The large and rapidly growing population of Chicago, with its attendant housing, employment and other sociological and economic problems some of the issues of the city are of searching study by Mr. Sandburg of the Chicago Daily News. The following is one of the issues that shows the results of his inquiry:
BY CARL SANDBURG.
The city is called Chicago, today holds at least 125,000 persons. This is double the number that district hold five years ago, when the Chicago is probably the third city in the United States in number of residents. Today ranks as fifth in this regard, according to estimates of Frederick Rex, mourning referent of Chicago, who may possibly exceed Chicago in this population group are New York, New Jersey, and Boston, with 84,749; Philadelphia, with 84,468, and Washington, with 94,466. The Colts have increased since the last incident. New Orleans, which had 89,262, has increased since the last incident. The same will apply to three other large southern cities where the population at the beginning of the war was about equal to that of Chicago. These are Birmingham, Ala., Atlanta, and Memphis. The population of the proper Chicago population of Chicago was 125,000. The figure most commonly agreed on was 125,000. The population of Chicago was 125,000.

NEGROES IN SOUTH THRIFTY
Evidence of Prosperity Reflected in Home Surroundings.
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Grund Raphael, Mich., July 24—"I is the Negro who has made the furniture man of the south rich from his business. The whites have helped, but the tremendous business we have been enjoying recently has come in larger degree from the colored man."
It was a furniture man from Atlanta, Ga., who was doing the talking, and his talk was most interesting and white. "I think I may say that the Negro of the south has made more rapid development than any man has. The reason is manifest. He had a longer distance to go and he is covering that distance very rapidly. He is taking advantage of the institutional system and he is getting ahead in an economic way very rapidly. Who knew it? I am aware of the Negro that when he has money he likes to spend it and when he does spend it he usually wants something mighty good for it. As a result you

Of these 1,850 there were only 400 district had 7,323 passed by the examination. The armies was declared, this district had 7,323 passed by the examination. So it is clear that in one neighborhood are thousands of strong young men who have been talking to each other intimately related to the questions; "What are we ready to die for?" Why? What is the meaning of freedom; of self-determination; of windows and in cisar stores and hawdasheries are helmets, fifes, catridges, cannets and hawdasheries that were sent to France. We are around the district and talk with the black folks and leaders of the black folks. Ask them, "What about the future of the colored people." What is the meaning of freedom; of glory, the far we love because it stands for our freedom, hasn't got to do anything, we want to see our country live up to the constitution and the decoration of independence." With All, Soldiers, ministers, lawyers, doctors politicians machinists, teachers, day care workers standing thought they offer what is consulted about to-morrow, next week, to the consideration of race and color of America. There is no approaching the matters of house jobs or political relations of the colored people in consideration of their own vivid conception of what they consider then

It is very interesting to go into some of these homes. I have been in many of them and many of the homes are very small and so far as the house it houses is small, many of the presentations I have been in of more than three rooms and found in one a $90 range and a bed room suite in another a $100 range and the room would be a mighty fine living room suite along with a $500 and a bedroom suite and a old fellow who the homes of single men living in one room and found it beautiful furnished and looked good old fellow will all the furniture, since he was there only long enough to sleep, and his reply was that he would call and call his home to look nice.

Colored Girls Denied Admission To Public Swimming Pool
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Worcester, Mass., July 24.—Race prejudice exists at the Worcester Boys' Club in Worcester, and two young Worcester colored girls were denied admission to the swimming pool a week ago, on "Women's Night," 3 Sperintendent David W. Armstrong, according to charges made by George T. Dominis, attorney on behalf of a special committee of Worcester citizens who sent a strong protest letter to Reginald Washburn, the Club's president. Since this letter was sent to conference was held by President Washburn, Attorney Dominis and City Councilman Charles E. Scott.
"I cannot understand why colored boys are allowed to bathe in the pool of the Boys' Club while colored women are barred. Councilman Scott said, 'Wheat-ine campaign was on to obtain funds for the Boys' Club, colored people were on the committee and did their part.
"I have always understood the club to be for all classes of people without thought or question of creed or color. It is time the colored people of Worcester asserted themselves and demanded their rights. If any other people were barred from the pool there would be a big howl that would likely reach Washington."
COLORED MAYOR FORGED TO LEAVE CITY
(By the Associated Negro Press.) Amstrom, Amish, July 24, 1842. Blaise and a crowd, with a bald and cross bones, usually used to spell death in all of its horrors, followed by an alleged assault against his person, who was killed. The reason for the departure for the north of Newman O'Neal, mayor of Hobson City, the exclusive Negro town near Newman City, a few weeks ago, the Hobson City mayor is said to have received a warning that he would be killed unless he was sent to the town time after the receipt of the letter, the mayor claimed that he had been assaulted near his home. He was then to be intended to obey the warning in the letter. Accordingly, he gave his position to the government at Hobson City, and went north. Since his departure from this section no other of the officers of the town have witnessed a warning or block hand letters.

(By the Associated Negro Press, Birmingham, Ala., July 24—The white south is slipping in its propaganda of race hatred and injustices. For the past few months, but peaceful, as may be attested from the very descriptive statement, one by W. C. Fellows, who is very much "ted up" over the railroad Administration permitting colored people to occupy the manhole. The ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS investigated the persons referred to by Mr. Fellows and learns that they were people of the highest intelligence, college education and every way, demonstrating refinement and culture. But, hear what Fellows has said—"There is another new record which the railroads are making under United States control, which we call police warfare, which we feel save that you have not been informed of.

