Hope to Open Up Country That Has Been Long Closed to Our Trade. Washington—Advices from Bogota say American business men are invading Colombia for a commercial campaign and are confident the pending Colombian treaty will be ratified by the United States. By the proposed treaty Colombia is to be recompensated for the loss of Panama. The Colombian people felt hostility toward the United States for the part it played, and for a long period the Colombian field was particularly closed to American business. With the end of the European war, European business men swarmed to Colombia. American business men were not far behind them. The Call chamber of commerce, on the west coast, has received notice from the United States food administration of a project visit by a commission of business men from here. The Americans are prepared to negotiate a new system of business credits to meet the needs of Colombian men. This will be the beginning of a new era in trade with South American countries, it is said, for the chief complaints of the Latin-Americans against the methods of the United States concerns has been on credits and packing, the ministry of agriculture and commerce ordered to give every assistance to the American. In the handling of their samples by remitting custom duties, and special trains will be put at their disposal to visit various sections of the Interior. The party will stop at the port of Buena Ventura, where extensive improvements are being made on plans submitted by American engineers. American interests are concentrated on the west coast. Columbia because IS HIT AS SNAKE CHARMER Abyssinian Flings Anaconda Around Cage Wake It It Washington. — Duke Dodjazmatch Nado, a member of the imperial Abyssinian delegation now visiting this'country, picked up the huge anaconda in the Washington zoo and calmly shook the sleeping reptile into consciousness. Onlookers gasped. The delegation was visiting the zoo, where specimens of the wild beasts which were sent to former President Roosevelt from Abyssinia by Emperor Menelik II are quartered. They had paused by the cage of the anaconda. It was asleep. One of the party expressed a desire to see the snake move and the guide prodded it with a stick, but it dosed on. When further proddings failed to disturb it Duke Nado thrust his hand into the cage and, taking the reptile by the throat, shook it until it quivered and squirmed into wakefulness. Then he quietly tossed it to the far end of the cage. His act gave the party a thrill, but the duke's modest department indicated that snake charming is no novelty to him. MAY DOUBLE POTASH PRICES German Syndicate Asks Permit to Meet Deficit and High Costs. Welmar, Germany—The potash syndicate has asked the government to grant permission to raise the price of potash 100 per cent owing to the increased cost of production. The syndicate says it has deficit of 40,000,000 marks ($11,500,000) for the first three months of this year and declares it will be forced to shut down unless it can increase its selling price.

Federal Government Perfecting New Forms With Many Advantages Which Insured Men Will Want In Place of Present Contracts. Washington.—A busy place these days of demobilization is the bureau of war risk insurance of the treasury department of the United States, with its 14,000 employees and its files containing 30,000,000 records. Demobilization is having the effect of making a large proportion of the soldiers become transient for an indefinite period after leaving the service. Many of the original addresses of these men become useless, as thou-sands and night to write to the bureau. In this way the men are躲 touch with the bureau and are neglecting their insurance. Hence the efforts of the bureau to keep in touch with demobilized men are increasingly difficult, as demobilization progresses. Every possible agency is being used, including the Red Cross and public organizations of many kinds. Uncle Sam is perfecting plans for the new forms of government insurance which the demobilized soldier will want in place of his war risk insurance. This cannot change his war risk insurance, nor insurance unless his monthly premiums are paid up to date on his old insurance. Advice to Soldiers The advice which is being sent out from the bureau of war risk insurance to the soldiers who have left the service may be summarized thus: Hold on to your war risk insurance. Keep up your premium payments. If you have permitted your insurance to lapse—even if you have formally canceled it—hasten to reinstate it under the new and liberal provisions for reinstatement. Write for advice or information to the "Insurance Division, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Washington, D. C." Give your full name and your address, your rank at the time of applying for insurance; if in the army, your army serial number, the number of your insurance certificate, if known. In sending check or money order for your premium, make it payable to the "Treasurer of the United States" and mail it to "Premium Receipt Station, Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Washington, D. C." Uncle Sam provided every soldier, sailor and marine with a right to a policy for $10,000. If you can't keep all of it, keep at least part of it. You can reduce it if you have to. You can convert to a government endowment policy which will assure financial comfort in later years. All policies issued by the government contain a total disability clause, making them payable at any time you may become totally and permanently disabled, regardless of your age. Service man, after his return to civil life, may engage in any occupation, no matter how hazardous, without affecting his insurance. No physical or medical examination is necessary for the conversion of policies. Your government insurance is protected from the claims of creditors. Neither you nor your beneficiary ever will have to pay a cent taxes to the government on the proceeds of your government insurance. You may pay your premiums by the month, without having to pay anything extra on account of additional expense to the government of collecting monthly taxes. You may pay quarterly, semi-annually or annually. The government pays all the expenses of running the business. You may have the whole month in which to pay the premium for that month. If you fail to pay and your policy lapses, you may get it back through provisions for restatement. Cash and Loan Values. After one year the new government policies will have guaranteed cash and loan values, also paid up insurance and extended term insurance values. The "cash value" of a new government policy is the amount the government gives you if you choose to give up your insurance. The "loan value" means that you can borrow money on your policy up to 94 per cent of the cash value. "Paid-up insurance and extended term insurance policy" are the new policies. If you stop paying premiums after one year, the government allows one of the following options: (1) To remain insured for a certain time without cost to you. (2) To receive a policy for a smaller amount, which will be paid, no matter when you die, and on which you will not have to pay any more premiums. One of the most valuable features of a government insurance policy is that it provides for the disability of the holder, as well as for his death. When for any reason you become totally and permanently disabled, you not only do not have to pay any more premiums, but the government pays you the full monthly sum called for by your policy every month, no matter how long you Government to Take Census of Game Birds Washington, D. C.