LETTER OF EXPLANATION Mr. E. T. Summytt, Secretary, Missouri Negro Rep. League Club, 3434 Market St. St. Louis, Mo. Dear Sir: I regret exceedingly that I was not able to attend the meeting last evening at the Tabernacle Baptist Church called by your organization to take action concerning the Ku Klux Klan. It is so seldom, due to its congregational, that I can come to St. Louis, where I am here my time is so crowded with engagements pertaining to my duties as a Member of Congress, that often it is not possible for me to keep all of my appointments. Everything possible should be done to suppress and destroy the Ku Klux Klan. It is anti-Negro, anti-Catholic anti-Jew, and anti-Allen. It appeals to prejudices and hatreds. It has for its own sake a secret and inadmissible organization within the Government of the United States. Its chief aim is perpetuating race prejudice and religious persecution, and I am opposed to any body and any organization that does that. I have recently prepared for introduction in the Congress, a resolution to investigate fully and completely the matter so that legislation may be enacted so that we can with a full knowledge of all the facts, that will put an end to some. I am glad to work with you and those who believe as I do regarding this matter. I enclose a copy of the Resolution that the Congress will be called upon to consider. With kind regards and best wishes, I remain. Yours very sincerely, L. C. DYER.

Clemenss of 100 per cent Americanism operates, it would be to their advantage to hear from one who amongst of us consider ideal American, Abraham Lincoln, who typifies all that is great and good in real and honest Americanism. He had cause over seventy years ago to give utterance to the following letter to his friend, Joshua P. Fagan in contemplation of a similar organization. "I am not a Know-Nothing, that is certain. How could I be? How can anyone who abhors the oppression of Negroes favor the degrading of classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation we began by declaring that all men are created equal. We now practically read it "All men are created equal except Negroes. When the Know-Nothings get control it reads: All men are created equal except Negroes and foreigners and Catholics. When it comes to this I shall prefer no pre-tease of loving liberty—to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be baked pure without the base alloy of hypocrisy."

ROBBER TRAPPED WITH BOOTY Treasure From Saint's Curse, Stolen Last November, Recovered by Clever Police Work. The historic Thirteenth century treasure of St. Elizabeth from Hungary, which was stolen from the saint's shrine at Martburg last November, has been recovered, according to the Berlin correspondent of the London Times, after having been buried in the back garden of a London suburban house. The recovery is due to the vigilance of the Frankfort police. Six men took part in the robbery last November, and five of them were arrested soon after. There was, however, no sign of the stolen treasure, and the men obstinately denied all knowledge of it. Eventually, the police got up to the track of the sixth man, Emil Kellman. It was found that in the meantime he had been to London; he was watched, however, and on his return the inquiry of the detective led the police to believe that Kellman had hidden the jewels in England. It was assumed that if he were set free, he would probably get them. He was therefore let on ball; at the same time he was kept under strict but secret surveillance by the police. On June 15 Kellman went to London to fetch the jewels and on his return a few days ago he was reattracted at Cleren on the German Dutch frontier, where he was taken red-handed with the missing jewels and pearls. 174 in number, hidden in his clothes. SURELY HAD HUBBY TRAINED Little Man Knew His Helpmset's Whistle and, So to Speak, Governed Himself accordingly. The time was Saturday, 5.30 p. m., the place, a local movie house, the girl, a large, robust middle-aged woman. Rushing up to one of the ushers in the foyer she excitedly cried: "Say, boy I left my husband in here while I went shopping. Our car leaves in five minutes and he ain't out here. Don't want to buy a ticket; how can I get him?" "We aren't allowed to page any one" replied the usher, "but if you describe him perhaps I can find him." The woman apparently did not hear a word he said. "Do you care if I whistle for him?" she asked. Thinking she was only joking he said: "Go to it." Immediately a shrill and weird whistle stirred the quiet audience. A meek little man sitting well toward the front jumped as though shot, bolted up the alley, appeared in the fog and merely ran in the wake of the robust woman who was rapidly making trucks for the inferurban station—Indianapolis News. Are We Living Off a Coal Bin? Flory W. Porsons exiles—in the World's Work: From the time we rise until the day is done we maintain an intimate association, either with coal itself or one of its by-products. The leavening agent in our bread and the gas we bake it with are from coat; so are the agents that tan our shoes and that vulcanize the rubber of our automobile tires. We are intended to coil for the various forms of ammonia that go into fertilizing, refrigerating, electric batteries and household uses; for aspirin, salicylic acid and many other cures for common colds; for elements used in manufacturing, insulating, coatings, photographic records and pipestems; for benzol, the best available fuel for automobile and internal-combustion engines; for food preservatives, mothballs and disinfectants. While coal furnishes us plastic acid and trifatrolotol, it also carries locked in itself oil of wintergreen and the most delicate flavoring extracts and perfumes. Sir Rlder Haggard has revealed to the world that that valiant warrior and strategist "Umslopogans" is not a more creature of imagination. He was a Swazi chieftain, of high, and noble lineage, who had been a warrior before he took service under the British flag. Years after Sir Rlder had enshrined the chief in action, the racer was mentioned to him, and Umslopogans expressed his delight that Lundanda (Sir Rlder Haggard) had written a book to show that once there was a Zulu people with mighty kings. But who was "She" and where did "She" come from? Years ago it was suggested that Sir Rlder got his inspiration from Moore's "Epicurean"; he denied the allegation, but he never told her real origin. It is better so—"She" was spun of the web of mystery. Man Wants but Little; But Woman— Alice went with her brother, Ben, to see her first boxing exhibition. Through the entire set of previews she set with a blase air of a regular boxer fan. Then when the main battle began she pulled with the best, of them, in the seventh round of the battle there was a surprise in the form of a knockout. The crowd went wild. Alice cheered and cheered. After a time, she and Ben pushed their way through the crowd to the street. "Well, how did you like it?" Ben asked. "It was wonderful!" Alice enthused. "But I never saw anyone act so sitter. They might as Best have given one encore." Usually what happens is that the suffering community courageously undertakes the task of reconstruction. The flood is called an "act of God," and confidence is felt that there will be no repetition of the calamity. But the conditions that gave rise to the disaster continue to exist, and such being the case, there is no assurance that it will not report itself. If the catastrophe that overwhelmed the city of Pueblo is not to be repeated, again and yet again perhaps, preventive measures must be adopted. Dams must be built and reservoirs constructed at the headwaters of the Arkansas river to impound its floods. The government reclamation service polls out that floods not less destructive might occur if any year on the Rio Grande if the waters of that stream were not held in leash by the great Elephant Burr Dam. Before that dam, with its vast reservoir, was constructed, flood tide and again wreaked havoc in the vicinity of El Paso. The Elephant Butte dam is one of the greatest engineering works on the globe. It is 306 feet high, nearly one-third of a mile long, and creates the largest irrigation reservoir in the world an artificial lake covering 63 square miles and averaging 70 feet in depth. The water contained in the reservoir would cover the whole state of Connecticut to a depth of ten inches. Development of similar works on the headwaters of the Arkansas river would not only prevent future floods, but would store water for irrigating hundreds of thousands of acres, and furnish water power for all the manufacturing industries in that part of the country. NOTHING "SOFT" ABOUT THIS Heavy Outfit and Intense Heat Make Life Miserable for Sentries at Buckingham Palace. A reporter of the London Daily News writing sketches of the heat wave is especially sorry for the sentries outside of Buckingham palace. Their plight, he writes, would have melted the heart of Mr. Winston Churchill could he have seen them. In the full glare of the sun, clad in thick serge trousers, heavy scarlet tunics, with tight belts and bearskin bushes, the guardmen stood perspiring and half stifled. Their outlook was upon a roadway stained with oil and reckoning of petrol, flaring beds of scarlet germinules, scorched brown grass and the shimmering heat reflecting, copper work surmounting the Victoria memorial. The fountain was not playing and the surroundings were as devoid of coolness as an alfalfa plain. One almost expected to see scurrying tarantulas and lizards. It was tropical military service in English kit. Small Clouds on Jupiter, Prof. W. H. Picklergrig, in a recent address before the British Astronomical association, recalled the fact that during his observations at Arequipa he noticed that the surface of Jupiter, instead of being composed of uniform bands of yellowish white or brown, really consisted of an enormous number of extremely minute reddish brown 'bonds' seen upon a perfectly white background. The effect of belts was produced where the cloudlets were numerous, and the light spaces where they were scarce. He compared the appearance of these spots to the well-known "lice geauls" on the sun. Their length lay in the direction of rotation of the planet. He said he had since observed the cloudlets in Jamaica, and they have been seen in England by Phillips and Stevenson.—Scientific American. American newspapers are spending considerably more on their service ahead than for parallel service in America. Who knows, better the future, the newspapers are interested in than the managing editors who authorize this. Any event of more than local interest in Europe cells the American journals to the spot. For example, one morning we stock in London, I strolled into a British labor congress. I met there in American newspapers, and but three or four British. Let any teen he start in Ireland and even New York paper will have its men on the scene inside of twelve houses. If he is not there already. All ever Europe stationed at strategic centers, is the American correspondent within reaching distance of anything that may happen.—From the New Republic. On Sunday mornings the men of Agana are exercised in military drill, which is compulsory for all the abebied men within certain age limits. While they have a standard or uniform dress, this is worn only on special occasions. Yet dress pads are a truly dignified affair, for the youth maintain that erect and self-reliant carriage which is so characteristic of native races. Occasionally a most interesting drill is witnessed of the "carabao cavalry" as it is called, although the mounts are not water buffalo but domestic cattle. All through the day the bells tell the time as on shipboard and bugles sound the calls that direct the military life of the station. Again at 7 o'clock in the evening the muscians assemble at the bandstand and play classical and other selections for an hour, while the officers and their families stroll about. in the cool of the evening. RELIEF FOR HEAT SUFFERERS English Savant Who Probably Knows Offers Some Advice on the Problem of Keeping Cool. The obvious expedient of avoiding exposure to the sun, "stimulating" foods and drinks, and the use of dark and heat-retaining garments is not always sufficient to keep the human body cool. In spite of these precautions, many persons suffer from heat languor ("thermal debility"), to the detriment of their health and efficiency. It is nearly one hundred years since the Sileshn peasant Priessnitz reintroduced the curative use of cold. One of his procedures was to immerse the back of his head in a shallow vessel of cold water. We know now that 'external cold is a powerful stimulant to the nerve centers at the base of the brain, which govern the heart and breathing and regulation of body heat. In hot summers heat is insidiously piled up in the tissues, and sometimes thermal disability passes on to thermal fever or "heat stroke." Anybody may prove for himself the refreshing coolness produced by bathing the nape of the neck and the spine and the inner side of the arms-with ice-cold water. As regards the prevention and cure of heat-stroke, the experience of the troops in hot climates has shown the same efficacy of cold when applied on a more extensive scale.-From a Letter in the London Times. Saved by His Cuffs. "There's a superstition personified," said the tailor, as he nodded in the direction of an elderly man who was being fitted for a suit. "He's so superstitious that he wears cuffs on the trousers of his dress suit to do with superstition?" the tailor was asked. "That man claims that cuffs on his trousers have saved him hundreds of dollars during his life and he refuses to go without them now, even in evening clothes," the tailor retorted. "Once he said he dropped a diamond ring somewhere and thought he had lost it until he got home that night and discovered it in the cuff of his trousers. Another time he lost a scarf pin, which he also later found in the same place. After several other similar instances the old man came to believe that cuffs were good luck and now, despite my pleadings, he insists on wearing them." "Speaking of service," exclaimed the travelling man as he stood in front of one of the telephone booths in the Pennsylvania station, the New York Sun reports, "and consideration of the public. You'd never get that any where except in New York." "Well," grinned a guard who was standing by, "we strive to please, so when we found that some folks were too short to reach the telephone if they were high, and others had to almost bend double to talk over them if they were low, we decided we'd have 'em arranged accordingly. So we have some for the tall guys and some for the little dolls, and a few that both can use as they've got stools before them to sit on if you're lucky enough to get one." Venerable Ministers. Dr. Oliver S. Hakel of New York in the audibility for the statement that there are 30 ministers more than albeit years of age in active service in the Methodist Episcopal church. The oldest is the Rev. Seth Reed of Flint, Mich., who is ninety-eight, while another is nearly ninety-seven and three are ninety-twelve. A new theory about the origin of the American flag is told by the writer of the By the Way column in the London, Dally Express. It is sent by a correspondent evidently versed, in such matters, who expresses the opinion that the attribution of "Old Glory" to the arms of the Washington family is exploded. "It is much more probable," he writes, "that the flag of the old East India company formed the pattern. This flag seems to have been used as the official flag of the 13 original states from January, 1770, to June, 1777, when a blue canon charged with 13 stars was substituted for the canon bearing the English 'Union.' The flag then became, in substance, that of today, though stars have been added, as other states adhered to the federation." The correspondent quotes authorities. "Truth must prevail, whatever it is, but," says the columnist. "I like the story told by Newman in his address to the Brothers of Oratory. There was once an old priest, he tells us, who for years began a certain part of the service with the words: 'Quod ore mumpsimus.' One day a more learned person heard him and afterward told him that the third word should be 'sumpsimus.' The old priest admitted that it might be so, but' he added, 'I will not change my old mumpsimus for your new mumpsimus.' I like the old 'mumpsimus story associating 'Old Glory' with Sulgrave manor." EVIDENTLY HER LUCKY DAY Girl at First Thought Pickpocket Was Busy, but it Turned Out Just the Other Way. The business girl, straphanging in the subway at the rush hour, felt a gentle tug on the pocket of her raincoat. Far from being disturbed, she grinned sardonically, knowing that just exactly one dime rested in the shabby little purse resting in that particular pocket. She was so hemmed in by fellow travelers that it was difficult to discover it her suspicions were facts until she emerged with the struggling mass at her station. Then she dipped her hand lightly into the pocket only to find the ancient purse intact and in its accustomed spot. But that wasn't the only thing in the pocket. Extracting a hard substance gingerly, she stared in a daze at a roll of bills protected by an elastic band. Exhilarated and excited over this reverse state of affairs, she counted her illgotten gains and beheld, she was the richer by 30 perfectly good dollars. Whether a fellow passenger had dropped them by mistake into her pocket instead of his own or a thief placed them there fear of detection affords a wide field of speculation. Anyhow the business girl has turned the money into her college campaign fund and hopes it will not be refused as tainted money. —New York Sun: Woman, Bird Surgeon. The only woman bird surgeon in the world is Miss Virginia Pope of New York. Miss Pope treats everything from bird clump to a bird's broken leg, and she goes out at any time of night to attend her patients just as any other physician does. She is also a bird boarding house keeper, taking care of canaries and other pets whose families are out of town or need a rest from song. Just now there are 700 birds in her care, and her life is a merry one in consequence. A good many of the 700 she expects to have with her the rest of their lives. People get fired of them and bring them to Miss Pope and then forget to call for them. Of course that isn't what might be called profitable for the bird surgeon, but she takes just as good care of them as she does for her "paying guests." Her fondest hope is to have a large bird hospital with plenty of room and equipment. Three floors and a basement get crowded sometimes now. - *Figs Flourish in Poorest Soil.* Consul Homer M. Blyton of Naples writes that the production of figs for local consumption and for exportation is an important industry in southern Italy. Fresh figs are a staple article of food, especially for the poorer classes, during the season, and when dried in the sun may be kept for considerable periods of time. Of peculiar economic value is the fact that they may be grown in soil too poor for other crops. The trees are planted irregularly and frequently on steep hillsides along small terraces. In certain provinces, it is the custom for landowners to enter into an agreement with the farmer, whereby the latter plants fig trees in the inferior or waste portion of land, taking the entire crop of a stated number of years and at the end of the contract returning the land in producing condition. **Protecting the Pole.** Carelessness of automobile drivers at a sharp turn in the road between Chicago and Valparaiso has cost the lives of many persons. Five accidents occurred in one month, and each time a new telephone pole at the curve replaced the broken one. After the fifth pole had been raised and three smaller poles had been driven into the ground and wired to the larger one, one for support, the company put up a large sign which read: "Nearest hospital twenty miles. Go slow!"—Indianapolis News. REMOVAL NOTICE Attorney Homer G. Phillips announces the removal of his law office from 2233a Market street to Rooms 205-200 Midway Building, Jefferson and Olive.

