C. HUESTON. Of the National Realty and Investment Co., Gary, Ill. Gary, Ind.—During Thanksgiving week, at St. Louis, Missouri, when many distinguished men and women had gathered there for the purpose of taking part in the dedicatory exercises of the new annex to Poro College, I met Fred E. Moore, editor and publisher of The New York Age. Mr. Moore said to me: "The race is under many obligations to you as a member of the firm of Hueston Molliony which has waged so many legal battles in upholding the manhood rights of the American Negro." Because of that he was interested in the fact that I had become active in the development of Gary, Indiana, and he was kind enough to say that he knew my becoming a factor in Gary was from some earlier time when mere money making. Because of this he said further—"I want you to write for The New York News on Gary, and tell the people what you are doing there as well." This will not attempt at compliance with that request. Republican Women of Harlem Hosts at "Turkey Festival" Missquished gathering assembled on Friday evening, December 17, at 11:30 a.m. Blist street, the headquarters of the Roosevelt Women's Republi- cation League, Mine. Pauline Dempsey, president, in response to invitations to that organization to a "Turkey Festival," the proceeds from which are needed to provide Christmas cheer for the poor children and old folks on the continent and toward establishing a permanent home for the League. One of the strongest and most prominent women in Harlem are mem- rials of the Roosevelt Republican League, and it is to their credit that they have faithfully and rendered splendid service in the cause of Republi- cation. Much of the success of Miss Marguerite L. Smith, Assembl- ance from the 19th A. D., is due to the support given her by this body of located at the extreme south- west Lake Michigan, about 15 miles eastern city limits of Chicago, and on of the great industrial dis- skirts Lake Michigan in the Northeast Illinois and Indiana. Founded in 1996 It is in 1906 that the great steel industry of America, in locating for it in which to meet their chief intuitions—and I say that it is no other phrase describes the name that now bears the name that time. I am informed, that the most unprepossessed piece it was made up of chiefly in much places, nothing else in much places, nothing else in much places, were that the chief in America skirt the coast and particularly Lake Suisse, the short soft deposits are in Illinois, the stone quarries are in especially at Redford, are unpressed. In order to manufacture steel have to have iron ore, soft coal and good stone. The Steel people having found at on a great natural harbor, erected here their largest group of rolling mills, at a cost of Four Hundred Million dollars, and are at present starting a program that calls for the Expenditure of power One. Hundred Million dollars. And the reason for the selection of this mine, the great development, is set in the fact that above enumerated. The steel company mined its own ore in its own mines, built its own larger, and under its own direction and control hauled the ore to its own mills, which had been built so as to give the largest possible water haul toward the great distribution center of the Steel Industry.

Much of the success of women on the 19th A. De is due to the women. In worth of note that the Central Republican Committee has great pleasure in the Roosteet Women's League. The women rendered woman in the Primary and on the days in getting the men and women to register, and on election day the women covered the entire district in getting the voters out.

Steel Produced Cheaply. Thus, in the language of Judge Gary of the United States Steel Company, whose chief mills are in Gary, as expressed in a speech made by him in Duluth, Minn., "Steel can be produced in Gary, Minnesota, more cheaper than in Duluth, and 25 per cent cheaper than in Pittsburgh, Penn. That being to be unassessed facilities for assembling the raw material and the distribution of the finished product to together with a sure combination with other things which are necessary in the manufacture of steel including, the Wonderful efficiency of her up-to-date plan, enable Gary to produce steel at the lowest cost." So you have the original why of Gary, Indiana. Above I have mentioned the U.S. Steel Co., which has several subsidiary Companies here, under different names: the Illinois Steel Co., Indiana Steel Co., American Sheet and Tin Plate Co., National Tube Co., and several others, involving an investment of nearly a half billion dollars. In these industries there are employed over 28,000 men and a few hundred women. There are many other industries that are not controlled. Steel company, direct, but are here to be near the parent steel co., for their production in most cases is based upon steel. Gary's Population. In the beginning of this article, I spoke of the beginning of this city. In May, 1906, there was not a person here; the 1920 centus fixed the permanent population above 55,000.

HALL Washington, D. C.—Never before in the history of our racial development has there been such a demand for efficient accountants and auditors, bookkeepers, stenographers, clerks, secretaries, commercial agents, insurance actuaries, agents and adjusters, bank cashiers and tellers, stock salesmen, business managers, purchasing agents, and for trained men to fill other remunerative positions that open the gateway to the path of endless opportunity, as there is today. Business Growth Creates Need for Thinied Help. The growth of business enterprises among our people during recent months has been marvelous and in listing 110 enterprises taken from the advertising columns of our leading colored newspapers, I find an aggregate capitalization in excess of thirty million dollars for such enterprises as amusement parks, bakeries, banks, bonding companies, broom factories, building and loan associations, casket factories, chain drug stores, chemical laboratories, clothing factories, coal mining companies, cooperative grocery stores, department stores, finance corporations, fire and life insurance companies, furniture companies, hotel and housing corporations, ice factories, investment companies, newspapers, publishing companies, really companies, steam laundries, shipship companies, stove companies, theaters, wholesale commission houses; in fact, we find an unimproper growth of business institutions that require the services of young men and women who have received a thorough business training, and who have the energy to apply themselves. From every community where there is a progressive group of cofedral people comes the story of business activity, and from every such community also comes the wife, who is investing money, that it is impossible to hire trained, young cofedral men and women who are efficient clerks, stonographers, bookkeepers, accountants and salesmen. leads to the sidewalk rather than to permanent employment. No Place for the Incopeable. There is absolutely no chance in the business world for the young men and women who target to prepare themselves but for those who can deliver the goods, there are golden opportunities. Bright Commercial Future. With the large and steady increase in the number on business enterprises owned and operated by colored men in all parts of the country, there is an exceedingly bright future before the young men and women in the world and who through diligent study prepare themselves. But the business world is no place place for the poser; for the fellow who watches the clock, for the fellow who is not punctual, who does not keep his engagements, who cannot write a letter or correctly add a column of figures, who does not deal in his appearance, who does not have a pleasing manner of approach and address, and above all for the fellow who does not know what he is trying to do. The stenographer who is unable to quickly and correctly transcribe his or her notes has no place in a well organized business concern the typist who can operate only one kind of machine, and who expect this business office to furnish job in a stone quarry or in the well used job in a stone laundry, or in the business firms are not changing their office equipment every time a new clerk is hired. And the stenographer who puts in a letter that is badly punctured, that is longer marked or not neat in appearance, or in which simple words are misnellied, had better correct these faults before applying for a position, because such inefficiency is inexhaustible and WOMANFAKESASSAULT, NEGROES ARE CHARGED (Special to The New York Act) Pittsburgh, Pa.—The Negro race was again made to suffer an undeserved accusation when an aged white woman, whose wealthy husband, would not stay home at night, staged a "hold-up" in her home and charged that "two Negroes" had attacked her. Police officers called in found the woman in a semi-prostrate state, according to Associated Press dispatches, with her clothing virtually torn to ribbons, furniture in various rooms overturned and broken and the interior of the house hearing every indication of having been ransacked and of having been the scene of a terrific struggle. The "brutal attack" soon, faded away, however, under questioning by the police officers, and the woman confessed that she had faked the attack in order to frighten her husband and keep him home at night. She is, Mrs. Dandridge Robertson, aged 67, of TU2 Meadle Street, this city, and her husband is vice-president and treasurer of the Pittsburgh Oil and Gas Company, with offices in the Farmers' Bank. The exclusive residential neighborhood was thrilled by the reported attack and for awhile the officers were at their wits end to find a tangible clue to the alleged assault. The affair was staged about 10 p. m. and the call sent in to the Frankstown Avenue Police Station carried a detail of detectives to the house in short order.