—To gather up-to-date and reliable information on the present condition of game birds and animals in the Western States, as compared with previous years, the United States department of agriculture, through its bureau of biological survey, has sent blanks to thousands of hunters, and has asked that they be filled out with as complete and definite information as possible. Recently, 1,000 of these blanks were sent to a selected list of hunters in all counties of Washington state. The information which will be obtained from the replies, together with that supplied by the field representatives of the bureau, will give reliable information on the game bird and animal population of this region. The bureau has already issued reports regarding mammals and birds, including the game species, of Wyoming, New Mexico and Colorado. Information for reports is now being collected in the states of Montana, Arizona, Wisconsin and Washington. THE APPEAL. CARRY SILVER SAFELY Trains Cross Continent Without Loss of an Ounce. Mint Director Revealed How War-Time Shipments to India Were Handled. Washington.—Now that the government has completed its war-time shipments to India of silver from melted dollars, Director of the Mint Baker has disclosed how thousands of tons of the metal were hauled from the Philadelphia mint to San Francisco in special trains, guarded by armed men, without loss of an ounce and without general knowledge of the procedure. Eighteen of these treasure trains made the trip across the continent in the 12 months ending last April 23, with the silver like big express cars composing a special train. With automatic pistols at their hips and shotgun on their laps sat in each car, and laver guarded the secret transfer of the white bars from train to ship at San Francisco. Each silver brick weighed about 62 pounds and was worth $1,000, and each train carried between $5,000,000 and $10,000,000 of the bricks. Wrecking of the trains and theft of the metal by bandits was considered an ever present menace to be guarded against. Guarded shipments of silver dollars also were made from the United States treasury in Washington and from the New Orleans subtreasury in Philadelphia. These dollars traveled in stout bags of 1,000 each and were handled much like bags of sugar, except that armed men always were near More than 235,000,000 silver dollars were melted and shipped to India during the year, to meet urgent war demands for collage. DOGS AND HENS ARE WISER Physician Araigins the Modern Practice of Treating Influenza Patients. New Orleans, La.—"When a dog gets sick, what's the first thing he does? He sticks his nose between his hind legs. What does he do it for? So that he can breathe the warm air. When a chicken gets sick, the first thing it is to do is to suck its head under its wing—so that it can breathe the warm air. Physicians who advocate the cold-air treatment for the 'flu' have less sense than either dogs or chickens." Such is the opinion rendered by Dr. Cooper Holtzlew of Chattanooga, former president of the Association of Surgeons of the Southern Railway. He said it before the hundreds of surgeons who attended the twenty-third annual meeting of the association, hold in this city. He was arranging the modern practice of treating influenza patients in the open air. He insisted that the best treatment for influenza is to keep the patient under such conditions of care and freedom from exposure as were wont to obtain when our mothers of the old school used to treat the measles. Jokers Kidnap Bride on Wedding Night Bridgeport, Conn. — Charles Brownell of this town was the victim of an "unpractical" joke, in his opinion, when friends of the young man kidnapped his bride following the ceremony, took her to the home of one of the young women conspirators and held her a prisoner until the following morning. Shortly after the wedding cake had been cut an auto drew up in front of the door and the appearance of the bride was the signal for action by the kidnappers. She was hurried into the machine, which sped away at full speed. Not until the next morning was she returned to the disgruntled husband, who admits he failed to see the joke. THIEF STEALS FROM COPS Takes Loaded Revolver From One Policeman and Shoes From Another. Philadelphia.—To steal a policeman's shoes and then swipe another "cop's" loaded revolver is what Samuel Smith put over in Lilianerch, a suburb of this city. Smith broke into the home of Samuel Love, a policeman, at Lilianerch while Love and his family were sleeping, pocketed Love's revolver and questioned why they were sleeping. A short time later Roy Jenkins, another policeman of the village, espied a man acting suspicious. The man was carrying a pair of perfectly good shoes in his hand and keeping in the shadows. Jenkins arrested him. The shoes belonged to the patrolman. Tab for Artificial Dog. Wheeling. W. Va.-Squire A. A. Minder has decided that the law in Wheeling does not discriminate between natural and artificial dogs and James Selens, a music dealer, was ordered to purchase a tab and place it on the neck of an artificial dog that he has standing in the window. American Prisoner Is Disfigured in Almost Unbelievable Manner. Former Circus Performer, Horribly Mutilated, is Forced to Do Work of Oxen for Turkish Master—Made Harem Guard London.—Many have been the tales, exaggerated or without foundation, which have passed from mouth to mouth, and even found their way into print, of prisoners of war who have been sent home with faces disfigured by brands of the German gale, snakes and other horrible objects. Many of these stories could not be traced by the authorities and were attributed to heated imaginations. A correspondent of Lloyd's Weekly, however, has discovered a very bad case of Hun savagery, which sufficiently testifies to this method of mutilation by branding or tattooing, being no exaggeration. "The man's name is Roughton and he lives in a miserable slum near Waterloo, hating to go out in daylight. On his forehead was a disfigurement," says the writer, "that seems unbelievable in these days of so-called civilization. "The man's head is covered with short stubby gray hair, and his naturally fine forehead gives plenty of room for a sinister sign that stretches from temple to temple and from the arch of each eyebrow to the edge of the scalp. It is a heavily tattooed design of a huge crablike creature which he afterward told me is called "The Spider of Death" or the scorpion. "In some horrible frenzy of imagination this creature, which had been pricked with red, white and green ink upon his forehead, has been given three bodies. One lies over the other and each outline is clearly visible. It shows first the shield of Bulgaria, above that the military drum of Germany, and superimposed upon these, the fez, the star and the crescent of Turkey. On either side stretch eight human-booted lega, while from the middle, or head of this horror, hangs a ring showing that the man branded thus is the property of the Turks for eternity. "Yes, that is what I have to show for my share in the great war," said the branded man. "I have seen a lot in my life. I was born fifty-seven years ago in Chicago and I guess there are a good many men there yet who remember the name of Roughton, famous for feats of strength and physical endurance right through from Maine to California. "My life has always been one of adventure. I have been a "strong man" and an acrobat in circuses. "When the war broke out in 1914, I