SPECIAL 2 DAYS ENGAGEMENT FOR THIS MARVELOUS PRODUCTION ACCOMPANIED WITH SPECIAL MUSIC DRAKE AND WALKER'S BOMBAY GIRLS COMING TO BOOKER WASHINGTON MONDAY Drake and Walker's Bombay Girls and a jazz hand will be at the Booker Washington Theatre next week, beginning Monday night, beginning Monday night returning to St. Louis and will be welcomed with pleasure by the theatregoers. Heary Drake and his talented wife, have always been favorites here. They never fail to surround themselves with talented performers. This year they are also featuring Dinah Scott and a big chorus of Creole beauties. Their play, "The Girl from Philly," is said by critics to be absolutely the 'greatest and cleanest on the road.' The company is said to carry a card of pretty costumes and sexyness. The jazz band is a spetacular and the band will be in front of the theatre each night, before the first show. The play was written by Drake and the music arranged by I. C. Puggley, who is director of the band. There is little doubt of packed houses all next week, and wise ones will go early. There will be no advance in prices. JAMES / CRECENT PLAYERS HAVE LIVELY SHOW James Crescent, Players, at the Booker Washington this week, have a good lively show, full of "pep" and highly entertaining. "The show opens with a chorus and dance by the company. This is invaded by a song which involves a so-called 'New Telescope invention' that permits one to see into heaven. Its only a duke to allow Cinder Rucker to be introduced as really funny connelian. Roxie Caldwell and Master Fred James comes next in songs, comic sayings and dances. The diminutive art mugges up, especially in dancing. Miss Caldwell scores singing "Home again Blues." The second half of the bow is a melodrama entitled "Under the skies of Arizona" with its action on the Mexican border. Americans get miserated up with the intrigues of the senoritas and peons, and have a lively time until they shoot their way out. They must be motivated by a good interpretation of the bad man of the border, a character for whom he has long been noted. Miss Caldwell as the Indian Brave; Claude Collins as "jack"; Tillie Johnson as "Cementella"; Uhel Collins as "Rose"; and Fred James as "The Kid." all play their parts well. During the act, a Mexican dance is given by the boyhood friend by Clarence Rinker and Crawford Jackson. The entire show is good and the patrons are being well entertained. THE PICTURE THEATRES "A Giant of His Race," New All Colored Picture Crest "A Ghost of his Race," said to be the best Nogro picture ever produced and a 100 per cent entertainer, will be presented at the Jest-A-Mere fes t Sunday, Monday and Tuesday; and at the Conet on Thursday and Friday. The story runs as follows: In the valley of upper Congo, Munga with his peace-loving tribe rejoiced in the God's words under the guidance of Father Albert, Belgian Missionary and Nurby professed themselves in the just of savage urges and easily influenced by Van Buren, a Dutch Shave trader. It was a Sunday Nudy under Van Buren's bidding attacked the peace-loving tribe of Munga capturing him, and other tribesmen who were ready to American Slave Market by Van Buren. Munga and his little son were purchased by the most kind-hearted gentleman of Abamba, Col. Ceygton, and on whose plantation Munga soon earned fame. However, his last day of life had approached, he left his now grown son under the Col. Ceyg. In the year 1851, the events of which shock the South to its foundation and marked the dawn of emancipation, Munga's son, Jim who served faithfully as his father, now gained his freedom and drifted into the world for search of the knowledge and fulfillment of his ambition. At last after his hard toll, was rewarded to the degree of M. D, and beloved by young and old of his race. Then there came storm of the yellow plague which swept over the country without mercy dealing death and sorrow. With Federal General impersonal to check this epidemic which we can count in the research of a cure. With help of Nola he perfected his serum which many lives were saved and greatly rewarded by National Association of Medical Science. Now, he married Nolah and last of his wished to promote the bettermor of the social, standard of his people building better schools, churches and homes, and sacrificed his life in this purpose with his uttermost pleasure. "Carnival?" and "The Primal Law" Other Conet Features The Feature at the Conet Saturday will be "Carnival," a modern drama of Carinel's life in Venice, and was filmed in Italy on the mysteries, romantic old canals. On Sunday, Dustin Farnum will be prescheduled in "The Primal Law." The thrilling story, filled, with fierce fighting and fast action, begins with the delightful portrayal of a friendship between a big, strong man and a sentimental small boy. It is because the latter is of murderous plots that much of the fighting later occurs The entry of a charming girl from the East gives promise of a love theme and this development under difficulties in the midst of 'exciting events.