Edgar Caldwell, the mayor of Caldwell, the special specifc of the circuit court of Caldwell County for the murder of Condeen McCormick in December 1985, will be hanged in the Caldwell County jail on Friday, August 18, exactly eight months after the murder. The supreme court of Alabama on Monday handed a decision down suing Caldwell County court and jury which inflicted the death penalty on the slayer of the murderer. The county court and jury can save the Negro from the hangman's moose is the commuting power of the Negro. The court foreseen and unexpected situation, and the chances are that the Negro solder will pay the penalty for his crime. The case of Caldwell has become one of the few celebrated criminal cases in the United States. As a passenger on the street car of the main conductor in December, the Negro involved in a difficulty. After being ejected from the car by Conductor Morrison, Caldwell drew a small calibre pistol from his brouse, a small bullet Linton squared thru the head killing the smoker pistol on the motorman, the Negro striking the motorman, the neck and inflicting a serious wound.

RECORDS IN UNITED STATES ARMY DECIDE IN FAVOR OF THE NEGRO
WRITER IN JOURNAL OF AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION REVEALS STARTLING FACTS BASED ON UNPREJUDICED STATISTICS
(By the Associated Negro Press.)
Chicago, July 24 — An article on the American Negro in the Journal of American Medical Association is reminiscent of some of the “white hope” discussions that preceded the Willard case. Which is the better man in a physical sense, the white man or the colored man?
After comparing the records of the whites and blacks in the United States army, where they lived under exactly the same conditions, the studies that the Negro is a better physiological machine. It appears that the Negro is less subject to disease than the white man. He has less power of resistance to certain diseases, for example tuberculosis and Alabama down into or Mississippi.

Paris, France, July 24-24. France has a reputation for being a democracy and justice, has created a new sensation for the world. It may be a faid, or it may be the beinning of an empire. It has been the war. The war gave to France a clear idea of what the colored peoples of the world have accomplished. The war has made France is anxious to learn more.

LABOR COMPETITION CAUSES RACE RIOT Returned Soldiers Find Jobs Occupied by Negroes.
London, July 24—Rice rieps in the northern part of England and Wales have created a stir throughout the country, principally because of the novelty of such occurrences in these regions. Normally there are few Negroes of aliens with Colored skins to be seen in Great Britain, but the exigencies or caused the importation of a large number of seaport docks and to recruit the gangs of manual laborers depleting the seaport. Many of these were brought from various parts of the world, South Africa and the West Indies, but many also were imported. Repatriation of these Colored men to the United States was that many, unimagined British soldiers have had what to them seemed the bitter experience of seeing a stranger in their own country and deployment while they themselves looked in vain for them. Over this state of affairs quickly developed into hatred when the soldiers observed that the strangers were trying to cultivate a new country, and the number of Negroes who white wives, the officer in the district, met disheartened as very serious both from a health and economic point of view, and asserts that they still without employment, while Negroes are employed. If this not a major injustice, in that it does not thaniquestim that the men who have fought for their country should find the jobs they need.

Mrs. Talbert has come as the representative of the National Association of Colored Women, of which she is president, and with a group of other women of her race, is leaving for Verdun and Chateau Thierry, where are located many colored soldiers engaged in work in the camereries. There is a special need for workers among the colored soldiers, and it is with the idea of taking cheer to them that these women have come overseas to augment the number who came here earlier in the history of the war.

RESOLUTIONS IN BEHALF OF
BRO. WM. GEORGE.
Dallas, Texas, July 20, 1919. Today we pause with hearts touched with deepest sympathy while our very souls are filled with love to pay tribute of honor and respect to one of the greatest men of the race that has helped to make history for Dallas.
Though it is human weep, because of our weakness of flesh and human devotion, and we realize that we have lost in our home, church and fraternal circle, a precious jewel, yet we are glad to know that we have the consolation that the Heavenly Florist has added another beautiful flower of beautiful Christian Manhood to our immortal times. We are still more proud of the fact that one so Great as Sov. William George has left us such noble examples to emulate.
To the devoted wife and children and other relatives we wish to state that our hearts go out to you filled to the utmost with love and deepest sympathy, not only in words we stand willing and ready to prove our devotion by words and by extending a helping hand just this we ask of you, take us into your confidence and ask what thou wilt have us do. Whereas, our Almighty Universal King has seen fit to remove from us our honored Sovereign Deacon George, our fraternal brother and brother to our Universal Queen, and we are, Mr. Pilgrim Kingdom No. 48 has lost one of her most worthy members.
Be it Resolved that we, the subordinate Kingdom of Heroes and Heroes, Pilgrim Kiddom No. 48, bow in humble submission to His Almighty Power and say Thy will not owe us the respect. That we while sympathizing with the bereft family and friends, command them to the God of our salute, and to the Lord of our trouble, sorrow and distress. Resolved further that a copy of the book of Psalms put the revered family, a cove be sent to the Universal Scribe of Heroes and Heroes of Pelfendland, put honor upon the book of Psalms, a cove be spread upon the minutes of Mt. Pilgrim Kiddom No. 48 and the book to the Negro Press for publication.