joined up with the augment of royal engineers that was being recruited in the States, and over I came to the fighting front. "I was at Mons, and I got the ribbon right here," and he produced a little blurred ribbon. "But I never wear it. After I finished with the Second army in France I was moved to Salinaka, and then to Mesopotamia, and that's where I got caught. "It was while I was doing some work with barbed wire one night alone out under the stars in that 'blessed land' of Mesopotamia that I got done in. They got me, but it took a lot of them to do it. "I was put to work, and I tried to escape, and I was caught and put out a torture, and then one day a Turk uncle direction of a German officer, put this upon me, and the man smote his forehead with a terrible gesture. Made Guard in Harem. "By and by, over there in Turkey, my captors realized that my physical strength was beyond the ordinary and I was turned over to a pacha who bought my body for his service. I was put to work pulling a plow, and when I didn't cover enough ground, or the furrows that I made were crooked, I was beaten with a leather cat-o'-nine-tails that had nails at the end of each thong. "Then the great potentate for whom I worked seemed to realize that he was wasting good material in rough, unskilled labor, and after many weary punishments he placed me (with this badge of shame upon my brow and the price of 5,000 marks upon my head should I try to escape) as the guardian of his harem. "Among the many women slaves in this place there was a young Arabian girl who had been stolen and sold to the man who was our master. She was unhappy to the verge of madness, and the horrors through which she went on many occasions nearly drove me out of my mind. By methods that are too long to tell you, this Arabian and myself plotted and planned together and succeeded in escaping. Finally we managed to get in touch with British troops." First Carriage From Greece New York-For the first time since the beginning of the war a steamship arrived here recently with a commercial cargo from Greece. The ship was the British steamer James Carvinvalino from Salonika. She brought currants, tobacco and liquor. LIMBS SELF ACTING "Kinematic Surgery" Developed to Extraordinary Degree. Italian Physician Achieves Remarkable Results in Fitting Artificial Legs Bologna, Italy.—Remarkable results have been achieved in Italian military hospitals recently by the use of what is known as "kinematic surgery," the invention of Professor Putti of Bologna university. Professor Putti's methods have aroused intense interest on the part of American doctors attached to the Balkan commission of the American Red Cross who are supervising the artificial leg factories already established and being established in Athens, Saloniki, Begrade and Bucharest for the war's mutated. At present allied soldiers in the Balkans who have lost their limbs are being fitted with artificial limbs and arms of a type similar to that employed by Sarah Bernhardt. Professor Putti's methods, however, are a distinct advance over all other artificial appliances. His treatment of amputated limbs consists of a unique preparation of the stump to develop a "motor" end to the cords which, after being bound together over a smooth "bearing" of bone, asg as much as a three-inch leg by means of a reeducation and indication of the muscles of the stump. After the stump heals. Professor Putti cuts out a flap of flesh, which he folds back into an inclusion to take the flap. This is allowed to heal and then through the loose flap of flesh a metal bar with attachments to operate the artificial limb below is suspended. The muscles of the calf and thigh readily respond after some weeks to the movement of the artificial leg, and soon the pressure of the swinging of the artificial leg re-educates the muscles through the flap of flesh, so that it may be said the muscles of the stump actually operate by themselves the mechanical features of the artificial limb. In the case of a severed hand the muscle groups surrounding the bone are trained to operate catgut cords which, in turn, operate artificial fingers. Not since the introduction of "debridgement" in American army medical work in France has any medical innovation created as much comment. Winnipin, Man—A huge bone, 60 feet in length, recently was unearthed along the banks of the Deer river in Alberta, according to information received here from the Gayfe, divinational engineer of the Canadian National railway. Mr. Gayfe says the bone is thought to be part of the skeleton of a dinosaur and an effort will be made to find the other parts. KEEP JAIL ARTIST'S WORK Dough and Sump Dummy Head Left Behind in Sing Sing Is Sent Yonkers, N. Y.—After being officially photographed, the oldman "dummy" John McAllister, Sing-Sing's artist burglar, left behind in his cell when he escaped, was added to the prison museum. The head was molded of soap and dough. He used his talents not alone to mold it with features copied after his own, but he covered it with hair from his own scalp and stuck on more hair where the eyelashes belong. With his brush he painted a complexion. In the habit of wearing black sleeveholders when he plied his brush painting or designing, he completed the deception by putting them on the dummy's arms. HISTORIC CHURCH TO PASS Apartment Hotel to Occupy Site of First Episcopal Church in New York. New York.—The historic First Reformed Episcopal church, Madison avenue and Fifty-fifth street, is to be torn down. The Supreme court has just ratified the covenant of its sale. A large apartment hotel will occupy the site. The congregation will retain possession of the building until November. Then a building in the vicinity will be leased and the activities of the parish will be reorganized along broader lines than at present. The rectorship of the church was made vacant by the death in France of Rev. Dr. William Dubose Stevens, who was serving as a Red Cross chaplain. No effort will be made at this time to fill his place. Find Ocean Dusty New York—is the ocean dusty? Marines aboard the U. S. S. Pennsylvania, now in port here, will say it is. "The salt in the air crystallizes on the decks and bulkheads." Corporal William H. Allen explained to a reporter. "It is then ground under foot dusty, so that, although we throw it out of the air of dust, there is the same amount the next time we sween down." In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. MINNESOTA Good Chickens Are Profitable Investment Washington, D. C.—The story of Reuben Lowe, of North Shapleigh, Me., illustrates the possible profits from poultry keeping where careful management is practiced. During 1913 this poultryman, who devotes only part of his time to chicken raising, kept 250 birds, which paid him a profit over feed cost of more than $1,000, equivalent to $4 a bird. Included in this amount are the sales of a few eggs for hatching, about 30 cookeels sold for breeding purposes at $3.50 to $5 each, as well as the market eggs, which were disposed of in large quantity. Mr. Lowe keeps White Wyandottes of a strain that wins in the show ring when judged according to either the standard of perfection or a utility standard. One pen of 20 pallets owned by Maine poultry raiser produced eggs on behalf of Newman, 1918, 1919; December, 1918, 1918; January, 1919, 1930; February, 1919, 326; March, 1919, 456; a total of 1,933 eggs, averaging 9.65 eggs per bird in five months. It pays to keep pallets of this kind, and growers everywhere are coming to realize that there is more money in keeping better fowl and feeding them properly balanced ratios than in wasting time with inferior birds. WRITES NOVEL OPERA Has No Characters, but Represents Ideas for Which Men Have Striven. Rome.