The report of the Bureau of Investigation to the Attorney General has been made by the bureau. It reads: "Since the first report was prepared there have occurred several race riots in the city of Omaha and Arkansas, and the more radical Negro publications have been quick to avail themselves of the sting of inflammatory sentiments, utterances in which some cases have reached the limit of open defiance." "Every infidication given in previous expressions of insubordination has been published, until at this time, there can no longer be any question of a well concerted movement among a class of Negro leaders of thought and action, to constitute themselves a deterrent source of radical opposition to the Government, and to the established rule of law and order.

The right to purchase property and live anywhere without molestation. 7. The right of Nerro Labor to organize. 8. The right of accused persons to "due process of law" and punish them. Far from opposing the government, Colored newspapers here are but advocating the rights guaranteed to them under the constitution of the United States. JUDGE FORT SPEAKS TO NEGRO ELKS.

He dwelled at length upon the reward of the Negro soldier who had been at all times loyal to the government, and who had been a white man and is the white man's best and most trusted friend. He could not believed that a Christian could be so untrue, as not to both recognize and generously reward the efforts of Negro loyalty and egro desist, and heroic deeds in which the pages of history of all times would be a blank without this one page of Negro loyalty and egro courage that stands out like stars and span the sky, the rising sun and the moon.

Evidence that Bohlevaheg agents are open in an effort to implant marshmilch sentiment in the minds of the foreign-born population of Dallas' came to light Monday morning when David Krause, alleged Bohlevaheg, was released on bond in the sum of $5,000 following a hearing before United States Commission on Immigration and National Security, here several days ago under Section 3 of the Expiation Act. His bond was made by George Clinton who is also acting as his attorney. The section of the espionage act under which the man was arrested is the one that was calculated to inspire bitter bitter against the government. It is claimed that Krause had been arrested in Yiddish, urging a revolution on the part exerting form of government in Yiddish, urging a revolution on the part exerting form of government in Yiddish, and have expressed themselves as opposed to any movement directed against the government. Krause, it is said came to America when a youth of nineteen, and several years ago he made his home in New York, and he talked about seven years. He denied that he is in any way connected with the foreign party, which is said be be bound a nation-wide boom plot planned for Christmas. Authorities here say that the foreign born population Dallas is under attack, and they take root here to any extent. It is said that alleged "Rede" and "Bolon" are being used in Dallas, through every effort will be made to check the spread of dangerous propaganda and all offenders will be dealt with within the same area are in the larger Eastern cities. RED PRINCIPLES AND MINDS OF BLACK MEN For several weeks the country has been stirred by revolutionists of the left who have called for a nationality who by ooct act against the American government on behalf of the United States in unrest to the country generally and have come together to our own accord to that their activism has faced courted some concern as to our stand as a race toward their activism. This fact is borne out by the history of America from as far back as Crispus Attucks and Boston Commons to the close of the late great War that Negroes never fail their government and its principles. It seems needless in the face of so much fact to be compelled by expressions which crop out day by day from the ranks of our critics to spend more time in telling them that such speculation on their part is waste of time. If those in control of this government could be as sure of those who wonder whether Negroes are listening to Revolutionary doctrine as they can be of Negro loyalty. "Red" sentiment and doctrine would die a natural death in America because it would have nothing upon which to feed. Negroes never have been and never will b. Revolutionaries in America. Our real American principles and our spirit of progress is too great to allow us ever to wish to change it for any other form of government of the United States. With us it always has been and always will be "America First" all else follows. Our striving to improve ourselves will so have we done, so we will continue to follow out our program of progress but our ultimate aim is better production, more thrift, bigger business enterprise, better homes, more education which results in greater career prospects, less labor, better school facilities, clean and beautiful living to furnish proof of the same principles which guide us. How many of your friends do you know who have had "money in the bank" for years and years who as yet have no income? And during that time others who have started small but who have been willing to give their small earnings a chance to grow are now counting their income in hundreds and their rating in thousands of dollars. There is no need for hesitation, neither is there any reason to think that a sound legitimate proposition will make one rich over night. The accumulation of property and the growth of incomes is just as slow but just as sure as the growth of a normal physical body which receives the proper amount of income. The real value of investment lies in the fact that the interest which accrues may be allowed to draw interest if let alone and thus the principal grows. It seems to us that these facts are worthy of careful consideration by all of us. We need more millionaires. We need more families whose means of subsistence is fundamentally secure and not entirely dependent upon the earning capacity of its members. Investment in sound projects will bring it to pass. Now-since it is hardly ever possible for Negroes in the South to purchase stock in concerns promoted by members of the other race, it stands to reason that they must invest among them such investment upon the earning capacity of its members. Investment in sound projects will bring it to pass. This company is growing and spreading and many times during the year, furnishes employment for each of the above named men beside a substantial dividend to those others who own stock in it. In like manner there is a large newspaper concern in Texas which beside furnishing a nominal dividend furnishes steady employment for lotnopers, presmen, bookbinders, stonographers, proofreaders and bookkeepers. It is needless to say that these people would not be able to follow such special lines in other than New Orleans. Now the whole of this article is calculated to show you what your dollars can do. There is not need to hesitate. Invest. Let your money work for you. Think in terms of income as well as salary and your material prosperity will be stabilized and secured upon a foundation which will grow firmer and with age. THE DAY NURSERY During the past few weeks a committee of our Dallas women have been busy in a campaign quietly carried on for the raising of funds for a movement among us which if furthered and supported will mean much in the civile life of Negroes in Dallas. Last week these same ladies opened to the public the Day Nursery for Negro babies in an auspicious manner. Of the many forward steps which our people have recently taken in this city no is so full of possibilities for development and concrete, every day help as this one is. Our mothers are called out by work who are compelled to leave their little ones may have taken care of here at small expense. Means are furnished and clean, sanitary recreation under the supervision of mothers and women of experience. In this large city especially, there has been a crying need for just such an institution and its beginning should mark the starting in Dallas among Negroes a well organized and complete program of Welfare Work for babies which would grow to such an extent that the thousands of our babies whose mothers are forced by financial conditions to leave them for long hours during the day, would be guaranteed a sanitary surrounding and healthful environment. Such a movement means many things in its final analysis. Mothers will benefit from it by learning how to care for their babies best. There are now too many sick lads whose physical condition may be traced to unhealthy surroundings and care during infancy and in many cases this same condition will persist. The health of the mothers of the mothers surrounding and healthful environment. It will result in an unconscious development in the cleanliness of many of our homes, for many mothers are not neater and cleaner in their homes because they have not been taught better. Gening in direct contact with a clean, bright, highly sanitary home where their children are kept will mean to many of them a desire to imitate that which is best in that home, and their own homes will benefit by it. But the greatest benefit to be derived from such a movement in the community at large which, if these children are properly cared for and safe guarded and taught even at that tender are the things that tend toward civic interest and moral responsibility, will have less care for them as juvenile problems. It is common knowledge that most of our youthful lawbreakers are those who have had little, if any, care while young. They are most receptive to such influences and the result is that when they have gotten to adolescence the community is forced to suffer from their ignorance and make of them examples of plity. This movement must grow. As the committee is able, and our people in Dallas will see to it that it is able, this work must be pushed and spread with systematic persistence till our Day Nurseries each day contain babies in every section in Dallas. They must cover Dallas even as our unfortunate bables do and act a safeguard to the masses against ignorance and haste. We must be able to teach them the importance in charge of this work must be willing to study. Get in touch with systems of this sort in the big cities of America. Study their methods and apply them here where possible. Study their method of funding and try as far as is possible to get this system upon a sound working basis. We take this means of asking for this committee the hearty support of the Negro citizenry of Dallas. If they are willing and eager to help our children in a systematic way and give them the opportunity to learn, we would indeed be blind to our own best interest if we failed to give and help in every way possible for on the same dirty, poorly fed, unfortunate little ones hangs the hope of our cause in America. When your boy asks you to allow him to work and make some honey don't refuse him. He can't start too soon in learning the lesson of thrift. He can't learn how to work and does not leave home to work he can earn by doing the extra things at home which will cause him to look upon himself as a weaker earner and prospective capitalist.