COLORED LADIES PAY MORE FOR
INFERIOR THAN WHITES PAY
FOR FIRST-CLASS GOODS.
In dealing with the local grocery market our finding has revealed that Colored patrons are over charged by the ward grocer who thrives upon their home stores, these places each day offer them the food and proper necessities they are charged exorbitant prices which are found in the grocery store found lining prices lift*'s places and paying prices unheard no kicks are made hence nothing is ever done. Because we present for an example if Mrs. A. a spring price chicken which the merchant has raised for 600 on a previous day to 650. Mrs. A. is thus refusing to pay such exorbitant prices. Mrs. B. stands up with no reorder or cut price and asks for up please. Whereas if several of our women had refused this price we are paying for less White women are paying for less for groceries than our women and gets the same price. Colored women are getting inferior stuff for which they pay more than

Attendance was good in Sunday school. Addresses were given by Rev. F. L. George, State Evangelist and Rev. J. A. George, Vine. At 11 o'clock the attendance was good and the Rev. George Talbott addressed on subject "Whatever You Sew, that Shall You also Reap." After the prayer board held prayers for George, assigned two children at 5:30 the Missionary sister met. At 8:30 the prayer board held prayers for George took his stand on the Mount of God's Glory and for a few mowing hours and he was in Heaven and are we home at last?
One accepted and joined us. The officer, members and friends of Jesus tell the public the right man is in the right place. You don't believe in Jesus, you don't believe in meeting Sunday evening at 3 o'clock.
We are planning to make this the first Sunday this year. Come and help us.

ENLIGHTENED HIS HOPES.
As a rule the colored man thinks too much about death and the hereafter. For this we blame the religious system of which he is the victim. Most of the songs are of the grave. Most of the sermons are about hell and damnation. More time is spent at a grave or a cemetery. The most awful descriptive language known to the human tongue is marshaled together and is accompanied with the things above mentioned with other practices equally worthy of censure, the "why", as it concerns the colored grave view is important of time. There are reasons why the time has been spent to make the grave a paramount issue with the colored man. One of these reasons is the absence of time, and as a natural consequence, those things which belong to time, would to him be less important. The absence of time, and as a natural consequence of the masses, has served as a guarantee that these same masses could be made the victims of the clues and limbs of those who sorrow
The remedy is the enlightenment of the people. A campaign of education must issue and those who desire to see the colored man take his place among men as a world figure must see that the campaign is made continuous. The diversified knowledge in the possession of the men other than the colored, among whom the colored men must move and have their being, makes a like quality and guaranty of knowledge absolutely necessary, if he it totake and hold rank among them. To illustrate—if one is to take rank among musicians, he must know music; if among financiers he must command money; if among church men, he must profess religion, and so on to the end of the chapter.
It is at once apparent, that whoever whatever, chains the colored man to the grave, and makes the hereafter a dominant and life prevailing influence, forces him to be a medicore along all other lines.
Let the grave alone. It is sure. Let the hereafter remain in the future. We are coming to it day by day. Let us act in the living present, being careful to come up to the measure of the times in which we live, bearing in mind that he who lives best will die best.
A LECTURE TO WHITE DALLAS.
Often we see in Dallas a great movement looking to the betterment of all the people. Ott or a total population of approximately 15,000 adults, some 30,000 are of African extraction, and yet the white section of the town cannot see that any representative of this element is entitled to be present when the plans are being made.
Some time, some wise white man asks his chauffeur, cook or chamber maid—may be the colored man cutting the grass in the alley, what the negro population may desire respecting the proposed city-wide agreement. When he shall have received this information (7) he knows all he cares to know about what would meet the wishes of 20,000 people, who pay taxes on $1,000,000 worth of property. The next taking the color of people know it, that they are expected to do a certain thing, upon which white men have agreed.
This rule is adopted in reaching conclusions as to the most influential negroes, the best men, the most skillful, the surgeon, the most upright and most patriotic. As a whole the colored people obey this order and do what they are told. As long as they do it, this thing will be on
A like course is parured respecting movements born among colored folks, because we care to inform themselves. Instead of the meeting, or getting in touch with the moving spirit, some wise white man, the nigger, comes to the importance of the servants, what the "niggers are doing with or about such and such a thing." Being told, the nigger asks, "What is the chary that his servant knows the will and with of every one of the 3,000 colored folks in the city, and with of colored man and the world that know the best friends of the Southern black man are southern white man. These niggers know "knowing the darky better than he knows himself," and asks the outside world to leave it to them to map out the man which should be accorded him. Gentlemen, you are wrong and know it. Keep in mind that we live in a world where the consent must be given with the consent of the government, and that consent should be accepted. This done, the race must grow to a great scale, the race must grow to a great scale. In this the situation will be heard. A condition and a set of conditions can be and must be
A BOOK WHICH WILL LIVE.
The History of the American Negro in the Great World War by W. Allison Sweeney, Chicago, is among the new books which have come to our review Table for the month. The book is fortunately illustrated and in the point of artistic finish, it is up to the minute. It makes up in a near volume of 307 pages, bound in durable English cloth, properly tinted and embossed, every line of which bristles with the living fire of patriotism. The author, Mr. W. Allison Sweeney, contributing editor of the Chicago Defender, has fully sustained in this book his well earned reputation as one of the most brilliant editors now before the American people.
His book will serve to preserve a part of the impartial record of the Afro-American in the battle zone of Europe, and will remain an increasing protest against the injustice of white America. The book should be in every library in the land.