-Pietro Mascagni, known to everyone as the composer of "Cavalieria Rusticana" and numerous other musical works, has written a new opera. "Il Piccolo Marat," which is characterized here as distinctly a revolutionary step in operatic works. It contains no personalities as characters in the story, but it substitutes for them symbolic representations of virtues and ideals similar to the American pageant. "I expect to produce my new opera next winter in Rome," said Sigur Rasmacni to the Associated Press correspondent. "The theme is founded on the conflict of the ideas between the autocrat and the democrat, between oppression and freedom. The time of the opera, of course, is not limited to any one period. The opera is symbolic of many periods and would just as readily be to the stirring times of the American Revolution as it would to the French revolution, or the Russian or the Bavarian. "I have no characters in the production representing any particular personalities. There is no Napoleon, Metternich or Gatbaldi. My characters represent the ideas for which man have endeavored to keep man in subjection. There is a character for justice, for truth, for freedom; and, on the other hand, for tyranny, for ignorance, for wrong. The plan in my new work has been to depict in song the abstract qualities of man truth, so to be a free man through the instrumentality of characters representing the abstract qualities for which man fought, and, on the contrary, the qualities he fought against." SEEKS TO CUT LIVING COST Freer Imports, Restricted Exports Considered by French Cabinet as Solution. Paris—The French government is considering the problem of the high cost of living and the cabinet took up the question at its meeting. According to the Echo de Paris the government is considering the issuance of the decree opening the frontiers immediately for the import of necessary raw materials. The Figaro says the government is discussing the prohibition of the export of certain foodstuffs, such as butter, eggs and cheese. Other newspapers say the government will propose a law inflicting very severe penalties on food speculators. The proposal to end martial law, which has been in effect since the beginning of the war, was discussed in the chamber of deputies. FRANCE TO TEACH DOCTORS New Body Will Work for Permanent Relations With United States. Paris.-The Tempes announces that an organization has been formed with the object of establishing permanent relations between American and French physicians and surgeons. Several commissions have been appointed by the organization. One of these will have in charge the establishment of a course of teaching for American physicians visiting France, and another the founding of a bureau of information. A third commission will examine into means of organizing an exchange of articles on medical and surgical subjects between the journals of the United States and France. $2.00 PER YEAR Chilean Airman Writes Story of Great South American Air Feat. SET HIMSELF DIFFICULT TASK There Are Mountain Chains Higher Than Andes, but None So Hard to Cross by Flying—Latin Ameri- ca Encourages Aviators. Washington—Latin America rapidly is producing notable aviators. Every encouragement to flying is given by numerous private clubs that look upon aviation as a sport and as the solution of difficult problems of the transportation of mail, passengers and merchandise. Frequently only a few miles of airline separate two important towns between which communication except by wire is a matter of days, if not weeks. This is due to mountainous lack of railways and the rough and winding character of the few roads and trails. These handicaps seem only to stall the young South American to greater freedom air and the governments to overcome them by establishing regular service as a matter of business. Together these forces are working a development of aviation in South America. Flight Across Andes. The particulars of the recent flight across the Andes of Lieut. Dagoberto Godoy of Chile, have come to the Pan-American Union for publication in its next bulletin. As the ocean adventure will be the greatest straightaway flight ever attempted, so was the accomplishment of the young Chilean army officer the breaking of the world's record for height in crossing mountain ranges. There are higher mountain chains than the Andes, but none, it is held, so difficult to cross by flying. Pass over the highest peaks has long been the ambition of Chilean and Argentinian aviators. The daring engineer, George Newberry of Argentina, was the first to be killed at the foot of one of them in an attempt to accomplish the feat. Another Argentinian engineer, Senior Muscias, also was killed. Lieutenant Zani next got within a few miles of the divide and was forced to come to earth. Fliuers, the popular Chilean flyer, failed in turn. Bradley and Zuluaga, two aerials of Argentina, a year ago crossed the air in a balloon and Luis C. Candelaria the southern ridge at a height of 2,000 meters from Zapala to Cunco still later in time. Godoy's flight was made from Mendoza to Mendoza, a distance of 210 kilometers in one hour and twenty-eight minutes at a height of 17,300 feet. He used a monoplane with a 110 horsepower Le Rhone motor. No account of his victorious achievement can excel the description he gives of it himself in a contribution to the Bulletin, in which he says: "At last I was to get a bird's-eye view of the peaks upon which I had so often gazed from the track of my airdome. The Bristol mounted into space for a time. I had not yet looked downward. I had to watch my altimeter, my compass, the regular throbs of the oil engine and the revolutions of the motor. I had to change the carburizer. I had to regulate the Le Rhone; and, then, when my altimeter had passed the 17,000 feet, I looked downward. In Unknown World. "I was in an unknown world. The mountain range stood out wonderfully clear; everywhere were canyons, immense black-mouthed valleys, gentle foothills and ice slopes. At the left Tupungato rose near me to my own height, or perhaps higher, like an enormous skyscraper, a magnificent yet graceful tower rearing itself toward heaven. On one side it had a long, gradual, almost horizontal slope, like a palm of the hand, white and frozen, but hospitable, inviting me to alight and linger. But the impression was strong. I told theold me I was going 180 or 190 kilometers hence the scenery altered rapidly. A moment later I crossed the frontier. My country was behind me; before me lay the sister nation and triumph—my sleet but loned for victory. "At that moment the motor missed and nearly stopped. I guessed what was the matter. The automatic engine was not working and the gasoline couldn't reach the carburetor. I worked an instant and the engine and rotary started up again before the change had affected the apparatus. I had to land. So I lessened the supply of gas slightly and began to descend slowly. The needle, which had reached a maximum of 17,300 feet, gradually lowered. Then the battle began, which lasted perhaps three or four minutes. The plane seemed to be crazy. That morning there had been a windstorm on the Argentinian side. Perhaps that was the result of the engine's failure, and there in the distance amou Go His Goat. Taylorville, Ill.—Earl Bulpitt is an undertaker. He owned a valuable mounted goats head.

