DR. ROBERT R. MOTON HEADS NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE NEGRO POPULATION IS LARGE FACTOR IN AMERICAN FINANCE BOOST, PAY And Read The Bystander XXV. NO. 9. DR. ROBER NEGRO Sound Financial Advice for Voters Is Not Only a Formidable Investor but it Also Creditor of U. S. MUST CONIDER PARTY PLEDGES Democratic Methods Have Inflated Our Currency All Beason. Chicago, Aug. 23—from his observation of disfranchisement, discrimination and peonage, for which the Democratic party stands sponsor, the colored man should be deeply interested in the contrast of policies between the two big parties on banking and currency. The American Negro is worth $2,000,000,000 now, and while he operates on white-swee banks, he is more considerable in banking, business with white institutions, and counting his activities in agriculture, he is one of the largest factors in the production of the country. Governor Coolidge called attention to this in his recent speech accepting the Republican nomination for vice president, when he said that the "colored people had loaned to the government $1.00 out of every $5.00 they possessed." Since the colored man has become a formidable investor, but a creditor of his country, he should carefully consider the difference between the pledges of the Republicans and the miserable hedge-podge of reckless extravagance carried on by the Democrats. Colored investors loaned their money to the government, not to be thrown away, but to meet the economic necessities of the country. They want the bonds they bought to be always worth their face value. But the Democrats, in their zeal, confiscate with loan and water into our currency until it is inflated beyond any precedent in the country's history. "The continuance of this policy, since the armistice," says the Republican platform, "lays the administration open to severe criticism. Almost up to the present time the practices of the federal reserve hard as a credit note, often frankly dominated by the convenience of the treasury. "The results have been a greatly increased war cost, a serious loss to the millions of people who in good faith bought Liberty bonds and Victory notes at par. As a creditor of his government and a beginner in the financial arena, the national currency is a matter of as much concern to the colored man as to the whitest man in the country. It is of very great importance to the colored laborer and the hard-working washerwoman who have loaned their country money to buying the goods for which they paid $50 is worth $50 every hour in the day, every day in the week and every week in the year. The Tennessee Fiasco The Tennessee legislature has ratified the suffrage amendment but several members of that august body have vowed that the majority rule shall not govern in this case and have left the state rather than permit a quorum to assemble in order to finally perfect the amendment. Speaker of the House has said that no power on earth can force him to sign the bill. Following this action some of Tennessee' citizens have caused an injunction to issue which has served to present presiding officers of the two legislative bodies from signing and the secretary of state from certifying the bill to the secretary of the United States. In this action on the part of lawmakers of a state is disgraceful, repugnant to our form of government and a gross failure to live up to the oath of office. The state boasts of having employed this method several times before for the purpose of defeating legislation. In the meantime woman suffrage hangs in a balance as far as the state is concerned and no one will be able to vote at the November election or not. It is hoped that some other state will pass the amendment so the women can vote and to relieve the country of the embarrassment which the legislature of Tennessee has brought about. Chamberlain's Colic and Disarrhoe Remedy. This is unquestionably one of the most successful medicines in use for bowel complaints. A few doses of it will cure an ordinary attack of diarrhoea. It has been used in nine epidemics of dysentery with perfect success. It can always be depended upon to give prompt relief in cases of colic and cholera morbus. When reduced with water and sweetened it is pleasant to take. Every family should keep this remedy at hand.—Adv. Chairman Hays Opens Campaign in Maine Chairman Will H. Hays of the Republican national committee in a speech at Augusta, Maine, formally opened the campaign in that state on August 21. Maine holds its election in September. Previous to 1916 it was a good indicator for the country as to the election, and although calculations were upset at this time, the Republicans are losing no time in getting seats in the House. Chairman Hays is a forceful speaker and in his capacity not only can put the issues before the people in a vote getting manner but is in a position to speak with a great weight as to the parties' policies. CURING "WILSONITEIS." He not only scores Mr. Wilson in his game, but also that he has taken the same Cox has taken in the same methods. "It is for their new leader, now zigzagging back and forth from the sinister blight of the solist of the Democratic party to the furtive presence of its quartet of bosses, to make his selection. "It matters not to us. Our sale requirement is that there shall be no restriction. This referendum is going to be more than solemn. It is going to be great, the most comprehensive ever. Before it begins, it will be accompanied by every phase of maladministration and every fleek of Wilsonitis that have brought untold miseries upon a people who have every right to be prosperous and contented. "This is your star, the star of Maine the North Star of the, union, unblemished from the time, more than a century ago, when it was added to the galaxy on our national emblem. Let it not be tarnished now. Illumine it refresh by sending forth the message that Maine continues inflexibly American and joices in its will of grandeur. It should voice to her sister states the spirit of complete victory which surely in November will crown Warren G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge, now leaders of the party, then leaders of the republic. New York.