CALMED WEST INDIAN ISLAND Haiti and Santo Domingo, Turbulent Neighbors, Brought to Reason by "Soldiers of the Sea"—Big Work Done That is Known Too Little Deserves Praise of Nation. By QUARTERMASTER SERGEANT C. B. PROCTOR, U. S. Marine Corps. Press dispatches of the present day activities of military men have a tendency to set them forth more as instruments of destruction than as reconstructions and efficient guardians of peace.

United States marines have been great factors in militating toward perpetual peace among the defenseless people of Haiti and Santo Domingo, who were worn out by years of internal strife. These advance agents of American civilization wanted peace so badly that they were willing to fight for it. "The marines have literally taught the Haitians how to live decently," said the Right Revered Charles Blainey Colombo of Puerto Rico and Haiti, during a recent visit to United States. "Before their coming sanitation save in the crudest and most unsatisfactory forms was unknown, fevers and epidemics were as plentiful as revolutions, a press gang was in vogue and the country was the victim of continuous uprisings engineered by political scoundrels, each of whom ravaged the customs money drawer as each in turn came into short lived power. The entry of the United States marines this sorry story. With the wonderful facility and adaptability for which the marines are noted theseance agents of American civilization so changed Haiti that after they had been there four months when I made my annual visitation to the island.

Sanitary systems had been installed, the towns had been cleaned up, former idlers and revolutionists were working happily for living wages, and a new spirit was animating the people. "I want the American people to realize what a big work is being done. It isn't a pleasant task to teach a people how to 'govern straight,' and the man- rine officers and men realize this and yet go at it with stout boasts and high courage. They laugh at the hardships of life. It is their duty, and their motto is 'Semper Fidels.'" POLICEWOMAN ON TRIAL. Gets Out Early With Her Dogs to Follow Fleeing Burglaries Hempstead, N. Y.-Mrs. Lego F. F. Wanner, Long Island's only policewoman, got up at 5 o'clock in the morning to chase burglaries with her trained German police dogs. She was called early by Robert Randewater, chief of police, who put Mrs. Wanner on the force and gave her a star, because he wolvered and wear a star, because he her to aid in catching the early morning burglaries. Motorcycle policemen had seen the burglaries who had been robbing homes of the rich in Hempstead, Westbury, Garden City and other villages and had a call sent to Meadowbrook Farms for Mrs. Wanner and her dogs. Wanner is known here, followed the trail for three miles through stubble and thickets and brooks. Finally she lost it in the main street of Garden City. Story Exemplifies Traditional Sea Caution on American Destroyer. Queensnott — American naval officers are highly amused over a recent "wireless romance" connected with an American destroyer. The story well exemplifies traditional sea caution and hangs on the fact that by reason of two Americans having been roommates at St. John's college at Annapolis years ago information was confirmed at sea that otherwise would have remained doubtful. One man is a civilian doctor, who has taken an important post in Great Britain; the other is a paymaster in the navy. Two days before the destroyers sailed from the United States these old friends ate a farewell dinner. The doctor was to sail by a liner, but was ignorant of the ship's name and date of sailing. The paymaster was under orders to join his destroyer. When several days at sea the destroyer got into distant connection one night with a certain vessel and made a code inquiry as to the vessel's position, course and speed. No direct reply was made, the vessel fearing a submarine trick and the possibility of a stolen code book. Instead of answering a demand was made to the destroyer, "Give the name of your ship in code." The destroyer completed. Even this second wireless was sent out, "What is the name of your paymaster, who is the friend of Dr. —, a passenger aboard this ship?" Then the paymaster of the destroyer was called into the wireless cabin and asked if he knew Dr. —, "Sure!" he replied. "He was my best pal." We were roommates at college and had dinner together two nights before I sailed. Where is he? "The paymaster sent out another radio, saying, "Paymaster —, the doctor's oldest friend." After this corroborative statement the vessel at last gave her position, course and speed. FRENCH GUN SCHOOL IS READY FOR AMERICANS FRENCH GUN SCHOOL IS READY FOR AMERICANS Large Force of Instructors Assembled at Fontainebleau. Special Facilities Offered. Paris—An American newspaper man who has been able to visit the artillery training school at Fontainebleau describes the preparation the French military authorities are making in view of the training of American officers. Whereas otherwise a very stiff examination is necessary to pass into the school, in the case of Americans special facilities will be made. Four months will be required to fit the latter for the grade of what is called here aspirant, which is the grade preceding second lieutenant. Sixteen hundred American pupils are expected at Fontainebleau, and a special code of English speaking instructors has already been formed so new arrivals can start work with a scant knowledge of trigonometry, elementary physics and chemistry. The ordinary procedure is to be assigned to a regiment of artillery. At the depot the men are equipped with uniforms and everything necessary, them to Fortainebleau. It is possible. Men auxiliaries to avail themselves of this opportunity might even come to Europe on their own initiative, for they would be looked after by the American military attaché and the ministry of war and would only require a very limited outfit, consisting of changes of summer and winter underwear and riding boots; if possible, also sugar, chocolate and canned beef. CHATEAU FOR PERSHING One Hundred Motorcars Free For Use of Staff. Paris—General Pershing's headquarters in France already have been selected by the United States embassy and the choice approved by the war department at Washington, although the exact location has not yet been made public. The first American headquarters will be in a chateau offered free by a titled Frenchman and will accommodate General Pershing and his staff. French and American automobile owners already have offered the United States ambassador more than 100 motorcars free for the use of the staff. A new field for American girls has opened in France with the decision to replace the chauffeurs of automobile ambulances, except those at the front, with women drivers. Since the great proportion of French women—are already war workers, it is expected that American girls will fill the positions. DR. SHAW DOES BIT. Sacrifices Coffee, Toast and Boiled Egg to Aid Nation. Pittsburgh.-Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, noted suffragist leader, began "doing her bit" for the United States. Accustomed to two soft boiled eggs and two large pieces of toast for breakfast, Dr. Shaw now eats only one egg and one piece of toast and drinks hot water instead of coffee. "It is a woman's part to conserve the food supply." Dr. Shaw said. "It is just one way for her to do her bit in the great war." THE APPEAL PLAN FOR DEAF AND DUMB. Intensive Production of Munitions in France Gives Them Chance. Paris—The intensive production of munitions in France, with its enormous requirements in hand labor, has opened up a new future for the deaf and dumb, who before the war were excluded from factory work. Now hundreds of them are making shells and parts of automobiles and aeroplanes for the army. Some are earning the equivalent of $4 a day. Manufacturers refused deaf and dumb help previously because of employers' liability laws. There were also prejudices against them because of the supposed difficulty of conveying orders. In practice it has been found the deaf and dumb meet with no more accidents than their comrades. They learn even more quickly than do many normal workmen, and their attention is not only to their conversation their output is of the best finish and equal in volume to that of the best mechanics. The minister of armament has issued a circular to directors of hand labor in munition factories ordering them to prevent discrimination against deaf and dumb applicants for employment as mechanics. FARMERS SHOOT DEER. Say They Are Obliged to Do So to Save Orchard and Crops Barnagel, N. J.-Ocean county farmers are taking the law into their own hands and shooting deer out of season to save their crops from the ravages of herds of these animals. A committee headed by Ezra Parker and W. J. Dougan returned from a visit to the governor and said the state was powerless to protect the farmers or to suspend the price of $100 for each deer killed. The pool of freeholders also was appealed to, but members said they had no authority to save the crops, although Director Otis of the board said he saw a herd of seven deer eating his crops. So desperate have the farmers been because of the meat the deer and the meat. The game wardens have not made any arrests, and it is a question whether they could obtain any convictions if they did. FAREWELLS IN A BOTTLE. First Definite News of Loss of the Frederick In 1916. Baltimore.—A bottle containing nine messages of farewell, washed ashore at the Orkney islands in February, tells briefly of the fate of the old Merchants and Miners' steamship Frederick, which left here in December, 1915, and the following month sailed from New York for Archangel, Russia. The messages were set adrift when the ship was sinking in midcoast. One missive is from George Matthews, steward, who was supposed to have been a Baltimorean. The note is in lead pencil and reads: Friends or whom it may concern: We are sinking in midcoast, and the captain is on left behind. Faithfully, the steward of George Matthews. Goodby. EX-KING IN RED CROSS. Manuel Heads Orthopedic Section of British Organization. Liverpool—Manuel, former king of Portugal, has just been appointed by the British Red Cross society as head of its section of orthopedics, relating to the treatment of deformities in wounded soldiers. The former king has for several years been a work of this character. He is now engaged in a tour of inspection with Colonel Robert Jones, inspector general of orthopedics in the British army, of all the institutions in Great Britain where wounded soldiers are receiving treatment of this character. One of the largest of these institutions is in Liverpool, and Manuel spent the days there, devoting one day to the surgery and operating rooms and acting as an assistant at an operation in a hospital. "Adopt" French Town. Washington.—A group of Washington citizens has formally "adopted" the French town of Noyon. These citizens have chosen to raise $100,000 to restore the devastated town through the French restoration fund. ROSES ON AN APPLE TREE IN DELAWARE o Wilmington, Del.—While it is o seldom one hears of garden flow- ers growing on fruit trees, there is an apple tree in Kent county o which blossoms each spring with pink roses exactly like those grown on the average rosebush, o the excavation that they grow in masters like these. This tree stands in the front yard of the Joseph Zavis farm, on the state road, near Dennys Corner. The tree was planted years ago by Julian Emerson. He experimented at grafting, and his whim led him to try growing flowers on fruit trees. He grafted a tree, the point of the graft, but did not live long enough to see the result of his experiment. This year Mr. Zavis has plucked hundreds of roses from the apple tree. It is an apple tree in name only, for it will never bear fruit. Defective Page AID OF GOVERNORS National Defense Council Issues Warning Against Hysteria. STATE CENSUS IS OPPOSED. Areas Likely to Be Theater of War Operations Designated and Recommendations Presented For Road Building-In Certain Contingencies May Fix Food Prices. Washington—Governors who sought advice from the Council of National Defense concerning their war activities at the national defense conference received their instructions in a detailed statement which covered a hundred phases of the work necessary to get the country in shape for a successful war against Germany. The advice was in the form of answers to stated questions on industrial and military subjects. There ran through the document an apparent warning against hysteria in action which might hamper rather than accomplish the desired results. Here are some of the important points made: First—The national council recommends that the state councils shall encourage economy and discourage extravagant living and the purchase of housing among the people of their respective state. Second—In regard to the postponement of state or municipal works now under way and not of pressing importance the council, generally speaking, "advises that nothing now under way should be abandoned except under pressing necessity; nor should new projects be started not of pressing importance. Third.—The council has not made any suggestion for the postponement in any state of work on co-operative highway projects to such an extent that redistribution of public money will be necessary. Fourth.