by the pastor were edifying, instructive, refreshing, and the Lord's Supper was appropriately observed with very touching and impressive ceremonies. Two adults were baptized and one adult was received into the church membership upon profession of faith.
Announcement that the matn auditorium would be closed until the first Sunday in August for repair, renovation and decoration, caused much re-

SUDDEN DEATH OF MRS. IRENE
FIFE, POPULAR DENVER
RESIDENT
"Leaves have their time to fall.
"Leaves have their time to fall,
and flowers to wither with the north
dirt's breath.
But thou hast lost all season's for
thine own death."
The sudden death of Mrs. Irene Fife, noted church, lodge and club worker, cast a gloom over residents of Denver who have been associated with her for over twenty years. Born in Saline county, Illinois nearly fifty years ago, she accompanied her parents to Denver when quite young and lived here continuously for more than half of her life. A faithful and devoted member of Shorter A. M. E church, where she was a member of the choir for several years, a zealous club worker, having filled many positions and chiefly instrumental in the founding of the Negro Woman's Home and Day Nursery; the late Worthy Matron of the Ruth Bright Chapter of the Order of Eastern Star, her short illness and sudden death has caused quite a grief among her relations and large circle of friends. The funeral service was held last Tuesday at Shorter church, where amidst numerous beautiful and rare floral offerings and a large number of friends, with the Rev. A. Wayman Ward officiating, the last rites were performed and her body consigned to the dust from whence she sprung. Interment, Fairmount cemetery.

Land Granted to Lafayette
In 1803, Lafayette was given ten different grants of land along the Mississippi river, and in 1824 he was granted one township which comprised 11,520 acres of land in west Florida. Tallahassee is now located on this site. It is impossible to give the locations of the other grants, as the land was not surveyed at that time except by special surveys, which were indicated by familiar landmarks.