I saw the mountains stand, Silent wonderful and grand, Looking out across the air falling on the dome and spire; And I heard a low voice calling, Come up higher, come up higher, From the midst of Earth desire, From the midst of Earth desire, From the vain pain of self, From the attitude of self, From the attitude of self, "Higher." (Author Unidentified.) POLITICAL PATTER There is Power in Politics. Political preferment is a human instinct that cannot be eliminated. The world has been divided for five years because certain groups of people are clamoring for the assent of the people in the name of humanity, justice democracy and freedom. It has been a conflict in which our group has been divided between the name of patriotism, and in the problems of reconstruction we are facing. The American nation has two dominant parties of political action, Republican and Democratic. With their deeds, platforms and principles, we are not necessary for us to describe them. In the certain sections of the country, we are not necessary for us; in other sections, the Democrat party not only scorns us, but openly and boastingly defies us, advancing a political theory that, a dark skin is an eternal bar to political recognition and trumped up piece of toml-folly; but up to this hour, in the last twenty or more years, we have been American that gave it the name of the Grand Old Party. Despite this well known fact, the majority of our people are white, viciously accepted its calling. The white Republic of Texas has announced that the time has come to drop us, and that in fact, we should be out of politics anyway. Certain non-violent organizations, and are making it an objective of their political wagon. In a number of communities there are effective organizations, and they are, no more From now, until November, 1920, the attention of the American people will be directed towards the selection of a President of the United States of America, the greatest office in the world. The concern of dur 15,000,000 group will be: WHO IS THE BEST MAN FOR THE PLACE, SO FAR AS WE ARE CONCERNED. It is a subject vital to our well being, our liberty, our pursuit of happiness, our very lives, that of our children and a prosperity. GOD KNOWS WE HAVE BEEN BUNCOED A PLENTY. The siren voice of promise has lured our trusting people into many pathways. We have stepped into many a camouflaged trap, and met with political disaster. We have been the willing tools of the unscrupulous disaster. We have been the willing tools of the unscrupulous politicians within and without the group, and we have been sold, times without number, for less than the proverbial “mess of pottage.” —Houston Observer. There Have Been Noted Gatherings at Dallas this Month. During the McKinley administration white Republicans from the south imported it to get rid of the Negro factor to the growth of the party. It was a lie as old as its conception. The administration heeded it. All Negro office holders in the south, were cut out except a few —VIDA subordinates. A few by importing and compromising landed; most as "handy men," men of whom died, whether of grief of disappointment or warfare. The Negroes refused to go to the polls and support an obstructive entity, the Swampscott Indians dwindled down from 16,700 to 13,000. McDonald (Goose Neck) was the neck of the state who did not seek office. And yet the "Lillies" would gladly have embraced the opportunity of handling the state's debt to lie the price of his liberty—But not for gold or silver, nor kings' coins. The state had no constitution. Slaughter alone hated petal, his not repeated declaration that, "his only ambition was to see the success of the party so when others were not successful," to victors, he like the "stormy petrel" he skipped over the boisterous waves, heeding not the death that threaten THAT'S THE IDEA—DO IT NOW. The Savannah Tribune makes this suggestion: Negroes must be careful of organization and the most they must insist on equitable representation in every division and grade of authority, governing them. If not, they are lost. The Negro laborer, earning big money, must save it. He must live as nearly as possible down at his old standard, until out of his income some cash, begun some purchase of something imperishable and lasting, for this saving or investment. He must do it now. Must commence systematically and methodically to take out a request for this saving or investment. Must learn not to desire and have every desire, because he is able to buy it. Must learn to take a pride in the ownership so taken in his own manhood, in his life, in numbered with those who have bank accounts. "the day that knows him now," the day of high wages and wider opportunities, "may soon know that he will be able to mention all change up and present an entirely new complexion, before long. When that time arrives Negro must be ready to meet its demands. We must operate businesses to supply needs. We must provide opportunities for our children. We must build factories and market businesses. We must build banks and exchanges, the hotels and hotels. We must have money. We must invest in money-making companies and enterprises, so as to create profits and income. Do it now. SOME "DONTS" THAT WILL HELP EVERYBODY. Don't use vile language in public places. Don't act discourteous to other people in public places. Don't allow yourself to be drawn into armed brutality. Don't use liberty, as a license to do as you please.