—The taking of a census by states of men for either military or industrial service, supplementary to federal registration—a step which has been contemplated in some other states—was discouraged. On this point the document says: "The council does not desire such a census for the present. It is deemed unnecessary and when completed and ready for would soon be obsolete owing to rapidly changing industrial conditions." Fifth.—The council may in certain contingencies fix either or both minimum and maximum food prices if authorized by law, but holds that until legislation is passed it is impossible to make a definite statement. In reply to advice in regard to the road building which would make the location and character of the highway better suited for military purposes, the council furnishes a copy of a letter from Secretary Baker to Secretary Houston giving in detail the areas likely to be the theater of war operations and presenting recommendations as to road building for military purposes. The areas in question are: (a) The area about Long Island, including most of the states of Rhode Island, Malone, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut and New York. (b) The area about Chesapeake bay, including much of the states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina and Delaware. (c) The Pacific coast area, including California, Oregon and Washington. (d) The Mexican border, including the southern part of the states of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. (e) The great lakes area, including the states of Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Illinois and parts of Wisconsin and Minnesota. COULDN'T SCARE SAILOR. Officer Told Threatening U Boat Captain to "Shoot Away" London.-Douglas Duff, the fourth officer and the only survivor of the steamer Thracia, sunk by a German submarine on April 27, says in depositions that three hours after the ship was sunk the German submarine approached the capsized boat, the stern of which had been blown off, to which he was clinging, and asked him the usual questions regarding the destroyed steamer and her destination. It was 11 o'clock at night and very dark. The maritime officer first threatened to Duff, who fourth officer, who quotes himself as replying, "Shoot away." The commander then said, according to Duff, that he wouldn't waste powder on an Englishman and left Duff to his fate. He was picked up twelve hours later by a French fisherman. ARMY NEEDS GENERALS. Promotions Expected to Be Made Only Upon Merit. Basis. Washington.—The new national army will require about twenty-nine new major generals and more than 100 brigadier generals, according to officials of the war department. There will be a total of thirty-six divisions, each of which will have one major general and four brigadier generals. The army act empowers the president to appoint officers in the discretion of the belief president that the president and secretary of war both are determined only upon merit and special fitness. This policy would coincide exactly with those of France and England, which are advancing younger men to the higher commands. WOMEN CAN HELP WIN WAR IN THE KITCHEN Do Your Own Marketing and Put Family on a Ration Basis. New York.—Every woman can help win the war in her own kitchen, says Ida Vera Simonton of the Vigilantes, if she will read, remember and obey the following "twelve commandments." Avoid waste and practice the strict- Avoid waste and practice the strictest economy. Put your family on a ration basis. Do your own marketing. Select foods of nourishing and sustaining qualities.

Washington. — With the advance guard of the United States army under Major General Pershing ordered to the front in France, now is the time for the last big drive by the army of the soil that is aiming at a million food gardens this year, says Charles Lathrop Pack, president National Emergency Food Garden Commission. The garden recruits should keep in mind that there are a number of vegetables that still can be planted, and those of you who have not started should do so now. Write to the National Emergency Food Garden Commission, 210 Maryland avenue, and get free garden primer and then get busy. Navy beans are one of the best late crops to plant on a light soil or on meadow or blue glass that is to be put under cultivation. Lima beans may be planted as late as June 15. Late potatoes may be planted up to July 1 if the seed bed is in good shape and the seed sound. Sweet potatoes can be grown with success on sandy land. Sweet corn of short season variety may be planted up to July 15 or even a little later. Late cabbage may be set as late as July 1. String beans may be planted as late as July 15. As late as July 11 cucumbers may be planted. Good tomato plants of the season may be planted any time in June. Pumpkins may be planted in June among sweet or field corn or, if room, separately in hills about eight-tenths of a foot apart. Lettuce grows best if planted in early spring or fall. Late or winter radishes may be sown early in August. With proper watering, however, successive crops of good radishes may be grown throughout the summer. Table beets to be pickled, canned or stored for winter use may be planted in June. Let every garden soldier go to it for food f. o. b. the kitchen door, then write for the canning prim and get instruction on how to conserve the result of your efforts. WAR LESSONS FOR U. S. Chief One to Learn is to Place Competent Men in Leadership. Cincinnati—War lessons the United States can learn of Great Britain were explained by William Hard, investigator and magazine writer, before the joint sessions of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and the National Machine Tool Builders' association in convention here recently. He chose a lesson, Mr. Hard said, would be to instigate him with the control of the navy. No civilian, he said, should be intrusted with so important a duty. Affairs of the army and navy in action should be given into the hands of "competent" army and navy men, Mr. Hard said. SPEAKER'S SON WEARS KHAKI IN CONGRESS Washington—Bennett Clark, son of the speaker of the house, received an ovation when he en- abled the chambers wearing a khaki. Young Clark entered training in the officers' reserve corps at Fort Myer and returned to the capitol when the "rookies" were excused from duty. Representative Mann, the minority leader, spied Mr. Clark in the corridor back of the house chamber. The Republican leader took the speaker's son by the arm and figuratively dragged him into the hall. He bowed confidently to the house arose and applauded the student officer.

