The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star Court Renders Important Decision Whites Cannot Continue Practice of Sequestering All Corporation Revenues Insofar as it provides that all the revenues arising from taxes on corporations shall go to the support of white graded schools to the exclusion of the Colored, Section 3588a, Kentucky Statutes, was held unconstitutional and void, by the court of appeals in an opinion by Judge Sampson, at Frankfort, Ky., May 24, the whole court sitting. This was decided in the case of the trustees of the Mayfield Colored graded school district, against the white district for its proportionate share of the corporation taxes, which had been denied by the lower courts. The amount involved is $ 2,797 43. The court said : "The white race under the rule sequestering all revenues from the property of white people to the support of white schools—a very questionable right—has decidedly the best of the situation," as it is cutting the colored schools off from any share of the corporation taxes Such a rule is an "open invasion of the Bill of Rights" and violated the constitutional direction for the support of education. The court went on to say that ignorance is a menace to the republican form of government, and the extension of free opportunities for education to both races is essential as a safeguard. Corporations are neither white or black, and taxes from them must be apportioned between white and colored schools on a per capita basis of the number of pupils. State Convention to Meet At Cheyenne on Tuesday Tuesday at Cheyenne, Wyo the state convention of the Colored Women's clubs of Colorado and jurisdiction, will convene at the A.M.E. church Never before has the state meeting presented so many hard problems for solution as will be presented at this meeting, when, especially, the war in all its phases as it vitally touches the life and heart of the Negro, together with the discussion of America's greatest evils—lynching and prejudice as its effects the Negro today. Every loyal and truehearted woman will send their very best, and make many sacrifices that the convention be a grand and glorious success. The final plans to entertain the great national convention of Colored Women's Clubs will be made and plans suggested to make the state condition self sustaining. The big hearted people of Cheyenne are working as never before to make this a record breaker, during which the true spirit of thoro Western The hospitality will be shown to to all, fortunate enough to at tend. The slogan has been and is now—"On to Cheyenne FEDERAL ANTI- LYNCHING BILL "If the bill is to be passed there is a tremendous amount of work to be done by all persons interested in its passage," says the June Crisis. "There is probably nothing that creates a deeper impression than petitions, telegrams and letters, if they come from all over the country. Arrangements are now in contemplation for a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee. It is strongly urged that every person in the United States fovoring the bill write or telegraph his or her Congressman urging that he support and vote for the bill. Certainly every Colored person should do this, for it affects him vitally, though the question far transcends race interests. "For these reasons send a letter or telegram now; have your lodge, church do the same and in this way have an avalance of messages pour into Congress to accomplish this purpose." AMERICAN NEGRO SOLDIERS IN THE TRENCHES That our Nergo troops are holding a portion of the line west of Verdun, in conjunction with French forces, has been announced.

DENVER. COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 1918 A TRIBUTE TO NEGRO SOLDIERS General Pershing draws no color line among heroes. He knew and said that the Negro troops who fought and fell in Mexico, when led into ambush by Villa, fought and died like brave men. And he was so impressed by the conduct of two sentries, members of a colored regiment at the front in France, that he thought it worth while to mention their brave act in detail in a report a day or so ago, tho he seldom refers to individual cases in his brief "communiques." A notable instance of bravery and devotion was shown, he says, by Private Henry Johnson and Private Roberts, while on sentry duty before daylight. They were some some distance apart when they were attacked by a party of twenty Germans in two groups The sentries fought bravely in hand to hand encounters, one resorting finally to a bolo knife when his gun became useless. They continued fight ing after being wounded and, says the General, should be given credit for preventing by their bravery the capture of any of our men. There is nothing new or surprizing in this manifestation of courage. It is in the history of all our wars. that Negroes have made good soldiers. It was so in the Civil war and in the Philippine war They can be counted on to do toeir part in this war. It is this American spirit, this readiness to put patriotism above personalities and above the sense of race injury and to do their part as citizens and soldiers, that will go far to modify unreasonable antagonism and to give the colored people a better "place in the sun." They cannot help to fight the battles of their country without winning appreciation and gratitude from all honest white men. And all testimony goes to show that they will and do fight bravely and well.—Denver Times. PECULIAR FACTS ABOUT SIGHT For One Thing, the Pupil of the Eye Adjusts itself to the Light Surrounding It. An observant chauffeur, passing an automobile with glaring headlights, noted that objects at the side of the road which had been distinctly visible dropped out of sight when the bright lights were thrown upon them. Since one can see better in a little light than in no light, he wondered, why can one not see better in bright light than in moderate light? The answer is, paradoxically, that the less light there is the better one sees, for the brighter the object the less efficient is the eyesight. If, after we have been in darkness, we suddenly turn on a bright light and look at our eyes in the mirror, we can see the pupil of the eye rapidly growing smaller. If we reduce the light the pupil dilates again. What happens is the same as in the camera when we adjust the shutter to the intensity of the light. The colored iris of the eye corresponds to the shutter. It consists chiefly of a muscle which, as the light increases, is stimulated to contract, thus drawing the curtain and shutting out some of the superfluous light. It usually takes a few seconds for this adjustment to take place. Thus when we emerge from darkness into light we Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Blakey have purchased several properties in the neighborhood of Orden Street and 57th Ave. 40,000 MORE NEGROES TO ARMS Washington, June 5.—Forty thousand more men were summoned for general military service today to entrain between June 20 and 25 from the following states: Alabama, 3000 to Camp Sheridan' Arkansas, 3000 to Camp Pike.