Failure of congress to enact legislation recommended by Secretary Work's fact-finding commission, which provided for the writing off of more than $27,000,000 owed the government by reclamation farmers and for a more scientific method of repayment, dictated the action. It is believed that it will protect all settlers against foreclosure during the coming season, pending the passage of permanent legislation. Regulations covering the deferment of charges under the Phipps bill already have been issued by the bureau of reclamation, in which simplified rules of procedure for obtaining relief by settlers as well as water users' associations are outlined.
Those water users who have credits and assets enabling them to pay all or part of their obligations will be expected to do so, while those not able to pay, but who indicate intention to carry out their contracts by work on
FAILURE of congress at the recent session to pass the McFadden-Pepper bill revising the national banking act seriously jeopardizes the future of the national banking system, according to Representative McFadden (Rep., Pa.), chairman of the house committee on banking and currency. The bill, which is designed to remove some of the handicaps which place national banks at a disadvantage with state banks and trust companies, was approved by the house and senate committees on banking and currency and was scheduled for passage in both houses but unexpected opposition caused the leaders to sidetrack it.
Although congress is likely to pass the bill next winter, the banking situation, according to Mr. McFadden, will be more difficult to deal with then than now. Many leading national banks, it is declared, have contemplated withdrawing from the system unless the pending bill becomes law at an early date. The bill is supported by Controller Henry M. Pawes and the federal reserve board and has the indorsement of the American Bankers' association. "The competition of state banks and trust companies has grown up recently," said Representative McFadden.
THE opening of the Congressional Country club at Washington inaugurates a new era in country club history. Aside from the fact that the clubhouse, architecturally, is the finest of the kind in the world—equipped with the latest facilities for every form of recreation from bowling to fox hunting; aside from the fact that its membership includes the President of the United States, cabinet officers, members of congress, diplomats, ranking officers of every branch of the service, and financial kings, the club enjoys the distinction of being the first country club for the country at large in America. Instead of being plutocratic, as its impressive roster would imply, on the contrary, it is extremely democratic.
While belonging to the national capital, the Congressional Country club is national in scope of interest and of membership. Business and professional men and women resident in all parts of the United States, as well as in Porto Rico and the Philippines, helped build it, and belong to it. A bronze tablet in the clubhouse perpetuates the names of the founder
FORMAL reply to the protest of the Japanese government against the exclusion provision of the new immigration law is made by Secretary of State Hughes in a note to Masanao Hanihara, the Japanese ambassador, recently made public. Secretary Hughes expresses apprehension for the voluntary co-operation of the Japanese government in carrying out the gentlemen's agreement of 1907-08 and states that under the circumstances it is proper that the Japanese government should be considered released as from July 1, when the exclusion provision of the immigration act becomes effective, from any further obligation under the old agreement.
The secretary concludes his letter by expressing the conviction "that the recognition of the right of each government to legislate in control of immigration should not derogate in any degree from the mutual good will and cordial friendship which have always characterized the relations of the two countries."
Secretary Hughes, after citing the language of the sections which exempt certain classes from the exclusion provision, states that when these exceptions are taken into account the pro
the projects will be treated sympathetically. President Coolidge transmitted the report of the fact-finding commission to congress April 21, saying among other things:
"The facts developed by the special advisory committee show that of the government's total investment $18,861,146 will never be recovered. There will be a probable loss of an additional $8,830,000. These sums represent expenditures in the construction of reservoirs, canals, and other works for the irrigation of lands that have proven unproductive. I recommend that congress authorize the charging off of such sums shown to be impossible of collection. Because of high rates of interest and other agricultural difficulties existing farmers are often unable to borrow money for temporary relief. The establishment of a credit fund by the government from which farmers on projects may secure capital to make permanent improvements, buy equipment and live stock, should be considered. More than 30,000 water users are affected by the present serious condition. Action is deemed imperative on the part of the present congress, that their welfare may be safeguarded."
"The branch banking situation is developing so rapidly that the refusal of congress to consider this restrictive measure is simply an invitation for an extension of branch banking which will be more troublesome to deal with next December.
"This bill, the most important banking bill since the passage of the federal reserve act, is necessary to preserve and more firmly establish the benefits and advantages of that act. National banks can exercise no powers except those granted by congress, and the purpose of this bill is to restore as nearly as possible the equilibrium between the state and national banks within the federal reserve system. The bill will not place any disadvantage upon the state banks, but is in many respects favorable to them.
"Since January 1, 1918, 173 national banks, each with a capital of more than $100,000, gave up their national and took out state charters and carried with them a total assets of nearly $2,000,000,000. This is about 10 per cent of the total assets of the entire national banking system. At this rate it would not be many years before the system itself would be destroyed and the federal reserve system thereby left with only state member banks, which could withdraw at will."

