Pittsburgh Courier

idious Propaganda Used by U. N. I. A. Head to Further Expatriation Plot Disclosed. Hereafter, the Pittsburgh Courier has not taken any paran- tition with respect to the Garvey and anti-Garvey con- servers. We have contented ourselves with publishing what he had to say merely as a matter of news value. As he Garvey confines his activity to interesting Negroes in going to go to Africa at their own expense, we have nothing since some Negroes just delight to be fleeced, we are as to see Garvey fleece them as any one else. But when Garvey seeks to interest the United States Gov- ment in the expatriation of Negroes whose blood has long bought their right to a peaceful residence in this coun- tle the Pittsburgh Courier revolts at the idea, and views it as advised. The letter published below was sent to a United Senator by Garvey himself. It bears Garvey's signature. It publish it as a disclosure to the world of the dangerous ex- press to which Garvey will resort to continue his impracticable program at the expense of gullible Negroes; and at the same induce the Federal Government to underwrite his preach- ments. He may be trying to interest Senators in a pardon, and may be "selling his whole race for a pardon," but the Pittsburgh Courier can inform Mr. Garvey that his letter will never for him a pardon, nor for his impracticable scheme any federal sanction. The Pittsburgh Courier vouches for the gen- ess of the letter.—The Editor. The whole letter follows: October 22, 1923. States Senator. in Washington, D.C. I am charged with the duty and capability of writing to you on matters which I feel that you are engaged in, because of your high elevated position in the Nation, because of your humanitarianism which is to be to be begun. The subject is that of the Negro problem as it confronts us, not in America, but in the world. Here is a deep and earnest desire the part of some of the most forward looking states to make an immediate effort to settlement of the perplexing previous question of race. We therefore did not delay the set-up of this great question, because not settle itself. Universal Negro Improvement Association, an organization of million scattered members of I am President-General, is for a solution of the problem the founding and setting in Africa a nation for where the race will be the finest opportunity to de-self such as we may not ex-ten countries where we form but完毕 in a majority Government of other races. There is no doubt that the 20th Negro in America is dif- frem from the Negro of the last Today he is forward looka- bish ambitions. He is the pro- ducer best schools colleges and universities. With his training, he is prepared to be satisfied as a society consideration in the so- socratic and political life of education. By his ambition, he is going to the highest in political and industrial position. This the Constitution cannot be really denied him, but in the of a majority race that is not to allow the minority to en- tain the best that the education we have the greatest must be solved.

Do you believe that the Negro should be taught not to aspire to be the best imitation of the white man, but the best product of himself. 5. Do you believe that the Negro should be taught not to aspire to the highest political positions in Governments of the white race, but to such positions among his own race in a Government of his own? 6. Do you believe that the Negro should have a Government of his own in Africa? 7. Would you help morally or otherwise to bring about such a possibility? 8. Do you believe that the Negro should be encouraged to aspire to the highest industrial and commercial positions in the countries of the white man in competition with him, and to his exclusion? 9. Do you believe that the Negro should be encouraged to create positions of his own in industry and commerce in a country of his own with the privilege of trading with the other races of the world? 10. Do you believe that the Negro should be encouraged to regard and respect the rights of all other races in the same manner as other races would respect the rights of the Negro? 11. Should five or six millions or any large number of Negroes in the United States of America desire a repatriation to Africa for the peaceful building up of a country of their own, or for the settlement of such countries as the established among the industries without any serious handling to the industries of America, would you assist in this direction? It is felt that you will give deep consideration to this communication, and receive it in the spirit in which it is written—that of a desire to settle amicably a vexed question. I am forwarding you under separate cover, a copy of the book "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," and a copy of the September, 1923, number of the Magazine, "Current History," in which appear three articles on the Negro question in America, one written by the writer of this letter. In the book, "Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey," you will also find attached a reprint of a magazine article under the caption, "An'Appeal to, the Soul of White America." I am asking that you read the book and the articles, not with the eye of prejudice, but with the feeling of justice, in that the articles were written by a Negro from the viewpoint of a Negro, as he feels, on a question that deeply affects him. Knowing your broadness of vision and your liberality of soul, leads me to feel that you will judge the subject matter of the book with fairness to the race. With very best wishes, and hoping for an immediate reply, I have the honor to be, Your humble and obedient servant. (Sigreil) MARCUS GARVEY. President-General Universal Negro Improvement Association.

The man asked the privilege the morning of the funeral, denying that he was sorry at all that he had killed her and that he only wanted to attend the funeral "to make sure she is buried." He shot her sixteen times in a taxicab last night after she had clapped him when he asked her to return to him, he said. Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA'S GREATEST WEEKLY VOL. XIV. No. 44.

