50,000 VOTE IN TUESDAY PRIMARIES BILL INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS IS SAID TO OPPOSE EMPLOYMENT OF RACE LABOR BY RAILROAD OF U.S. BILL INTRODUCED IN CONGRESS IS SAID TO OPPOSE EMPLOYMENT OF RACE LABOR BY RAILROAD OF U.S. Chairman of United States Railroad Labor Board Makes Charge That Howell Bill, If Passed, Will Legalize Discrimination of A. F. of L. The Howell bill in Congress for revision of the machinery for handling railroad labor disputes was attacked as an attempt to legalize racial discrimination, in an official opinion issued by Chairman Ben W. Hooper of the United States Railroad Labor Board. That Chairman Hooper had misconstrued the bill was the comment of A. O. Wharton, labor member of the board, whose dissent from a decision of the board had occasioned Chairman Hooper's attack. Mr. Wharton had criticized the decision on the alleged ground that it failed to protect colored labor against discrimination. Mr. Wharton said the effect of the Howell bill would be the exact opinion of that foreshadowed by Mr. Hooper.

Wharton, labor mem- from a decision of the board had occ tack. Mr. Wharton had criticized ground that it failed to protect col- tion. Mr. Wharton said the effect exact opposite of that foreshadowed Against Employes. Chairman Hooper, in declaring that the decision of the majority signified no lack on its part of regard for the equal rights of all races, took occasion to charge that a bill, which he said was favored by the sixteen standard railroad labor organizations, proposed to "legalize an iron-clad act of exclusion against colored railway employees," which "cannot constitutionally be indulged in." Mr. Hooper afterward admitted that he referred to the Howell bill. Mr. Wharton said that the bill had no bearing on the merits of the case, and denied that its intent was, or that its effect would be, as Chairman Hooper represented. Wharton says: "There is no desire to remove any persons from the application of the law or from the benefits accruing from it, on account of class, creed or nationality," asserted Mr. Wharton. "On the contrary, the provisions of the proposed law would guarantee to men of all races, creeds and classes the benefits accruing from the collective efforts of the majority." Chairman Hooper had said that the standard organizations excluded colored employees from membership, and that the proposed bill "provides that the adjustment boards which it sets up shall contain representation from the standard organizations alone." Mr. Wharton said that the theory of the Howell bill was "the same principle upon which this government was founded, that of majority rule." ACTIVITIES OF URBAN LEAGUE Several representative men met at the Hotel Howell last Friday morning at the request of E. A. Carter, secretary of the Urban League, a city-wide big brother organization in St. Paul. Those present were enthusiastic about the possibilities of such an organization and decided to launch the movement in the near future. Mr. Carter outlined the meaning and scope of the Big Brother movement during the dinner which was served by the hotel management. The next meeting will be announced in the press. National Negro Health Week will be fittingly observed in St. Paul March 30 to April 5 under the auspices of the Urban League, co-operating with other agencies and with several of the women's clubs.

