EDITOR IS THREATENED AGAIN VOL.I, NO.36 BUSINESS LEAGUE HEAD ISSUES CALL FOR NEW MEMBERS BUSINESS LEAGUE HEAD ISSUES CALL FOR NEW MEMBERS Sends Invitations to all Persons In Business to Become Members of League. IMPORTANT MEETING SET FOR THURSDAY NIGHT Organization due to Go Into Final Shape—Exposition To Be Discussed. The St. Paul branch of the National Negro Business has the stage all set to reorganization work at a meeting of the League Thursday night at Little Pilgrim on the Hill called 8:30 p.m. The Committee at work forming by-laws, rules, etc., held a meeting Wednesday night and report that the recommendations to be made if accepted, will put the League to work at once. Among other things considered, the committee sanctioned the proposed plan of staging an indoor exposition here for the benefit of Negro Business. Issues Invitation O. Howell, president of the League has instructed Sec. G. D. Howard to see to it that every Negro in business in St. Paul is sent a letter inviting his membership. It is doubtful if all will become members but a sufficient number is expected to join to make the presence of the business League felt. Members of the old organization are urged to attend. The following is a copy of the letter, Sec. Howard has mailed to various Business men and women. Dear Sir:— Don't you think you could increase better or at least lend something to Negro business in St. Paul if you became a member of the local branch of the National Negro Business League? It is very true that there is no large number of us in the same line of business while at the same time it means little or nothing for each business organization or group of the same kind of business to stand alone. An organization composed of all persons in business in this community would have a telling effect to say the least of the benefits that could be derived from the association. We are inviting you as a Negro business man—regardless of the nature of your clientele—to become a partner in an organization whose purpose is to promote a partner in an organization whose purpose is to promote Negro business. In this city and every other city, the white man has his commercial club for the promotion and protection of his business while the black man in a measure depends upon the church or the lodge hall to serve to that end. We seek to remedy this situation. If you are interested in your business or the advancement of Negro business; if you believe there in work for a business organization here; if you believe in co-operation on the part of Negro business and professional men inorder to demand the proper recognition of achievements in the economic field; if you believe by intelligent association and co-operation of other persons in business like yourself that you could profit something, we invite you to meet us next Thursday evening the 28th at Little-Pilgrim on the Hill at 8 p.m. and join with us in our effort to link all Negroes in business in this community into an up-and-doing business organization. Mr. Sylvester Hill of Buffalo, N. Y., is in the city after a 30 day tour of the west having stopped at Tacoma, Portland and other points. He is domiciled at Mrs. Olsham's residence, Cedar Ave. THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN University of California Puts Ban On the Latest "Toreador" Trouser New York, Sept. 22 (Special)—A new style in men's trousers is jumping across the country from the west. The trousers are called "toreador" and have all kinds of fancy fixings. They are belled at the bottom, with slits laced together. For decorative purposes there are bells, little buttons and fancy braids. Since the fad started among high school and college boys near the movie colony, in Los Angeles, a tailor here claims to have made 1,000 pairs. The toreador trousers have been banned by the Southern branch of the University of California, where the freshmen intended to start the fad, and also wear sideburns, in imitation of the movie hero whose costumes initiated the fashion. Tribune's Story of "Near Riot" Takes Different Color Teachers Must Stop Dancing Is Edict Christian Endeavor League Also Would Put Ban on Teachers Playing Cards. Augusta, Ga., Sept. 22—The Allen Christian Endeavor League and Sunday School Convention of the A. M. E. Church in convention here last week, went on record as opposed to teachers in Sunday Schools and public day schools dancing and playing cards. The resolution is as follows: To the bishop, chairman and members Allen Christian Endeavor League and Sunday School Convention: Whereas, very much has been, and is now being concerning dancing and social card playing. The country is interested in the position our church will take in this state on this question; therefore: Be it the sense of this convention, That we, as negro preachers, teachers and Christian workers of the A. M. E. Church, are unalterably opposed to our Sunday school and public school teachers any longer teaching our children, who frequent the dance halls or cause dancing places to be set aside and advising our children to dance, also cards playing and such like chance games, as we believe the things to be detrimental to the home and community life of our people; That persons who conduct and sing in our church, Sunday school and league choirs be governed by the same rules as the teachers; That our leaders and representatives in church, Sunday school and league stand four-square against these social evils. Mr. F. D. McCracken has been on the sick list for the past week. ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDA Y, SEPTEMBER 23, 1922. Two White Ruffians Fined $100 for Causing Trouble—Colored Boy Released. Chicago, Ill., Sept 22.—The Chicago Tribune quietly ate dirt again when on an inside page it took back a glaring incitement to race riot, which it has displayed with a five column line on page one the day before. Tuesday, September 5, the following paragraph was given principal position on page one of the Tribune: "With guns and clubs more than a hundred Lincoln park policemen yesterday afternoon charged a mob of thousands to bring a colored prisoner safely to a cell after he had insulted a white girl and fought desperately with a policeman when arrested." Wednesday, September 6, the following was burled under an unrelated headline on page 21 or the Tribune: "The near riot in Lincoln park Monday afternoon, Sept. 11, resulted in fines of $100 each for John and David Benjamin, brothers and white, and dismissal of charges of disorderly conduct against Alec Green, colored, principals in the fight which started the battle." UNITY CLUB OPENS ITS SEASON FRIDAY The Unity Club, one of the most popular dancing clubs in the Twin Cities, will begin its dancing schedule next Friday evening at Union Hall instead of Thursday evening as it was announced last week. The club is composed of the younger set and has a strong following of young people in the Twin Cities. Its Friday evening dancing classes last year proved very popular and many are awaiting the opening of the classes this year. Meetings will be held every other Friday evening. A dancing instructor is being sought by a member of the club who is now in Chicago. NO SEPARATE PARKS IN THIS CITY, SAYS SAINT LOUIS MAYOR Wall St. Sharks May Kill The Liberian Loan Move to Estalish Jim-Crow Parks in St. Louis Meets Stiff Opposition—Mayor Is Frank. SEPARATE PARKS ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL Says There is No Color Question With Him; Parks are Made For All People. St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 22—There is no contemplated action on the part of the city administration at building a park for colored people as has been agitated by the so-called O'Fallon Park Protection Association according to a statement of Mayor Kiel a few days ago. When asked his attitude on the park question by a representative of the Argus, the mayor said: "There is no color question to it so far as I am concerned." The parks are made for all the people. "Since this agitation I have given the matter of districting some consideration, but have found it not feasible. The Park Department has the right to regulate the use of the parks and if it found advisable to close a certain park for a given period to give the grass and shrubbery a chance to grow and to beautify it, that may be done, but "take it from me" if such steps are taken there will be no discrimination. If one goes, all goes. "The park question needs some study which I shall give it before next season. But whatever plans that are worked out it will be equal and just to all. "It is just as unconstitutional to segregate the colored people in the parks as was the residential segregation ordinance, which the courts have decided. Speaking of the complaints, the mayor said that he could not keep the people from complaining. "Like everything else," he said, "some say one thing, and some say another. So the only promise I can make, is to look into the matter." St. Louis, Mo., Gets Baptist Convention People of Los Angeles Very Indignant Because of Change Date Dec. 6. Los Angeles, Cal., Sept 23—The National Baptist Convention meeting scheduled for Los Angeles has apparently been changed to St. Louis. A telegram, reported in the hands of the Rev. R. N. Holt, Los Angeles committee chairman, gives notice of the change from Los Angeles to a St. Louis meeting on December 6, 1922. A cry of indignation has already gone up over the high-handed action of the executive committee and messages are on the wires demanding explanation. The end is not yet say members of the local committee who have been on the firing line to bring the great national meeting to the Pacific coast. A. R. RAGLAND OPENS COZY NEW RESTAURANT A. R. Ragland, well known St. Paul business man, has taken over the business formerly known as the Pullman Cage, 291 Robert St., which is now operated under the name of Ragland Chicken Shack. Mr. Ragland has made several changes in the place. Since opening a few days ago, he reports that business is very good and that Mrs. May Johnson, cook, is making warm friends due to the good meals served. TRY IT!