Stop, look and listen should be adopted as a maxim by the Republican party leaders in view of the activities of Negroes in politics at this time. Negroes have suffered from the well known American malady of "letting George do it" in politics, until the recent flagrant trickery of Republican administrations have become so apparent that the average Colored voter has decided it time to help "George" in the task. There is a very apparent connection between all the big Negro movements in the country, in as much as they are all evidences of an awakening interest of the masses of Colored folk in their racial status in the United States. Five years ago, the Negro man in the street knew little and thought less about his status as fixed by the Constitution of the United States; the ideals forced down the throat of all Americans for war purposes, has caused him, and, what is more important, the Negro woman, to start thinking. During the past two years, and until very recently, the mass of Negroes have been doing a lot of watchful waiting and hoping. The Pan-African Congress recently held at London composed of some of the greatest intellects in the world, regardless of race, is absolutely conclusive evidence that Colored thinkers are busily engaged and thoroughly familiar with their task of leading a subordinate race: the independent Negro political parties of Virginia and Kentucky, by their quickly acquired strength show clearly that there are appearing some clean Negro political leaders who are strong enough to get a majority support from the masses. From the point of view of awakening race consciousness and without any comparison of their direct values, the greatest examples of the new Negro's psychological trend however, are the Garvey movement and the interest of the masses in the reports of the Associated Negro Press. In their immediate causes and effects, the two organizations are as far apart as intellect and ignorance, but as examples of mass psychology, the support of both are identical. They are both evidences that the Negroes of all classes, from the cotton field to the college president's chair, are coming to be of one mind as to the inconsistencies of theory and practice in American Negro citizenship. The immediate effect can be seen in such movements as the Lincoln party. The future effect will probably be that the Democrats who have openly ignored Negroes, and secretly fought them, and many Republicans who have openly accepted them and secretly despised them, will all wake up to find one of the new political parties giving Negroes an absolutely square deal and receiving one-hundred per cent Negro support, which means oblivion for Republicans and a long slide down the same scale for Democrats: If the Republican administration cares to stop, look and listen to the signs of the times right now, tradition will go a long way to keeping Colored voters in line. Negroes are not, however, going to stand for any more dealing from the bottom of the deck; it is not the few paid Negro leaders who are watching the turn of the cards, but practically the whole Race is watching, and under conditions of 'the past and present, it is only a matter of a short time until several big Negro movements will coalesce and through truly representative Negro leaders, demand an accounting of Black America's patrimony-American citizenship. SOWING THE WIND - The incident at Lorena, Texas a few days ago, in which one man was killed and many others seriously wounded including the sheriff of that county, is but a mere indication of the extent to which the Ku-Khux-Klan will go in carrying out their purpose. Loreena, Texas a few da many others seriously wily, is but a mere indic Klan will go in carrying bows conclusively, that it for law or law enforcer interfered with. They. Texas is the only logical co unity where the klan is and race hatred and cor The incident shows conclusively, that the members of the klan have no respect for law or law enforcement officers, when their purposes are interfered with. They are taught to resist even with their lives. The clash in Texas is the only logical conclusion which must come to every community where the klan is allowed to organize and breed religious and race hatred and contempt for law. The State of Texas has allowed this monstrous and poisonous organization to take a deep-seated hold on her citizens, and like "sowing the wind," she is now reaping her whirlwind. The shooting of a sheriff who was attempting to enforce the law, by members of the Klansmen, in a Texas town, should be a warning to other cities and state officials as to just what to expect should the klan get its desired hold upon the community. The invisible empire can not disclaim responsibility for the murdering of one man and wounding of nearly a score of others during their parade in a Texas town, recently. But, true their reputation, murder and bloodshed must follow in their wake. By playing upon religious and racial hatred, the promoters of the klan have built a strong organization in this country. Tolerance on the part of the officers of the law is like sowing to the wind; they must reap the whirlwind. We have noticed that during the week Mayor Kiel has made a few more personal appointments. A close observation of the list we see that no Negro has been selected by the mayor to fill any of his personal appointments. It will be remembered that Mayor Kiel always, when making a speech before a colored audience, tells them that he owes his election to their vote, and their loyalty has enabled him to be elected mayor for the third time. Mayor Kiel owes it to the Colored people of this city, at least one of his personal appointments. By every rule of the game, he should have, before now, given to them one of the places filled. Throughout all ages people have had cause for complaint, but the act of Mayor Kiel is one of the rankest pieces of ingratiude we have ever seen pulled off in present-day politics. We should remember these things, remember these things. What's the Matter with Victor J. Miller, President of the Police Board that he does not order an investigation as to how many members of the St. Louis Police force belong to the Invisible Empire, the Ku-Kluan-Klan? We do not see how our Police department can uphold the laws of the city and state and at the same time belong to a band of outlaws, race-haters, and murderers. STATEMENT OF THE OWNERSHIP MANAGEMENT.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Oct. 1. —It was a big day in court in Knoxville a few days ago when a large crowd mostly young women heard the breach of promise suit in which damages were allowed. A jury in the Knox county circuit court in Knoxville is judge, awarded Mine Tiny Didd damages to the extent of $2400 as heart baim in her breach of promise suit against Prof. T. W. Austin here a few days ago. Letters were produced in court which showed that Austin had made love to the young woman during the entire time he was teaching school in a Kentucky city, assuring the young woman that he loved her and loved her as his bride. But when Austin returned to his work in Kentucky he met another young woman whom it is claimed suited his fancy to a greater extent than did the Knoxville young woman and following a short courtship he was successful in having the Kentucky belle say "yes" to his question and they were married. In her claim, for damages Miss Dodge states that she grew due to the long hours following Austin's marriage and up to the time she approached her lawyer with the big batch of love letters, which were produced in court, and which seemed to be the strongest points in favor of the young woman when the charges were passed on by the court. SENATOR WALSH. PLEADS FOR 'OPPRESSED NEGRO' AT BIG CONFERENCE SENATOR WALSH. PLEADS FOR 'OPPRESSED NEGRO' AT BIG CONFERENCE WASHINGTON, R. E. C. Oct. 5—General discussion of the agenda of the conference consisted the major portion of the early session of the first annual convention of the National Council of Catholic Men at the New Willard Hotel Thursday, following which the entire organization went to the University of Pennsylvania to receive by President Harding. Defending the Americanism of the foreign-born citizen, denouncing religious intolerance and pleading for help for an oppressed people of America," the Negroes, Senator David L. Walsh, of Massachusetts, addressed mass rallies, the gymnasium of the National College, and under the auspices of the organization list night. Senator Walsh dwell at length on the splendid record made by Catholic men during the war, and, referring to the idea that there is a relationship between a man's religion and his patriotism, said: "I cannot understand how there can be one scientila of doubt about the loyalty of the Catholics of America, or at least about their right to be here and worship God according to the dictates of their conscience. After men of all tueses and religions fought together and died together, I cannot understand how any man can dare ask another what his religion or race is?" Referring to the American Negroes as "oppressed people," Senator Walsh made a strong appeal to members of the National Council of Catholic Men to do all a their power to befriend and aid the colorful race. He blamed, the modern drift of education, toward materialism, as the fun damental cause of the present unrest. More than 1,000 people attended the meeting, which was held about forty members of the American Catholic Hierarchy, who are assembled for their annual conference at the Catholic University. Associated Negro Press 'BUFFALA,' N. Y., Oct. 5. Mr. Jas. A. Ross, Chairman of the National Olceded Democracy Association will convene the Executive Committee of this organization to map out a policy for the 1922 campaign. He is under the opinion that many members of the Race will support the party if a northern Democrat is nominated in the next national contest, especially if the present Harding latitude is retained in THE DUPLEX POESS. "RACES MUST SUCCEED OR FALL TOGETHER" SAYS DR. MOTON By Wm. Anthony Aery NORFOLK, Va., Oct. 5. "White people are unselfishly organizing themselves, and, in cooperation with respectable colored people, are striving to see that the Negro gets a fair chance and absolute justice under the laws," declared Dr. Robert H. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute and president of the National Negro Business League, in a recent address which delivered the first Baptist Church Conference E. H. Dowley met to fore a large mass meeting, held under the auspices of the Negro Chamber of Commerce of Norfolk, H. T. Dlayey, president and James E. Scott, secretary-manager. Dr. Moton, who served for many years as commandant of cadets at Hampton Institute, before he became Booker T. Washington's successor at Tuskegee, made a vigorous plea, for business honesty and condemned wildly aggressive schooling. He spouted less aggressively all business organization which men attempt to develop on the basis of race prejudice. Dr. Moton spoke on the value of industry, racial integrity, and morality. He made a plea that the two races should learn to live together peacefully and harmoniously, thus sharing the blessings of prosperity. Want, he said, to cement more friendly and cooperative relations between the two races that must succeed or fall together. "The great current of inter-racial co-operation is sweeping forward. We have never lied in a more hopeful era. There is no reason for discouragement." Dr. Moton referred to the community service of the colored doctors of the school, since May, and gave free free treatment to all patients, and Berry O'Kelly of Method N. C., who recently gave $5000 for a colored school. He paid a warm tribute to the cooperative spirit which the Negro business leaders of Norfolk have been showing in the rapid development of their widely diversified lines of work. Dr. Moton recommended to the white men and women who were present that they advise their friends to visit the Negro business institutions, which would reflect credit on any race. "There are certain organizations among the white people and among the black people," declared Mr. Moton, "which are built up almost entirely on the ideas of race hatred." Such organizations bring disgrace to the Nation, not necessary in a desecrateable and civilized South, where relations between the races are growing more friendly each day for white people to organize them selfs against any supposed or imaginary aggression of black people. "Norfolk is a fine example of the progress which Negroes are-making in independence and self-respect. These galus for the Negro have resulted in greater respect and confidence from the leading white people of this community. "It is not necessary, on the other hand, for black people to organize for the protection of themselves against which people, when white people are organizing themselves and, in cooperation with responsible people, are striving to see that the Negro gets a far chance and absolute justice under the laws. This is true in every Southern state in spite of much that you may hear to the contrary." Dr. Moton met the children of the Booker T. Washington High School (D. G. Jacos, principal). He was entertained at the home of P. B. Young, editor of the Norfolk "Journal and Guide." He also visited a number of Reading Negro business concerns. He was entertained by the landlord of Norfolk. These friends are planning to bring the National Negro Business League to Norfolk in 1922. A university training does not give a much benefit. It only invests Moe.