BULLETIN-APPEAL "VAMPIRE" CAR KILLS BOY AS HE PLAYS IN STREET "VAMPIRE" CAR KILLS BOY AS HE PLAYS IN STREET Seventh avenue and Lyndale avenue north was the scene of another one of the innumerable tragedies resulting from careless and reckless driving. Little Artie James Green, 700 Sixth avenue north, was run down by J. B. German, 1523 Newton avenue, while riding his bicycle. The child, whose age is 12 years, was dragged at least 30 feet. Spectators at the time of the accident claimed that German attempted to escape. Artie was carried to the General hospital, where he died five minutes after being taken there. It was thought at first that the child was Jewish. The spectators and witnesses who were composed mostly of whites were one in stating that the accident was the fault of the driver of the truck, until they learned that the child was colored, then it was different. Immediately they "hedged" in an effort to save the face of German, the driver, who happened to be a Jew. German was arrested but later released after three of his race had sworn that the dead boy was at fault. Mrs. Leoda Reese, the boy's aunt, who had reared him from a small tot, was grief-streken. Funeral services were held Saturday at W. Squire Neal chapel. The Junior Elks, of whom Artie was a member, conducted the services. The deceased was also a member of the Wayman Mission church and Sunday school. Rev. H. C. Claybrook, the pastor, preached the sermon. He is survived by his mother, Mrs. Bessie Lane of Superior, Wis., his brother, Milton Green, sister, Geraldine Green, and Mrs. Leoda Reese, his aunt, of Minneapolis. As an aftermath of this sad affair Mrs. Reese has retained Attorney Glenner Fowler to obtain some sort of justifiable settlement. Miss Beneree Petticord arrived in the city this week from Omaha, Neb., where she has been visiting friends for the past month. BATTLING SIKI REPORTED DYING IN HAVANA Havana, Cuba — Battling Sikl, with his wonderful vitality, practically wasted by swift living since he became enamored by the glamor and acclaim of the crowd after he knocked Georges Carpentier out, is now fighting his hardest battle, under great handicap, for his life. Sikl's cold has developed into plural-pneumonia. He is at a private hospital sustained by the same strength that enabled him to enter the ring and fight long bouts after he had spent numerous nights regularly in hilarious living at the bars in Paris. He was delirious almost all day Thursday and had extremely high temperature. According to leading physicians he has small chance of recovery. His condition remains unchanged. THE NORTHWESTERN ST.

Music lovers enjoyed this and by request Mrs. Curry sang the spiritual number, "I Want to Be a Christian," with audience singing the chorus. Mrs. Eva Walker's recitation of Holy City was excellent. The St. James' orchestra, under the management of Mr. Underwood, furnished music. Mr. Governor Cook, a promising young violinist, plays like a master.

MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY RE-ELECTION OF MAYOR NELSON IS PREDICTED BY AUTHORITIES AFTER COUNT OF ALL THE PRIMARY VOTES "Larry Ho" Thought to Be Formidable for Third Place Against Peter—Wenzel and Clancy Assured of Re-election by Supporters of Labor. The showing made by George L. Siegel, labor candidate for mayor, at Tuesday's primary election practically insures re-election of Mayor Arthur E. Nelson. Although Mr. Siegel showed strength, the results were not up to expectations. The vote on other candidates indicates that all those now holding office will be re-elected with the exception of Commissioner William J. Peter, who may be replaced by Larry C. Hodgson, former mayor and now candidate for councilman. Mr. Hodgson finished third in the councilmanic contest, the leaders being Commissioners H. C. Wenzel, who headed the ticket, and J. M. Clancy, candidates for re-election on the labor ticket. Mr. Siegel was looked upon as certain to win in the primary over Mayor Nelson by at least 5,000 votes. But much of the support heralded for him was not forthcoming. He failed to poll in any part of the city the vote expected of him. His lead on the primary vote was only 1,743. MAH JONGG TEA GIVEN WOMEN AT HOTEL HOWELL The spacious parlor of the Hotel Howell assumed an Oriental atmosphere Saturday afternoon when Mrs. W. T. Francis was a charming hostess at a Mah Jongg Tea, complimentary to the members of The Everywoman Progressive Council. Mrs. Francis wore on this occasion a handsome gown of sapphire, tulle over satin, trimmed in sequins. Assisting here were the heads of the different departments and members. The guest instructors were Mrs. J. H. Redd, in dainty Mah Jongg costume, and Mrs. Gale Hilyer of Minneapolis, who are adepts in the game. The special guests of the club were Mrs. Owen Howell, Mrs. Charles Sumner Smith and Miss L. O. Smith of Minneapolis. Interspersed with the playing of Mah Jongg, a delightful musical program was rendered by Mesdames E. O. James, B. C. Archer and Dudley Smith, who played Dett's "In the Bottoms" Suite. Two dramatic selections from Rudyard Kipling were given by Miss L. O. Smith. Each number was highly enjoyed. Chinese Air Services Seated at teakwood tables, inlaid with pearl, the exquisitely gowned ladies were initiated into the Mystic game of Mah Jongg. Candalabra lights of roseate hue, gorgeous Chinese lanterns suspended over the archway and spring blossoms reposing in Chinese vases featured the decorations for this unique affair. Tall yellow candles in silver candlesticks, a silver tea service and yellow tulips graced the center of the attractive tea table from which refreshments pertaining to those of the Orient were served. At the close of the afternoon the guests departed, thanking their hostess for the ideal manner in which they were entertained. Mrs. Victory Fields, 558 Wabasha street, is seriously ill at her home. She is a member of Biddle Post G. A. R. SHIPSTEAD MOVE SEEN AS BID FOR COLORED VOTES Washington—A bid for third party votes among Negroes is seen in the sudden change of attitude on the part of Sen. Shipstead, Minnesota, on the comptroller of customs question. Walter Cohen, leader of New Orleans, was appointed to this post. Sen. Shipstead voted against confirming the appointment when it was made. Now he has moved to reconsider the vote, and is for confirmation. Negro leaders consider that Sen. Shipstead has changed his mind in order to line up colored votes for Sen. La Follette if he becomes the third party presidential candidate. Chinese Air Pervades.