The plan of the Roosevelt Memorial Association to have a segregated "colored" committee in each state to raise funds among the colored people is an unnecessary drawing of the color line and entirely wrong. Such a plan would have been repudiated by Col. Roosevelt who was a conspicuous advocate of equality. He practiced what he preached and did many things to break down the color line. For the men who head this affair to set the colored people aside is really an attempt to put a blot on the record and memory of a great American. The work could have been done just as effectively by having colored men as equal members of state and local committees without the color line. The editor of THE APPEAL received an appointment as a member of a "colored" committee but declined to serve. COLORED VETERANS ELIGIBLE. Nothing illustrates the status of the colored man in the United States more than the announcement of Henry D. Lindsley, chairman of the national executive committee of the American Legion that colored veterans are eligible to membership. The announcement states further that the composition of local and state organizations will be left to the members themselves. That means that many colored men who have risked their lives in defense of their country will be denied membership in the South and in many parts of the North. And they still say the war was fought for "democracy." THE RACE COMMISSION. THE APPEAL still contends that there is no reason for the existence of the "race commission" appointed by Governor Lowden of Illinois. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided by a unanimous vote that segregation is unlawful, so there is nothing to arbitrate. The editor has talked with several prominent Illinois men this week and the consensus of opinion among them is that the whole thing is a political scheme of Governor Lowden, who is WANTED, A SAMARITAN. Prone in the road he lay. Wounded and sore bestead: Priests, Levites past that way, And turned aside the head. They were not hardened men In human service slack: His need was great: but then His face, you see, was black. From the New York Independent. These men say that since he has been governor of Illinois, Lowden has developed a great prejudice, against the colored people. He has taken "jimcrow" colored men into his confidence and his present plan is to get the colored people to consent to their own civil degradation. These Illinois men say that the commission is "packed." The majority of the white men on the same are enemies of the colored people, and the majority of the colored men jimcrowists, that is, men willing to make concessions in their civil rights. THE APPEAL man has been well acquainted with Edward H. Morris, Chicago's famous lawyer, who is one of the commission and can vouch for him as a man who will not concede anything fundamental. He will fight any attempt at segregation to the last ditch. THE APPEAL is only slightly acquainted with four of the other colored men. One man he has never met. He has often heard three of the colored men described as jimcrow men of the deepest dye. It is said that, segregation propositions will be offered by the white members. If such propositions are offered the colored men should stand as a unit against them no matter how trivial they may seem. They must not yield a single point on any question involving segregation of any kind. ASK EQUALITY IN TREATY. William Monroe Trotter of Boston, secretary of the National Equal Rights League, appeared before senate foreign relations committee Thursday representing the organization and asked for two amendments to the Peace Treaty. One provides that in the league of nations covenant the members "vouchsafe to their own citizens the possession of full liberty, rights of democracy and protection of life, without restriction or distinction based on race, color, creed or previous conditions." The other adds a similar guarantee as a separate section of the treaty. Such amendments are all right. An amendment to give the United States a mandatory over the Kamerun, a German colony in Africa, was requested by Joseph T. Thomas, a colored man of Cleveland, Ohio, representing the national race congress. American colored men, he said, could be recruited to police the territory under white officers. Such an amendment is all wrong, because the United States has given justice to the colored peoples already within its borders. A petition that all the African colonies taken from Germany be "divided between Egypt, Abyssinia and Liberia" was filed by the League of Darker Peoples of the World. This amendment would be all right if the word Egypt were stricken out. To give any of the colonies to Egypt would be to turn them over to the tender mercies of Great Britain which rules Egypt with an iron hand. WILL DEMAND SATISEACTION John R. Shillady, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who was brutally assaulted in Austin, Texas, has issued a statement saying action would be taken to obtain satisfaction for the attack made upon him in Austin, when he went there to advance the interests of his organization. He said he will demand congressional and presidential investigation and appeal to Governor Smith to THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cover The human race has test.