The men called today, all negroes, bring the total men summoned to the colors in June to more than three hundred thousand. NO QUESTION OF HIS LOYALTY It is a waste of money, we be lieve, for the War Department to be sending secret agents among Colored citizens to spy upon them. There is no denying the fact that there is deep dissatisfaction among them over their lot and part in the Republic. But they may be counted on to go as far as the man who goes farthest in preserving the Republic. In fact no ace among this confusion of races can be counted on to go to the end as can that race bearing the burnished livery of the sun. There are professional Socialists among the colored people as among all other people. There are hair brained glib tongued malcontents, too, among colored people as among all other people. But there it no need to send spies amon colored people to detect them. Their seed falls upon stony and barren ground There is nothing of the Bolsheviki among black folk. Far too few have been the years that the have enjoyed the sweets of law and order and property for them to turn back or turn aside from their goal now. They all want the Republic not to be shortened but lengthened. They want not less democracy but full democracy and forever. They would have nothing of treason and anarchy. We are glad that there is a growing recognition of this throut the country The Elizabeth Daily Journal confirms this as follows: The Difference In Georgia A preliminary trial held at Cordele, Ga., last week before Justice Malone. placed Jim Ed Bridges. a young grocer behind the bars charged with a statutory offense, and at the same time revealed developments in the Negro section that for counseling of some of the cooler heads among the Negroes, there might have been bloodshed. This time the case involved the reverse situation to that which has prompted lynchings in this state. Said to be under the influence of liquor, Bridges is charged with driving away, at the point of a gun, a colored girl's male companion, and then took her into a house, occupied by the family of a hard working, respected Negro, who were driven out. With the house shut up and threats of shooting against anyone entering. Bridges is said to dared the Negroes to offer violence. Chief of the Police was called, the house forced open, when Bridges at tempted to make a hasty retreat out the back way. According to information coming out at the trial, there were guns and pistols among the Negroes, also cooler heads that kept almost perfect be havior until an officer could be had. The case against Bridges was conducted by Solitor J. B. Wall. "Of all the German intrigues in various parts of the world designated to stir up trouble for enemies and neutrals, the one addressed to Negroes in the United States seems to have been the greatest failure. Has one colored man anywhere responded to it? It is necessary at times to inquire about the loyalty of some of our white Americans—men and women, white of of skin, but often black of heart. Even men and women high in the public life of the country, are often under suspicion. Senators have been charged with entertaining suspicious thoughts It is never necessary to inquire about the loyalty of the men and women of our Negro population. There is no mask of loyalty on the face of a black citizen. The blood that flows out of the hearts of our Negro citizens and tingles in their tips is red and warm and true. A black skin is a badge of patriotism today for a* that and that. Subscribe for the Star.