"Get In Line"—Slogan As Interest Slave Wedding Held Legal By Supreme Court Decision of Tribunal Gives Man Who Married "Slave Sweetheart," $7,500. NEW ORLEANS, La., Nov. 8.—The validity of a "slave marriage," performed before the days of the Civil War, proved the deciding factor here last week in one of the most bitter legal battles in years, when the Rev. M. H. Blackburn, 71 years old and rector of the East Baton Rouge parish, was awarded judgment for $7,500 against relatives by a decision of the State Supreme Court, as his sham of the estate left by his 150. Slave Marriage Upheld. The verdict was against Mrs. Cheney Cooper and Miss Selina Walker, sister and niece of the dead woman, who alleged they were the only living relatives and took charge of the estate, which was valued at more than $30,000. The question of whether a slave marriage was valid played an important part in the legal battle; the statements of the women tending to show that the ceremony was a "mock" one, and that the dead woman was not really married to the aged preacher. In his story, Blackburn told of his ardent courtship of the dead woman, then a "plantation belle," in the days before the Civil War, and of their subsequent marriage. Rev. Blackburn alleged that both were working on a plantation and that they were married with the consent of their "masters." Following the emancipation proclamation, the couple lived for 2years as man and wife, with no one questioning the validity of the performance. Mrs. Blackburn, it is alleged, acquired her rewealth through wise investment and strict attention to business, and at her death several years ago, left an estate worth approximately $20,000. It is alleged that no children were born and that the dead woman left no will. Then began the legal battle through the courts of Louisiana for possession of the property, the sister and niece of the woman claiming that the marriage was not legal due to the peculiar circumstances surrounding the ceremony. They further testified that the couple had secured no marriage certificate, and intimated that the ceremony was little more than a "mock" and that the couple had been living in a state of "common law" for years. Those Going to Philadelphia Urged to Get in Touch With Committee Early. "Yes, I'm going to Philadelphia Thanksgiving. I have already made my reservations on the Courier Special." Such is the answer to an oft-heard query one may often hear, as the time fast approaches for the departure of the special train, being worked up by The Pittsburgh Courrier Publishing its hundreds of fans, proctors and others to the biggest social and athletic classic of the entire year—the Howard-Lincoln game—which is to be held at the American League hall park Thanksgiving afternoon. With letters pouring in from all sections of the tri-state district, and with scores of people in the city signifying their intentions to attend the game via "Courierville," interest is already at fever heat, and present indications point to a delegation far Annabelle Lee Pretty and petite, lives "by the sea," and will be a mannekin in the Atlantic City Style Review, Thanksgiving night, in the Waltz Dream Academy, that city. Girl's Skeleton Found in Ashes Of Big Church TUSCALOOSE, Ala., Nov. 8. Discovery of the skeleton of a young girl in the ashes of a local Baptist church, just outside the city, which was destroyed by fire early Wednesday morning, caused the entire force of the sheriff's office to start an investigation of a case that has immediately developed many mysterious angles, and which may disclose a tragic murder. Officials express the belief that the girl is colored, but are also working on the theory that the girl might have been white, and was the victim of an illicit love romance with a colored paramour. Inquiry, begun by the coroner's office, disclosed that the skull had been fractured and several ribs broken. By the side of the skeleton, officers found the steel reinforcements of what was believed to have been an expensive suit case. Hairpins May Furnish Clue A bar pin pins are found near the body, but it was burned to such an extent that its previous value could not be ascertained. A number of steel hair pins, found near the body, may furnish a possible clue, and officers are using this faint evidence as a basis from which to work. Steels from the girl's stays indicated she was well dressed, it was added. Bits of charred silk negligee were also found. The body is being held by the coroner, pending efforts at identification. greater than that of last year, when the "Courrier Special" was inaugurated. The special will leave Pittsburgh on Wednesday evening, November 28, at 10:30 P. M., traveling over the Pennsylvania railroad system, arriving in Philadelphia at 6:55 A.M., the day of the game. The rates are as follows: Regular fare (one way).....$12.55 Lower berth (additional).....3.75 Upper berth (additional).....3.00 Reservations for train and game accommodations can be made by getting in touch with William G. Nunn, care of The Pittsburgh Courier, or by communicating with George Elliott. Those wishing reservations are urged to get in touch with the committee at once, in order that plenty of time can be had to make positive proper reservations. Tickets for the game can be secured at the office of The Pittsburgh Courier, where a special bloc of tickets have been issued for the accommodation can also be made at the Pennsylvania ticket office or at the P.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.—In a recent address before the American Iron and Steel Institute, of which he is president, Mr. Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the board of the United States Steel Corporation, said in part: "The prosperity of this country will apparently have cordial, appropriate and effective assistance from the national government, limited only by the established rules and principles and the general welfare of the people." He paid tribute to President Harding as the man whose words did more to bring the election day closer than anything else. Estimating the above statements, from a man who heads a productive industry that gives employment to a minimum of 600,000 men and transacts a business of more than two billion dollars annually, even a child can see that the future prosperity of this great industry depends largely upon the continuation of the economic policies fostered by the Republican party, the party whose leaders are trained business men, and, furthermore, that the reduction in the wage hours from 12 to 8 was made effective through a President who was the chief and the spokesman of the Republican party. Engaged in the iron and steel industry are nearly 160,000 colored men who with their families aggregate a population approximately nearly 500,000 persons. A conservative estimate of the wages received by these men would be $6,400,000 per week or $166,400,000 per year, and no small part of this considerable amount flows into our colored newspaper offices and our churches, into the cash registers of our 23,526 (Continued on Page 1, Col 1). Disbarment Proceedings Against Nutter Hearing Called Because of Failure of Witness to Appear in N. Y. Case. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Nov. 8. Failure to resume the hearing of evidence by the New Jersey Bar Commission against Attorney Isaac Nutter, this city, on charges of unlawful conduct last week was due to the inability of Prosecutor Louis Repetto to bring to this city Thomas Morrow, who served as a juror in a conspiracy case. Morrow informed County Judge Smatters that he had been offered a bribe of $50 to "hang" the jury. Agents of Prosecutor Repetto, after a long search, located Morrow in Florida. He promised to come to this city and appear before the investigators any date that may be fixed. After some correspondence it was agreed that he should testify December 14, and when the commission was informed of the fact it acted on the Prosecutor's suggestion and notified all concerned in the hearing of the postponement. Prosecutor Repetto stated that Morrow is the only remaining witness for the state to be called. The defense had entered most of its testimony. The Prosecutor, under instructions, will ask, if the commission asks, to have him debarred from further practice in this state.

TEN CENTS A COPY Estate RPRISED MATE" "Didn't Mean To Kill Him," Slayer Sobs Loved Him "Better Than Myself" Statement of Deceived Wife After Tragedy. JEANNETTE, Pa., Nov. 8.—"I loved him madly!" Bitter tears streaming down her face, her hands clutching the bars of her cell, pretty Hattie Robertson wailed forth the age-old reason for shooting down her husband, James Robertson, when she found him in the arms of the "other" woman, an altered fecal he never deserving me all the time, meaned. Between violent sobs that shook his slender shoulders, she told a story of love, a story of suffering. Never referring to her rival, she told of the few years spent with the man she loved — "better than myself" she said. The tragedy took place near the Robertson home in Grapeville, near here, shortly before midnight Sunday. Mrs. Robertson, who is 32 years old, started out to seek her husband, aged 33, as he had not returned home. Reaching the front porch she heard voices and discovered her husband and a woman a short distance away. According to the police, Mrs. Robertson fired four shots, one striking Robertson and causing his death. In the flash and excitement, Robertson's woman companion escaped, but it is known whom she is and where she resides. Excitement prevailed in the village for several hours after the slaying. Mrs. Robertson was arrested and police say she admitted the shooting. The "other" woman has not been apprehended, it is said. ARMISTICE DAY 8:15 A. M. Assembly at Bethel A. M. E.

A message was sent to the Board of Overseers of Harvard University last week by the N. A. A. C. P. calling attention to reports that the Ku Klux Klan existed in the institution and asking that the organizers be ferreted out and expelled. The message stated that the Klan was a vehicle for the dissemination of the poison of race and religious hatred, and that it would be better to close the doors of the university than to allow the "empire" to remain there. that the package was pushed in the horn of a trombone carried by Charles Shaw and the Garrison girl let's the pair standing talking about the incident.

He said that she gave him a key of the house in which she lived in order that he could get a duplicate for himself. The last he saw of her was at midnight when he went to the cafe to say good night. He then went home, he testified, and knew him of the murder until Shaw around the time he numbered 6 o'clock the next morning.

