Washington, District of Columbia.—By the authority and direction of the War Department and the Committee on Public Information, Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, called to Washington this week for a conference, thirty or every representative of colored news of the country, together with a number of leaders of thought and opinion among the people, to consider methods by which the millions of colored people of the nation may best assist in the winning of the war.
Proceedings Marked by Dignity and Unity
The conference formally opened Wednesday morning, June 19, in the main auditorium of the new building of the Department of the Interior, 18th and F Streets, northwest, at 10:30 o'clock, and continued throughout Thursday and Friday, June 20 and 21.
Mr. Scott presided at all of the sessees which were marked by an earnestness of purpose, a broad grasp of the question at issue and an unawarring oatyty to the flag of the nation as well as an intense devotion to the highest interest of the colored Ameri cans for whom they came primarily to speak.
The discussion covered a wide range, and the conferences were given an opportunity to present their views, reflecting the state of mind of the colored people of the country with the utmost freedom and frankness, unhampered by parliamentary restrictions or any effort to direct opinion in any particular channel—save that of utilizing in the most effective manner every resource at the command of the race to bring victory to the American arms in its present struggle for liberty and world-wide democracy. Mr. Scott's admirably-tempered addresses at various stages of the deliberations repeatedly admonished the conferences to voice their demands fully and fearlessly, laying all grievances and suggestions for their redemption upon the common altar, with a view of strengthening where needed the patriotism and morale of the Negro people. So fair and impartial were the ruling party in the chair on every point raised in principle enunciated, that at no time was a single exception taken to the truth. Every conceivable shade of individual opinion was represented in the body, but there was from the outset a first disposition to subordinate private and personal considerations to the general good, without regard to politics, creed, faction or section. This lofty aim was adhered to most religiously. Dignity of statement, harmony of thought and unity of action were the predominating features of the three day's session. The document reported by the special committee appointed to summarize the expression of the conference as to the best plan for the mobilization of the resources of the 12,000,000 Negroes of the Republic in support of the war aims of the government, was adopted by a unanimous vote, given heartily and enthusiastically. "America" was sung with fervor andunction as final adjournment was taken.

NEGRO SOLDIERS FROM ALL POINTS
WORLD'S GREATEST FIGHTING
MACHINES IN ACTION—SOME
UNDER THEIR OWN OFFICERS
—WAR CARRESPONDENT ON
THE SCENE.
Thirty thousand brave, uninchining, uncompromising American citizens representing a people of over Thirteen million Negroes who are true, loyal, American citizens, are now fighting under the Stars and Stripes, in the trenches, somewhere in France. While the figures given out have not been officially confirmed, it has been learned from authentic source in this city that with the aid of Lieut. H. A. Cameron and Captain M. V. Boutte and H. H. Walker, with quite a few others who are stationed in various camps in the country, that the number in France was augmented to this increase and that the Negro soldier without fear or hesitation has made a gallant dash at the Huns and they are now pushing their way to the very gates of Berlin. While the statement "going to Berlin" might be considered, in a measure, by some as off, the very ones holding the line and stopping of the mighty drive that has been repeated or attempted time and again and checked by the American Forces who are fighting with the Allies and with these American forces. Negro troops from Tennessee alone there are four thousand, old Company Under Capt. Hadley from Nebraska, the Athens of the South is among those fighting in the trenches over the seas. While accurate in formation that would give details of the heroism of the Negro troops has been slow in coming across the Atlantic either by cable or wireless, returned officials and men have been ex-travagant in their language and in their compliments of what the black man has been doing and is still doing to help win the world's war for De moracy.
The Negro press throughout the country under the National Negro Press Association has completed its arrangements and the members of that organization of newspaper men are said now to be in a position to give to the world through their war correspondent, who is said to be in France at this time, facts that are calculated to bring even greater patriotism and a deeper feeling in the breasts of the black men because of the sacrifice his brother is undergoing over the seas that the rights and the liberties of the nations of the world might be respected.
Cablegrams announcing the safe arrival of the various officers, men and companies bring no details as to the incidents. In discussing the matter today, members of the staff console themselves in the old adage that says "no news is good news, but bad news this relative to the fighting of the
In addition to all of Negro troops, it is said that the Army and Navy journal announced a week so that Major Davis, now stationed in the Philippine Islands, a former Washington boy, in the Spanish American War, has been promoted to Lieutenant Colonel, which gives another full fledged colonel for the Negroes and that in all probability Col. Young who was riding last week from Wilberforce, Ohio to Washington, D. C., on horse back, would in all probability be called back to active service during the war. Following this several hundred thousand

VIRGINIA COLORED FARMERS
MAKE GOOD
Hampton, Va.—The colored farmers in Virginia are beginning to see daylight in their upward struggle from poverty and ignorance. John B. Pierce, District Negro Agent, in charge of Negro farm demonstration work, reports that in a single year over 4400 colored farmers, with whom the Virginia county agents demonstrated work, raised practically all their home supplies; 969 opened new bank accounts; and 1233 increased their bank deposits.
Negroes are still to be called to service and duty either in America or in France.
THERE WILL BE NO DISCRIMINATION
Declares the Secretary of War.
WAR DEPARTMENT HAS MADE THIS CLEAR "ANY WRONG WILL BE RIGHTED" SAYS SECRETARY BAKER—UNFAIRNESS WILL BE INVESTIGATED.
Washington, D. C., July 1—The War Department has made it clear that it will tolerate no discrimination against colored draftees by the local draft boards in any section of the country and that cases of alleged unfairness will be fully investigated and corrected by the Departmental authorities.
Secretary of War Newton D. Baker, in a recent interview, speaking with reference to alleged discrimination against colored draftees, said, in part:
"I have heard that draft boards in adjoining counties take a different view of practically identical facts with regards to colored men; but the answer in all these cases is that a review is provided directly by the President, and all that is necessary for anybody to do who thinks there is a grievance, is to point it out to the War Department, and it will be investigated. If the draft boards act unfairly, we will correct their action.
The War Department will brook no discrimination, and any cases of alleged or suspected discrimination brought to our attention will be investigated, and any wrong done will be righted."
Some people have declared that colored farmers do not know how to use their money and therefore should be satisfied with a bare subsistence. This is what has happened to some of the colored farmers' increased earnings, according to the District Agent's report.
In Brunswick County one new patent roller mill was installed last year; in Caroline County two were installed. The following churches were remodeled: New Grove, Lunenburg County; Morning Star, Nottoway County; Mt. Moriah and Cypress, Surry County.
In Caroline County eight graded school buildings were constructed at an average cost of $1500 each.
W. G. Young of Greenville County is one of the progressive farmers with whom demonstration work has been conducted. He owns 654 acres of land and has large barns and granaries sufficient to shelter all his live stock and feed, machinery and farm tools. He has seven horses, one pumice-buffer Jersey bull, and 51 horses, one pumice-buffer Berkshire boar. His improved machinery includes a tractor engine, gang plow and disc, mowing machine, stalk cutter, manure spreader, corn, cotton and peanut planters, fertilizer drill, corn shredder and husker, and cotton gin. His success as a farmer is a great incentive to others
Agricultural fairs were held in the seventeen counties in which colored farm demonstration agents are at work. "These county fairs have served as a medium for inspiring the colored farmers to strive harder for greater improvement in their moral, literary, and industrial development" says John Pierce. "They bring county officials and white friends in direct touch with the contributions which the colored farmers are making to the growth of the county. They pave the way for the best development of the county. They demonstrate that the county can be developed along all lines by both races working co-operatively."
DIXIE LUCK WHIPS GERMANS
WHO HURL 4,000 GIANT
WHO HURL 4,000 GIANT
By Frank Taylor.
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
WITH THE AMERICAN FORCES
IN FRANCE, July 1.—American Negro troops proved their value as fighters in the line east of Verdun on June 12, it is now permissible to state. The Germans attempted a raid in that sector but were completely repulsed by the Negroes. The Bochies began a terrific bombardment at one minute after midnight, throwing over between 3,000 and 4,000 shells from guns ranging in size from 67 to 340 millimeters. The bombardment was concentrated on small areas. Many of the shells made holes from ten to fifteen feet across.
In the midst of this inferno the Negroes coolly stuck to their posts, operating machine guns and automatic rifles, and keeping up such a steady barrage that the German infantry failed to penetrate the American lines.
Only Two Wounded.
The Americans sustained only two wounded.
"Dixie luck was a workin' with us," explained one. "We all got knocked down lots o' times, but every man got right up."
During the attack the crew of a machine gun was bowled over by a minnewerer projectile which made a fifeentooth hole ten feet from them. They all got up, remounted their guns and continued shooting until it jammed. Then, despite the terrible bombardment, they fixed it and again turned it on the Germans. This incident was repeated twice—Tennessee and American.