Don't throw garbage in the back yard or alley or keep dirty front yards. Don't attempt to make an express wagon of street cars. Don't forget street car, conductors are bound by rules of the car company which the law compels them to. Don't oppose police officers in the discharge of their duty, you should be prepared to assist them in keeping the peace. THE MIRROR OF PUBLIC OPINION In an interesting report to the bishop and members of the Atlantic conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, which appears elsewhere upon this page, a conference committee deplores the nation-wide tendency of the times toward an appraisal of Negro character according to standards set by the commission of criminals among the colored people. Unfortunately, the world is prone to measure the progress of the race and the status of its relationship toward the white race, not by the work of its better element, but by the criminal record of the bad. The work of the Negro people is to judge the Negro people as a whole by the bad things they do instead of by their efforts in behalf of better citizenship. When a Negro commits a crime—resulting, it may be, in a riot—that crime is widely exploited and reports of it to the authorities. The better element of the race—vastly in the majority—may build churches, schools, establish thrifty, peaceful, law-abiding, decemcy-respecting farm communities and in many ways move upward on the ladder of good citizenship, as they are often doing. The little is said about it. But if one Negro brute commits a crime, even in those very communities where the race as a whole is making splendid progress, the world is put on notice, and the ninety-nine who are law-respecting citizens, and who are trying to maintain the status of the race, are made to suffer. This form of injustice is being gradually renamed. Meanwhile, the advice of this conference committee to the race is well worth its careful consideration. The sentiment expressed in this memoir merits the approval not only of the committee to whom it is specially addressed, but the spirit of the document deserves and will receive the commendation of the white race. The report is very largely based upon the theory that the south is the natural home of the Negro, and that he prefers to stay here if given an opportunity to live in peace and security. It attributes the fact that so many thousands of Negroes have gone to the North to the discontent arising out of a relationship between the races that would not exist if there should be mutual co-operation based upon the observance of law and order, the punishment of any man, black or white, who offends against the race, and just treatment to all under the law. That is a platform which should meet the approval of all. —Atlanta Constitution. Full Citizenship. There are certain plain issues before us as an integral part of the American people, entitled to all the constitutional rights and privileges American citizens which must be clearly perceived, frankly discussed, and understood. We must also that will guarantee permanent and amicable adjustment. That ground is the full recognition of our constitutional rights as American citizens. Until our group in every community is accorded these constitutional rights there will be dissatisfaction, set forth criticism. It is folly to blank out the rights of American citizens by speaking the truth plainly. We will get no where in bringing in the true democracy which we should all desire if we permit ourselves to be deceived this point. Any group of American citizens that is satisfied with less than their full constitutional rights is not worthy of American citizenship. We must also fact that the new consciousness of our people must be interpreted. This, then, is the sole issue: Are we American citizens? If this be answered in the affirmative, as it must be, it follows, naturally, that as intelligent, self-respecting, progressive citizens of this republic, we cannot maintain our self-respect and integrity, nor can we curtailment of any of our rights of citizenship unapplicable to all other citizens. There needs to be absolute clear-headedness upon this issue. This is the issue upon which there must be no surrender, no compromise. This is the issue against the "gimn corn" ordinance of every description in every section of the country, not because we are seeking "social intermingling" but civic and civil rights; and because such ordances are clearly, obviously, and designedly an invasion and curtailment of our constitutional rights as we are. That we should understand this and that we should understand this and it is important that we should strive to get the thoughtful and fair-minded people of the dominant group to understand it, not by losing our temper or by calling names or by threats and inflammatory names but by being so clever and convincing argument. The same those who are unwilling to be convinced, we admit, is a difficult one; but it is not an impossible one. Let us see to it that we clearly understand the issue involved in contending for our constitutional rights. We must also see that we become parties to no plan, no matter how plausible or advantageous it may appear, that means a surrender of such rights. Be content with nothing less than being a 100 per cent American citizen, discharging cheerfully and gladly all the duties that such citizenship and proving your worthy of enjoying all the p. liases and rights of the man. Full citizenship. Nothing less. let us be worthy of it and then stand uncompromisingly for it. —Monit. American Legion is Ameri-au. If there was any doubt as to the course the American Legion would take respecting the discharged Negro soldiers that doubt was remoled last week at the First National Convention of the Legion held at Minneapolis. Ever since the organization of the Legion St. Louis, there have been efforts made, chiefly by southerners, to draw a color line in the organization. The Colored men of the South have been met with all kinds of excuses and evasions when they have attempted to become a part of the Legion. The Colored men thought they could control the color question in the southern states, notwithstanding the fact the Legion is a national body, and not sectional. The question had to rest until the First National Convention when the Negro soldiers there threw out to the satisfaction of the Colored delegates. There was nothing strange about the effort made by the southern white men to keep Negroes out of the League. They acted upon the time-worn basis of prejudice, and evidently thought their ground tenable. But there was something strange about some of the remarks of the southern delegates, who, after admitting that they had actually refused the Colored brother, protested that "southern gentlemen" are willing to "play fair." It is very evident that the "hair play" was born in the Committee room, where the gentlemen in office were sitting. The question was satisfactorily settled there, it would be taken to the floor of the convention and forgeout in the open. The "southern gentlemen" did not care for the open fight for democracy, and they yielded to the contention in Committee. Whether the southern delegates were sincere in their opposition to the Colored soldiers is questioned by the Committee. They yielded in Committee rather than appear on the floor on open convention indicates that they had no intentions of going further than making a fight in Committee. This is probably what their southern constituency expected of them, hoping to achieve their ends in secret, if possible, but willing to yield rather than be recorded publicly to a brother American. The Legion is entitled to its name. It is an American body evidently controlled by Americans. British View of Our Group. Writing from Washington under date of September 30, the correspondent of the London Times, considers the relation between white and blacks in the United States. His article presents another race riot, this time in Omaha, accentuates the fact that the United States is still from finding a solution of what is when all is said and done the most difficult, though not immediately the most important, of her social problems. A good deal has been said in previous articles, but the proper Americanization of citizens of all n blood. Things like the steel strike, which would not have come about had it not been for the inflammability of the foreign laborers in the mills, show that the movement is a much needed one. The real problem there is no such ultimate cure as yet visible. The descendants of the slaves of Colonial days and of the first era of independence, are already as much Americanized as they can be. One of the lessons of the present is that the farther upwards they move, the social scheme, the greater their interest and the greater the prejudice "the whites with whom they compete." It is the custom of the Negro to live in well defined quarters of the cities. Even in Washington, one finds whole streets given up to Colored people, tucked away in the midst of the best residential quarter. As the Negro crowds North the old Colored district becomes unable to hold him; he slops out in adjoining streets. His presence in them is resented, and there is bad blood. This bad blood is aggravated by 'the white workman's jealousy of his competitor. A woman against a white woman, or something of that sort, and the fat is in the fire. The war has also hardened the feeling of the Negro against the white. He was sent in large numbers to France. He found in France no particular color line drawn against (Continued on page 5.)