vision does not differ greatly in its practical application or in its policy from the gentlemen's agreement under which the Japanese government cooperated in preventing the emigration of Japanese laborers to this country. The only point of substantial difference, he says, is that in the immigration act congress has exercised its prerogative in defining by legislation the control of immigration instead of leaving it to international arrangements. It is stated that while President Coolidge would have preferred to continue the gentlemen's agreement and to have entered into negotiations for such modifications as might seem to be desirable the American government does not feel that it is limited to such an international arrangement but that on the contrary it always has reserved the right of freedom with respect to control of immigration.
Reviewing the history of various negotiations and treaties between the United States and Japan. Secretary Hughes shows that the United States always has reserved the right to control immigration and that the Japanese government has repeatedly recognized this fact. It was with this distinct understanding, it is asserted, that the treaty of 1911 was concluded.
PRESIDENT'S SON DIES AT CAPITOL
CALVIN COOLIDGE, JR., LOSES HIS FIGHT OF FIVE DAYS WITH DISEASE
FOUGHT DEATH BRAVELY
INFECTION DEVELOPED FROM
BROKEN BLISTER ON
RIGHT FOOT
Washington.—Calvin Coolidge, Jr. son of the President, died Monday night, July 7, at Walter Reed hospital, of blood poisoning.
The end came after the boy had battled with the utmost bravery and fortitude for five days against a disease which had racked his body with pain and sapped the reserve strength of his frail constitution.
A sinking spell, the fourth he had suffered in twenty-four hours, brought death. Notwithstanding the use of oxygen and other restoratives, the courage which had withstood crisis after crisis and had beaten death off repeatedly, was unable to meet the attack. The collapse began at 6:30 o'clock and he gradually sank into eternity. He died at 10:30 o'clock.
Every resource of medical science was brought into play in the vain effort to save young Calvin's life. An operation was performed on the left leg to drain off the poison and blood transfusions and oxygen were resorted to in the later days of his illness. The natural strength of a boy of 16, however, which was counted on as the most powerful resisting force to the creeping poison was unable to meet the issue, and after having fought a brave but always losing fight, he succumbed. One of the final complications and the one which the physicians were unable to meet was the formation of gas on the stomach. The organ was washed out repeatedly in an effort to put it in condition to retain nourishment, but the effort was unsuccessful.
Young Calvin was removed to the hospital and an operation revealed inflammation of the bone marrow of the left leg, where the infection first localized in part. A slight rally followed, but his condition grew so serious that blood transfusion and oxygen administrations were resorted to.
Three sinking spells brought him to the point of death. A slight rally gave slight hope, but soon thereafter he began again to lose ground and he never rallied again.
The infection developed from a broken blister on right foot sustained during a tennis match with his brother, John, on the White House courts. At first, paying no attention to it, the youth developed an alarming condition and physicians were summoned.
The polson, however, once started, had spread so rapidly that medical skill was without avail. A number of specialists were called to act with White House physicians on the case and a desperate fight for life was made by the boy, who struggled in great pain and with high fever. President and Mrs. Coolidge bore up bravely. Soon after the death they went to the White House where the elder brother, John, was awaiting them.
Ford Renew $7,000,000 Loan
Detroit.-Henry Ford's loan of $77,000,000 to the city of Detroit was renewed with interest at 3 per cent Richard W. Reading, city comptroller announced. The former rate of interest was 4 per cent.
Dawes' Son Died in September, 1912
Chicago.—The death of Calvin Coolidge, Jr., son of President Coolidge, recalls a similar tragedy in the life of Gen. Charles G. Dawes, the President's running mate. His only son, Rufus Fleming Dawes, a student at Princeton University, was drowned at Lake Geneva, Wis., Sept. 6, 1912. As a memorial to the son, General Dawes has established one of three hotels for unfortunates, where "bath, bed and breakfast" is provided for 10 cents. The other hotels commemorate the general's father and mother. Two of the hotels are located in Chicago and one in Boston.
Subpoenas Prepared for Oil Company Chicago.—Formal appearance of representatives of the government in Federal Court to ask an injunction, sought in the recent complaint under the anti-trust act against some fifty oil companies, fs expected to be made within sixty days, it was learned recently. Subpoenas for service upon the heads of the various Standard and other companies are in preparation.
Send Condolence to Coolidge
New York—Hundreds of messages of condolence and sympathy upon the loss of his son were sent to President Coolidge by prominent Democrats attending the national Democratic convention. Among those who conveyed their condolence to the President were William Jennings Bryan, former Gov. James M. Cox of Ohio, Joseph P. Turnulty, Senator Earle B. Mayfield of Texas and Mayor William E. Dever of Chicago. Govs. Charles W. Bryan of Nebraska, Jonathan M. Davis of Kansas, W. W. Brandon of Alabama.