A Liberty Loan Bond is a solemn promise of the United States to pay at maturity the amount of the bond to the holder thereof, and to pay interest semi-annually each year from date of the issuance of the bond until it is fully and finally paid. WHAT IS THE SECURITY FOR A LIBERTY LOAN BOND? The faith and honor of the United States, backed by all of the resources of the nation and the American people. A Liberty Loan Bond is a mortgage on all the resources and taxing of the government and all of the resources of the United States. WHAT IS THE NATURE OF A LIBERTY LOAN BOND. There are two kinds of Liberty Loan Bonds. Bearer bonds are to be issued in denominations of $50, $100, $500 in these Bearer Bonds, which are made payable to the bearer, have interest coupons attached when they are detached by the holder when the interest installments they represent payable, and can be cashed at any bank name as a United States treasury note. Registered bonds are to be issued, which are registered as to both principal and interest, in denominations of $5,000, $10,000, $50,000 and $100,000; the amount of interest due will be paid out semi-annually to the holders of these registered bonds. WHAT ARE THE TERMS OF A LIBERTY LOAN BOND? Liberty Loan Bonds of the first issue of June 15, 1917, are to bear fund of June 15, 1917, and run for thirty years, except that the bond serves the right to pay them fifteen years after date. If this right is not exercises by the government fifteen years from date, the bonds will run for twenty years. These bonds bear interest at 3½ per cent per annum, and the interest is payable semi-annually on the 15th day of December and the 15th day of June in each year. WHAT SPECIAL ADVANTAGES HAVE THESE LIBERTY LOAN BONDS? One especial advantage no other bonds, national, state, municipal or corporal have is that if the United States have that continuance of this war shall issue other bonds to a higher rate of interest, the holders of these Liberty bonds have the right to exchange their Liberty bonds for bonds bearing the higher rate of interest, for dollar. WHAT? They are non-taxable. If your city, county and state taxes are three mills on a dollar, a not unusual tax, these bonds are to ordinary corporate bonds or other investments bearing 6½ per cent. In addition no federal tax which war conditions may later make necessary when these bonds. The only tax these bonds do is the inheritance tax, which applies all property of all kinds whatsoever. HOW ARE LIBERTY BONDS OBTAINED? Blank forms of applications for the purchase of these bonds can be obtained from the Treasury Department, any federal reserve bank, a state or private bank, any express office and any postoffice in the United States, a bank or postmaster will aid applicant in filling out his blank and the other acts necessary to obtain these bonds. It is not necessary to advertise these bonds to sell the whole issue, but it is earnestly desired that this loan shall be a popular loan, a loan by and from the people at large of the United States, and not alone from banks, companies and financiers. To that small amounts are to be issued of small denominations, and subscribers for small amounts are to be supplied before the subscribers for large amounts are granted their full subscription. IS IT PATRIOTIC TO PURCHASE THESE BONDS? Yes; every American who subscribes to the justice of the course of the United States in entering and ending war we are now engaged in should be to the Liberty Loan Bond issue to the extent of his or her financial ability. Every American who subscribes to the belief that an American should submit by his or her country should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. Every American who loves America and is jealous of America's honor should subscribe to the Liberty Loan Bond issue. The real loan is to be more determined by the number of Americans participating in the amount subscribed. The spirit of the loan is going to be judged abroad, especially in cities, more by the number of its American men and women who support the bond issue than by the more amount of money subscribed. YOUR PATRIOTIC BUY—BUY A LIBERTY LOAN BOND BOND A LIBERTY LOAN BOND IS A MORTGAGE ON THE UNITED STATES. REMEMBER THE LUSITANIA AND THE BOND LOAN BOND. WHY "LIBERTY LOAN" THE $5,000,000 bond issue of this year is named "The Liberty Loan 1917" because it is to be a loan from a free people to be used in freeing the world. The loan of a liberty-loving people to be devoted to the establishment of liberty in Europe and on the high seas. The loan of the great democracy of the New York to redress the wrongs and support the cause of democracy of the Old. $2.40 PER YEAR: TO SEEK EXPLORER Third Relief Ship Will Go After MacMillan, Reported Safe. TWO EXPEDITIONS FAILED. The Neptune, Commanded by Captain Bartlett, Will Start For Arctic In July—Bartlett Famous From His Connection With the Explorations of Peary and Stefansson. New York—For the third time a relief ship is being sent out to go for and bring back Donald MacMillan, the explorer who went to the arctic in 1913 to look for the new continent which Rear Admiral Peary thought he had discovered several years before and which he had named Crocker Land. MacMillan sent back word in 1915 that he had made a sledge trip of 130 miles across the ice in the direction of the supposed continent and had found no trace of land, and many scientists have since supposed that what Rear Admiral Peary saw was an extraordinarily vivid mirage. According to a message received from the Shetland islands, the MacMillan party are safe, and Bartlett will go north to bring them back. The new expedition will be commanded by Captain Robert A. Bartlett, famous from his connection with the explorations of Peary and Stefansson, and will sail from St John's, Newfoundland, in the first week of July. Photo by American Press Association. CAPTAIN BARTLETT. The vessel obtained is the steam sealer Neptune, formerly known as the best vessel in the Newfoundland fishing fleet, but more recently carrying coal for the British government. The troubles of the MacMillan party began shortly after their departure in July, 1913, when their ship was wrecked on Barge Point, Labrador. The party and supplies were transferred to another vessel and reached Ethat that fall. In the summer of 1915, after reports had been received of the activities of the party, Dr. Edmund Otis Hovey, chairman of the committee in charge of the expedition and curator of the department of geology in the American Museum of Natural History, started out with a relief party in the George B. Cluett. Dr. Hovey reached Eeth and brought all the party except Mr. MacMillan and two companions, who had gone on a hunting trip, despairing of any rescue party that year. The Cluett was caught in the ice herself that winter, although several of the members of the party got out by sledge. Meanwhile last spring the steamer Demer, with a kite, accompanied me, was chartered in Greenland shipment. Dr. Hovey's plight was received, but she was last heard of on Aug. 20 of last year, lightning-ice in Melville bay. The Cluett returned to Newfoundland last September, but Dr. Hovey and Elmer Ekblaw of her party, together with George B. Comer, the ice plot, are presumably in the neighborhood of Ethan. Mr. MacMillan's remaining companions are Dr. Harrison J. Hunt and C. Small. TUTOR KEEPS HIS JOB. This Girl Need Not Attend Public School. Kansas City, Mo.