C., was convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to death by electrocution on November 30, after a jury had deliberated less, than five minutes on the case. Goss was alleged to have attacked a white woman, and this attack precipitated the disturbance of the races, which resulted in the deportation of about 200 colored citizens and a reign of martial law, ordered out by Governor Morrison. The case was tried and a verdict rendered in less than four hours, although the man protested his innocence. Prison Food Blamed For Man's Death ABERDEEN, Miss., Nov. S.—Robert Baker is dead; Lobe Bake and S. cancer Hulsey are in a dying condition, presumably as the result of eating some bologna sausage last Monday night. The men were being held in jail here on the charge of selling whiskey. It is said that when meal time arrived Monday night the men decided they would not eat the beans and corn bread provided by the jail, and sent a trusty prisoner to a nearby grocery store to purchase them some sausage and crackers. The men ate hardly of them and about 11 o'clock Monday night other prisoners heard the men calling for help. The jailer was said to have been in another part of the building and did not answer the cries. Soon the cries stopped. When the jailer made his rounds at 7 o'clock on Tuesday morning he found Baker dead and the other men seriously ill. It is said that authorities plan to take action against the grocer.

He claimed that the Stokes offered to hide the charge and pay him the additional sum if he would testify against Mrs. Stokes. Williams declared that he emphatically refused to comply with Mr. Stokes' wishes. Prison officials claim that Williams is a model prisoner and they are led to place credence in what Williams says about the matter. The warden says that he does not think that Williams is just talking through his hat for some publicity.

He stated further that he is anxious to tell all about the offers Stokes made to him.

Truth is stranger in Fiction this case than A GOLDEN Opportunity to Get In On a Bona-Fide $3,000,000 Proposition On An Investment of Only $50,000.00 Rich From Grass Roots Down—Producing Free Milling Gold, Silver and Copper Ore Here Is the Co-Owner Plan:— "Tis a long lane that has no turning" is the statement of G. W. Miller, grizzled western financial magnate and mining expert, and president of the Co-Owner Group of Mining Claims, who, with his vast wealth is standing behind this company—child of his own brain—and said by him to be the practical solution to the race's pressing economic, social and political problems. Mr. Miller, a true son of the west, that fabled country which we have often read about but few of us have ever seen, has spent 23 years in the vast solitude of that unexplored region, analyzing the country, has come out of that country, a powerful, picturesque figure, typical of the majestic solidarity of the mountains-which have for so long, been his companions, and brings to you a wealth of facts, supported by affidavits of western bankers and business men of integrity. Here are the salient and vital points: 1. The Property Showing It's Not a Speculation our mountains, extending hundreds of feet in height, are gold bearing, averag- The property owned by the Co-Owner Group of Mining Claims comprises 700 acres of land in Pima County, Arizona, 60 miles west of the city of Tucson the county seat. This land comprises one of the richest mining and ore districts in the entire country. These ores consist of gold, silver and copper. The ores occur from native metals, all grades, down to the average milling ore. 2. Not a Prospect The property is already being shown up for sale to big eastern companies. Several representatives of these companies have already been on the ground, and have carried favorable reports back to the organizations which they represent. So you can see that the proposition is not a prospect. Over $15,000 has been expended by the co-owners of the company in showing up the property and employees are working day and night to complete the work begun within the next six months. 3. Nation's Storehouse of Gold This 700-acre plot consists of 35 mines. Over 800 feet of work has been done in sinking shafts and driving in tunnels. Great gold-bearing ore veins have been shown up. The $50,000 still needed is for the purpose of completing the tunnels, and showing up to the satisfaction of the corporations interested in the proposition, the coarse gold zone and the zone of secondary enrichment for silver. These zones are known.

There are several millions of tons of this rock in sight. 4. Possibilities of Profit If this property is sold for $3,000,000, the price asked for, every co-owner will receive around $40 for every one dollar invested! This selling price is already in sight, and G. W. Miller, president of the company, is authority for the statement that when the showing-up process is completed, the property will sell for five times what he could get for it at present. This is why he is putting his co-owner proposition before the public, in order that they can line up with what he says "is the greatest mining financial plan ever offered to any people." The co-owner plan is a novel one, original and the idea has its origin from G. W. Miller himself. The entire amount of stock for sale is limited to $65,000. Of this amount $15,000 has already been subscribed for and the balance is going fast. (a) Co-owner interests sell from $5.00 up. (b) Your money will not be tied up longer than six months. (c) At the end of this time the property will have been sold and you will reap a return of around $40 for every dollar invested. The company has not only the support, but the financial backing of some of the recognized leaders of the race. All who have heard the co-owner proposition, have been convinced of its worth, of the integrity of its president, and the wonderful business opportunity it represents.

P.) A survey of 90 Georgia county prisons reveals the fact that they are among the worst in the country. This report is found in a bulletin issued by the state department of public welfare. There are county jails in Georgia, it is disclosed in the report, where men and women prisoners of all ages and of both races are compelled to live night and day in the compartment. Committee members of the department found actual instances of women prisoners living in the same cells with men prisoners and, in 11 jails there were absolutely no facilities for the segregation of prisoners, either by age, sex or race. WEEKLY SERMON If a Man Die, Shall He Live Again? Knowledge is a sword of defense, cutting assister Ignorance and Superstition. It is acquired through persistent effort, patience and research. Knowledge is development, producing sensitives of all who aspire for perfection. In this world of countless activities we are surrounded by many folk whose knowledge of, and in these activities have been accepted as final. We accept their conclusions as touching material matters, for much has been accomplished by their efforts. But the knowledge most illuminating on Life's path to travelers on their pilgrimage to the Provisional Law that, as taught by the plan of Gullee, Jesus of Nazareth, as follows: "Seek ye first the king of God and His righteousness." In acquiring that knowledge we find the master key to the door of the treasure house of unlimited possibilities. The knowledge we possess, which we have received from that treasure house, we give to all peoples these facts; foremost, that the so-called death is a change of condition; that the the existence of like Pimenomena. We know and hold these truths are above contraction and cannot successfully be combated, and we further affirm these facts demonstrate to suffering humanity, is civilization's greatest balm. Spiritual knowledge in Modern Spiritualism spells progression. When systems of theology, creeds and dogmas have reached the climax of their thought, Modern Spiritualism through her mediums who are sensitive, are reaching into the land of spirit, and from that treasure house of things possible communicate between this and the world of spirit, with the so-called dead (yet much alive). The message that gives peace to the troubled mind, and consoling words to those on earth plane who are in suspense. Such comfort sublime we call religion, and that is service to fellow man.

BROMIDE, DETROIT, MICH. "I Believe In A Square Deal For All"—Speelman WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.—In an interview today, Harley V. Speelman, Register of the Treasury, denied generally the charges of discrimination against colored employees in his bureau. Believes in Square Deal In explaining his attitude toward colored people, Mr. Speelman gave as his platform "a fair chance and a square deal for everybody." Going more specifically into the jim. grow allegations, Mr. Speelman explained the elevator service employed in his bureau, by stating that one-half of the office force is required to report for duty 15 minutes earlier and leave 15 minutes sooner in order to expedite the movement of the larger number of employees. Every other floor is required to report at 8:45 A.M.; but the floor on which the colored section is located has so many employees on it that it is divided into two sections. Mr. Speelman pointed out as evidence of his efforts to give colored people a square deal that there had been approximately an increase in the number of colored employees under him of 115 per cent. There are now in the office of the Register 118 colored employees, 63 of whom have been appointed in the past 18 months. Seventy-nine of these are colored section, which, it is claimed, is jim-crowded. Besides a colored section chief and an assistant section chief, there are also two colored women supervisors, who, according to the Register, are probably the first colored women ever appointed to supervisory positions in the Government service.

