Nation porat ALL PREVIOUS ARE BROKEN Enthusiasm at Its Heig Banner" Sung Durin onstration by Ove PRESIDENT JONES' A MASTER PIEC Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 4. Never in the history of Negro Baptist workers was there more spiritual enthusiasm injected into a meeting than was shown at the opening of the thirty-eighth annual convention in session here today. A beautiful sitting and a patriotic demonstration was the result of the opening services. The Star Spangled Banner, sung by a chorus of more than two thousand five hundred messengers and representatives from the Baptist Churches throughout the United States. A chorus of two hundred voices lead the singing. American flags were waving and the vast audience sung until it seemed as though of the house being lifted. This was the American after which the chairman of the committee in an eloquent address told of Little Rock's aim and purpose in its effort to entertain the largest gathering of denominational workers in the United States and then surrendered the gavel to Edward P. Jones, D. D. of Vicksburg, Miss., who declared that the thirty-eight annual session had come to order. The meeting at once went into temporary organization and the committees on enrollment and finance which were named at the executive committee meeting at Alexandria, La., were announced and at once retired. These workers are to be in the city five days and the grave matters coming before them will be education, which takes in their Theological and Training School, which has been purchased at Nashville, said to be worth over fifty thousand dollars. It is the purpose to raise at least ten thousand dollars in this session, and the school property will be opened in October. Foreign Missions. Home Missions and State Missions will be the other themes up for consideration. Each of the boards co operating with the convention is to make its report at this session. The president made his annual address to. In it he covered everything facing his people at this peculiar crisis. It was a masterly effort and was delivered in a clear tone. Dr. Jones said in part; "Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, blessed by the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us with all spiritual blessings, in heavenly places in Christ. According as he has chosen us in him before the foundation of the world that we should be holy and without blame before him in love." Ephesians 1:2.4. "Twelve months ago after much consideration, and after we had enjoyed the princely entertainment accorded us by the people of Atlanta, led by on Dr. E. R. Carter, you adjourned to meet here in this, the "City of Roses," where violets, daisies, chrysanthemums and "forget-me-nots" do not die, but live on, gathering strength from the waters of yonder rolling Arkansas. This is a city ideal in its surroundings, with fertile valleys, and smiling hilltops and an occasional breath of mountain air staging and overdoing it founders in all that makes a busy thriving community. Great is Little Rock. Drs. J. P. Robinson, J. S. Ladell, F. H. Cook, D. B. Gaines, R. B. Porter and many others live and add by their work, not only to the spiritual uplift of the city, but send everywhere throughout the state and nation an influence condemnatory of wrong and wickedness. They are voices in the wilderness crying aloud, "Prepare you the way of the Lord make his paths straight." You have come from every part of this country to make sure the everlasting truths, which 2000 years ago shook the plains of Judea and mountains of Gallilee, bullied the masters of Jerusalem, ten thousand furious devils seek the slimy bottom of the deep as their habitat, thus emphasizing that man made in God's image is only following the divine or walking in the King's high-way when in the consciousness of right he furrows the heart and plants therein not thorns of hate, but principles of love. Man falters, and despares when selfishness concludes the laughter and happiness of his soul, and fashions him into the service of a privileged few to the neglect of the less fortunate. The real man, the true man, sees no distinction, but goes forth to the uplift, the reclaim, and in the pathway of the despondent and hopeless brightly beams a ray of mercy, that minimizes evil in difference and magnifies brotherhood and love lives times, as your servant. I have met the sunshine and the rain, the hope ful and the hopeless, the braggart and the modest, the visionist and the blind, the truthful and the false, the shallow and the deep, the honest and the dish honest, the "know all", and the "know nothing." At times I followed the old Spanish trail, as it widened from the foot hills of Alabama and grows grey with the frost of centuries --- NASHVILLE GLOBE. NASHVILLE A CITY OE OPPORTUNITY--THE LEADING NEGRO JOURNAL IN TENNESSEE. History is here illuminated, and feeds the mind, while infestion drops myriads of indescribable handwork finishing in gold the silvery shadows, which flash from the magnolia only to grow in, the pomegranate, standing on the seashore one hand catching the spray, and the other keeping time to the song birds with eyes piercing the endless sky; the busy gardens of native hanging gardens, the old warden, I have hoped for this hour when I might come into this presence and tell you of my stewardship. Whether in my own native state, the Carolinas, Ohio, Pennsylvania or Virginia, every where, because of your position, in all matters germanne and fundamentally constructive with one accord, triumph after triumph has marked our asest. As best I could your record has been unmodified, and I have made the truth and nothing but the truth, and the truth, the darkness has been dispersed many months, the miscarried conception will have disappeared and the unvarnished truth unconcerned save for the good of all mankind stand forth in mighty conquest. The battle of ages fought on Calvary left the King of terrors pierced through and through with his own darts, and until this day his followers are inspired and fight for victory. When honor and Christian integrity are augmented by consistency as well as vision and confidence invincible forces are well geared, and power follows as the night, day. Are you as a Convention armed in the cause of righteousness and are you making permanent the landmarks of the church? Are you steadily adhering to the Golden Rule, and building for time and eternity a character unblemished for love and service? If such is your course, then, I hasten here to order you forward, on, in the pursuit of lifting as you climb. To pull down the outer covering of the great pyramids may be done by the rude Arab, to burn the Alexandrian library may be the work of an ignorant fanatic, to find a spot in the sun, but the possibility even to a little child, the building of the Egyptian writing of the Alexandrian Library, the creating of the sun; demand profound capacity. As men stretch themselves to forward the world's good, they develop. Hope begets hope. Dissent has its mission. The man who protests is always needed, but merely to find fault dwarfs the intellect and imprisons the soul. Constructive work is the most self-expensive that can be done, it is done at the cost of brain and heart, there is always the blood of the builder himself the permanently good is laid stone by welfare and the good of human welfare in the beauty. The glorification of the seed comes only after its death, and it is when the gospel他拿师 pours his energy like water that he brings blessings to his fellows and ennoblement to himself. This principle alone answers to the world's need with provision for that need. Livingstone at the time he went out to Africa proposed not alone to uncover its sores, but also to redress the wrongs. He had in his heart a vision for that benighted continent. He saw commerce developed and white winged merchantly plying the rivers and the sound of civilization breaking the deathly silence, save for the barking of a wild dog, and the hissing of a million poisoned fish. Home was him as dear life was swallowed up in the economy and longings of his soul he neither to the right nor to the left, but faced the storm with ax in hand and God to lead; he dared have a mission, made it known, knew he was right, went forth to do or die and our blessed Christ made perfect the plans of salvation only through his death and resurrection. Today we stand at the 38th mile-stone. The fathers long since gathered to their reward built wiser than their knew. Some linger here today with us and in their honored presence, now entreat you to consider whether or not your premises are tenable. Revolutions do not go backward, the always move forward. Judaism was transformed into universalism. If I am not mistaken at Chicago, in 1915, and the Minutes of the incorporated conventions will so show, a majority of the messengers refused to sustain a ruling made by the presiding officer. A majority time and time again declared that they would not submit to any form of charter making a national church, that the New Testament and its teachings were of sufficient force and effect, that through it and by it and with it for centuries we had striven to reach the promise we were now too far up the road to look back. It be remonumphed here that worse and more heretic were the purposes underlying this. They went into the Courts of Cook County and asked that we be enjoined from holding a Convention or using the name NASHVILLE, TENN., FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1918. O! Say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilights last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars thro' the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watch'd were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs busting in air, Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there; 'Tis the star-spangled banner, O! long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! On the shore, dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep, Where the foes' haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream; O thus be it ever when freemen shall stand Between their loved homes and war's desolation; Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land Praise the pow'r that has made and preserved us a nation, Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto, "In God is our trust." National Baptist Convention. When this was demurred out of court, they took an appeal which lays dormant and unprosecuted. Without sanction but seeking to control the only asset of the denomination, and thus take from our Publishing Board that which you entrusted to them and for which they have shown unsurpassed ability to manage, the majority of the Baptists in America, then and now denounce the usurpation, and the report to be submitted by our esteemed chairman, Dr. C. H. Clark, and our beloved venerable Secretary, Dr. R. H. Boyd, will add emphasis to my statement, by showing an increase in business each year since they went off. The ideals of this Board are in perfect unison with this Convention, and it is doing religious, benevolent and constructive work commendable and enduring, and my opinion has been strengthened as more and more I study its work. A National Convention great and expansive in its information and inspiration is grievous because handicapped to the people it cannot train to reach development, training and refinement. To these elements this convention and our Board thank God take courage and go on. The hand that seeks to destroy this mammoth plant and idly send abroad its employees, when yesterday from every hill top and valley it was raised unto God in declaring all is well, cannot again become a power in the province of righteousness without making amends.

It remains for you after thirty-five years of oratory and promise to give shape and form to a National Theological Seminary and Training School. It stands wonder awaiting only your willingness to clear the way, that souls may be fixed, hearted and tongues simplified. The gospel must be preached, a trained ministry should be your contribution to the world's present and future evangelism. Will you heed the cause or follow the path of ease? With confidence in you and hope that you are ready to cross the Rubicon, a recommendation follows, which I hope you will approve. In keeping with your expressed command your special committee went to Washington and took up with the Executive Secretary of the Council of Federated Churches of America, the appointment of Chaplains for the Army. I am under many obligations to Dr. Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Dr J. C. Austin of Pittsburgh, Dr H. T. S. Messer of Pittsburgh, Dr R. H. Bolling of Norfolk, Va.; and Dr. E. W.

GALA TIME LABOR DAY At Hadley Park--- Ten Thouand People Present SPLENDID PROGRAM FEATURE Labor Day was celebrated at Hadley Park, Monday with more than ten thousand people in attendance. Mr. A. N. Johnson, president of the Board of Trade presided and made introductory remarks. Lieut. Coon, commanding officer of the student soldiers at Flak University spoke in high terms of the progress made by the boys in this care. He said that he felt sure the Negro soldiers would come up to the standard set, and that they had always done so. The men in training had marched through Star-Spangled Banner u see, by the dawn's early light dilly we hailed at the twilights b stripes and bright stars thro' the arts we watch'd were so gallant 's red glare, the bombs bustin ro' the night that our flag was CHORUS. angled banner, O! long may it be of the free and the home of the dimly seen thro' the mists of the trees' haughty host in dread silence which the breeze, o'er the tower blows, half conceals, half discovers the gleam of the morning's first reflected, now shines on the street ver when freemen shall stand in loved homes and war's desolate cry and peace, may the heav'n swir' that has made and preserves we must, when our cause it is our motto, "In God is our t —FRANCIS the streets from Fisk University to the park singing patriotic songs and aroused the crowds with whom they came in contact. They drilled, marched and played games as worked out in their daily training. The president of the Board of Trade turned the program over to the welfare committee of the Negro Council of defense. Mrs. Lyon Childress, chairman of the welfare committee of the white Council of Defense was present and faltered at length. She pledged herself to assist in any way possible the efforts of the Negro workers. Elizabeth Kelly, who is the Negro welfare chairman, presided and read the message of the President of the United States in favor of the great child welfare celebration to be held all over the country. Dr. M. E. Coleman made a stirring talk and asserted that the Negro women would not be satisfied until a home had been secured for delinquent girls of the race. Dr. Coleman is the chairman of the Negro Council of Defense. Mrs. J. F. Pierce, one of the most earnest war workers among the Negro people, gave a history of the work in hand and paid tribute to the women who are making such a good showing among the Negro workers. Davis School band, both male and female, furnished music. A costumed march of children, representing soldiers, Red Cross nurses, states and farmettes, was a special feature of the program. The Goddess of Liberty and patriotic drills, together with the singing of patriotic songs, were notable features. Prizes were awarded the best developed baby, the second best and the most popular baby on the grounds. A prize was also given J. P. Porter and wife for having the largest number of children under 16. There are seven children under 16 in this family. The first-prize baby weighed 44 pounds at eight months, while the second-prize baby weighed 21 pounds at five'. Louise Bostic recited Dunbar's "Colored Soldier," and "What Will you do, Uncle Sammie?" Judge J. Madison Weld delivered the principal address and sald in par. "I think the progress you have made is wonderful. I do not believe there is any other race that has made the same progress under like circumstances. You have a long way to come, however. Adhere to the marriage vows; do not be so quick to be divorced; make every wayward girl or boy your boy or your girl.