WHEAT SAVING STILL VITAL TO VICTORY Colorado has been saving wheat—saving it with all of her western vigor and determination to feed American soldiers and the starving people of the allies. But the need has not been met. The time has not some when conservation can be thrown aside; when loyal Americans can eat as much, as often, and what they want. A report, which may be caused by misunderstanding or may be the outgrowth of vicious propaganda, has been receiving a certain credence of late to the effect that the need of further conservation is past. "Such a report is absolutely unfounded," declared Robert J. Grant, executive manager of the Colorado food administration, "and anyone who relinquishes his efforts to save wheat in every way possible is helping his country's enemy." Food Administrator Herbert Hoover, sensing the seriousness of the situation should Americans in any great number stop saving flour, has sent to every state the following telegram: "Reports have been circulated that food administration officials state further wheat conservation not necessary. No statement of the character has ever been issued. The actual position is that our supply until harvest allows home consumption of approximately one-third normal if we are to maintain allied supplies. The actual position is that in farmer's hands and storage we had at the beginning of May seventy-five million bushels of wheat to carry us for approximately three months or with an early harvest perhaps two weeks shorter. Our normal consumption for three months would be one hundred and twenty million bushels, not allowing allies anything. HOOVER. SUBSTITUTE PRICES HERE MEET AVERAGE With housewives and consumers all over the state questioning the legitimacy of the prices of wheat substitutes, the United States Food Administration for Colorado has recently made the announcement that the cost of wheat flour here is lower than in any state in the Union except Oregon, and that the average prices of the substitute grains is practically level with the prices of all the other states. Substitute grains are not raised in Colorado to any great extent and their cost with freight and other charges added is bound to make the price of products from these grains relatively higher than the price of wheat. Considerable hope is being felt in food administration offices throughout the state that with increased manufacture and improved methods the price of substitutes will gradually be lowered until a normal price has been established. SUGAR BOWL IS BANISHED The old time-honored sugar bowl has disappeared from Colorado tables. Facing an intensive canning and storage season which will probably be unequaled in the history of the country, together with a reduced best acreage, the U. S. Food Administration for Colorado waved its food control wand and sugar-bowlless meals were established. According to J. N. Bundick, chairman of the sugar division of the food administration, action of this nature was necessary to insure a sufficient supply of sugar to meet the increased demand of the canning season. "In the Colorado sugar storehouses there is a vast amount of sugar, but that amount must be available for shipping when demands come and when it is possible to obtain cars. Beet sugar production of the United States during the coming year will be approximately 500,000,000 pounds less than last; Cuban sugar supply, owing to numerous causes among which are transportation, political unrest and general war conditions is rapidly decreasing. And sugar conservation now is vital," stated Bundick. The new sugar regulations allow consumers to have two teaspoonsful or two lumps of sugar to one cup of tea, coffee or ice tea, and two teaspoonsful of sugar to each additional service of fruits, cereals or so forth. No sugar is allowed for pie pudges or any food to which sugar has already been added. For violation of the substitute rule and the rule against the placing of sugar bowls upon the tables, Reinhard Mueller, owner of the Vienna Bakery and Restaurant, was ordered to close his shop for one week by the U. S. Food Administration. Mueller was granted a hearing before the food administration executive, Robert J. Grant. His only defense was that he did not understand the regulations. The penalty imposed upon Mueller was the first of its kind since the organization of the food administration and followed a recent order from Washington against the infliction of money fines upon violators.

Its strangest feature is a queer, three-storied tower of wood and glass, but mostly glass, which rises from the main buildings. Each story of the tower is smaller than the 'one beneath it', and each had its own peculiar use in the lifetime of Lord Lucas' father, the brilliant essayist, Auberon Herbert. The lowest and largest story was fitted with a carpenter's bench, at which he worked. The second story was furnished with only a table and a chair; and here he used to read and study. On the top of this story, before the third was added, there used to be a comfortable revolving chair, in which Herbert would sit for hours at a time, turning it as he wished to any point of the glorious New Forest landscape. Publisher's Jest Costly. An old London firm of booksellers rejoiced in a five-barreled appellation —Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme and Brown. A book published in 1825 by this firm, recently picked up at auction in New York city, brings to memory this story: Archibald Constable, the famous publisher of Edinburgh, was fond of a joke. Mr. Longman of the above-mentioned firm once visited Constable's palatial home. During conversation he remarked: What swans you have in your pond there? "Swans!" cried Constable; "they are only oneeze, man. There are just five of them, if you please to observe, and their names are Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme and Brown." This skit is said to have cost Constable a fat contract with Longman.—Outlook Proverbs of Little Merit.

Denver, Colo. AUTO HAD HUMBLE BEGINNING First "Horseless Carriage" Would Be Regarded With Broad Smile by the Drivers of Today. According to Ernest Saut, a French journalist, who has made a study of the history of the automobile, more than six centuries ago a man endeavored to build a "horseless carriage." As early as the thirteenth century a Parisian carriage maker worked upon it, and while not successful, his ideas were seized upon by noted scientists of the day, and much study was devoted to a fruitless research into the mechanical arts for machinery that would drive a vehicle by a series of springs and cords wound up like the works of a clock. In 1789 a French mechanic, Joseph Cugnot, succeeded in propelling by steam a small wooden car of his own design, and developed it to a point where it drew a piece of artillery a mile in twenty minutes. This car burned wood and was able to carry enough fuel to keep it in motion for more than an hour. The unwieldy machine wrecked itself, however, and Cugnot lost heart in his work. A few years ago France erected a statue to him as the inventor of the horseless vehicle. After the failure of numerous experiments in England and France shortly after the appearance of Cugnot's invention, the horseless vehicle appeared to have been a perpetual motion proposition until 1830, when new discoveries in steam machinery directed renewed attention to it. From 1830 to 1880 much progress was made, and some promising results were obtained. The invention of the four-cycle gasoline engine by the Frenchman, Lenoir, paved the way for the successful automobile.