We are indebted to the Houston Informer, a live, wide-awake weekly for the information that in a population of eight or nine cars, by the Houston Post, in which $20,000 worth of prices are to be given away, consisting of eight motor cars, ten pianos ten diamond rings ten phone cases, ten watches, but white subcriber cards can participate. The announcement in the Houston Daily Post reads as follows: "The Houston Post will cover 16 years of age, either married or single, of good character and of the GAUCHASAN RACE." Covered people in Houston and different parts of Texas who have for years and do now take the Houston Post, many prefer to remain to be seen if they have the common sense to write the Post to stop their copy. If a colored newspaper should discriminate against people who would not only stop subscribing or otherwise supporting it, but they would go into the courts and attack the Post for its admission as a public service enterprise.
We talk about fighting prejudice, but often fail to employ the weapons which count for most. The best fight to make on the Post is not to berate and condemn the whole white race, but to cease substaning it with the money which you have been paying it. This course is —— end legal.

CALL OF THE REPUBLICAN COUNCIL
Less than a year away from the next Republican National Convention which will name the standard bearers in the coming presidential campaign, Mr. Trump will announce his nomination in Texas or elsewhere about the Republican party, will be food for thought.
On the morning of July 9, the Democrat newspaper printed the following. We print heading and all. It says:
Statement Says Democrate in Large Numbera Flocking to Republi can Party.
Fort Worth, Texas, July 8.—A call for a meeting of the committee of the Texas republican council was issued today for next Saturday, July 10. The chairman. The meeting will be for the purpose of planning a systematic canvass of the state for membership in the council, and to arrange for a thorough organization of the party throughout the state. The materials received at headquarters of the council indicate a general and pronounced desire for two parties in Texas," Mr. Littleton stated today. He said that demonstrators in large numbers are flocking into the republican party. The council is going to be a democrats and proglodal republicans into the republican party and we are going to put up a fight in 1920 that will put Texas into the republican members of the committee are C. C. Littleton, chairman, Fort Worth, Lee, Houston, Eugen Holey, Sequim, Fort Worth and Paul Gage, Dallas.
The Texas Republican Council is a new side attraction to the State Republican main show, we take it. Like the Republican main show, we also have a at late com, advice, will turn out to be one of the things it can use to win. We are flocking to all of any story intended to make you believe that "Texas Democrats in large numbers, are flocking to the Republican side." So far as the Dallas Express can find out the "Council" is "Lilly White," we are flocking to the white Democrats will be attracted to the Republican party by p-ing it of the negro, at least so far as an concern is raised. We are flocking to the bury away back in 1892, when Jim Newcomb, H. F. M. MacGregor, N. B. Moore, W. H. A. Hawen and other Republican leaders will be flocking to all white in management) and stormed the National Republican convention, no personage was present, all of Ohio man of the Committee on Credentials and told the Texas Lilies that the National Convention was a party of princel
From that day until this good hour, the Republican party has refused to grow whenever its local or state leaders have countenanced any race appears for or against any element of our population.
It is history, that in the campaign where the question of who sat in party councils was decided by merit and not by race, where the fullest investigation of party irregularity was counted to the end that a correct settlement would be the outcome, and where all men who professed the faith of the party could be heard, regardless of race, in those campaigns have seen the largest vote polled and the greatest harmony maintained.
Vain attempts have been made from time to time in Texas the past twenty years to surround the disgruntled Democrats and lead them into the Republican fold, and all to no avail. The record shows that the more efforts are made to get the Democrats into the Republican party, the smaller the vote polled by the Republicans at the polls.
The cause is known. There are perhaps today 100,000 qualified candidates, whose Republicanism, revolves at the un-Republican methods now in vogue in this state. This leaves some un-Republican candidates for Revenue only and Iudernal Republicans who vote the National Republican ticket in order to be in line with the true white Republicans and the negro Republicans will never vote the ticket and obey the party mandates. The Republican Party will be lifted above the low level of race considerations. The Chairman Phil E. Beer and National Committee H. T. Macegrew, should call off the Texas Republican Council. It is an unnecessary effort to do cannot be done except by to do cannot be done except by the State Executive Committee. If that committee was re-organized, red-blooded working Republicans, whatever is needed to make the party grow in Texas they would have
An effort under the direction of the State Executive Committee should be made to arouse the Republican masses, to encourage the formation of the party in prefect, county, district, and state, should go forth to the end that the certain clamour of the party is fulfilled out the dress and moth which today, in eating away the vitals of the party, Nobody knows better than the State Chairman and National Committee, but bend and unhelt, the good work will begin, and when it ends at the polls in November,1920, the party will be in the 2000 votes in Texas. It can be done.

THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION
WHAT THEY THINK OF IT.
One of the most interesting studies during these reconstruction days is that of the returning and the first fight of the war: "typical a statement, and as tenure, as we have seen in the message sent a chum by an aviator officer, leaving France for this side: 'Dear Pelot: Deluded, demobilized, delighted.' That nearly tells it, though not fully. A returning man was asked what he would take to France, and wouldn't take $10,000 for my experience; and I wouldn't give a dime to him. Most of them awave that it was an experience worth much more than it cost, and awave, with equal distinctions. Those who feared that universal militarism nation, with our young men eager for war, for war's sake, were needlessly alarmed. Indeed the men seem to have become the nation's best assurance that it need not fear, for another generation at least, any
The prize fight has considerably more of glamor to the ringside spectacle than the strenuous desperately to last out the ten rounds and collect his little purse. We never knew a professional fighter who would have been able to return the soldier will remain returned if he has his say about it. The American army today offers a number of candidates, than it ever did before. And this is true, to a greater degree. If the Kaiser had full control of Germany he would have slight chance of stirring his people into another war, but they were back in all his old-time power it would be enough to push ten million peasants into the hell of war. Otherwise they would
THE NEGRO FARMER
A dispatch from Corisiana telling of a gusher which makes Green Springfield an oil millionaire, says the old negro had already $500,000 as a result of oil and the careful farming of his 400 acres.
Says the correspondent at Corisiana:
Green is highly respected in this county—honest, a good farmer and a valued citizen.
There are few negro farmers who, through thrift or the discovery of wealthy beneath their tilled acres, become millionaires. There are many who are spoken of by their white neighbors as Green Springfield is described. The negro land-owner, in this generation almost always one who began as a laborer and approached land ownership through tenant farming, earns by good farming and good citizenship the respect of the neighborhood in which he is successful. He enjoys a pleasant relationship with white landowners. That relationship, entirely consistent with the attitude of the white population of the South toward the deepening negro, is puzzling to the Northerner who has grown up in the belief that constant unfriendliness and injustices toward the Southern negro is one of the manifestations of "race prejudice" of which the North hears much and which it misunderstands and denotes.
There are millions of acres of fertile land available to negroes in the south, but the challenge of a small farm practical for any well paid wage earner upon the easy payment plan, but there is no need to pay a wage. The prices of farm land in many sections the period and the relatively low will increase greatly the number of people who can become a farmer, is like the white man of other classes than the well to do who makes farming a fad in the country and followed the plow in his youth. Jocker Washington gave his race good advice when he declared that he would place for the Southern negro, but admonition sends to the soil from cities, to remain there as broadwave color. -Louisville Courier-Journal.
COST OF LIVING AND PRODUCING.
The people of the country endured high food prices during the war good-natured, but confident, expected to be relieved from the turn to normal condition—by which is meant price levels approximating the budget before the outbreak of the war.
That they are grievously disappointed that there has been, on man-made grounds, a significant cost of living is apparent enough. Scarcely a newspaper comes from the press but what reflects in some war newspapers is that those who pack and distribute pointment/indication and resentment generally prevailing in the exections of those who pack and distribute food. As a rule, prices are well up to the highest point reached during the war and even now the prices have been slight reductions, in others advances have occurred. And in the general discussion caused by existing problems, the high prices heard that high prices may be looked for as a regular thing.
It is not easy to complain to fail to take many things into consideration in criticising profiters. The high cost of one thing affects the cost of another. All prices are interrelated. The cost of medicine, clothing, plows, government, cigarettes, lumber and everything upon food prices, and vice versa.
Certainly rent does. If somebody were to ascertain just what proportion chants went into rent, it would be found probably that volume of business was paying as high rentals as any merchantss of the world. And yet if you inquired of the high rent-collecting company, you would find other and other offsets that leave him but a moderate profit from his invested money. There is probably a disposition to exert too high a profit along the chants and other rented inflation, with all great high
and ascending, and all costs trending upward, one can not safely depend upon the more moderate rate of profit arising from the more moderate rate of condition generally are stable. The public must remember that everything is manifest in the cost of food, of clothing, of part of it, the public schools, the churches, the luxuries of life, travel, light, water, pleasures, the剧院, repairs, illnesses, extravagance, waste, food, and the body could trace a loaf of bread back to the grain of wheat in the field and ascertain just how many individuals would eat it to him, directly and indirectly, it would astonish one to know just how many thousands had done something toward making that loaf of bread. The Post is not attempting to locate the responsibility of the high prices, the prices, would reveal that it is practically a universal responsibility. But that the fact presents a problem of far-reaching importance. Our cost of living is responsible for our wage levels and other conditions which make the cost of all forms of production in the United States ex-
A food problem confronts nearly all the great nations of the world. At the end of the century, Italy, England and even portions of the former Russian empire are dealing sturdy with the food problem. The problem is that prices do not force down prices not only because it is a measure of safety to prevent the spread of disease, but also because in the ability of the people to obtain enough for sustenance, but because in the great war the nation that can produce at the lowest cost will be the nation to regain its prosperity quicker, cheaper and food prices continue, with all other price levels following the course of the war. It is not likely to be grounded upon a foundation of economic stability and substantivity that will enable us to produce many lines, and even such advantages they are not fraught with trouble and difficulty. This comes by the competition in countries which have been able to return to normal conditions of production and
There are many proposals pending in Washington looking to a forcible capitol to come of them. The great controllers of staple products seem to have the situation well in hand. The government has been summers to have the vast stores of food and shoes the government accumulated for the now demobilized army has been built. But that these supplies must not be marked in such a way as to affect existing out of town food and cost of production problems are serious, and if they are not fraught with trouble and are not signs are misleading. Houston Post.
BRAINS, NOT BOMBS MUST
SOLVE THE RACE
PROBLEM IN CHICAGO
When a Negro family moves into a block in which the rest of the residents white, while one sets one base, the other sets the door, what is the result? A nasty job for the police, bitter feeling accumbent among both races, and a lack of respect for the rights implanted, but NOTHING in the way of curing the situation. Chicago, as everywhere, prohibits the police, you CANNOT REMOVE A SOCIAL SITUATION WITH DYNAMITE.
The anger of the white residents of the block is natural because the presence of the negro resident causes a dispute on the patio and a slump in home values.
No one likes to lose the accumulations in his home.
No one feels ever, is within his legal rights and from his viewpoint he is doing the meritorious thing of taking his family into a better house, giving his children "a better chance than he had." That is race progress. In the bombs, beating, baiting and killing of children, either side. "The course of human events" is not changed in that way.
There are about 100,000 Negroes in Chicago, leaders of the race estimate. The labor opportunities made for the Negro community have varied, and a war has caused a rush of negroes from the South. These are skilled, some of them have plantation ideas. They have earned wages, men and women and children, far in excess of what they earn. They have learned the ways of living. They cannot go back, they protect. That is not human nature. Negro leaders of education and business have learned the ways of living that the negro is here to hear. The $3,000,000 whites of Chicago have have a problem and a swerer in Chicago has as much "war" races made this problem and gave it to the world to solve. The 100,000 Negroes in Chicago have as much "war" races made this problem and gave it to the world to solve. The 100,000 Negroes in Chicago have as much "war" races made this problem and gave it to the world to solve. Through the Almighty made the races different and distinct, and interceded them to remain so. He put them all on the same earth. There must be a plan by which they can live on this earth.
It must be that there is in the minds of the thinkers and planners of both the United States and China white and colored men in Chicago enough judgment, and foresight, SOUND SENSE from which the plan was made. The race problem is a Chicago problem. It calls for solution, not violence for brains, not bombs; for the THINKI RS of both races GET TOGETHER, and solve this problem to the best interests of both white and colored men in human progress—Chicago American.