In conclusion Judge Wells stated that he was in favor of the juvenile court, and that he loved the black boy as well as the white boy, and was a judge of them both. Many of the employees of the Government powder plant arrived in the city early in the day. The streets were crowded, as were the movies during the day. Greenwood park was largely attended. Special music and all attractions running gave entertainment to the throngs that went out during the day. During the past weeks, Mrs. M. F. Flowers of Chattanooga, Tenn., and Mrs. Jackson of Little Rock, Ark., have been the guests of Mrs. M. H. Flowers at the Fireside School. Mrs. Jacvkson is matron in Little Rock and is doing a splendid work there. She stayed a few days and Mrs. Flowers made a longer visit. By Secretary Boyd of the National Baptist Publishing Board--Fiscal Near Just Ended Shows $10,000 Increase. SACRIFICE OF LABORERS TO FIGHT HUNS HAS BEEN GREAT HOLDBACK Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 13th—Nearly two hundred thousand dollars worth of business was reported by Rev. R. B. Boyd, D. D., the secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board is his annual report read before the National Baptist Convention in session in this city today. It was an increase of more than ten thousand dollars over the volume of business done for the fiscal year ending August 31, 1917. It has been considered by all leaders in the ranks of National Baptist Publishing Board's plant at Nashville has attracted more attention than any other enterprise conducted by the religious side of the convention. It is a plant employing a large number of young men and women who do skilled labor. Dr. Boyd in making his report no only told of the work done for the past year, giving the millions of copies of periodicals distributed and the hundreds of thousands of letters received and answered but he went to the office and the executive side of the convention. The report was in pamphlet form and it showed that within twenty-one years enough Sunday School literature and religious tracts with denominational books had been distributed to make Baptists, if literature would make them, out of every member of the race. In the report this giant oak in the Baptist forest, as he is proclaimed Miss Luella Hoyle, the stenographer for the Foireis School, is having her vacation. During this time occurred a great event, when Miss Hoyle ceased to be in becoming the bride of Mr. Oscar A. Childress. The wedding took place at the bride's home on the evening of August 28th, when a large company of friends gathered to witness the occasion. Mr. Childress is a senior at Meharry Medical College. All who know the young woman extend to them their heartiest good wishes. For the present Mrs. Childress will continue with the Fireside School. Miss Ada F. Morgan is making a short trip in the interest of the Fireside School. She will stop in St. Louis, attend the Convention and present the work there. From that point she will go to her home in Indiana for a part of her vacation. Mrs. M. H. Flowers is in St. Louis, attending the Convention. Miss Grace M. Eaton is in Little Rock and will attend the Convention there. Miss Austa Morgan has gone to her home in Indiana where she will spend some weeks. Miss Mamie Braden is stopping at Miss Eaton's home in Flat Rock for a short time. WOMEN'S NATIONAL PRAYER BATALLION. Attention is called to the meetings of the Women's National Prayer Battalion which are held every Thursday moning at the colored Y. M. C. A. in the room of the Colored Branch of the Women's National Council of Defense. This is on Cedar Street on the street floor and plainly marked.

He touched upon the war conditions and showed that the institution he had the honor to preside over was not only serving the denomination and the race, but had contributed their bit towards sending men into the army to but the for world's denomination. He swept the Commission off its feet when he told them of the sacrifice the institution had made to help win the war. "Our service flag hangs in the main office-and by this time, perhaps, has twenty-two stars. We are not only fighting shn and Satan, but we are fighting the Huns and Persianism. With God's help we are going to win both battles." Dr. Boyd showed the total receipts and disbursements of the institution in twenty-one years to be $2,800,932.97; number of letters received and answered in twenty-one years 4,597,325; number of periodicals sent to the various Sunday schools in twenty-one years as 159,756,688.

