May 24.—Secretary of War Weeks has let it be known that any state may include Colored Americans in the Federalized National Guard, in such proportions as they may determine, on an absolute basis of fairness. This information the Secretary gave to Attorney W. Clarence Matthews of Boston, in an interview at the War Department. It repudiates the order issued by former Secretary of War Baker which has caused nationwide criticism and which has prevented Colored Americans from enlisting in National Guards except as "pioneer" or labor organizations. The associated Negro Press recently carried an extensive story on this subject, which was laid personally before the Secretary of War, Vice President Coolidge and others. Vice President Coolidge took a personal interest in the subject, for, as Governor of Massachusetts, he was prevented by the Baker order from including a battalion of Massachusetts National Guard in the regular state quota, in a manner in keeping with the traditions SCINTILATING SAMPLES OF SENATE OF THE UNITED BY SOUTHERN Two Remarkable Bills Which F nan Predilections Will Rega Embiotnon of Certain Near of Reconstruction Following 67th Congress, 1st Session.

At that time Mr. Coolidge proceeded to organize anyway, and declared that the Commonwealth of Massachusetts would stand behind the organization until a change of administration. At the time of making this statement, Mr. Coolidge was not a candidate for any office. Recently, Mr. Matthews, who was formerly assistant District Attorney in Boston, in company with a representative of the Associated Negro Press, took the subject up with the Vice President, and Mr. Matthews reminded the Vice President of his remarks. The Vice President, true to his promise, took the matter up immediately with the Secretary of War. This decision by Secretary Weeks, who will doubtless issue a formal statement on the subject, permits Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Illinois, and the District of Columbia, where there have been National Guards for years, to organize on a just basis. It will also permit such other states as may desire to recognize Colored units, to organize on a basis in keeping with principle and justice. Sec. 6. That any person violating any provision of this Act shall be deemed guilty of a felony and shall upon conviction be subject to a fine of not more than $1,000 and imprisonment for a period of not less than one year nor more than five years.

There let him lie—I ask not his return That my poor grief may tend a lonely grave. There let him lie, among his comrades all, In the world's common sepulchre and shrine; The trysting-place of every nation's heart; And let the common sorrow hallow mine. But let me plant beside his resting-place, Where fleur-de-lis and scarlet poppies nod, A bit of beauty from his native land— The yellow glory of our golden-rod. There Belgium's bloom and Italy's fragrance blend; There shamrock buds and purple heather grows; There the fair lilies of the fields of France Grow side by side with England's beauteous rose. There, with the whispering maples and the pines, With cypress black and fragrant laurel bloom, The evening winds with gentle rapture blend The breath of wattle and the southern broom. O ask me not to take my love away— We should be lonely for the fields of France. —The Landmark COLORED CHILDREN FIRST CLASS CONFIRMED BY NEW YORK'S NEW BISHOP (By The Associated Negro Press.)

WOULD EXCLUDE NEGROES FROM MILITARY SERVICE Race Prejudice Proposed to be Enacted Into Law—An Attempt to De-Bar the Colored Race From the Army and Navy In Times of Peace; But In Times of War, That's Another Story So Our Correspondent Opines. Special to The Monitor, by Walter J. Singleton. WASHINGTON, D. C. May 26.—Under date of May 14th, United States Senator T. H. Caraway, of Arkansas, introduced a bill "Prohibiting the enlistment of any member of the Negro race in the military or naval service of the United States of America, and directing the discharge of all members of the Negro race now serving in any branch of the military or naval service of the United States, which we will quote in full. "Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That bereafter, in times of peace, no member of the Negro race shall be enlisted in any branch of the military or naval service of the United States of America. That all members of the Negro race now serving in any branch of the military or naval service of the United States shall be discharged from such service within sixty days after the passage of this act. That no member of the Negro race shall be admitted to either the Military Academy or the Naval Academy of the United States." It will be noticed that this bill is a short one, but that is not all—the time that will be spent in its discussion on the floor of Congress will be even shorter, before it is cast into a pigeon hole of the Senate to sleep the sleep that knows no awakening. It may also be said to be a small bill conceived for a small purpose, and the excitement it causes among well balanced and thinking people will be even smaller.