STATE CONVENTION IN SESSION
EJCELLENT PROGRAM CAR-

—BANNER YEAR FOR THE
STATE OF OHIO.
Cincinnati, O., Monday, July 1. Boiling over with Sunday school enthusiasm and unsurpassed by the amount of actual work done, the First District Sunday School Convention closed its annual session in this city yesterday. The event was celebrated and goes down in the history as the greatest session in the history of the Western Union Baptist Sunday School Convention of the state, comprising the First District. There were a number of distinguished visitors here throughout the week, and all of the sessions were held at the Antioch Baptist Church, known throughout the country as Dr. Wyatt's church on East Ninth street.
From the opening session, Friday morning, June 28, until the close Sunday afternoon, there was one continuous round of Sunday school activities. But it as conceded by all that on Sunday afternoon the climax was reached, about a mammoth street parade, about four blocks in length, in which over twenty Sunday schools and representatives participated, and where two brass bands dispensed music. The bands in the parade were the Young Men's Christian Association Band and the Masonic Band, both from this city. The parade was formed by Grand Marshal D. L. Watson, a former superintendent, and the line of march traversed some of the principal thoroughfares of Cincinnati. Veterans of the Sunday school world, in point of age, as well as experience, were on the show and in the parade; more male than female in the Secretary of the Sunday School Congress, Henry Allen Bard, of Nashville, Tenn.; Rev. E. W. D. Curry, of the Urbana Industrial Institute, Urbana; Hon. George W. Hayes, Ex-President and Organizer of the First District Convention; Mr. W. Jackson, President of the First District Convention; Miss Clara Parter Nelson, the Secretary; Rev. Dr. Scott, Walker, Williams, Jones and a host of other associate ministers and pastors. The zeal displayed by the school workers was not diminished, even when the parade was overtaken by a downpour of rain; the workers continued to play; Old Glory was unfurled and the School workers, with their pennants and banners, marched to the tune of "Onward Christian Soldiers," without deserting their posts or breaking the line of march. When the parade had reached the Antioch Baptist Church, they marched in, while Prof John Smiley conducted the congregational singing. There were solos by little Miss Marian Hayes Hawkins, Miss Mattie Johnson, Mrs. W. Angus Jones and Prof. Smiley, after which the President introduced Prof E. W. D. Curry, who spoke for hour and twenty minutes of address into his divisions. When he had finished, the President then led Rev Henry Allen Boy, who had been invited to the Convention to deliver an address on Sunday School Work; he spoke for forty minutes. The curtain on the occasion really descended at the close of the night session. Many were the compilations paid to Mr. Jackson and Mrs. Nelson for the work they had done. As Prof. Jackson is serving his tent consecutive term as press dentist.
The First District Convention was organized in 1879 by Mr. Geo. W. Hayes, who served for five years as its president, and retired in order to take up a larger work. The next session of the Convention will be held at Adlison, Ohio, and already plans are under way for a great gathering. It is understood that the Executive Board will recommend a delegate to the Sunday School Congress for next year.
The following officers were elected: President, Bro W. T. Jackson; secretary, Sister Clara Porter Nelson; corresponding secretary, Sister Alice Prosser; treasurer, Sister Hannah Graham.

There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease. It is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time and nourishes the food; it stimulates and nourishes the hair; it causes a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced resistered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired.
To get best results from the use of Quinade k is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasoap. Quinasoap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally cocanut oil, and is a thorough cleaner. Quinasoap lathers hair soft and fuzzy and imprints a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo.
Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your druggist or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from his store. Please write to the price and we will mail them to Seeby. Seeby Drug Co. 79 East 130th street New York City, for a sample of Quinade, mentioning the name of this paper.—Adv.
BUSINESS LEAGUE BOOSTERS
By Albon L. Holsey.
Tuskegee Institute, Ala—A booklet entitled "The Negro in Business in Philadelphia" has recently been issued by the Armstrong Association of that city. The compiler summarizes the study as follows.
"A summary review of this study shows a very large number of businesses of small size. This small size of the business and the lack of efficiency frequently found may be due to one or to several of the following causes: Inexperience, lack of training, lack of ability, difficulty in securing capital. The Negro who wishes to enter business is usually inexperienced and untrained, and has practically no opportunity of apprenticeship in the stores or offices of white business men. There are very few business students to complete him. It is true also that no business courses are available for them in the school; but even if such courses were offered they would although of much assistance be of small value in comparison with the apprenticeship available to white boys and girls and young men and women."
The National Negro Business League has frequently called attention to the need of concerted action on the part of the race to help our

boys and girls quality for successful business careers. The following suggestion was sent out to Local Negro Business Leagues some months ago:
"Frequently, we find in the South, stores owned by white people, especially gents' furnishing and furniture store where the colored porter is abled to serve colored customers. This sort of thing should be encouraged. If the colored boy is bright and shows an apness in grasping business details and the fine points of salemannship, the Local Negro Business League should take him in hand and help him to improve himself along this line, remembering that this young man may be future material for the sales-management of a Negro Business enterprise."