Dallas, Tex., July 21, 1919.
A Note of Discard.
I chanced to see in a leading white daily newspaper printed in a North Texas city, what purported to be a report of a speech made several days before the Battle of Lexington, at Lexington, Texas, before a picnic crowd of several thousand people, among whom were a number of soldiers. The wounded were intended as a rebuke to the recent special session of the Texas Legislature for its part in the recent suffrage battle, the members of the legislature of having trampled and spat upon that for which Southern soldiers fought and died. The soldiers were war veterans that "if some of the things that happened in Texas and in this country while you were fighting, your fight for liberty and democracy will have been in vain." He declared that a campaign should be inaugurated.
Mr. Henry read from the Texas Constitution the declaration that "all people, regardless of race, people, etc." "and yet," he said, "on the face of this Texas Constitution a Legislature that that the answer is, "You are not voters on the woman suffrage question defied those instructions, scorned the women suffrage question and the aid of New Jersey, New York and other States they would give Texas women suffrage anyhow." "No more discreditable a thing was ever done by a legislature. We represent the people of Texas who themselves up to act in a manner superior to the people what has become themselves." What has become of life-government and State's rights if a Legislature chooses and flout the will of the people? Every one of these men should be retired to private life and never have to work, for the people such a
Mr. Henry said that during the revolution and during the Civil War Women made sacrifices, but they did not because they helped the war end, but the war ended. But today we are told women should be allowed to vote because they helped the war end, and are going to elect Legislatures like the one we have at Austin now, I say God pity the State that has full women rights. He said that during the woman's suffrage debate at Austin he heard a woman say, "We have a gallery say, 'State's rights.' I am tired of State's rights. To hell with State's rights, it has got nothing to do with State's rights." Calls Colored Man "Nigger." "Then," said Mr. Henry, "I walked down the capitol grounds past that building, and I saw that today that says destroy State's rights, that says you shall not be allowed to vote on the question or if you want to be allowed to die or obeyed. I still believe in State rights. I still believe the Con. will not be allowed to not only what they believed we right but for what was absolutely and unqualified right. I still believe a white man is not harder a nigger and I am going to be
He appealed to the people to "have a clean up in Texas," to elect to the Legislature men who are genuinely interested in legal and constitutional bill allowing soldiers to vote, and then "fearing the result, the Governor called a special session, and there wasn't one of them who would vote." He also said it was important although it was different when they thought there would be an ocean between them and the soldiers. "Risks of the Legislature in attending to "bring woman suffrage in by the back door with the help of New Jersey and other States after the people of Texas went away" to it enter by the front door." If I had not read this speech in a reliable newspaper, I should have known that the people of Texas will have to say against white women voting, I leave it untouched. He delivered himself of orthodox republican doctrine, when he dealt realistically with the will of the people.
As for his reference to the "white man" being a little better than a black man, he was voicing the Henry of the worlds of the New York World, during the war, to a southern white man who was voicing the Henry of the World. The World said: "Whoever thinks that he is better than a colored man, he is on the Western front in France." It is late in the day of civilization to order or any American to give utterance to a person attributed to Mr. Henry. We are now a world power, having been born alive and baptized in blood, we are now a common place as the common citizen of a common country. As we, a year ago, were standing on the north side of no North, no south no white, no black in the effort to make the world safe for Democracy, let us not forget that we are necessary to preserve that Democracy. Of course, I know that there are men like Mr. Henry, who were born in the past and who always have and will provide us with all we will provide us seen fit to out the brittle threads of their unprofitable lives, they will move in the future, still live in the past.
But I also know that we are break
ing with the past, however, dear its memories, and we must measure to the end of the requirements. The world is standing on tip-toe, and we must stay at home, for upon internal justice will largely rest the value of her character and in
Mr. Henry, you have sounded a note of discord in which there is no suggestion of the tune: "Americans," the panned banter. "Let have peace!"
WACO. TEXAS.
Leaving Corsica I went to Waco, and spent three hours last Saturday, the 12th, looking in on the women of the Women of the A. M. E. Church. I saw a woman's meeting, but the men were not in attendance of motives. Beginning with President Bishop Jones, there were two others—Bishop Chapel and another where we were meeting. We were men containing the timber out of which bishops are made; I refer to the priest in the Church and Rev. Dr. J. John M. Vorick of Missions, Mississippi. And maybe there were others, but we were not. Preschers and many laymen were in evidence. There was Dr. J. W. R. Hanley of York. There was Dr. Arthur Stanley Jackson, whose journeys are country-wide, but who still manages to get to the women of the York. There was Lulu B. Kinchion, by the Phython Rev. Abingdon, Br. McDade, Pastor Fasson, Bowl and a member of others still in attendance all there lending light to the elements.
The names of many mighty women, the names of mortal were there and busy with their mouths, saying things which will make them immortal, singing songs which will make them all, I will not fret them by naming any. They are an asset, without which the great A. M. E. Church parable struggles to lift mankind.
ITASCA, TEXAS.
I arrived in Iscaa about an hour before sunset Saturday evening, July 12. I was invited there by Rev. F. D. Leal, the president of the Business League, S. L. Shaw and F. M. Grimes and secretaries. At night the meeting was held at the A. M. E. Church and a small audience came to support business enterprises now in tact and the establishing of others in order that the youth might be empowered to make a difference by their accomplishments. The colored people of Iscaa are realizing the importance of this step, as is attested to the places of business which they operate.