NEW YORK'S OLDEST CHURCH
St. Paul's church, which stands at the northwest corner of Broadway and Vesey street in "Little Old New York" is one of the three public buildings erected before the days of the Revolutionary war which have withstood the ravages of progress in that fast-changing city. The third church to be built, it is the oldest church edifice still standing on Manhattan island—the other two having passed into history.
This venerable, yet exceedingly well-preserved house of worship was commenced in 1764 and first opened for worship on October 30, 1766. The conflagration some years later ruined a considerable portion of the city and laid to waste buildings on all sides of this religious home, but by reason of the flatness of the roof which enabled the firemen to mount it and extingush the fires which were started by brands blown from other buildings falling on its roof, St. Paul's escaped with but little damage. A few years later a steepe was added. The interior of this splendid example of early-day church architecture was fashioned after that of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, London. The building is 113 feet long, 73 feet wide, and its tall, old-fashioned spire is made up of a series of differently shaped sections stacked one on top of the other.
In keeping with the majority of ancient houses of worship, St. Paul's is surrounded by a burial plot which, in turn, is inclosed by a tall iron fence. The grave of Francis Dring bears the earliest inscription of all of those in this yard—1767. Behind the chancel within the church rest the remains of Gen. Richard Montgomery, who lost his life in the battle before Quebec in 1775.
A condition which at once raises a question in the mind of the looker-on is the peculiar fact that this church turns its back on Broadway and faces toward the Hudson river and the New Jersey shore. It is explained that this came about because of the fact that at the time of its construction it was believed that the territory between the church and the river promised the greater development as the future unfolded. It has come to pass, however, that the reverse is true.
In 1780, a special service was held in St. Paul's following the inauguration of George Washington as the first president of the United States.
THE SKYSCRAPER CHURCH
In 1831, when Chicago was in its swaddling clothes, the Methodists purchased a plot of ground in the downtown section of the town and built their "first" church center upon it. By the time 1856 rolled around, the increased growth made the securing of larger quarters an absolute necessity. In the meantime, the business part of the city had shaped itself around the church and the value of the church property had increased at a tremendously rapid rate. The Methodists might have sold out at a handsome profit, but instead they decided to retain their holdings and capitalized the situation by combining religion and business after a new fashion, producing a practical novelty. They built a building several stories high, within which was a church, and rented the ground floor and all other space not used for church purposes, for business purposes.
History has again repeated itself. The attendance of 1922 had outgrown the church of 1856. Their plot had become the center of the city's retail business section. So again, the Methodists enlarged their quarters and in duplicating their former plan on a far larger and far more grand scale, they produced the tallest building in Chicago, the most unusual church building in America, and the highest church building in all the world.
This magnificent skyscraper church is 80 by 182 feet and 21 stories (and basement), or 260 feet high. The corner is surmounted by an elaborate but substantial spire which "carries on" 296 feet farther—making the total height of the structure 556 feet.
An elaborate entrance leads from the street directly into a veritable dream of a "house of worship," surrounded by shops and stores within. This secluded church is modeled somewhat after the style of the English churches, elegant but simple, dignified, and in silent accord with the creed of the church, with a seating capacity of about 1,300 persons and containing an organ as fine in quality and pleasing in tone as the experts of the organ-builder's art could produce. The original church is said to have cost $580. The new structure, its graceful spire dwarfing all other skyscrapers in Chicago, cost about $5,000,000, and the annual income from the space rented for stores and offices is a fabulous one.

Corner in Girl's Room, Showing Pleasing Arrangement.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
With a little thought and some real work a girl can transform an uninteresting, uninviting room into a place of tranquillity and charm. The girls in the "Own Your Own Room" clubs, under the direction of the United States Department of Agriculture and various state agricultural colleges, have accomplished wonderful results in making over unattractive rooms according to the suggestions given them by club leaders.