Dear ‘Tim: All that I could do during the past week was to lie in bed and dream football. My fractured limb kept good company. The team went to play Claflin last Thursday and you can imagine the time I had trying to make myself behave during the hour that the struggle was going on in S.C, They faftted me over to sec the Morehofii-Tuskegee struggle Sat- urday. “Although the weather was unfavorable, it was a good battle. It was a great sight to see Stevenson, Tuskegee’s triple threat _ halfback, boot the wet, slippery pigskin for long, well-placed gains. This lanky fellow pulled his team out of many dangerous positions by his kicking and was the principal figure on the oifense. Jordan, fullback for More: house, played al stellar role for the Maroon and White. Well, old timer, today is the day of the “big fight” between A, U. and Union. Although on the sidelines, we will be in every play every’ min- ute, We are not going to make any prediction as to the outeome; suf. ficeth it to say that the team that won't he beaten can’t he beaten. and the Crimson and Gray.” warriors have instilled it into their minds thar they won't be beaten. 1am hoping to be back in the game, when we meet “Tubby” John- son and his boys from Fisk, on the ith.

EIGHT Bedtime Stories In a PullmanSmoker Bedtime Stories In a PullmanSmoker RETURNING TO ZION (Lincoln Service) There was a nasal tonic inflection in his voice that marked him Hebrew, and when I entered the smoker, I recognized the speaker as my whilom-friend, the Wandering Jew. He had been through the West, not particularly on business, but more to recoup his health. He felt fine and was pleased to note the prospects for steady domestic activity. Something must be dofe to find a market for silver, he thought. There is such little silver money used that the western mines are encountering difficulty in placing their product. The Japanese earthquake was being felt in undertakers' accessories, silks, jinens, ete, but he didn't think the captains of the funeral industry would have nerve enough to raise the price of their sad service. The West was settling down to the determination of making the best of all conditions with a fine confidence in President Coolidge and his administrative agents. Lloyd George had absolutely "stolen" the show" among the Middle Westerners by his democratic attitude. He didn't think the colored migrants would be going South in great numbers during the winter, even if there should be a slump in production. The general outlook across seas is not so bright. "To tell the truth," said my versatile cosmopolitan, "I believe the world is losing its mind—a sort of universal loco. The war gave it a chance to revert to its cave-man instincts, which had been so long restrained. Besides, science and invention had developed quite to the aenea and these great forces were straining at their leashes. So, the Christian nations tried their mankilling devices upon each other. They throw every artifice of destruction into the burning cauldron of human hate. Since they've had a taste of blood, they rather like it. It's a kind of a 'fe-fi-fo-fum' proposition and they will probably continue until they get their fill." "Do I undahstand you, suh, as havin' been opposed to the wah?" asked a gentleman, who was evidently a Southern Colonel of the valiant Home Guards. There was once a Duck that lived in the midst of a big barnyard. One summer's day the eggs that she had been setting on hatched out—all but one egg; that did not hatch. It was a big egg, so big that the Mother Duck thought that it would surely bring forth a beautiful Duckling, or perhaps even a Turkey Chick. At last the egg broke. But neither a beautiful Duckling nor a Turkey Chick appeared. It was an ugly Duckling—the ugliest duckling that the barnyard had ever seen. "Perhaps it is a Turkey Chick after all," said the Mother Duck to herself for she did not believe that so ugly a creature could be her son. But when she had led all her children down to the water, the ugly duckling swam as well as any of them. Now when the other Ducks that lived in the barnyard, and also the Hens and the Turkeys that lived there too, saw this ugly creature they were angry. "We will not allow such a homely thing to live in our barnyard." they cried, and immediately they began to beat the poor Duckling and to scold him and to bite him. After a few days of such treatment he was so sore and so lame that he knew he could not stay in the barnyard another minute. Sobbing and with tears in his eyes he flew over the barnyard wall and ran out into the muddows. He soon came to a swamp where he found a flock of Wild Ducks. "You are ugly. Go away!" they shouted as soon as they had seen him. He flew off in search of some one who would "Whether I was or not," retorted the Wandering Jew, "I didn't sit at home to keep out of the draft. I went over like a man—enlisted and fought it out. Did you?" "Wall, I didn't exactly go over, but I done my bit. I calculated I could better suhve my country by remainin' at home. When President Wilson called fo' pine I sol' th' Gov'ment right smaht at a reasonable figgh. An', ob co'es cleaned up somethin' fo' myself." "Pine!" intoned the Jew. "Pine! Can you beat it! Pine to build ships, I suppose! Pine was about as much use in the war a sa ham-sandwich at a Jew picnic. You helped on the war with pine! Haven't you got a gross of distinguished service medals concealed about you? Pine! You're a real bargain as a hundred per cent American. Why didn't you raise mules to pull the airplanes?" The tall timber patriot retired in confusion and our philosopher continued: "There is an evidence of the prevailing mania. This man has hitched his wagon to a toad instead of a star and will never rise above a mud-puddle. He is an example of the war-like spirit that is having its inning. He wants to see a big fight so he can furnish the pine." treent him kindly. Toward evening he had become so tired that he had to seek shelter under a rose-bush which stood outside the door of a little hut. He was so frightened that it was morning before he dared move. Then he crawled into the sunlight and stretched himself. No sooner had he done so than an old woman ran out of the hut and waving a broom above her head she chased him down the road. The poor, ugly little Duckling didn't know what to do. It was getting cold for winter was coming on, and he had no place to go to keep warm. Day after day went by and it grew colder and colder. The snow fell, and the ponds froze over. The ugly Duckling was very miserable. But then spring came. One day while he was swimming about in a little pond, he saw a flock of strange birds flying overhead. "What beautiful creatures!" he cried. "I will follow them, for if they will only let me look at them, I will be perfectly happy." He flew after them and soon came to a wonderfully blue lake. At first he did not dare to go too close to the beautiful birds, but at last he took courage and swam into their midst, although he would surely be driven away—perhaps killed. "What a gorgeous creature!" one of them exclaimed: "Welcome, Lord and Master." cried another. "You are the most beautiful bird of us all!" The ugly Duckling was about to ask them not to make fun of him when he looked at his own reflection in the water. Lo and behold, he was a big, beautiful, white swan!