KEEP COOL! With the great racial excitement now existing all over the country, it is well for colored people to keep cool. No good can come from incendiary talk. It is rank folly to talk about actual, physical fighting to win the contest for justice in the U. S. A. It would be futile as the colored people have neither wealth nor guns and are outnumbered five to one. Never be the aggressor but defend yourself if wantonly attacked. The colored people must fight but it must be with the spirit, money and the ballot. Use every legitimate means to create a healthy public opinion and vote for the individual or party guaranteeing protection of life and liberty. ONE WAY OUT. It seems that the best means for promoting the welfare of the colored people would be the scattering of colored families all over the country. In communities where there are only a few families there seems to be little or no friction. Trouble seems to be caused by the coming of the masses. An example of this is right here in Minnesota in the town of Bemidji, where there are not more than a dozen colored people. Charles W. Scrutchin a colored man of African ancestry is the leading lawyer, having a good paying practice, his clientele being all white. He has the respect of the entire population and is received everywhere with the same cordial welcome that is given the whitest man in town. There is no race problem in Bemidji. NOT A WHITE MAN'S COUNTRY. One Beauregard Moseley of Chicago, a colored man of local prominence presumably in order to be patted on the back and called a "good negro," in an address at a colored meeting during the riots informed his auditors that, "this is a white man's country." He was promptly rebuked and we trust he'll know better next time. No; this is not a "white man's country." It is true that the white man stole it from the Indians, and also stole some colored men who were free in Africa, brought them over here and made them slaves to work the stolen property. Three hundred years of unrequired toil gives the colored man a better title to the land than the white man's. The colored man knows no other land; he speaks the vernacular of the country; he has fought in every war to preserve its integrity; has has always been loyal though deprived of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." The colored people of the United States are not aliens; they were all born here. They are Americans and as Americans have their share in our common country. COWARDLY BISHOP REBUKED. We reprint from the Cleveland Gazette, edited by Hon. Harry C. Smith, a stalwart and outspoken champion of the colored people, the following rebuke to cowardly colored bishop: BISHOP PHILLIPS WRONG While there is much in Bishop C. H. Phillips' pacifist interview of last Sunday, in the Cleveland News-Leader, to interest the average reader, there is one statement to which about all of the intelligent members of our ce when we should wards out of men. us climbed on pro- been raised against e and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. o must speak and right the wrongs of Wilcox To be a human being first, and a woman afterwards. To regard love as the sugar on the top of the cake of life, not the whole substance. To develop my sympathies in every direction so that I may truly be a little sister to all the world. To serve faithfully and well those of my own household, but not to permit myself to become a slave to them. To let no human being go from my presence without giving him or her a happier thought and a brighter outlook. To bear in mind continually that it is just as important to lay up affection for my old age as it is to lay up money. To work always and to realize that it is as much of a shame for a woman to be a parasite as it is for a man to be one. To learn how to do some one thing well enough to make a living by it, so that I need never fear the horror of dependence. To continually reach out for fresh interests in my life, so that if one fails me I shall not be left bankrupt of resources of happiness. To keep my heart sweet and young, purged of the bitterness and narrowness of old age, and so to grow old gracefully and beautifully. race will take issue and that is his statement that "the Afro-American does not desire social, political or industrial equality." That is not true, bishop! In this section of the country we want and, in a limited degree, enjoy all three. In the South, our people are asking the last two. "Social equality" is a myth. It does not exist among any class (race) of Americans. It is a matter for the individual to settle and be alone settles it in all cases. And many white and colored individuals (families) in this section of the country have long ago settled it to their entire satisfaction and are enjoying the so-called "social equality," and will continue to do so until "the end of the chapter" regardless of the ranting of southerner if not both and the laws of the political equality, the fundamental law of the land guarantees the latter if not both and the laws of the states are in most cases explicit when it comes to the former. Not only does this race of ours desire them but it demands them and will never rest until they are conceded in every nook and corner of this country of ours. The Afro-American wants and must have everything good every other class (race) enjoys in this country if he is to keep abreast of the times and be able to cope with them in the great struggle of life. In this section of the country, at least, we can stand up and say so—tell the plain unvarnished truth and should do so. That it is not advisable for the good bishop to do so because of his residence in the South and because of the large church interests there he represents, we can understand. However, good bishop, please refrain from giving out such interviews here in the North where they do no good but on the contrary have an effect that retards the progress of those of the race in this section of the country.

The following from the Chicago tribune is a manly protest against the use of a word which is particularly offensive to colored women. OBJECTS TO "NEGRESS." Chicago—(Editor of the Tribune.) In two recent issues you published very fine and highly commendatory editorials on "Race Progress and Common Sense," yet, notwithstanding that, yesterday you state in glaring headlines the "Death of Mme. Walker, Wealthiest Negress." That word "Negress" is nauseating in the eyesight of all colored women and should be eliminated from the vocabulary, in which it has no rightful place. Above all, your paper should be the leader in this regard, if you really have the welfare of the colored race at heart. SAMUEL Z. C. WESTERFIELD. The colored men who persist in using "negro" as a race designation are largely to blame for the common use of a word which should be avoided. The colored people of the United States are Americans—that's all. The use of "negro" and "negress" is the cause of many discriminations against the colored people. The word "negress" is nauseating, and so is the word "negro" when used as a racial designation for the colored people of the United States. FRENCH DEMAND RACE EQUALITY Protest on American Seldiers' Acts to Colored Men. Paris, August—The government was interpellated in the chamber of deputies a few days ago on the rough treatment French colored soldiers are alleged to have received from the Amer- ican military police in French ports. The questions were asked by M. Boisneur and M. Lagrosilliere, colored deputies, respectively from Guadeloupe and Martinique. The debate that ensued ended with the unanimous adoption of the following resolution: "The chamber, faithful to the immortal principles of the rights of man, condemning all prejudices of religion, caste, or race, solemnly affirms the absolute equality of all men, without distinction of race or color, and their right to the benefit and protection of all the laws of the country. The chamber counts upon the government to apply these laws and see that the necessary penalties for their infringement are inflicted." Expects an Apology. Jules Pams, minister of the interior, replying to the colored deputies, said that the government had applied penalties and asked them not to insist upon a discussion of "the very regretable incidents, as France does not forget the services rendered by her colored sons." The minister of the interior added that the American government had not hesitated to express regrets in terms that did France the greatest honor. "High Diplomacy" Problem. M. Pams asked Deputy Boisneuf for reasons of "high diplomacy" to drop the subject. The deputy said he would not speak of questions that involved "diplomacy, but he protested against the complicity of the French military authorities in these incidents. He then read a confidential circular American army officers attached to the American army, sent to Paris. American opinion did not tolerate "familiarity between whites and blacks." "And it is America that wants a society of nations," interjected Charles Bernard, a deputy from the Seine. The circular wasn't signed by Wilson, but quoted Deputy Mayeras (Socialist) from the Seine) in reply to M. Bernard. TWENTY-SEVEN SLAIN.