A neutral shade for the walls, floors, and larger articles in the room is usually pleasing. Cushions, table covers, books, and other small bright colored objects give the needed touch of color. Chintz or cretonne in curtains and cushions sometimes suggests the color to be emphasized. This is more informal and homelike than an attempt to have everything match. No matter what color scheme is chosen, the darkest tones are best for the floor and its covering, lighter tones for the walls, and the lightest for the ceiling.
Floors Easily Cared For.
Smoothly finished floors, partly covered with rugs are easily cared for. Paint or varnish can often be applied to an old unfinished wood floor to make it look better. Attractive bedroom rugs can be made at home by braiding, crocheting, or weaving rags and odds and ends of material. Plain wall papers or those with inconspicuous all-over designs are good backgrounds for pictures. A plastered wall may be painted quite easily. A girl should be able to paint both the plaster and woodwork of her room if the latter needs attention. Painted bedroom furniture is much prettier than cheap grades of oak or stained wood. Old bureaus, bedsteads, tables and chairs, even though quite different in design, can be made to look as though they belonged together if carefully painted white, ivory, or an at-
Insects Can Be Kept Off By Using Flowers of Sulphur.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) If it is necessary to go where chiggers abound they may be kept off by preylessly sifting flowers of sulphur into the underclothes and stockings, says the United States Department of Agriculture. Naphthalene, which also protects from other insects, has been used in the same way. Vaseline, pure or mixed with sulphur, is satisfactory except that it soils the clothing.
A good hot bath, with salt or strong soap, taken immediately after exposure will often prevent those on the skin from "digging in"; but as the presence of the tiny insects is unfortunately not evident for some hours after going into long grass or bushes, the only thing to do when they are discovered is to apply some cooling lotion, such as ammonia or bicarbonate of soda, directly on the affected parts. A 10 per cent dilution of carbolic acid, a dilute tincture of iodine, or collodion may be used.
The destruction of wild bushes and other places which harbor chiggers has helped to eradicate them. Private lawns and country clubs can be made free from them to a large extent by keeping the grass cut and useless herbage mowed as closely as possible, so as to expose the chiggers to the sun. Dusting the grass and other plants with sulphur, or spraying with dilute kerosene emulsion mixed with sulphur facilitates extermination. Putting sheep to pasture on large acreages is thought to get rid of chiggers, because, it is believed, they are affected by the oil or lanoline in the sheep's wool.

tractive shade of gray or tan. The old finish should, however, be removed and the wood sandpapered smooth before any paint is applied.
Choose a Good Bed.
A simple, painted-metal single bed with a good mattress and spring is desirable for a young girl. A slip-on cover of unbleached muslin is excellent for keeping the mattress clean. The pillow, like the mattress, should be protected by a thin, close-fitting, washable cover between the ticking and the pillow case.
An improvised dressing table can be made by hanging a mirror over a small table. This is to be preferred to dressing tables with flouances of cretonne that collect dust. A bureau or chest of drawers is needed for storing clothing and personal belongings. Bureau and table covers should be as simple as possible and always fresh and clean. The chair should be comfortable to sit in. A bookshelf and work table are attractive touches. Some sort of wardrobe or closet is needed in which to hang clothing. A good wastebasket that will not tip over easily nor shed dirt, should be provided. Shades and curtains should regulate but not shut out light and air. Simple, durable, softly hanging materials such as white or cream volle, scrim, Swiss, or cheesecloth, hemmed or hemstitched, make good washable curtains which may have overcurtains of colored or figured material.
The lighting is important. For lighting the bureau or dressing table an electric light on a drop cord or an inverted gas burner gives a much better light if suspended over it, but if kerosene is the only source of light available a bracket lamp fastened to the wall at one side of the bureau gives the best lighting. For reading, a table lamp is most satisfactory. One or two well-chosen pictures, simply framed, add to the room, but useless ornaments only increase the work of cleaning.
FRUIT ICE CREAMS OF VARIOUS KINDS
Different Flavors May Be Had as Desired
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
Far from the soda fountain—out in the country, at shore or mountain resort—the children may enjoy chocolate sundaes and fruit ice creams of many kinds if ice is procurable and if they are willing to furnish the labor when it comes to turning the freezer.