No Place for the Incanable There is absolutely no chance in the business world for the young men and women who neglect to prepare themselves but for those who can deliver the goods, there are golden opportunities for success, particularly now when the men of our race are establishing all kinds of enterprises and are looking everywhere for young men and women who have received a thorough business training, and upon whom they can depend to protect their investments and operations.

But—when Ellis Island was reached the indignant and insulted employees went immediately to the Commissioner of immigration and so warm did they make COLORED MEN VISIT RADIOS IN PANAMA (Special to THE NEW YORK Am) Colon, Panama—During the recent visit of President-elect Harding to the Isthmus of Panama, he received in an interview at the Hotel Washington, his headquarters on the Atlantic side, a delegation bearing the greetings of the colored Americans of the Isthmus and Canal Zone. The delegation, through its spokesman, William C. Todd, J. D., and alumnus of the University of Michigan and a highly successful attorney of Colon, expressed congratulations to the President-elect and also so the country on its choice. The other members of the delegation, W. C. Nook, J. C. Collins, J. A. Heller, W. V. Eaglestone, and K. C. Manning. Senator Harding received them very cordially, expressing pleasure at the greeting and the good wishes promoting same.

Bishop Clair was formerly pastor of the Asbury Methodist Episcopal Church, Washington, D. C., and during that time he rebuilt the edifice and raised the membership to its present huge proportions. He has been assigned to Liberia to fill the place made vacant by the death of Missionary Bishop A. Camphor of Memorria, and died last summer in this country. Missionary bishops were abolished at the last general conference and all bishops of every race are now elected to full rank. Bishop Clair is accompanied to Memorria by Mrs. Clair, Dr. John H. Reed of Liberia, and Civil Henry of Montreal. Dr. Reed is a native of Proton Rouge, Louisiana, and a graduate of New Orleans University. He went to Liberia in 1905 as a missionary under the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church. He was made president of the College of West Africa maintained in Monrovia by American Methodists. In 1914 Dr. Reed took out his citizenship papers in Liberia and was appointed principal of Dougan Institute under the Liberian government. He has made five trips to this country and attended conferences in Liberia and the Methodist Episcopal General Conference in 1912, 1916 and 1920. Dr. Reed will continue in educational work in Liberia as superintendent of education. Civil Henry is a native of Jamaica and a graduate of the English High School of Boston. He received his degree of bachelor of scientific agriculture from Ontario Agricultural College in 1919. He is going to Liberia as an agricultural missionary under the Methodist Board of Foreign Missions. He will take charge of the industrial school and demonstration farm to be established at White Plains, Liliberia, under the new Methodist Center program.

CORNERSTONE APPEAL FOR ROOSEVELT HOME All those who feare the memory of Theodore Roosevelt will want to place their name in the corner-stone of Roosevelt House, 28 East 20th stret, New York City, which will be laid on January 6, 1921, with die ceremony—just two years after that great spirit passed into the beyond. The Woman's Roosevelt Memorial Association is sending broadcast a card appeal with ten detachable red bricks. The recipient is asked to sign one brick and return in the箱 with one dollar—which brick will be placed in a metal box in the corner-stone of Roosevelt House. You are asked to secure family or friends names if possible on the other nine bricks. The Woman's Roosevelt Memorial Association stands alone in ownership of the birth site of Theodore Roosevelt. They feel that all citizens of these United States should have the opportunity of placing their names in the cornerstone of Roosevelt House to do honor to the memory of one of our greatest presidents. The Woman's Roosevelt Memorial Association was the first to organize after Colonel Roosevelt's death. They promptly ensured an option on the birth site of that great man and also the adjointing property. In the just two years they have paid for the property with money collected from many friends. If you do not receive your brick enclose your door and forward to the Woman's Roosevelt Memorial Association, I East 51st street, New York City. Every brick will go in the corner-stone on January 6, 1921, and every name is to be placed in the bank of Donors which will be in the house. The idea of the presentation will be sent to the president of the dollar. Reports of various degrees of credibility to the effect that the informant Ku Khix Klan recently revived in Georgia and other southern states intends to organize a branch lodge in New York City has been met by a statement from Alfred J. Tallay, Chief Assistant District Attorney of New York County, which declares that "there is no reason in this great broad misused state of New York for so much American an organization as the Ku Khix Klan. Mr. Tallay made this statement to respond to requesting the various metropolitan papers, but most of them gave cant space to the rising emphatic declaration of the Assistant District Attorney. Talking to Titre later, Mr. Tallay gave it a full opinion that inattentively controlling New York dailies seem inclined to an egistic attitude when matters affect southern opinions and ideas are the subject of discussion.

