SCIENTIST SCOUTS RACE SUPERIORITY
Psoffessor Franz Boaz of Columbia University Declares That Inherent Racial Inferiority Not Proven
ADJUSTMENT TO CONDITIONS
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Professor Franz Boes, of Columbia university, and curator at the American Museum of Natural History, in an article entitled "The Question of Race Purity", published in the American Mercury for October, attacks he decries of race inferiority and race superiority and asserts that science has yet seen no proof that any race is superior to any other.
"I insist," writes Professor Bons,
"that nobody has ever given satisfactory proof of an inherent inequality of races, and that the final solution of this problem still has to be found."
Professor Boas finds that people of different races can adjust themselves about equally well to varying climates, and to different kinds of task, although there will be great variation among the individuals of any group. "The claim for the superiority of pure races has never been substantiated," writes Professor Boas. "As I have pointed out, the purity of any given racial type is a debatable question, and the claim that only extreme types are pure is founded on a misconception."
Concerning the prejudice against Negroes in America, Professor Boas writes:
"It is particularly worth remarking that the current unfavorable opinion of the Negro is based largely on complete ignorance of African native conditions, and of Negro achievements in the industries and arts and in political organizations and that likewise the glorification of our own race is pounded exclusively on a consideration of the cultural opportunities given to the few and on the complete neglect of the cultural primitiveness of the great mass of individuals, which finds expression intellectually in the uncritical acceptance of traditional attitudes and emotionally in the ease with which they succumb to the power of fashionable passions. We may say with certainty that the local types of a hereditary differences in mental characteristics between the types as whole are most unlikely. We may say, furthermore, that cultural anthropology makes the existence of fundamental racial differences very improbable."
INDIAN HEALTH RATE BAD
(By the Associated Negro Press)
New York, N. Y., Oct. 24.—More than 20 per cent of the Indians on reservations in this country are suffering from tuberculosis or trachoma, according to an announcement issued by the Indian Defence association.
BERLIN LONG ON
MARRIAGE BROKERS
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Berlin, Germany, Oct. 24.—Unsettled conditions growing out of the world war have caused the growth of a form of marriage brokerage in this city. At the present time there are more than 1,000 brokers in the city, divided into three classes, catering to high society, the middle class folk and the poor. They do a thriving business. Among the upper crust are many women who have money but are not much on looks. They are anxious for husbands, too.
YOUNG MEN ORGANIZE
REPUBLICAN CLUB
Several young men met at the Republican headquarters in the Jewell building Tuesday night and organized "The Young Men's Republican Williams-Barnett Booster Club" with the motto, "Talk Little; Do Much." Their program is to boost for the election of Rev. John Albert Williams to the Sihool Bard and F. L. Barnett to the Legislature.
Dillard Crawford was elerted president, E. G. Green vihe-president, Mallium Scott, secretary and James Lewis treasurer. Several enthusiastic "addresses were made. The club meets next Tuesday night.
THE MONITOR
Republican Party Again Leads in the Recognition of Prominent Race Leaders
M. W. H.
Pictured above are the active political leaders of Negro America. When President Coolidge began his campaign for reelection to the high office he now holds it was announced that the work would be conducted upon a business-like basis. It proved to be so in the selection of his white aides and it is equally so with the colored. The men and women who are now at the helm are there because of their peculiar ability to do what is expected of them, to give service that is fuller of conscience than of sentiment. These leaders represent the new order of things.
Pictured in the circle in the center is Mr. William Clarence Matthews, Boston, Mass., the organizer of the Negro division of the Republican National Committee. He was born in Alabama and educated at Tuskegee and Harvard. At Tuskegee he organized the first baseball and football teams to represent that institution. At Harvard he studied law and was a star football player. He has served as an assistant district attorney in the state of Massachusetts. His acquaintance with President Coolidge has been over a long period of years and his devotion to the President is the result of both warm personal admiration and a steadfast belief in that honesty, courage and straight thinking which have made Mr. Coolidge generally popular. He has complete charge of Negro affairs in connection with the Republican party's present campaign.