FOOD CONSERVATION NOTES.
New Meat Program
The demand for beef for our Army, the armies of the Allies and their civil populations for this summer are beyond our present surplus. On the other hand we have enough increased supply of pork this summer to permit economical expansion in its use. It will therefore be a direct service to our Armies and the Allies if our people will in some degree substitute fresh pork, bacon ham, and sausage for beef products. The Food Administration requests all hotels and restaurants not to place on their menus or served boiled beef more than two meals weekly; beef steaks more than one meal weekly. roast beef more than one meal weekly It asks householders not under any circumstances to buy more than one one-fourth pounds of clear beef weekly or one self-pound pounds, including the home, per person in the household. The public will realize that the changing conditions of production from season to season, the changing situation in shipping, and therefore, of the markets available to the Allies.
NASHVILLE GLOBE. FRIDAY JULY 5, 1918.
and the increasing demand for our growing Army, with the fluctuating supply of local beef in France, all make it impossible to determine policies for a long period in advance. The Food Administration has recently asked for economy in all meat consumption; now it emphasizes further reduction of beef by the substitution of pork. It is anticipated that this program will hold good until September 15, and the Food Administration most earnestly requests cooperation of the public.
THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD UP
RESERVES
How large will this years crops be? And what use will this Nation make of them? Such are the queries which nowadays are all important and are heard everywhere. Most vital of all, perhaps, is the question of our approaching new wheat supplies, and how much supplies are to be utilized. At press and most careful estimates place the 1918 wheat crop at a high figure and there is little reason to doubt them.
What is to be done with this wheat? To find the answer for this a good many people—far too many—are arguing thus: "Wheat supplies at present in this country are abnormally low, have been in that condition for some time There are all sorts of trade restrictions regarding the amount of wheat that can be bought, sold, and used. The housewife has been told to conserve wheat in every home so one. Now if the approaching wheat prices rise us at once rectify all these abnormal conditions, and get back to our normal pre-war domestic conditions. That is surely the only sensible course."
Such reasoning is altogether false. Worse than that, it is unpatriotic, in that it contributes nothing towards our troops or the Allies. Our coming wheat crop, which should begin to be available sometime after the middle of August, must be regarded as a potential factor in maintaining the strength and morale of the armies and people in allied Europe. Such an achievement can be accomplished only by regarding the coming crop of wheat as a means for building up a reserve, practical and efficient in its use. That is true, of course that with a larger supply of wheat in hand, some restrictions regarding domestic use may be modified or removed. But such removal of restricions should be regarded as only inidential. No mere assets of domestic convenience can begin to equal the importance of an adequate reserve.
Such a reserve will provide an accumulation of at least one staple food product which will permit real flexibility of usefulness. That is, is will help guard against any unforeseen and unfavorable crop conditions in the future. It will aid, by constant shipments overseas, the Allies in building up in their countries such reserves as are necessary to guard against unexpected contingencies which might result from a more complete submarine blockade. Finally perhaps most important of all, such a reserve will help counteract the effect of the steady and continued division of men from food production to other necessary war activities.
And all of this applies not merely to wheat, but to any other staple food product of which we may have an abundance. Therefore the coming harvest time should—must—be regarded not as an occasion to cease conservation, nor as a period in which it is advisable to "take off the lid" in any sense, but rather to allow time when our Nation for service will be greater because its opportunity is greater. That is a policy and an ideal to be lived up to whole-heartedly and patriotically during the coming months.
CAN CONSERVATION.
Many people who have never raised vegetables and small fruits before are, as the result of war-garden propaganda, producing more than their families can consume during the summer. Others have increased the size of their gardens so as to swell the total production far above normal. This prospect for a large sirup, coupled with shortage of freight and express accommodations, makes it necessary for these people to buy their canning and drying outfits, canns, and other containers early in the season.
For jellies and jams, old jars and glasses may be used. No good containers of any kind should be thrown away, as they represent not only a possible saving of food but also a saving of glass or tin and valuable shipping space.
It is not a saving, however, to put up preserves in milk bottles, a practice of which the milkman often complains.
MAKING COLLEGE GIRLS' FOOD SCIENTISTS.
It is natural that in facing the problem of carrying the message of food conservation into all corners of the land the Food Administration should have turned to the college girl for aid. She represents a vast amount of potential energy, which, with her trained mind and quick aptitude for leadership, would make her services invaluable provided she had the necessary special training i n the science of food.
As comparatively few colleges gave their students an opportunity for this special training, the National Food Administration in Washington sent out three courses of study last winter to every co-educational and woman's educational institution in the country.
The first of these courses gave the history and organization of the Food Administration, its purposes and policies, as well as the most important facts regarding the world food situation. It was designed to give the college girl a basis for an intelligent opinion on the food problems of today and those that loom on the horizon of tomorrow.
Course II dealt with the fundamentals of food and nutrition in relation to the war, and Course III was purely a laboratory course, designed especially to give the information and to develop the knowledge and prepare the student to act as assistant in official demonstration work.
In some institutions one or more of these courses were made compulsory, but in the majority of cases they were

left optional to the student. The response of the college girl to this opportunity to equip herself for active service in food conservation was beyond all expectation. Over 20,000 diplomas were issued in June by the United States Food Administration to the college girls who had passed the examinations in these authorized courses in food science. Many others took one or more of the courses, but did not take the examinations and so did not receive the official diploma from Washington.
Upon the closing of the college for the summer recess, each girl who desired to do active service in the work of food conservation was put in touch with the secretary of Volunteer College Workers of the Food Administration in her particular State, who in turn placed her where her special training and aptitude would make her services valuable. This means that in June a vast army of young manhood went out over the cities and institutions all over America equipped with the fun damental facts of the food situation and eager not only to live their own lives in accordance with the food conservation commandment but to influence others to do it also.

BRITISH FOOD REGULATIONS
FOR INVALIDS.
Recent regulations by the British Ministry of Food indicate that invalids are to be well cared for. The regulations allow a greatly increased ration to sufferers from milk cases of diabetes and from tuberculosis. Diabetes are allowed the maximum of two and one-half pound of butcher's meat, one pound of bacon, and one and one-half pounds of butter or margarine weekly. Tuberculosis sufferers are allowed a maximum of two and one-half pounds of butter, one pound of bacon and one pound of butter weekly, in view of the fact that protein and fat are necessary to the diet of consumptives.

Most foods, besides milk, which are important in cooking for the sck—such as eggs, fish, rice and flour—are not rationed. For all who need it, extra milk may be obtained through local food controllers. The Ministry of Food states that applications for white flour should be reduced to a minimum, since it has been shown that war bread when properly baked and chewed is as digestible as white bread, though it may be so palatable. With the allowance made by the Food Controller, it is possible for invalids of all classes to receive suitable foods and enough for their needs.

