GETS ALL THE GOOD-POINTS Sees Through Father's Eyes. Sees Through Father's Eyes. Miss Mildred's escort is her father, and it is through his eyes that she, is able to see baseball and understand all the nice points of the game, as she has been long for the last seven years, explains the game to her as it progresses, by means of a conversational code. "When I was twelve years old," she said, "the Glants were winning the pennant, and my father was tremendously excited about it. Of course I asked him to explain, and he took a piece of cardboard and drew a diamond on it, marking the bases. While he told me about the game I traced the diagram out with my fingers until I got the thing visualized in my mind. Then I went to the games with him and soon learned to understand them by means of our code, usually expressed in monosyllables, a word at a time. So I came to know the players and, like others present, to get all wrought up over team work and brilliant individual performances." In this way the blind girl came to know the stars of the baseball world. She can tell you all about the wonderful Mabie, the great Mabie, the枯 and those of more recent date, including Benny Knuff, Ross Young and others. She laughingly has she the time of her life when she goes to a ball game. She is sure that she sees all that is going on just about as anyone else sees it. Although Miss Harris was born blind, she carries a ray of sunshine with her wherever she goes, for she is cheerful and optimistic. She is fond of the outdoors and excels in walking, swimming and dancing. She is an acumen and intelligence, and is an enthusiety and during the war she is a volunteer worker for the Y. W. C. A. Rooter for the Giants. It may be added that Miss Mildred this year is betting on the Giants, but the fact is she has always been a "rooster" for the Giants. More than once, however, she had lost money on them, but is hoping that she will be lucky enough to get some of it back this year. She feels it "in her bones" that nothing can head the Giants off this year. The ball game is the one place she can go where she can throw aside formality and do just as she pleases, and for this reason it is her greatest recreation. "You see," she explains, "you don't have to be subdued and self-repressed but can holler your head off if you want to, and nobody pays any attention. When the game is not going just right to suit everybody pandemonium reigns and the whole crowd is in a state of frenzy. It certainly is great sport." Hussey modestly says she has been given credit for having converted many others into fans. She talks baseball enthusiastically to her friends and acquaintances and naturally they become interested and follow the crowd to witness the great American game. ONE BATH IN 482 FAMILIES Only One Tub in Block of 43 Tentences Where 1,700 Live, Survey Shows. New York.—A housing survey of a block in East 33d street made for the state reconstruction commission shows one bathtub in forty-three tenement houses in which live 1,700 persons. The bathtub is the property of the saloon-keeper. It is for use by the owner and his family and comparatively few of other 431 families on the block have ever seen it. The next approach to bathing facilities discovered by the investigators on that block was a stationary washtub with a partition which can be lifted out on Saturday nights. WORK FOR DISABLED Technical Agriculture Offers Thousands of Positions. Serve as Stepping Stones to Higher Promotions and Better Compensation. Washington.—Technical agriculture offers thousands of positions as associates, assistants, helpers, workers and county agents, and this work is particularly suitable for retrained, disabled men, according to a statement issued by the federal board for vocational education. These positions serve as stepping stones to higher promotions and better compensation soon in the agricultural colleges, experiment stations, agricultural extension service and in state cultural movements. These institutions and employments lost thousands of men from their student bodies, their faculty and their staffs. Hundreds of men formerly agricultural extension workers and agricultural county agents will never return to those occupations. These places were temporarily filled by unprepared substitutes who will be replaced by trained men as rapidly as possible. The experience abroad, wherein opportunity was given to study the intensive and scientific agriculture of France and other countries, has greatly stimulated interest in these lines, and disabled men with a background of agricultural experience are manifesting keen interest in training for the lines mentioned. Many others who, by reason of their disabilities, are compelled to equip themselves in other lines, and preferably for out-of-door occupations, are also manifesting a keen desire to take up the specialized branches of agriculture in the training offered by the federal board. United States Marines Lost 5,199 of 8,000 Washington.—Of the 8,000 officers and men composing the marine brigade when it went into fighting near Chateau Thierry last July 5 to stop the German thrust at Paris, 126 officers and 5,073 men either were killed or wounded. The marines took Lucy-le-Boege, cleaned up Belleau wood and finally captured Bousresches. In disclosing these casualties Major General Barnett, commandant of the marine corps, said published statements from army officers that the marines were not in the fighting at Chateau Thierry were misleading. The marines, he said, were not actually in the town itself, but in the action known officially as the battle of Chateau Thierry. 