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.

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.

"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.

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.

THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN-APPEAL
HIS MAMMY SPEAKS
And was it eons past, or was it years or was it yesterday
I bade him fond farewell? co 2
To me it seems a vast eternity;
The long suspense, the Ot uncertainty—
The few brief words that filtered through to me,
Saying that all was well. é
And in my quiet hours, and at my work, and thru each
anxious day,
1 prayed most constantly.
Bringing my heart aches to the throne of God;
‘Tho in my fancy, stark upon the sod
Of France, I saw him dead, and felt God’s chastening rod.
My puny, faltering faith seemed lost to me,
The fig, of truce, Che cbse. et. Binaeres. as the Armis-
I cried with very joy.
And from the mud of France, the ae
From trench and stench and whine of shell,
From agonizing death—a living hell,
Back to my arms he came. My boy!
Five P erig have passed, Old Glory proudly waves o’er quiet
How sweet is peace.
The sleepless nights, the fearful lithargy—
The wakeful days, the silent agony,
That took their toll and sapped the life of me—
How sweet is peace.
But you, my country, you have broken faith with me and
mine.
(We prate of freedom’s sod)
Give him the liberty he saved to other land,
The brotherhood you promised when began
The conflict. Oh! Make Him a Man.
This is my prayer to you—and to my God.

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
“gob-story” of the Southern Demo-
cratic planters and manufacturers,
who told the gathering that the South
needs the colored workers who mi-
grated 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, Indi-
ana, Michigan and Tilinois, where
their votes will help to swell Repub-