"I had had a cough for years, and thought it would get better at times, I was never clear of a cough either winter or summer," says Mrs. K. C. Wiles, who lives at 88 Murray street, South Nashville, Tenn., in her statement given several days ago. "I really became alarmed over my condition, for I had tried all sorts of remedies, but they did not help me at all. I finally tried Lung-Vita and, to my surprise, the cough stopped and I am feeling well. I know that Lung-Vita is the best medicine for a cough made, and would not be without it in my house."

TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH
NOTES.
Sunday June 16. The Tabernacle Baptist Church had the most successful rally in its history. The pastor, Rev. H. M. Burns on account of illness was later than usual in starting his campaign. Each club was asked on raise one hundred dollars. Dispise the fact they only had two months to comply with the request, each chairman got busy and to much can not be said to their credit for the energetic and untiring effort they put forth to reach the desired goal. That they felt amply paid for any sacrifice of time or money that was made were exemplified by the smiles that wreathed their faces when the total sum of $900.00 was announced. Mr. Ben Thomas chairman of the young men's literary debating club reported $183.00 chairman, $189.00 Henry Morgan chairman, $120.00 B. U. Bettie Rucker chairman, $100.00 Circle No. 1. Mrs. Ophelia Morton chairman, $88.20. Circle No. 2 Mrs Ellen Evans, chairman $140.00. Circle No. 4. Mrs. Bessie Gordon, chairman, $29.27. Circle No. 5 Mrs. Ola Beach, chairman, $95.10. Circle No 6. Mrs. Lizzie Arledge, chairman $94.00. after collection, $3.45.
The rally was continued until Sunday June 23, bringing the total seene the one thousand dollar margin that it is safe to say when all reports are in it will tip the bean under the leadership of our pastor, Rev. H. M. McCormick. We never been a time in the history of the church when the future prospect for the church seemed so bright and encouraging.
WOMAN'S MISSIONARY BAPTIST UNION.

ERECTION OF MONUMENT
Few of the members of Big Harper Primitive Baptist McNairy Hill met together at M. Ararat Cemetery on Tuesday evening, June 18, 1918, for the purpose of unveiling Rev. Slater's monument. We had quite an enjoyable time and the spirit seemed to flow with each and every one. The elder, Rev. Roache and Deacon James Harris, Bri. Goo Dunlap, Deacon Lewis Caruthers, Deacon Sandy Gregory, Deacon Charlie Crockett, Deacon John Cannon and Deacon Rivian concerning the faithfulness and how firm he stood in the faith and how he held his church together. The mothers were next on program. Sister Rachel Collier spoke concerning how faithful he was and how the monument would be there to mark the place where he rested throughout all acres. Mother Francis Owen was also present with us, she was pleased with the work. Sister Fannie Rucker was present and spoke of Job, after which a beautiful design was laid on his grave by her. Sister Rachel Grim read a paper, subject, "Who has gone to thy grave, I miss thee. Sister Mandy Thompson has loved the love he showed him, 'sor Frances Mays who was the author of the work spoke last and said in part, 'Lord, thou hast been my dwelling place in all generations,' then she said a few of McNairy Hill members of Rev. Slater's scattered flock which had been torn aound since its departure of April 3, 1914. How our hearts have groaned since we have had this work on hand to purchase this monument and how so many started with us but fell on the way side and God has said to his followers, be thou faithful until death and I will give thee a crown of life. In conclusion she said, "Of the labor rest, the battle has been tough and victory won, and thou art crowned at last. She further bid them at farewell to leave for Chicago, Ill June 21, 1918. On Wednesday night following the erection, Rev. Roach preached as soul-reviving sermon concerning the work.
WAR FINANCE CORPORATION
The War Finance Corporation was designed primarily to extend credit through the banks of the country, and not directly borrowers, to industries which are necessary or contributory to winning the war. Only in exceptional cases, in rare instances, will loans be made directly to industries.
War conditions have brought to bear a very heavy burden on the banks of the country. They are called upon to assist largely in financing the Government, as well as to meet the increased legitimate financial demands of the industries of the country. The War Finance Corporation was created to enable them to continue to furnish essential credits for war industries and enterprises necessary or contributory to the prosecution of the war.
The corporation, therefore, is an instrumentality to which the banks can resort to obtain assistance to finance war industries, and is not intended to be a direct lender to corporations or individuals.
LIBERTY LOAN INTEREST RATES
Secretary McAdoo officially corrects a statement appearing in various newspapers that the Fourth Liberty Loan will bear interest at the rate of 4 1-2 per cent. He states that no thought has been entertained of issuing the bonds of the fourth loan at a higher rate than 4 1-4 per cent. It is interesting to recall here the Secretary's appeal in his Third Liberty Loan speeches that the rate of interest for Government loans be stabilized at 4 1-4 per cent. He said then that as an intelligent people we should make a stand for the financing of our Government during the period of the war at a stabilized rate of interest, naming 4 1-4 per cent as the proper figure, so that all business and investments might be adjusted to that rate. Majority of McAdoo Kitchen he strongly urges stabilizing the rate at 4 1-4 per cent. The Secretary of the Treasury has also asserted he did not think that the patriotism of the American people was measured by the rate of interest on a Government bond, and the support the people gave the Third Liberty Loan seems to have justified his belief.
THEY'RE FILLING THE SHELLS.
This year we have had a surprising demonstration of the ability of the poultry industry to expand on short notice. Every day reports are coming in to the Food Administration which indicate that the hens are digging in with both feet and filling shells high-gheeled munitions plants. The storage houses now have about 6,000,000 cases put away, which means that the high point of last year has been almost reached at this early date.
The anthenkilling rule which stirred up a storm of protest at the time it was put nto effect has served the purpose of increasing our supply of concentrated food, and production is still going on at such a rate as to insure our people an adequate supply of eggs.
Farmers who were anxious to sell while the "no-kill" rule was in effect have been holding onto the hens that are shelling out the eggs, and many of them say they are glad the Food Administration prevented the reduction of flocks.
This unusual production is a big encouragement, as every egg and every fowl can be used to advantage in the present state of the world's food supply.