NEGRO STOCK EXCHANGE Announcement was made last week of the intention to start a stock exchange to be owned and controlled solely by Negroes which is expected to open in Harlem about the first of the year. According to the plans of the promoters, trading will be done only in the issues of corporations owned and managed by members of the race. One of the trustees of the new enterprise is authority for the statement that in New York alone, there are more than 100 corporations, all backed by Negro capital and selling their securities to those of the race seeking investments. "Some of these are good," he said, some are very bad, rank fakes. We propose to separate the sheep from the goats and to safeguard the Negro investor by a guarantee that when the stock is listed on the Exchange its management is honest, it is in sound financial condition, it is a going concern and can fulfill its promises." Within the past year The Ace has frequently directed attention to this phase of the matter and urged the necessity for some sort of organized protection for the investors of the race, who were urged on the ground of race pride or inflated prospectuses to put their savings into risky ventures. This plan of stock exchange goes even further than was deemed possible at that time, and its proposition to furnish the investor with a guarantee of the character indicated involves a pretty big contract. To assure the buyer of securities that the concern issuing them is under honest management, in sound financial condition and is a going concern; demands a personal knowledge of the character and business antecedents of the promoters as well as a searching audit by expert accountants of the finances of the business. But to guarantee its ability to fulfill its promises is a farreaching proposition, which would require a degree of financial clarivoyance, that would bring a high price in Wall street. Let the promoters of the New York Stock Exchange be careful that they do not bite off more than they can chew. If they can exclude the fakes and get-quick propositions, those schemes have no more substantial basis than the stereotyped appeal to race pride, with legitimate business development to take them up, they will be doing well. Let them employ the highest degree of business sagacity and accounting ability they can secure, in order to determine the reliability of the investments they propose to list. The prospectives and balance sheets submitted by some promoters are sufficient to stamp their enterprises as visionary, to say the least. The carrying out of the purposes outlined for the exchange should increase demand for skilled accountants, for which there already existed a need. The qualified public accountant is as necessary to the development of the successor corporation as the legal adviser who guides over its coming into the world business. This will open up a new profession which our ambitious youth can aptitude for mathematical academy should take advantage of. Let them study the science of accounts and work for the degree of C. P. A. that the Negro Stock Exchange should consider wet oetre it gives a guarant- ment any corporation can fulfill its measure, that is if the guarantee is to receive any permanent value. a great city like New York is bound have a magnetic attraction For the drift from all parts of the country Good and bad, indolent and intrusive, black and white, farri and they come from all quarters not in the United States, but from lands. The present criminal of murder and burglary is large attributed to an influx of migratory and Kumu* who have heard history of violence against strife given to city perp in the cities world. These and lands have with representation as to where the wouldrike take place. But the trouble of the great city were not to stop at such crude criminally as mere murder and burglary. Added to the existing crime wave came a report that, the band of Southern white thugs and murderers known as the Ku Klux Klan intended to extend their operations to New York City. As this organization does not stop at murder, but includes every cowardly form of intimidation, mental and physical, including lasghest regalia, bodily torture ending with arson and assassination, the announcement was the last straw laid upon the backs of the sorely tried legal protectors of the country. The acting district attorney met the announcement of this new evil threatening the people by the blunt declaration that there was no room in the great broadminded State of New York for so un-American an organization. Continuing he laid down this broad principle: "The genius of our laws and the dominant tenets of the constitution is the solemn declaration that all men are created equal and have an equal right to happiness and the pursuit of happiness. This means all Americans, no matter what their color or creed. If Lincoln was a real American this organization is opposed to every thing Lincoln stood for. This ringing enunciation of a great truth should have special significance for those county legal authorities of most of the Southern States who have not only allowed, but in some cases aided in the revival of the Ku Klux Klan by giving it legal recognition. New York may be best by bandits and burglar, graffers and gunmen, but it has no room for such a cowardly crew as the Ku Kux Klan. WOMEN GETTING TOGETHER. WOMEN GETTING TOGETHER. An auspicious sign of the time was the meeting of a group of leading colored women with member of the National Board of the Young Women's Christian Association in this city a few weeks ago, for the purpose of conference and discussion. Candor of utterance and logical thinking on the one mutual friendliness. The methods and administration of the organization were fully gone into and their purpose demonstrated. The reported discrimination against colored women by the Y. W. C. A. in Paris was frankly discussed, and the reply received from Paris was accepted as satisfactorily explaining the action, which had been misinterpreted. As others of the party besides the colored delegates had been assigned to hotels, it was denied that race prejudice was the reason why accommodations had not been reserved for them at the American Women's Club. All in all, this conference called by National Board was considered by the women present as a step in the right direction. As was truly said by one of them, mutual interests demand mutual understanding and to do team work each race must better understand the other. Special reference was made at this conference to the splendid work accomplished by Miss Eva D. Bowles, in the efforts to bring the women of the two races together along these lines of mutual understanding. The outcome was a pledge to real service in the righteous adjustment of differences, and the continued striving for a unity of effort in constructive work for the wopanhood of all races. THE GREATEST NIRTUE. A notable tribute was recently paid to the Negro-school children of Birmingham, Ala., by the Birmingham Aztecs, in an editorial in which it proclaimed that the Negro School children of Birmingham shame the whites in generous giving." The article is not only notable for the facts it gives, but for the unreserved commentation that it carries for the children of the hintero despised race, and the lesson that is drawn for the so-called dominant race to copy. The occurrence that gave rise to this comment grew out of the Thanksgiving offering taken in the public schools of that commercial metropolis of the South. The total amount raised in the Negro schools, which was contributed to Negro charities, was $2,193.73. But the lesson lay in the fact that each Negro child gave an average of 20 cents, while the average for the white child was 19 cents. The figures for the high schools showed an even greater disparity. The per capita for the Negro high school was $1.23, while the rate for the whites was but 37 cents. The Newes emphasized the fact that while the Negroes do not compare in aggregate wealth or aggregate earning capacity with the whites, yet the children of the so-called inferior race outstriped the wealthier race. It reads this occurrence as a lesson and a rebuke all the more potent because it was unintentional and there was no question of rivalry. It may be accepted as an outstanding fact that charity is one of the primitive virtues, of the Negro race—"Faith, Hope and Charity, these three, but the greatest of these is Charity." When a community like Birmingham can draw such a valuable lesson from its untidied action of the school children, the race in a great city like New York can also profit in the same way. The Negroes of New York possess a number of deserving institutes, all engaged in active and useful work for the welfare of the race. The degree of support given these institutes by the members of the race could easily be much greater than it now is. Let us all learn by the example of the school, children, or Birmingham and adults, our fellow-in-law, by behalf, 64, the community, and we have among us EVAIVE HUMBUG. This Sunday newspapers carried the report of the Naval Board of Inquiry which had been sitting at Jort-au-Prince, Haiti, to inquire into the conduct of American marines in that Republic. The report was made public by Secretary Daniels. The complete report, of course, was not printed, but enough of it to show that it amounts to nothing more than an official "whitewashing". It was not to be expected that the Court of Inquiry, consisting of naval men, would do more than soften and obscure charges brought against a branch of the Navy. The verdict of the court was that there had been only two "unjustifiable homicides" committed by marines in Haiti, since their presence there. This verdict is absurd on its face and the only reason why the American public can be expected to accept it would be in the belief that the American people have no particular interest in what was done in Haiti. It has been admitted in the inaccurate statistics given out by the Navy Department, that more than 3,000 Haitians have been killed. General Barnett, in his report said that the number of Haitian killings by marines during American occupation amounted to 3,250. When General Barnett made public that statement, the mathematicians of the Navy Department at once got busy and began shaving the number down. They immediately lopped off 1,000, saying that there had been a mistake made in addition. Then they continued to lop off one or two here and one or two there, but despite, all this shaving down, the number of Haitians killed still remained in the thousands. That this mass-killing was not committed in open and fair fighting is proved by the fact that only one American officer and twelve marines, against upwards of 3,000 Haitians, were killed in five years. Most of the Haitians were killed in what they call "caco-hunts", in which fleeing people, often unarmed, were shot down by machine guns, whose bullets did not discriminate between sexes. It is ridiculous to say that in all of these killings only two were "indiscriminate": The fact is that all the killings of Haitians by marines were "indiscriminate killings." They were all illegal and unjustifiable by international law, moral law or any other law, other than that of force; and for the simple reason that the United States Government and the United States military force had absolutely no right to be in Haiti except by the right of might exercised by a great power to seize a small and weak country. This Government claims that its presence and the presence of its armed force in Haiti are sanctioned by a treaty between the United States and Haitian governments; but it must be remembered that our armed forces were in Haiti before that treaty was signed and that the treaty was signed under duress. Neither can the Navy Department by any sort of evasive humbug ignore the report of General Barnett. The General was not an outside critic of marine activity but was the Commandant of the marine corps. The only reason for him to make the statement that he was shocked by things that were going on in Haiti, was the fact that conditions were worse than he stated them to be. It is also obvious that pressure was brought upon the General to induce him to soften his original statement. It would be interesting to know why General Barnett was relieved of his command in the early part of this year. Perhaps the Secretary of the Navy will say something to the American people on this point. The truth about Haiti cannot be brought out by any military inquiry into what the Haitian people have suffered from the American military forces; that is bad enough, but not the worse part of the whole story. President D'Artiguenave said in his statement issued some weeks ago, "the condition which depressed the Haitian people most is the usurpation of all their civil rights by the American Civil Administration." "What is needed in the Haitian affair is pitiless publicity, not only of military and civil forces, but also on the conduct of the Naval Board of Inquiry." Since the expose of Haitian conditions was made in the United States, the greatest result thus far achieved