chopped walnut meats; with crushed fruit in sirup it may be some other kind of sundae.
Vanilla ice cream can also be varied by introducing different flavors into the mixture before freezing it. A cupful of sweetened fruit pulp is the right amount for the quantity of cream and other ingredients in the recipe. Half a pint of sweetened peach pulp (made from one cupful of dried peaches and ¾ pound of sugar) is enough for about 2 quarts of the crushed peach ice cream illustrated. A few tablespoonfuls of caramel flavor in vanilla ice cream gives a pleasant variation, says the United States Department of Agriculture.
The KITCHEN CABINET
(6, 1924, Western Newspaper Union).
All men whom might genius has raised to a proud eminence in the world have usually some little weakness which appears the more conspicuous from the contrast it presents to their general character.—Picklew Papers.
SOME BEST DISHES
This is the time of year when we look for foods to tempt the appetite. A most delicious meal and one which may be stretched to feed several more may be prepared from the following recipe:
BUNNY
Chicken Warmein
Stew a large fat fowl in plenty of water to make a good supply of broth.
Remove the fowl and cut the meat into bits after removing it from the bones. Into the broth drop nicely diced celery and cook it until tender, keeping the diced chicken hot over steam or hot water. Remove the celery after cooking and then add noodles, cooking until they are done. When serving make a nest of noodles add some of the celery and on top place the chicken; all should be well-seasoned while cooking. Serve with mashed potatoes and gravy made from the seasoned broth.
Here is a dainty dessert which is good enough to serve for company:
Frozen Fruit.—Mix together two and one-half cupfuls of sugar and one tablespoonful of flour; add one cupful of boiling water, stir and cook until the flour is well cooked. Add the juice of three lemons, three oranges, three mashed bananas and a can of grated pineapple with three cupfuls of cold water. Fold in the stiffly beaten whites of three eggs and freeze as usual.
Here is a cooky that young and old will clamor for:
Filled Cookies.—To one-half cupful of shortening add one cupful of sugar, one egg, one-half cupful of sweet milk in which a teaspoonful of soda is dissolved. Sift three and one-half cupfuls of flour with two teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar, add a teaspoonful of vanilla and mix well; roll out and cut with a cooky cutter. Put together in pairs with the following filling: Cook one cupful of chopped raisins with one-half cupful of water, one tablespoonful of flour and lemon juice to taste, adding a bit of the grated lemon rind. When thick cool and use as filling.
It is scarcely an exaggeration to say that many matters which agitate the public mind are not worth a thought in comparison with dietary questions to which a thought is seldom given.
SUMMERY DISHES
Now that the fresh fruit and berries are plentiful one may enjoy a variety of fruit combinations.
草莓
Pineapple Turnovers.—Roll pastry thin and cut into four-inch squares. Drain the sirup from one cupful of grated pineapple. On the center of each square place a tablespoonful of the drained pineapple and one teaspoonful each of sugar and butter. Moisten the edges of the pastry and fold together in the form of triangles, pressing the edges firmly together. Fry until brown in deep fat. Drain on brown paper; sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
Strawberry Pudding.—Soften two tablespoonfuls of gelatin in one-half cupful of cold water; add one and one-half cupfuls of boiling water and stir until the gelatin is dissolved. Add one-half cupful of sugar, one and one-half cupfuls of strawberries, crushed, and a tablespoonful of lemon juice. Let stand in a cold place until the mixture looks creamy, then add two stiffly-beaten egg whites and pour the jelly into molds. Serve on squares of sponge cake with cream and sugar and garnish with whole berries.
Pineapple Sandwiches.—Cut oblong slices of sponge cake about one-half-inch thick. Put together in pairs with a layer of crushed pineapple between. Place on individual serving dishes, sprinkle with powdered sugar and decorate with quarters of blanched almonds, stuck into the cake. Serve with a cold custard sauce.
Frozen Fruit Salad.—Cut six slices of pineapple into small pieces; mix with two cupfuls of strawberries. Stir in one cupful of mayonnaise with one cupful of whipped cream. Fill baking powder boxes with the mixture; cover with greased paper and put on the covers. Bind the edges to keep out the salt, with a strip of cloth dipped in melted wax. Pack in a pail with two parts of ice to one of salt. Let stand three hours. Serve cut into slices with cream mayonnaise dressing.
Date Loaf Cake.—To one pound of dates and one pound of walnuts add one cupful each of flour and sugar, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, four eggs, vanilla, salt to taste. Use the dates and nut meats whole; sift over the flour, which has been well sifted with the baking powder and again with the sugar. Beat the egg yolks; add the vanilla and salt and fold in the stiffly-beaten whites; bake one hour.