A. COMPARISON.
Col. George Harvey, editor of the North American Review some time ago undertook to bring about an "adjournment of politics" during at least the present stage of war. His proposal was regarded hopefully by a good many astute people though some saw possibilities in it. After receiving encouragement from many high quarters, however the colonel took it up directly with the republican and democratic chairmen writing an identical letter to them in which he suggested a conference. The aim of the conference would be to reach a patriotic understanding so that the principal endeavor of both parties at the fall congressional election would be to "swat" disloyalties. Both the democratic and republican chairmen answered. Said Mr. Hays the Republican:
"I have your note and I like the idea. Anything I can do to keep politics out of this war I stand ready to do. While of course as you point out, we cannot go past a certain point, I believe something to this end might be achieved by a discussion of your suggestion, and with that purpose in mind I will gladly keep any appointment that may be convenient to you and Mr. McCormick. Another thing occurs to me doubtless has to you—that our meeting in this way might make more surely effective our determination to whack any disloyal head that may show up."
Said Mr. McCormick, the Democrat:
"I want to assure you that the suggestions you have made will have my most careful consideration, and I thank you for writing me."
Since that time some six weeks have passed but Mr. McCormick has not yet finished his considering. Col. Harvey is reluctant to draw the conclusion that the Republicans are willing to play the political game above board and that the Democrats while loudly talking about nonpartisanship, are resolved to be partisans under cover to the end. What seems more reasonable and presumably it has not escaped Col. Harvey's keen intelligence, is that the proposal was doomed from the beginning so far as the administration is concerned because it was Col. Harvey who made it. In other words a suggestion by Col. Harvey is about as sure of meeting a favorable reception in administration quarters as a recommendation—especially if it is a good one by Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood.
THE SOLDIER BOY SMOKES
The government's inclusion of tobacco among the rations issued to the soldiers does not seem to be meeting with unanimous sanction from people who hope to see them win the war. At a conference of ministers of a leading denomination held in an Iowa city recently, resolutions were adopted protesting against the issuance of cigars or tobacco by the government of Red Cross to the soldiers. The resolutions were emphatic for adherence of the church to the attitude maintained in matters of this kind before the war.
It is apropos to refer to the request of Schwab to refrain from interference with the practices of men engaged in shipbuilding so that the productiveness of their labor may not be affected adversely. From a purely industrial standpoint and for the purpose of bringing the best possible date, he would not impose new restrictions on shipyard workers. He would let well enough alone, and, casting aside for the present at least questions affecting the habits of men, bend every energy to the development of their efficiency.
Gen. Pershing who may be depended upon for the maintenance of moral standards among his men has been an advocate of smokes for the soldiers. He has observed the sol-
diers. He has observed the soldiers' spirit under varying conditions and his policies in the treatment of men are the result of well thought out conclusions. He knows the value of the morale of an army. With these things in mind he has not hesitated to let the soldiers have their smokes and their sweets. He will not sacrifice their resources of mind and body now will he commit them to deterioratin practices, but he wants them at their best as fighting men. For the time being, it will be the policy of the commander in the field to develop an army of fighting men and when the conquering heroes return they will be ready to take their places among the good citizens and help stimulate the forces that men in the zeal of abstract thought at home are now contending for.
In the mean time Pershing's boys will continue to be good soldiers and good Americans while enjoying their smokes.
THE NEGRO DOING HIS PART.
Without any great urging and at most times at a sacrilege the Negro measures up full and free to all of his country's needs during these perilous times. He has given the flower of the manhood of the race to the army, he has cheerfully subscribed for Liberty Bonds at each and every call, he has bought Thrift Stamps, contributed to the Red Cross and is now standing eagerly awaiting the next demands. We fee we have done right in helping our country. We are willing and anxious to do all that can be done to make the world really safe for democracy. And a fit habitat for all races of people.
There is far from general approval of the tobacco ration among the soldiers. Indeed, if reports are true there is a vast amount of grousing on the score that ration is too small.
Now it is Maj. Theodore Roose-

The correct name of the first commander of the regiment is Ranald S. Mackenzie. As corporal Rollin states, he was a man of superb character and bearing. The present generation has almost forgotten him. His memory should be preserved. He was a captain of the 184th, graduated from West Point, and was a subaltern officer in the Regular Army prior to the Civil War. During that war he was detailed to the Volunteers, and attained the grade of Major-General of Volunteers. That was why he was called a "General" while in command of the 24th Infantry, after the Civil War. While in command of that regiment his legal office was that of Colonel, U. S. Army. Later he was Colonel of the 4th U. S. Cavalry (white). He was promoted be a Brigadier of the Army, and was returned to the retinue. But about 1880, and he died a few years later. A brief, but inadequate history of his career is to be found in Cullum's biographical register of the graduates of West Point.
General Mackenzie was perhaps our most distinguished Indian fighters of the post Civil War period, prior to 1880. There is in West Texas a road or train, or once was, locally called the "Mackenzie Trail." No doubt the 24th Infantry had some part in making that trail historic. There has been some recent question as to the exact location of it. Possibly some of the old members of the 24th could tell.

Whittaker, pastor of the St. John Baptist Church, received a telegram calling him and his brothers to Gravel Hill, Tenn., to the bedside of their dying father, Mr. H. K. Whittaker. But on their arrival the sad newes was broken to them, that the Death Angel had been there and taken their only parent, their mother having been dead about 26 years.
Mr. H. K. Whittaker was about 70 years of age. He leaves to mourn their loss a wife, a sister, seven daughters, five sons, about 12 grand children and a host of friends. Our loss is but heaven's gain. He was an old citizen of Macon Co., and had made for himself quite a number of friends both white and olored. The whole community feels their loss. Rev. W. H. Whittaker has the heart-left sympathy of his members and friends throughout the city. We pray that he will consider that the will of the Lord must de bone. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh blessed be the name of the Lord.

TABERNACLE BAPTIST CHURCH
NOTES.
Sunday June 30. Sunday school opened at 9:30 a.m., with a good attendance of members present. At 11 30 a.m., the funeral services of Mrs. Flora Bell Boyd Dunnivan was held at the church in the presence of a large number of friends and relatives. Flora Bell grew up in the Sunday school of Tabernacle Baptist Church. She was converted under the pastorate of Rev. H. M. Burns and was a beloved member of the church at the time of her death. Knowing how vain is the helps of man, we can only commend the bereaved mother to him who doeth all things well. The funeral services was conducted by her pastor, Rev. H. M. Burns. The many beautiful floral designs testified how well she was loved. Sunday night, Rev. Killcree preached taking for his text, Prov. 44:23. Next first Sunday Rev. Burns will baptize after morning service. The candidates are asked to be at the church at 11:30 a.m.
Sunday afternoon at communion service, the pastor will fill his pulpit. The subject of his discourse will be, "The Lord's Table and the Lord's Guest." We are extending a hearty welcome to all the strangers with in our gates to come and join us in our service of worship.
Tabernacle Baptist Church rally was a decided success and has surpassed all previous efforts of the church. No account of illness, the pastor was unable to start his campaign as early as usual, which gave the chairmans only two months to raise their money. He requested that each chairman bring in $100. Two much credit can not be given to the chairmans for the untiring effort that they put forth to reach the desired goal that they were amply paid for all sacrifice of time or money that
was made was proven by the smiles
the wreathed her faces
the total amount
total suit to $106.00 chairmen:
Since then some of the chairmans that did not quite reach the $100 mark had money turned in with their cards that married them beyond the mark. We would feel it amiss were we not to commend our members out of the city for their loyalty they are showing to the church by doing their bit. We feel assured that being so near the one thousand dollar mark we will reach it when all reports are in. Under the leadership of our beloved pastor, Rev. H. M. Burns, we are moving on. Never in the history of the church has its future prospects been so bright. God has wonderfully blessed us. Th efollowing is the amount brought in by the chairmen:
Mr. Ben Thomas, President of the Young Men's Literary Debating Club, $183
Sunday school, Mr. H. Morgan,
Superintendent, $120.
B. Y. P. U., Mrs. B. Rucker, President, $100.
Circle No. 1, Mrs. O. Morton, chairman, $88.20.
Circle No. 2, Mrs. E. Evans, chairman, $140.
Circle No. 4, Mrs. B. Gordon, chairman, $9.27.
Circle No. 5, Mrs. O. Beach, chairman, $9.51.
Circle No. 6, Mrs. L. Arledge, chairman, $94.
COMPOSES NEW WAR SONG
"Over the Top With Jesus" is the title of a new song, the words and music of which were composed by Mr. George L. Johnson, formerly of the world-famous Williams Singers, now in charge of the religious work bureau, with headquarters in the local Y. M. C. A. building on 12th street. Many of the musical critics of the city-have heard the song and are delighted with the sentiment and melody of the composition, which is something of an original, unique and pleasing departure from the usual crop of stereotyped war songs. It has been described by many as "a song with a future," and the talented young musician and author is being congratulated on this contribution to the repertoire of songs expressing lofty religious sentiment in terms of the present world struggle.