Forbes. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 8. (By A. N. P.)—The real meat of the coconut so far as the United State Veteran' Bureau is concerned, is coming to light through an investigation into the affairs of one Col. C. R. Forbes, former director of the bureau, who was appointed the position on the recommendation of "Hell and Maria" Dawes, of Chicago. The former director is being charged with all kinds of graft, such as selling dope for gold, boothegging liquor, extensive carousals with women, and questionable contracts. Mr. Forbes appointed as his assistant a Col. Ijams, a rabid southerner, who proved to be an obstacle in the path of the Negro veterans of the service. It was under Forbes, also, that Dr. J. R. Crossland, of St. Joseph, Mo., was appointed in charge of the Jim Crow division of the bureau. Not to be outdone by his superior, Crossland, though old and patrician, is said to have diligently engaged in marriage with One of Dr. Crossland's baby dolls was said to have lived in Chicago, and Crossland was charged with making many a love call to Chicago over the official wire. Whether true or not, the Jim Crow director's wife later secured a divorce on grounds in which such charges were included. With such graft and inefficiency as is charged to Forbes in the bureau, it is now questionable as to just what might be done with or for the Tuskegee hospital. There is a query in the minds of many of just what the bureau which handles so much money so carelessly can amount to. The question is asked: Can it ever be on the level?

The Fraters and friends assembled at Bethel church, Wylie avenue in quite a large number, and by their actions, and appearance, things looked bright for our Masonic Temple in Pittsburgh.

E. of W. are taking steps to securing an Ellt's rest, and will have a special meeting for the purpose of working up enthusiasm among all of the members. The Lodge membership is growing at so rapid a rate. It seems as though no trouble should be encountered along those lines. The offer of Bro. Henry Davis, to turn over his property, that purpose, is commendable. At the last meeting, 2 candidates were initiated and, at the evening meeting, there are 16 more who wish to be taken through the vale of main slaughter and good cheer. The course of action taken by Bison City Court of Calanthe in the case of sister Ella Kelley, and the payment of dues by the sick sister Brown, is not living up to the principles of Fidelity, Harmony, BUFFALO and Love. It seems to make some difference whose garden the ox is in. The old saying "Curses like chickens will come home to roost" may that be brought vividly to the minds of the "Powers that bo". It is hoped the sisters will re-consider their action and "Do unto others, as they would have others do unto them". Bison City Juvenile Court No. 23, O. of C, held their first reception on Saturday evening, and to the credit of the good numbers, it was a success, both financially and socially. The Juvenile Court, under the able leadership of -sister Beatrice M. Dixon, their matron, who is also District Deputy, O. O. C., is fastly marching on to the front row of Fraternal Societies. Notice have been sent out that Hadji Temple No. 61, N. O. M.

The meeting called by Court Douglas, No. 8494 A. O. of F., to take steps toward the erection of a memorial in memory of the late J. R. B.

Convenient Credit Terms Easily Arranged Colored Veterans Fail Indiana American Legion The American Legion, just back from the San Francisco Annual Convention, welcomed David. Lloyd George, Europe's wonderman and England's most illustrious son, for all Indiana. Hon. Samuel Ralston, the newly Democratic sonator from Indiana; Senator James E. Watson, former Governor James P. Goodrich, all received an ovation when they apeed on the speaker's platform of Cadle Tarnacle before the 15,000 people assembled to hear the honored guest. Strange to say, Democracy was greeted most loudly. Former Senator Liberald B. Browne, the sonator, his absence, Governor McCray and Mrs. McCray were also on the platform. Most everybody was there but the brother who evidently thought the American Legion of Indiana that voted for the Ku Klux Klan out in California two weeks ago was not particularly solicitous of their presence. Along with the irony of fate, the Rt. Rent. Lloyd George, ex-premier of England, based his plen on the spirit of Lincoln, love, liberty, freedom, and the pursuit of happiness to every citizen not only for prosperous America, but for the world and the peace of Europe. "Impirical Wizard Emphasizes Inseparable Gulf" "The low mentality of savage ancestors is inherent (born) in the blood stream of the Colored race in America.

The progress of the 12,000 Negroes of America in 60 years could well be forgiven if here recited since there is no other a political nor philanthropical motive hidden anywhere, but the gross absurdity and utter ridiculousness of such a position in view of patent facts about every community that even a blind man knows would cause us to break out with a hearty laugh if it were not a dangerous doctrine upon which to feed our semi-barbarous misses in the revived language of Barnum. We think what the end will be if these fatigues of this supremacy crying "wolfes" in the face of prosperity, good will, brotherly love and the sublimity of peace and contentment throughout this great nation if they are permitted to subly and slandestively usurp the power of free government by "invisible" methods and false doctrine. Such an intolerant statement coming from the head of an organization with an unsavory past cannot help but arouse the peaceful thought of even the most sanguine apostle of watchful waiting.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER About Obscene Shows The following from the pen of Clarence Muse, erstwhile actor, film director and journalist, appeared in The Chicago Enterprise of October 20, under the head of "The Negro Theater:" "It may be the demand of our public that the stage produce obscene productions, but I do not believe it, for at heart we are a clean people. A tainted play bolstered with smutty scenes, suggestive jokes and immoral costumes puts a dent in the better nature of every one who patronizes it. Why should the Negro theater, so young, so full of potentiality, start in missing so widely the purpose of the true stage? It is in the power of the Negro theater to uplift, even while entertaining, the morals of a race. The stage, of all things, should be clean and every spoken line and every bar of music should be a tonic and not a sedative to a man's moral nature The stage should educate the people up to accepting nothing but clean, wholesome productions. 'Bend a twig while it is young—that is to say, that while the Negro theater is in its infancy let it fulfill its purpose, that of elevating the morals of the race to a higher and fuller existence. The writer thinks as oldtimers always think—that clean plays never go begging for patronage." At The Elmore The appearance of the famous Lindsay quartet in the latest song hits, Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this week, a big midnight ramble Friday night and the second appearance of Lois B. Deppe and his recording serenaders on November 22, 23, 24, 'mark the highlights in the rounds of features being brought to the Elmore theater in the near future. Popularity Gains The show house is continuing' its reign of popularity among music lovers and one often hears it said that the Elmore has "brought downtown into the Hill" so far as high-class releases are concerned. Pullman Porters InNewYorkDance NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 9—"Swinging down the Lane" will be used as a merry making slogan by the Pullman Porters' Athletic and Social Club, Monday evening, Nov. 12 at New Star Casino, 107th st. and Lexington ave., where they will give their Armistice Frolic and Dansant in celebration of those members who went: "Over the Top" in the late war. J. L. Perkins, chairman of the entertainment, declares this affair will surpass any ever given by this organization. That being true, friends may confidently look forward to an evening crowded with pressure and satisfaction, for these Pullman boys are noted for the royal manner in which they generally entertain their guests. Preparations have been made for a record breaking crowd. Prof. Cecil Smith with his Famous Saxophone Band of 25 pieces will furnish the dance music. Tickets, Loges and Boxes may be secured at the Pullman Porters Athletic Club, 105 W. 136th st. Red Dresses Set Men Wild When a girl wears a red dress on the occasion of a date with her sweetie, it's something like waving a red flag before a bull. It makes the young man wild. On the other hand, blue is disarming. It soothes a man and "leads him on in a nice way." These precious bits of information are contained in the first lesson of the Chicago Y. W. C. A.'s course on "etiquette" for business girls, and are claimed by Miss Emily Jack Duncan, a secretary in charge, to be among the first things every young girl ought to know. It is admitted, however, that some young men are color blind or willfully oblivious to the alleged soothing influence of "baby blue." However, the business girls are told, they also owe it to the sheikh and to themselves, in case it's one of those old-fashioned parlor dates, to keep the red curtains and rugs out of the livingroom. Red always tends to lead toward a disaster of some sort, the Y. W. C. A. avers, and "nice girls" will avoid it. Little girls in blue, it is contended, appear to have nicer dispositions than little girls in green, which, while pleasant, hands out the subconscious impression that the pretty wearer has mercenary ideas concealed in the back of her head, even if it isn't so. Brown, it is also advanced, is almost sure to scare a youth away because it doesn't "call out his protective instincts." Meet Us In Cleveland, O., August, 1924 Cleveland, Ohio, was very fortunate in landing the seventeenth Annual Grand Session and Second Encampment of the Fraternal Order of Ancient United Knights and Daughters of Africa, of United States and its Possessions, August 4th to 8th, 1024.