Only $30,000 Remains For Dead Man's Heirs. ADMINISTRATORS DEMAND AN ACCOUNTING Court Grants Restraining Order Against Powell Forbidding Him To Dispose of Any Part of the $146,000 He Modestly Claims As His Fee.—This Only One of Many Cases Demanding Adjudication in Oklahoma Courts Involving Millions. Special to The Monitor: $146,000 for Services MUSKOGEE, Okla., May 26.—An interesting suit involving the appropriation of a large estate amounting to nearly $250,000 belonging to Jacob Anderson, a Negro, by George Powell, white, his attorney, has been attracting very considerable attention in this community for several days. The seven children who are Anderson's heirs were undoubtedly being defrauded of their inheritance. Powell's explanation of his possession of Anderson's estate is rather ingenious to say the least. Here is his story as reported by The Daily Phoenix of May 4. Jacob Anderson gave away his fortune to his own attorney, George K. Powell, because of fear that attorneys would dissipate it in the administration of his estate after his death. Such is the explanation of Attorney Powell of why the dead Negro gave him a deed to mineral rights that sold for $146,000 and later gave him a warranty deed to the oil land itself, which brings an income of between $6,000 and $8,000 a month in oil royalty and is valued at $100,000 or more. The dead Negro gave Tom Hunter, his friend and confidential advisor, his homestead of 80 acres and an additional 80 acres of oil land of a total value of $50,000 or more, in compliance with a promise made years ago to give Hunter a home if he'd come to Oklahoma from Texas. $90,000 Remains for Children This was Hunter's explanation of how he happened to get a big slide of Anderson's fortune when he went upon the witness stand in the county court yesterday. The evidence showed that there is only about $30,000 and no land at all left to the seven children of the dead Negro, five of whom are minors. Powell said that when he cashed the $146,000 check in Tulsa he accepted three cashier's checks, one of them for $98,000. This check he made out to Anderson and tendered it to him three times, he said. "I'm not entitled to it. It is yours," the Negro told him, Powell testified, and after the third tender he got the Negro to indorse it over to him. His Exposure of Conditions In Georgia Brings Denunciation From High Officials. — Governor Has Backing of Broad-Minded Citizens. (By The Associated Negro Press.) ATLANTA, Ga. May 26.—If Governor Dorsey wins in his fight for better treatment of Negroes in Georgia, he must do it almost single-handed. He has the moral support of ministers, teachers and women's clubs, but has brought down upon himself an avalanche of criticism and abuse from other state officials and public men. Saturday Govenor-elect Thomas W. Hardwich and Sam L. Olive, president of the Georgia state, and—by reason of that poposition—second in authority to the governor, both denounced the governor for vilification of Georgia and for slanderous charges without basis of fact. The criticism was brought on by publication of a report prepared by the governor in which he listed 135 cases of alleged mistreatment, murder, lynching and peonage with Negroes as the victims. He declared Georgia would be as severely condemned, if this condition continued as Belgium and Leopold were condemned by God and man for the Congo atrocities. A Bitter Denial. President Olive, in bitter language, denied the existence of conditions as described by the governor; declared that the only way to stop lynchings was to stop rape and murder; declared that peonage did not exist generally, but said the Southern farmers were compelled to make Negro farm hands work out on labor contracts. He said that further agitation of the public over the race problem LIFTING. LIFT, TOO!

Powell, attorney. The sum deposited to himself as attorney he has expected to invest and use the income to educate the dead Negro's children. The only consideration for the $146,000 and the oil land, which is in the heart or the Glen Pool, was "professional services rendered and to be rendered," the attorney testified. Hunter said Anderson gave him the 160 acres of land unconditionally and that he wants to adopt Anderson's minor children merely out of the kindness of his heart. Attorney Powell, too, said he was under no restriction whatever as to the use of the $146,000, that it is all his to do with as he pleases and that it was his own idea to invest half the money and expend the income upon the dead Negro's children. Administrators Amend Suit Attorneys for the administrators of the Anderson estate announced, following the disclosures made by Hunter and Powell upon the citation hearing, that they will amend their suit against Powell in the district court to ask for the $146,000 instead of the $50,000 mentioned in the original petition and that they will also bring suit in Creek county to cancel the deed to the land. Proceedings restraining George Powell, local attorney, from disposing of any part or all of the $146,000 given him by Jacob Anderson, Negro, and ward of Powell, who died some time ago, were granted by Judge Guy F. Nelson in the district court May 13. The restraining order was brought by J. C. Buchanan and H. A. Boyles, administrators of the Anderson estate. In an inquest of the whereabouts of the property belonging to the Anderson estate, said to be worth $200,000, held before County Judge Enloe Vernor, two weeks ago, Powell testified that he was given $146,000 by the Negro just before Anderson died. Powell stated that he intended to use $98,000 of the money for the education of Anderson's children and had placed $65,000 in the Commercial National bank in certificates of deposit. (By The Associated Negro Press.) CHICAGO, Ill., May 26—The growth of the Ku Klux Klan, among Americans North who are not in sympathy with many of its secrets as they effect Jews, Catholics and colored people is attracting attention. They are said to be working assiduously among members of the American Legion and to have obtained many converts. It is thought that many Legionaires who have joined have been camouflaged by its so-called American principles. Major Reed Landis, famous Aviation ace and son of Judge Kenisaw M. Landis, said recently that the selection of Simmons to head the Knights of the Air was due only to his ability as an organizer, and that he would have no part in any movement directed against creed or color. The denial: of Gen. Pershing and others that they are identified shows the lengths to which the so-called Klan will go to secure public approbation. WELFARE WORKER RESIGNS Mrs. Julia A. Hudlin, who has been a most efficient member of the staff of the Welfare Board, working chiefly among our own people, has tendered her resignation. She succeeded Mrs. Ruth Wallace, the first woman of our race in this city to hold such a position, about two years ago. Mrs. Hudlin has been a most capable officer of the board. might bring serious results, and declared that Governor Dorsey's statements had already cost Georgia farmers thousands of dollars because of the stirring up of discussion among Negroes.