It is no sense a "charity," but covers a field of broad and deep usefulness in the matter of advice, legal and business of counsel and friendly protection. The training and leadership assumed by the Red Cross; it means to maintain for the soldier and sailor the standards of family life set by him, before the call of his country demanded that he lay down family responsibilities.

A PLEASING VISITOR TO THE CITY.
JOHN H. HARRIS
REV. C. L. McALLISTER, A. M., B. D.
Rev. C. L. McAllister, former president of Nelson Merry College is in the city. Rev. McAllister was called to the city on business of importance. When seen last night by a Globe reporter, he refused to reveal his mission or to talk about his sudden appearance after so long an absence. He was seen at State Normal and at Hadley Park yesterday, and again last night in the lobby of the Y. M. C. A.
Rumor has it in the air that he is seeking the presidency of roger Williams University. If this report is true, there could not be a man who is better acquainted or who is better qualified to handle this important position than Rev. McMister. His experience as president of Nelson Merry College, as teacher at Roger Williams University, and his close association with former president Winsend would make him the logical candidate for important position of honor and trust with the Baptist acquaintance with the Baptist of the state, and his general knowledge of the field work would make him a very able contender for this particular field of labor.

Special features of this program were the playing of Miss Talley a very young lady who has finished the musical course of Fisk University and the solos of Miss Geneva Bender, a soloist of national reputation and Mr. W. S. Ellington Jr., a student of Fisk University.
The growth both financially and spiritually of the First Baptist Church East Nashville during the pastorate of Rev. W. S. Ellington has been phenominal. This church and its congregation who representing one the old and mark of Baptist advertisement in the city, had for a number of years before Dr. Ellington took charge, suffered numerous viciousities and set backs. The greater part of the congregation had become very much discouraged and the future of the church looked very dark. Rev. Ellington brought to the church just the necessary amount of Christian energy and spirituality to enable them to gain courage and resume the place among first rank churches to which they were entitled.
It is interesting to note that all the debts that hung like a pall over the church have been paid and at the evening service Sunday, the mortgage was burned before the audience by Trustee H. L. Fite.

PRESIDENT-ELECT DR; J. A.
ee TONES MAKES STATEMENT
‘Turner College being a public on
stitution, in which the general public
is more or less concerned, it is ntting
and proper that, on account of what
appears to be a confuseil state of af-
fairs anent the presidency, that a
statement should be made, setting
forth true conditions. ‘The trustee
bovrd, at the annual session In May,
more ‘than a month ago, elected a
gentleman to the presidency, to fll
the place made vacant by the death
of br, L. J. Johnson, ‘This gentleman
made application for the — position,
and followed his application up with
@ number of strong endorsements,
recommendations, letters of intro-
duction, ete., all of which stamped
him as’a very superior man for the
position. I had previously declared
that my name would under no cir-
cumstances, be allowed to go before
‘the board for re-eiccton. ‘Three
‘names were brought pecore the elec:
‘tion committee, I being a member of
‘that committee, 1 succeeded tn hav-
ing a certain minister of the state
presented for election, jit the nom-
ination met with defeat, and the gen-
tleman—a layman—trom — Missourl,
was elected. He was informed: by
wire, of his election.
When the Board met five weeks
jiater, no one had received a reply
[stating whether or not the new
| president had accepted the position
which he had asked for. ‘The Board,
Bishop B. F. Lee, presiding, felt that
sufficient time had been given in
which to receive such Information.
After: deliberating for half a day,
transacting business for the incom-
ing scholastic year, the board pro-
‘ceded to hold another election, after
declaring the office vacant,
‘A committee on election was ap:
pointed, clothed with plenary power.
Thad no idea that my name was to be
considera, since I had repeatedly
protested against such a thing being
done. When I was informed that |
was elected, it was a distinct shock
to me—a shock, because 1 was s¢
greatly surprised.
Certainly, I must confess that |
feel highly complimented and great.

‘ago, even then against the protest o|
many. I again refused the positior
at the regular session of the boar
in May. I still protested against th
use of my name at the meeting it
June, But my brethren, by thel
vote, said I must serve, ‘There is n
alternative. If a man is drafted
there is nothing else to do but sur
render.
T wish to say, that as soon as |
‘can get matters adjusted on my dls.

THE AMERICAN WORKINGMEN
AND THE WAR
Behind our fighting Army in
France is our great industrial arm;
frames ome, “Bvery work, every
wage earner, has a great opportunity
to perform a national service, He
can speed up his production of mater-
jal, he can economize in consump-
tion, and lessen the drain on our re-’
sources, leaving the more for our
Army and our allies, and with the
resultant saving by purchasing Lib-
erty Bonds and War Savings Stamps
he can help finance his country at
war.
‘And the workingmen of America
are doing their duty—are, as Presl-