Before day Sunday morning, July 13, I was riding toward Terrell via Fort Worth. At 4:30 p.m., just 60 minutes after scheduled time, I was introduced by Mr. Wesley, the resident photographer, who had been the main spirit in arranging for my coming. I spoke to a splendid audience in the beautiful A. M. E. Church. Rev. Bell, pastor. Here as elsewhere I am trying to get the colored Texan to band himself together for something else beside church building. I am trying to get it into his head that man can be saved in heaven even if he wore rags on earth—that he can have a home in the other country as a gift—working single handed and alone, but if he is to have a home in this country and cut the ice which makes other men want to borrow his saw, that he must face the world armed with the weapons of this world. Sometime ago the business section of Terrell was burned, but better buildings are rising upon the ruins of the buildings which fire and flame devoured. Terrell is an enterprising spot and compared to its colored population is neck and neck and then some with Dallas.
IN FORT WORTH WITH THE MASONS
I arrived in Pantherville, Tuesday, July 24. I left the week with the Free and Accepted Bible, the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of New York, and the condensed report of the history and session which records a membership of over 10,000 souls. Masonry is marching.
DON'T LAUGH
If Economy is the road to Wealth,
more persons should walk therein.
A modest girl is Mabel Hunt,
She is a bachful lass;
They tell me she won't dress in front

OH!
"I have called for the rent," said the Landlord, when the Little Girl opened the door. "Mamma went out and forgot to leave the landlord. The little girl. "So you know, little girl not to leave it?" asked the Landlord. "Because she told me before she became a mother."
FACT
There'd be no coin left, I'm afraid.
Of cash there'd be a death.
If all of us were being paid
What we think we are worth.
SHE SAID THAT SHE WAS GONE
SHE SAID THAT SHE WAS GONE
A poor woman who had bought houses, the installment houses, found herself annoyed by the collecting agents, who came frequently to her door in pairs.
To outwit them and get a little reward, she said to Mary, a little tat: "Tell me what happened at not home." The much annoyed one then proceeded to another room in the house, just in time to escape the graze and approaching unwilling collector. The collector seeing the child only, began:
"Mary, where's mama?"
"Mary, mama gon!"
"Collector, then did you go?"
"Child—hen she shed you comine!"
"Collector—'How do you know?'

AN ANSWERED PRAYER.
Rev. D. George Lee, who, during his life time and pastorate in and around the known colored Baptist divines in the country, had many good stories to tell. One open a time the said Dr. Lee was pastoring a congregation in Maryland. In time the legislature had passed a law day morning soon after its passage, the familiar figure of the aged preacher was pastoring in the passenger car in his accustomed place, not noticing the passing of the law made necessary. The conductor came to take the ticket, he knowing Dr. Lee said, "What question the astonished minister asked the law, and then again, told him to leave the car.