At the right of Mr. Matthews is Miss Hallie Q. Brown, former president of the National Association of Women. Miss Brown's position among the colored women voters is similar to that of Mr. Matthews, she having complete charge of political activities touching the colored republican women of the nation.
Mrs. M. C. Lawton, president of the Empire State Federation of women, is the organizer among eastern women, with headquarters in New York City. She is at the left of Mr. Matthews. Immediately under Mr. Church is W. T. Francis, St. Paul, Minn., chairman of the western district. He is a lawyer of enviable standing. In 1920 he was a presidential elector from Minnesota. Next to Mr. Francis is Mr. G. W. Lee, vice-chairman of the western district. Mr. Lee comes from Memphis, Tenn., is an active man in business, having been vice-president of the Mississippi Life Insurance Co.

PROVIDE CELLS FOR
DIVORCE SEEKERS
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Paris, France, Oct. 24.—Hereafter men and women seeking divorce in the Paris courts will be compelled to spend sometime in a locked cell. This was made necessary because of the fights the husbands and wives often get into while awaiting adjudication of their suit.
AFRO-AMERICAN STEPS ON THE GAS
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Baltimore, Md., Oct. 24.—With the installation recently of a brand new Hoe rotary press, equipped for color work and capable of printing 24,000 copies per hour of a 4 to 16-page newspaper, or a fewer number of 32 page papers, the Afro-American of this city stepped out into the lead of Negro newspapers in respect to mechanical equipment and operation.
The big press was shipped from New York in two freight cars. Instruction in its operation was given by experts of the New York firm to the Afro's pressmen who now are putting it through its paces unassisted. Heretofore the only Negro newspaper to have a press as large as the one of the Afro is the Chicago Defender. The Defender press, however, is operated by white force, the Afro by Negro workmen.
The first issue turned out on the new press consisted of 20 pages. It is expected that the management will go to 28 pages in the near future. The Afro-American is in its 34th year, was founded by the late J. H. Murphy, and is now conducted by his sons, Clark, president, and John, acting secretary-treasurer.

All the co-operation, however, will be on a Jim Crow basis, the Negro veterans assigned special place in the parade, a special section of the auditorium and a special feed at one of the local ball parks. The decision to invite the colored fighters was made by unanimous vote of their white brothers.
DAHOMEY PRINCE
CHICAGO VISITOR
PRINCE IS WELL EDUCATED
(By the Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 24.—Colored Chicago had the pleasure of entertaining through the past week a real, honest-to-goodness prince in the person of Prince Kojo Tovalou Housnou of Dahomey. The prince is in this country to study the problems affecting the American Negro. His activities so far have been largely connected with the workings of the Universal Improvement Association.
Prince Kojo is a scholar of the first rank. He holds degrees of bachelor of arts, master of arts, and science, doctor of philosophy, doctor of law and doctor of medicine from the University of Paris, is president of the Universal League for the Defense of the Black Race, and editor of the newspaper Les Continents.
Last winter the prince was the cause of an official warning being issued to American tourists in France, a party of whom insulted his highness in a Montmarte cafe. The French government informed the Americans that if they could not treat French citizens with respect, they would have to leave the country.
Dahomey, on the West Coast of Africa, between what was formerly German Togoland and Nigeria, is a French protectorate. Prince Kojo is a nephew of King Bohani whom, in 1890, the French deposed and exiled. He died in 1906, leaving Prince Kojo the legitimate heir to the throne.

WHITE WOMAN PLEADS FOR
LIFE OF NEGRO BOY, 16
Oklahoma City, Okla., Oct. 24.—Mrs. Mabel Bassett, white state commissioner of charities and corrections in a plea in the form of a public statement, is endeavoring to save Elias Ridge, 16-year-old ignorant Negro boy, sentenced to die in the electric chair for murdering a woman. The boy was 13 when the murder was committed and on account of his youth and illiteracy, wide-spread interest was centered in his case.
If Leopold and Loeb were too young to die at 19 for a murder committed for he sole purpose of a thrill," Mrs. Bassett said, "then this youth certainly is too young to die for a crime he committed under the influence of an uncle."