CONVERSION OF LIBERTY BONDS
Liberty Bonds of the first and sec-
‘ond {issues and those obtdned by
converting bonds of the first issue
into 4 per cent bonds can be con-
verted Into 4% ‘percent Liberty bonds
during the six months’ period begin-
ning May 9 and ending November 9,
1918. The new bonds will be dated
May 9, 1918,
‘After November 9, 1918, no fur-
ther rights of conversion will attach
to the 4 per cont bonds, elther the
original bonds of the second loan or
those obtained by conversion of bonds
cf the first loan, All of the 4% per
‘ent bonds are nonconvertable,
Bonds for conversion may be sur-
rendered at any Federal reserve bank
or at the Treasury Department. Reg.
{istered bonds must be assigned to the
Secretary of the Treasury for con-
version, but such assignment need
not be ‘witnessed.
‘On conversion of registered bonds
registered bonds only will be deliver.
ed, neither change of ownership nor
‘change into coupon bonds being per-
mitted.
‘Coupon bonds, however, may be
converted into registered bonds upon
request, Coupon bonds must have th

attached, Coupon bonds issued fron
conversion will have only four inter
est*coupons attached, and later mus
be exchanged for new bonds with th
full number of coupons attached.
THE PRESIDENT ON REVENUE
LEGISLATION
Only fair, equitably distributed
taxation of the widest incidence and
drawing chiefly from, the sources
which would be likely to demoralize
credit by their very abundance can
prevent, inflation and keep our in-
dustrial system free of speculation
and waste. We shall naturally turn,
therefore, I suppose, to war profits
‘and Incomes and luxuries for the ad-
ditional taxes,
But the war profits and Incomes
upon which the increased taxes will
be levied will be the profits and in-
comes of the calendar year 1918. It
would be manifestly unfair to wait
until the early months of 1919 to say
what they are to be. It might be dif.
ficult, I should imagine, to run the
mill with water that’ had already
gone over thé wheel.
Moreover, taxes of that sort wil
not be paid until the June of nex!
year and the Troasury must antict

Address to Congress.’

DON'T LEAVE SCHOOL OR COL-
LEGE NEXT YEAR, FOR THE
NATION NEEDS EDUCATED
MEN AND WOMEN
“Boys and girls, young men and
‘women stout make thelr plans Now
‘on with thelr editeation next
year—they should not consider’ re-
maining out of school to enter into
other dedulte war service,” declared
‘Dr. P. P, Claxton, Commissioner of
Education,
“The expertonee of European eotin-
tries since the beginning of the world
[war has led not only tele eduentors
[but thor statosmen as well to empha-
size the great importance of main-
resting 10 vonos sa aeatly ue pe
ible at the full measure of efficiency
‘and of keeping the children In school
“When the war began four yeurs
ago, somo or all of these countries
Permitted children to leave school to
enter the Industries connected direct-
ly or indirectly with the war service,
But they soon discovered their mis-
take and have since done all that
they can to correct it. Through per-
sonal representatives from — these
countries and. through correspond-
ence the Bureau of Education and
other educational offices in the United
States have been urged to do all they
can to prevent the people of this
country from making the mistake
made by European countries.
“This has been the policy of our
office and of the whole administration
in Washington from the day war was
declared, ‘The President has urgod
that no child should have fewer or
poorer opportunities for education be:
cause of the war. The Secretaries of
War, Navy, Interior, Agriculture, La-
bor, and Commerce have urged that
children should remain in school,
and have approved the constant ap-
‘peals of the Commissioner of Educa-
tion for full attendance in schools of
all grades, including high schools,
normal schools, colleges and universi-
tles. It is generally admitted that
this will make for strength in war
and for the preparation needed by
our people for the great tasks of
peace when the war Is over.
“The war task is great and will
require for its completion the united
efforts of all our people, but we need
not and must not grind our seed corn,
Patriotism demands a full acceptance
of this policy and close and constant
‘adherance to it.”

‘Women who have been accepted by

The recently appointed unit of Signal
Corps operators was billeted in New
York on the Young Women’s Chris-
tian Association. ‘The girls were
lodged on the twelfth floor of the na~
tional headquarters building where
barracks are reserved for girls going
into war service. One of the largest
priyate schools in New York City
has offered accommodations for 50 of
the government women workers
during the absence of its pupils,
‘The young women who compose

Mr. W. F. Trotman of New York’
E oltge who has Boor in: Nasbviie tor
% Wook oF more, is President of the:
National Industria! Leabue of Ameri.
‘€a which was organized here a month
‘OF more ago by, Mr, M. I. Sobol of New |
York City.
‘A representative of the Globe nad!
tho pleasure of meeting Mr. Trotman |
‘end secured from him the following}
dnformation regarding the League: |
‘The first question asked Ar. ‘Trot
gan Was “How are you impressed
with what you have seen of Nash-
ville?”
His reply was as follows: |
“I think st a picturesque and mag:
aificent cily, and specially blest with
educational ‘facilities. have also
found encouraging conditions for the
evelopment of needle industry or
arment making. ‘The railroad tact-|
ties are good, and a higher grade ot
intelligence can be obtained here thart
4a most of our Southern ities. Not
‘only 0, but higher salaries are paid
for experts in that work than the peo-
ple of Nashville are now getting.”
+ The second question, “Would you
aind giving for publication in the
Globe the purpose of the Industrial
League?"
“Tho-National Industrial League
has for its object the training and
employment of Negro labor in indus-
ial enterprises owned and controlled
by colored people; and to co-operate
‘with Hebrew industry which is now
4n control of that field and market,
from whom encouraging assis.
ce has already been received. We
Pelieve that the opportunity for the
~golored man to become a producer is
here, but we are not satisfied to know
that due to the scarcity of labor col-
red people are being employed in
places where previously they had no
opportunity. We desire to guarantee
them omployment by owning and
‘operating factories thus retaining for
our investors the huge profits which
~auch industries enjoy.”
The third question was “How dovs
one become a member and to what
does membership entitle him?”
“Membership may be attained in
either of two ways; first, a fee of
$28.50 makes one a member. ‘This
Dayment is increased to a bond by the
additional sum of seventy-five cents
Per month until $100.00 18 paid. Then
the bond bears 7 per cont fuiterest for
five years, at the expiration of which
time the principal is returned to the
member, while at the same time such
member continues to own his share
in the League and its business inter-
ests. ‘The $23.50 makes one a non.
voting member, but it gives him ihe
privilege of learning the trade and
obtaining employment in the factory,
and sharing in the profits of the busi.
ness, When the bond is secured such
ersons become voting members,
The second method is to purchase
$100.00 bond which runs for five
Years at 7 per cent Interest; at. the
end of which timo the $100.00 is re-
turned to the member. ‘The bond.
holder in any case has all the rights
to whih any member of the League
4s entitled.”
‘The fourth question, “Do you in-
tend to put into operation one of your
factories or shops in this city; if 80,
‘how soon?”

| facturing, and to push the member.