—The City of New York has been awakened to one of the evidences of real progress by the presence of Mrs. A. Thelma Johnson, proprietor of one of the most modern department stores in Oklahoma, who, accompanied by her sister, Mrs. A. Carey, has for more than $25,000 worth of goods for fall and winter. Mrs. Johnson is the wife of J. C. Johnson, the well known capitalist of Wewoka, Oklahoma. The ladies are also in a party, in which is Mrs. Andrew Ruble, foster sister of Mrs. A. Carey, the player who attended the National Negro Business league in Philadelphia. Voteless Negro May Limit South In U.S. Congress Ballota, Not Population, Basis of Change. New York—Representative Isaac Seigel, chairman, reapportionment committee, house of representatives, has received a number of letters and letters of reapportionment of northern representation in the house of representatives and in the electoral college. According to Mr. Seigel, the question will be reopened by his committee in response to sentiment in the north Six of the nine committee members are northern Republicans, and one of them, Representative Barbary, of California, is a leader in the pro-paganda in favor of abolition in representation in congress, on Negro population which is denied the ballot. Cowardice Elected Wilson. In a letter to George G. Lockwood, of Washington, D.C., editor of the national republican, Mr. Siegel said: "To the inexplicable weakness and cowardice of Republican leaders, handling of the reapportionment of 1900 and 1910 is due the rejection of President Wilson in 1916 for without votes in the electoral college based upon the suffrage of voters disfranchised under the military practices of the states of the solid south, Gov. Hughes would have been "In 1916 Illinois cast more votes than all the eleven states of the solid south, plus Oklahoma, combined. Yet these twelve states had five times as much representation in the house and in the electoral college. DES MOINES, IOWA, THURSDAY, AUGUST 26, 1920. Proposition of Voters. In Indiana one person in four votes. In the solid south, as a whole, one person in seventeen votes. In South Carolina and Mississippi one person in thirty votes. This is not only a violation of the basic principle of democracy upon the state where representative of government is permitted to exist. "It is not generally known that in these states more white men than black have been disenfranchised by one diabest expedit and another. The effect of the system is to exclude from participation in elections the vast majority of those who toil with their hands." Tenn. Lily-white Chiefs Repudated (By the Associated Negro Press.) Chicago, Ill., Aug. 20—News has reached Chicago that Robert Church, Memphis, Tenn., has won a notable victory in his home state. Congressman Sam Sells, Chattanooga district and Jesse Littleton, national committee from Tennessee, who was a candidate for the republican nomination for governor, were both defeated in the recent republican primary election and Littleton was the man who were directly responsible for the unseating of Church at the June convention here. At least this is the charge entered against them by Church himself. Their respective defeats are laid at the door of Church. The story is told that Church vowed vengeance on these men and declared that he and his friends would bring about their political deaths when the primary election came to pass. The color of truth is given in the instance of both men. The Chattanooga district has a large colored vote. This vote was naturally enough favorable to the Church cause because of the race relation. Throughout the state of Tennessee the colored vote is the bone and sinew of the republican party. Church is well liked by all the elements of the colored voters. Putting two and two together, it becomes a very easy matter to lay at the door of Church to defeat the door of the redoubtable "Bob" Church. No matter what was the cause, Sells will not sit in the next national house and Littleton will have to content himself with performing the duties of national committeeman. The inquiries that pour into this office daily from colored veterans of the world war show that there are still a large number of our men who do not know that the government offers free medical and surgical treatment to all men suffering from wounds, injuries, or disease incurred during active service in the line of duty. Free examinations are given disabled soldiers and the best treatment known to present day medical science is provided with the necessary equipment it is necessary that the soldier be placed in a hospital where he can be more closely observed and given highly specialized treatment. This hospitalization is free of all charge and where the circumstances warrant it, the government grants in addition compensation to the disabled man and his dependents. But it is only when the government identifies pits that compensation is given, in any other instance where medical examination shows a sufficient percentage of disability traceable to military service, the government provides a graded scale of compensation. The attention of the government is called to this compensation regardless of whether they carried war risk insurance or not. In carrying out this program of supplying the best possible medical treatment and hospital facilities to men and women disabled as a result of war service, the bureau of war risk insurance is taking steps to gather services for the disabled and hospital treatment into hospital under the control of the government within the next year. At the present time there are 17,981 disabled ex-service men and women (war risk patients) being cared for in more than 1,000 hospitals scattered throughout the United States. Of this number 8,123 are in hospitals operated by the government and 8,988 in private hospitals including state and territorial. By the end of the year, it is estimated that approximately 30,000 ex-soldiers will be receiving hospital treatment. All colored veterans who wish further information concerning free government medical treatment and compensation for disabilities contracted in the service, should address their communication to J. W. William, the special representative, colored soldiers and sailors, bureau of war risk insurance, Washington, D. C.

