BB. Du Bois in the July number of the New York Crisis Mr, MeKay charges Dr, Du Rois with leaping out of his sphere in the May number of (har magazine to sneer at she Russian revolution. In reply, Dr. Du Bois auukes some remarks, which to thy average reader wil be astounding and whieh will Lond to cool the ardor of some of our young amen, who saw in Socialism a “cure-all” for all v. our political and social ailments, Dr. Du Boix says We aro qware that some of om friends have been disappointed win ‘tho Crisis during and sinee the wa.

On the contrary, time may prove, as he believes, that the Russian Revolution is the greatest event of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and its leaders the most un selfish prophets. At the same tims ‘The Crisis does not know this to be true. Russia is ineredibly vast, and the happenings there in tie last five years have been intricate to a degree that must make any student pause, We sit, therefore, with waiting hands and listening ears, seeing some splen: did results from Russia, like the car: toons for public education recently exhibited in America, and hearing ot other things which frighten us ? Dr, Du Bols makes a clear and un mistakable distinction between what he believes and what he knows. In doing this, he is ultra conservative and “gets no-where.” SUI, we ad- mire his judgment in doing this. We are frank to say that we do not share in his optimistic views relative to New Russia and its new leaders. He makes statement as follows though, with which every colored person in this country can agree. We are moved neither by the super- ficial omniscience of Wells nor tho ve ports in the Now York ‘Times; bm this alone we do know: that the in mediate work for the American Ne «ro lies in America and not, in Rus sia. and this, too, In spite of the fact that the ‘Third “Internationale has made a pronouncement which cannut but have our entire sympathy. “The Communist {nternationale onca forever breaks with the traditions of the Second Internationale which in reality only recognized the white race. ‘The Communist Internationale makes it its task to emancipate the workers of the entire world. The ranks of the Communist Internationale fraternal: Jy unste men of all colors: white, yel low and black—the toilers of the en: tire world.” He ther denis with fundamental principles of the whole discussten, when he says: Despite Unis dere come to us black men two Insistent questions: What today the right. program of socialism? ‘The editor of ‘Tho Crisis considers himself a Soctalist but he does not believe that German Stee Socialism or the dictatorship of the proletariat aro perfect minacess.