FREE FURNITURE, FEAST AND HONEYMOON TRIP GO TO FIRST Here's a chance for some one couple to furnish a home, spend a honeymoon practically without cost, and act as hosts at a wedding dinner without a cant of expense. For, to the first white couple married in June, The Express will give all these things. June starts one second after midnight Friday and—but turn to Page Four, your prospective brides and grooms. And you ministers too. There's an announcement there well worth your while—an announcement which may start you on the road to life-long happiness. In consequence of this article on the front page, Eugene Neil wrote as follows: May 30, 1918. The Denver Express Sirs: I am a recent subscriber to your paper, a very recent one, and I herewith wish to terminate my subscription, to take affect immediately. A paper with so little regard for its subscribers as to advertise, on its front page, a discriminating contest such as you advertise is not worthy to receive a colored person's money Every Negro who takes this paper giving up their hard cash should read this and be wise. The Star desires to announce that we have received a very strong letter from Grand Junction. We hope to use it later. Also we have received matter from Wm. G. May, which we intend to use at our first convenience. The Denver Star received a long letter in explanation as to who received the bag of vegetable seeds intended for Dr. W. A. Jones, Ben Holley, E. Danforth and Ell Burrell; the letter from Rev. O. J. M. McLeod put the blame upon one George North of Chapelton, whom he says is the only one responsible or the seeds; he also states that George North knows who received and divided the seeds up and where the seeds are now. So we ask Mr. North if he will be kind enough to tell us, if he will, to whom did he give the seeds and how he happened to give the seeds to them? We would like to know because we go to Chapelton this summer we should be glad to recognize the seeds we intended for someone else. STATE PRESIDENT'S CALL.