NAVY LIBRARY WORTH VISIT Apartment In States, War and Navy Building at Washington Should Appeal to Tourists. The navy library, in the state, war and navy building, is a lovely place to soak up atmosphere. Like the build- ldg itself, it is thirty-three years old. When it was built England, France, Spain and Italy presented the marbles of porphyry, sienna and malachite with which the walls are paneled. Mexico sent the pieces of only which encrust the gallery. The round stone over the door came from the ruins of Pompeii. The connoisseur in marble who visits Washington will enjoy a call here. In the center of the large room, lined with shelves of weighty tomes on naval matters, there is a large and important green-topped table. Around this table set the strategic board of the Spanish-American war. Here also the naval advisory board for the great war made their secret plans and experiments. Edison, Maxim, Miller and many others conferred over it, with the windows carefully darkened and a guard before the door. There is a quaint side to the library, too. A little white-haired lady can be seen any time, flitting about the shelves of dark, heavy books, or cutting and pasting busily in her corner by the window. This is Miss Mason, daughter of a former secretary of the navy. She has been in the library 26 years. If you happen in near noon she may give you a cup of tea on one corner of her desk. And of all charming places to have an unexpected cup of tea, with a sweet little lady, this quiet noir among the books is recommended. TWO TRAVELERS CAME BACK According to Army Captain, Mules Returned From That Dim and Undiscovered Shore. The regimental morning report is a fearsome document. On it appear all the changes in status of men and animals for each preceding 24 hours. It is not unusual to see that two males fell ill one night. The veterinarian gave his victory of hopeless, and the captain of the *sly* company accordingly made the proper entry on the morning report: "Two dogs accompany the captain under the under care of the grizzled old stub sergeant the mules recovered and next morning the captain found them alive and kicking. Now, the dogs are not under care, can never be erased, which made the situation embarrassing for the captain. However, he was a man of resource, and the next days report came to him: "Two mutes, from dead to duty." Shrub May Prove Valuable. Shrub May Prove Valuable. "We were years before the war, the time when we applied for permission to experiment with the plant life on a great semi-arid ranch in central Mexico. Their research was standing that they furnish a complete report of their findings. The two chemists worked effectively, and chiefly on a squat, old oak tree, which they reported to possess medicinal properties. Suddenly they disappeared; what they had discovered was never known. Now, after exertion of their research, the shrub which they have found in drier parts of New Mexico, chemists of the United States department of agriculture have another alkaloid to add to the list which already includes morphine, quinine and cocaine. Its chemical and pharmaceutical properties are now unimproved—popular Mechanica Magnolia.

An enlisted engineer said in our hearing yesterday that in Italy the workers are giving two hours of their time to train the new machines to realize that increased production means ultimately increased工资. In Germany there are signs of the same spirit and the following story admirably illustrates the industrial situation: Two miners were discussing the minimum wages. "Say, the bill, said the first," the miner replied. "The bill spat. "The minimum wage!." That what we gets for 'gold' down; 'an' if we wants to make any more brass, we need to make it for 'london.

HOME-MADE ROLL-UP PINCASE Holder That Can Be Easily and Quickly Constructed; Keeps Pins in Good Condition. The ordinary pheniscion is not a very satisfactory article for holding safety-pins, long glass-basket or other kinds of fancy pins. A case of the nature illustrated can be easily and quickly made, and in it all kinds of conditions are possible under the condition. It is merely composed of a piece of strong silk, lined with soft Roll-Up Pincase. washethair and bound at the edge with narrow ribbon, and at the top ribbons are sewn on. It can be made in any size and it rolls up from the edge of the surface shown in the sketch. When the case is open any particular kind of pin can be selected in a moment, and kept in this case they will not become dull and dusty, as they do sometimes when exposed to water. This case could be carried out with other materials if preferred, and it would be equally useful made of art sage and bound with narrow ribbon and bound in a channel or any other soft material.