PHILLIPS LEAVE FOR CALIFORNIA. Wedding Simple and Impressive St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 6—Bishop C. H. Phillips of Nashville, Tenn., and Miss Ella beeks of Cleveland, Onio were married here Aug. 25, by Rev. N. J. Wacobs of Kansas City and Rev. N. L. Smith of St. Louis. The wedding ceremony was performed at the residence of Dr. and Mrs. C. H. Phillips, Jr., and was witnessed by many personal friends of the Phillips Family. Miss Lady Emma Louise Phillips sweetly sang, "Beloved it is Morn" after which Bishop Phillips accompanied by his son, Dr. C. H. Phillips and Miss Ella Cheeks with her brother Mr. Elmer Cheeks of Detroit, Mich, wended their way to the nautilal mure where the happy union was effected. Mrs. Clifford Evans played Mendelsohn's Wedding March. Bishop and rMs. Phillips received numerous letters and telegrams of congratulations and valuable tokens from friends all over the country. Immediately after the marriage, Bishop C. H. Phillips and daughter Emma Louise, left for California and other points west. The house was beautifully decorated with palms and the season's choice cutflowers. The wedding ceremony was simple and was pronounced one of the most impressive and beautiful over witnessed in St. Louis. Among the out of town visitors present were Dr. J. T. Phillips, Mrs. J. H. Hale and Mrs. Bessie Morrison Nashville, Tenn; Mr. Samuel Rivers, Chicago, Ill.; Mr. Elmore Checks, Detroit, Mich.; Rev. and Mrs. J. W. Jacobs, a kansas City, Mo., and Mr. rMs. Edward Brunner, Oklahoma City. MR. J. W. BOYD OF MASON, TENN. Among the visitors to Nashville recently was Mr. J. W. Boyd of Mason, Tenn., who spent several days in the city on important business. He is one well known citizens of West Tennessee, hailing from Tipton, County. He is an ex-member of the Tennessee Legislature where he served with distinction. At on time he was elected to the stat censure from his Senatorial District, but his friends claimed that even though the election on the face of the returns showed a majority, it is claimed that he was counted out. Mr. Boyd is a member of the old guards and came along in a time when the Negroes were active in state politics. MADAM RESSIE T. P. RHODA Madam Bessie T. P. Rhoda visited Powder Plant Y. M. C. A. and was made welcobe by Mr. Mobray, Mr. and Mrs. Reed, also many of the workmen and their wives. Owing to Rhodao being in such a demand out there it was very necessary for her to pay them a visit. Miss F. Wright of Jefferson Street accompanied the Madam on both visits. Mr. Abe Thompson, father of Madam Rhoda had a joyful time at the United Primitive Baptist Association in Mt. Pleasant, Tenn. He returned last Monday night. Can any one imagine that after the war he finds himself in possession of too many war bonds or war savings stamps? U.S. FOOD ADMINISTRATION IS WHEAT INDISPENSABLE IN OUD DIET? The question naturally arises, however: To what extent can the wheat to which we are now accustomed in our diet be reduced without injury to the health of the individual of the Nation? This question was put by the Food Administration to a committee of experts recently assembled in Washington to consider the special physiological problems involved in the general problem of wheat conservation. Dr. R. H. Chittenden, Professor of Physiological Chemistry and Dean of Sheffield Scientific School, Yale. Dr. Graham Lusk, Professor of Physiology, Cornell University. Dr. E. V. McCullum, Professor of BioChemistry, John Hopkins University. Dr. L. B. Mendel, Professor of Physiological Chemistry, Yale University. C. L. Alsberg, Chief of the Bureau of Chemistry, U. S. Department of Agriculture. Dr. F. C. Longworthy, Chief, Hope Economics Division, State Extension Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture. Dr. Alonzo E. Taylor, Professor of Physiological Chemistry, /University of Pennsylvania. Prof. Vernon Kellogg, Stanford University. Dr. Raymond Pearl, School of Hygiene, John Hopkins University. Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, formerly Dean of the Stanford University Medical School; now President of Stanford University. The committee, as may be seen, was composed of the highest physiological authorities in the country. Their answer to the question was direct and unequivocal. It is the scientific opinion of the committee that in a mixed diet wheat may be entirely replaced, without harm, by other available cereals, namely, rice, barley, oats, and corn. However, we should not recommend this except as an emergency measure. The committee's particular reason for not recommending this, apart from the fact that wheat is perhaps the most convenient cereal for use because of its special qualities connected with the making of bread in loaves that will stand up and remain sweet and palatable for several days, is that going with wheat would be a psychological thought not a physiological deprivation. We are accustomed as a Nation, just as most of the nations of Europe are, to the use of wheat bread, and a sudden break in our custom would have for some people a psychological significance more or less disturbing. However, if these people could well understand the emergency leading to the change, and then could recognize that they are aiding their country in the great emergency by making the change, this psychological disturbance would be much reduced. Exactly this condition of a great national emergency, to meet which the loyal and patriotic efforts of all the people are needed, is the condition to-day. It is only because of this great national emergency that the oFod Administration makes use of this deliberate judgment of the physiological experts called in for advice. Even under these circumstances, it is recognized that because of economic and commercial reasons, not all of the people of America can go without bread based on wheat, but it is certain that a great many people in this country can easily do so. It is the belief of the Food Administration that, for the sake of maintaining the wheat-bread supply for the armies and civilians of our fighting associates in the war, as well as our own soldiers in France, every patriotic American who can possibly do so will be glad to dispense entirely with wheat from now until the next harvest. U. S. FOOD ADMINISTRATION The sugar shortage in our country is so grave that the household allowance was reduced on August 1 to two pounds per person per month. Our soldier and sailors must have all the sugar they need and they can have this amount of sugar if we at home follow the regulations of the Food Administration. It is your patriotic duty to see that your readers understand the situation and to do their part to meet it. We suggest that you make editorial comments on the necessity for the saving of sugar. We know that you can be depended upon to present the case as it is. Urge our people to eat less sugar an dto use instead sorghum, molasses syrup, honey, fruits (fresh and dried). Your readers gave the nation special service by saving wheat, ask them to do equally as well in saving sugar. TO ALL FOOD ADMINISTRATION WORKERS: "We can not administer the 'food problem on the basis one year's war. We must prepare for its long continuance if we are to insure absolute victory," declared the Food Controllers of the United States, France, Italy and Great Britain in a joint resolution adopted at a conference in London. The resolution, which was cabled today to the United States Food Administration, emphasizes the necessity of building up reserves in North America as an insurance against possible crop failures here and elsewhere and the diminution of agricultural labor. The cable follows: "Resolved, that while the increased production of the United States COAL CONSUMERS MUST BUY WINTER SUPPLY NOW Consumers must buy their Winter supply of Coal during the Spring and Summer for storage if Production is to be maintained at a maximum and the country enabled to avoid a serious Coal shortage this Winter MAY-JUNE JULY-AUG U.S. FUEL ADMINISTRATION RAISE A PIG! THIS MOTHER IS RAISING FOUR. render it possible to relax some of the restrictions which have borne with peculiar hardship upon all our peoples; yet it is absolutely necessary that rapid economy and elimination of waste in the consumption and handling of all foodstuffs, as well as increased production, should be maintained throughout the European Allied countries and in North America. It is only by such economy and elimination of waste that the transportation of the necessary men and supplies from North America to the European front can be accomplished and the stocks of foodstuffs can be built up in North America as an insurer against the ever-present danger of hardship and the possible necessity for large and emergency drafts to Europe to cannot administer the food problem on basis of one year's war. We must prepare for its long continuance if we are to insure absolute victory." Before the war, only about 10 per cent of the food deficit in the Allied countries was provided by America. Approximately/ 50 per cent of the Allied deficit was filled last year by the United States and Canada. And from the 1918 crops we will very probably be called upon to supply a much larger proportion of this ever-increasing European deficit. About 500,000 tons of shipping could be delivered we made it possible to withdraw ships to Europe food from Australia, India and South America. Were this done, it would be possible to transport and maintain in France a much larger of American soldiers. Many of the difficulties of convoy could be overcome if the bulk of shipping plied the single lane between Europe and North America. Interpreted in terms of men on the fighting front, every ship diverted from Australia could perform an equivalent service from American ports and in the time it had taken for one round trip from Europe to Australia could make two additional trips from Europe to the United States. In other words, it could furnish Europe with the same amount of food and in the same length of time could make one trip as ship and another to transport addition. With men leaving our farms in ever increasing number to engage in direct war work, we probably see this year the height of our agricultural production. To protect ourselves and the Allies against the inevitable shortage of the future we must take advantage of this year's production to lay by reserves. Although .public eating places such households which voluntarily went to a no-wheat basis earlier in the year have been released from their promise to forego entirely the use of what they must still practice economy. Release from their pledge only places them on the same basis as the rest of the American people. Probably long as the war lasts they must use Victory bread. They must face a rigid economy in other directions. Especially is this true at present in the case of sugar. The American people as a whole are expected to adopt on August 1, an honor ration of two pounds of sugar per person per month. SUGAR SUPPLY. 1. Where does America get her sugar? Cuba—more than one-half. Sugar beet production in the United States—one-seventh. Hawaii—one-eighth. Louisiana—one-twentieth. Porto Rico, the Philippines, Miscellaneous sources—the remainder. 2. Where did the Allies formerly get sugar? France, Italy, and the Low Countries raised their own. England received more than one-half from the Teutonic Empires, imported largely from Java, and got a little from the British West Indies. 3. Where do the Allies now get their sugar? The Central Powers as a source are cut off. Production in Italy and France is only about one-third what it was before the war. They must be spend very largely now upon America sources of supply. 4. Are there no supplies of sugar in the East Indies? There are quantities of sugar in Java and some in other islands; but ship can not be spared for trips to Java while sugar can be obtained elsewhere by one-third the haul. 5. Why is there need to conserve sugar now in this country? To meet the Allied shortage. To release ships formerly used in the sugar trade to carry soldiers and supplies to Europe. To make up the loss of beetle sugar lands and factories captured or destroyed by the Germans in northern France and Italy. Ships which would have kept up the flow of sugar have been sunk. Twenty-six thousand tons of sugar were lost recently in submarine raids upon our Atlantic coast. Fifty thousand tons of sugar-carrying shipping were transferred to meet the requirements of Belgian relief. 6. Is there danger of a sugar famines? No; but there is a shortage as compared with the prewar days when Americans used more than 80 pounds per capita per year. If our people will follow the directions of the Food Administration—liberal compared with the rules of England, France and Italy—these will be sufficient sugar for our needs. 7. How much sugar can each person have? NASHVILLE GLOBE, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 6, 1918. And You are only asked to save and not waste Food BONES SINCE 14 JUST BONES! SIBS FOR, A SHILLING. A MARKET SCENE IN ENGLAND Not more than 2 pounds per month per person (or household use and a limited supply for the necessary preservation of fruit and other foods. The Army and Navy must receive their ration. 8. How is the Food Administration handling distribution of sugar? Use of sugar in manufacturing anything but foodstuffs an explosives has been prohibited; manufacturers of drinks, candy, and other less essentials have been rigidly restricted; the supply of sugar to ice cream makers and bakers has been curtailed. For ordinary household use not more than 2 pounds can be bought at one time for town and city residents, and not more than 5 pounds at one time for country people except at the discretion of the Federal Food Administrator for the State or his deputies. 9. What restrictions have been placed on public eating houses in regard to sugar? For every 90 meals served not more than 2 pounds of sugar may be purchased. 10. Are there other rules? Federal Food Administrators in the various States may make rulings to suit local conditions in regard to sugar for home canning. 11. Are civilians to consider themselves on a denine sugar ration? Yes. They are in honor bound to use not more than 2 pounds per person per month. They are directed to use sugar substitutes as much as they can. Substitutes include corn syrup, honey, maple sugar, maple syrup, sorghum, fruit, juices, etc. 12. What is the sugar ration at present in England, France and Italy? England—2 pounds per person per month. France—1 1-2 pounds per person per month, including all foods and drinks containing sugar. Italy—1 pound per person per month. These rations are not guaranteed. They represent the maximum under present rationing systems, if the sugar can be obtained. 13. Does the 2 pound ration for house holders include sugar for cooking? No; not as a general policy. A limited amount of sugar is allowed for preserving fruits at home. However it is urged that everyone eat less than 2 pounds if possible, so that throughout the country more may be available for canning. 14. How can sugar for home canning be secured? By applying to the Federal Food Administrator of your State, or his deputy in your vicinity. Usually certificates must be signed by persons who wish to secure sugar for canning. These certificates are to be returned to the Federal Food Administrator of the States by the dealers who sell the sugar. Thus a check is kept on canning requisitions. CANNING. 15. Why does the Food Administration at present encourage canning without sugar? Because perishable fruits would be lost if not canned. If fruit is sterilized and air excluded, sugar will not be needed as a preservative and enough sugar can be added when the fruit is eaten to make it palatable. 16. Can jams and jellies be made later when sugar is more plentiful? Yes; from the fruit pulp and juices that have been sterilized and canned or bottled without sugar. 17. How small an amount of sugar can be used in making jams, jellies, and preserves which depend upon sugar as well as sterilization for their cooling qualities? Allow no more than three-fourths a pound of sweetening to each pound of fruit. One-half pound for sweet fruits is enough. 18. Can sugar substitutes be used in canning? Yes. Corn sirups and other table sirups not made from granulated sugar can be used with sugar in some parts of the country suitable varieties of canned sirups and sorghums are available for preserving without adding any sugar. 19. How else may fruits be saved without the use of sugar? Some fruits may be dried; others may be stored in a cool cellar. Fruit pulp may be evaporated to a paste thus concentrating the natural fruit sugar. SUGAR PRICES 20. How do sugar prices here compare with those in other countries? Net wholesale prices of refined sugar per pound in chief cities of Allied countries since sugar control was established in the United States by the Food Administration; Oct. 1, 1917. New York, $0.0818, Montreal, $0.0867, London, $0.0998, Paris, $1.1228, Rome, $0.263. May 1, 1918. New York, .073, Montreal, .0807, London, .1259, Paris, .1228, Rome, .263. 21. What is the average retail price of sugar in the United States. From 8-12 to 10 cents a pound, varying slightly in different localities. During the Civil War sugar sold at retail for 35 cents a pound, when there was no real shortage, Speculation then was rampant; now it has been checked by Food Administration regulation. 22. How have prices been regulated? By voluntary agreement with producers and retailers with regard to the price of the raw sugar and refiners' margins, and by establishing maximum margins for wholesalers and retailers. 23. Would our prices be higher if there were no control of sugar? The price would, in the face of the world shortage have mounted rapidly, as it has in countries where no control exists. As the American people consume upward of $3,000,000,000 pounds annually, can per pound increase would cost the people more than $80,000,000 a year. 24. How can I know whether my grocery is charging excessive prices for sugar? Consult the list of "fair prices" published in the newspapers or write directly to the State Food Administrator or his representative in your vicinity. 25. What penalty is there for the small retail grocery who is found guilty of charging excessive prices? Wholesalers, all of whom operate under Federal licenses issued by the Food Administration, may cut off his supplies. HOARDING 26. What is sugar hoarding? Having on hand more than is needed for a reasonable length of time. You should not fail to return any unused balance of sugar purchased for canning purposes. 27. May a household have a month's supply of sugar on hand? This is not justifiable except in extreme cases where there are no stores available for purchase, and it should be done only upon advice of the Federal - Food Administrator or his deputy. 28. What are some of the evil effects of hoarding? It throws the distribution system out of joint; it raises prices; it imposes a heavier burden upon those already doing their utmost; it results in waste where there are no proper facilities for storage; it discourages the honest. / 29. What is the moral wrong of hoarding? It is selfish, cowardly, unpatriotic. It is, in effects, taking unto one's self special privileges at a time when all Americans should be on the same footing, share and share alike. 30. Is there any punishment for hoarders? Yes. The Food Control Act provides fines of not more than $5,000 and imprisonment for hoarding by dealers, manufacturers or householders. GENERAL SUGAR CONSERVATION 31. Is sugar necessary in the diet? Neither one, nor best sugar is necessary. In the average American diet all the bodily needs may ordinarily be supplied by using honey, sugar, fresh preserved and dried fruits. 32. What are the general sugar saving rules? Use al sugar sparingly and whare. ever possible use substitutes. Be sparing of confections and sweet cakes. The American people last year spent enough money for candy to feed all Belgium for two years. Supplement sugar with honey, maple sirup, and corn sirup. Cultivate a taste for fruit in its natural sweetness. Sugar is a fuel-food. Get fuel from potatoes and other starchy foods rather than sugar. Sugar excels them as an energy-food only because it produces energy more quickly. They excel sugar, since they supply more than merely the fuel need. 33. If a recipe calls for 1 cup of sugar, what amount of substitute may be used? If a recipe calls for 1 cup of sugar, use in its place 1 cup of strained honey or 1 2-3 to 2 cups of corn sirup. If honey or sirup is used, the amount of liquid called for in the recipe must be reduced one-fourth cup for every cup of honey or sirup. 34. How may the sugar ration be expressed in quantities known to everyone? Two pounds per month means about 8 ounces per week, or a little more than 1 ounce a day. This daily ration is a trifle more than 2 tablespoons level full. It should be remembered that this is to include all sugar used for any purpose whatsoever—for table use, cooking, in ice cream and desserts, on cereals or fruit, in sugar sirups used on glove cakes, etc. DISCUSSES DOCTRINE OF LABOR. Frank P. Walsh, of War Labor Board, Says Its Principles Are Proving Successful. "The Presidential Doctrine of Labor" is the subject of an article contributed by Frank P. Walsh, chairman of the National War Labor Board, to the August number of the Forum. "A great deal that is said concerning the mysterious influence of the National War Board of Labor is misleading, although true as to the chief impression that the Board is making a success of its principles," says Mr. Walsh. "There is nothing mysterious about its operations excepting what it has shown in its recommendations, which in themselves reveal the mysterious change of heart that has come over the relations of capital and labor as a result of the awakening impulse of the war. "The presidential doctrine which embodied the individual duty of all men during the war, is well understood. If I say that it is my opinion that labor understood it first, before capital looked into it with full perception of its supreme forces, I mean that labor is no longer in ignorance of war obligations. The War Labor Board has had exceptional advantages of observation. The principles upon which it was directed under the President's preclamation, to govern relations between workers and employers have developed to be sound an adaptable to the many changing conditions of disturbance between them." HOUSING PLANS IN PROGRESS at Bridgeport, Chicago, and Pittsburg to Aid Workers. Three important housing projects now under way as a means of promoting efficiency in war industries by relieving workers of worry and financial stress, are being handled at Chicago, near Pittsburgh, and at Bridgeport, Conn. The Department of Labor has, as a war emergency measure, established a Housing Bureau with headquarters in Washington. The portion of Chicago south of Thirty-first Street, from Halsted Street to the Lake, has been carefully canvassed in order to list every available place for workmen to live. This section has become an important war industrial center. The Government here will endeavor to aid transportation facilities by advancing money to traction companies, rather than build new houses for the munitions workers Near Pittsburgh, however, a site has been chosen for employees of the Naville Island ordinance plant. A large forces of surveyors is at work on the ground in Kennedy Township, bounded on two sides by the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railroad and its Moon Run line. It is expected that several thousand houses for workmen will be put up here. Streets are being laid out and locations for public buildings made. Recently contracts were awarded to house 600 families in Bridgeport; and, in addition to these homes, dormitories for 1,000 workmen will be erected. "SPEED UP" RULES IN SHIPYARD. Publications of Great Industrial Plants Illustrate the Spirit Prevailing Among Workmen. Just a hint of the unprecedented activity of the American shipyards these days is afforded by the names of the papers that are being published in the various plants. These include "Speed Up." New ark Bay, N. J.; "Heave Together." of Portland, Oreg.; "Bare Together." of the same city; "Pore an Air." of New York; "Dry Dock Dial." of Brooklyn; and the "Compass." Chester, Pa. Many such publications come regularly to the Department of Labor. HOSPITAL BUILT IN RECORD TIME Building Completed with Plumbing and Wiring in 10 hours and 28 minutes. Jist ez de bucket in amun haun haun flop over on his face, er Bacronrin'r dance 'roun' en say, seszes: "One good tu 'n desarves en nuther." sezee—Meainin' dat ef de joes boys go en de do fightin'er, de leaes' we alls kin do, is ter sen' em all de wheat—en eat bane flour' Co'n meal, rye en barley flour for us will he'p a lot too. P HUNGER For three years America has fought starvation in Belgium Will you Eat less-wheat meat-fats and sugar that we may still send food in ship loads? A record for hospital building that is likely to last for a long time, was made recently on work for the War Department at Staten Island, N. Y. The building, a one-story frame structure with every modern convenience, was put up in just 10 hours and 23 minutes from the time work started, at 7 o'clock in the morning. The hospital is 150 feet long and 24 feet wide, with a 10-12 foot porch the entire length of the building on one side. When the work began not a post-hole had been dug and not a piece of timber was cut to size. At 7 o'clock 130 laborers began to dig the postholes. Circus day never witnessed such elaborate organization or quicker progress, although circus organization and speed in tent raising is proviral. Before 8 o'clock 434 carpenters plumbers, and electricians were at work, and by noon the roof was on At 3:30 the electricians, plumbers, sheet-metal workers and pipe coverers had finished. An hour later only 85 carpenters were left on the job—finishing up—and at 5:28 the whole task was completed. The building was completely wired, with lights ready to be switched on and water was run running in the pipes. Radiators were in stalled and connected, and fire extinguishers were hanging on the walls. WILL WORK ON LABOR DAY. Alabama Mine Workets. Because of Coal Shortage, will Celebrate Holiday on the Job. Mine workers of Alabama will celebrate Labor Day by working harder than ever in the coal mines in order to prevent, so far as they are able, any shortage of fuel supply this winter. This decision was made by the union men of Birmingham and its suburbs, who will give the money they earn that day to the Red Cross. It was made known through a letter of President William Harrison of the Alabama Federation of Labor, to the American Alliance for Labor and Democracy, and in this way reached the Department of Labor. "The Central Labor Union of Birmingham and other outlying organizations have resolved to work on Labor Day," he wrote, "the proceeds of their labor to be devoted to the Red Cross. 'My own organization, the United Mine Workers of America, in Alabama is advising the miners to work on Labor Day because of the seriousness of the coal situation now confronting the country." MUNITIONS MEN RAN STREET CARS. Solution of Transportation Problem for War Workers Was Simple When Attacked in Right Way. Street-car trouble—congestion and inadequate service—have arisen in many places where war industries have transformed overnight a small city to a busy factory center, perhaps of quadruped population. The Department of Labor and the War Department have been faced with many problems. In one such place the street car company was unable to provide service for the war workers, most of whom were forced to live at long distances from the principal factory, and as a result the men gradually dropped away from the workplace, who became desperate, and with only a small force left on the job decided to attempt a dangerous remedy—lengthening the working day to get more done by the men who were left. This plan led to a crisis, and the Government was obliged to take a hand. The ordinance department sent an official from Washington to investigate and he discovered that the trouble was not lack of cars but lack of men to run them. The remedy he proposed was simple—he advised choosing experienced street-car men from among the factory workers to make trips on the cars morning and night to take the others to and from work. The solution proved thoroughly satisfactory and what might have proved a serious alteration was averted. BIGGEST AIRCRAFT FACTORY HERE. Dayton Establishment Turns Out More Planes Than Greatest Factories of England and France. When the Dayton Wright Aeroplane Co., of Dayton, Ohio, turned out its thousandth aeroplane it developed that the 6,000 men at that plant are turning out more fighting planes than any two factories in England or France. This daily and monthly output puts the nation in the position of two countries, according to unofficial statistics sent to the Department of Labor. Building of I Great Shipyard Ranks Among Chief Feats of American Labor. When the war has ended, and it is possible to judge things more fairly than at present, the tremendous undertaking of the building of the Hog Island shipyard will, perhaps, rank among the greatest fats of labor ever accomplished in this country. A distinguished Englishman has thus commented on the Hog Island establishment: This is the most marvelous engineering feat that I have ever seen, and the organization which is conducting the work is unique.