DUBUQUE, Iowa, Nov. 9.—Patrick Kane lives in a shack on the outskirts of the city and owns an old gray horse. Two weeks ago the sheriff arrived at the shack at the conclusion of a wrestling match between Kane and his equine pal. It developed that Kane had attempted to induce the horse to get in his bed. The animal refused, hence the wrestling. Patrick lost. Next night he renewed his orders. "Lay down," he commanded, after Nig was led into the shack. But the horse remained standing. Patrick applied the headlock, and the rickety building collapsed when Nig retaliated. An amateur Barney Google, badly battered and disillusioned, paid $5 and costs for disturbing the peace. Story of the Girl On Your Penny Have you some pennies ready to take to. Sunday school? Look at them carefully and see if you can find the picture of a little girl. Perhaps on some you have a picture of Lincoln, and on others the picture of an Indian, but you have none that you can find with the picture of a girl. Look at the Indian again carefully. Take a bit of paper and cover up the feathers so you can just see the face. Doesn't it look like a girl's face? It is, and there is a story about it, too. The little girl's name was Sarah, and she lived in Philadelphia. Her father worked in the mint, the place where the money is made. One day some Indians visited their city. They wore their blankets and headdress. Sarah's father invited them to his house. One of the big Indian chiefs liked Sarah so well that he took off his headdress of feathers and put it on her. She looked so nice that an artist who was there made a sketch of her wearing the bright-colored feathers. Not long after, a new design for the pennies was needed. Sarah's father engraved the sketch of his little daughter in the chief's headress. He sent it to the men who were to choose the pattern. These men thought that this was the best of all those that were offered; so Sarah's picture went on the new shining coins.

No, he felt, it pea Ne it would never lo for him to run’ away and leave the Negro master of the field, much as the situation exasperated him. He ‘began pacing the room, his body swaying with the motion of the train. He began to ack himself, should he be angry? He confessed to himself that it was he who had storted the discussion, and that the Negro, at no time, hed been disre- spectful. Indeed, he felt a sort of fascination for the frank and cour- teous bearing of the man. — This min, he knew, ‘as telling the truth. - Why, he asked himself, should he be’ angry at hearing the truth? In the analysis many points between right and poliey in the treatment of the Negro dawned up- on him. The more coneretely he saw the amutier the: less he liked the stand he had always taken. In this thoughtful vein ke re-umed his Seut, lit another cigurette and re- lapsed into thought. After a few minutes he demanded, as he flicxed the ashes from his cigareite with ni- finger: “Am I to assume, then, thac Prejudice uzuinet the Negro'is a distinctly American trait?” “No,” responded the other who had been furtively watching the play of emotions on his face. “Color Prejudice, or, more- strictly, color egotism, is not a purely Anierican ait.

ABBOTT, edi M tor and publisher of the Chi- cago Defender, made a trip to South: America in February and re- turned in May. He has written a series of vividly descriptive articles on the merits and demerits of his adventures. Brazil is Mr. Abbott's fighting piece, He urges immigration 1 Brazil—not_a “wholesale exodus,” but “the Negro with a trade o1 profession, who has some money and desires to go into, business.” It is a compliment to the North American Negro ‘that he has pro- duced an editor able to take such a trip, The South Americans must have been’ well impressed, indeed with our eeonomie climbing. Negr pewspapes men have a hard row to 08. But Mr. Abbott's mind seems to travel in a curious circle. He seems to be wrapped up in “social free- dom,” or “social expansion"—yet he likes this country, admittedly. He says: . “In Brazil neither commercial nor social restrictions attach themselves to any man on account of race.” Again: “It was a delight beyond words to have observed the social life of the Negro, say, in Brazil, where, un. trammeted by any racial feeling, he is climbing higher and higher in the |seale of achievement.” Yet: “The base of the future achieve- ments of the Negro will remain, as now, in the United States.” Mr, Abbott seems to be halted be- tween two opinions. ‘This apparent. ly is what he would like to see in America: “ «+» “But today even in this: town, slavery has left no social inconveni- ences for the Negro. More, the white sons and daughters of these former slave holders have intermar- ried and mixed freely with thor who are the descendants of slaves.” Vee know that to a great extent this is (rue in the United States, but it was never popularly legal and is hot now at all customary.

Did he come from the south? Where'd he learn enough to be a minister?” “No, he's no southern black. He came from the north, just as you and I did, but I don’t know where. All I know is he's a real man.” : At another time, when telling. of Paul Cuffee, the Negro Sea Cap- tain, he wrote: Shortly after the close of the American Revolution a group of people in'New England stood on a teharf and looked at a saling vessel that had just come in from the open sea, “That's Cuffee’s boat,” said one of the men. “He's a strong man; and a ood sailor. He comes and goes and fie always wins jn from storm and dangert” “Aye and he always makes for jorts where money is to be gained,” faughed the other man. “Unless I am mistaken he is pil- ing up a fortune.” “Whatevertelse he is, he's a true man,” came the answer. “He isa man of religion, a Friend, and not one of these rip-roaring ’ captains that come in from the sea, and do little except drink and gamble and carouse.” “Aye, black though he ie, he is a real iman."” The one of whom they were speaking, Paul Cuffee, the master of the ship that had just come to an- chor, was indeed a remarkable man, one of the most remarkable men in the history of the United States.” Thousands of white boys and girls read these sketches evert-marning.