-Miss Elva Dieselhorst, fourteen, several times in juvenile court because of the refusal of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Austin Dieselhorst, to permit her to attend public school, need not go to public school. Judge Porterfield has decided to permit the retention of John Sterling, her twenty-two-year-old private tutor. The tutor will continue to give Miss Dieselhorst lessons in arithmetic, geography, writing, spelling, Greek history, reading, hygiene and grammar. He must report his pupil's progress, however, to the juvenile court the first month. Judge Porterfield ordered. Neither Miss Dieselhorst nor her mother nor her father appeared in court, but Sterling did. Judge Porterfield looked him over, studied the curriculum which he said constituted his young pupil's daily task and decided the arrangement might stand. ISSUED WEEKLY J. Q.

AN INSULT TO PATRIOTS The registration for the selective draft is over. It passed without any serious disturbances anywhere in the United States, although many arrests were made of people who were guilty of aiding the anti-registration propaganda. So far as the dispatches show, not a single colored citizen of the United States was delinquent in any way whatever. And the colored people constitute the only group of which this can be said. Now that the registration is over, it must not be forgotten, the colored citizens were subjected to an infamous insult and one which was not offered to any other class of citizens. The insult consisted of the inscription in the lower left hand corner of the registration card. "If person is of African descent tear off this corner." It was an insulting classification, separation and 'segregation to which no other group was subjected, not even German allens and spies or SPECIAL SEGREGATED HEAVENS FOR ALL COLORED RACES.

Or put it this way: The northerner is a great friend of the Negro but not of a Negro; the outherner is a great friend of a Negro, but not of the Negro. Prof. Munsterberg once described the race as "passive at every turn of fortune," yet within the last year Negroes by the thousand have actively undertaken to find a place for themselves. They have come north. It was a huge mistake. They escape barbarous punishment for their occasional crimes while winning no appreciation for their habitual virtues. They are disliked. When their presence be comes a burden, as at East St. Louis, they are abused. It is on these terms only that they enjoy the longed for "liberties of the north"—its "social equality," for instance. But do they really enjoy that? Our observation goes to show that the Negro is happiest when the white race asserts its superiority, provided that sympathy and understanding accompany the assertion. Not long ago a Virginian noticed a very gloomy black porter in a northern hotel, and, learning that the Negro had come from Virginia, said, "You —— —— black THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgmen the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than th world, the countena I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. of experience among the United States and silent or encouraged tion or other things ly become docile, un- MANS. as. for the Colored races of CH PUBLICITY BUREAU, Kong Shanghai Pekin ore Bangkok fool go back to Virginia!" The reply revealed much: "O, Cunnel, dem's de just kind wuds dat's been spoken to me since Ah come un noff!" Southerners insist that "the nigger must be kept down." They enforce the color line. Yet they will work side by side with Negroes, befriend them in adversity, and overlook their minor failings. Gradually they are working toward the results suggested in the carton on this page. They do not hate Negroes. In their heart they like them. Said Dooley: "I'm naught troubled whin the naygur. is amon's his oppressors, Hinnessy. What throbbles me is whin he falls into the hands iv his liberators." In the same city where the foregoing 'vomit was spewed up, Miss Sophonisba Breckenridge, of the University of Chicago, a Southern woman and one of the famous Kentucky family of Breckenridge, said: "The cry has gone up from a large number of people: What are we going to do with these 'dreadful men and women' who are coming to us from the South? I say we should be here to welcome them, to help them, to give them a chance to make Chicago a better home than they could find in the South." A NEEDED WAR MEASURE The government of the United States ought to stop lynching as a needed war measure. As a military necessity, loyal patriotic citizens ought to have a chance for their lives and no man, even though he be innocent of crime is safe when the lyncher is abroad. The stern hand of military law ought to descend upon the people who are defying the law and making a mockery of democracy. The daily newspapers often contain "scare heads" and accounts of horrible man burnings, where the victim is drenched with oil and burned at the stake. If some of these papers should get out of the country and fall into the hands of the Germans who have despolled Belgium or into the hands of the Turks who have massacred the Armenians they might use them as a justification of their atrocities. Loyal patriotic citizens of the United States demand the suppression of lynching and the summary punishment of the lynchers as a needed war measure. "CONSISTENCY, THOU ART A JEWEL" The Chicago Tribune, noted for its inconsistency and illogical reasoning, has an article on Home Rule for Ireland and a free Poland. It also says: "We can find plenty of reasons for insisting that the war shall free the Armenians from the Turks, shall give Greece a republic, Russia a democracy, Belgium an assurance of integrity, France a promise of security, and that it shall enable the statute of Liberty in New York harbor to shine undimmed. "We do not ask that our allies free the Moroccan, the Hindus, or the Koreans, but it seems within reason to ask that they give Home Rule to the Irish and thus help the United States in one of its own local problems." Why does not the Tribune go the full length in democracy and ask freedom for the Moroccan, the Hindus --- who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, ant, may condemn, of relatives