EXELENTS MEDICINE CO., Atlanta, Ga. the workmen are all entitled to credit for the construction of this "magic" city, with 50 ways for the launching of ships. In spite of difficulties at the start in making satisfactory housing arrangements at a spot so remote from the facilities required for the comfort of workmen, the force remained on the job until the difficulties were surmounted and the yards made ready for the manufacture, not more than a few months later. Department of Labor is informed that the number of accidents is being cut to uncommonly low figures. SHIPIWORKERS WITNESS LAUNCHINGS Sight of Vessels They have Created Sliding Down the Ways Proves Inspiration to New Efforts. No more practical means of inspiring labor to the great task of winning the war has been developed, according to information reaching the Department of Labor, than through the wartime practice of inviting the workmen in a body to witness ship launches. At the big Pore River yards and elsewhere the army are the men who have built the ships an opportunity to see them slip into the water, for the men in witnessing the spectacle not only come to a realization of the great work America is doing, but they take a personal pride in their own labor that they would not fel otherwise. In the past launchings have been generally ceremonies for a comparatively small and select company, for in peace times nothing in particular depended upon the addition of one vessel more or less to the Navy or to the merchant marine. Now, all that has changed; every ship launched today is a body blow at the enemy. The feeling prevails at most shipyards that the workmen partners with the management in the building of every ship—should be honored guests at the launch. LEAVE OFFICES FOR MUNITIONS WORKS: Business Men, After Doing a Day's Work, Put in Four Hours for Uncle Sam. Several hundred Toledo Business men have volunteered to work four-hours shifts in munition plants here, after business hours. Several similar instances have come to the notice of the Department of Labor. They have formed a volunteer munitions workers' association to speed up production during the war and are going to devote their spare time to making shells instead of playing golf. The Toledo plants require 1,500 men to fill their capacity, and until the men are obtained the four-hour job will feature almost every able-bodied Toledo business man's day. quick bread U. R.

The St. Robinson Baptist Church under the successful leadership of our pastor, Rev. W. M. Robinson is doing good work for the Lord and humanity, within the last two months eight members and three candidates for baptism have been received. The Home Mission Society gave the church a communion set and an altar cover. The B. Y. P. U. and Sunday school under the leadership of Bro. Dally Wright and Sister Mamie Conway is making great progress. The pastor and members are very grateful to the doctors and nurses, especially Dr. E. L. Dunnings, F. T. Jones and Miss Halminton of Flint Goodridge Hospital for the tender care and treatment of Sister M. O. Porter while she was in the Hospital. Everyone agrees that the Service Flag Raising at Tulane Ave, Baptist Church, Rev. E. W. White, pastor, on Sunday Sept. 1st was the best and most attended that has been held among the churches of this city. The flag contains 40 stars in memory of the boys of this church who are sacrificing their lives to the country's altar. The services were made very impressive by the bugle calls by Bugler Hildorm. The ladies of the Red Cross department were present in uniform. A representative of the Mayor and other prominent speakers participated on the program. The American Flag was also raised and dedicated. The beautiful American Flag was donated to the church by Mrs. Emma Broadway. The proceeds of the evening were given to the Red Cross. The pastor, his wife and other members are now on their way to Little Rock, Ark. to attend the National Baptist convention, unincorporated NITED STATES RAILROAD ADMIN ISTRATION. W. G.

GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATION OF THE RAILWAYS A Reply to Its Critics The critics of railway operation under Government management have been answered in a statement recently issued by Theodore H. Price, who is now actuary to the United States Railroad Administration at Washington. Mr. Price briefs the givances of the various complaints as follows: 1. The advance in freight and passenger rates. 2. The abolition of the through bill of lading for export freight and the cancellation of export and import rates. 3. The dismissal of solicitors who "took an interest in the handling of the traffic" and the consolidation of freight and ticket offices. 4. The withdrawal of the credit provisionally allowed in the matter of freight charges which must now be the goods unless the consigner gives a bond that will protect the Govermpaid before or upon the delivery of 5.

Mr. Price also quotes the following editorial from a prominent daily newspaper: "We have now some details as to the first five months of Government operation of the railways; and while it is far too soon to pass any judgment, two facts stand out very strongly and are worthy of note. "The first is that in these five months, on the face of the figures, the roads carried slightly less ton-mileage than in 1917. This, in spite of the tremendous pressures of war and of the known increase in many lines of production, is certainly very significant. Extra traffic has been carried in other ways; largely, as we know, by motor trucks." of about 2,400,00 cars, and if the ratio of increase in the train load, equa- t to 2.7 per cent is maintained, it will be the equivalent of adding about 1,750 to the present equipment of some 650,000 locomotives of all sorts. Surely this is betted than buying new cars and locomotives at a time when they can only be had at extravagant prices and the manufacturing energies of the country are overtaxed to provide the things required for the winning of the war. Instead of proving the inefficiency of Government management, these figures furnished the strongest possi- bility proof of its efficiency and wisdom in demonstrating that the old cars and engines are being made to do REV. C. H. CLARK. D. D. Chairman of the National Baptist Publishing Board, attending the National Baptist Convention in Little Rock. "The second fact is that the number of available locomotives and cars remained practically the same as in the first part of 1917. There was no increase. The roads were taken over for their supposed inefficiency. But the Government, with all its money and power, has found it easier to acquire experience than to increase the efficiency of the railroad machine. "After five months of unlimited credit and power there is no increase in cars or locomotives, or rail movement or tonnage hauled. To move their increased traffic the industries of the country have had to resort to the highly expensive carriage by motor trucks over country roads. This may have been unavoidable, and the railway administration, like the fuel bureau, may have done, everything possible. It may prove its wonderful efficiency and high superiority in time. We merely point out there is no evidence yet that the Government is performing no miracles that might not have been expected of the roads themselves, if they had simply had enough money to go ahead in their ordinary way." Mr. Price says that this is a fairly complete summary of the criticism that is being directed at Governmental administration of the railways, and after quoting the statistics upon which it purports to be based he adds that while they show that the number of tons of freight carried one mile during the first five months of the year was 0.6 per cent less than during the same months last year, they also show that the loaded car freight of this freight was 552,968,512 miles or 8.6 per cent less than the distance traveled under private management in the carriage of nearly the same ton mileage of revenue freight during the same period in 1917. Dealing with the reduction in the average daily mileage of locomotives and freight cars, he points out that this is due to the heavier train load and car load, and explains that it is not economically practicable to haul heavy trains as fast as light ones, and that the Railroad Administration has adopted the policy of loading trains to capacity and moving them on schequels that are not too fast to be maintained. This showing he claims, indicates not inefficiency, but a striking increase in the efficiency with wh ch the railroads are being operated, and asserts that it is directly due to the heavier loading of the freight cars and the greater train load now pulled by each engine. He continues as follows: The average carload has been increased from 26.2 to 28.5 tons, or 8.8 per cent. If this ratio is maintained, it will be the equivalent of an addition of 8.8 per cent, or 211,200 freight cars to the present equiment of about 2,400,00 cars, and if the ratio of increase in the train load, equal to 2.7 per cent is maintained, it will be the equivalent of adding about 1.750 to the present equipment of some 65,000 locomotives of all sorts. Surely this is betted than buying new cars and locomotives at a time when they can only be had at extravagant prices and the manufacturing energies of the country are overtaxed to provide the things required for the winning of the war. Instead of proving the inefficiency of Government management, these figures furnished the strongest possible proof of its efficiency and wisdom in demonstrating that the old cars and engines are being made to do more work than they performed under private management. The same progress toward the intensive use of the present equipments is to be found in the report of loaded cars arriving at Philadelphia and Pittsburgh during the first four weeks of July. This report is as follows: Comparative statement loaded care and tonage contents arriving at Philadelphia and Pittsburgh four weeks ending July 27, 1918, and corres- ponding four weeks previous year. Cars Tonnage 1819 100,228 3,023,207 1917 107,158 2,752,765 These figures show an increase of 9 per cent in the tonnage and a decrease of 7 per cent in the cars used. The number of tons per car in July, this year, is 30.2 as against 25.7 tons in the same period last year. The increase of 18 per cent, if it were general throughout the country would be the equivalent of an addition of about 432,000 cars to the freight car equipment of the railroads. Although the Government has recently ordered 100,000 new freight cars and about 4,000 engines have been under order for a long time, to provide for the expected increase in the traffic, they cannot be turned out in the traffic, they cannot be turned out in a day and while waiting for them the present capacity of motive power and rolling stock is being scientifically increased, not only by increasing the car load and train load, but by sending the traffic over the shortest, and least resistant routes without regard to the caprice of the shipper. Moreover, priority has been given to orders for the large number of locomotives required by General Pershing for military operation in France and the locomotive works have been thereby prevented from delivering promptly the engines ordered for the railroads. In several cases the distance that freight in transit between two important cities formerly traveled has REV. R. H. BOYD. D. D. Secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board attending the National Convention this week at Little Rock, Ark. been shortened by from 200 to 500 miles and in one instance recently some 8,999 cars carrying freight between two western cities were within a period of sixty days re-routed so as to effect a saving of 195 miles in the mileage traveled by each car. This was the equivalent of 1,754,644 car miles, which at six cents a car mile means a saving of $105,278. As to the alleged movement of freight by motor truck it can only be said that the Government is moving regular freight and passenger trains promptly, notwithstanding the extra miles this company is fueling troop movement now averaging 1,100,000 men per month, that there i so freight congestion or delay, that the cars supplied to the coal mines are now in excess of the daily loading and that if shipers are sending their doubtful, their action is not the result goods in unusual quantities by motor truck, which is not provable and is of a lack of railway transportation. In fact, the Railroad Administras has of late been urging merchants to take advantage of the present carrying ability of the railways to stock up against their winter's needs when weather conditions make train operations difficult. Of the other items in the indictment of government operation of the railways referred to it Mr. Price remarks: 1. That the advance in the cost of transportation is less than the advance in wages and the price of almost every other commodity that society requires. 2. That through bills of lading for every contract cannot be issued because the Government has preempted the ocean room and that is no assurance that the goods can be forwarded upon arrival at the seaboard. 3. That as competition between the railroads no longer exists there is no occasion for competitive solicitors and ticket offices and that their abandonment will save the railroads about $23,000,000 annually. 4. That the Government is not authorized to extend credit to consignees of the weight they when the goods are delivered, and that it cannot exceed its legal authority. 5. That a new and simplified classification and rate book has been prepared and will be effective and available as soon as the shippers themselves approve it. 6. That a continuance of the package car service would have involved a wasteful use of facilities that are needed for the winning of the war, and 7. That if shippers were allowed to select the routes by which their freight would ve carried, the efficiency and economy that are shown to have been secured by re-routing could not have been obtained. To this categorical refutation of grievances alleged by complainants whose attitude reminds one of the couplet which runs JOHN H. HARRIS REV. HENRY A. BOYD, Assistant Secretary, National Bap tist Publishing Board, Nashville Tenn. "The good old times— "All times are good when old," and suggests that they are to be classed with the chronic reactionaries and opponents of progress. I can only add that two months' close study of what has been and may be done under a unified management toward increasing the servicable efficiency of the American railway convictions me that the wisdom of the President's action in taking over the transportation facilities of the country will be cumulatively demonstrated as the years roll by. METOKA CLASS OF MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURH. Mr. D. R. Washington, formerly teacher of the Metoka class in the Mt. Olive Sunday school lectured to men only Thursday evening, August 28, at 8:30 o'clock, upon the subject, "Know Thyself." A large and representative crowd gathered early in the large and beautiful auditorium of the church so hear him. Being a young man of unusual ability, exceptional character and integrity, Mr. Washington is indeed very highly esteemed by all who know him. Naturally an interesting speaker, he charmed the audience for more than an hour with his rare native eloquence. So pure was his philosophy, and so convincing was the truth of his logic, that not a single dissenting shadow of a doubt was raised in the minds of the people in direct opposition to the many self-evident truth evinced by him, but all were accepted as facts indispensable. It was indeed the greater effort of his life, and was wore than equal to the occasion. His timely remarks bore immediate, and endearing reverence. Several members of this audience responded very warmly. All expressed themselves as being very highly pleased and immensely benefited by his masterly and instructive lecture. Now a very queer thing happened. The meeting, which was intended only as a purely local and instructive one, terminated into a permanent organization, which will be known in the future as "The Men's Live Wire Club." The officers very judiciously chosen and duly elected, are as follows: Bros. J. C. Maddox, Chairman, B. E. Stanley, Secretary, C. V. Kelly. WOMAN'S AUXILIARY TO STONE RIVER ASSOCIATION.