in Haiti has been the liberation of the Haitian press. When this writer was in Haiti, no Haitian newspaper or Haitian citizen, or even American merchant doing business there, dared to open their mouths in any word of complaint against the American Occupation. We have lately received a large number of copies of Haitian newspapers and they are speaking plainly in denunciation not only of what the American Occupation has done, but of the conduct of the Naval Court of Inquiry. They have bitterly criticized the Court for not hearing grievances that should have been heard. Publicity is what is needed and an inquiry into all phases of the American Occupation. This cannot be secured by any close military investigating board, but only by a Congressional investigation of the widest scope. KU KLJIX KLAN OF THE·NORTH. Some day ago, the Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, with headquarters at Atlanta, announced-in the New York papers that the Klan was ready to obey a New York call whenever it might be made. He intimated that a charter was being organized in this city. The Washington "Post" of last Monday carried a news notice which aid that Imperial Wizard Simmons announced that the Klan will be organized also in Washington, D. C. These threats of organizing Klans in other northern cities are not idle ones, and the colored people of the country, especially of the North, had better bestir. themselves. It would be interesting to note how much of the friction and trouble between the races that has cropped out in northern cities was due to clandestine operations of this organization. There is no doubt that they are using their influence even in cities where they are not completely organized. It may not be that they would use the same tactics in the North as they have used in the South; they might work in a more subtle and thereby more dangerous manner. It is already thought by well-informed persons that the treatment which colored laboring men, especially those temporarily out of employment, are receiving in such industrial centers as Buffalo and Cleveland, is due very largely to the machinations of southern forces, best in compelling the Negro to return back South as a laborer. When the protest was made to the United States District Attorney regarding the announced organization of the Ku Klux Klan in New York City, he responded in no uncertain terms. Chief Assistant District Attorney Alfred J. Talley made a statement in which he said: "There is no room in the great, broad-minded State of New York for so un-American an organization as the Ku Klux Klan. The pretentions that it apparently makes to patroltism enforce Samuel Johnson's definition of patroltism as 'the last refuge of a aoundrel', No secret, oath-bound, organization is needed to preserve and perpetuate devotion to the American government nor, to uphold the laws of the land and the Constitution upon which our government is founded." This assurance from the office of New York's District Attorney, that the Klan will not be allowed to organize and operate in New York State, is the kind of slave we want to hear from the authorities who have jurisdiction over this matter. Nevertheless District new, the Man should be organized, we wish individual of our colored fellow citizens of this city to extend to them the cordial invitation that on their first parade with their sheets over their heads and their various, other paraphernalia, that they will extend their line of march up Lenox Avenue as far as 135th Street. We promise that by the time they cross the Harfam River—that is those who can swim—they will be without sheets and wet to the skin. BERNARD SHAW ON LYNCHING In a special cable to one of the New York newspapers Mr. Bernard Shaw delivered himself on anarchy in European politics and on several other kindred subjects. Assay one knows Mr. Shaw is always pungent in whatever he says. In the course of his remarks he paid this compliments to the United States on lynching. It appears that what he said on lynching was stimulated by some photographs which he said had been sent to him. The writer has an idea that he knows exactly which photographs Mr. Shaw had reference to. The following is his paragraph on lynching: Now, lynching is anarchism in practice, and it is absurd that the United States, whilst fiercely persecuting theoristic anarchists and refusing to admit to their shores any anarchists, at all except those who, not being George Washington, make no scruple about telling a lie under compulsion, should at the same time tolerate the practice of anarchists who have their photographs taken red-handed as openly as the late Thiodore Roosevelt had his taken on the carecases of elephants or lions, he shot in Africa." The force of the above statement is so much the stronger when we remember that only a few days ago the United States government gave orders for the deportation of a couple of dozen of theoretic anarchists; that is, people who are charged with preaching anarchy, but who have not yet put their preaching into effect. On the other hand, the country is full of active anarchists, men who openly flout the established courts and the law, and who are never punished in any way. The anarchists who are being deported are for the most part mild and harmless individuals who are preaching what they believe to be necessary reforms in government. The active anarchists in the country are carrying out every day their destruction of law. Men who have invaded the courts and taken away the prisoner at the bar and put him to death, and men who have burned human beings alive at the stake have had their photographs taken in the act; the Government deportes the theoretic anarchists; but no means have been found to punish the men who are daily defying and overthrowing the law. As Shaw says, it is absurd. THE REV. GOV. CATTS. The Reverend Governor Cattisidence a few days ago with Mr. J. state board of health and publisher sheds an interesting light on His Ex it seems, has been making some attacks brought a personal letter from The Governor in his letter as not mad" and that he was "not go However, the missive concluded you publish one more page in your time or my business or my children at Beach, Fla., with my double-barrel and have a final settlement with what sort of action the Governor in passions aroused. Well, we don't see much change whose own governor's appeal for double-barrel shotgun. The Reverend Governor Catts of Florida had some correspondence a few days ago with Mr. Joe. L. Earman, president of the state board of health and publisher of the Palm Beach "Post," which sheds an interesting light on His Excellency's moods. Mr. Earman, it seems, has been making some attacks on the Governor, and these attacks brought a personal letter from the latter to the former. The 'Governor' in his letter assured Mr. Earman that he was not mad" and that he was "not going to remove him from office." However, the missive concluded with the following paragraph: "If you publish one more page in your paper like this 'last one or bother me or my business or my children any more I will go to West Palm Beach, Fla., with my double-barrel shotgun loaded with buckshot, and have a final settlement with you.' We should like to know what sort of action the Governor takes when he really has his angry passions aroused. Well, we don't see much chance, for law and order in Florida whose own governor's appeal for redress is to a buckshot loaded double-barrel shotgun. A FAMOUS LAYMAN GONE. It is, setidom that one of the laity wins a conspicuous position as a figure in a religious denomination, no matter of what creed or race it may be. All the positions of prominence in religious or organizations rise usually filled by the members of the ministerial profession or the priesthood. Thelate John C. Daney was a standing exception to this rule. He had won a prominence in Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church surpassed by but few of the bishops and hardly any of the patrons. Thirty years or more ago, Mr. Daney began his editorial work in connection with the publications of this branch of Methodism and at his death he was secretary of the church extension board. At the same time he pursued an active and successful career in politics and the holding of public office. Genial of addresses and pleasing in personality, his church connections did not cause him to ape a saintly foreignity to his nature. Rather he reflected the warmth of his geniality into his religious relations, without detracting from the dignity due the church. The possibility of active and useful service in religious organizations by lay workers was strikingly, illustrated in the career of John C. Dancy. Without losing his hold on secular affairs, he was able to maintain his standing as a leading official of his connection and the denomination was better able to keep in touch with the lay sentiment through this inclusion of a layman, in its councils. SCHOOL CHILDREN NEEDS Too often the fact is lost sight of that the boys and girls attending the excellent schools provided by the State, require a constant referral of encouragement to keep them causally at their studies. The pursuit of education is not always so smooth a road, even for the young, in the face of adverse conditions at home or at school, or perhaps in both places. Indifference on the part of the parents and discouragement by an unfriendly teacher have sent many a boy or girl out of school to struggle for a living, with but a idle of the schooling required for preparation. Cooperation between the parents and teachers is necessary to arrive at a satisfactory understanding of the best way to advance the interests of the pupils. Parents' Associations in the various schools can do much to bring about this needed cooperation and the pupils are encouraged to do their best under the eyes of both, parties to the under-announcing. Whenever possible, the pupils should be given the benefit of the high school training, as the increased expense to the parents during this period is fully realized by the smaller educational institutions. of Florida had some correspond-oe. L. Earman, president of the of the Palm Beach "Post," which excellency's moods. Mr. Earman, tacks on the Governor, and these from the latter to the former. assured Mr. Earman, that he was going to remove him from office, with the following paragraph: "If paper like this last one or bother any more I will go to West Palm shotgun loaded, with buckshot, you." We should like to know takes when he really has his angry force for law, and order in Florida redress is to a huckshot-loaded seight wherever it is provided. The efforts of a few teachers who seek to discourage colored pupils from pursuing a high school course, or seeking educational training should be reported and exposed, as their attitude is based on individual Sias and wholly unauthorized by the higher educational authorities. Let the parents take a more active interest in the progress of their child in the schools. Encourage their efforts by attending the meetings of the parents' associations and keeping in touch with the school activities. It will help both scholars and teachers to the full performance of their duties. Commenting on the revival of the Ku Klux Klan, in Houston, the Texas Freemason said: Having noted the weak-heed attitude of official authority in Houston, respecting the recent activities of the Klu Klu Klau, thinking Negroes have concluded no help may be expected from that authority, and that themselves may arate, hence, in taking the stand they have assumed and with their backs to the wall they look forward to, the future with much anxiety, and with the determination to do or die in meeting any situation that they have to face, in the face of the contrary to peace and dignity of law-abiding citizen. This attitude of mainly reliance on self-defense is indicative of the present temper of Negroes in the South. It has been forced upon them by the failure of the State and local authorities to enforce the law for their protection. The Houston Observer expresses its doubt if whether cutting the South's representation in Congress will get the Negro anywhere. It adds significantly, "We may be shortsighted, but we know the Southern and this seems more like a backward step." As to the investigation proposed in Representative Tinkham's bill, it says: "No Southern State would escape if such investigations were made complete. Even in Texas, disfurishment by intimidation would be found. Not to speak of some other things, foreign genius subject, such as peonage and the like." The *Atlanta Independent* in a recent issue related how a Negro preacher from Docturum, Gau, came to Alabay after having received a severe boiling at the hands of four white men. Their first pretext for the assault was that the preacher had advised the Negroes hot to work. When he denied that, his assailants told him he had set a bad example by going about "dressed up and wearing a white collar". They took his collar and cut it to pieces for souvenir purposes before he sent him a gravest trace like the inconclusive A white boy. A.