Senator Borah Asserts a Large Part of Money Would go to Wall St. Speculators. CLAIMS BANKERS WOULD GET OVER $1,650,000 Also Objects to Big Salaries to be Paid American Officials Out of Loan. Washington, D. C., Sept 22—The administration bill for a $5,000,000 loan to Liberia encountered strong opposition in the senate Monday, making prospects of passage some- what doubtful. The measure was vigorously assailed by Senator Borah (Idaho). Republican, who asserted that a large part of the loan would go into the pockets of New York bankers and speculators who had bought up obligations of the Liberian government for as little as 10 cents on the dollar. These obligations would go to par, he declared, as soon as the American government advanced the $5,000,000. Approximately $1,650,000 of the money would go to New York bankers and speculators, he said. Senator Borah also stated that the terms of loan called for appointment of American officials to take charge of Liberian finances at salaries aggregating $95,000, all to be paid out of the loan. He objected, not merely to the payment of such salaries, but to the principle of American intervention in Liberia's internal affairs. Eldridge Garrett, Former Mill City Violinist, Is Dead Eldridge Garret, age 20, former popular Minneapolis violinist is dead according to reports from Seattle, Wash. Eldridge was the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Garrett, former residents of Minneapolis, now of Seattle. He was educated in the Mill City schools and received most of his musical training in the Mill City. Last winter while visiting in the Twin Cities, Garrett, who was at the time playing with Moore's Orchestra was signed up to play with a colored troupe on the Orpheum circuit. After touring the country, he returned to Seattle in the spring. Becoming ill, he was advised by physicians to seek a more favorable climate. Accompanied by his mother, they went to Phoenix, Ariz. Not receiving any benefit, they went to Kansas City, where despite the best medical attention, he passed away at the home of his aunt, Mrs. I. Wilson. The news of the promising violinist's death will be hard for many of his Twin City friends and admirers to accept. Miss Doris Ervin of 677 Rondo St. enters Macalester College Conservatry of Music to take an advance study of music. CO-EDITOR OF MESSENGER MAGAZINE RECEIVES NEW THREATS FROM KLAN CO-EDITOR OF MESSENGER MAGAZINE RECEIVES NEW THREATS FROM KLAN Tells Brother He'll Shoot—and He Did West Plains, Mo., Sept. 22—"If you throw that apple at me I'll shoot you!" William Brown 14, threatened his brother, Harry, 16. Harry threw the apple. To date the doctor has removed 72 shotgun shot out of Harry's body. Machines Collide; Driver Arrested After Chase J. Jones, 294 St. Albans, last Monday, faced a charge of driving his automobile away after an accident in violation of the state law because Dan F. McEvoy, investigator in the county attorney's office, trailed him after his car had collided with that of W. A. Broderick, Saturday night. Jones, according to charge brought by Mr. McEvoy today, struck the Broderick car at University avenue and Grotto street. He failed to stop and Mr. McEvoy, who was driving close by, followed and with the aid of Detective Charles Oliver of Central station arrested him and locked him up. Jones is said to have admitted that he had an accident. He was arrigned in police court Monday and his case was continued until September 21 for hearing. Batt was fixed at $1,000. Considerable damage is said to have been done to the Broderick car but no one was injured. Jones was released Tuesday on ball. To Protest Ban Placed on Mixed Bouts in State To Protest Ban Placed on Mixed Bouts in State Mr. Hamlet B. Rowe of the Minnesota Messenger is arranging for a conference with Gov. J. A. O. Preus to protest the ban put on mixed boxing contests in this state. He has consulted a number of prominent citizens on the matter and finds that there is a public demand for such exhibitions. Mr. Rowe claims that Negro athletes compete in all other branches of sports and he can see no reason why mixed bouts are not allowed. New York and Michigan have removed similar bans on mixed bouts and the result of their actions have been pleasing. The delegation which is to confer with Gov. Preus will be made up of Twin City men. YOUTHFUL MURDERER HELD FOR KILLING PAI Louisville, Ky., Sept. 22—Lee Ralston, 14, has been arrested and charged with murder. His uncle brought him to police headquarters and said the boy was the one wanted for killing LeRoy Harris, 17. Harris died at the city Hospital after he was shot at 11th and Walnut streets. PRICE, 5 CENTS GAIN PASSENGER MAGAZINE CREATS FROM KLAN Letter Declares A. Philip Randolph Will Never Live to See January First KLU KLUX HOLD GARVEY AS "NEGRO OF THE DAY" Another Letter Threatens Both Writers with Death—Evidence Given Police. By Floyd J. Calvin As further proof that the human hand, received by A. Philip Randolph co-editor of The Messenger magazine, 2305 Seventh Avenue, on September 5, did actually come from New Orleans, La., Mr. Randolph, Tuesdav morning, September 12, received the following letter whose outside postmark wa that of New Orleans for the date of