THE PRIMARIES Now that the curtain has rung down on the final act of the primaries, we hope our voters have done their part in supporting the various candidates. We hope that every vote cast was for the best interest of this city. Realizing the necessity of having good men at the head of our city government, it should be obvious that each voter use the utmost precaution in discovering the proper candidates. When the interest of our citizens is dependent upon the correct administration of municipal officials it should be the purpose of every voter to contribute to the support of such men that will be an asset to the welfare of their community. The Bulletin-Appeal sought to indorse only men whose ability would be used for public and not personal gain. In our attempt to inform the voters as to the results of our survey we met with uncanny criticism from those who sought to feather their nest at the expense of the voters. Such may be expected from a certain caliber of men who assume the role of party bosses. Our purpose was lacking selfishness and for the good of those we seek to serve. Should a newspaper fail to function in a public spirited capacity it loses its identity as an institution maintained for the benefit of those served. We did not lose sight of our duty even in the face of financial offers we believed that certain elements were in the market for the purchase of votes. We will not "sell out" as some of our accusers have done. Their chief interest was in the small fee collected for themselves and not for racial benefit. The type of men we give our aid must measure up to requirements. They must be willing to give justice to all indiscriminately. Race, color or creed cannot be a basis on which decisions are made. The candidate who cannot qualify will always find opposition from the Bulletin-Appeal. We support men and measures. We will never be found in a position where the elected candidate may hurl back the defiance, "I bought your vote so there is nothing I can do for you." There is much to be considered when the facts are known and for this reason we seek to know whereof we speak. There must be a concerted action on the part of our voters to intelligently use their ballot. The final election in May will prove the desire of the citizens. No matter how a vote is cast, the voter should be well informed concerning the candidate so that there can be no mistake in supporting or opposing what ever man he may choose. MILL CITY WOMEN CALL MEETING TO AID CIVIC STUDY Fifty-five Organizations Are Urged to Attend Special In response to an increasing consciousness of the need for a co-operative city-wide organization among colored women for civic betterment, realizing that colored women must come together on terms of democratic equality for mutual understanding in regard to all things of common interest to them as members of a local community. The meeting to be held in the Mayor's reception room, court house, is called for the purpose of stimulating Minneapolis women to study their own neighborhood and community problems, and devise their own methods of improving them. The group will study their own vital needs, namely, health and sanitation, physical population, physical development, public recreation, patriotic development, preparation for and exercise of the franchise law and order. Survey Made. A recent survey shows 55 organizations among women of Minneapolis which include the churches, social, plantthropic, lodges and educational interest. Every woman, club and otherwise is being urged to come and discuss our own civic problems and help map out a program to help better them. The time has come, with the increase of colored people. Minneapolis must bestir herself for the good of the community, especially the colored population. The women must show a greater interest in the whole civic problems affecting the group at this time. Join hands with the few who are attempting to pull the load. The meeting will be held Monday, March --- Page 2 Session. Bulletin-Appeal Publishing Co. St. Paul, Minnesota Arfield 2075.