Mrs. Hale attended the National Nurses Association of which she is now a member. In St. Louis she was the guest of Dr. and Mrs. J. T. Breedlove. The Dr. has just purchased a beautiful modern 14 room flat and is highly styled one of the leading physicians of the West. Every form of entertainment was given Mrs. Hale by the St. Louisans and the trip West will ever stand out as one of the most enjoyable of her experience. 1 One of our new internes in person of Dr. Chambers is in the city and will soon be on the scene.

TOMORROW. Today may be dark and forbidding; Our hearts may be full of despair; But Tomorrow the hope that was waning. Faint heart is forerunner of sadness; Despondency robs us of health; The man who is chock full of gladness Is the man who makes most of life's wealth. Today may be all that is mournful Our paths cannot always be bright; Tomorrow the sun will be brighter; Tomorrow the skies will be fair; Tomorrow our hearts will be lighter. We'll cast aside sorrow and care. Remember when heartsick and weary; The sunshine comes after the rain; Tomorrow is time to be cherry— Tomorrow we look up again.—Ex. CITY WILL SAVE COAL The United States Fuel Administration, in pursuance to its program of fuel conservation, has sent representatives to Nashville to study the fuel situation here, and to make reports and recommendations upon their findings. On Thursday Messrs Crowley Wentworth, solicitor for the United States Fuel Administration; Howell Van Blarcom, general assistant of power and light division; J. E. Arthur of the electric power and light division; W. E. Myer, State Fuel Administrator, Dr. C. S. Brown, administrative with the Board of City Commissioners with regard to the possibility of fuel saving by the city of Nashville. All the city commissioners were present. It is the earnest desire of the United States Fuel Administration to avoid, if possible the necessity of closing plants this winter, as was done necessarily last winter. Its representatives are being sent to all parts of the country to make investigations and where it is possible to do so, whether the city lighting plants are operated by the city or by private contractors, they are curtailing and transferring and consolidating the operation of plants for the sole purpose of saving fuel. This is intended only for the period of the war. The Fuel Administration representatives who have investigated conditions at Nashville discover that on account of the war, it has been impossible for the city to keep its plants equipped in an up-to-date manner; that the boilers of the plant are dangerous, and that the machinery is to a degree antiquated. Mr. Van Blaircom makes it clear that no one is to blame for this condition, and that except for the war emergency the plant could have been kept in the best condition. These men have investigated the plant of the Nashville Railway and Light Company, and find it will be amply able to take care of the needs of the city lighting plant at a much smaller cost in production power and at a vast saving of coal. As is well known water power cuts a large figure with the Railway and L t Cohgjmaptmuutl the Railway and Light Company's plant and through the Fuel Administration that company has offered to furnish its current to the city at 10 per cent smaller cost than it is supplying any other customer. Mr. Van Blaircom recommends the acceptance of this proposition by the Board of Commissioners and the board will meet again today to consider the matter, and will doubtles stake the step recommended. Should it fail to do so, it will only require an order from the nited States Fuel Administration to consolidate the plants for fuel conservation purposes, hence it would not be an enviabel position for the commissioners to oppose the proposition. The Fuel Administration emphasizes the importance of steel at this stage of the war. Tons and tons of steel are needed for railroads, ships munitions and every branch of war work. Steel must be produced. Five thousand tons of coal mean one thousand tons of steel produced. These representatives of the Administration in Nashville estimate a saving of 5,000 to 7,000 tons of coal this winter by ```markdown ``` AGENTS-Pressing Combs, Temple Oil, Hair nets, Face Cream, Pure Hair Switches.

Washington, Sept. 4.—Death sentences of ten negro soldiers who participated in the riot at Houston, Tex., to life imprisonment by President Will August 23 1917, have been commuted son. In six other cases the President affirmed the death sentences because the condemned men had been found guilty of having deliberately and with great cruelty murdered civilians. This action, announced today by the War Department, concludes the cases of twenty-nine Negroes given the death penalty for their part in the riot. Thirteen were executed, and the President was called upon to review the findings in sixteen cases. The President found that the ten whose sentences he commuted had not been convicted of personally and directly causing deaths. The soldiers involved were not named in the War Department's statement. "I commute the remaining sentences," the President said in a statement attached to the record, "because I believe the lesson of this lawless riot will have been adequately pointed by the action already taken and that now directed, and also because I sire the clemency here orderedig a recognition of the splendid lex of the race to which these so belong, and an inspiration to the ple o fthat race to further zeal in ```markdown ``` 6 Weeks Treatment $1.60 RHODAO COLLEGE 514-10Ave., S.

"This statement will certify that I have used Lung-Vita with my two children, who had whooping cough, and it has greatly helped them," says Mrs. C. G. Cates, who lives at 202 Grace Street, East Lake, Birmingham, Ala., in her statement given the latter part of June. "Before I began giving them Lung-Vita I was up with them dozens of times each night, but since using Lung-Vita they rarely ever cough at all. I recommend Lung-Vita highly to all mothers." For summer coughs and colds there is nothing so good as Lung-Vita. Usually the first dose or two of this wonder medicine scatters the congestion and others you to throw out the phlegm.

Orange, Texas, Aug. 30, 1918— The many friends of Dr. A. C. Kenon, pastor of First Battist Church at Murfreesboro, Tenn will be glad to know that he has been called to the pastorate of the Mt. Zion (First) Baptist Church at this place. This is a large church of a membership of about 500. The church has a large parsonage built on the modern style. The church pays a salary of $70.00 per month and it is thought that Dr. Kenon will be paid well for his sev- ron. The church considers Dr. Kenon a preacher of Class A-one, and thinks the can't do too much in appreciation of Dr. Kenon has been for more than five years a suc- cessful pastor at Murfreesboro, Tenn. His church there will give him up. During the three years, Kenon pastored at Murfreesboro, he didn't even seem to have as much as a single misunderstanding with the deacon board of the church. He will, we think accept his new call. We wish him much success in his new field of labor. Dr. Kenon is also furnishing an equipped office to practice medicine and surgery in Orange, Texas.

The pastor, Rev. C. H. Boone officiated, assisted by Rev. Beecher Frierson and Rev. Cooper of the Presbyterian church.

The fourth and last quarterly conference this conference year was held at St. Paul August 18th and 19th was a success in every way. Rev. Edwards, P. E., is loud in his praise of the work of St. Paul under the leadership of Rev C. Boone. St. Paul is in a fine financial condition and the pastor is all smiles as he is sure of success in the business of the church for General Conference. Mrs. Mary Filipp has returned from Lebanon where she was the guest of her brother, Rev Riley. The people of Columbia and Maury County, both white and colored did themselves honor in their co-operation with the Woman's War Council in giving the 104 drafted men a roaring send off on last Sunday, Sept. 1st. The boys were presented each with a comfort kit by the Volunteer Knitting Club at their assemble before the board in the morning at 10 o'clock. Long before the appointed hour for the demonstration in the afternoon the streets were thronged with a seething mass of humanity. Not since Ringing bros. Shows were here, have the streets of Columbia been graced with such a crowd. The speaker of the noun, Prot. Isaac Fisher of Fisk University was more than equal to the occasion and it was the cry on every hand, "He must come again." Too much praise cannot be given Messrs. Robert King and Si Dunnington for their patriotism in securing the hand iron Spring Hill. The entire finance for waken was furnished by our loyal white friends. The long parade to the station was one of the most impressive in the history of the town.

BRYANT GROVE The members and friends of the Bryants Grove Baptist Church are rejoicing over the great success of the revival which resulted in seven happy converts, who went down and put on Christ by baptism in Stone River. The church is doing nicely under its newly elected pastor, Rev. J. E. Elder of Smyrna. We believe he is a God sent preacher and the right man in the right place. Father Strong and our preacher, Bro. Willie Bryant was also with Rev. in the revival. The Sunday school was largely attended Sunday, both old and young joined in the lesson, which was taught by Prof. T. I. Bryant, who is leaving no stone unturned that will lift the school to higher standard. The Sunday school was beautifully addressed by Mr. Wm. I Bryant of Cincinnati, O., on the subject, Prepare to do something in life," Mr. Bryant has been here for ten days visiting relatives and friends, also on business. He expressed himself as having an enjoyable visit, he leaves Monday night for Cincinnati. SHELBYVILLE We failed to mention the death of Mrs. Lizzie Little last week. She was the mother of Mrs. Caroline Miller and sister of Mrs. Tennie Seals. She was a good woman and reared a large family. Rev. Felix Allen was buried last week. The funeral was at the M. E. Church, conducted by Rev. A Ransom. He was buried with Prien honors. A very useful pen has gone away. On Monday afternoon farewell exercises were held at the First Baptist Church in honor of the thirteen young men who left for Camp Sherman. The house was full to overflowing. The address was delivered by Pres. B. F. Allen of Turner. It is safe to say that the address was by far the most scholarly that has been given on these occasions. It was replete with wisdom and advice to those going away and those remaining at home. A better selection could not have been made. Pres. Allen is the woman who very favor. He is unassuming and bespeaks the scholar and gentleman. In his every movement, Mr. L. Trail, Sr. announced his appointment of food commissioner and asked co-operation. Remarks were made by Rev. J. H. Hillzuan. Pres. Allen was fittingly introduced by Rev. F. W. Gardner. Dr. J. E. Bias presided. Mrs. Oscar Burkeen of Chattanooga is visiting Mrs. Ada Jennings.

Miss Beatrice Brown is teaching for Mrs. Fillon Whiteside during the illness of Miss Gladys. Turner has received $400 from the estate of the late Bishop H. M. Turner. Mrs. Emma Thompson presented the public school with several valuable books. We are reliably informed that a prominent colored lady has willed her library to the public school. This is a significant fact. We are also reliably informed that a prominent white citizen who died recently directed that his library be given to the public school. Prof. McAdams has prepared a new lecture, "Life, liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." It will be delivered at Turner and is booked for four other nearby towns. A second lecture is being prepared "Keep the Fire Burning." Mr. Thomas Clairborne owns one of the most handsome span of horses to be seen anywhere. Thomas is a hustler. Mr. and Mrs. M. L.