278 ARE DETHRONED BY WAR Bavaria Leads, With Prussia's Thirty-Three Royalties in Exile Second in List. Berlin.—A German professor figures that the adibations and dethronements in Germany include 278 persons. Bavaria leads with one king, one queen, 15 princes, 16 princesses, five dukes and one duchess. Prussia has sent 33 royalties into exile, including the emperor, empress, 20 princes and 11 princesses. Brunswick is at the bottom of the list, with only the ducal couple and their three children. The two tiny principalities of Reuss, whose area is hardly one three-hundredth part of that of Prussia, have exiled 36 royalties. The one principality of Lippe, only about 20 square miles larger than the Reuss states, has a royal family numbering 24 persons. Most extraordinary is the case of Schaumburg-Lippe, with its area of 130 square miles, where there was nearly one royal personage for every five square miles. These included the reigning prince, 17 princes and seven princesses. SAYS FOE ROBBED PRISONERS Steamship Captain Asserts Many Par- cel Post Packages "Went Astray" Sydney, Australia—Charges that Germans who handled Red Cross parcels for Australian soldiers in prison camps robbed the prisoners are made by Capt. Alexander Donaldson of the steamship Matunga. He was captured when the Matunga was taken by the German rider Wolf and was sent to a prison camp in the Hartz mountains. "The officer in charge of the camp was an old rogue," said Captain Donaldson. "He seemed to make a business of robbing us of our Red Cross parcels. About 90 cent of them were robbed by the armored and about 80 per cent after it, owing to disorganization in Germany. The "Fritz" who had the job of driving from the station to the camp with our parcels had a habit of dropping a lot of them off at his shop on the way up." Finds Pot of Gold Virginia, Ill.—John Severon is showing his friends a pot of gold which fell at his feet out of a foundation near Chandlerville. Severon bought the old Robert Morgan estate north of Chandlerville recently. He was sounding the stone underpinning of the house, built before the Civil war, recently. He dislodged an ancient kettle and it contained 140 $20 sold pieces. Minnesota Historical Society THE A ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS NEW COMMERCE CHIEF FAMU THE APPEAL. Philip B. Kennedy, newly appointed chief of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce, says that trade restoration in Europe, including that in enemy countries, is dependent upon the return to work of the different peoples. How Villa and His Men Foil Pursuit. Bandits Scatter and Hide as Federales Appear—Brown Uniforms Aid. Juarez, Mex. — Francisco·Villa's method of evading pursuit by Mexican government troops is almost identical with that used by a covey of quail to escape the hunter. Even the detail of protective clothing has been applied by Villa, for his men always wear brown cotton clothing which blends with dust clouds landscape and dust clouds through which they travel in campaign. Hunters know that the quail's instinct directs it to scatter when danger approaches and seek cover in the near-by landscape. Villa and his rebel bands do the same thing when a superior federal column approaches. Often Villa's band will number 2,000 men under his chiefs, Angeles, Lopez, Diaz and Garcia. They make a column which colls across the plains like a giant snake and leaves a great dust cloud in its wake. But let General Castro's government troops approach with artillery, machine guns and cavalry mounted on former American army horses and the column will break up into little bands under petty chiefs, will disappear in mountain canyons and go into hiding until the federal passes. Once the danger of attack is over the column reassembles, occupies some town in its path and again disappears with its loot. Villa's men have been known to hitch their horses to plows in the fields of the irrigated districts and be industriously plowing when the federal scouts appeared. They have learned various tricks of deception during the years of evading the federal authorities, and with them so they may transform themselves into wood venders on occasion. CAPT. KIDD'S SPOOK SWINDLE Pirate's Ghost Induces "Suckere" to Purchase Farm—Found No Treasure. Trenton, N. J.-Capt. Kidd's spirit is not a reliable witness as to where the redoubtable pirate buried his treasure, in the opinion of Sophie Sauter and Marie Blumer of Paterson and Fred Laechers of Elizabeth, who appealed to the supreme court against both the spook and his alleged sponsor, Daniel Balsinger of Oakland, N. J. The three took a chance and bought a farm from Balsinger in May, 1913, on the strength of his assurance that Capt. Kidd's spirit had appeared to him in the night and revealed the exact spot on the farm where he had buried whole chests of pieces of eight. They do not wish to pay the balance due now because they have dug up the entire farm without finding a single doubloon. GERMAN GIRLS BLACKLISTED Pilloried In Church If They Associate With American Soldiers. With the American forces in Germany—Posters warning German girls against associating with Americans appeared recently in Coblenz and other towns on the Rhine. American officers who have investigated say certain Germans are resolved that girls who associate with the American soldiers shall be punished and that several secret societies have been formed for that purpose. On several occasions the names of girls who associate with Americans have been read to the congregations at Sunday morning church services. In other villages the practice is to post the girls' names in public places. Black lists of the girls' names are being kept for use after the Americans are gone. Shortage Makes Forest Fire Situation in the Northwest Desperate. Husky Man Who Is Willing to Work Looks Good as Million Dollars to Officials of United States Forestry Service. Spokane, Wash.