Express gave it the report something to think about of a national based on the possibility of achievement among the 42,000 Neaters in that city. Among other things, she said. Ordinarily we fail to take into consideration the fact that our group and in this city is greater than the total population of many prosperous cities, numerous large department stores, power plants and industries. We are prone to fall behind the few men among us who singlehanded and almost alone have won a financial place, for themselves and have their "fearful" comparatively. And feel that our group has done well. When actual accomplishment is compared even very leniently with contextual possibility for accomplishment of our group in Dallas it will be found that it has fallen far short. In business, however, the enterprises of various sorts but none a she commensurate with their share for growth. The Emperors nigged an effort in devel- op banks, department stores and a mass of amusement owned and controlled Negro capital. Dallas is not the community that needs a wakeup in these matters. A Tekto (Japan) paper is repaired saying that the American people are more dangerous to the world than the people of the yellow race. They a most question which debating they might keep on their programs intelle- ly. There is a great deal which be said on both sides. Says the Birmingham (Ala. Tim- Plain Dealers) "Not all the persecuted Christians are in Armenia. A goodly number are be found in Georgia, Texas and parts of the South." True enough. It may be that the new Congress may be persuaded to exten- a mandate for their protection. "HOW THEY WERE DEFEATED (From Mr. Gassett; Cleveland, Ohio Harry C. Smith; Editor II) he was a independent Republican Candidate in the election in the New ember 32, 1920. How They Were Deforeated Replying to our esteemed conferen-Editor, Fred, R.