September 6: September 6, 1922 YOU WILL NEVER LIVE TO SEE JAN. 1, 1923, FOR WE DONT WANT NIGGERS LIKE YOU HERE. This letter is unmistakably from New Orleans. It was all written in red typewriter ink in capital letters except "Your gang goes to K. K. K." which was fairly well written in black ink. "Your gang" was script and "Goes to — — K. K. K." was printed in ink. The envelope was addressed to "Mr. Philip Randolph, Editor, Negro Monthly, New York City, N. Y." It was addressed in black typewriting. There was no number and the envelope had been to several different places before reaching us. The postmark was "New Orleans, La., Sept. 6, 1922, 8 p. m." Mr. Randolph also turned this over to authorities of the law and expressed himself as believing that it was genuinely Klu Klux matter and coming from the south direct. However, he is wisely cautious and has secured a permit to carry a gun. He will not in the least check up on his efforts against Garvey, but will fight him more relentlessly. Receives More Threats Also, last Friday, came a long letter to Messers. Randolph and Owen, with both their photographs enclosed, evidently clipped from the back of the July Messenger, saying they were traitors to their race and they would die the death of a fool. It further declared that "Hon. Marcus Garvey is the only black man of the day." The police also have it in hand for investigation. It was written in a fair hand, but devoid of punctuation, and signed "U. N. I. A. Member." The letter follows: This is to inform you two Negroes that we the people of Phila. have seen what you have put in the white paper. But let me say something the K. K. K. won't have to come from New Orleans to get you. You will be gotten right here in the North. We are tired of traitors in our race. Negroes have been traitors to their race for 300 yrs. and we decided once for all that wheresoever a traitor is found she or he shall die the death of a fool. Showing the letter to the police of New York, that won't save you. You two Negroes have taken up a load that you can't carry and you won't be able to put it down. You ignore these letters that is written to you, that will be all right. I would say that myself if I did not know any better. You two Negroes have made all the attacks on Mr. Garvey; he has not made one on you. But you shall pay heavy for it. You spoke of our Socialism. Black people don't need Socialism. We need a Government to protect us from the (rope) (Bullets) (Gasoline) that's what we need, a government in Africa. Because you two Negroes can go among white people and get money from them, that's why you try to (Continued on Page 4) This is a sample image of a textured surface with a crack.

Entered as second-class matter February 20, 1922, at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under the Act of March 3, 1879. THE COMING OF THE K. K. K. Last Wednesday night at our St. Paul Auditorium, Dr. C. Lewis Fowler, one of the 32 original members of the re-organized Knights of the Ku Klux Klan before nearly 1000 persons, attempted to tell of the aims and objects of the Knights of the Invisible Empire. He portrayed the organization as anti-Negro, and anti-Catholic, anti-foreigner, yet he declared most emphatically that it was a $100\%$ American organization advocating the protection of the guarantees of the constitution of this free land. He further insisted that this $100\%$ American organization stood for "white supremacy" declaring that the klan was organized to establish the solidarity and to realize the mission of the white race. To make a long story short he exposed "Klanism" in a true klanman's like way—favorably. But as a convincing speaker whose speech carries with it the audience, he failed miserably. Approximately one-half the house belonged to the recently organized Twin City klan or were in sympathy with the principles of the klan while the other half of the house was composed of those who came to hear of the ideals of the Ku Klux Klan told by one in authority—the catholic, the jew, the foreign-born, the curiosity seeker, and last but not least, the negro. At the close of the meeting when members of the latter half of the house called upon Dr. Fowler to answer various questions he had made himself, once more he failed miserably. When asked where or who was his authority for the statements: that $62\%$ of the government officials from the president of the United States down were members of the catholic church, that Negroes had banded into 51 organizations for the purpose of demanding social, economic and political equality, and other empty, unfounded misstatements, the answer was, "Read my book" (meaning evidently that he was the author of a book that would supply his questioners with explanations). The name of the book and where it can be obtained is still a mystery. Judge Joseph B. David, of the American Unity League told the truth when he said, "The Ku Klux Klan was conceived in iniquity, propagated in graft and exists through the lack of principle." It is an organization whose principles are contrary to the fundamentals of the government of this country