The meeting is called by Mrs. Jos. D. Bryan, second vice-president of Minnesota Federation of Colored Women's clubs. Mrs. Jos. D. Bryan, social worker, who is making a survey of the colored people in North Minneapolis, has found, although the survey is not completed, that among other things, suitable recreation and a place to recreate are some of the outstanding needs. And as a result, Franklin Jr. high school has been secured for classes in swimming and gymnasium. The Women's Co-operative Alliance is a co-operating agency in promoting the classes. Swimming Classes. Miss Aldeane Coon, recreational secretary of the alliance, who has had five years' teaching in physical education, also has had wide experience in health and recreation work, and is in charge of the physical recreational work at the Northeast Neighborhood House at present is organizing physical recreational classes at Pillsbury settlement. Will be in charge of the girls' swimming and gymnasium classes. Miss Coons' services are donate by the alliance, for which the group should feel grateful. Mrs. Bryan has registered 59 young women for these classes. Miss Marvel Jackson, who is a student in physical education at the University of Minnesota, answered the first call for volunteers. Miss Jackson will assist Miss Coon in the instruction of class work. Miss Flora Stevens of Burlington, Iowa, is a traveling representative for an Eastern manufacturer of ladies' lingerie garments. In Memphis there are 148 colored brakemen, 186 locomotive firemen, 244 switchmen and flagmen, 14 foremen, 7 inspectors and 2' telegraph operators employed by the steam railroads. There are 2,113 colored children between 10 and 17 years of age working in coal mines. THE RE:MEDY (The Lincoln News Service) "Trade follows the flag, you know, and all this talk about the trouble we are having in building up our South American export trade is, in my opinion, simply a matter of credit extension, packing and delivery." This is what an elderly gentleman of prosperous mien, typical of "Big Business," was saying to a keen-cut "go-get-it" type of man, as I entered the smoker for a final puff before retiring. "That's just where you and the rest of our business men are all wrong. Trade does not follow the flag down there, and the sooner our exporters get wise to that the sooner they'll increase their sales in Mexico, Central and South America, Cuba, Haiti, San Domingo, Porto Rico, Virgin Islands and the Philippine Islands," replied the "go-gatter" with a deal of emphasis. "I don't quite get you. Our goods are superior and our prices are right. What do you mean?" asked "Big Business." "Exactly what I said," replied the other, and I think you'll agree with me when I relate a recent experience that was an eye-opener to me. "I represent," he said, "one of the largest manufacturers of heavy mining and milling machinery in this country. As a mechanical engineer and salesman I have visited many parts of the world on business for the company, and I rather pride myself on knowing as much about the psychology of salesmanship as I do about the mechanics of intricate machinery. So, when the president of my company told me to go over some specifications and be prepared to sail for Brazil within eight days, to land a big sales contract with a Brazilian firm, I felt equal to tackling anything. He gave me a pretty good expense fund and told me not to be afraid to buy a few cigars and dinners in order to land the contract, which, he was sure, would not be difficult on account of my not having to compete with "made-in-Germany" salesmen. Arriving at my destination, I spent a couple of days sight-seeing and incidentally giving out several interviews to the daily papers concerning the strong bond of friendship that exists between the peoples of the Western Hemisphere, I arranged an appointment with the president of the big mining and milling corporation, whose business we were after, and when I called and was being ushered into his private office I noticed, in the general office, forty or fifty white and colored clerks. This did not strike me with any particular force, because I had observed a general mixing on the streets, in the hotels and other public places; but I was surprised and almost shocked when the private office door opened and I saw a colored man of fine appearance siting at a mahogany desk dictating in Portuguese to a handsome and neatly attired colored female. Although I had heard something about the racial situation in Brazil, I was for a moment nonplussed when it occurred to me that here was a Negro whose final word stood between me and a $2,500,000 contract." Quiet reigned in the smoker for a moment and then the "Big Business" man asked: "But where did color or racial identity enter into the awarding of a contract as long as the company was in the market for goods that you had to sell." "That's just the point," replied the salesman. "After dismissing his stenographer, the president relaxed, handed me a perfecto, lighted one himself, and, when, after a few preliminaries, I asked him about the contract, he politely but firmly informed me that it would be useless for me to bid because under no circumstances would an American firm receive the contract. He admitted that possibly he was wrong; but when he told his story to me at the club that evening, where I met him as his guest, I could understand just why he felt as he did. It appears that several years ago he and his wife, accompanied by her maid, were on a pleasure and sight-seeing trip around the world. When they reached the United States they were "Jim Crowed" everywhere they went in the South, and in Washington after the taxi driver tried to get accommodations for them in all the large hotels where they were refused, he took them to a small colored hotel, where their 38 pieces of baggage greatly interfered with the hotel's accommodations. He stated that his party was even humiliated in traveling to the home of George Washington and that in other ways they were embarrassed more than at any time in their lives. Remaining in Washington only three days, and without visiting the Middle West, they returned to New York and took the first steamer for Europe. The experience," continued the salesman, "of this colored South American millionaire and the similar experiences of others, combined with the exhibitions of racial prejudices displayed by the commercial repres THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN-APPEAL Grand Musical Festival PEOPLE'S CHURCH CHESTNUT ST.