—One of the biggest “industries” of the northwest this summer is the fighting of forest fires. A good, husky man, with two strong arms and a willingness to work, looks as good as a million dollars to the officials of the United States forestry service, and the big lumber concerns who are losing vast values in timber. There is a famine in men. That is the great reason fires, started by careless campers or lightning storms, have been able to spread over many miles of America’s richest landlands and cause damage that will not be replaced for a generation. One large fire in the Pack river district, northern Idaho, burst entirely beyond control and spread over forty-five square miles of territory without showing the least signs of dying down. Men to fight it were few and far between. War Against Flames. In Spokane as well as the coast cities the forest service is waging recruiting campaigns similar to those carried on during the war. It is a war—against flames almost as destructive to America as the flames that broke out in Europe. Lumberjacks, those big-shouldered veterans of the forest life, make the finest fire fighters. This summer they have had little chance to engage in their regular work of cutting timber, and have bent all their efforts to saving the forests that house the nation. The forest service maintains a ceaseless lookout. As soon as smoke is discerned the news is flashed, to headquarters; a crew is hastily recruited and equipped, and sent into the burning area with full supplies of food, tools and bedding. But they have little chance to use the bedding. Fire fighting is an all-night all-day job. How Fire Is Berten. The only successful method of stopping a fire is to go in front of it, clear a wide trail, and widen it by backfiring. The change of wind will make the back fire cross the trail and endanger the workers' lives. Blazing trees frequently fall with the wind, across the trail, and undo the work of a day. The lumberjack is as expert at tree dodging as he is at playing poker. One result of the epidemic of fires in the present summer will be a vigorous effort, on the part of lumber companies and forestry men alike, to secure from congress a greater appropriation for the forest service than ever before. America's forests are no longer so numerous and well-grown that the trees can be sacrificed without national suffering. FINDS CURE FOR POISON IVY New Jersey Rector's Wife Says Catnip Leaves Rubbed on Will Give Relief. New York.—Mrs. Evelyn S. Trenbath, wife of Rev. Robert W. Trenbath, rector of St. James' Episcopal church of Montclair, N. J., has conferred a boon on sufferers from poison ivy by announcing a remedy which those who have tried it say is a most efficacious one. It is simply the green leaves of the catnip rubbed on the affected parts of the skin. This never tells, Mrs. Trenbath says, no matter how advanced the case may be, and is simple to use, especially in the case of children. The plant grows usually in great abundance behind old barns, and is said to be so antagonistic to the ivy that if planted near it the ivy disappears. ANTHRACITE PRODUCTION UP Shipments Show Hundreds of Thousands of Tons Over Latest Normal Production. Philadelphia.—Shipments of anthracite for July as reported to the anthracite bureau of information aggregated 6,052,334 tons, an increase over June of 452,745 tons. Compared with July, 1916, the latest normal year in anthracite production, the shipments last month showed an increase of 619,456 tons. The shipments for the first four months of the coal year, beginning April 1, amounted to 22,608,555 tons, compared with 21,146,536 tons for the corresponding period in 1916, an increase of nearly 1,000,000 tons. Bells for City Dogs. Asheville, N.C.—As unreasonable as it sounds the city authorities have announced that every canine resident of this city must wear a bell during the next year, and to prove their earliness they have purchased a large supply of the necessary ornaments for distribution among the owners of dogs here.

RICHEST OF NATIONS United States Is Put Far in Lead by British Expert. Germany Holds Second Place and England Third, According to Professor Stamp's Statistics. London.-While the brain might reel at the many figures unloaded at a meeting of the Royal Statistical society, some interesting details as to the world's wealth can be extracted from a paper written by Prof. J. C. Stamp, Comparing the prewar wealth and income of England, Germany and the United States, Professor Stamp computes the respective totals at: | | Income | | :--- | :--- | | England | $71,500,000 | | Germany | $2,750,000,000 | | United States | $200,000,000 | $352,000,000 | On a per capita basis also, America comes out easily the richest country in the world. The capital per head of the population, according to Professor Stamp, was, before the war: All these figures must be considerably inflated to obtain the current year's capital and income, but the increase would certainly be biggest in the case of the United States, which boast at least treble its prewar wealth. The thrifty habits of the French nation were reflected, said Professor Stamp, in a capital of $1,515 per head, while Italy and Australia had only $640 and $605, respectively. He computes Japan's capital at $12,000,000,000, or on a per capita basis, $220 capital, and $30 capital, for the population. The capital and income of Switzerland is probably as low as any in Europe, the income per head not exceeding $55. HELP GERMANS TO FIGHT FIRE West Pointers and American Doughboys Go to Aid of Moravian Colony. Coblenz, Germany.