Your community made an excellent record. The people of the state of Colorado have given over $1,900,000. The people of the states in the Mountain Division have given approximately $3,000,000. The loyal citizens of Colorado have once more demonstrated by their universal and generous response to appeal of the American Red Cross for funds that they have faith and confidence in the "Army of Mercy" behind our boys in France or wherever they go. The great success of the Second War Fund Drive could not have been accomplished without the splendid news stories and advertising space so generously donated by your newspaper and the other newspapers of Colorado. Permit me to personally thank you, as well as your local Red Cross Committee and subscribers to the Second War Fund, for the generous and wonderful co-operation so cheerfully given. Very truly yours, L. C. PHIPPS, Chairman. I am addressing you in this manner because I feel that a full and fair explanation of some certain matters pertaining to our church should be made to you by me. This is the only method that I know of to reach you with a statement in full without interference. The Baptist Church Directory of 1917, a recognized authority of the Baptist Church, page 27, under the section of Duties of Officers, makes the following observation: "Trustees are elected where they may be necessary, legally to hold property, and administer its financial affairs, when so required by the laws of the State." "The trustees are really, a standing committee of the church appointed for a specific purpose. They are therefore entirely under the direction of the church, and not separate from, nor independent of the body. They cannot hold, use, nor dispose of the property placed in their hands, except as instructed by the church. Whatever technical rights or privileges, civil laws, or the decisions of courts may give them, they are bound by every principle of honor, morality and religion strictly to perform the wishes and obey the instructions of the church to which they are appointed." PASTOR CALLS MEETING. But the 14th day of April, after a Sunday nineteeze boards were called together and met in the barn, owing to the lateness of the hour, with me meet Monday noon, the next day. Thereupon in our pastor's study, two deacons and four mission. Our pastor then stated that he had been hunting to $125.00; that he was not able to be was the church's duty to pay for such repairs to the service of the church. Then I, your church, knowing that the car was his own personal treasurer to were his personal affairs, couldreasurer elected to this place of confidence and every principle of honor, morality and religion and obey the instruction of the church, should manner without your approval or consent. Pastor and members of the board that we advocate or gasoline monthly allowance of $8.33 with per month until the same was paid for or that we accept after a brief discussion. Then our pastor $100.00 and that he would give an entertainment to reimburse the treasury. This motion was and. Soon afterwards the chairman excused me to I shall agree to," whereupon in a short excused himself from the meeting. There to state that in this meeting no agreementtees as to whether the money should be paid any event. On or about the 14th day of April, after a Sunday night service, the deacon and trustee boards were called together and met in the pastor's study; but soon adjourned, owing to the lateness of the hour, without transacting any business, to meet Monday noon, the next day. Thereupon at noon the following day, in our pastor's study, two deacons and four trustees met at the adjourned session. Our pastor then stated that he had had repairs made on his car amounting to $125.00; that he was not able to bear this expense and thought it was the church's duty to pay for such repairs as he was using the car for the service of the church. Then I, your church treasurer of General Funds, knowing that the car was his own personal property and all expenses attached thereto were his personal affairs, could not see, where nor how, your treasurer elected to this place of confidence and responsibility and bound by every principle of honor, morality and religion, strictly to perform the wishes and obey the instruction of the church, should pay out your funds in such a manner without your approval or consent. Therefore I suggested to our pastor and members of the board that we advance him $100.00 on his salary or gasoline monthly allowance of $8.33 with permission to pay back $8.33 per month until the same was paid for or that we grant him the privilege of refunding the borrowed $100.00 on his salary at any time. This he refused to accept after a brief discussion. Then our pastor suggested that we give him $100.00 and that he would give an entertainment during the month of May to reimburse the treasury. This motion was put but did not receive a second. Soon afterwards the chairman excused himself saying: 'Anything you do I shall agree to,' whereupon in a short time thereafter, your treasurer excused himself from the meeting. Here I desire to state that in this meeting no agreement was reached among the trustees as to whether the money should be paid or how it was to be paid in any event. DEMANDS TREASURER'S RESIGNATION. I knowning that your treasurer of the general fund treasury had the treasurer of the mission fund, a general fund, at the same time ordered you to check for $100.00 payable to himself for the repayment your treasurer refused to do, after being in the board not to issue the check until he had a your bonded treasurer well know if he issued such circumstances that he would disregard it for morality and confidence imposed in him illegally responsible to you for your funds. When called a meeting of the boards for the folly of the afternoon before the meeting, your treasurer could not be present at the meeting that night for pastor informed me that he had fully made resignation and that he expected me to resign. Right your treasurer was informed by members that had requested your treasurer's resignation. Your treasurer called a meeting of the member boards which he could in touch with and those who attended the meeting advised me not so by the church. Soon thereafter our pastor for a business meeting. At this meeting our treasurer with disobeying the orders of the business issue him a check for $100.00 for repairs on our treasurer with being disagreeable and cause. Your treasurer denied both charges, in the m with disobeying the laws of the church by and actually receiving the same from the building for his personal use which money had not time the charge was made. Our pastor admey from the building fund, but said it was advice his salary. Your treasurer stated to the church now nothing of this transaction and asked our who attended the meeting. So far, he has not has not been able to find a member of the this transaction, except the secretary who co-000 from the building fund. As it is not cuo keep any minutes of their meetings, there definitely getting the accurate facts and details by verbal statement. As a consequence of the son was made to dismiss both the deacon and instead of dismissing, that we reorganize the board, seconded and carried. After this, our appoint a committee to select names to be petition to the deacon and trustee boards two weeks after matters, the meeting adjourned. Our pastor knowing that your treasurer of the general fund did not have $100.00 in the treasury had the treasurer of the mission fund, issue a check payable to the general fund, at the same time ordered your treasurer to issue him a check for $100.00 payable to himself for the repairs on his automobile, which your treasurer refused to do, after being instructed by the chairman of the board not to issue the check until he had had a talk with our pastor. Your bonded treasurer well know if he issued the check for $100.00 under such circumstances that he would disregard and violate the principle of honor and morality and confidence imposed in him, besides being personally and legally responsible to you for your funds. Our pastor then called a meeting of the boards for the following Tuesday. On Tuesday the afternoon before the meeting, your treasurer told the pastor that he could not be present at the meeting that night. After brief conversation our pastor informed me that he had fully made up his mind to request my resignation and that he expected me to resign. After the meeting Tuesday night your treasurer was informed by members of the trustee board that they had requested your treasurer's resignation to which I paid no attention. Later on your treasurer called a meeting of the members of the deacon and trustee boards which he could get in touch with and a few members, for advice. Those who attended the meeting advised me not to resign until requested to do so by the church. Soon thereafter our pastor called the church together for a business meeting. At this meeting our pastor openly charged your treasurer with disobeying the orders of the board of trustees by refusing to issue him a check for $100.00 for repairs on his automobile, also charging your treasurer with being disagreeable and causing disturbance on the board. Your treasurer denied both charges, in the meantime, charging the pastor with disobeying the laws of the church by ordering $100.00 paid to him and actually receiving the same from the building fund, during the year of 1917 for his personal use which money had not been paid back up to the time the charge was made. Our pastor admitted that he received the money from the building fund, but said it was advanced to him by the board on his salary. Your treasurer stated to the church that the board of trustees knew nothing of this transaction and asked our pastor to name the members who attended the meeting. So far, he has not done so and your treasurer has not been able to find a member of the board who knew anything of this transaction, except the secretary who countersigned the check for $100.00 from the building fund. As it is not customary for the trustee board to keep any minutes of their meetings, therefore, there is no other means of definitely getting the accurate facts and details of their transactions except by verbal statement. As a consequence of these charges being made, the motion was made to dismiss both the deacon and trustee boards, our pastor added instead of dismissing, that we reorganize the boards, which motion was made, seconded and carried. After this, our pastor was given authority to appoint a committee to select names to be presented to the church for election to the deacon and trustee boards two weeks later. After attending to other matters, the meeting adjourned.