Negro School Children of Birmingham Shame the Whites in Generous Givin- In the Thanksgiving offering taken in the Birmingham public schools the amazing disclosure is made that, proportionately, the Negroes contributed more generously than did the white children. This is instanced by the Negro figures from Central High School for whites who raised $899,26, which was a per cent contribution of 37 cents. The Industry High School for Negroes raised $329,000, which was a per cent of the whole city each Negro child in all Negro schools, including High Gate schools, while the same pre data apply to each white child in the white school. It is a matter for profound motivation for the white people of this county—not merely that they have been outdone in humanity and charity, the Negroes, but that out of them there are so graudgingly. It is known of all that the Negroes do not compare in aggregate wealth or aggregate earnings in a pacify with the whites, yet the children and race have outstretched healthier lives.

SPIRITUAL PROFESSOR OF JACK JONESSON We are not dismaying here the potential mortality of Jack Johnson; but even that must be much show the level of the cramp, while another of his prophylaxis or his would never have physical strength and moral courage which he undoubtedly has. The Powerful person must be well written, yet that a man of his age and in the preliminary should not be two strong men without hearing the ring. But that is not held in impatience as the spiritual progress of his man, that a man who has been harried and hated all over the world, and held fast to faint with its most exhaustive suspensions, and finally, handed to a national prison, because of an act of murder hanged on his part—that such a man should show such spirit, in the most remarkable thing in the history of his life. It is the spirit of his race. He always hung in the face of disaster or on the edge of a crush. He jailed and "gripped" every white man he ever boxed with, while the white man was as grim and as perilous as death. Can you imagine Dempsey or Willow or Carpenter in the same penitentiary under the power of another nose, and yet in the same spirit? You are certain that you cannot, and you are not certain that either of the men named in a fair fight "kick" Jack Johnson today. ILLUSIONS What illusions we live by! For example, whenever anybody says "shooter duck" or "seven corner alien", we all think of Nagrom and we grin—we see black faces and shiny eyes. Why? Because for generations, the newspapers the comic pages and the comic writer have associated face and colored people. But I paid a couple of visits to Journeys, Mission where American white people come over to drink and drink, an absolute equality with "greeters" and "niggers".

The cast presenting "Woman Against Woman" is a strong one and worthy of serious consideration. The play is in five acts, affording both quality and quantity. Throughout the performance the audience is moved by the splendid acting of the various members of the cast. Miss Cleo Desmond is back in the metropolis after a successful engagement in Chicago and is receiving a warm welcome from her many admirers. Her emotional work, particularly in the last two acts, is indeed praiseworthy. On The viciousness and un-Americanism of the Ku-Klux-Klan, which organization is beginning to manifest itself again in certain sections of the United States, will be vividly exposed at the Lafayette Theatre commencing Monday, December 27, when Oscar Micheaux's latest and greatest photo play, "Symbol of the Unconquered," will be presented during the opitre week. This picture, which is receiving its first exclusive showing in New York is in eight reels. It is regarded as most timely, in view of the present attempt to organize night riders in this country for the express purpose of holding back the advancement of the Negro. One of the thrilling scenes in this photo play is the rescue of a young colored man by a colored girl from the Ku-Klux-Klan On the screen will be seen such favorites as Iris Haff, Walker Thompson, Lawrence Cheault, Leigh Whipper, Jim Burris, E. B. Tatum and others. In connection with the presentation of "Symbol of the Unconquered" a special musical program will be rendered, which will be featured by the Exposition Four, a quartet making a most favorable reputation over the big time vaudeville circuit.

WILEY TEAM NOT SCORED ON DURING 1920 SEASON Marshall, Texas. - Wiley University football team has completed a most successful schedule. Beginning the season with a win over Arkansas, the Baptist College of Little Rock, Arkansas, Wiley defeated the Arkansas aggregation by the decisive score of 27-0. The next in order was an Armistice Day game with Sam Huston College, Austin, Texas, which was played in Houston, Texas, before a record-breaking crowd. Again the whistle blew announcing the end of the game the score was 27-0, favor Wiley. The next and perhaps most gruelling of the contests for the season was the Wiley-Prairie View match, staged in Wiley Park. Prairie View is the State College and always has a formidable team. The exhibition was enjoyed and favorably commented on by the many spectators who witnessed it. Prairie View played a fine game, but the Wiley kenned seemed determined not to be scored on, and the game ended 7-0 for Wiley. The final game of the season was a Thanksgiving Day game with shorter College, Little Rock, Arkansas. The Shorter team, of home proportions and swift foot game Wiley, a deal of 100. Neither of the team scored until the last quarter when after a safe-made by Wiley, Quarterback Wester, coming that Shorter's line was impossible, made two tonchdowns by the forward just route. The game ended Wiley's 10-shorter O. Wiley's now heats the team that has never been scored. the other hand, Mrs. Edna Lewis Thomas, who has become popular with the theatregoers of New York and elsewhere since her recent entry into the realm of the footlights, is seen at her best in the first part of the play. She not only faithfully acts the part of Rachel Westwood, a homebreaker, but looks the part of a well-dressed vamp. As Phil Tressidet, the father, J. Lawrence Criner does a bit of character work that stands out in a most commendable light. He continues to show marked improvement. But there is not a weak link in the east, for Lionel Monogas, H.