may be arts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the nces of relatives or and the Koreans? Is it because their complexions are a trifle darker than the other nationalities mentioned? "But in a war which elects democracy as the principle there ought to be a different condition in some of the lands which are allied to the principle. The United States, which in a real sense is about to fight for the security of the United States, and in equally real sense is about to fight for the principle of democracy, would fight better if the allies to which it is joined were better established in consistency." Speaking of consistency, the Tribune could do a great work along that line by advocating justice for the colored American citizens who are insulted, and oppressed by the state governments of the South and whose lives are never safe from the murderous Southern mob. But instead it has not been a very long time since this same Tribune advocated the stripping from the colored citizen the few rights he now enjoys. "Consistency, thou art a jewel." THE GUARDIAN ON DR. FRISSELL Commenting on the editorial in the Richmond Planet, which is printed in this issue, objecting to one of the points in Dr. Frissell's recent memorial, the Guardian says: "Thus saith in very truth the Planet, "We rise also to deny directly that the 'quiet service' lives of Booker Washington or of Russia Moton secured recognition of rights. The most striking thing about the race-leader career of Dr. Washington was that coincident with it went the greatest period of loss of citizenship and of legal debarment from rights even known in any race and especially during the time Dr. Washington preached most pronouncedly the doctrine of 'quietly deserving' rights. No further exposition of that matter by us is any longer needed. "We warn Dr. Frissell against reviving the Booker Washington-no-egitation issue. Dr. Washington's own friends do not relish or desire it." THE NEW HAMPTON MOVEMENT. The meaning of the sudden "Hampton Patriotic Movement" now being pulled off in Chicago, Detroit and other Northern cities isn't quite clear. THE APPEAL has received a number of letters and newspaper clippings from the daily papers bearing on the subject and gleans from them the idea that there is something queer about the "movement." The papers state that one Dr. Charles F. Taylor of New York, one of the leaders in the "movement" who is now making speeches in Chicago, where the segregation question has reached an acute stage, has on several occasions asserted to white audiences: "The negro wants segregation as much as or more than the white man." This statement is not only false, but it is dangerous and unfriendly doctrine to be disseminated by the representative of an institution which claims to stand for "Christian" training and "uplift" and all that sort of stuff. The writer of one of the letters received by THE APPEAL, states that she visited the Hampton exhibit at the Hotel La Salle where she was informed by the charming lady who has charge of the exhibit, that "the DARKIES are making great progress." What does it mean? --- The government is a victim to the High Cost of Living just as most of us poor mortals are for according to reports this week the expenditures for the fiscal year thus far have reached $1,600,000,000, more than $800,000,000 in excess of last years expenditures up to the present date and thus makes a new high record in American history. The chief item of the increase—$607,500,000—was purchase of the obligations of foreign governments in exchange for loans advanced to the Allies. The sum does not represent by approximately $140,000,000 the total amount authorized in loans. The general assembly of the Presbyterian Church of the United States in session at Dallas, Texas, has put its official ban on Sunday sports, the Sunday newspaper, liquor and tobacco. As the meeting is being held in a part of the country where lynching and burning men at the stake is one of the Sunday sports of the mobs which fill up on bad whiskey and squirt tobacco juice, THE APPEAL suggests that a resolution denouncing lynching be adopted. Former Alderman Oscar DePriest of Chicago is being tried under an indictment to protect gambling houses in that city. The trial will to a great extent be a spectacular battle between colored attorneys. Attorney Edward S. Wilson, assistant states attorney is to make the opening address for the state. The famous Edward H. Morris will be the chief aid for the defense. It will be a battle royal. According to statistics prepared by Frederick L. Hoffman for "Spectator," Memphis, Tenn., has the unenviable distinction of being the murder metropolis of the United States. More homicides were committed in Memphis than in any other city in proportion to the population. The East St. Louis riot situation is to be investigated thoroughly by the Illinois State Council of Defense. A sub committee is now in session taking testimony. WITH "MARKED CARDS" In Its Army of Democracy U. S. A. Begins With a New Jim- Crowism Added to the Rest to Fight for World Democracy, but to Have Distinctions of Col- or in Our Own Army—Denial of Equality. (From the Journal, the leading daily paper of Boston, Mass., June 28, 1917.) THE DEAREST PROMISE IN THE WHOLE OF THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES IS THE PROMISE OF EQUALITY FOR ALL, REGARDLESS OF RACE, COLOR OR PREVIOUS CONDITION OF SERVI- TUDE. But it is not always pleasant for a Negro to read that promise. "Marked Card." Nor will the Negro feel a thrill of promise when he comes to write down his name for service to his country. For the registration card makes a distinction of color. The man who has his name to that piece of pasteboard is at the disposal of this government in the That should be enough. But—the government asks that he shall specify his "color." Literally, this government is beginning with marked cards. We don't need to review the fine record of the African race in fighting the slave trade in America. Its men have been in the slave trade wherever there came an opportunity to serve. History vouches for that. Now a Jim-Crow Registration And here, when we come to fight for democracy, we find distinctions drawn according to the color of a man's skin. Negroes have not fared well during the present national administration. They have disappeared from public offices, and Jim Crow grip of the South has grown firmer. And NOW A JIM CROW REGISTRATION. Race and color in our "Army of Democracy." If we were to define democracy as applied to the army of a democratic nation, we should picture men of all races and all crops grouped together in equality. A white millionaire's son might share a tent with Negro and a Chinese. But—"color"! Race, color and previous condition of servitude apparently are to be recognized in our army of