BISHOP CLAIR PAYS
OMAHA BRIEF VISIT
The Rt. Rev. Matthew W. Clair, of Washington, D. C., one of the two colored bishops of the Methodist Episcopal church, paid Omaha a brief visit Tuesday, coming here from Sedalia, Mo. He preached an admirable sermon in Grove M. E. church Tuesday night, which was heard by an appreciative audience. The ladies of the congregation had planned an agreeable surprise for him. The Rev. Dr. Logan had apprised them of the fact that October 21 was Bishop Clair's birthday anniversary and at the close of the services he was presented with a beautiful leather brief case in an appropriate speech by Dr. Logan. Bishop Clair had overlooked the fact that it was his birthday which made the surprise the more pleasant. He urged the congregation to remain loyally together until he could send them a pastor. The sum of $100 was raised at the service to meet Grove's apportionment for the general work of the church. Bishop Clair left late Tuesday night for Topeka. His district or diocese includes eleven states with Liberia, Africa, thrown in for good measure.
NOT LEFT ALONE
PORTUNATELY for our people there are many right-thinking, broad-minded and justice-loving white people in every community who have the courage to stand up for the right. Omaha has some of this type. They do not covet the limelight, but they are willing to take a stand and use their influence when exigencies demanding action arise. This has been demonstrated recently in the Howard Kennedy school affair where the janitor was vindicated by a committee of school officials for his unwarranted interference with Troop 23, Boy Scouts, the facts of which were given in The Monitor. One gentleman was present at the investigation who is deeply interested in social work and the welfare of our people. He is a prominent and influential business man. The injustice of the action was so glaring that he could not permit it to pass unchallenged. He felt, and did try so, because he is closely in touch with the thought of our people, that to do so would seriously jeopardize the good will which largely prevails in our community. To condone injustice is always a serious mistake. He, like some others, believes this to true. And so he got busy. The result was that letters were written to Superintendent Beveridge and the School Board by representatives of welfare organizations respectfully calling attention to what was considered an unfair attitude. Suffice it to say that another janitor is now employed at the school. This shows that when our cause is just and we conduct ourselves so as to win confidence and respect we will not be left to fight our battles alone. Men with moral courage still survive, willing to espouse a just cause.
A NEEDED WARNING
LET us not be lulled to rest with the false belief that the hooded brotherhood wishes our people no ill and that they are only opposed to other groups of citizenry such as Jews, Roman Catholics and the foreign born. Even though what some of them in the face of their written documents aver, were true, which, of course, is not. we who believe that
God has made all men and that all men are His children could not for one moment regard with favor or indifference their program of intoleration, even though it excluded our group. But we colored Americans are objects of their hatred and ill-will. They have cunningly devised plans which aim at the abridgement of our citizenship rights by legislative enactment. For example, in states where under the constitution all citizens are equal as regards the privileges of travel and school facilities, it is planned to pass legislation which will compel the separation of the races on railroads and street cars, in public places and schools. Of course in states like Nebraska and Iowa the possibility of such a thing seems quite remote. And yet, what at times, seems to be remote or even impossible come to pass. This is part of the program which these purveyors of racial and religious hatred and prejudice are trying to put across. Therefore, it behooves us right here in Nebraska to scrutinize candidates for all offices, municipal, county and state and especially for the legislature and senate and if there is any well-founded suspicion that they belong to the Klan vote against them. We are sounding no false alarm, neither shying at white stones. This warning is needed and timely. Be vigilant. Keep your eyes open and your ears to the ground.
ELECT OUR CANDIDATES
BELIEVING in their rights as American citizens to stand for public office members of our race have filed as candidates for the state legislature and the board of education. Of course there are those who feel that it is a mistake for colored folk to stand for election. Others, and their number is far from negligible, believe that it is the right thing to do where they have the qualifications to render intelligent and faithful public service. Such people will vote for candidates of our group. With the solid support of our own people for these candidates supplemented by the votes of the liberal minded among other groups of voters these candidates can be elected. Let us stand unitedly behind our candidates for the School Board and State Legislature. They can be elited. Vote unitedly.