LIVED UP TO HER MOTTO Indianapolis Woman Had Made a Rule and Intended to Let Nothing Stand in the Way. She is one of Indianapolis' most successful business women—naturally too, one of its best-hatted women. And she is quite as much as do her business associates. One afternoon she had promised them a party in the country and she was the fireplace of their old country home. For two days it rained and on that afternoon it was raining too. She was wearing a white coat, face her faces all full of disappointment. But she smiled at them. "Get your waterproofs," she commanded. "Why, are we going?" they asked in amusement. "Yes, we are going," courses. "the minuteed their tone, 'My car can get over worse roads than that.'" "They rushed away after their coat and the woman next her began to proclaim, 'I'll be the one to something that isn't necessary,' she began. "It is something that is necessary," the other interrupted, "it's the recreation I planned and my recreation is as necessary as my work. It keeps me on my mounts. You know that from my work—whether I will let it from my work—whether I will keep me away from my play. That's the matto I've adapted for life, and I know that one, too."—Indiana News. COWS KNEW THEIR MISTRESS Woman Who Had Lost Pets Had No Trouble at all in Proving Ownership of Them. A happy reunion took place at the union stockyard, Herser Island, Pittsburg, an exchange declares, hate the men who were rescued by the Fox Chase road, O'Hara town rescued her four stews cows, awaiting their doom at the hands of the exorcist. During a heavy rainstorm the other afternoon the animals were stolen from the pasture and driven to the cows. They were traced the cows, but among the hundreds of other "bosses" were unable to identify them. Mrs. Riley was sent to a pen a stumped among the animals for a time threatened serious consequences. When it had subsided, the animals and moosed soft expressions were unnized to see four of the cows rushing toward the woman. Brushing their beards against her shoulder, the animals zoned and moosed soft expressions, grasping each around the neck in stumping their gloss coat and putting them. When their midnight left the big stock pen, the cows followed her as obediently as well trained dogs, and when last seen were wending their heads over the Fox Chase road with their mistress. Valuable New Metal A new invention, called conducting aluminium, which is said to be creating a profound impression, has been made by Dr. George Giltin, the most famous expert in the aluminium trade in Switzerland, in a recent report. This new metal is produced by putting the ordinary aluminium through a special patented process by which a requisite amount of aluminium is applied to capacities as bronze, copper and brass without changing its specific weight. It is said that the price of the new fractal aluminium will be lower than so that, even at the pre-ware prices of other metals, it will be able, by reason of its smaller specified weight, to compete with copper and brass very favorably. That the new metal is a conductor will make it mainly in demand in the electrical trade. Valuable Tool Chest War created many ingenious devices, developed in the time of stress and turbulence, to keep the front, but capable of adaptation to the needs of peaceful industrial industries. One of these is a mobile tool chest, the tool chest of a firefighting lighthouse. It ressembles a field artillery calisson, in which are packed implem ents and supplies in great variety of tools and equipment. Building contractors, mumbers, road builders and others who require a contract, are packed in the articles packed in the box are shovels, matsheets, mullets,胶壳 hammers, pliers, wrenches, extra hardening tools, and wire ties, besides many others. Naughty Arthur David and Arthur shared a bed together, but did not get along well in doing so, for nearly every night there was some disturbance between them.

It irks him to return to the inequalities of the home he went to fight for, to the "Jim Crow" laws of the Southern States that provide for him separate railway carriages and to the various schemes, like the "Grandfather Clause," whereby some states confine the suffrage to those whose grandparents were free, in order to be enfranchised. That was constitutionally given him after the Civil War. It irks him the more imasch as he is told by his organ in the Press that the American High School was the French to treat him as he was treated. Proud of his new found sense of discipline, he is not deaf to propaganda against allowing himself to be exploited by the white race in times of crisis and then, when the crisis was over, he is treated in a position of inferiority. For many years past there have been two theories about the education of the American Negro. One idea has been to concentrate upon technical education, to bring him up to manual trades, and to endure a life of hard work and hard work. The other idea has been to treat him as a white man, to give him a higher education. The later policy has had considerable success. There have been Negroes high in the Federal service. There are good Colored students, and there are many thousands of Negroes, probably rich enough to own their own motors and that sort of thing. In New York, for instance, there is a most prosperous Colored community, living together in good streets and houses, with its own theatre and all the other trappings of civilization. But there is a reverse side to the shield. The intellectual Negro seems to take rather kindly to Socialism and organized agitation. Thus, one finds, besides the National Association of Negroes, people which has many white members, a number of purely Colored organizations like the League for Democracy, an organization of Colored soldiers affair with grievances against the Negroes in France, the Universal Negro Improvement Association, whose program is to awaken class consciousness among the Negroes here and in Africa, and to knit together all the Colored races of the world, the National Association for the Organization of Labor Union among Negroes the Hamitic League of the World, the People of the World, and so on. Nearly all such association are extreme and run by young Colored, socialists, often aided and abetted by professional white extremists of the type that causes so much trouble among the alien proletariat. Some of the most famous groups like the Messenger of the New York the Crisis of the same city or the Boston Guardian, whose editor, W. M. Trotter, a Harvard graduate, after a fruitless visit to the peace conference, lately told the senate committee on foreign relations to the United States, that whites did not mend their ways. Even the Industrial Workers of the World have been getting recruits among the Negroes in the South, a fact which made the American Federation of Teachers a tenace Colored unions, much to the disgust of the southerners. To this the white reply, as has been seen from the news of recent months, has too often been moli force. "Mob protection is the only protection of the white man's home," cried the other day the paper of a former senator of the United States, published in Mississippi in the course of a war, and on account of bravest" in the state to organize, "since there is no doubt that hell will be to pay in this country in the near future." But, enough has been said to show how discontent, merging often into imperfection and sometimes criminal misbehavior on the one side, and how discontent and other are exacerbating a problem already difficult. The process is deployed by the vast majority of sober whites and by many good, thoughtful Negroes. It is quite probable that the better sense of the nation will be less resentful to fear; but for the moment it is not the least troublesome feature of a general situation teeming with other problems of race amalgamation. We can afford to fear, but we can afford to overlook. There can be little doubt that the extremists would like to extend their propaganda to our possessions. We can afford to be agitators in New York and elsewhere are. Indeed, reported to be West Indians.