democracy. Blunder No. 1. Must Be Wiped Out. But it must be wiped out. If an aristocratic snobbishness has drawn up the registration blanks, a demotion decency must later deny the distinction. Else we make a joke of our highest boast. SPECIMEN AD Submitted by THE APPEAL For Use in the Newspapers of the East St. Louis, Mo., June 4—A fund of $1,000,000 is to be put into religious publicity in the secular papers of Japan, India, and India, according to announcement, made today in the church publicity conference of the convention of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World, by the Rev. George M. Fowles of New York, treasurer of the board of foreign missions of the Methodist Episcopal church Mad Savagery (Springfield Republican) While we are so critical of the nations known as our enemies it is morally disconcerting to have staged in America such mad savagery as the latest burning to death of a colored man by a mob in Tennessee. The colored man was clearly, guilty, it seems that the fendish murder of a white girl in malaise in fendishness gets us nowhere correcting or even punishing a criminal assailant. When race feeling is involved it impossible to conceive of anything so disastrous in its ultimate effects as the treatment which mobs occasionally give to these black men. At a time when Americans need to show capacity for mass discipline and respect authority, we are forced to contemplate these hideous spectacles of mass brutishness and social anarchy. The Cause of Migration Kansas (Ga.) independent When meat was 15c a pound and flour $8.00 he colored laborer received from $4.00 to $8.00 a week. Now 'meat is 30c a meat and flour $16.00 a barrel, he is receiving same wages. He cannot live at this and the white man cannot expect him to remain in the South and live on the starvation wages he is paying him when the fields and the factories in the North and West are offering him living wages. If the white man will suppress lynching and lawlessness in the districts, pay the colored man living wages, give him a squar deal on the farm, schools, open the doors of the shops, give the stories to his prowess, and let him labor unions, municipal ordinances (to keep colored men from leaving the South) will be unnecessary. in the Nashville Clarion) Down in Houston, Texas are some elevators in public buildings labeled "NEGROES GOS NOT ALLOWED." Generous Classification! Such signs as the exceedingly rapid measure, for the exceedingly rapid measure, in which the Colored men are depopulating the South. They can be neither blamed nor censure for leaving a town like this. They have hearts and souls and human pride, just like the people of other races. Must Have a Place in School Our naval training camp has every nationality under the sun. As a'rid flag to flout into the face of the bull, we have Chinamen out there, the Filipino out there, the Greek out there, the Hebrew out there, the Italian out there, and God himsher, only knows what else out there, but we do know that if we are anywhere near there we are near the bathroom with a mop and broom. Space must be made for the boy of the Colored race in the school for which we are paying taxes. Defective Page J. REV, JAMES S.

First Colored Man to Be Elected Suffragan Bishop Some of the papers are making a great "to do" over the election of a suffragan bishop calling it "progress." As a matter of fact a suffragan bishop is a "jim crow" bishop. He has no real power and is subject to the whims and caprices of the bishop under whom he serves. The election of such a bishop is an emphatic drawing of the color line. It is not progress, but retrogression. LET AGITATION GO ON, SAYS REV. F. J. GRIMKE. Commends Protest by Guardian and Planet—Race Will Protest Till White America Accords the Rights Which Belong to Every American Citizen—Steady Decline of Rights Under B. T. Washington Policy. (From the Boston Guardian.) Washington, D. C. May 1, 1917. Dear Mr. Trotter,—I have just read in the last issue of the Guardian your editorial, including the editorial of Mr. John Mitchell of the Planet, in which he administers a very just and timely rebuke to Dr. Drissell for some things which he says in the last issue of the Southern Workman. ment, who will prepare and conduct the same. The total attendance will be twelve hundred fifty, of whom two hundred fifty will be noncommissioned officers of colored regiments of the Regular Army, to be sent on detached service status, and one thousand citizens either enlisted under Section 54 National Defense Act for three months beginning June 18th, with agreement to accept appointment tendered, or members of Guard whose status will be as in the case of National Guardsm now in training camp. 2. The contingents of citizens and National Guardsm from the various departments is as follows: Northeastern Department 40, Eastern Department 240, Southeastern Department 430, Central Department 195 Rights Declined Under Washington. It is amazing that at this late day, and after the STEADY DECLINE OF OUR RIGHTS UNDER MR. WASHINGTON'S POLICY of "quiet, impresentible service"—that Dr. Prissle should be attempting to submission pernicious, un-American, unmany, heresy of quiet submission to wrong What God directed his prophet to do was: "Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and declare unto my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins." And that is what we have been doing and will continue to do, until White America heeds the message, turns from its evil ways and accords to the colored man the rights which justly belongs to him as much as to any other American citizen. Dr. Frissell had just as well understand now, once for all, that the policy for which he stands, as regards our rights, will never be accepted by the colored man. and the inculcation of a fellow comes with very little grace from those who men who never think of following it when their own rights are involved. Think Colored Unlike Whites It is because, after all, they think that the Negro is made of a little different clay, and therefore that it is alright for HIM TO QUITLY SUB TO WHAT WHITE MEN WOULD NOT EXPLOIT MEN TO SUBMIT TO. AND WILL NOT SUBMIT TO WITHOUT THE MOST VIGOROUS PROTEST? Put Themselves In Our Place If some of our white friends would put themselves in the place of the colored man, and realize that there is no essential difference between the colored man and themselves, they would be saved from some of the foolish things which they recommend at times. Let the Agitation Go On: Let the Planet, let the Guardian, let all the colored newspapers, continue to speak out, and, in every other legitimate way, LET THE AGITATION GO ON. It is in vain for Dr. Frissell, or any one else to try to stop it. Airs for equality of rights for all years, regardless of race or condition FRANCIS J. GRIMKE OFFICIAL NOTICE.