The oldest, heaviest and most intelligent herd of elephants in the world are coming to Nashville, Monday, Sept. 9, as the special feature of the big menagerie with the John Robinson Circus. These elephants have been in America since before the Civil War and have been seen by more millions of persons than any other herd of pachyderms ever brought together. They are of the massive Burmiah family of elephants, and these, showmen say, are the most intelligent of all their kind. The elephants, besides being a feature in the street parade, are also one of the biggest acts with the circus. For half a century they have been trained until some of the things they do are amazing and almost human. Be it said to their credit, they are good elephants, None has ever seriously hurt any one, and they are as affectionate their trainer as any other pet may be. They do a maze of work around the show and are justly entitled to the cognomen "The grand old men of the Circus." This herd of elephants is only one of many features in the John Robinson Menagerie, which is said to be the most complete with any circus in the world. On show day tickets will be on sale at De Movilles drug Store, 4th and Church, at the same prices charged on the show grounds. THE SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY COMMISSION'S REPORT. The Southern University Commission for the scientific of race questions, created six years ago by the action of eleven southern state universities, has just published its first report. Meeting twice a year to plan and discuss is investigations, the Commission has spoken little and studied much. Its only public utterances have been three open letters to the college men of the South, all of which have been widely approved by the southern press. These letters are embodied in the present report. ON LYNCH LAW. The first is not only a strong protest against mob violence, but is an urgent appeal to college men to lead a crusade "for law and civilization." A WORD ON EDUCATION The second urges college men to work for better schools for white and black as a present necessity for the welfare of the entire South; but it pleads especially for "a larger share (of school funds) for the Negro on the ground of the common welfare on common justice" and link in our civilization, and our welfare is indissolubly bound up with his." THE NEGRO MIGRATION The latest letter, considering the causes o the migration, admits the South's inability "to compete on a financial basis" with other sections," but contends that "the South can easily keep her Negroes against all allurements if she will give them a larger measure of those things which human beings hold dear than material goods" "fair dealing, sympathy, patience, generosity, kind both spiritually and materially," Surely the South has nothing to lose and much to gain by adopting (such) an attitude." A FORMAL REPORT. The present report makes public the scope of the Commission's study, and the minutes of regular meetings, with their record of discussions of race problems with leading men of both races who have been invited to the various sessions. There are also valuable committee reports of investigations made. Gov. Brough of Arkansas, who was the Commission's chairman while a professor at the State university, outlines the plan of work in an able paper present at one of the earlier meetings. Dr. Scroggs, of Louisiana, has a careful historical study of the Negro's civic status, with present-day applications. Dr. DeLoach, who was, a member of the faculty of the university of Georgia, chairman of the Commission's Committee on Economies, has a convincing report of the economic results of the university's fine agricultural extension work among Negro farmers, a report of interest to all who have the welfare of the South at heart. PERSONNEL OF THE COMMISSION Dr. Doster, of the University of Alabama, is the present chairman of the Commission. The other universities represented are those of Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, North and South Carolina, Tennessee and Mississippi. Dr. Dillard, of the Jeans and Slater Boards, Dr. Alderman and Dr. Barrow, presidents of the Universities of Virginia and eGorgia, and Dr. Mitchell, former president of the University of South Carolina, act as an advisory board to the Commission. Copies of the report ma ybe had on application to Dr. W. H. Hunley, Lexington, Va. Foch has ten weeks or more of good fighting weather to round out his work for the year. According to dispatches from Amsterdam a woman has been elected to the Dutch Parliament. The successful candidate is Miss Grovenweg, who was on the Socialist Labor ticket. Under the revised constitution of Holland women are eligible to seats in Parliament and Miss Grovenweg was one of 20 women who contested for election. WHAT DID SHE DO? NOAH'S HAIR DRESSING Price 20c.

Women prominent in trade-union circles are taking an active part in the promotion of the Government's war program. They are making every effort to throw the weight of their organizations most effectively into war work. Many women are assisting the Department of Labor in salaried positions or as volunteers. "We are encouraging trade-union women to develop their abilities to speed up war production" says Miss Melinda Scott, a member of the American Federation of Labor mission to England and France. If women are not getting proper recognition of their efforts toward winning the war, it is not because they are not doing their share. "There is a distinct place for women trade-union leaders, for they can approach their own sex and understand the problems confronting women in industry. Moreover, their appeal to women may have more weight than would the same appeal from a man." Miss Scott is a member of the advisory committee for the Council of National Defense, and State chairman of the New Jersey committee on women in industry. She believes that war production can best be speeded up by throwing the proper safeguards about women workers, and is strongly in favor of an eight-hour day for women. In order not to overaxx their strength. Miss Agnes Nestor, who also went abroad with the A.F. of L. mission holds similar views. "In my talks to members, I insist that uninterrupted production is a prime war necessity," says Mrs. Sara A. Conboy, general secretary-treasurer of the United Textile Workers of America. She holds many important positions in organization connected with war work. "We are trying also to get union members educated to realize the value of money as a supreme factor in winning the war," she continued. "At a recent meeting of textile workers in Knoxville, Tenn., I induced each of the 1,600 present to buy a $100 Liberty trade-union women are taking an active part in the movement to show labor its stake in the wa, among them Miss Mary Daly, Miss Ann Hogan, Mrs. Clarence Blackstone, Miss Mary E. Dreier, and Miss Mamie Murphy, Mrs. Gertrude Breslau Fuller, of Pennsylvania, has been especially interested in war work New Jersey War Organization Ex- plaining to Women what They Can Do to Help the War "Patriotism is only 1 per cent cheering and waving flags; patriotism is 99 per cent hard work." This is the announcement with which the New Jersey division of the women's committee of the Council of National Defense introduced its circular, "Are you a Woman Shaker?" The war services outlined for women include Red Cross work; food conservation and production; patriotic education and Americanization of allen; protection, both physical and moral, of the thousands of women who must be pushed into new industries to the departure of the men for the war; conservation, that the children shall not suffer by the upheavals of war; efficiency in home service; the giving of money, of strength and of devotion in ungugrig spirit. This program will supplement work being done by the Department of Labor. "The attitude of the women with soldier spirit is, 'Stand at attention, receive government, and obey.'" declares the circular, "Remember the war does not take any vacation." NEW YORK ESTABLISHES NEW BUREAU. Forms Women in Industry Service To Co-operate with That of Department of Labor. New York State has followed the lead of the Department of Labor, which recently established a Women in Industry Service, directed by women. In New York a similar division has been formed as a part of the State industrial commission, with Miss Nellie Swartz as its chief. The National Woman's Trade Union League was largely instrumental in forming the service established by the Federal Government, and the Women's Trade Union League of New York and the Consumers' League were active along the same lines in New York. Miss Swartz is a native of Ashland, Ohio, a graduate of Wells College, Aurora, N. Y., and for five years was secretary of the Consumers' League of New York. It is her aim to assist the organization formed by the Department of Labor to as great an extent as possible. "It is a most significant step forward for the million working women of Now York State," comments Mrs. Raymond Robin, president of the National Women's Trade Union League. "This action is equally significant from the national point of women in industry service in the Devie. With the establishing of the partment of Labor at Washington and New York's State leadership in establishing the women's bureau, it becomes inevitable that every State will fall in line and give equal protection to its women workers. "The industrial commission was far sighted, not only seeing the need of such a bureau, but also recognizing that the achievement of such a bureau was dependent on the choice of a woman as chief—a woman of expert knowledge and wide experience." TAKES LABOR'S MESSAGE HOME. Englishwoman, After Long Speaking Tour Here, Returns to Tell of America's War Spirit. After a long speaking tour in which she has delivered 232 lectures in 223 days on the work of English women in the war, Miss Helen Fraser has returned to her native land to tell her English sisters what American women are doing for the cause of the allies. She has been much interested in the war program of the Department of Labor. "A great change has come over the people of the United States, and over the American women in the six months or so that I have been here," she said Tired of Saving Wheat? You don't know what it is to be Tired! before sailing for home. She told of the great interest and enthusiasm women have manifested in the Liberty loan and Red Cross campaigns, and how through care in food conservation they have left available food for Belgium and France. She declared that few persons outside the munitions factories had any idea of the great number of Aderican women who have taken up that work. Many of them are women who had never worked before, but they are devoting their entire energies to this service, she said. The tendencies of the times, she declared, are bringing women into the full responsibilities of citizenship. WOMEN POLICE IN MUNITIONS SHOPS. England Found Establishment of Such Organizations Necessary to Protect Women Workers. A distinctive war-time development in English industry has been the establishment of women police forces in factories where women are employed. They have multifarious duties, and perform the very effectively, according to reliable information to the Department of Labor. The women police began their career in the summer of 1916, when it became evident that further measures check the workers as they enter the women in munitions work than had been adopted up to that time. The women police examine passports were needed for the supervision of factories, such as such contraband articles as matches, cigarettes, and alcohol, patrol the factory neighborhood, and assist the police court magistrates. The patrol is a highly important feature of their service, for many of these plants are located in lonely spots, and practically all of them are going full blast night and day. Even within the factory enclosure, the policewomen are needed, for these are in some instances 6 miles long, and women making explosives must often work in isolated huts at long distances from other structures. So valuable has the work of the policewomen proved that their retention in industry after the war, so long as conditions necessitate the employment of women under present conditions or conditions approximately similar is fully expected. GIRLS WORKING ON AIRPLANES Do Large Part of the Work on Machines for Army in Big Western Factory. In one airplane factory in the West a large part of the work is done by girls. They pack the parts of the machine stuff bags with excelsor to protect delicate mechanism from injury, work on the wiring collar joints of wire, and cut copper pieces. They also sew the linen wings on the planes and do practically all the work of preparing the wings for flight. Indiana Appointment Proves Satisfactory to Employers and Employees Allike. Indiana has a woman factory inspector, who won the friendship of employees and employees when she was a club member interested in welfare work. Mrs. Arthur T. Cox, of East Chicago, was a representative of the State Federation of Women's Clubs when she became interested in one of the most congested factory disasters with the workers extended so empolli that she soon gained a wide knowledge of conditions affecting women. When the war added thousands to the army of industry, Gov. Goodrich found Mrs. Cox equipped for the task of safeguarding the interests of employees. flap jacks en'lasses U. S. Food Administration.

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 6. 19. 8. HEADS WOMEN'S DIVISION. Mrs. Margarretta Neale Chosen to Succeed Mrs. Richards. Mrs. Margaretta Neale, of New York, has been appointed chief of the Women's Division of the United States Employment Service in the Department of Lamar to succeed Mrs. Hilla Mulhiauer Richards, who designed recently. Mrs. Neale has been serving as superintendent of female employment in the New York City offices of the Employment Service. In her new work she will cooperate with Miss Mary Van Kleck, Director of the newly organized Women in Industry Service of the Department of Labor. The province of the latter service will be to determine fit occupations for women in war time; Mrs. Neale's duty will be to see that supply of labor is available for such work Social Service Director for Northwest Department Planning Aid to Women in Industry. Red Cross organizations of the Pacific northwest are making plans to assist women who enter war industries in every way possible. Mrs. Anna Y. Reed, social service director for the Northwest division of the Red Cross, will make a careful study of the effect of the entrance of women into industrial work. The results of her investigations will be made public as soon as she has had an opportunity to compile them, it is expected. BRITISH WAR PUBLICITY PAYS C. F. Higham. Widely Known in America, Tells How Government Departments Advertise How the British Government has been helping instead of hampering newspaper advertisement is explained by the honorary publicity agent of various British departments in a letter to James Keeley, obtained in response to an inquiry made by Roger W. Babson, director of the information and education service of the Department of Labor. The letter follows: "Dear Mr. Keebey: In reply to the query from the Chief of the Division of Information and Education, Mr. Roger W. Babsen, in regard to the attitude of the British Government to ward the British press, I would like to say that the British Government not only relies upon, but encourages in every way the newspapers of this country. They have placed no restrictions on the press in regard to the sort of advertising they should carry or how much of it they should carry, neither have they interrupted in canyons or in the sideside of the newspapers other than arrange for them to only use a proportion of the paper or pulp which they used in previous years, owing to the lack of supplies coming into the country. Even there the object was to see that as far as possible all news papers maintained their prestige. "The only other restriction I know of that has been placed on the newspapers is the press bureau which regulates the distribution of news. The British Government believes that the press of this country's most essential for the proper carrying on of the war, is the press of the Government advertisements that have appeared in the press on behalf of the Government departments of this country are paid for at scale rates, or more, as in the case of war bonds and war-savings certificates. Where in a great many of the newspapers there are 'two rates, one for trade, and one for financial, the Government pays a rate half way between these two rates. There has never been any question of the Government asking for free advertising in this country, neither have they exerted any control over the newspapers to give up the bulk of its real space in support of the war and then give up its revenue columns at the same time. "Th's paid advertising has been extraordinarily successful. The cost of the treasury's advertising in the raising of war loans works out at roughly one-thirty-eighth of 1 per cent, which I think you will agree is extremely economical. "The advertising of nonessential commodities has decreased, not because of any interference on the part of the Government, but owing to the fact that the newspapers use their good judgement there and only find room for the necessities and give second place to the nonessentials. All trade-marked goods are advertised regularly as before, though they can be of much larger size as previously, but their marketing in the more modified form is there just the same. I think this answers Mr. Babson's queries. If it does not, I should be pleased to give you any further information on you may require. "In writing to Mr. Babson you might wish to have some authority for the statements which I make. You might tell him that the man who gave you the information is the honorary publicity agent to the treasury, the national war savings committee, the Admiralty, and other Government departments." The letter is signed by F. C. Higham, who is widely known in this country and formerly held important business positions here. REEMPLOYMENT OF TEXTILE WORKERS. German Government Completes Investigation on Occupations For Wounded Soldiers. Germany has just completed a thorough investigation on the employment of wounded soldiers in the textile industries, the results of which may prove of great value to American manufacturers as well as to the War and Labor Departments. Robert Albert, of Augustusburg, Alsace, describes the investigation in a survey received by the Red Cross institute for Crippled and Disabled Soldiers in New York. Fight German textile associations were engaged in the investigation. The conclusion reached provides for the utilization of many crippled soldiers, but it is strongly urged that men who have lost their hearing should not be employed at tertile machinery. Men who have lost an eye can work only two looms instead of three, which men with two normal eyes are able to handle. The industry will be able to place such men, however. If the wrist is intact there are many types of work the crippled soldier can do. The same applies to men who have lost a leg below the knee. The loss of an arm or hand will not prevent men from operating carrying devices that support goods passing over machine tables. It was found that 515 German soldiers formerly employed in the textile industry were largely reemplaced, though 176 had gone back on their old jobs. The other textile occupations. Of the rest, 241 had become watchmen, porters, cloakers, messengers, servants, shopkeepers, peddlers, house agents, helpers, day laborers, or independent business men. Only 65 were without jobs of some kind. r. Albert believes that with the coming of peace the number of men who will be reemployed on their old trades will increase greatly, because business men have pledged themselves to take their workmen back. CANADA MAKES RECONSTRUCTION PLANS. Col. Dennis Thinks Situation in Dominion Like That in North After Civil War. Canada is already beginning plans for the reorganization of industry after the war, according to Col. J. S. Dennis, second in command of British and Canadian recruiting in the United States. He compares conditions in Canada now with those that existed in the United States during the Civil War, and holds the view that the farm-liar problem will be the most serious matter to contend with after hostilities are ceased. He expects a considerable number of finance grants to seek farms in Canada, but that a comparatively small number of them may be available for farms among the returned soldiers, because most of the soldiers were laborers from the industrial centers. Only 12 per cent of the soldiers enlisted from the farms. There are 200,000 munition workers in Canada, for whom provision will have to be made in the after-war plans. Farm labor, the great need by Canada, must be obtained, he declares for now Canada's population is half urban and the Dominion consumes more than it produces. CANADA DRAWS WAR PROGRAM No Strikes nor Lockouts. Right of Men and Employers to Organize Are Features. The Canadian Government's war policy, a series of a admonitory but not mandatory regulations, provides that there shall be no strikes or lockouts during the war, and concedes the right of workmen to form unions and of employers to form associations. These regulations conform to those of the Taft-Walsh board, a part of the Department of Labor. Where union shops now exists they are to continue; where open shops exists, organized workmen are not to consider the employment of nonunion labor a grievance. Women should receive the same pay as men for the same work. Minimum wage scales should be arranged, it is suggested. Maximum production is the chief aim, any methods that prevent this should be discouraged. Agreements regarding wages should be subject to change only with changes in the cost of living. Where agreements can be reached between workmen and employers, conciliation under the industrial disputes investigation act should be adopted.