and should be wiped out by the federal government. When it is allowed to penetrate into the various sections of the country, spread its doctrines of malice and race hatred, it is high time American citizens were awakening to the grave danger lying in the continued existence of the Invisible Empire. If, the proposed meeting to be held in Minneapolis at an early date to which only members of the Ku Klux Klan and those invited by members will be admitted, is permitted to be held in the Mill City, the prongs of this mischevious piece of machine will be upon us. This meeting should not be permitted to be held. It should be protested to the authorities the minute it is definitely announced by klan officials. In Montana, klan_spokesmen such as Dr. Fowler, who was called on to show his cards on the table the other night and failed to, are not tolerated. Out there, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan are outlaws and they are treated as such. We should classify them likewise and make Minnesota a little hell for klanism and klansmen. Now that the local business league has been re-organized, may it get down to business and take its position in the community. There is plenty work here for the league. The move to remove the ban put on mixed boxing contests in the state of Minnesota inaugurated by Mr. Hamlet B. Rowe of the Minnesota Messenger, is a particularly good one. New York and Michigan have gone on record as favorable toward mixed bouts. Minnesota should have been the last state to draw the color lines. Now that a move has been started to remove the color line in the boxing game and as long as the public wants mixed bouts, Minnesota should go on record as in favor of mixed bouts before long. CONTEMPORARIES TWO DISTINGUISHED BAPTISTS PASS In the passing of Dr. Richard H. Boyd and Dr. E. Camp Morris, the Baptists have given up two of their supreme leaders in their church. The story of the lives of these two men should prove to be an inspiration to every boy and girl in the race. Their lives are plain refutations to the charge that the Negroes are incapable in the face of hard pressed environments. Both of them were born before the war and were reared in the school of those war days. From slave cabins to the executive chair of National Baptist Publishing Board for the one and to the presidency of the National Baptist Convention for twenty-eight years, for the other, were masterful, long steps in human achievements. When one remembers that Dr. Boyd was 21 years old before he could write, his wonderfully full life gathers fresh ustre. Dr. Morris was trained in the public schools of Alabama and Rogers Williams University together with the intense practical school of experience. The close application and conscientious effort employed by each of the two men lifted them to places of prominence in the councils and affairs of their church. Their open hearts and clear visions made their brethren respect their opinions and court their advice. Their final parting of the ways was due to the effort of each to advance the church, for at base each man had his own fixed principle of policy. It required a master mind to begin with nothing and to establish the National Baptist Publishing House. It required a mind equally as able to frame a policy elastic enough and firm enough to cement the millions of Baptists for 28 years in one great drive. The high Christian character shown by these two giants in the religious world will be a shining tower of strength to all weak and uncertain comrades who are to follow their foot steps in succeeding years. Counting that their policies did not meet with public applause in every instance yet their lead has lifted millions of men and women to a higher form of living and make the business side of Negro religion respected by the entire nation. NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Shopmen's Strike Is Broken By Separate Agreements With Many of the Roads. Senators Lodge, Townsend and Point dexter Renominated—Republicans Win Maine Election by Fair Majority—Danger of New War in the Balkans. By EDWARD W. PICKARD SEPARATE agreements entered into by striking shopmen and railways representing about one-fifth of the country's mileage last week brought about a break in the strike that has lasted for some 75 days and threatened the nation's transportation facilities with demoralization. It is believed some other railways will soon make the same arrangement with the men, these including the Rock Island, the Burlington and the Northern Pacific. Some of the big lines, notably the Pennsylvania, have not adopted the settlement plan. They assert they already have won the strike and will not make terms with the men who went out. Of the roads accepting the agreements the most important are: New York Central lines and subsidiaries, including Michigan Central, Boston and Albany, and Big Four; Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul; Erie; Chicago and Northwestern and its subsidiary, the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha; Baltimore and Ohio; Seaboard Air line; Southern railway; New