The Best ADVERTISING MEMBER TO REACH COLORED PEOPLE IN THE WEST Price Five Cents SS LEAGUE FINANCE Negro Business League Principal of Tuskegee Institute Re-elected President by Philadelphia Session. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Aug. 20, —Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee institute was re-elected president of the National Negro Business league amid cheers and a most wonderful outburst of enthusiasm at the Friday morning session held in the academy of music. Wednesday evening Dr. Moton delivered his annual address which attracted keen attention and intense interest from all in attendance. Outstanding Statements from the Address of Dr. Moton It is now twenty-one years since the wisdom and foresight of one of the world's most useful as well as most distinguished citizens brought the National Negro Business league into being. The inspiration that has been received by Negro business has resulted of this movement and the confidence that has been inspired in the minds of thousands of people as to the business capacity of the Negro race, and the high service that has been reenforced in general cannot be accurately assessed must be left to time and succeeding generations to fully comprehend. The Influence of the Prem. Speaking of the influence of the colored newspapers, Dr. Moton said; "They have worked against great odds with the greatest handicap and, I sometimes fear, the least appreciation. We must stand behind them and strengthen them with subscriptions, advertisements and support. There should be more Negro newspapers in every Negro home of our country such public support, our newspapers cannot expand or render the service that we expect of them. Besides subscriptions, Negro business must advertise in Negro papers. Advertising makes business, both for the advertiser and for the newspaper. The benefits are mutual; the co-operation should be mutual. Negro newspapers have given our business support to the government in all its publicity work in connection with the war program, and from a purely commercial angle, they have demonstrated that they can carry a message in an effective way to the twelve million Negroes of this country. Yes, this is an business, and this is very important and necessary as I have said again, again, but, friends, the biggest and most important of all, publicity work in connection with the states government has is to guarantee to its citizens life and liberty in the pursuit of happiness. Deep down in the heart of hearts of practically every Negro, whatever his business, whatever eminence he may have reached, whether farmer or professional, and however much money he may have accumulated—deep down in the heart of hearts of the American Negro in the hands of the American justice and fairness; he wants for himself and for his race the liberty and justice which other Americans enjoy. I am glad of the strong auxiliary organizations that are allies of this league, such as the Banker*'s association, the Undertakers' association, the Bar association, the Press association, the Insurance association and others. Both groups would be able to could affiliate with this league every worthy movement among the colored people in the nation, in some associated capacity. This league enters upon a new era of usefulness and power and our opportunities for service to our race and to the country are unlimited if we keep those obligations unimpaired by other level. And whatever the development of the future, I hope it will always remain a dignified, respected organization; that it will always stand for the highest and best in the race and in the country; that it will adwally throw the weight of its influence against all forms of wrong and injustice, and that it shall ask for the Negro not pity and mercy not enjoyed by other worthy American citizens; but it does ask and will continue to ask that Negroes to the same degree as others, shall share the blessings and privileges of American citizenship in every line of human endeavor—no more, and no less. What is Best for Indigestion? Mr. A. Robinson of Drumquin, Ontario has been troubled for years with indigestion, and recommends Chambrglain's Tablets as "the best medicine I ever used." If troubled with indigestion or constipation give them a trial. They are certain to prove beneficial. They are easy to take and pleasant in effect. Price 25 cents.—Adv. E. TRACY BLAGBURN CO.