It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him.

ATTORNEY J. LOUIS ERVIN Wins Another Great Victory and Gets a Verdict of $4,350 for His Client. Attorney J. Louis Ervin, who defended Wesley Gresham and cleared him of the charge of murder in the first degree a short time ago, on the 17th of May, 1917, secured a verdict of $4,350 for Mrs. Elizabeth Kaufman, (German), 1030 N.

The Liberty Bond Committee is doing all sorts of stunts to call the attention of the people to the sale of the Liberty Bonds, and one of the unique features is "Wezan." the trained goat mascot of Perezan temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, that is parading the streets like a sandwiched sign bearer and attracting much attention. His goatship is in charge of Mr. Oliver Taylor, who has been authorized by the committee to boost for the bonds which every one should buy.

Mr. Clarence W. Wigington, the architect who formerly was employed in the architectural department of St. Paul, but who has been sojourning in Davenport, Iowa, for several months, is again in the city to remain, having claimed a position with T. D. Macault, the Home Builder, 6023 Merchants Bank Building, where he has charge of the architectural department. During the stay of Mr. Wigington in Davenport, he was employed by the Gordon Van Tine Co., the largest home builders in the world, with whom he severed his connection entirely of his own accord. In a letter of recommendation which was given to Mr. Wigington by the manager of the architectural department of that firm, he says: "We have CLARENCE W. WIGINGTON found Mr. Wigington to be a thorough and conscientious man, and he has turned out some of the best and finest looking drawings that have ever been done in this office," which speaks volumes for the efficiency of Mr. Wigington. Mrs. Wigington is still in Davenport, having been detained by the illness of one of her children, but she and the children will return to St. Paul within a week or two.

Potatoes are not now the "poor man's food," says R. W. Thatcher, of the division of agricultural biochemistry, University of Pennsylvania. Potatoes contain, on the average, 78 cent of water and 22 cent of actual food material. A bushel of potatoes, therefore, contains only a little over 13 pounds of actual food substance. At the present retail price of potatoes, $3.20 a bushel, each pound of food which they contain costs over 24 cents. A pound of rice which contains 88 per cent of food and 12 per cent of water costs $1½ cents, so that one pound of food almost exactly like that in potatoes can be bought as rice which costs less than 10 cents. A tencent loaf of bread contains about one ounces of food and 6 ounces of water; hence a pound of food as bread, which is a much better balanced food than either rice or potatoes, can be bought for $12½ cents. Wheat flour furnishes a pound of food at a cost of 6 cents. At present prices, potatoes are four times as costly as wheat flour, twice as expensive as baker's bread, and two and a half times as expensive as rice, the food which most closely resembles them in the character of food furnished. People can well afford to stop eating potatoes altogether until the price falls to less than half what it is at present. STATE'S JUNE 1 CASH BALANCE SETS RECORD.

EVERY PERSON who receives THE APPEAL is expected to pay for it; and, it is a violation of honesty, honor and law not to do so. THIS APPIES TO EVERY ONE, WITHOUT EXCEPTION. Are you, reader, honest, honorable and law-abiding? Think about it. There is no law to compel any one to receive a newspaper who does not wish to do so, but there is a law that compels one to pay for a newspaper if it is received. There are many persons who receive the APPEAL as regularly as it is issued and failed to pay for it. Think about it. Don't stop at thinking about it, either, but kindly come or send to the office and pay what you honestly, honorably, legally owe. There is not one single subscriber on our list who is ACTUALLY UNABLE to pay for the paper if the desire to do so is strong enough. There is no desire or intention to do so, but if this article is marked with a blue strip it is to remind you that YOU owe for THE APPEAL. Please come or send to the office, Court Block, 24 E. 4th street, suite 301-302, third floor, and pay what you owe. Take elevator. Few readers of newspapers fully and clearly understand the law governing subscriptions. Below are the decisions of the United States Supreme Court upon the subject: Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary when subscription expires, are considered as wishing to renew their subscription. If the subscriber order a discontinuance of their periodical the publisher may continue to send them until all dues are paid. If the subscriber continues to take the periodical from the postoffice to which it is directed, or receives it from the carrier, he is responsible until he has settled his bill and ordered the paper discontinued. If subscriber moves to other places without the publisher and the papers are sent to the former address the subscriber is held responsible. If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end of the time if they do not wish to continue taking it, otherwise the publisher is authorized to send it, and the subscriber will be responsible until express notice with payment of all arrearages is made.