The report shows that twenty-six citizens one policeman were killed. There were 291 citizens injured and thirty-nine policemen were wounded. During and immediately after the riots all sorts of rumors were in circulation. One was to the effect that several hundred had been killed and that the public authorities were concealing the true facts. This resulted in resolutions being introduced in the city council calling upon Chief Garrity to compile an official list of killed and injured. THE LATE RACE RIOTS White Woman Writes Her Personal Experiences in Recent Race Troubles in washington THE LATE RACE RIOTS White Woman Writes Her Personal Experiences in Recent Race Troubles in Washington (From The Nation, New York.) I the Editor of the Nation: Sir, On Tuesday night, when so many of us learned a mob and a general massacre, most white men believed that a white woman who ventured into that section would be literally devoured, I took it into my head to go there, and go I did. I went for several reasons. One was to prove that a white woman could do it; another, because I knew what had been done by the authorities I thought that a little reassurance from a woman harmless, woman might go a good way, assessed the probable psychological state of the section. Besides, I wanted to know at first hand what the colored people were doing and thinking. I found out. I talked to one colored man, I talked to a hundred and fifty. Occasionally I would stop to speak to one I knew; oftener I would accost a group of unknown men and ask them for their assistance in an everywhere met with courtesy and attentive. As talked, men would appear from the shadows—seemingly from the night itself—until there were perhaps twenty of us. Only once did I see a police man, who glanced at us curiously, but Defective Page said nothing and passed slowly on. And when we had finished our talk, the group would melt into nothingness and I would proceed on my quest. and I would proceed on my quest. I saw no women at all. And the men—why, those men were not out to "start something." They were armed, most of them, and were quite frank about it, but they did not want a fight. They said they were out to see a mob were coming, and, if there were, were going home to barricade them, the mob tried to get in, there was trouble ahead. As one put it: "A man would be than a man if he didn't fight for his family and his home." Their state of mind was not primarily fight. It was fear, a perfect hysteria of dread lest, as more than one expressed it, "a new East St Louis" was at hand. And, as with all hysteria, a small occurrence would have set them off in a frenzy. Dynamite! They were TNT. Again and again I was asked: "Is a mob gathering on Pennsylvania Avenue? Will they come up and burn us out? Is the Park cordoned?" They were told they did not dare go downtown far enough to see if the troops were really there. Over and over, I heard the pathetic Do the white folks care? Do anything, they really doing anything? I told them the best of the whites did care, but they were helpless. I told them also that measures had really been taken that afternoon and what they were—as police, protection. One queer old man remarked: "Well, I reckon some-buddy do care, or a white lady wouldn't come out to tell us about it." A one-handed soldier said: "I enlisted; I gave the country my hand, and I was ready to give more. When I was in France, I was a man and a soldier, but when I get back here, I'm not a citizen; I'm not a man, even—just big, black brute." It was not bitter. He was deeper than bitterness. He broke a broken heart. Another said: "They say this is to protect the white women. My father was in charge of a whole plantation and a family of white women during the Civil War. They weren't afraid to leave the white women with us then, and colored men are no different now." Many of them expressed a liking for, and confidence in, the captain of the precinct, and, when a man of one race speaks well of a man of another, during a race riot, that means something. But they spoke of the lack of colored police, and of the fact that colored people being dropped from the force and that they were being arrested since 1910. "You know," they said, "that we could talk better to colored police. They would reason with the people and not just knock them round. They know who the people are and what is going on, and they could stop a lot of trouble without arrests. But they don't want to give us a chance." I saw but one noisy Negro, a half-witted and dishevelled-looking fellow, talking loudly and belligerently. Him was shook, and he thought and thoughtly shook, telling him "shut up and get home," he would certainly find things happening to him. Once an excited colored boy came flying on a bicycle with the news that a white mob had formed inside the cordon and was on its way. "Let's go meet them," said one young hothead. This was at once negatived. "We'll watch and see if they are coming, and if they are, we will go home and lock it," he said, and he knew that Captain Doyle said, and he knew that he would. So, for a few tense moments we stepping into the drizzly gloom, not knowing what might after all be about to come. But all was quiet, and we silently drifted on our ways. And thus it went for two hours. I met them—not savages, not red-handed murderers, but citizens, hunted and terrified, looking more or less hopelessly to their Government for aid; human beings craving the hand of brotherhood, and cut to the very heart. I thought of Belgium. I remembered that my country stands abroad for liberty, justice, and the rights of men, though she has them not at home. How blind we are, we Anglo-Saxons, who talk of Freedom and have not yet freed our souls. But still I hope and dimly see a dawn—red, it is true, but still a far-off dawn. A white man once said to me: "You talk like a Negro. You seem at times to identify yourself with them. Have you lost your race consciousness?" I "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: 'Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper. THE MAN WHO DARES 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. replied: "I hope I think enough like them to show you how they feel. I hope I always lose race consciousness when it stands in the way of my consciousness of common humanity." He then said a queer thing: "I do not know whether you are mad or inspired." I had been thinking of going to Serbia, but I believe my duty is here. I believe that our country needs all of us who are standing along the color line. I am ready to do anything possible, to whatever limit. If you, to whom I look as a leader in this situation, should ever need my services, you have but to speak. My soul is affame, not with the glare of the destroying torch, but with the steady, incandescent glow which cannot be extinguished. Washington, July 20. E. G. M. ANNUAL MEETING E. R. L. SEP. 23. The Organization That Got a Delegate to Paris in Spite of Government Ban, to Meet at Washington, D. C., for Three Days. Washington, D. C., August, 1919. Following the meeting of the local branch in the Metropolitan