York, Chicago and St. Louis; The Monon; Wheeling and Lake Erie. The agreements are, as they should be, a compromise. All the strikers, except those proven guilty of acts of violence, are to be taken back within thirty days at the prevailing pay prescribed by the federal railway labor board, and in the shops where they were formerly employed, but not necessarily at the same jobs. There is no specific provision regarding the matter of seniority rights, but it is believed this issue can be worked out satisfactorily after the men are back at work. Any controversies arising from the strike that cannot be settled otherwise are to be referred to a commission to be established, consisting of six representatives of the labor organizations involved and six representatives of the railroads. This commission is to remain in existence only until May 31, 1923, and none of its decisions nor the agreement in general "shall be used or cited in any controversy between these parties or between the railroads signing the same or any other class or classes of their employees in any other controversy that may hereafter arise." There is to be no intimidation nor oppression of the employees who remained at work or those who took the places of strikers, and all law suits pending as a result of the strike are to be dismissed. CREDIT for arranging this agreement is evidently due mainly to S. Davies Warfield, president of the Seaboard Air line and head of a securities concern which owns large amounts of railway bonds. President Willard of the Baltimore and Ohio also was prominent in the peace negotiations; and B. M. Jewell, head of the striking organizations, proved amenable to all suggestions looking toward a fair and reasonable settlement. Mr. Warfield, in a statement concerning the agreement, made this pertinent suggestion: "Regional railroad labor boards should be properly and promptly established; a board named by each group of railroads that operate in each of the four rate-making districts into which the commission has divided the country; the men of each group of railroads to also organize boards to confer with the regional railroad boards. Negotiations could be successfully carried on and disputed questions settled if approached in good faith." HEARING on the motion to have the strike injunction obtained by Attorney General Daugherty changed into a preliminary restraining order until a trial began last week before Federal Judge Wilkerson in Chicago, and the attorney general announced that it would proceed despite the partial agreements reached. The temporary injunction was extended ten days, but the court warned the government forces it would not be further extended. The government presented many thousands of affidavits telling of acts of violence and threats and other circumstances, all tending to prove its theory that a conspiracy existed, which in effect obstructed interstate commerce. Mr. Daugherty's determination to press the case to a decision is based on his belief that the principles at stake are more important than any immediate issue or effect. The injunction, he thinks, if granted beyond the ten days now fixed by the court, will not only protect the workers who have taken places of strikers on roads not in the settlement, but will reach the question of responsibility of union leaders for acts of violence. NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN PRESIDENT HARDING and Secretary of Labor Davis were greatly pleased by the news of the partial strike settlement. The secretary said: "American industry has overcome the last obstacle in the way of the greatest economic revival the nation has ever known. With the settlement of the strike on many of the trunk line railways assured, the whole industrial machinery of the country is ready for a forward movement unprecedented in our economic history. "The disturbances in the bituminous and anthracite coal mining industries are in the past, and the 600,000 coal miners of the country are back at work. Our representatives in New England have advised me that in the textile workers' strike settlements are rapidly enabling the mills to resume operations. "These three great industrial disputes have been the only hindrances to the nation in its rapid recovery from the industrial depression which we faced a year ago. With them out of the way progress toward prosperity will be swift and sure." IT IS true, as Mr. Davis says, that the disturbances in the coal mining industry are ended, but the disturbances in the minds of the consumers of coal are just beginning. The dealers, greedy, unscrupulous and conscienceless, are demanding exorbitant prices for coal and the people are wailing, with little prospect of relief except in some states where the authorities have both the power and the will to check the profiteering. Meanwhile the congressional conferees have been disputing over the Cummins-Winslow coal distribution and price control bill, disagreeing as to its application to intrastate as well as interstate shipments. Henry Ford is the most vociferous of the big coal consumers, and according to the latest reports he had not altered his intention to shut down the Ford plants. He charges that the interstate commerce commission, through its control over empty coal cars, "is playing into the hands of coal profiteers under guise of regulations for the public good," and adds: "The same interests which own the public utilities, railroads and mines are using the commission as part of their scheme to fleece the public, and the scheme is so simple that nobody sees it." CONSIDERABLY battered by results in recent primaries, the "old guard" of the Republican party resumed its smiling appearance last week after the primary elections were held in Massachusetts, Michigan and Washington. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge won over Joseph Walker by a three to one vote, and will have to contest the election with William A. Gaston, who defeated Sherman L. Whipple for the Democratic nomination. Senator Townsend of Michigan, who was opposed by three candidates, won his renomination by a plurality of about 25,000—a notable victory since he was hampered by the issue of "Newberryism." Out in Washington Miles Poindexter had little difficulty in obtaining a renomination for the senate. The Democratic nominee is C. C. Dill. Two Democratic gubernatorial primaries in the South were of general interest. In South Carolina T. G. McLeod defeated Governor Blease, and the state is to be congratulated. In Georgia Governor Hardwick was beaten by Clifford W. Walker. Hardwick has opposed the Klu Klu Klan, which probably accounts for his defeat. Malne's election, which used to be considered a reliable indication of results in the nation generally in November, took place Monday, and the Republicans won by what the party leaders professed to regard as satisfactory majorities, though naturally they were far below those of 1920. Senator Frederick Hale's majority over Curtis, Democrat, was about 27,000, and Governor Baxter had a slightly larger margin over Pattangail. The four Republican congressional candidates were elected, but the Democrats increased their membership in the state assembly from 15 to 40 and in the state senate from none to three. Republican leaders in Washington called the Maine results an endorsement of the administration, while the Democratic chiefs found satisfaction in the reduced size of the Republican majorities. THE Greek debacle in Asia Minor was complete. Constantine's troops—those that were not captured—were withdrawn from the mainland in a hurry and the Turkish Nationalists occupied Smyrna in orderly manner. Then looting broke out, and on Thursday someone started a conflagration that destroyed the western part of the city. The Kemalists also occupied Brusa, burned by the fleeing Greeks, and announced that their capital would be moved to Konla. Their rejoilings over the victory were participated in by their countrymen who adhere to the Constantinople government, and there was much talk among them of recovering that city from alien dominance and of again possessing Thrace and the Dardanelles. This brought a warning from all the allies that an attack against the neutral zones of Ismil and the Dardanelles would mean war with the allies, and British and Italian troops were concentrated in those regions. Probably the allies can restrain the Turks, but the danger in the Near East does not stop there and many wise statesmen are shaking their heads over the prospects of a new war in the Balkans, Bulgaria is massing her forces on the Thracian frontier, while Jugo-Slavia and her ally Rumania are mobilizing to give the Bulgars battle. The Serbs, who themselves want pos- session of Salonica, are determined that Bulgaria shall not grab Thrace and thus re-establish contact with the Turks. The Bulgarian press is urging the government to abandon diplomacy and to fight. England, which has been the friend of Greece, will not permit Turkey or Bulgaria to get Thrace and has a powerful naval force guarding the waters between the continents. Italy is most desirous of peace and is urging England to consent to a new conference on the Near East. France rejoices over the victory of the Turks, but joins with England in the determination that Constantinople and the Dardanelles shall remain neutral and under international control. All in all, British diplomacy seems to have made a mess of it, but a layman at this distance has no right to pass judgment yet. Britain's course may have been influenced greatly by the ever existent and now increasing fear of a general Mohammed uprising against Christian domination. ALL the country shared with President Harding his anxiety over the serious illness of Mrs. Harding, and everyone rejoiced when the news came from the White House that the crisis was passed and the gracious lady's recovery was virtually assured. THE house sent the tariff bill back to conference because it objected to the proposed duty on potash and the provision continuing for one year the dye embargo act. The changes demanded by the house were made, and the bill was then approved by the representatives after a very brief debate. HAMMOND TURNER LAWYER 321 Metropolitan Bank Bldg.