And leave the place where it has stood through sunshine and rain.
Here is a choice pound cake which is not too expensive for an occasional indulgence:

Pound Cake. Cream two-thirds of a cupful of butter; add one cupful of sugar, the well-beaten yolks of four eggs; add a little of a cupful and one-half of flour, sifted with one teaspoonful of baking powder and then add one teaspoonful of milk. Mix well and add the rest of the flour and the stiffly-beaten whites. Bake in a paper-lined pan for forty minutes. A clever way to serve apple dumplings or any fruit dumplings, except too juicy fruit, is to slice the fruit into muffin rings, set in an agate pan and cover with a rich biscuit dough on top; bake as usual. Remove carefully and a shapely dumpling will result.
Raisin and Celery Salad.—Cut into small pieces two cupfuls of tender celery, two oranges, broken into bits, and two-thirds of a cupful of raisins, seeded and plumped over steam. Add one cupful of grated apple to a cupful of mayonnaise and cover the fruit. This is an especially delicious combination.
Cassoulet.—This is a famous French dish which is both historical and appetizing. Soak over night a quart of lima beans; in the morning bring to the boiling point and drain. Add fresh boiling water, a teaspoonful of salt, and cook until nearly done. Now place in a casserole two cupfuls of cooked chicken or duck, the drained beans, an onion, chopped, one-half cupful of strained tomato, a quart of hot broth and a teaspoonful of kitchen bouquet. Bake one hour, then uncover; sprinkle with a little chopped parsley, brown and serve.
Popcorn Wafers.—When one wants to serve a tasty little cracker with a cup of tea or a glass of ginger ale try these: Take buttered popcorn, using only the fully popped kernels, put through a meat grinder and add to boiled frosting. Heap on salted wafers and bake in a quick oven.
Another Raspberry Shrub. — For every four quarts of berries add one quart of vinegar—good elder vinegar. Cover the jar of fruit and let stand three days: If cool weather, four, stirring the fruit every day. Strain through a jelly bag and for each pint of the juice add one pound of sugar. Cook gently for twenty minutes, then bottle and seal. Store in a cool, dark place.
We should encourage others by our faith and cheer, but we have no right to dishearten them by doubt and gloom.
WHAT TO HAVE FOR DINNER
"Since Eve ate apples, much depends on dinner." The planning of good dinners suitable to one's means and family is no small problem.
Fillet of Beef With Vegetables.—Wipe a three-pound fillet and remove the fat. Put a half-pound of butter in a hot frying pan and when
Fillet of Beef With Vegetables.—Wipe a three-pound fillet and remove the fat. Put a half-pound of butter in a hot frying pan and when melted add the fillet and turn frequently until well seared and browned, then turn occasionally until well cooked—about thirty minutes. Remove the meat to a serving dish and garnish with a cupful each of peas and carrots cut into fancy shapes. Season well and add one-half pound of mushrooms sautéed in a little butter. Serve with:
Brown Mushroom Sauce.—Mushrooms are to be had for the gathering these days, as the fields are full of the delicious vegetable until frost comes. Take one-fourth cupful of the fat from the frying pan, add five tablespoonfuls of flour and stir until well browned; add a cupful of soup stock, a third of a cupful of mushroom liquor and one-half pound of mushrooms which have have beep cooked in butter five minutes. Season with salt and pepper; just before serving add the remaining butter in the frying pan. The liquor of mushrooms is obtained by cooking the stems in cold water to cover. Simmer until reduced to one-third of a cupful.
Braised Beef.—Try out two thin slices of salt pork and remove the scraps. Wipe three pounds of beef cut from the rump and sprinkle with salt and pepper and flour; brown the surface in hot fat, turning carefully not to pierce the meat and allow the juices to escape. Place on a trivet in a deep earthen pan or baking dish and surround with the following vegetables: One-fourth of a cupful each of onion, turnip, celery and carrot cut fine; add a teaspoonful of salt and one-half teaspoonful of peppercorns. Cover with three cupfuls of boiling water and cover closely, cooking four hours. Baste the meat every half hour, keeping the liquid at the simmering point. Serve with a brown sauce made from the liquor in the pan.