As one who has always had high faith in your courage and sense of justice and who has admired the admirable bravery of those pressed in regard to the Negro. I am appealing to you to commute to life imprisonment the sentence of your death. From testimony obtained by two persons actually in the ground I am convinced that the interest of the black community in commutation, in order that an irreparable wrong may not be done, should be taken, in order that the subject is obtained. As a parish American I should hate to have the fainn of Arkansas subject even if you have grave injustice, at a time when more than ever the relations of white and black men should be on a basis of equality. You have it in your power to perform a national service at this crisis, and you will not atrisk from doing it. OPEN LETTER TO. NEGROES OF SOCIETY OF FRIENDS. To our Odd Fellow_Citizens of the Colored Race, and Dear Friends of the Church, we salute you in the Love of Jesus Christ our Lord! This love expresses itself between human beings and between man and man, of a Fatherhood of God that does not allow a brotherhood of man, George Fox, the brotherhood of man, the Ligious Society of Friends, was drawn toward members of your race in a feeling of this brotherhood, and wrote to you, "I feel feeling for himself and for his associates, and in the date in Philadelphia, but now in years ago, Anthony Bennett opened his home for a school for Colored people, and demonstrated to his wounded brothers, the capacity of the race for education. Previous to the Civil War, during the war, many members of our Religious Society have devoted themselves and their hearts to your education and training for So our present interest in you and our desire for your best welfare have led us to measure of firsthand experience.

Four years of the most destructive animals brought forth face to face to the utter futility of physical force to advance the welfare of human beings. If the world is to be saved—your fate is to be saved—you must be by the triumph or spiritual uplift over the despotism of fear and hate, the great leader of your race, the late President Obama, and the saying, publicly and privately, "War settles nothing. When war is over we must move forward with the motion processes of healing and reconstruction." Your whole history—very particularly the fifty years of our nation's history—has been a wonderful record of that method of reconstruction which had saved zareth. Even upon the cross He could not "other than" they know what they do. As we plead with you in brotherhood, we have been thoroughly Christian attitude, in being ready to join you in every reasonable protest against injustice. We do this, because we want your rights, but also because we want our beloved country to realize the unfortunateness alone exalt a nation." We are known the sting of injustice, through our two hundred and fifty years of In the state world struggle, many of our members have been imprisoned for mismanagement.

We have been imprisoned, therefore, more perhaps than at any previous time in our history, the call is for us all to stand together, work together, even in suffering, bravery and our hopes for a better world.