See That Your Advertisement Appears In This Paper PART TWO PAN-AFRICAN CONGRESS Many Little Differences Of Opinion At Brussels Meeting. French Delegate Declares Tribes Opposed To Any Schemes On Their Territory. (This is the second of the Pan-African Series. The third will be continued next week.) BRUSSELS, Belgium.—At Brussels we meet in the world famous Palais Mondial where students from every known part of the world come to study. The site is a beautiful and inspiring one—located in the Châteaumière erected to commemorate the fifteenth anniversary of the establishment of the present Belgian government. It is the wish of the Belgians to make the Palais Mondial the center for all great movements of the world that are international in scope and that tend towards the advance of civilization and the solution of those problems which threaten the destruction of that civilization. Frenchman Attacks Garrey The sessions opened on the afternoon of August 31 in the great of the Palais Mondial. A distinguished group of persons sat in the assembly, Colored and white, men and women, Africans, Europeans and the reply sentatives of the Americans. M. Blissie Diagne, president of the Commission of Deputies and French High Commissioner of High Troon presided. In his opening address, M. Diagne outlined the history, plans and aims of the Pan-African Congress. He took occasion to attack in unimittuted terms the schemes of Marcus Garrey classing them as "imperialistic and dangerous" and he told of the bitter opposition of the African tribes to any scheme of the sort. An address of welcome was next delivered by Senator Aurli Lafontaine of Belgium and by M. Paul Otlet, one of the secretaries of the Palais Mondial who is known as "the father of the League of Nations." Excellent speeches were also made by Dr. William, former "physician to the French government," and the civilization of that country; by Mme Sorelin on behalf of the women of Belgium; by a former member of the House of Representatives of Portugal; by Miss Frauset who spoke (in French) of the part played by the Colored women of America in the fight for equal suffrage for women; by M. Bartholemy on behalf of the French government; he being a member of the French Chamber of Deputies from Arras; by Dr. Duffo, who spoke on behalf of the French government; he being M. Paul Panda. The last speaker has had a remarkable experience. Born in the Belgian Congo, he was brought to Belgium by a missionary to be educated when a lad of six or seven years of age. Shortly afterwards the missionary died. Over the protests of many of her friends who declared that she was foolish since science showed that a Negro mind closed up at the age of fourteen, the low gown gave the female form the illusion that M. Panda's race was rapid. He is today almost single-handedly fighting in Belgium the cause of the Belgian Congo and he has forced the government to recognize his demands and to adopt his program in full. His address was an unusually clear exposition of the cause of the Congo today. Civilization In Africa The sessions on Wednesay were given over to a discussion of the history and civilization of Africa, of tribal and cultural life, of Negro states, and of contact with other African peoples representative of Portuguese South Africa: General Luís Soselas of Spain who has spent a great part of his life in Africa; A Pamela and others. In the afternoon a visit was made to the Congo Museum, perhaps the most famous collection of products existing in the world today. As one viewed the magnificent display of anthograduates, the reason for the explanation and torture of the Congolese was remarkably clear. On Friday morning remedies for prevent conditions and methods for sitting "Negro" problems were taken up as well as the questions of the right of Negroes in White communities, native rights, mandates, economic exploitation, black states and allied problems. I wish that space would permit me, to tell of the high order of discussion and the wealth of information and same recommendation that advanced. All of this will, however, be published at a later date by the Crisis. First Session Difficulty At the closing session of the Brussels meeting came the first絮絮 difficulty of the Congress when the Dublin read the resolution that had been adopted at London. The difficulty was due to large measure to the difference in psychology of the various groups, particularly between the French and American delegates. At one time it threatened to seriously hinder the progress of the Congress in remarkable restraint by the American delegates, who kept always apprehens the real purpose and seed of a real international movement among Colored peoples of the world. The trouble arose over the resolutions which were what necessarily supported by the American delegates but which "My Prophesy Has Been Fulfilled" All nurses teach the blood except the American Neptune. The only success to the commercial world is teaching of the blood from the creade to the grave. Every mother, father, preacher, lawyer and doctor must join in this effort to push the commercial world among the Neptunes. The Pan African Congress has adopted as a rule that all dark races must look to that end. Since I have seen a great congress such as this take my view on "the blood." It brings my prophecy to an end. I hope every reader of the Argus will die this away for future reference. 4511a Cottage avenue, St. Louis, Mo Gee, W. Smith RACES CO-OPERATE IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA RACES CO-OPERATE IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA Special to The Argus HAMPTON, Va., Oct. 5—White and colored women in Virginia, as well as in other Southern states, are so much in earnest about doing the right thing that they are able to speak frankly to each other concerning their common problems. The recent fourth-annual meeting of the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, paid by the Virginia State Barrett of the Virginia Industrial School for Colored Girls, which was held in Lexington, had special streets on the value of interracial cooperation. President Barrett, who has served the Federation in this capacity from the beginning said: "The interracial movement, being launched in different States is most important. There will never be a time when goodwill between the races will be more needed than now and I know of no group in a better position to speak frankly to each other about the men of the Virginia State Federation of Colored Women's clubs. I feel that I can count on you to throw your whole strength with this movement. You and I have learned from experience how much can be accomplished by white and colored people trusting each other and working together. The Virginia Industrial School is an example. Neither the white nor the black students were working at the same place of work alone, but together we have done work which is acceptable to the community, the State, and the country. "You and I are in position to speak for the sincerity and the loyalty of some of the white men and sainting who are as anxious as we are to right wrongs for we have tasted them. We can never stand by and hear white people deprived as a whole because of the wrongdoing of some, without telling of those we know in the North and in the justice and fairplay for all." White and colored men and women spoke before the Federation women who are trying to get a common platform upon which the churches and clubs can work develop community programs. Virginia citizens, both white and black, engage in meeting and their attention directed to some Serious problems in childrearing, and health conservation. The Federation, on invitation visited the Virginia Military Institute and Washington and Lee University. certain European governments. The difficulty overcome after election by referendum is to move to Paris meeting for action. In the meanwhile a rather inhumane resolution was passed which was not approved by the Americans. As state1 above the difficulty but further proves the need of a movement like the Pan-African Congress. With the exception of color, and the common exploitation of Colored groups based on that color, there is little in common among many of the groups of Colored peoples. The different languages residue customary traditions, civilizations, environments and viewpoints a barrier to complete unity of thought and action that must be overcome. Certain it is that men of color must unite if they are not to be submerged during this transitional period of reenlampment. That unity run come only through acquaintance and knowledge and sympathy. Those things can come to the men of color through further sessions of the Pan-African Congress, many difficulties will arise because of this lack of contact and of knowledge but each year, if the work is continued with personnel and intelligence will see a gradual decrease of that friction.