IN WRITING, MENTION THIS PAPER a ‘One-of- the-hardest things for any Jone to do is to choosé the business lor profession that he: should enter moa for his career in Uke. hi it young man may be highly fitted to make a good doctor, but has no qualifications at all for a lawyer and vice versa, Another may have all the natural qualifications neces- sary to make an efficient merchant. but may be incapable of succeeding as a Testatrant proprietor. We might go through the whole calen- dar of professions, trades, and the different kind of. businesses and find that where one is fully qualified by natural personal attainments te enter a certain profession, trade or ‘business,, that he may in no wise be qualified for somé other profession, trade or business. It oftens happens that one chooses and enters upon a career that he from natural qualifications is. in- capable of carrying on. After hay- ing. wasted a number of years, he finds that he cannot succeed in the career that he has selected, and must abandon it and take up some- thing else. In such a case, time capital and energy have been los: and can never be regained. It .is therefore important that one gets the right start. To select the profession, businets trade or employment that one is best suited to pursue. is by no means ar ea.y task. Nearly every person al sometime has shown special quali. fications for a certain kind of voca. tion. When thtse tendencies are shown, they should be heeded. It is true that training along cer tain lines fits one for certain careers but where one has natural qualifiea- tions to whichis added special train- ing for a profession, business o1 trade, it makes success easf to at- tain and the career more brilliant ____ THIRTEEN =FINANCE imms, L. L. D. ’ Blue Book, etc. You no doubt know of many fin- stances where men have had every advantage that edieation and trains ing could afford, but could not guc-. ceed along the lines they Havel chosen, while on the other hand yor may know of men whose educational training is very limited, and shsg opportunities to succced have. not been at all encouraging, yet. thése men are meeting with great sic cess—making wonderful progresssin spite of their handicaps. Such men have natural qualifieations for .the careers chosen, and’such is usugily the case where one has been fqr~ tunate to choose the right career, OF course it door not follow that unless one has natural ability ig-aid him that he cannot succeed. E@vca~ tion and special training will At a man for almost any undertaking, But no amount of education or train= ing is ever equal to natural attain- ments. Musicians, orators, raat lawyers, surgeons, great financicrs, and the world's foremost leaders are born, not made. ' So every one who cortemplates entering upon any kind of a career should ascertain whether he bas natural qualifications for doing the thing-that-he has chosen. Every man'to his own-calling. If you ¢an be satisfied that you are naturally qualified to do.a. certain thing, you have a great advantage. over the person who cannot make a definlte decision, Follow the natural hendof your mind when you are tryingito decide what you shall do, and Wordiot enter any profession, business-‘or trade because you know of some ones else who is succesiing in that pay- ticular line. i Consider carefully your natugal attainments, your training did mental tendencies to assist yougin deciding un the career that you sigill enter. a --- SYRACUSE, N.

Girl Attacked By Taxi Driver And Companion Hallowe'en Ends in Tragic Experience for Girl, Two Men Being Held, Seek Third. BALTIMORE, Md., Nov. 8. Charged by Miss Maud Brown of brutally assaulting her in a lonely spot on the Franklin road, two of three men involved were held for the action of the Grand Jury without bail by Magistrate Ranft in the Northwestern Police Station Thursday. The men held were Richard Boone, 526 McMechan street, and Richard Babb, 1332 N. Stockton street. A third man involved in the affair is being sought by the police. The alleged assault occurred as the termination of Harvey Brown's called a taxi to take her home from an after midnight dance. According to her testimmy she engaged the taxi together with Miss Isdorea Nixon, 18, 309 W. Biddle street, to take them home. The three men first went by a garage for a supply of gasoline and then took the Nixon girl home first. After riding a few minutes in the machine Miss Brown stated that she had a suspicion that the men were not taking her directly home and told them so. They stated that they would take her home at first, but when they kept on driving she protested and asked to be let out of the car so that she could take a taxi. By this time the men had reached a lonely place on the Franklin road and stopped the car, telling the woman their intentions and threatening her with death if she refused. She made an attempt to leave the machine, but was manhandled by the three men, each of them accomplishing their purpose. She was then thrown from the car and reported the matter to the police, who upon her description arrested two of the men still driving the car. Frances E. W. Harper The Frances E.

Grand Jury Urges Probe of Whipping Grand Jury Urges Probe of Whipping Body Attacks - Alabama Governor for Blocking Investigation of Mutiny BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 8. After returning an indictment against Warden J. D. Evans charging assault and battery and attacking Governor Brandon for what was termed use of the armed forces of the state to block an investigation of a mutiny at Banner mines, the Jefferson county grand jury today in its report to the court urged that the succeeding body "go to the bottom" of conditions at Banner. The records before the grand jury showed that Warden Evans was in charge of the leased convicts at Banner mines before the mutiny on September 10, it was stated. The state convict board's "book of punishments" which was offered in evidence before the grand jury contained a report that 17 leaders of the trouble were given a total of 302 lashes. The whipping strap, a four-foot leather instrument, also was in evidence. FIFTEEN Race Officer in Italy Displays Real Fortitude TURIN, Italy, Nov. 8. (By A. N.

Albergo, Negro officer of the Italian army, during an operation for injuries sustained when bombs were exploded before Premier Mussolini. When Albergo's hand was blown off, he cried out: "Long live Mussolini." Italy's fair play toward her Negro soldiers produces such loyalty. Children Suffocated When Fire Wrecks Home ST.

It is Armistice Day. Without discussing how far we are from World Peace, and without any reference to the fighting now going on in Europe, we may be pardoned if we say our celebration is slightly premature. Armistice Day will never take its place in history until the World war is closed—to remain closed for all time: Men are not enthusiastic about going to war any more for Democracy, and ah ephemeral World Peace which does not follow the cessation of battle. We have been listening now since 1918 for the peace predicted and the Humanity promised when our boys were sailing away to the tune of “Over There.” Memories are not so fleeting when filled with broken pledges and promises made with wild abandon. Men and women who aided-in the winning of the war are awaiting to enter into the peace they gave their all. to insure. The colored soldiery of the country will march—with irregular and scattered ranks. They, of all men who braved the Germans. ar¢ the most disappointed. Many of them mis- interpreted Democracy, while others hoped for Utopian days when it was all over. These disappointments express-them- selves in an indifference all too prevalent. This country could do no greater service to its soldiery than to reassure it, all alike—that the ideals and objectives of their govern- ment are always worth fighting for—yea, dying for. A little more of the practical Democracy will make Armistice Day meati what the boys thought it meant on November 11, 1918.