The former position, considered the choicest plum suited to the appetite gf the faithful brother of ebon hue, in the local po- litical orchard; is under Commission- er Butler.

In the commemoration of the day here and abroad there was a silent power that all who participated could not but feel, Tears were nearer the surfacesthan any one suspected, memories more poignant. The vers thought of our @ead"Iying In the soll of France, thelr graves covered with flow- fers by the bands of French women and French children, the bugles of thelr French comrades blowing over them, stirs the deeps of reverence and loyalty. ‘A scene in France, in one of the lnrgest cemeteries in which American soldiers are buried, is thus beantifully described: TT seane Most Ploturesgue Beyond the wall masses of purple lacs spread against the low red roofs of the houses, In the distance a few lazy clouds, in sky of blue, hung about the old cathedral spires, Bird calls and scent of flowers filled the air, At our feet low mounds and white ‘crosses. Above our hends, at half mast, the Stars and Stripes. Monsteur Gounelle, in black cassock. spoke In French and explained to his people the meaning of Memorial day. ‘One felt, Instinetively, their sympathy and love. ‘Then we laid on every grave a spray of flowers and breathed « prayer for the absent ones. Each girl felt per- sonally responsible for each mound In the row she decorated. How clear the names on those crosses stood out even though a year had passed! ‘The French officers Inid a wreath at the foot of the flag pole and one of them spoke with tenderness of the he roes who had gone on. Already there hung upon the pole lovely wreaths from the Ville de Chateauroux, trom the French mothers association, and other logg! organtzations. ‘The chaplain from the post at Mon tlerchaume addressed us, and then three volleys rang out upon the alr, the missives winging ‘thelr way over take our place next year, and in all the years to come. ‘There will be flow- rs upon these graves this year, Gradunily the cemetery became de- serted except for a few who lingered. A group of marines stood about the grave of x comrade very dear. Its marker was of stone and bore these words: “A true soldier beloved of his comrades.” At one side a lad stood weeping and told us that his brother fell beyond the German lines. ‘Madame Gounelle, Georges and his ‘mother came and talked with us. Love ‘and sympathy shone in thelr thces as they told us of the honor that was thetrs in caring for these graves. 1 thought of Georges’ letter and his offer of the friendship of “a little French: man,” Deep in our hearts there will live forever a memory of this “ttle Frenchman.” It was just the loving kindness of « Kindly people and was thus, no matter where we went. Pilgrimages to the cemeteries at Suresness, Chalons, Fismes, Chatel-Guyon only served to deepen our gratitude to them. ‘Oh, Mothers of America, you neod not fear. Again the mother hearts tn France will leap the wide expanse of sea and utter a prayer for you as they drop thelr flowers upon our graves this "year.

Promptly at ten o'clock the guests were seated and partook of the delicious menu of: First cocktail, half chicken, creamed peas, creamed potatoes, hot roils, salad, ice cream, coffee and mints. Between courses the couples danced to wonderful music by Fletcher's orchestra.

It is hard for some people to understand how such silly measures have their conception—but the explanation is simple enough. The introduction of this bill will put Mr. Caraway solid with a certain ignorant and bigoted element of his constituency, away down the muddy roads of Arkansas, and will bring him many votes which may insure his tenure in office, and so keep his name on poor Uncle Sam's pay roll. We say "poor Uncle Sam" advisedly, because our good Uncle tries so hard and spends so much money in his efforts to provide legislators who are supposed to give the country wise and practical laws, and Oh, how he is imposed upon sometimes. is imposed upon Read the above bill again and you will see that it is just a joke and not a good one at that. We could have coached Mr. Caraway and made it much more laughable. The bill as it stands, provides for times of peace and contains three sections. It ought to contain one more section to cover war times, and the added section should provide that all members of the white race be discharged from service and none but Negroes be admitted to the Army and Navy of the United States during war times, which would ship all the Negroes to the front and kill them off by the millions. In the minds of some Members of Congress, what an ideal dream! Why did he not include this provision in his bill? While he was making a joke, why didn't he make a good one? As we have said before, it is a short bill and its life will be even shorter. FIVE ROOMS—For housekeeping. Modern. For responsible party. Reasonable. No children. 1445 N. 19 St. —1t SLOGAN: birthday.