TO BE (NONEXHIBITED) WONDERFUL THINGS ARE NOW HAPPENING IN "OLE KENTUCKY" Associated Negro Press. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Oct. 5, Wonderful things are happening in "the Kentucky," A veritable ground-swell is staking place in that state of threebeds and the eyes of the nation are certain to be focused upon that commonwealth, because of the political "daring of the train." The Lincoln Sansevieria Party has been born, aristened and cultivated to political emancipation from the shriekes of blind and ungrateful amilation. Southshea is kept in the shade, and the fall she, like the days of November, prefetted by the political writers of the A. N. 5, will see a new era of our political life. At the convention held in Louisville a full ticket was placed in the field covering every office from magistrical Constable to Senator. It was a wonderfully inspiring occasion and a veritable eye opener to old political war horses. The whole situation is summed in the state made by one of the most powerful Republicans, the local Republican machine is an out and out "illy white" and holds Colored people in contempt. Yet he never hesitates to use them and like hams they have herdroff submitted to him, to the extent that four years ago with the same old prejudice the Colored people loyalty, supported the Republicans and helped turn the Democratic Party into a Republican gobot of affairs before a Republican councillor introduced a Jim crow street car bill in the council. Boast of "Boss It is openly stated on the streets that the "Boss" boasts that he knows both our preachers and erap shooters and that he don't give a d—n for the better element. It is alleged that he controls or has until this time controlled the underworld, thereby securing reporters, intimidating voters stuffing bullet boxes, and even right now distributing anonymous bills and circulars mansuing and vilifying the leaders of the Lincoln Independent Movement. Last year this same crowd advertised for "husky Negro women" to sweep the street: the street put up our "jim claw" films in all the city parks, something the Democrats never, alas, put a decept job in the entire city has been given to respectable Colored man or woman; the only places parcelled out to them being four or five blacks and two whites are unsuitable to book phalanxian. The famous teeth ward is 95 percent Negro and it was in this that cent Negro and it was 'in this that Win. Warley won the nomination two years ago, only to have it taken from him. This year two offered for the August primary nomination. One the publican machine endorsed the white man and then had another white man to file a suit against the Colored man. Wilson Lovett, who had the nerve to permit his friends to offer his name for the nomination. They asylum in court that one of the signers of Lovett's petition had previously registered as a socialist and they succeeded in their case in the local court. Lovett carried his case to the Kentucky Court of Appeals, which would not try it. Claiming no jurist, he complained and argued the people generally that without much effort the Lincoln Independent Party swung into being. Our people deceived that this was an outrage and should not be permitted to continue. A Complete Ticket As a result the people set and deliberated and put out a complete ticket. These represent our people from all worthy walks of life. Clean and upright men and women who are determined to throw off the unnanny yoke so long about our necks. Naturally, the machine is not title. With ghrels shrewd insight they have set about to array one element against another. Doers, subhistorical and underworld scavengers and proteges to write letters to the daily paper denouncing the new movement and endeavor to steam the rising tide. They are charging that this is in reality a democratic movement financed by Democrats and that the leaders of the new party are getting some graft. But the array of candidates and supporters of the new party is sufficient answer 16 this label. The opposition with its tremendous fund has hired miscellaneous contacts on the street corners and hold harangues in the most palatable display of sale of their birthright for the moss of pottage. The Independents know and the Republicans know that this move is going to kill the chances of Republican success, even the it may not sweep many Negroes into office. The strongly intruded 10th ward is most likely to go 100 per cent for the new candy dates. And if the Democrats who under their new leadership have been able to get into power it will serve notice upon Republicans throne the nation that Negroes can and will use their power to drive those who misleave and break faith with us. Moreover, the present Republican mayor and the present Republican Majority candidates are former Democrats, so in this case the party label means little. NEW MISSOURI LAW WILL PUT STOP TO STEALING AUTOMOBILES IN STATE JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. Oct. 5.—The extra session of of the Missouri Legislature, which closed August 3rd, enacted a new law relating to sale and transfer of automobiles which will help stamp out the sale and handling of stolen automobiles. The new law, which goes into effect the 2nd day of November, 1921, is a complete revision of all former Missouri laws applying to motor cars, and makes the regulation practically the same in the rural districts as in the city. Each car owner has the benefit and protection of the Missouri Motor Vehicle Department issuing a certificate of ownership from the Motor Vehicle Department of the State for which a nominal fee of only one dollar is charged. Upon the registration being made by owners of cars a certificate of ownership is issued and must be referred to in all transactions afterward. Every owner in Missouri must register his car with the department, giving full description of the car, its record, and its right numbers, and in the future no transfer that has been made to another owner or proving ownership rightfully, and assignment must be made on the reverse side of the certificate of ownership, record of which transfer to be made with the Motor Vehicle Department, Jefferson City, Mo. at the cost of one dollar, with application. The sale of a motor car in Missouri after the new law becomes operative beginning November 2nd, without the transfer of the registered certificate of ownership, will be illegal, and the self-sale itself becomes an act of fraud. Inspectors are to be placed in the field by Secretary of State Charles L. Becker to work under the direction of Commissioner Steininger, of the Motor Vehicle Department. Applications for appointment to the inspectorships are reported to have exceeded the two hundred mark, but the law only authorizes the selection of three such inspectors, who will be selected and will begin work after the new law goes into effect. Each car owner in Missouri should immediately register his car with Secretary of State Becker on the blanks sent out to car owners from the Motor Vehicle Department and help in this effort to stop the stealing and trafficking in stolen cars in Missouri. Those desiring to know more about the new automobile law should read the copy of the new law from Secretary of State Charles U. Becker, Jefferson City, Mo., or look up the special session laws of the extra session. Fifty-first General Assembly, and read up on the new law. PRESIDENT HARDING NAMES OCTOBER 10 NAT'L FIRE PREVENTION DAY PRESIDENT HARDING NAMES OCTOBER 10 NAT'L FIRE PREVENTION DAY The Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, IL. Oct. 5. The anniversary of Chicago's great fire has been set aside by President Harding as a "National Fire Prevention Day," when by every possible means the people of every city and hamlet in the Union will be 'impressed with' the necessity for conserving created wealth thru elimination of fires. The President in a proclamation addressed to the governors of the various states of the Union designated Oct. 10 as the day for the commemoration of the fire. The President noted in the day, 9 but that date falls on Sunday, and the President named the day following for the observance. In his proclamation President Harling gives some startling figures on the damage done by fire in this country. "The annual loss of life is estimated at 15,000 human beings, most of them women and children," he says. "While the world is far for American products, it is far for American workers over $800,000,000 and in the five years previous, killed $1,416,875,000—buildings, foodstuffs and other created wealth needlessly wiped out." The President also points to timber fires in 1920 totaling $85,000,000, which he says, threaten urility to 56,000,000 acres of hitherto productive timberland. "Of the fire losses" his proclamation continues, "ass due to lossless and may be easily presented by increased care and education on part of our citizens." The President, urges the governors of the various states, "to request the citizens of their states to plan for the day, thru pulpil, press and form, such impudent and educational exercises as shall impress the public mind with the threatened disaster of our unnecessary fire waste".¹ He urges that systematic instruction of the schools of the country, and that every citizen every day exercise the utmost caution to safeguard from fire by "observing cleanliness and order in homes and communities." "Fire is a danger that never sleeps." he warms, "and is only by doing our duty as citizens, individually and collectively that we may conserve the country's natural and created resources.