S COFIELD, Secretary DR. AND MME. W. A. JOHNSON, PRES. AND VICE. RAGE RELATION IN VIRGINIA Hampton, Va., Dec. 6-What do the Colored educational and community service leaders of Virginia think about the value of co-operation, the improvement of the schools, the development of their ability of improving rural life, and the importance of racial good will? What do the Colored people want the Colored to do in their community this critical period of National and World-wide un-rest? How can we serve to the Colored people Virginia—and also to the white people—From the Nero Organization Society and Negro Teachers' Association of Virginia, delivered in January 2000, to 2,000 representative citizens by John M. Gandy, president of the Petersburg Normal School and the Negro Organization Society, gave a clear-cut answer to many questions which white and Colored people are facing. Spirit of Co-operation. "The merit of the Neo to adversary in the face of new problems has not yet been conclusively proven to be true in the great crisis. Never before in its history has it been confronted with so many and intricate problems that the mental, moral, and relational powerfulness of the race has not been tested. "There has been a resettable waste in money and effort, due to the lack of successful co-operation. The method of advances today under the spell of group action. We learn to co-operate, we learn to overcome the inertia of the difference in problems that require the action of all men, and we learn to avoid attacking questions, principles, problems, and difficulties that stand in the way of our success. We learn to mass our power and strength we are doomed to an utter failure in these days' combination of skills, and we make our answer that we should mass our strength for the advancement of the kingdom and adding the kingdom of darkness. School Attendance. "According to the report of the Vienna Education Center, two-thirds of the Colored children of school age are enrolled in the rate of enrollment to the total Colored population, or to the total Colored school population, the enrollment in was in 1890. Of the total Colored pupils, only 6 percent attended the average daily attendance at the cent. On every day that the schools are open more than one out of every day, 60 percent are in school in absent. The Colored children that lose more than one out of school are in absent. Pcorly-Trained Teachers. Poorly-trained teachers. "At present there are about three thousand Colored teachers in the State. It is stimulated by the Vir- ginai Survey Commission that four thousand are needed to provide adequate teaching advantages to the teachers, and that a shortage of at least a thousand teachers. The report says: "Colored teachers as a body have received more training, in non-city schools more than one-third have received only an education of two grades of high-school work and more than three-fourths have never received an education of more than 3 grades of high-school work; and more than three-fourths have never received an education of more than 3 grades of a four-year high school course. Only one-fifth have ever received an education in training equivalent to one or more years of college or normal school." Inadequate School Terms. "The majority of the rural schools are still housed in one-room buildings with little arrangements for ventilation. Children are crowded into these shacks far beyond their ceilings and health and making effective school work impossible. In some of the cities the buildings are old, inadequate, lighted, and are veritable culture media of disease germs. The length of the term of non-city schools, the Virginia Survey Commission says: 'In 1917-18 non-city schools for Colored schools was six months or less, in sixteen six months. In fifty-five counties the average length of the term for Colored schools was six months or less, in wide averages were five months and in one country 32 months. So in non-city schools (Colored) individually examined, the school term was five months or less. For explanation for the small percentage of the Colored school population enrolled in school, the poor school district can be found, for the more part, in poor housing conditions, poor teaching advantages, and in the Educational Campaigns. "We wish to make the following suggestions: (1) that a season be set aside every year during the school session, preferably in the early part of the school year, in which a Virginia educational campaign be waged through the public press, the pulpit and mass meetings for the enlightenment of the public on the fundamental need of the education of the young; (2) that the Negro Teachers Association of Virginia and the Negro Organization Society memorialize the State Legislature in the interest of increased facilities for the training of Colored teachers of increased pay for teachers, and of increased length of terms for the rural districts; (3) that a season each year be set aside in which the claims of the teaching profession be presented to the student body in all of the secondary schools and colleges of the State; and (4) that, in all we do, we work in full harmony with, and with the full knowledge of, the heads of our public school system, helping them to realize their ambition for the Colored children of our Commonwealth. Farming Demand Attention. **Training Definitions** *Attention.* "For race development in the States, training must be assumed towards the farm. We must prove equal to the problems on the farm, and we must be discarded and new methods applied to the cultivation of the land. Intelligence and thought must begin to be developed on the farm. The race on the farm should more readily receive the instructions of the farm demonstration agents and seek training." PRICE $2 PER YEAR JAN 1, 1920 THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS TEXAS, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1910 farming from whatever source it can be had. More emphasis should be placed upon what is consumed at home, upon diversified crops, and upon land improvement. There should be an ever increasing interest in land buying and farm extension. The education of the children of farmers should be so directed as to maintain and deepen their interest in farm life. Better Health for All. “We explore the people to begin to inform themselves on the question of health, to free themselves of insanitary surroundings; to let as much fresh air into their homes and public meeting-places as possible; to take account of their food as to what it is and how it is prepared; to get enough sleep; and so to demean themselves as to make the continuance and standard of the social dis- What Negroes Want. "What do the Colored people in Virginia want? We want to make it clear in the outset that we do not want, as is generally thought by many, that the Colored people are perfectly pleased and satisfied with our own society; with Colored boys marrying Colored girls; with Colored girls marrying African girls in our houses; with the building up of our own social institutions, such as churches, schools, and the like, and the sense of inappropriate social situations as are white people and are just as averse to forcing ourselves upon people who do not desire our "First: We want equal accommodations in public carriers. We now have to accept third class accommodations on the railroad and street cars the quarters assigned to us are in danger. We have to keep them kept. No provision is made, on cars for sleeping-car and dhishee-car, for few of the railroad stations are provisions made for feeding the Colored traveling public. The stations at most stations are really kept and on some of the trains there is only on toilet for both men and women." Second: The Colored people want justice in the proper distribution of advantages in their living quarters in both the city and country. Wherever we live in large numbers general, ally the streets are not paved; the section is not adequately lighted and policed; a sewerage is not provided; and there is a negligence and indifference in the general improvements. Third: We want equality of wages in the economic life of the State. We feel keenly in the justice of discrimination in the way for the same work done. If a Colored bricklayer does the same work just as satisfactorily as a white man, he, in all justice, deserves the same pay. This holds true in domestic service in the trades on the farm in the profession of teaching, and everywhere else. There is a glaring discrimination between the pay for white and Colored teachers holding the same grade of certificate. In all justice this should be corrected. Fourth: We want the same provisions made for the education of our children as are made for the white children, that justice be directed in the distribution of the public education funds; that equal high school law be made as binding upon Colored children as upon white children; and that the State provided opportunities of college training for Colored youth.

The Savings Division of the Treasury Department Urges Upon Everyone In the Eleventh Federal Reserve District to Observe Savage—Clean Up Conservation Week, November 23rd to 29th, Inclusive. The word "junk" as applied to a stable, merchantable community, is by no means a household word in the South, and there are millions of people in this section who have been taught the serious thought of the opportunity that is their collecting and self-serving financial return simply sufficient to merit their real attention. What attention has been given this, has been given to the people who are even accidental. And, even today, with no less than Fifty Million Dollar worth of Junk going to waste in the United States, people are unmindful of the real obligation that is theirs to gather up and dispose of it. You see that it is sold; and the money invested—the Treasury Department hopes—in War Savings and Thrift November 23rd to 29th inclusive has been designated by the Governors of the four states of the Eleventh Reserve District and by the Mayor's by official proclamation as Salvage Clean-Up Conservation week. During this week, millions of dollars worth of copper, brass, babbit, tin foil, old auto tires, scrap rubber of every kind, mixed rags of all kinds, old rope and string, bones, bottles, in fact, hundreds of articles that by the average individual has been considered worthless, possessing real, tangible cash value, deserve to be given consideration. This is a practical period of time, and it is time for the American people to get off the practical period of time, and it is time for the American people to get off the 'high horse' of spending and sober up. The American public has been and is on a spending debauch, absolutely drunk with spending, giving no thought at all to saving, but throwing money away with a reckless hand, seemingly with no thought of the future and its needs. The Treasury Department has isis- sistant a booklet for tree and general district leaders and glad to send to this anyone wishing it. It contains a list of the Junk trees in the district, a list of the triet, besides other valuable information relative to junk. The Treasury Department has however, neither a mother tree nor a father tree, nor savers sors this very practical movement, a movement quite in line with its general plan of Saving and of Conser- sor. The Waste Material Dealers Association of Texas is co-operating fully with the Waste Management Conservation measure; while the Fire Marshals Association of Texas, at its recent meeting in Dallas, by resolution of the government's plan, as outlined in the present campaign. The Government is leading their pupils in this work; is depending upon the civic organizations in each town to give it active support; is helping them to assist their pupils in this work; is depending upon the civic organizations in each town to give it active support; is helping them to assist by their sympathy and co-operation; in fact, is looking to the general support from every organization in Conservation, in Saving and in Cleaning up town. This is of importance to the youngest child in a community and of the most representative business man in that same community. At a time like this when one half of the world is hungry, one half of the world is unhealthy, one half unbecoming in any of us to waste or to refuse to assist the Government in any measure of Conservation. Everyone is urged to give this Campaign a chance to succeed. Don't think you are too big to do this. Don't think you have too much money, and that you should call. It deserves your support, and the Treasury Department certainly expects everyone to give it a liberal and generous call. Gather up your Junk; in your closets, your harness, your sheds, your old trunks, your garages. Gather it up from the old hiding places. Sell it in the market.