Short discussion of the subject, I told the board position as treasurer of the building fund of the books. After a short discussion, the me Two weeks later the meeting was called for the election of officers and names, presented as a body, for each respective board and were elected, as a whole, over the objection of the minority who desired individual election of each member of the board. All members of the trustee board were re-elected except your treasurer, one who opposed our pastor's policy, and one who resigned voluntarily. After the transaction of other business the meeting adjourned. EX-TREASURER DEFENDING HIMSELF OF THE CHARGE OF BEING DISAGREEABLE. In the month of January, 1918, the church, which you know, elected me treasurer of the building fund, also the general fund. A few days after the election, I was in the pastor's study and in a conversation with him he informed me that the secretary would keep the books and write all checks of the building fund. In reply to him I said in reality the secretary is also treasurer of the building fund. The conversation ended by our pastor saying we will take the matter up at the next board meeting. At the regular monthly meeting of the board of trustees I brought the question up. Our pastor expressed himself to the board the same as he did to me personally a few days previous to this meeting. After a short discussion of the subject, I told the board that I would not accept the position as treasurer of the building fund if I was denied possession of the books. After a short discussion, the meeting adjourned. YOUR TREASURER RESIGNS. ing day, I handed our pastor my resignation from gave February 1st, 1918.

Shortly afterwards, I sent the following letter to our pastor, also a copy to our Senior Deacon, chairman of the trustee board, secretary and church clerk, which read as follows: "Referring to my resignation from the trustee board of the Zion Baptist Church, I feel it my duty to explain why I resigned my position as treasurer. The only reason is that I am denied the privilege of keeping the check book and record book of your building fund in my position. After carefully considering the probability of the old record book and check book being valuable, I proposed opening a new record book, also getting a new check book for your treasurer's use which was also objected to. I can not serve you as treasurer with efficiency unless the check book and record book of your building fund are in my possession. I will gladly serve you as treasurer provided you furnish me with a check book and record book—old or new ones for your building fund. I wish it to be clearly understood that I do not object to joint signature of your secretary or any other member or members of our church. Any statement other than this one, is not authorized by me. After our pastor received my letter, he called me into his study, urged me to remain on the board, but would not consent to turn the books over to me after being elected treasurer. YOUR TREASURER'S COMPROMISE FOR PEACE. I told our pastor I would relinquish all claim upon the treasurership of the building fund in favor of the secretary and countersign checks only, or that I would take full charge as treasurer of the building fund and the secretary countersign and make annual reports. To this our pastor is satisfied. He called the board of trustees together for the purpose of deciding who should have possession of the building fund books. Our pastor and the board of trustees think it is wisdom to let the secretary hold the books. Meeting adjourned, all satisfied. Your ex-treasurer writes this so you may answer this question—That if he, your treasurer, was so disagreeable and caused disturbance on the board, why did they not let him go when they had his resignation in hand, which was effective February 1st, 1918? Thus your ex-treasurer has attempted to briefly and concisely state the actual important transactions pertaining to the cause of my dismissal from Carpenter and Contractor New and Repair Work.

The Huns in America are constantly after us. Negro has the only regiment without a hyphen. Yet in some parts of the U. S. he is denied the ballot.