From one of the highest sources in the Republican party. The Associated Negro Press has been assured in behalf of the Colored Americans that the Republican organization and the Republican administration are friendly to the best interests of colored Americans. This assurance comes at a time when Colored Republicans throughout the United States, have practically lost faith in the sincerity of purpose of the Republican party and the present administration. From the same high source it is learned that "the historic friendly attitude of the Republican party has not been changed, and if you will watch the policy of this administration, you will find abundant and conclusive evidence of this fact." Turmoil Everywhere This information comes at a time when there is turmoil everywhere there are colored voters. Ohio, the State of President Harding, has developed a state of insurgency, that is nothing less alarming. The coalition and fusion effort is growing in the Buckeye State, and will doubtless manifest itself strongly in the fall elections. When in the City of Cleveland, Ohio, for the first time in the history of the city, the Democratic candidate is making an open bid for Colored voters, and is addressing their meetings. In the State of New Jersey, there is considerable dissatisfaction over the present political conditions. Isaac H. Nutter is regarded by all of the progressive element of the Race as the real leader of Colored citizens in the real estate of Colored cities be known in no uncertain terms that he will tolerate anything but political justice for one and all. For the purpose of getting right at the bottom of things, and facing the issue with frankness. The Associated Negro Press has taken the matter of political conditions up directly with every Republican United States Senate. Expression of attitude of four direct subjects were asked: 1. —Lynching 2. —Ku-Klux-Klan 3. —Henry Lincoln-Johnson 4. —Administration policy The United States Senators were told that Colored Americans are intered in tariff, taxes, disarmament, and other subjects, as other American citizens, but that there are certain subjects that strike at the vitals of the American citizenship on which there should be direct information. Difference of Opinion On the subject of lynching, there seems to be unanimous agreement that something should must and will be done. Senator Knite Nelson Chairman of the Judiciary Committee, promises to give to the legislation consider and attention. Senator Frank R. Wilkins Ohio, declares that he is absolutely opposed to lynching, and declared: "I shall face an able looking towards its prevention." The Senator says he is opposed to the Knix KluxKlan. "Historically, and otherwise I think there is no necessity for such an organization in our system of government." "Concerning 'the confirmation of Henry Lincoln Johnson, Senator Willis said: 'If there is any objection as to his capability or integrity, of course that should be considered without reference to color. 'If the only objection is that he is a colored man, I of course would not consider any such objection for a moment.' Senator McKinley of Illinois, declares that 'I think it an outrage that Henry Iacobi Johnson has not been confirmed". Senator McKinley says he is heartily in favor of as strong an anti-tilting law, as can be made, and is against any such organization as Kuhlux. Senator George H. Moses, of New Hampshire said that he is in "hearty sympathy" with most of the matters brought to his attention for adjudgment. However, concerning the confirmation of Henry Lincoln Johnson, Senator Johnson states: "I do not think Mr. Johnson is sufficiently representative of the least character of the Colored citizens of the United States to warrant his appointment to so important an office." It will be remembered, speaking politically, that Senator Moses was one of the men of Gen. Leonard Wood in the war against the Confederate States was an avowed supporter of Gov. Lowden of Illinois. Senator Capper of Kansas Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas on the subject of lynching said. "Seatiment on the subject is stronger in Congress than ever before. The bill is still before the committee and it is not likely we will be able to get action on the subject. The President is urging immediate action on these measures and it is impossible to make any headway with other measures." Senator Capper gave some very direct information concerning sentiment in Congress on the Ku Klux-Klan. He said: "The Ku Klux-Klan is an abnormally institution and the sentiment of the overwhelming majority of the people is whether further legislation is necessary to handle this problem. My understanding is, the Department of Justice is giving it very earnest consideration." Concerning the matter of recognition politically, and the attitude toward the group, Senator Capper, after stating that the action on Col. Johnson's confirmation has been delayed because of the absence of Senator Jones, chair of the SubCommittee, looking into the charges preferred, said: "I am, anxious to see the administration, make a good record in the matter of constructive legislation affecting the rights of the colored people and favorable consideration in the way of recognition for the Colored Race in the public service. Négro American Legions Will Be Well Cared For During K. C. Convention The Associated Negro Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. Oct. 5.—The Third National Convention of the American Legion to be held at Kansas City, Mo. October 31. November 1st and 2nd. will no doubt be one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the country. "Wayne Minor" Post," the only Negro post in the city, has made extensive preparations to care for and entertain the delegates and visitors. With the railroads granting the rate of one cent-per mile to K. I. during the convention, it is expected that several hundred Negroes will be in attendance. The rate is effective from as far east as Chicago and encourages Negroes to connect themselves with the American Legion, but it is expected that many will comp from that section. "A convention of that caliber is worthwhile bringing military genius from all sections of the earth together. The Negro did his part. Orgrisha? Why not join him? H. Billeder, his commander. There were many Negro delegates at the convention last year at Cleveland, Ohio. R. M. C.