Dalilinger ‘PUnitea States are today practically all changing aie Wins the Htlitccceh bvoy he talk pe nigh Sec OR + Stacia lr ag oie Mead ep tech atari lye tt ‘To those who have always lived and had their being within the limits of Pittsburgh, the welfare of the city has been of absorbing intcrest. As they look back over the years that are past, they cannot help realizing that Pittsburgh’s development and improvement have been wonderful. Yet when they become critical they see at once that there is still room for further improvement. __ The city has a number of important railways center- ing here which are helping to inereace not only its ma- terial prosperity and wealth, but are also largcly in- strumental in increasing the culture and refinement, and the health and happiness of the people. The rail: ways, however well they may be managed, and however beneficial they are to the community, in_dne respect at least, have not been, conducted entirely Zor the best in- terest of the public, nor have they kept abreast of the times. They still use coal, and that largely of the bituminous variety, although there is a city ordinance forbidding its use in locomotives while pasg.ng through the municipality or while being shunted about in the railway yards. The whistle of the engines, the din of their bells and the smoke and cinders and dust emitted and blown about by the wind, often disfiguring the land scape for long distances, are as bad now as they were thirty years age. The dust and the smoke still disfigure the exterior of the houses and penetrate into the unter- ior to the great damage of the houses ard their con- tents, and to the injury of the health of the occupants. The cost of living in Pittsburgh has greatly increased as a result. If the railways were operated by electricity, all this loss and discomfort would be avoided. Why then have they not been electrified so far as they are oper ated in the Pittsburgh district ? a Electricity as a motive power on steam railways has been in successful operation in the United States and Europe for at least a score of years. The electrification of steam railways, particularly in this country, is grow- ing every year. In 1910 there were-in the United States and Canada 873 miles- of track so operated, which in 1920 has Increased to 3,370, The leading railways of the been ordered to return to their po- sitions.

WEEE NV 1924, CA Snited States are today practically all changing some portion of their lines to electric motive power, A ma- Jority ofthe railways entering the large Eastern cities ‘ure electrified so far as the portion operated within the limits of those cities is concerned. ‘The principal railways entering Pittsburgh are the Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio, and the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie. These companses are, all connected with railways which have lines in other’ places where elec- tric motive power is used. The trains ou the, Penngy/- vania in prokubly all its entrances into New York City are propelled by’ electricity, and the company’s Phils: delphia connections are also largely so operated. The New York Central, which controls the Pittsburgh & Lake Ente, is electrified in New York City and in other cities and towns in the state of New York. Why then has Pittsburgh, where the freight tonnage is so-enor- mous and profitable as to cause comment in other places, been neglected? ~ Electricity as a motive power on the street railways in Pittsburgh has been in use for many years and no property along their lines is damaged by smoke or cin- ders or dust, nor is the health of the occupants affected by-the shriek of whistles or the din of bells. It has been argued for the steam railways that they are oper- ated over their own private rights of way which dis- tinguishes them from the street railways. But does it, so far as the smoke and dirt and din emitted by their locomotives is concerned? Then why not begin a move- ment for a change in this particular? Does not the city Possess the power to regulate the railways operated within its Timite? There is already a strong sentiment in favor of such a change and all that is necessary is that it be aroused. Strong representations in regard to the matter should be made to the proper officials. ‘Then it will become their duty to bring it about, and they will no doubt willingly undertake the task if backed by public sentiment. If once accomplished, it would mean a cleaner, brighter, healthier, happier place to live in. Property would erthance in value and the cost of jiving be reduced.

Science is the accumulated and accepted knowledge systematized and formulated with reference. to the discovery of general truths or the operation of general.laws. Re: ligion deals with faith, worship and belief. Science deals with the study of the material world and the trans- formation of energy from which may be‘ deduced mechanical,” ther- mal, electrical and chemical phe- nomena. In the teaching of science every phenomena or law is a log- ical Sequence from the inductive and deductive reasoning of accumulated data. In the Christian religion the priests, ministers or preachers as the case may be. get hold of the child and confront it with all of the end products of the philosophy of the childhood of the worl, God and the soul, heaven and heli, angels, spirits, the mysteries of the Trin- ity, Resurrection and what not, al- most before it ean walk. Philoso- phies are the epitomized expressions of the understanding of the age in which they originated and are not. suited as stepping stones from which a totally immature or unedu- cated mind can leap to the inherit- ance of ages. It leaps rather into chaos and absurdity and philoso- phies are apt to convey meanings a3 remote from the original idea as the conception of energy or force from that of the Deity. From early times man has been trying to transform energy and has boasted and gloritied in his physical strength. He,takes pride in this force as the ultimate arbiter. Chris- tianity since the time of Christ has inculeated the opposite creed and is iargely used by civilized nations as the ostensible principle of their in- ternal private relationships, but. it has never been adopted by any na- tion in its international" relation- ships. The principle of force as ul- timate arbiter in international quar- rels has remained: unchallengesh and trom this standpoint Christianity is an-absolute failure. Science hay mul- tiplied man’s powers many fold, and increased his capacity both of’ con- struction-and destruction. Religion surely hes not decreaved his powers for destruction and doubtless has aided him'much in his powers -of construction. So, in this respect, as in others, they stil are vastly lit- ferent, and if religion is to be an effective agency in the future it must be adapted to suit the condl- ems of the time. Philosophies, cod2s, politica! sys- ‘tems and’ religions must follow the lead of science and range themselves From Among The Best ‘The Negro press:has had its say about C.

It is given out that the President has no confident, no inseparable com- panion, bat that he flocks by himself and consults himself about men and affairs, and that Mr. Slemp so far dislikes this sort of thing that he is thinking of stepping down as Secretary to the President when the first favorable opportunity will allow him to do so with becoming grace and other things. This attitude of the Presidential Sphynxism must not only be surprising, but very painful to Mr. Slemp, with whom we are unable to sympathize a little bit because he ceased to symipathize with us after'he became a millionaire, and did not care to serve his Virginia constituents in Congress any longer and did not, consequently, need any Afro- American votes. : Has Mr. C.

October 27, Sin it is known Senator Underwood has presidential aspirations, his statemei is puzzling. In an editor-al in the Birmingham Reporter we get our folk viewpoint, as follows: When the friends of Mr. Underwood started him out on his long ang tedious journey for the presidency of the United States, it did not strike the public mind.as a very sincere movement and opinions were advanced, many to the effect that Mr. Underwood would not aecept the call. None, regardless of their opposition to the Senator, will for a moment question his ability nor his grasp onthe members of his party, nor the high esteem in which he is held by statesmen generally of the nation. And but for the section from which he comes, Mr. Underwood no doubt would go into the convention in 1924 almost without opposition. But he is a Southern’ product and must carry into the convention all of its ills and sus- picions, its: skeptical notions and its disregard for law and order —a mighty big lond to say the least. : ‘The colored race has not thought very kindly of Mr. Under- ood since his uncompromising and vigorous attack on the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill, The Dyer Anti-Lynching bill is a measure directed at the wickedness of the South, the birthplace of savage evil. Mr. Underwood fought in protection of his section, pleading always that it wax a local matter and should be left in the hands of the several states. ‘The utterance, of Senator Underwood in his Texan address is a long step forward in an effort to save our nation from riots, . lynchings and the gorilla proceedings in the administration of our laws by self-constituted authority. - It is not to be understood that we are moved to.these expres sions because Senator Underwood happens to bey aentherner oa Alabama Senator and hails from our city, Birmingham, but the same measure of thought would be forthcoming if any man of the South or of the tiation had spoken as did Senator Underwood. Yet we know that to eradicate these Southern evils the program must begin with Southern men. 7 | EDITORIAL = ia se a COOLIDGE OPNON ~ 'T was Richard T. Ely who said “Peopic «2, ;, lacks.