Lincoln University, Pa.—The past season was one of the most disastrous in the history of the Lincoln-University football team, and wisecases have not hesitated to attribute the team's failure to Cascord arising from clashes between Fritz Pollard, the great halfback, who was acting as coach, and Arthur D. Williams, the team manager. In addition to his duties as coach at Lincoln Pollard was also under contract, at $10,000 for the season, to play halfback on the professional team at Akron, Ohio. This necessitated his absence from Lincoln at times when his services were vitally needed. From statements received from authoritative sources it appears that the coach gave more attention to building up a strong backfield than to strengthening the line and to this policy the manager gave his strenuous disapproval. At a recent meeting of the Athletic Council, composed of five students, and three members of the faculty, Williams was unanimously, reelected as team manager and is taken to mean the positive retirement of Pollard's as coach. Paul Robeson, the former Rutgers star, was with the team on as Washington trip, and he is looked upon as the most likely successor to Pollard. Statement from Athletic Council. The Act is in receipt of a communication from Manager Williams, enclosing a statement written by Thomas B. Hargrave (or Hargrove), alleged to be member of the Athletic Council. After telling Williams, the manager, his statement had the following to say concerning the team and its work during the past season under Coach Pollard and Manager Williams: "Mr. Williams has held for some time that Lincoln needed a football system of its own, and a head coach who has had experience as a line player, has been able to receive special attention, and in modern football the line is more important, both for offensive and defensive play. This does not mean that a specialized back field is unnecessary or undesirable, but rather that, a good line is more important. For it is the line that must hold on offense and open up on defense. This is the reason that backfield availble little. Such men as Walter Camp and Glenn Warner substantiate this contention. Why Lincoln Lost "The writer knows that the management had made arrangements and had secured reservations for the team to leave Lincoln on Thursday afternoon before the Hampton game on the following Saturday. These arrangements were disappayed by the coach. So the team left on Friday, only to arrive in Hampton six hours before the game, six hours before the game. It remarkable that Lincoln played as well as she did. The team gave a splendid exhibition throughout, but they were up against the inevitable law of physical exhaustion. This defeat broke the spirit of what had been thus far invincible team. Together with this, the coach had been absent from the team over two-thirds of the time. "Especially was it demoralizing to the team for him to leave Hampton and Howard. Why Lincoln stood for such haplaardiness puzzled and still puzzles her many admirers. The solution to this puzzle is too long; then, too, it is past history. "A new spirit is arising already with the manager re-elected, and his hands united, and the friends of Lincoln, especially the leading members of the alumni, are behind him, as well as the students and faculty. Williams' Career. "Mr Williams is from Abingdon, Va. He graduated from incoln's college department in 1918 and has another year in the Seminary.

Declaring that he has hampered and interfered with by the Lincoln Athletic Council regulations 'whilst, vested the team manager with authority over the coach, Fritz Pollard has issued a statement defending himself against the criticisms which have been levelled at him because of the poor showing made by the 1920 team at Lincoln. He asserts that members of the factually assumed authority over him, affecting his language and conduct toward the team. Mr. Pollard declares that he paid $200 out of his personal funds for football shoes for the team, which had not been provided by the University authorities, and that he has not been repaid. Referring to te trip to Hampton, the statement charges that no sleeping cabins were provided for the team but that the men had to sleep on the desk, and that no rest accommodations were provided at Hampton. As to his professional playing, Mr. Pollard said the arrangement was thoroughly understood by the Lincoln authorities, and that it was mutually satisfactory. He pays a tribute to the members of the team, saying that "they are the gamest set of players on any gridiron," and that the Lincoln faculty, not Howard, beat the Lincoln team. Pollard's Statement. Mr. Pollard's statement is as follows: "The defeat of the great Lincoln football team at the hands of Howard's active store of 42-0 has raised a bowl of consideration and consternation among the followers of the Lincoln team and the graduates of the school." Much blame has been placed upon the coaching system. I being Lincoln's head coach, have, been the target of much attack. I wish to state here that I have no apologies to make for the showing made by Lincoln.

Working entirely with raw material, I was successful in defeating Howard and Hampton once and in tying them once. "Although I was appointed head coach, certain regulations of the Lincoln athletic constitution provided that the manager of the football team had authority over me in the matter of methods of training. The team hampered work. In addition to my coaching of the Lincoln faculty assumed authority over me and dictated my language and attitude toward the men on the field. "In spite of the fact that I constantly fought for every comfort that would safeguard the health and make for the comfort of the players before big games the authorities at Lincoln refused to heed my advice. Prior to the Hampton game the team was compelled to go to Hampton by boat, sleeping on the deck, and under portholes. No cabins were provided, nor were the given a place to sleep. The players were forced to game through lack of rest. This was proved when they advanced the ball five times to the six- yard line and were unable to make a touchdown. "An indication of the lack of interest shown by the authorities at Lincoln may be seen in the fact that no football shoes were provided for the men. I myself bought and paid $200 out of my pocket for football shoes for my team. This money has never been repaid "I am a married man with children, and I got assigned the Lincoln authorities that I would be unable to support my family on the salary paid me for coaching Lincoln. They were satisfied to have me divide my time with professional teams. The men on the team were junior in their being made by faculty members. Several times when my orders were overridden by the authorities the men refused to play. It was I who persuaded them to remain in the game. When they learned that I was not to be present at the Howard game, partly on account of interference from above. Their shirt was broken. They were disorganized. Will say the Lincoln hall team, not Howard. They are the嘉量 set of players on any gridiron. With proper treatment they can beat any team going." Vandals Win from N Y. Quintet. Atlantic City, M.