LOUIS, MO. THE NEGRO IN INDUSTRY By Dr W. A. Evans in Chicago Tribune (By The Associated Negro Press) The 1920 census showed two ten- dencies among Negroes. The first in that they are moving out of the rural into the urban districts and especially into the great industrial districts. When the great industrial enterprises were shore of labor during the war they remembered that the Negro does not lend himself readily to organization and they pounced on him as a reservoir of supply. When they did they started something which will cost many a penny before it stops. The census shows that the migration of Negroes to every northern state was heavy and that it was heaviest to the industrial centers. The second point showed by the census was that the Negro death rate is almost as high as the birth rate. In the ten year period, according to the statistical bulletin of the Metropolitan Life, the Negro population increased only 0.5 per cent or 65 of one per cent a year. The white population increases 2 per cent a year. Of that 1 per cent is due to excess of births or deaths. The Negro in America has come to have a birth rate as compared with Negroes elsewhere. For this venual disease is less and perhaps the largest factor. Volunteer with control is not a factor of importance. According to the bulletin quotal, using the deaths as a basis and fixing that rate as 100, the city Negro-birth rate is 104, while that of the country Negro is 159. Since the Negro is moving into town, before long the chief factor in decreasing the Negro birth rate will be "moving into town." There seems to be a fair chance that veneral disease will be brought under control, but it will take several years more than a decade to raise the birth rate by decreasing veneral disease. There now sterile by such disease will remain so for life. Unless something is done the Negro population presently will come to a standstill, since there is no Negro immigration worth speaking of. What will the Negro do about it? The obvious way is to reduce the death rate. Moving into great industrial centers has made things worse in more directions than one. First, there is bound to be a great increase in rickets. West Indian Negroes are said not to have rickets at all. Southern Negroes do not have rickets. Recently a Chicago rickets specialist said that every Negro child in that city had rickets. It generally is agreed that a very large proportion of Negro children in northern cities have rickets. Moving to industrial centers increases [the danger of consumption and the consumption rate of adult Negroes, in twice as high as that of whites of times as high as that of whites of times as high as that there will an increased baby death. The Negroes in those industrial centers are less subject to malaria, typhoid fever, and small-pox as a rule. All in all, the problem of race improvement which the Negroes must solve will not be a "**** one. "THE MEANS TO AN, END" By Patrick H. O'Donnell (Extract from an address delivered at a public meeting of the Douglas National Bank in the city of Chicago, born famous Irish Orator.) (By The Associated Negro Press) "We are at the dawn of a better day for all humanity. We are about to abolish slavery forever from the face of earth. All of the races of men have tasted the wine of true liberty and the Negro world be less than human if he didn't drink to the fullest of the spirit which promises to make all men free and equal. The fruits of labor form the base of all characters of wealth. The possession of wealth makes for true economic freedom. The gift of economic freedom kills every possibility of life for slavery in the commendable forms. In the commendable forms, you can be asked to establish a National Bank in one of the largest cities in the world, whether you appreciate it or not, you are bringing your people into closer contact with each of the activities that give our common country a first place among the greater nations of the earth. No white man can help you to rise in the social scale. You alone can do the work. This is a busy, practical world today and sentiment plays but a small part in the processes that are holding the elements of society together. Confidence, respect, courage, these are the great elemental forces. The confidence in yourselves that has prompted you to establish the Dongmen republic in this great metropolis of the world. This big step you have planned to attain is economic freedom. This bank, put on a soil financial basis will make certain whatever else your race may attempt to do in fields of big business, enterprises. There is the bondage of the soul. We must be free of both before we can be truly channeled. This can only be accomplished by showing confidence in your own ability and intelligence to solve the practical problems of life. Have you ever stopped long enough to realize that one day's profits of your business men in the so-called "big city" will come much from your chance to enjoy theasonic freedom that is spurred as a matter of sight and justice? Do you know that the National Bank is the stabilizer and maintainer of the nation's prosperity? Can you not see, then that a National Bank that you can call own, will bring on those situations of respect that will make you welcome in all the greater movements for the mutual good in this great city of ours? Confidence in yourselves and the full respect of the other elements of our big-capital population, I may again, will belong to the economic freedom which all men have enjoyed the world threw these. Don't be too easily scared. Don't be too willing to be greedy. It THE ST. LOUIS ARGUS, FRIDAY, OCT., 7, 1921 to keep from falling into the pitfalls at the bottom of which lie failure, the savage play of prejudice, economic slavery and final social elimination. You have $25,000,000 on deposit in the banks of Chicago over which you have no control. Aside from the fact that you have saved that huge amount of money, it brings you no power to use 60 the economic profit of your business to bring home to you is that confidence in yourselves, the wholesome respect of your neighbors and then the courage to fight valiantly for the places of economic freedom are the common sense weapons by which men get to the top in the great and worthwhile struggle for full economic freedom. Keep this bank going. Stand solidly behind the band of brave men who have sacrificed their institution that will be a front rank to bring you quickly to the proud position of a true 100 per cent americanism. Your place in the larger American life will be determined in larger measure than you are aware by your loyalty to your business enterprises. Didn't you know better than to put Negros, Jews, Catholics and all the foreignons together? If you had only had the foresight to limit your tar and feathers to Colored Americans, scarcely anybody would have opposed you,—not even the good old New York World, which is the only white American can daily paper that throws to speak out in a crisis for justice to the Negro even this paper would not have said oneenth as much against you if you had confined your devilty to the Negro. West thought you know that, since you are a southerner like ourselves, we have some sectional pride, and we hate to see a real southerner bungle a matter so. Even if he is fighting us we like to see him do it well and creditably. Just think of what a good time you would have had tarring and white-capping Negroes, if you had not tarred and mobbed anybody else! And when you put the Negro with Jews, Cabolies and foreigners, you put him in with the most important company in this part of the world: Bless you, didn't you know that if you take these four grown men out, they would be anything much less? You ask, "Bloodstretched Americanism." Why. If you take out of this country the African, Somite, Catholic, Asiatic, and all other "furriin" stock, you won't have anything "red" left but red-necks in Mississippi and Georgia. We told you at the very first intimation of this foolish demaration, that if you were going to draw the line in that fashion, the Negro would much rather be with the Outs than to be with the Ins. You ought to be as shrewd as the lyncher. Just suppose they want to lynch Jews and Catholics and Japanese and all others who happened not to be born of the "stalwart" and acceptable breed, why (don't you know that Harding and Congress would pass an ant-lynching law and go after the lynchers without debate and without constitutional scrupses. Why we thought you had the eagle, the all-seeing eye, and now you make us think of the old Colored man who made the mistake in pronouncing your "woofful" title and called you "the Imperial Buzzard." Take it from us, Old Man, for we have been there too, and we know. ...M you want to get away with it, conine it to the "Niggers." THE CENTENARY AND THE EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO THE CENTENARY AND THE EDUCATION OF THE NEGRO By I. Garland Penn Secretary Board of Education for Negroes, Methodist Episcopal Church. As the first meeting of the immortal twelve of the Methodist fathers who organized the Freemasons' Aid Society, the Methodist Church and subsequently into the Chapter of the organization, that the new society was "to cooperate with the Foreign and Home Missionary and Church Extension Societies of the Methodists Episcopal Church." "The emphasis was properly placed, because the education of the Negro was but to train leaders and followers for the work at home and abroad covered these boards. Without education the Board of the Board could get results. It is likely true of all other Boards of the church, as they operate among the Negroes. When therefore, the Centenary became church-wide advance for the Boards it was a work of Providence. The speealing up of the education of the Nazca than the institutions of the Board of Education for Negroes, the Centenary has meant everything. The of Managers of the organization had been doing everything possible to get the institutions out of debt, to promote good business methods in their conduct, to ease borrowing money and to stop leakages that whatever of saving increase that might be forthcoming could be used to advance the work. The people therefore, will be glad to know that Centenary money to the Board of Education for Negroes has been a great boon and to the institution and that every penny goes in develop the work which is now going by leases and bounds. tration and School Building at Clark University with new athletic gymnasium and chapel, additional improvements such as new brick President's residence, the total being $105,000 puffs the Clark University project on the way to real fulfillment. 4. The erection of two new buildings a girls dormitory and reflectory at Bennett College and other repairs upon the existing buildings which when all will be completed present year will amount to $15,500 million. 5. The purchase at Meridian, Miss., of a great school plant, known as the Meridian College and Conservatory, has been made. The small plant known as Haven Institute has already been transferred to the new property. The old plant consisted of a few small wooden and one poorly arranged brick building with one and a half acres of ground, the value of which was but $25,000. The new plant secured represents a valuation of $300,000 in 100 acres of land, three large well-equipped buildings, six residences for President, dean and vice-president, conservatory building with forty-six planes, claviers and a pipe organ and a large chapel well seated with monogamous chairs. This is but a partial description. The cost to the Board of Education for Negro was $151,750.00. GUIDES TO HEALTH TUBERCULOSIS AND ITS CAUSES Tuberculosis is never inherited, but is an acquired communicable disease caused by growth in the body of the tubercle bacillus, or germ. There can be no tuberculosis without the germ. The daily expectation of a consumptive may contain millions of germs. Dust laden with these germs floats in the air and is breathed into the lungs. Tuberculosis may also be acquired by swallowing the germs with infected milk and food, or the germs may enter the system through cuts and wounds. The germ growing in the body destroys tissues and produces poisons which cause the disease. The commonest form of tuberculosis is tuberculosis of the lungs, or consumption but it may occur in any part of the body, and especially in the bones and joints of children. Young children are particularly liable to infection from contact with consumptive persons. Such childhood infection may not produce immediate disease and may remain inactive for years, until the person weakened by bad environment, displacement, overwork, or disease as influenza, diptera, scarlet fever or measles, loses all resisting power. The germs then become active and a breakdown with tuberculosis occurs. How You Can Avoid Tuberculosis Don't breathe dusty air. All dust is irritating to the lungs and it may contain particles of dried tubercular spit. Keep away from all careless coughers and spitters. Insist that the other fellow corer his mouth and nose when he coughs or sneezes; also do it yourself. Breathe plenty of fresh air and get all the sunshine you can. Don't sleep, live or work in dark or badly ventilated rooms. Get seven or eight hours of good sound sleep every night in a room with open windows. Hold up light or at least a cold sponge in the morning tones up the system. Take proper exercise and drink plenty of fresh water. Swat the fly. He carries tubercular spit and may deposit it on your food. Avoid getting run down. Keep your self so that you can resist tuberculosis. Commonest Early Symptoms Persistent cough or hoarseness lasting three weeks or longer. Continued pain in the chest. Run down, tired feeling; loss of weight and appetite. Afternoon temperature. Night sweats. Spitting of blood or streaks of blood in the sputum. If you have any of the symptoms go at once to a good tuberculosis physician. If you cannot afford a specialist go to the clinic nearest your home. How to Cure Tuberculosis Have a thorough medical examination to follow doctor's advice. Be treated in the early stages of the disease. If your case is in an advanced stage it is better for you to go to a sanitarium. If you cannot afford to pay for treatment the care given you at Koch Hospital, only a few miles from St. Louis, is as good as you can find anywhere. **DIPHTHERIA** What Diptheria is: Diptheria is an acute disease of the nose and throat, and is caused by the diptheria germ. These germs not only cause a sore spot where they grow, but also make a poison which weakens the heart. **How It Spreads** Diptheria is a contagious disease. Children catch it (a) from those who have the disease, (b) from those who have had it recently and still carry it and, spread it by coughing and sneezing. Children may get diptheria from sores caused by infection in boiling water before using. Do not allow a child to put into its mouth candy or pencils that have been in the mouth of another person. You Should be Careful You should be very careful to protect your children from diphtheria, and to keep other children from getting it. If your are sick with it. If one of your children has diphtheria, the doctor, if called in time, may be able to prevent the others from catching. If your child has a sore throat, be sure to call in the doctor. Only a doctor can decide whether or not the case is one of diphtheria. If the doctor says antitoxin be used, see that this is done; it may save the child's life in the days before we had antitoxin. One out of three children who had diphtheria died. Now, if antitoxin is used on the first or second day of antitoxicity light out of the hundred children who have diphtheria is attended to the more certain in a cure.

Do these things and you will protect your own and other people's children. **After** the *child is Better* A child should not be allowed to get out bed until the doctor permits. Dispense the medicine the heart is the child gets up to, when the child gets up to, when Only after the doctor has stated that the throat and nose are free from diphtheria germs should the child be allowed, to go out of the house or to play with other children.

LESSON FOR OCTOBER 9 PAUL AT EPHESUS. --- LEBSON TEXT-Acta 12:1-1L GOLDEN TEXT-Thou shul worship the Lord they God, and him only shul thou serve-Matt. 4:10. REFERENCE MATERIAL-Rev. 2:1-7. PRIMARY TOPIC - Paul a Loving Friend and Minister. JUNIOR TOPIC - Paul and the Silver-sanders INTERMEDIATE AND BENIOR TOPIC BOOKS AND PAPERS YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC Planting the Gospel in a Center of Paganism. I. John's Disciples Become Christians (rv. 1-7). These twelve disciples had only been taught the baptism of repentance as a preparation for the kingdom of God. Paul taught them to believe in Christ, that is, to receive Him as the One who had on the cross provided redemption for them. 11. Paul Preaching in Ephesus (vv. 8-10). 1. In the Jewish synagogue (v. 8). His message is characterized by: (1) boldness. He realized that God had sent Him and that His authority was back of Him. (2) Reason. He reasoned with them. God's message is never sentimental nor arbitrary, but in accord with the highest reason. (3) Persuasion. It is not enough to come bodily with a reasonable gift; it must be accompanied by persuasion. (4) Concerning the kingdom of God. He did not discourse on current events, literature, or philosophy, but upon the message of salvation through Christ. 2. In the schoolhouse of Tyrahnus (vv. 9, 10). Paul's earnest preaching only hardened the Jews. When they came out and spoke openly against this way of salvation in Christ, Paul separated the disciples from them and retired to the schoolhouse of Tyrahnus. III. God Working Miracles by Paul (vv. 11-16). So wonderfully did he manifest His power, that handkerchiefs and aprons brought from Paul's body healed the sick and cast out evil spirits from those whose lives had been made wretched, by them. IV. A Glorious Awakening (vv. 17-41). 1. Fear fell upon all (v. 17). News of the casting out of these evil spirits created impressions favorable to Christianity. 2. It brought to the front those who professed faith in Christ while not living right lives (v. 38). They believed, but had not broken from sin. 3. Gave up the practice of black arts (v. 19). This means forms of juggling by use of charms and magical words. All such are in opposition to the will of Gbd; therefore no one can have fellowship with God and practice them. They proved the genuineness of their actions by publicly burning their books. Though this was an expensive thing—valued at about $12,500—they did not try to sell the books and get their money back. When you find you have been in a wrong business, make a clean sweep of things: burn up your books on Spiritualism, Christian Science, etc.; empty your白酒 and beer into the sewer, and have a tobacco party similar to the Boston tea party. 4. Uproar of the Silversmiths at Ephesus (rv. 23-41). (1) The occasion (rv. 23, 24). This was the power of the gospel in destroying the infamous business of Demetrius and his fellows. It was clear to them that idolatry was toting before the power of the gospel. They were not interested particularly in the matter from a religious standpoint, but because it was undermining the principal business of the city. (2) The method (rv. 23-29). Demetrius, a leading business man, whose business was the stay of others of a similar nature, called a meeting and stated that much people had turned their idolatry and that the market for their wares was maternally weakening. He appealed to his fellows (a) on the ground of business, saying "This craft, is in danger of being set at naught," (v. 27). (b) On the ground of religious prejudice. He said "The temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised" (v. 27). He became quite religious when he saw that his business was being interfered with. His speech gained his end; the whole crowd was enraged and yelled in unison. "Great is Diana of the Ephesians." The mob was quieted by the incet and good judgment of the town clerk. The Fall of Jerusalem. And, Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, came against the city, and his servants did besiege it. And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valor, even ten thousand captives—H Kings, 24.11 and 14. The Day of Reckening. And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness; now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face—Moses, 1.2.