ALL WHITE MILLINERY IN VOGUE; BEACH TOGS AND BATHING SUITS
FOR midsummer the mode finds happiest expression in terms of all-white costuming. Dress of immaculate whiteness throughout makes an especially fascinating appeal to women of fashion this year. Of assured style prestige is she who wears a simple white canton crepe dress with cape or three-quarter coat of self material, shoes fanciful but white, chapeau prob-

ably of utmost simplicity, the vogue being interpreted in its snowy whiteness.
Charming exponents of white millinery are shown in the accompanying illustration. It will be noted that in this group there is no partiality shown to large or small brims, for the all-white chapeau collections in the best shops include both.
The very large brim in the center at the top is made of white crepe with silver interwoven in the drape. Tiny grosgrain white ribbon is looped en masse, to the left of the very high crown.
Valenciennes lace enters into composition with crepe in the other large white hat. There is an abundance of fine shirring with handwork further applied in the making of wee roses of the crepe, placed in pinwheel fashion with the aid of fancy stitchery.
White bengaline silk is a millinery fabric of importance and the designer uses this medium for the attractive little hat shown below to the right. Belting ribbon is used for the cunning cloche in the circle to the left below. The all-ribbon hat is one of the

smartest millinery types of this season. Attention is called to the ornament through which ribbon is drawn at each side.
Scallop-tucked white organdle is used row and row, as, if it were straw braid, for the pliant model centered to the right.
Ribbon of infinitesimal width is shirred all over the hat pictured to the right above. The tabs which form the brim are an especially interesting feature.

represented at seashore and bathing beach is like a huge palette of riotous color, wherewith nature and fashion work in unison for artistic effect. Bathing suits and beach costumes of gorgeous plaids, gay gypsy colorings, startling blacks and whites, mystic oriental hues, tones of barbaric splendor, appealing pastel shades, supply splotches of color which seem to inten-

sify against the background of neutral sand stretches bounded with ocean blue-green and changing sea tints.
It matters not whether one chooses a costume, elaborately styled of satin, crepe de chine, taffeta, alpaca or other favored fabric, or whether one prefers a plain-knit form-fitting bathing suit, color is the dominating note. Indeed, it would seem as if it were almost one's duty to wear gay color, since it adds so much to the picture.
An interesting color scheme is achieved in the smart bathing costume worn by the beach-beauty posing under the Japanese parasol in the picture. It is one of the new coat models of American origination. Black satin is the medium selected for its styling. The coat is piped with white and likewise monogrammed, the same worn over bright red bloomers. The hat is of black and white.
The knit bathing suit does its part in accenting color, being a deep purple with orange decorative design. The gypsy-like silken square tied over the hair is a bright crimson shade. One of the cleverest models of taffeta is cut on form-fitting princess

lines, with short skirt full flare, the entire suit from neck to hem covered with wee taffeta bias ruffles. The effect is charming and youthful.
As important as the bathing or beach suit itself is the cape to go with it. Effects are gorgeous in the beach wrap. Perhaps the new plaid ones give the greatest thrill of being of up-to-the-minute vogue. Also solid colored wraps with scarfs in Roman stripes compete for the beauty prize.