Sam K. Greanleaf, republican candidate for county assessor, was born in the town of Paris, Edgar county, Illinois, November 4th, 1860; moved to Terre Haute, Indiana, at the close of the Civil War, where he was reared and educated in the public schools. Came to Omaha, April 1st, 1888. His public service began in the office of the city clerk of Omaha in 1901, where in served five years, having been employed previous to that time by the Omaha Street Railway company.
Entered the service of Douglas county treasurer's office June 1st, 1907, under County Treasurer Robert O. Fink, and has served continuously in that office under five county treasurers, three republicans and two democrats, for a period of more than seventeen years, and for the past thirteen years, he has held the important position of chief clerk. There is no record of any other man having served so many consecutive years in the county and city treasurer's office.
The outstanding feature of Mr. Greenleaf's connection with the treasurer's office was the reconstruction
of the records of the office destroyed during the riot and fire at the Douglas county court house, in September, 1919.
SOUTHERN MIGRANTS
SWELL G. O. P. RANKS
Chicago, Ill., Oct. 24.—In a survey just completed covering a number of the key sections into which Negro laborers from the South have moved during the last four years it is disclosed that the sentiment is overwhelmingly Republican in most instances and safely so in others. Two of the overwhelmingly Republican cities are St. Louis, Mo., and Detroit, Mich. Two of the safely Republican cities from the standpoint of the colored voter are Kansas City, Mo., and Milwaukee, Wis., in La Follette's home state.
According to Dr. T. A. Curtis, St. Louis, chairman of the executive committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in that city, there are approximately 125,000 Negro voters in the state of Missouri. At the las' registration day 34,075 colored men and women registered. The city of St. Louis is Republican with majorities running from 20,000 to 50,000. Dr. Curtis believes that this year, as usual the vote will be Republican. One of the most prominent citizens of the town declares that 90 per cent of the Negro vote is Republican, 9 per cent Democratic and 1 per cent for La Follette. Father D. R. Clark, rector of Al Saints' Episcopal church, figures 80 per cent of the vote to be Republican and 20 per cent Democratic. About 20 per cent of the voters are listening to La Follette's preachings, but just listening. The Democratic Negroes, according to Father Clark, are that way "just to show the Republican bosses that we are free".
The opinion of intelligent observers, therefore points to a high percentage of the Negro vote being Republican, nearly 90 per cent or 30,000. This will represent an increase of 10,000 over the vote of 1920 and will go a long way toward dispelling any fear that the Democrats will carry the state. The state may go Democratic for governor, but it is held as very likely that the electoral vote will be cast for Coolidge.
Detroit, Mich., has had an increase of 623 per cent in its Negro population since 1910. Out of a population numbering 56,000 more than 35,000 registered at the last primary and, according to Walter H. Stowers, of the law firm of Stowers and Barnes, "98 per cent of the colored vote will be for the Republican ticket, about one-tenth of one per cent for the Democratic ticket and the balance for La Follette. Another lawyer, Chas. H. Mahoney believes that 90 per cent of the Negro vote will be Republican, not because they are altogether satisfied with the party, but because they are sure they do not want to leave it. "There is some talk for La Follette," he explains, "but I am of the opinion that even who talk for him will not vote for him. The number will be practically nil. We have no outspoken Democrats in our group at this time."
Dr. A. W. Womack, director of the Royal Brotherhood Knight's of Ethiopia, thinks a few will vote the Democratic ticket, but not more than two per cent and that La Follette has only interested the radicals of the group who do not number many. The increase of Negro voters in Detroit has made them considerable of a political force in the city and state. Aaron C. Toodle, executive secretary of the United Civic League, holds that John Smith, who received the largest number of votes as a candidate for mayor, was successful altogether because of the influence of the Negro vote.
The city's Negro population has grown so rapidly that there has been a big job in lining up the voters, but there are five political organizations in the city the chief of whose objects seems to be the getting out of the Negro vote, and bringing it into the Republican fold.