Constantinople, Dec. 6. - The high cost of living is hampering the Turkish households—especially with the reduced size of their homes—who formerly were rich also are. The size of their homes has withstanding the Koran's authorization of four wives to a man, the proportion of unmarried women is said to be more than one wife too expensive to maintain. Only a few in population is not beginning to be made up by polyamory. It is estimated there are more than 100 women in the interior maidens are so numerous that women meaning natives have offered them to gifts to American and foreign dignitaries. One angle of the situation is the creation of a race of bachelor maids who are followers of nationalism. The women are anxious for peace, hoping it may make marriage less "WE ARE ALL ALIKE." In the midst of the base, unjust, un-American talk about race secrecy started in Chicago, the statements of a member of an oppressed race, sounds like voice of fairness in the world. A great h叭叭aballo was raised on the sale by Rabbit Hirsch of his former ward, to a Colored man. It was conceived as a portrait to wait the sending of a reporter of the Chicago Tribune to interview the seller. Rabbit Hirsch, the famous Jewish leader, was asked by the reporter: "Are your views on race secrecy?" Rabbit Hirsch replied: "From my heart, we are all Jewish. The people are just as good as whites. I would rather have a good black neighbor than a white."

"SHARK MONROE" IS FINE PICTURE FOR WILLIAM S. HART. Artercraft Star Has Splendid Role As Savage Skipper Who Is Purified by Love. There is little doubt that the popular verdict on William S. Hart's splendid new photoplay, "Shark Monroe," which is to be displayed at the Mammoth Theatre next Saturday, will acclaim it one of the finest pictures in which he has as yet been seen. In this production Mr. Hart discards the chaps of the frontiersman and is seen as a typical skipper of a sealing schooner on the Alaskan coast. Monroe is a savage man whose reputation for cruelty extends. He meets a beautiful young woman in an strange circus performance and her dissipated brother to Alaska. He learns to love her with passionate fervor and when she goes to Balsam City and falls into the hands of a notorious trafficker in Monroe follows and saves her in one of the most impressive situations ever disclosed in any motion picture. Monroe is the centre of many highly interesting scenes of this powerful story. How he wins the girl's love by her bravery, after he had slain the man who sought to dishonor her, is told in scenes that are vibrant with thrills and heart appeal. Mr. Hart directed this photoplay under the guidance of his friend, a painter and a pable. His leading woman is Katherine MacDonald one of the most charming of screen actresses, Joe Singleton, Berthold Sprotte, George McDaniel and others. More than a year was spent in producing "The Liberator." The actual cash outlay involved in the picture would cover the total cost of the average serials on the market today. Sciamengo & Pastrone, who produced "The Liberator" for Mr. Harry Raver, have never spared time or expense to outdo other producers. They made the first film spectacle, "The Fall of Troy," nine years ago, and are famous for the invention of the new effects and illusions which other producers have so eagerly adopted in subsequent films. "The Liberator" is not a war picture, although "Maciste" is always in conflict of one kind or another. It bristles with action, satisfies with its thrills, stunts and startling situations, supplies many a laugh when best needed; there is romance and mystery a-plenty, and "Maciste" is at his best from main title to trailer. Massive interior settings erected at a cost staggering to the average producer lend dignity and beauty to the atmosphere of the story. In short, "The Liberator" is the biggest boat of a star, whose creator, Gabrielle d'Amour, poet-voet, and saviour of Italy's morale, unite in happy combination to form the Year's Greatest Motion Picture. - "THE LIBERATOR" and continued on Sunday for 10 weeks. Also "CHAS. RAY" in a Western Drama—"TENNESSEE HILLS" and least but not last "LITTLE SAMBO" in one of his best comedies, Sunday, we open at 1 p. m. THE STORY IN BRIEF. Young Lieutenant Harrison is deep in an affair with the wife of his major, Blanche Marston. His mother, grieving because of it, persuades Jim Craig, one of the most popular men at the Kansas army post where they are stationed, to attempt to break up the liaison. At the Marston home Craig tries to reason with Blanche, and Harrison, entering at this moment, flies into a jealous eye to captain there. A fight ensues in which Craig knocks Harrison and threatens him with a revolver, and leaves when Blanche orders him out of the house. The major, who has become suspicious of his wife and the young officer, enters as she is trying to revive him and shoots him dead. Desperately the woman asserts her innocence of any wrongdoing, and does it so cleverly that her husband believes her. Then she seeks Craig and pretending to him that Harrison was killed in the fight with Craig, prevails upon the latter to run away in order to save a dead man's memory and a life. After Craig's flight, Blanche persuades her husband to declare Craig guilty of Harrison's murder; he yields only when she threatens suicide if he refuses. The war department, seeking Craig, loses his trail in New York and the case is placed in the hands of Madge Summers, a clever young woman who specializes in getting deserts back to the army through moral sassion, but who accepts a criminal case. By providing what he service she is told that Craig is wanted only for desertion. Madge locates Craig in an opium den and despite the fact that he is only a derlift Madge sees in him the man he used to be and loves him. Determined, however, to do her duty, she notifies the authorities of his whereabouts; then, she accepts the arrival of the murderer, she beks him to escape before the arrival of the convict. Madge, refuses, thinking he has been betrayed by her, and on a desperate chance she goes to the army post hoping to find evidence that will clear him. Major Marston, weary of his dishonor, and finally convinced of the guilt of his wife, confesses the murder of Harrison and kills the woman and himself, while Madge and Craig, re-untied, face the happiness of a life together.