Respectfully JOHN R, WILLIAMS FERED L. J. HAYDEN Manufacturer of Pure Herk Medicines 220 W. Broad, Richmond FOUR THE NATIONAL RACE CONGRESS The American Negro faces a most peculiar and critical situation in this country; a situation which calls for a careful and painstaking consideration of all the data and phenomena affecting his welfare. It is alarming that the race has no Declaration of Principles, no Race Creed of action, no organized defenses against the widespread discrimination and injustice perpetrated against him daily in his civic, economic and social life. As a result many No groups are without hope, others are becoming discounted and thousands are rapidly turning from the characteristic patience which has hitherto dominated the life of the race. It is difficult for the human mind to imagine anything but disaster to come from such a changing order undirected by safe counsel and same leadership. The situation calls for the united action of the virilio, sane and potent leaders; it renders a challenge to the manhood and womanhood of the race for a national program of con-orted action. The National Race Congress faces the challenge to assemble in Washington, D.C., May 3—6, 1922, the race leaders of America; including labor leaders, lodge leaders, church leaders, leaders of civic organizations, leaders of women's clubs and other race men and women to institute a National Race Policy and to draft a definite aggressive and Nationwide program for the future welfare of our people. Such a united force will be felt—a united Negro voice will be heard. You are urged to be present at this meeting and to take membership with this organization. Will you send me a list of leaders in your community to be invited? Your cooperation and support in every way are very respectfully solicited. yours MARSHALL A. TALLEY, Executive Secretary, 1318 Broad St., Selma, Ala W. H. JEENIGAN, Pres. National Headquarters, Washington, D. C. TULSA DOCTORS RELIEF FUND Next Session Louisville, Kentucky August 28, 23, 25 and 26, 1921 Office of President 1302 South 18th Street, Philadelphia, Pa. June 28, 1921. To the New York Dental and Pharma To the Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical profession, of the United States. All of us were horror stricken a few days ago to read accounts of the terrible calefaction that befell the colored citizen of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Indescribable suffering has been, and is being experienced by these victims of mob ruse. Our professional men of Tulsa, from all accounts, were eagerly sought prey of the mob. Dr. Andrew C. Jackson who had been active in local, state and national medical societies was wantonly murdered. The Oklahoma Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association which is affiliated with the National Medical Association has initiated what is known as the Tulsa Doctors Relief Fund. An appeal has been sent out by them requesting every physician, dentist and pharmacist to immediately send a contribution to Dr. Guess, 421 1—2 East Fifth Street, Okmulge, Okla. Dr. Guess is secretary of the State Association. As President of the National Medical Association, I am appealing to the members of the three professions whether members of our Association or not to immediately contribute to the Tulsa Doctors Relief Fund. JOHN P. TURNER President National Medical Association EVANGELIST W. H. SKIPWITH IN BROOKLYN. Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church, Howard and Herkimer Streets, Dr. J. W. Haralin, Pastor We are in the midst of one of the greatest revivals it has been our privilege since I have been pastor. The Rev. W. H. Skipwith, D. D., National and International preacher, and singer of Richmond, Va., and exwhere else is with us and well deserves the credit and honor of being the best all around Evangelist of our race. Among the many things to be greatly admired in Dr. Skipwith is, he is not full of self, but meek, unassuming, congenial, plain and practicable in delivering the truth, convincing and persuasive in argument then again he is a great help to a pastor, for twenty years this young, giant has been going over the length and breadth on this country, and I have never heard of him trying to undermine, any pastor out of his church, therefore a pastor can be sick or well, at home or abroad, and feel perfectly satisfied with this man of God, this great evangelist, Dr. Skipwith in his pupil. A man of this kind is worth having brethren. We are having conversions at each service. Baptizing next Sunday. IDEAL NOTES Mr. A. W. Holmes, Supreme Master of the National Ideal Society visited Washington District recently to witness the closing of the Membership Campaign. Many members were added to the Order. The Ideals and friends of the East End District turned out in great numbers to the Anniversary Exercises of the Nursery Department, which was held on the second Sunday in June at the 4th Baptist church. The program was an excellent one. The vacant chair and poem, dedicated to our late lamented co-worker and president of the Nursery Department, Mrs. Roca Thompson, deserves special mention. Thompson, deserve special mention. The Ideal Office Force motored to Ellerson, Va., on June 12th to be pressent at the exercises of Guilding Star Nursery No. 1 and Living Beauty No. 113, which were greatly enjoyed by all. The Deputy, Mrs. Mary Liggon deserves great credit for the work, which she is doing in Hanover. The Deputy of the South Side, Mrs. Saille B. Cogbill, held a great children's meeting at the First Baptist church on the 1st Sunday in July. The Satureno Master and others were present and made good talks. The Lodges of Richmond will host their Annual Thanksgiving at the 5th Street Baptist Church on the 3rd Sunday in July at 3:30 P. M. An excellent program is being prepared.

If the digestive organs are not properly performing the work which nature has assigned to them, then nutrition, which is absolutely essential to the recovery of other diseased parts, will be lacking and there can be no permanent relief. When bodily nutrition is normal, the stomach digests the food, the blood absorbs and carries the nourishment to the different parts of the body, causing the various organs to properly perform their functions. Nature has provided a remedy in the ingredients of Argo-Phosphate, the new herbal stomach remedy, which is now being introduced here. It is purely vegetable and its vitalizing, corrective and reconstructive qualities are so pronounced that beneficial results are noticed from the first day. That this is true, it is only necessary to listen to the statements made daily by local people who have given Argo-Phosphate a fair trial and have been benefited thereby. It is dispensed by all druggists. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND, VIRGINIA M. S. K. DR. ALBERT A. TENNANT, GRAND MEDICAL REGISTRAR. [Name not provided] Rev. Thomas H. White, Grand Prelate 1 William H.