A. M. E. Church which heard the details of the remarkable exploit of Delegate William Trotter of the League in outwitting the State Department by carrying the cause of the race to the Peace Conference, Executive Officers of this organization, headed by Rev. Byron Gunner of New York as Chairman, held a two days' session. The result was the decision to hold the 12th Annual Meeting of the National Equal Rights League at Washington, September 23rd to 25th, 1919. One of the features will be the Colored Race and the Peace Conference in connection with a full report to delegate Trotter. "Full Democracy Now" is the slogan. Every existing branch league, every branch former prior to Sept. 25 is eligible to sen delegates, also all bodies which sen delegates to the World Democracy Congress conducted by the League. GO TO SEE HIM. The soldiers and sailors who took out government insurance during the world war should, under all circumstances, continue to pay their premiums on their policies, which are better by far than any others they can get. All men who were in the army or navy should at once join the local Post of the American Legion. Go to see Lieut. Hauenstein, 91 Pioneer Building, Fourth and Robert streets, who has been appointed special agent of the Legion for the purpose of helping the men to revive their insurance if they are in arrears or to continue their lieut. Hauenstein will accord the men the most courteous attention if they will call to see him. Our boys should act promptly, for if they delay too long, they will be required to take another medical examination for insurance. DO IT NOW! Not "Nigger"—Not "Negro" Bishop Wilbur Thirkield, in discussing colored Americans in the Southwestern Christian Advocate, and in his reply to Irvin S. Cobb, says: "The writer means well, but he does not seem to know what the term 'nigger' that has persisted as a relic of slavery and has in it the sting of Hiquid fire to every self-respecting Negro. must go." And the Bee asserts that not only the word "nigger" must go, but the word "Negro." We are American citizens, the same as you are our skin may be dark. The white man manufactured both terms and the Government legalizes them and colored Americans perpetuate them. For God's sake, give both terms a rest. (From the Nashville Clarion) Doug in Houston, Texas are some elevators in public buildings labeled "NO ROSES AND DOGS NOT ALLOWED." Ungenerous Classification! Surveys sign these account in such measure, for the increasingly rapid mannequin in which the Colored are depopulating the South. They can neither blamed nor censured for leaving town like this. They have hearts, souls and human pride, just like people of other races. cok Pty ap Mer tt Lap enti e. e oaeh re te ne rie 45 = W vite ee YY: A ee De ae ee See pee oe _ 2 ‘ SO Defective Page eke: : bus aa 2 AS pm sa sf.

Roper 418 Edmund street, who died Sept. 3 Was held at St. Philips church last Saturday afternoon under the aus ples of St. Paul Chapter, No. 29 ©, E. 8., and Household of Ruth, No 4471, Rev. A. H. Lealtad officiating Lyles undertaker, interment at Oak: land, . Mrs. T. H. Lyles, who has been a member of the National Woman's Sut ragist Party since 1916 and has made many speeches in its interest, was present at the Capitol Tuesday and worked with Mrs, Colvin and Mrs, Kenyon in the interest of the suff rage bill that was passed by the legis lature. Miss Mamie Lucky and Mr, Ernest Charleston were: united in marriage last Thursday evening at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Lucky, 1191 Sherburne ave- nue. "The occasion was celebrated with a family dinner and a reception to friends, The bride received a large number of beautiful and usetul presents, : On last Saturday Mrs. 'T. H. Lyles had in recital at her residence Miss Adine Eloise Lowe, daughter of Prof. and Mrs. C. B. Lowe, of Nashville, Tenn. She is a pianist of marked ability though only 15 years of age and Mrs. Lyles as well as all who heard her ‘play voiced these sonti- ments. She is taking a musical course at Fisk University and will graduate in about two years. Mrs. Lyles being a musical composer is eminently qualified to pass judgment, Mr. John Ratcliffe, the popular tonsorialist, who for so long has had his barber’ shop at 472 St. Peter street, was compelled to move as the building he occupied has been razed. He, however, has moved to a very much more desirable location at 81 W. Seventh street. He has increased the number of chairs to seven and his new shop will have all furnish- ings and appointments in white and silver and will be strictly sanitary. Mr. Ratelifte is a bitter foe of the H.C. L, and has maintained sueh reasonabie prices for tonsorial work that, he has gained the soubrequet of “Cheap John.” Instead of be- ing offended he sagely accepted the title and has made a trade mark of it as may be seen in his unique adaptation of the same in his ad- vertisement elsewhere in these col- umns, on his business cards and on the window of his shop. He has also associated as a partner with him, Mr. Evans Bridges, who acts in the capacity of manager. They have taken their economical methods with them to their new place and cordial- ly invite both old and new customers to call and get the benefit of them. | MEMORIAL MENTIONINGS.

I know a bee, "A used to be," A very worthy man is he; But what he's going now to be, Is not apparent yet to me. I know a bee, "A going to be." A very worthy man is he; But what he's going to do or be, Is not apparent yet to me. I know a bee, A bumble bee; A trouble maker rife is he; For making trouble here and there, He is a peach without compare. I know a bee, A honey bee; A worker diligent is he; With wholesome food for all mankind, His hive with honey sweet is lined. What kind of bee Are you to be, As you go forth upon life's sea; An active, useful, working bee Or drone or trouble maker free? Minneapolis SET OUR BANNERS HIGH. "So we'll roll the old chariot along, and we won't hang on behind." We know our cause is just, And to win the war we must, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. We are for humanity; And against insanity, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. And we fight with all our might, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. We trust in God above, And leave the ones we love, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. Our Allies are as one, And we say to each well done, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. The Huns fight in the air, But they find that we are there, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. They fight upon the land. But our guns are fully manned, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. Their boasted submarines, Cannot baffle our marines, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. The Providential God, Will guide the chastening rod, So we'll set our banners high, And fight to win or die, And give a rousing welcome, When the boys come home. Yours for Loyalty. Elbert W. Gilles. SISTER FANNIE. To neighbors dear and kindly friends, With all the help that goodness lends I think of sister Fannie.