For instance, one railroad handles passenger traffic between Chicago and Chicago is the North Railroad. This roadway is a narrow way and these trains are arranged going and coming. There are two other railroads and two interstate roads and Chicago, carrying thousands of people who work or are employed in business in Gary, but when one of a lack of trains is impelled to Chicago and other many places, to sleep. Gary is being fully 800 houses in her building pro- gram. When this city was laid out, the city planned well, and took advantage of all of modern city building knowledge. It was first place, the city has been built on a large scale. It is here laid out for a city of 230,000; street walls, water, gas, and other buildings of it, have already been provided to take care of the population. The city area is about 400 square miles, and in it confines, parks and businesses have been provided for a very few easily. Breathing spaces, every few blocks, dot the city; they provide for the children and all of course, an article on Gary that did not mention her schools is incomplete. Gary school system is the pride of the city. I shall not, in this article, skew the schools, except to say that the school system here is a unique and involve, a systematic support entitlement as well as a well-trained nurse. Several dollar-dollars have been spent on the school system and other millions are spent annually. In a real way I have tried to give you an idea of Gary. Gary's Colored Children. Now as to our group. Prior to 1920, we were not here in great numbers. Since that time we have come here to consider considerable degree, but we have gone away at some period as rapidly as 1908, estimated the colored population in 1800, the 1920 government population gave us a little above Smith. We think that this cannot be right, but we have over 1000 Employees in many mills and that include Cary, her lot of course some of these live in Cary and other nearby places. It is safe to say that more than two thousand colored people have come to Cary since the census was taken, and having any estimate on the crowded cemetery, private houses, theaters I would estimate the colored population in 1900 and not feel that I had over stated There are several things of prime importance that must be said. First, we have some business enterprise. We have ten grocery stores; one drug store, operated by a woman, Dr. Beverly Curtis; two undertaking estates; one rural real estate estate; the second building the many hospitals and a few bureaus; three dentists, a juniper of the department prosecuting attorney, right uniformed policemen, trust officers. And finally and most importantly of all, we have the first authorized state bank that was made the first fully transported bank in the Manila and Davao Islands. At 185 Broadway, this city, we have the Central State Bank of Gary, headquarters capitalized at $5,000, million. It is capital and surplus fully paid in. This bank was organized in 1905 and not without its greatest success. It operated out of a similar kind, the total amount of the bank at this writing are $50,000. The Negro's Opportunity. With the help of myself, as per instruction, I came here in July, 1919, to make an address on behalf of Dr. H. B. Body of East St. Louis, IA. Here, here, here, I saw an opinion on the judgment of the judge that there on this spot is in area in America to test our work. We are getting off in the race of business competition just a little behind our groups, but not so far because we can make a splash, according to the already laid down. In other words there are large numbers of our group assembled, the firm was developed fully before this race. Here in this city development is to co-ordinate with the progress of the city, to build up the progress of the city, to fail and deserve so. The most essential thing that matters is a fiscal agent fully aware of the progress forward the financial progress of our group. We have been working in our group since we began in our bank. If we can get together the agency of this bank to lend dollars in the next 24 months we used to finance our people's financial endeavors, according to the agency, then I feel certain that the course of 10 years, will offer industrial and commercial opportunities. And if it is permissable in an industry this kind, I desire to say, that we can be in place where one can do, and by making a simple banking account in the bank above named, we have learned to finance our business in their banks. Will it be the question. $300,000 Realty Concern. Personally I heard a group of colored people have bought out a large property in paving $300,000 there. We are engaged in the Lot Sale business, selling loss on the will plan and building houses for us as rapidly as we can have them. The name of our concern is the National Realty and Investment Company of Indiana.

There are about 1,700 colored churches in the United States. These call for at least 1,500 new ministers every year. Last year not over 200 colored men with theological training regurgated the ministry. This year, the University is able to keep in touch with, recommended courses for, and encourage those already in the ministry, and to materially aid those who are planning to come to the School of Religion but have not yet the necessary education. The University is showing the great need of the Department and told of the burden upon his heart. These addresses were followed by exercises and answers.

We extend our duties thereby, the responsibilities read, to the white minister who lives, through someone or in other ways, voiced their disapproval of the organization; to determine resolution of problems; to determine resolution of prosecutions or apprehension of the crime and activities of the organization; to the public press for its high view and moral stand in retaliation; to parish authorities so he may be used to bring disorder between the white and accused men. "And, further, we name our laws that we have been deeply impressed by the implemency and the power of the people who govern us, the mankind of Christian Israel, in her government, and just treatment of all without regard to order or order. We therefore, please our best choice, in these prejudices, desire to the effect of our power and the power of our people, to be willingly able to work with all who believe in orderly government, by and under the control and direction of the properly associated authorities, to make our own spirit of Him who is our God. Whenever a person of His will should do to you, do so even so to them,—the garden spot of the universe." Mr. Theobald's Letter. Jacob Theodore, formerly principal of P. S. 89, and for a number of years actively associated with work among the colored and white people in Harlem, has written the following strong letter in reply to published articles in *Revue de Athènes*. Can alleged slain the Ku Klux Klan to the effect that branches of that party would be organized in New York if it was necessary. The letter is an *fellowship*: "Presumptions importance and gross stupidity mark the segregation of the *Imperial Wizard* to the effect that should an emergency aristic in New York demand the presence of the Ku Klux Klan—the Ku Klux Klan would be those on the job. "However much we may have hindered a regard to other matters, we have been singularly happy in the administration of civic affairs in the colored action of our city. While other large cities, including the National Capital itself, have had their multitude of the races, New York City has spared those whose specialities of terrorism and it is by no means an encyclopedia." The Michigan state legislature may be surprised to learn that the colorado legislature permitted a new law to be greater than the adult population of both races in the "Whites" began own of Iowa. In November 1980, Nigrope represented politically by members of their own race in the State Assembly and in the local Board of Aldermen. Those elect representatives have performed the duties of their respective duties with ability with self-presentation comparable to that of their fellow state officers. In office, of responsible colored physician, clergyman, lawyers and business men, have been for years setting high standards for the young 60's their race to follow. The word "opportunity" has meant much more so. Students in our city than it has assimilated, and the New York country, and the New York age, have measured up in ever higher degree as his opportunities and responsibilities have increased. "There has been no serious race outbreak in our city because conflict has not been provoked by the intelligent whites on the one hand and it has not been proved leaders on the other. The community sense has been for law and order as opposed to lawlessness and disorder. There is no denying that the problem has been made more difficult by the unusual increase during recent years of immigration from other countries in the situation of tomorrow will materially add to the difficulties. The latter problem will be by no means perilar to the college workers, though they occupy exposed front line treches and get the sniffers first." But it must be obvious that, should someone come more critical, there will not be less of a glutton understanding and good will that have proved effective in the past, will be imperative. The gentleman from Atlanta proposes the spectacle of the Night Riders as a means to meet a possible emergency in New York. The intelligent leadership, colored and white, pepled the pelting, which comes daily in the news from the South. Why conjecture up the "emergency", which once given the heroic Ku Klux Klan treatment proposed, would bid fair to become as permanent as it has become south of Miami and Dixon's time? If occasion should arise to send a hurry call to the specialist, the appeal bad better be made to the intelligence within our own community than to the stupidity without."