A CALL FOR COLORADO WORKERS FOR THE RED CROSS, A very excellent representation of some of the best colored families of Denver attended the classes in the Gauze Rooms of the Museum building, corner of Fourteenth and Sherman. Members of different churches are enlisted. The volunteer spirit is fine. The work is of the best, but the members are not what we would like to see. At first the colored class numbered about eighteen faithful workers notwithstanding many demands and interruptions. But from now on the needs for wounded American boys will be much greater "over there," and let every loyal colored American woman come for one afternoon Friday of the week, or send some friend or substitute to take her place. The class assembles at 1 o'clock on Fridays at the Museum unit for instruction and work. The uniform of white apron and cap can be procured there at present. As we know and regret to say, some of the colored population of America have been tempted and tampered with by Prussian propaganda; but let Denver be freed from such criticism through a loyal and regular interest by the women, as well as the men, to promote the activities and plans of the country, among which there is none more appealing than the work at the Red Cross gauze rooms. Among those who still come and who do excellent work are the following: FOOD WILL WIN THE WAR Mrs. Cora E. Robinson, 1421 Gilpin; Mrs. Goldie Hughes, 522 30th street; Mrs. Nellie Irby, 415 29th street; Mrs. Nellie Lander, 1845 Marion street; Mrs. E. C. Shipp, 315 Vine street; Mrs. Gullion, formerly of Memphis, Tenn., and Mrs. Pollard of Denver. We could mention other names of the class who seem not to have been er wait till their vacant chairs are filled and the familiar faces bright and smiling, as the busy fingers fold to help make the interminable dressings for the dear soldiers going to the western front. Notice is given that the gauze rooms are closed from the 1st of May for about ten days, but the newspapers will announce the exact day when they open up again. Watch for the announcement and don't forget the colored classes' special day is Friday, in the afternoon. Do your spring cleaning, etc., in the next ten days, then one and all determine to give at least this one afternoon to show your genuine patriotism at the Red Cross rooms; for acts, not words, prove what we stand for. The Denver Star is backing the Red Cross movement. Let everybody join in and help. The second annual convention of the Utah State Federation of Women's Clubs will convene in Salt Lake City, June 11th to 13th, with the following officers: Mrs. Gertrude Lancaster, president; Mrs. Hattie Marque, first vice president; Mrs. J. Henderson, second vice president; Mrs. Della Henry, recording secretary; Mrs. Fanny Jackson corresponding secretary; Mrs. Sarah Powell, treasurer; Mrs. Lula Billingsley, chaplain. Mrs. Georgia Thompson of Chicago, arrived last Monday to be at the bed side o fher sick mother, Mrs. Bell Richardson, who is stopping at 1815 Clarkson street. ROUSE EVENTS. Mrs. M. V. Thornton left Monday for Pueblo, where she will visit friends for a short time. Mr. W. W. Smith and Charles Mitchell, Jr. returned to Rouse Sunday evening from their visit in Pueblo. Song service and A. C. E. League was held at the Y. M. C. A. Sunday evening at 6:00 o'clock. The Lesson was very interesting. Let every one attend next Sunday evening at the same hour. Mrs. R. B. Boggess left last Saturday night for Camp Funston, where she will visit her husband, H. Boggess. James McClain, who has been visiting his sister, Mrs. R. B. Boggess, left Saturday evening for his home in Broadhead. Mrs. C. A. Mitchell will leave this evening for Pueblo, where she will visit her mother for a short time. The Pulpit Aid Progressive Club will give a Hay-ride June 1st. Will leave the Y. M. C. A. at $ o'clock for the ranch home of J. W. Robinson. Admission 35c. R. L. Reed, who has been ill for the past week is able to be at his work again. The women of the Red Cross are making preparations this week for their work kto be carried on at the Y. M. C. A.

Those sick-listed are Mrs. Elizabeth McFall, who is suffering with blood poison in the left lower limb, and Mrs. Ida Davis of Kansas City, Mo., who is at the Alberta Hotel. Mrs. Carrie Summers is suffering intensely with an infected eye and pulmonary troubles. New arrivals to our city are the Washington from West Texas, and Mr. and Mrs. Henry Boston of Kansas City, Mo. Mr. Boston is an employee of the Oregon Short Line Railroad and has returned to resume his orer position. They both report of having had an excellent and most enjoyable time on their visit to their former home. The Sunday School Picnic will be Thursday, June 6th, from 9:30 a. m. to 6 p. m., on the Portneuf River. Sunday evening services at the A. M. E. Church broke all previous records for attendance owing somewhat to the fact that pastor J. A. Duncan was to discuss the subject: "The Social, Financial, Literary, Moral and Religious Advancement of the American Negroes." Too much praise cannot be given Bishop H. B. Parks for having sent us such worthy leader. The choir, under the direction of pastor Duncan, rendered excellent service Sunday evening. It was the first time in the history of the Colored people of Pocatello, that Anthems were used by a choir. Notwithstanding, by careful and competent training the choir made a wonderful future record, and are now contemplating being vested in the near future. Mr. Paul Alexander of fourth street has returned home from the State of Washington, to pay his beloved family a visit. We are glad to have him with us as he is one of our most experienced cooks and is always employed by the best hotels of the country. C. C. YOUNG.

Chapman and Brown for a tournament in straight billiards. The challenge has been accepted, and will begin next Monday evening at 8 o'clock. LeNoir and Owen are in pretty good condition for the game, but it is generally conceded that they must do some exceptional playing if they are to win over the old team. They claim, however, that they can do it; at any rate the series will doubtless be close. Secretary Bell spoke last Sunday afternoon on "The Challenge of Christianity." He declared that he had great respect for the Christian religion because it challenged the very highest and best in man—it always kept him reaching out for higher and brighter goals. It would never allow man to reach perfection, for after perfection comes decay. On Monday evening a large group of men met and organized a literary and debating society. Much interest was manifested in the scheme. A temporary set of officers was elected, and a temporary program committee. For the present the society will meet on Thursday evenings. The meeting for next Thursday evening, the 13th, will consist of the following program: Select Reading; Quartet; Address—"The Importance of the Art of Public Speaking," by Dr. Westbrook; Debate: "Resolve, That the Southern Negro, by Emigrating to the North, will Advance the Cause of Himself and o his Race." Affirmative, Undertaker Jesse Douglass; negative, Dr. A. D. Stone. Every body will be welcome to the meeting. Next Sunday afternoon the Rev. R. A. Anderson, pastor of the Wright Memorial M. E. Church, will be the speaker at the meeting. The program will begin at four o'clock, closing at five. All will be welcome. Y. W. C. A.