The bill is expected to bring about many changes in the educational system of England since it provides for nursery schools for children under 5 years of age and compels attendance at school of all between 5 and 14. It also forbids the employment for profit of any child under 12. AUSTRIANS DRAFT SERBIAN LA BOR. All Men Between Ages of 18 and 55 Summoned for Harvesting for Teutonic Armies. A notice calling up all the Serbian male population between the ages of 17 and 55 has been published in the newspapers of the country, according to a Serbian source of information communicated to the Department of Labor. This is interpreted to mean the collective forced recruiting for the purpose of harvesting for the Austro-Hungarian military stores. Announcement was made July 28 that all persons of both sexes between the ages of 11 and 60 would be considered liable to be called to work. COST TO THE CONSUMER OF A POUND LOAF OF BREAD. (Explanation of Chart.) Since 1913 farmers have been receiving for their wheat a gradually increasing proportion of the price paid by the consumer for bread. The amount received by the wheat grower for his contribution to the average pound has increased from less than $1\frac{1}{2}$ cents per loaf in 1913 to more than $3\frac{1}{2}$ cents early this year. The proportion to the milk price is shown by the relative length of the black columns of the chart. The middle portion of each column shows what the miller received for his millin costs and profits. This has been a somewhat variable factor, but is now at the minimum (6 per cent) this 6 per cent however, is included the cost of the containers (bags, sacks etc.) shown as dotted area which has increased very nearly in proportion to the price of bread itself. Bags now cost about 50 per cent more than in 1913 and 1914. The shaded portion of the column represents the expense of distributing the flour, making it into bread and getting the loaf to the consumer. The chart shows that the farmer is now receiving a much larger share of the final price for his product than in the past, and that a considerable amount of "spread" has been taken out of other expenses. WAR CONTRIBUTION. Colored People of Evansville, Ind. Reported to the National Negro Business League during their annual session in Atlantic City N. J. By Prof. W. E. Best. The war activities of the colored people of Evansville, have been for the most part under the management of the Local Negro Business League of which Logan H. Stewart is president. In 1815, the Negro Business League promoted Health and Cream-Turp Campaign. There were 200 turgp plants due a number of this effort. In 1816, the number of war tarwars was increased to 500, and at present the gardens total more than 1,000. The total assessed value of Vanderburgh Burge. is $6,000,000, the population $0,000. The colored people's holdings are valued at 500,000 dollars, the colored population about 10,000. There has been raised through two various Liberty Loan efforts about $9,000,000 of which $70,000 was the allotment for the colored people. The raising of the various war loans has been under the direction of the Mayor of Evansville. The Mayor in an address before the Evansville Chamber of Commerce stated that the Negroes of Evansville had done their part toward raising the various war loans. The quota for the colored people in the first Red Cross drive was $450. They raised $800. In the Patriotic Fund effort the colored people Evansville contributed $8000, which was more than $5,000 above their quota. Evansville has furnished about 500 colored draftee san denilsted men to the nitted States Army and Navy. Five of these men are commissioned officers and two are in the Y. M. C. A branch of the United States Service. Four out of the seven officers and secretaries are now in service in France. The colored women of Evansville, through the City Federation of Colored Women's Clubs aside from participating in all the various war fund drives conducted in the city have cooperated with the County Council of Defense and have registered the colored women a smembers of the United States Food administration and for many years have conducted the work which fare work in the county weighed the Babies in each of the school districts; they have now in operation fifteen food clubs that are active in the conservation of food. WHAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION MEANS When you subscribe to a Liberty Loan you subscribe to the sentiments that the world must be made safe for democracy and subscribe to the fnd that is to make the world safe for democracy. Describe to the belief that innocent women and children on unarmed ships shall not be sent to the bottom of the sea; that women and children and old men shall not be ravished and tortured and murdered under the plea of military necessity; that nurses shall not be shot for deeds of mercy nor hospital ships be bunk without warning or hospitals and unfortified cities be bombed or cannonaded with long-range guns. You subscribe to the doctrine that small nations have the same right as great and powerful ones; that might is not right and that Germany shall not force upon the world the dominion of her military masters. You subscribe, when you subscribe to a Liberty Loan, to the belief that America entered this war for a just and noble cause; that our soldiers in France and our sailors on the sea are fighting for right and justice. And you subscribe to the American sentiment that they must and shall be powerful, efficient and victorious. BAD NNWS FOR BERLIN. The war news from the eastern front these days is bad news for the German people. Quotations from German newspapers portray the gloom that overhangs the people in the large cities. That the people in the small towns and country are equally depressed is not to be doubted. The Liberty Loan bond buyers of the preceding loans have their share in the success of the entent allies. They furnished the sinews of war not only to fight the U-boats and to build ships, not only to raise, equip and send our soldiers over, not only to supply them and our allies with food and munitions but more than $6,000,000,000 of their money has been loaned to our allies so that they may prosecute the war with vigor and strength. We here at home have an opportunity to send the Germans some more bad news. The Germans have great respect for money; they know its vital value in waging war. They know, too, that the support the American people give a Government loan measures largely the support they give their Government, the moral as well as the financial support they give their armies in the field. A tremendous subscription to the Fourth Liberty Loan will be as distressing to the German people as a defeat for them on the battle field, and it will mean as much. It spells their defeat; it breaks their morals; it means power to their enemies. A subscription to the loan is a contribution to German defeat and American victory. SOME OF THE BITS YOUR LIBERY TY BOND WIL LDO If you buy a $100 bond of the Fourth Liberty Loan you are lending the United States Government enough money to feed a soldier in France a little more than seven months. Or you have furnished enough money to give him a complete outfit of winter and summer clothing, including shoes and stockings, and slicker and overcoat and blankets, with enough left over to arm him with a good revolver. You have done that much to beat back the Hun. It takes $35 more to arm him with a rifle with a bayonet on it, and if you buy a second 100 bond you furnish him this rifle and 1,000 cartridges for it; an dhere will still be enough of your money left to purchase a good sized bomb to throw in a dugout, or demolish a machine gun together with the Huns operating it. CURTAILMENT OF LOANS BY BANKS. Credit extended by banks to their customers for nonessential purposes hurts in several ways. First, it involves the use of money that might be better invested in Government securities, thereby helping to win the war and shorten the war with the consequent saving of American lives. See end, it involves the use of labor, material, and transportation, which ought to be left free to meet, to the fullest the needs of the Government. Third, it involves unnecessary competition with the Government, both delaying Government operations and making them more expensive. Every resource of the United States and its people should be devoted to the winning of this war. We should hit th'elfun with all our strength. To win the war w ehave got to keep our soldiers in a high state of efficiency and keep our people at home, and our farms and mines and factories in a high state of efficiency. We are not keeping ourselves in the highest state of efficiency when we are using money and goods and labor and transportation for nonessential goods, for luxury and lavagery. It should not be soft entirely to the banks to carry out this policy. The people should co-operate with them, and curtail their expenses, their expenditures, and their borrowings. CONSERVATION OF CREDIT Not only should the goods and labor of the eNation be conserved for the prosecution of the war; the credit of the Nation must be conserved for the same purpose. This is being impressed upon the banks, and it should be impressed upon the people, too—the borrowers from banks. All of the banks of the country are being urged by the Federal Reserve Board to curtail their loans. They are urged to loan money only where the borrower is going to use it in some way that will aid in or contribute to winning the war. This policy is not aimed at hampering legitimate business. It aims to help win the war, which it she best thing possible for business. It simply means that money wanted for nonessential purposes should be refused. Let the nonessentials wait until the war is finished. The Government adds the money to carry on the war. The farmer, the men and the industries engaged in war work or engaged in producing things needed for the efficiency both of our soldiers and of our home people, need the credit to carry on their enterprises. Charges should be paid to money to procure warships or things that the people should not buy at this time. No one should borrow money now to spend needlessly or extravagantly. Unnecessary building, unneeded articles, unessential enterprises should ill await the ending of the war. Th Federal Reserve Board points out that in the interest of successful Government financing it would be much better for the banks to hold credit within reasonable bounds by intelligent co-operation *father* than to discourage borrowing by charging high interest rates and to operate with the Government and the banks in the policy of conserving credit and curtailing borrowing ex- TO GROW LONG, STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food. There are so many scaled 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. Seebys Quinade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist who makes the hair and softens it and easy to put up on 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 Quinasapo. Quinasapo is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleaner. Quinasapo lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fuzzy and imparts 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 Quinasapo, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugist or dealer does not stock these two articles, ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and We will mail them to you.