All of this was an astounding revelation to me, and knocked into smithereens my idea just expressed by you that 'Trade follows the flag.' That's all bunk. This alarming situation must be remedied or we shall lose the bulk of our trade with Brazil." "But how can we remedy it?" asked the "Big Business" man. Harriet Tubman Civic League on Education Tour About one hundred and fifty of club women of the Twin Cities cepted the invitation of the Harriet Tubman Civic League to join the "My solution of the problem," replied the salesman, "would be to train colored graduates from our technical schools for salesmanship, and let them cover Central America, Haiti, San Domingo, Porto Rico, Virgin Islands, Brazil and other South American countries."

Mrs. Robert Anderson won second, which was a smaller basket of groceries. The consolation, ten bars of soap, went to Mr. Al. Shavers.

Monday, March 3. Young girls of the Telephone Co. acted as guides. The women were divided into groups of twelve, a member of the Harriet Tubman League acting as hostess to each group. The entire building was inspected from the roof to the wonderful tunnel forty feet below the sidewalk. A hot luncheon was served to the visitors in the company's dining room. Afterwards the women retired to the reception room and Mrs. Aamodt, social entertainer of the Telephone Company, was introduced to the club women by Mrs. George Gooden, president of the Harriet Tubman Civic League. Mrs. Aamodt spoke on telephone etiquette and was enthusiastically received. The women were delighted with the trip and voted henceforth to have more consideration for the telephone operators.

Hall Attorney Walter Robinson of Hopkinsville, Ky., was unanimously elected secretary of the Christian County Republican Executive Committee. Philadelphia—The members of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, who recently met in this city, listened to but did not fall for the "sob-story" of the Southern Democratic planters and manufacturers, who told the gathering that the South needs the colored workers who migrated North to keep the world from facing a shortage of cotton in 1924. Of course the South needs them, but not to pick cotton, and hopes for their return before the national election, especially those who migrated to such states as New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan and Illinois, where their votes will help to swell Republican majorities.