Frank Keenan, America's greatest character actor comes to the screen at the Mammuth Theatre on Thursday in an adaptation of Edward Pople's Broadway stage success, "The Silver Girl." "One of the most vivid and compelling portraits of Keenan's whole career," is the manner in which several reviewers have characterized his impersonation of Jefferson Hunter, the son of a wealthy white clan and adding love for the character of the Supreme sacrifice.
The conceded perfection of this picture is due to the fact that Mr. Keanan, an adent through years of continuous service in stage-craft and screen-craft, best-designed playing the principal role in the story, personally directed it. The result is perfectly harmonious action and a sense of completeness which disarm criticism. The Western scenes give the feeling of the great outdoors and of the life of the moll and of treasure. It is a clean-cut story of the Hell-Rim Basil of Norvada; of strenuous roll and the love romance that grew between the Girl and the man who comes to her at a time she needs a friend to protect her in-
heritage.
That Anne Keppe, finally wealthy with her husband, should years for the life and pleasures of the great city was not to be wondred seal. She was young and beautiful; you were in her blood and she was a woman. She was a woman of a dream. Every woman will appreciate the big telling situation; for, while it was a great man climax, it still had to do with the woman—her love, her ambitions, her natural valuates, her gratitude, and, finally, to her own salvation.

Among the passengers is Fay Calvert, (Airline Pretty), a beautiful Kentucky girl, who is journeying to El Paso. Joe meets the girl informally and they become warm friends as the journey progresses. At a watering station, he leaps from the train to punish a burly man who, in a fit of rage, is beating a horse unmaccifully. A warm of Mexican ranch hands rush into the fray and all sent seeling by terrific blows from the giant Joe. Meantime the train pulls out and he, after purchasing the mattrusted horse, proceeds to El Paso.
Upon his arrival Jess reports to his firm, the head of which proves later to be Burr, the man that received the terrible punishment from him. In El Paso also he meets Fay Calvert and discovers that Burr is not only in league with Villa and his murderous Mexicans, but is also attempting to availde Fay out of the sole remains of her father's estate, consisting of a string of thornbred Kentucky race horses. Joe hearing that he will kill the man upon their next meeting, leaves the office.
Bob Edmunds, trainer of the Calvert stables, arrives at El Paso and reports to Pay that he has successfully delivered the horses to the Juarez track. Joe plans to outvict Burr and his gang. The men she each other up and there is just a little strain in their attitudes, occasioned by Bob through his observation of Pay's treat in the former ranchman.
Burr, discovering the identity of his buyer, swears vengeance and Joe is led into a trap in a Juarez gambling den, where a terrific encounter occurs. He is attacked by a room full of Mexicans and in the force struggle which enues, Joe, after being nearly overcome, uses his big punch and, with superhuman strength, beats down his seizing. Seizing Burr and lifting him high above his head, he hurls him into a mass of battered African.
Jess collects another outfit of cowboys and starts for the Juarez track where the races are to be held that day. On the way he is met by groups of natives begging him to turn back and flee with them before Villa's approach.
Smiling, he and his little band press on and arrive at the track where the owners of the valuable horses are in a panic. With Fay's fortune he purchases all the horses which the owners have given up as host with the approach of Villa.
The Mexicans are back and Joe and his horses successfully swim the Rio Grande to the American side where Fay is waiting for him and Bob. With the sale of the race horses realised the Big Chance has come for Joe, and Fay's fortune is restored to her.
Bob looks at Joe and Fay in their intimate conversation with a scowl, but Joe, realizing all the while that the two young people are deeply in love with one another, says: "Anyone can see that you are both dead in love. Love together new—I'll be little Cuid."

Dallas, Texas, July 24—Hand grenades, just like those hurried into the Hun lines by the American soldier, can be scoured as war solutions by the boys and girls, men and women of Dallas, can be made into savings banks and are being distributed locally by the Secretary National, Savings, and Dallas County Banks, and older banks are expected to come. When the Germans gave up, the United States and a large quantity of these grenades ready to send across The War Department had
no further need of these "weapons of war" so turned them over to the Savings Division of the Treasury Department, and formed into "weapons of peace."
It is a simple matter to obtain one of these grenade banks. The boy or girl obtains one from the store, and the girl saves. When enough money has been earned and saved to buy a $5 War Saving Stamp, the grenade becomes the property of the boy or girl. Adults may also obtain these grenade banks by saving money. The $5 War Saving Stamps of the 1919 issue. Only a limited of these grenades can be obtained for Dallas. This will be the only opportunity to earn a real weapon of war as a souvenir. When these grenades are gone, it will be more difficult to get more. Those interested should arrange today to get their grenades which can be obtained in Dallas and those which may order later.
Buy War Savings Stamps regularly.

The Cause
By L. Harper Leech
In Dallas Dispatch
Washington, July 22—The race riots here which have shocked the country have been brewing over the past week. One source of irritation to the white population has been the tacit support of many government employees who have invented their mavings in homes have had their value depreciated from 25 percent to 10 percent. Many government employees who have invented Negro families into white neighborhoods to "bear" the value of property which they buy instead of renting have moved in and mixing races in the departments. The insolence of Negro here has been increased during the war period by the crowding of female warriors and the inequality agitation and inflammatory Negro newspapers circulated in Washington. In months ago a Negro paper here urged all Negros to arm themselves as world wars were just beginning. This inflammatory appeal has led to equality resolution at the Paris peace conference and axiated told Negroes to look to Japan as their allies. The instantiate sale of pistols to Negroes yesterday by low allon shopkeepers was checked by the police.
Many innocent Negroes have been victims of the mob, but Washington has become the meccat for Negroes' victims because of codding
Returned soldiers, marines and sailors led the rioters in the attacks. They were infilmed by the Nazi regime and labor battalions in France.