WHY THE SAVINGS PLEDGE.
During the present intensive War
Savings campaign we are asked by
the President and by Secretary Me-
Adoo to pledge ourselves to save and
with our savings to buy at definite
times a. speciiic amount of War
Savings Stamps. Why should we be
called upon to do this and why should
we do it?
We are calleé upon to do’ it be-
eauge, a8 Prcsilont Wilson says, this
fs a-war of na:ions, not of armies,
and everyone tn tre land must do
is share. So for more than 2,090,000
Men have gone into! the Army and
Navy and- 1,009,000 more ar to join
before Aurtst 1. ‘Those 2,000,000
men give themselves as thoir dona.
ton to the war. ‘The remaining
97,000,000 people teft at home inust
give something cise as their share.
This saving plodse cives the stay-
athomés an opportunity for service
We are asked to pledge ourselves to
faye and economize, to use labor
and materisls only as necessity. de-
Mans, And to invest our savings In
‘War Savinzs Stamps.
‘The Covernment asks us to do
this because the amount of labor an
materials in the country {s Imited;
there 1s not enough of ether to per-
mit us to use 't in the same treo way

Extract From Resolutions Adopted
The following is extract from the Resolutions adopted by the conference:
"We, the thirty-one representatives of the Negro press, which has a circulation of more than n ambition copies, principally among the colored people of America, and representatives of other activities, wish to affirm first of all, OUR ALTERNABLE BELIEF THAT THE DEFEAT OF THE DEFEAT OF THE CONFERENCE AND WHAT IT TODAY REPRESENTS IS OF PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE TO THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD IN GENERAL AND TO OUR PEOPLE IN PARTICULAR
"We deem it hardly necessary, in view of the unturnished record of Negro Americans to reaffirm our loyalty to Our Country and our readiness to make every sacrifice to win this war. We wish, however, as students and guides of public opinion among our people, to use our every people at the highest of these 12,000,000 people at the highest level, not simply of passive loyalty, but of active, enthusiastic and self-sacrificing participation in the war.
"We are not unmindful of the recognition of our American citizenship in the draft, of the appointment of colored officers, of the resignation colored officers or the resignation ment departments, and to other indications of a broadened public opinion, nevertheless we believe today that justifiable grievances of the colored people are producing not disloyalty, but an amount of unrest and bitterness which even the best efforts of their leaders may not be able always to guide unless they can have the active and sympathetic co-operation of the National and State government among us is powerless against us as powerless as the apparent indifference of our own Government may be dangerous * * *
"The American Negro does not expect to have the whole Negro problem settled immediately; he is not seeking to holdup a striving country and a distracted word by pushing irrelevant personal grievances as a price of loyalty; he is not disposed to catalogue, in this tremendous crisis, all his complaints and disabili-
ties; he is more than willing to do his full share in helping to win the war for democracy and he expects his full share of the fruits thereof—but he is today compelled to ask for that minimum of consideration which will enable him to be an efficient fighter for VICTORY."
Social and Educational Diversions.
To enliven the occasion for the distinguished visitors a local committee of citizens provided a series of entertainments, which included, among other interesting things, a theater party of fifty at the Howard Theater, Wednesday evening to witness the presentation of "The Divorce Question" by the Quality Amusement Company of New York City; a smoker and luncheon on Thursday evening in the assembly room of the 12th Street Y. M. C. A., with Attorney W. L. Houston as tomasterst; and a tour of the city Friday afternoon in sightseeing automobiles, covering views of the parks and public buildings, and the schools, churches, business houses and homes of Colored Washingtonians.
On Thursday afternoon Capt. Arthur S. Spingarn presented at the Army Medical Museum a highly instructive moving picture, entitled "Fit to Fight," emphasizing the value of physical health in the army and depicting the dangers to which soldiers are exposed. The master of disease and dissipation, with suggestions for recreational centers and other agencies for wholesome and moral diversions for the soldiers in camps and cantonments.

DR. J. A. JONES AGAIN AT THE HEAD OF. TURNER COLLEGE.
Extra Session of Executive Board-
List of Reviewed
Organizations Drafted
At a special meeting of the executive board of Turner College, Shelbyville, last Thursday, Dr. J. A. Jones, ex-president, was re-elected to the presidency of the institution. The election came as a complete surprise to Dr. Jones, since he was not only entirely out of the race for the position, but had repeatedly refused to have his name used in that connection ever since the death of Dr. Johnson, when applications began coming in for the position. It seems that Mr. B. F. Allen, of Missouri, who was elected by the board in May, failed, up to the time of the meeting of the board, to give satisfactory evidence concerning his acceptance of the position, so the election proceeded, resulting in the choice of Dr. Jones. This is the third time that Dr. Jones has been called to the presidency of this institution. He has always given eminent satisfaction, and this continuous call to this very responsible position, gives evidence that he is no doubt, considered the most capable man in the state for the place.
When Dr. Jones went to Turner College a few years ago, the school was hardly known even among the members of his own denomination who were supposed to be supporting it. In fact, it was more of a school on paper only, than a respectable institution of learning. When he resigned last year, after a period of twelve years service, Turner College was ranking conspicuously among the best schools of the church throughout the connection.
Dr. Jones was appointed presiding elder of the North Nashville District at the last session of the Tennessee conference and was held in the city ever since. It is said that he has not fully decided to accept the presidency, until some details concerning the work are gone over, but it is the hope of many, especially the former patrons, the trustees and even the white citizens of Shelbyville, that he will accept the place and bring the school again to its former high standing.
In speaking of this new relation, Dr. Jones said, "Words cannot express how much I appreciate these continued honors thrust upon me by my brethren, but I had considered myself retired from the field of pedagogics, and had made up my mind to spend the rest of my time as simply a "Methodist preacher," but I have always tried to obey the behest of my church. However, I mean to stay on my present job, as presiding elder till I fill out the present quarter, and hold my district conference, which meets July 10th. But after that I suppose I will go after students." I have more to write later.
The following teachers were retained on the faculty, while two were left out for cause: Prof. R. P. Purdy, Mrs. Loussina Ross, Mrs. Mary G. Saunders, Mrs. L. C, Ransom and Mrs. A. M. Johnson.
AMERICAN BEAUTY CLUB
The American Beauty Club met at the home of Mrs. H. C. Rye, 655 Allison St., June 26th. The meeting was presided over by the president, Mrs. D. E. Alexander.

Smith, pastor of the church, Bishop I. A. Scott and D. W. S. Ellington. All spoke effectively and laid stress on the need of true prayer, that came from a heart right with God. Hearts were lifted up and stirred with zeal go up and do this work. Prof Gracewhite offered prayer. Mrs. Josie Henderson sang, "I'm a child of the King."
The chairmen of the four districts into which the city had been divided, Mrs. A. N. Johnson, Mrs. I. B. Scott, Mrs. G. L. Jackson and Mrs. William Haynes, then took charge of their respective group of workers and made assignments of streets to be canvassed and by whom. There was a large audience present and a great deal of interest and enthusiasm manifested. In addition to the large number at the meeting, many have promised to join in the work though they could not be present at that service. One chairman reported forty such women. Much good is anticipated from this movement and all are urged to pray daily whether "canvassed" or not.
The object specified for prayer at this time are For our soldiers and sailors here and "over there." For purity in the individual life. For power through concerted action. For a righteous peace that will be to the glory of God.