WAR PROFITS TAX AND EXCESS PROFITS TAX—THE DIFFER- ENCE. "By a war-profits tax we mean a tax upon profits in excess of those realized before the war. "By an excess-profits tax we mean a tax upon profits in excess of a given return upon capital. "The theory of a war-profits tax is to tax profits due to the war. "The theory of an excess-profits tax is to tax profits over and above a given return on capital. The excess profits tax falls less heavily on big business than on small business, because big business is generally overcapitalized and small businesses are often undercapitalized. The excess-profits tax would tax all war profits at one high rate; the excess-profits tax does and for safety must tax all excess profits at lower and graduated rates." The above extract from Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo's testimony before the House Ways and Means Committee gives his differentiation between war-profits and excess-profits taxes and explains his position in urging upon Congress on excess-profits tax with an alternative war-profits tax in the forthcoming revenue legislation. To the average citizen "Secretary McAdoo's position seems well taken. Most small and local corporations are capitalized at an actual valuation. Many of the very large corporations are greatly overcapitalized; the stock of some of them has been repeatedly watered. With only an excess-profits tax a corporation earning 10 per cent on grossly watered capital will pay the same tax as another corporation not overcapitalized earning 10 per cent on the real, actual valuation of the money and property invested in its business. The profits of the first corporation might be 30 per cent on its actual valuation, and it is to cover such cases that a war-profits tax is urged. As many of these large corporations are engaged in Government work and drawing huge sums from the United States, it seems particularly just that they should pay taxes on the same actual basis as corporations not over capitalized. A tax that taxes equally on the actual capital and a 10 per cent profit on unwatered capital is not equal and uniform and scarcely just.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY NATIONAL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION The following resolutions were adopted yesterday by the National Medical Association in session at the Virginia Union University: We, the members of the National Medical Association, in annual convention assembled, with delegates from every state in the Union, represent the medical mon, feel that we owe it as a duty to ourselves our race and our nation; to make the following declarations: 1. As loyal and patriotic medical men, we have offered and are offering our services to the nation now in the throes of a great national crisis. About 100 Negro physicians have already been called upon to render professional services in the medical reserve corps. In addition to this, about 200 physicians have been commissioned in the medical reserve corps, but have not been assigned to active duty, notwithstanding the fact that the government is calling for more physicians. We have information that no more Negro physicians will be commissioned in the Medical Reserve Corps, in accordance with the recent policy of the War Department. We appreciate the representation of the discrimination against our physicians whereby they are excluded from further commissions. Thousands of Negroes are being drafted into the army, and we appeal to the War Department to right the injustice of the present policy, and to give us a fair representation of commissioned officers. 2. Negro physicians who are now being drafted, are being assigned as privates with no apparent chance of being transferred to the medical reserve corps, where they could re-enter the professional service for which they have been trained. Under the new draft age—18 to 45—at least 90 per cent of our physicians are subject to the draft, and may be assigned as privates. We have also a War Department to remedy this condition of affairs so that our physicians can be transferred to the medical reserve corps. 3. We heartily approve the decision of the War Department to enlist Negro trained nurses in the Red Cross service. However, this privilege is limited to service in the base hospitals at home. The Negro trained nurse is loyal and true, and we appeal to the War Department to reward her loyalty and devotion by giving her the opportunity to serve the brave black soldiers on the battle fields of Europe. 4. As close students of the war situation, we realize that adequate provision has not been made for the training of a sufficient number of gro officers to man the large number of drafted Negroes. In fact, the eight Negro regiments now being formed are manned by white officers. We give due praise for the recognition we have already received in the matter of officers in the army. At the same time, we feel that it is only fair and just to us as a race, that if we are to be drafted as Negroes and kept in separate regiments as Negroes—that we should have our proportionate share of Negro officers assigned to such regiments. We feel that at this critical hour loyalty should dominate race prejudice, and that the brave black soldier and the soldier with the padded in the back with the fangs of race prejudice while he is facing the brutal Hun in the defense of this country. We appeal to the War Department to give us a fair proportion of Negro officers for our Negro regiments, to the end that loyalty and faithful service may be the test, and not the color of our skin. 5. The Negro physicians constitute one of the most loyal groups of Americans and one of the most potent factors in our racial development. We are using this great influence to promote the patriotism for, and con- THE NATIONAL CONVENTION ```markdown ``` dence in, our government. However as we travel from place to place in our professional duties and to propagate, patriotism, we are inconvenienced, humiliated and abused by the passenger car system known as the Jim Crow cars. It is out of keeping with the tenets of American governments for which the world is now bathed in blood that the government itself should operate such a passenger traffic system. It not only debases a patriotic class of citizens, but breeds discontent and deprives a citizen of a fair compensation for his money. We ride a railroad ticket. We therefore appeal to the director-general of the railroads to abolish theure, to the end that 12,000,000 faithful citizens may be rewarded for their devotion. 6. We give unstinted praise to our Jim Crow car system, as a war measuregreat President, Woodrow Wilson, for the great service he has rendered our race, the nation and mankind, by his official denunciation of mobs and lynchings. We rejoice that public sentiment is relieved for the majesty of the law will lynching, and we pray for the day rejuncealism. 7. We reaffirm our consecration and devotion to the American government and our high resolve to do all in our power to help achieve victory in the war with Germany. But in fighting "to make the world safe for democracy," we want to make America safe for ourselves. We have invested millions in war stamps, Liberty bonds, the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A. and other kindred organizations, we are enduring the sacrifices incident to war, without complaint; we weep when America weeps; we bleed when America bleeds! so our brave soldiers are dying! most most courageous by man to keep the government of the people and by the people" from perishing from the earth, and it seems to us that as a reward for this unparalleled devotion, white America ought to be willing to lay aside its antagonistic race prejudice as a means to help win this war. 8. A committee of three is hereby appointed to present the appeal to the Secretary of War, and a similar committee to present the appeal to the director-general of the railroads. (Signed) G. E. CANNON, Chairman; C. V. ROMAN, W. C. GORDON, E. T. BELSAW, Secretary; A. M. BROWN, J. C. McFALL, A. M. CURTIS, A. W. WILLIAMS, W. H. HIGGINS, J. A. LESTER, Executive Board.

WILL BE HELD AT dressing the great Southern Baptist Convention and conveying to them your greetings. Dr. J. B. Gambrell, sage, parliamentarian, president and wonderful man introduced your servant, remarking that he would not be a Baptist if they could not divide. Dr. C. T. Walker of Augusta, eloquently represented the incorporated brethren. I spoke as best I could, and following my address, two broad-minded Baptists, the Hon. M. Burt of Houston, Texas, and Mr. Wolfe of Fort Worth, promised $5,000.00 each to assist in the work of the church; this task was great pleased and expressed the hope that $50,000,000.00 could have subscribed had the opportunity been given. The rules of the convention did not allow at this time the taking of subscriptions. I am convinced now as never before that some day our white brethren will see the whole truth of this controversy, and when that awakening comes they will not longer finance propositions destructive to the Baptist force, for their is no denial that for three years the funds donated by the Southern Baptist Convention through its Home Mission Board have been used contrary to the intent and purposes. God hasten the day when triade and abuse fed and kept alive by this assistance shall be left to own resources. Here I bolly assent since the nucleus long since the orthodox and unaltered servants of this convention would have completely and absolutely silenced the untruthful, utility alarmist out of whose mouth have gone forth statements unfounded, but calculated to mislead the untutored and the wary. You ordered at Atlanta, the appointment of a commission on peace, not organic union, to report to you here at this session. Drs. D. B. Gaines, G. W. Alexander, E. W. Bowen, J. W. Hurse, S. R. Prince, J. L. Harding and S. S. Jones of Oklahoma, were appointed. They were adjudicated by the noblest. At Alexandra, Louisiana, June 13th, your Executive Board hear the report and at the proper time it will be presented to you. At no time during the entire year did I conceive the impression that the report of the Commissioners was subject to the other before this convention, for the created committee could not rise above the creator. My course was determined and all the tearful persuasion did not move me. Your orders are my commands, and in your absence so long as you trust to me I shall see to their fulfillment. I had rather walk the pathway o f obedience alone, fighting back the onslaughts of the critics and know all than to wear a crown filled with diamonds plucked from deserving brows. May I make my self clear, I do not know your course, or the choice of your ways, but I have chosen that which I believe to be right, I have declared that the Publishing board holds in trust all the rights of all those at Nashville about which there is dispute and that the sole issue is control and not ownership, and having plighted my faith in your presence here today I want to declare to you that I stand or fall upon these convictions. We all want peace. I know we are at peace, but there must be no theorising or temporizing. If this convention standing with Dr. Boyd and the Publishing Board has misled the millions of followers throughout the earth, then like men of God let us confess it, and if others have cried "thief when they knew there was no thief, then the altar is ready, and the hand of welcome extended, but in the fullness of golden sunshine on a cross of faith, they shall not without my protest hang in ignominy and shame, integrity achievement and opportunity. Foreign Missions The heavy heaving sea floods the way to our brothers walking in darkness and shame, our souls are pained at the facts as they exist. The disjointed times makes more intense their suffering and our longing to present them our blessed redeemer. Dr. J. H. Frank, Chairman and Dr. R Kemp, Corresponding Secretary of your Board will tell you fully of their needs. I shall not here discuss the various Bodies and their tufes, they are our relations have in all instances been pleasant and cordial and you may look forward to accomplishments worthy of your great deposition. One hundred years ago our first church was founded in Africa, Hon. J. J. Cheeseman, a Baptist minister served as president of the Republic of Liberia as well as pastor of our church. And now my brethren let us thank God that we are living at this period of the world's history, a day when prophecy is being fulfilled and the gorious old church of our redeemer bought by his precious blood looks to the heights of Calvary, takes courage and goes forth to the furtherance of his kingdom to the uttermost ends of the earth. President Wilson, clothed with the authority of this great republic, this young man, the glorious galaxy of nations unwillingly and reluctantly joined heart, hand and soul to make perpetual the cause of liberty freedom and justice Bleeding France, despoiled Belgium and crippled England and all the angel of mercy, seeking not conquest or indemnity but determined to make the world fit for democracy and democracy fit for the world. It's the greatest stride to the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man since the "it is finished," made one common altar, and one Lord and one Faith and one Baptism. Democracy is the tried ordained government of the Baptist church, under its folds there can be no hate, no distinctions because of wealth, birth or position. The entire world will become the home of the just. God will reign supreme and fellowship will be universal, the demagogue would array while we are to defeat, rich against poor is needed to defeat. It won't hurt our beat. Nine-tenths of the peele of the earth are at war, grim visaged war, terrible war, horrible war, the bleached bones of babes and ruined cathedrals alike are unprotected from the weather and sun, while autocracy assumes to itself mastery but do not forget out of this dreary night will come the full dawn of hope A glimmering star wandered forth across the horizon of light, for Press dent Wilson, this same guardian of the 20th Century, has spoken for law and order, and condemned lynchings and lawlessness, and surely his voice heard in frozen Siberia is audible in a cline of love and temperance. As the nations die for liberty, let the church hold forth the imperishable doctrines dedicated to the cause of uplift and mercy. Our hearts should be the citadels of righteousness and our tongues attuned toging its praise. Let others hate, but we must love, mighit, mighit, but we must mighit, today a soldier liberating the world, yesterday wandering in Africa uncouth and unrefined, today six hundred thousand from Africa holding safe the lines for our brethren, upon whose brow a thousand years of civilization have fallen bearing burdens, sharing sorrows, drying tears, abused and maligned, yet not discouraged. God lives, victory is near. Berlin trembles, our boys are at the front; they will never fall. Potsdam surrenders, democracy holds sway, the war is over, a heaven and a heaven and a God. God will be day when the earth shall be one great meeting house, and one pulpit shall serve the nations and the prince of peace shall be enthroned forever in the hearts of men. "Upon this rock I build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it," was the dvine sequence of the stranger in the wilderness. His orders came not from the hands of an earthly ruler or diplomat, nor did he seek their approval but as one whose mission was from the foundation and whose obedience was to him above. He stood alone and Judea heard his wonderful cry. His meat was locusts and wild honey and a leathern girdle was about his loins, but his commission was from above. The gospel minister is ordained and called of God and as he goes it is his duty to keep an eye single to the purposes of his Master. Do not get discouraged or dismayed. "For every foot of ground I will give unto the only be of goo courage." "not a hair of your head shall be hurt, I will be with you always." "Go ye therefore into all the world and teach all nations." No specific but broad application is here made. All and that all included me it included you. It included the mill lions of Hotentots and rude sea is landers and not until His word shall have been preached to all the earth shall the end be. "Count that day lost whose low descending sun, views from thy hand no noble action done." Slumber not nor sleep, preach the word! be constructive in your work and ways. Stand for or in the face and in business fix your souls a building not made with hands eternal in the heavens with God. Recommendations I recommend that at this session you elect a Board of Trustees, one from each convention, to whom the Seminary at Nashville may be conveyed. It is now Field in trust by the trustee appointed, and that five trustees be elected whose domicile is Nashville and that each Woman's Baptist State Convention also be given representation. Seven Trustees THE PRODUCT FLOUR LBONTE FOR MATERIAL USE ONLY IN THE HOME OF THE BARK AND COURSE LIBERTY MILLS EVERREADY MAGAZINE Good Commission Paid. Write to Circulation Dept. EVERREADY MAGAZINE Somerville, Tenn. from the country at large shall also be elected. B. That the Trustees be authorized and ordered to open the school by the 15th of October, 1918 and do such things as they deem necessary for its maintenance and operation and that said Trustees report to this Convention at its next session. EVERY Preacher C. That immediately upon the adoption of this recommendation five hundred pastors be and are requested to enroll, pledging $2 monthly for the support of said Seminary, said money to be sent to the Treasurer or the Trustee Board at Nashville and to be paid out when ordered by the local Board of Management by voucher signed by the secretary and president and that monthly the receipts and disbursements shall be published through the columns of the Union-Review. D. That the Convention fix the second Sunday in May as Educational Day and call upon all churches and auxiliaries to rally on said day to the support of the Seminary. That we renew our support to the Union-Review and as last year duplicate our efforts for broadening its influence by securing subscribers. That this Convention petition the Congress as well as the President of the U. S. to extend the age limits for chaplains to 50 years. There being many physically fit and even prepared for service who are anxious to serve but are prohibited because of these limitations.

With reference to Article 1, the charter of the Incorporated Convention recommended to be cancelled did not state time for an annulling. With reference to Article II, Incorporated Convention did not bring the suit and we have no assurance that the individuals who brought the suit will withdraw it. (b) In order to avoid division after consolidation, it is necessary that both Conventions have the same interpretation of Denominational control, for in the judgement of your committee, the terms denomination and continual center do not mean the same thing. (c) In that it pointed out the taking of necessary steps to get possession, it should have also recommended a proposed constitution for the consideration of both bodies along with peace terms. With reference to Article II, the constitution of the National Baptist Convention does not give its Board the right to change the time and place of its annual meeting without occurrences over which the parent body has no control to prevent its meetings at the time and place fixed. We recommend that the report of the Peace Commission be approved and recommended to the National Baptist Convention for adoption.