The Spain of today is not the Spain of your tradition or your imagination. It is remote from being the colorful and romantic domain which was once the maluspring of great adventure and the inspiration of poet and painter. The glories of Velasquez and Cervantes have not been revived in our day, writes Isane F. Marcosson in the Saturday Evening Post. She presents the spectacle of sad contrast with a departed splendor. Once a treasure house of art and wealth, the haven of mighty armadas, the nerve center of a far-reaching power on land and sea, she finds herself rent with disorder and a tool for Germanic conspiracy. She has no twentieth century Cortes to recreate her one-time world vision; she lacks a contemporary Castelar to win the multitude with the magic of his eloquence or to guide her ship of state with steady hand through the perilous waters of uncertainty. There is not even an up-to-date Don Quixote to tilt at the windmills of discontent fanned by Teutonic hot air! Life with her is still one plot after another. To a degree greater than existed in the Russia that was, she is like a national bomb factory. Spain always has a pretender in her midst. Worst of all, the ruling classes—that is, the classes that rule today—are hand in glove with a vast, close-knit and effective German propaganda that, aiming at the root of Hispanic economic independence, is subtly reaching out to influence the whole world that thinks works, buys and sells in Spanish. HELPED RICHEST JAP WOMAN Speculator, Having Amassed Millions, Is a Walking Curio in the Streets of Kobe. Madame Suzuki is reported to be the richest woman in Japan. She is at the head of Suzuki & Co., which is reported to have coined a few hundred million yen since the beginning of the world war. Madam Suzuki is the daughter of a modest stockbroker in the city of Osaka, says Adachi Kinnosuke, in Leslie's. She married Mr. Suzuki when he was a petty merchant. When he died, however, he left what was considered quite a fortune in Japan in those days. The present prime minister of hers, Kaneko, was then in charge of the business. Kaneko speculated and lost; the net loss amounted to a good many thousand yen more than the entire fortune which his late master had left to his widow and children. Kaneko actually had his foot on a crossbar of a bridge railing over the Yodo river in Osaka, ready to jump into the cold beyond, as the only at apology for his terrific blunder. "I can die," said he to himself solemnly enough, "and that is easy enough. But my dying now would not help the widow and her children." "Very well," she said. And that is all she said. She did not ask him how, why, where—nothing. She took her children and went back to her home. Her premier lives today like a mendicant after amassing not only millions but many hundred millions for her, and his one dissipation is his work. He is a walking curio in the streets of Kobe. Trawlers Not a U-Boat. A Dutch newspaper prints the story of a German U-boat which was caught in a British trap and towed into a British port. The story comes from a member of the U-boat's crew who escaped from England and is interned in Holland. COLORED WAITERS NEEDED FOR NAVY. The local Navy Recruiting Station has received orders to enlist as many Colored men as possible for duties as waiters on board vessels of the Navy. Colored waiters or mess attendants as they are known aboard ship, receive $38.40 per month, with rapid increase in pay for those who are capable. Colored men who enter this branch of the Navy are in direct line for promotion to cooks and stewards. If you wish to lear nthe coks or stewards trade here is an excellent opportunity.

The coming of Prof. Kelly Miller to this city on June 17th, to deliver a lecture at Shorter A. M. E. Church, has stirred social and intellectual Denver as no similar event has in years. Already the sale of tickets to his lecture, under direction of the Loyal Legion, indicates a capacity house. The Denver N. A. A. C. P. is also planning a most beautiful testimonial to this sterling race leader and educator by giving a banquet to immediately follow the lecture. A program in keeping with the importance and dignity of the occasion will be rendered. In order to make it a popular ovation and give all our citizens a chance to come in close social relation with the man who has so fearlessly championed the cause of our race the tickets will be sold at 50 cents, simply enough to cover the bare cost of the supper. Let representative Denver be out in force. All reservations for tickets must be taken by Friday night, June 14th, as the committee must know how many will be seated by that time. With the season of beautiful flowers and summer gayet at hand it should and will be the most brilliant affair Denver has ever witnessed.—Advertisement. Y. M. C. A.