HOWARD UNIVERSITY OFFERS ADVANCED TRAINING IN SOCIAL HYGIENE WASHINGTON, D. C. Oct. 5. -By right of location, spirit of progressiveness and its advanced standards, the Howard University of Washington, D. C. is truly designated and regarded as "the National university for the education of colored youth." The latest innovation undertaken by this institution of learning is a plan looking to the establishment of a school of public health and hygiene. In taking this advanced step, the Howard University is keeping up with the universities which have but recently instituted such departments. Aside from the technical knowledge gained by those who study in a school of public health, the high altruistic motives which dominate such a forward-looking movement will not be lost sight of. For several years the university has been taking this step and now the beginning of the movement has been launched. The University regards itself fortunate in having secured the services of Dr. Algercmon B. Jackson, who will become professor of public health and hygiene in the School of Medicine at the beginning of the term October 1. Dr. Jackson comes to the University with a walth of experience in organization, public health and sociological matters. He was conceived as a pioneer in the field of Mercy Hospital in Philadelphia, and has been a contributor to Medical and sociological literature. He brings to his new work enthusiasm and a broad love for humanity, without which such a movement could not succeed. Just as all Americans are awakening to the need of physicians and nurses that have been trained in manly, tertiary science, the colored American is also taking his health problem seriously and desires to make his country more hospitable to those more colored doctors and nurses must be trained, and it is for never this need that the Howard University has set out to do a work of national scope.

Y Associated Negro Press NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—One of the largest realty deals in New York City recently was consummated last week by Charles H. Anderson of Anderson & Company, Bankers, Jacksonville, Fla. Some months ago, Mr. Anderson came to New York City and purchased the northwest corner of Leuco Avenue and 135th Street.

FEEDING STATIONS TO BE OPENED IN CHICAGO The Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, HI. Oct. 5. — Thousands of people out of work at the approach of the winter months present a serious problem; especially when the period of enforced idleness has now continued for nearly a year. Last winter Colored people made an enviable record in caring for their own unemployed by a united effort of their own organizations. Hundreds of homeless and friendless men crowded into the second ward seeking food and shelter. At the direction of the Chicago Urban League, a conference on unemployment was called to discuss the situation with the view of relief. As a result, Bethel A. M. E. Church, Quinn Chapel, Morning Star Baptist, Ebenezer Baptist, Trinity M. E. and Grant Chapel Churches, men's and women's cubs, fraternity orders, and a group of public spilted State street business men joined at the support of feeding stations which were opened several weeks earlier. The numbers prepared and served food. A headline was formed which soon numbered 400. Sleeping stations were also opened in some of the churches, and they were soon overcrowded, as many men being turned away as accommodated. Clothing was collected and given to those needing it. If the predictions of the well-informed come true, this winter will be worse than the last in necessity for relief of this kind. At the recent meeting of forty civic, commercial and industrial agencies of Chicago, the prevailing opinion was that the coming winter will bring suffering to many families and jobsmen; men will be made to meet the emergency through joint committees from the several agencies which are already at work. The seriousness of the situation seems apparent only to those Colored people already heading from the number of persons coming in with the hope of finding work. Not a single working man is needed in Chicago at the present time. In fact, in the week beginning September 11, there came to the League's office, in scarce of any help, and even them temporarily work, like unwound coal, washing windows, day's work, women, hundreds of men and women, long idle are here to clamor for the few jobs dispensed from day to day by the various employment agencies. This latest Urban / League bulletin should serve as a stern warning to Colored people, too many of whom are coming here from points in South and North of Chicago, and it will be able to improve their condition by moving from city to city during the coming winter. Colored people who have recently swelled the population of northern cities will be put to severe test of maintaining themselves out of work in the rigors of a Northern winter. Those who have been thirsty will stand the test, no doubt, successfully, while those who have been imprudent or who have arrived in the north too late will suffer from the cold will offer or become the objects of charity. Home friends and a mild climate should not be disregarded in deciding whether or not one place in as good as another to a man out of a job. Let us also come to Chicago this Fall or winter, unless he already has bunk bed. result of correspondence between Governors Mekeleti of Nebraska and Kendall of Iowa an unemployment conference of the governors of those two states and also of Michigan, Illinois, Missouri, Colorado, North Dakota and South Dakota may be shortly called at Des Moines, Iowa.

FOOT BALL SCHEDULE AT LINCOLN UNIVERSITY IN PENNSYLVANIA LINCOLN UNIVERSITY, Pa., Oct. 5. Lincoln University, Pa. has opened its sixty-sixth, the largest enrolment in its history, and more than two-hundred students, in its college alone. More than 150 applicants, had to be refused for the lack of room. The football squad of more than 40 men is being trained by John A. Slaughter, last year's famous fullback of the Darmouth team. The schedule this year has been arranged as follows: Oct. 8, Ward: Athletic club, Annapolis, Md.; Oct. 15, Bordenwood: Industrial School, Bordentown, N.J.; Oct. 20, Worcester College, at Baltimore, Md.; Oct. 25, Worcester University, at Wilberforce, O. N. 18, Hampton University, at Lincoln University, Pa.; Nov. 12, Virginia Union University, at Richmond, Va.; Nov. 24, Howard University, at Philadelphia, Pa. Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N. J. is the graduate athletic manager. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 5.—Coach W. E. Morrison is still putting the Howard Football squad through the pieces of program of training, which he started this weeks ago. The daily workouts, and managements have not shun far developed other institutes for the places on the league level for last year's graduates. "It is daily evident that the loss of such material Lawrence, Hurt Downing, Nurse and others is certainly felt, and will mark the performance of the squad in future action. Every effort has been put forth to create just of green material, which handles the material.

Creath's Jazz-O-M Team work, as not individual "stars" is the watchdog of the squad. The daily workouts bring certain rewards but do not reach yet that stage of achievement which every coach requires and expects of his men. There are now about forty-four candidates in the field which, as the days go on, will be appreciably reduced. The extreme team weather no doubt plays its part in the slowness with which the team falls into condition and grips the system of play. To date, Coach Morrison has been unable to select even a prospective first or second team. The Freshman football squads will be placed on the field next week. From the applications submitted and looking over the prospective candidates. Howard is assured of not only a large field from which to draw a team, an excellent material for that squad. The Freshman team hopes to play Manassas Institute, Manassas, Va.; Storer College, Harper's Ferry, W. Va.; Morgan College, Baltimore, Md.; and the local high schools, Dunbar and Armstrong. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 5—Dr. Charles A. Lewis has in mind the celebration of the various successes of the Colored people of the Quaker City. As the Lincoln-Howard football game is to be held Thanksgiving day when large crowds will visit the city, Dr. Lewis has arranged for a celebration when former Philadelphiaans from all parts of the country can assemble in their former home to join with their fellows in celebrating the marked advance made. It will be "Old Home Week." By Associated Negro Press NEW YORK, Oct. 5. - Ever since the great success of "Crazy Blues" as recorded for the Okeh Records by Mamie Smith, the popular Colored singer, the public has awaited a successor to that remarkable song. Recently Mamie Smith recorded, in the laboratories of the General Photograph Corporation, the popular new hit, "Sax-Ophney Blues," by Mile Rega which gave up departure from the type of song with which Miss Smith has been identified, past. "In-Sax-ophney Blues," the band's singer of syncopated melodies, struck a new chord of Blues and Jazz interpretation. To the sobbing and morning accompaniment of the saxophone, the singer has created a veritable tone picture of most unusual song, in which the lyrics as well as the melody are splendidly brought out. An especially clever orchestration has been used, payed by an augmented Jazz band, in which the saxophone predominates, and indications are that this song will enjoy, on the records, a wide popularity among lovers of Blues and the many manuscripts which are already submitted to General Photograph Corporation for recording of Miss Smith's style, nothing in recent months has qualified the possibilities of "Sax-ophony Blues." Manile Smith will feature this song on her present tour, under the management of the Standard Amusement Co., which opened September 23, at New Haven, Conn., and extends as far north as Boston, and as far South as Florida. "After the holidays, Miss Smith and her all-star company of entertainers / including her Jazz Hounds and / other well-known performers, will tour to the Pacific coast. Plays are now under way to present Miss Smith, with her own company, to a Broadway production later in the city, a specially-written musical play, singing the popular songstress in her most popular song hits and pre-riding appearances for a large company of theater BEST MUSICAL COMEDY ATTRACTION THIS SEASON Drake & Walker's Bom Bay Girls H.