Kansas City, Mo., is one of the cities thought to be safely Republican. Not as many migrants have come into it as to Detroit and St. Louis, due largely to the fact that it is very little advanced over most southern cities in the advantages it offers to Negroes. Out of its total population of 350,000, however, 33,000 are Negroes and 20,000 of these vote. The colored additions to the population have been arriving at the rate of about 1,000 a year during the last four years, according to F. T. Lane, secretary of the Urban league.
Duane B. Mason, one of the leading lawyers of the city, is of the opinion that, although there are many Negro Democrats in municipal and state affairs, the Negro vote this year is going to be of material help in putting the state into the column for Coolidge and Dawes. "Negroes are not thinking of the La Follette ticket," he remarks. Of the 20,000 Negro voters in Kansas City, seventy per cent will vote the Republican ticket, is the opinion of W. H. Harrison, principal of the Attucks school. Twenty-five per cent will be Democratic and five per cent will go to La Follette. Mr. Lane of the Urban League expresses the belief that "the Negroes are almost evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats. At the present time the Republicans seems to have the majority, according to past state and municipal elections.
THE MONITOR
The coming election will most likely result in the same way since many Negroes who vote the Democratic ticket locally will vote Republican on account of the presidential election."
Milwaukee is not as good a barometer of Negro sentiment in Wisconsin for La Follette as some other cities in the state, due to the fact that there are few Negroes in the city, less than in any large American city and to the further fact of most of these Negroes being of a special sort. The migrants to Milwaukee are made up altogether of those persons lured north by labor agents and others who have made the city their second stopping place after first coming to Chicago, in the words of J. Harvey Kerns, of the Milwaukee Urban League, Mr. Kerns is secretary.
One observer believes sentiment for Coolidge and for La Follette almost equal, the swing to La Follette, if any, being due to the influence of the Universal Negro Improvement Association which has thrown its support to the senator.
Rankford G. Holley, chiropractor, subscribes to the fifty-fifty view of the above observer, holding, however, that the La Follette sentiment, is the outgrowth of the view of La Follette as a radical which appeals to those who are necessarily radical among Negroes.
Mr. Kerns of the Urban league differs from the two observers quoted.
"The general sentiment in the community favors the Republican party, though the Socialists are yearly winning Negroes to their way of thinking," he explains.

Famous Colored Comedian Will Appear With "Record Breakers" at Popular Gayety Theatre Next Week.
Glad tidings are in store for the lovers of Columbia burlesque, Old Man Johnson, manager of the Gayety theatre, says in announcing the coming of Billy Cumby (heralded as the Black Spasm), who will be seen at his best as one of the principal fun makers of Jack Reid's "Record Breakers", which comes to that popular burlesque theatre for one week, starting Sunday matinee, October 26.
To many of the theatre-going people, Billy needs no introduction, having been seen here for the past three seasons with the "Record Breakers", and formerly a great favorite with some of the biggest colored attractions.
A. B.
(Known as "The Black Spasm)
Clever colored performer with Jack Reid "Record Breakers" at the popular Gayety twice daily all next week, starting Sunday matinee.
It is said that Billy Cumby is one of the cleverest dancers on the American stage today, and with the aid of his shuffling feet he impersonates railroad trains, fire crackers and many other movable objects. He can do everything with his nimble feet except talk. He is not only a dancer but a comedian of note and will be seen in several screamingly funny scenes with Jack Reid. In the present piece Cumby is allotted an amount of new and original material that gives him full opportunity for the display of his talents.
In selecting the cast to support Mr. Cumby and himself, Mr. Reid has given much care to the all important feature of engaging people who can "do something". This "do something" means talent and ability to entertain. In so doing, Mr. Cumby will be surrounded by such capable players as Jack Reid (the information kid), Kitty Warren, Helen Kay Booth, Jessie Rece, Joe (Sunshine) Melino, Joe Lang, Billy Roscoe, Benny Platt, Rose Sharon, Ray's Comedy Circus, Jahaan Franks and a big kewpie doll chorus. It is asserted that the "Record Breakers" is one of the season's best offerings and is in two acts and fifteen scenes with some add twenty musical numbers that have that haunty, jazz melody.