—Two hundred officers who recently were graduated from West Point military academy, joined hands with hundreds of American doughboys and civilians in fighting a fire which threatened to destroy the Moravian colony, an ancient order of religious workers at the Newtuwed headquarters of the First division. The West Pointers, who are on a tour of the battlefields and the occupied area, were attending a dance given in their honor when the fire was discovered just after midnight. The flames got beyond the control of the West Pointers and the West Pointers and the doughboys were summoned by Col. Stephen O. Fquua, chief of staff of the division, to aid in quenching them. The Americans fought the fire until daylight, when it was brought under control. The blaze was confined to one block. Several buildings devoted to the industries of the Moravians were destroyed. FAMINE RAGES IN PETROGRAD Sugar Costs $5 a Lump and Other Foods are Proportionately High. Stockholm.—Famine in Petrograd has attained terrifying proportions and an epidemic of dysentery is beginning to rage throughout the city, according to messages received here. M. Zinovieff, bolshiev governor of Petrograd, issued a proclamation to agricultural organizations and the corn producing districts in which he said the population of the city was receiving famine relief. Food prices in the Russian capital became fantastic when the rations were reduced recently, the dispatches say, a small lump of sugar costing from $5 to $6 and a pound of white bread selling at $60. Aged Woman Picks Berries Hazleton, Pa.-Mrs. Mary Stephansky of Eckley, although ninety years of age, still helps to add to the family earnings by picking huckleberries in the woods near the mining village every day. This has been her annual practice ever since she came to America long ago. Despite her advanced skills, she still very active and able to get about with the agility of women in the skirts. In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. Long Beach, Cal.-Former President Taft every day for the last five years has received from some unknown person of this city a letter bearing a signature which resembles the tracks of a struggling飞 escaping an ink bath. None of the writing is decipherable. Postmaster Demond received a communication from the former chief executive asking relief from the correspondent and requesting that the local police investigate the situation. In all, 1,825 letters from the mystery author have been received, the letter to the local postmaster states. ASK ADAMLESS EDEN Illinois Girls Want to Have Colony in Far West. Suggest That Governor of Wyoming Procure for Them a "Bad Lands" Tract as Soon as Possible. Bloomington, Ill.—A group of Kane county girls plan to found an "Adamless Eden" in Wyoming or some other far western state. Miss Nellie Grant is sponsor for the movement and has written to Gov. R. D. Carey for his assistance in starting a woman's colony far from the haunts of man. In making her unique request, Miss Grant stated that the party will be made up of the twenty, of whom ten are employed in a watch factory, seven are housekeepers, two are nurses and one is a school teacher. All are dissatisfied with their lot and assert that the future holds forth nothing that is sufficiently encouraging to warrant their remaining at home. They believe that they can make a success of farming and would like to obtain a section of land, 640 acres, in some unsettled region, far from railroad and little frequented by man. Miss Grant suggested to the Wyoming executive a tract in southwestern Wyoming known as the "Bad Lands," and which is really a desert. No man will be allowed about the premises. Governor Carey admitted that it was the most unusual request that he had ever received. He turned the letter over to the immigration commissioner with a suggestion that he do everything in his power to find such a tract for the party from Illinois. The young women are ready to pay for the tract, but have limited funds, and can only finance a section that has not yet felt the advancing tide of civilization in the way of price. Some members of the proposed colony object to Wyoming and believe that Montana or Idaho offer greater possibilities. The decision, however, has been left with Miss Grant and the choice will follow the investigation of various sites now being made. In anticipation of the establishment of the colony, the various members are studying diligently the subject of farming and stock raising. They are ambitious in their plans and propose to utilize tractors and trucks instead of horses, and will introduce other up-to-date methods on the western frontier. They are also engaged in irrigation. All of the young women have familiar with a revolver and rifle and will be prepared to defend their colony against any unwelcome intruders. An effort is being made to close the deal by fall so that the trip to the West can be made by the first of next year. It may be necessary to erect some buildings. The young women say that they will be prepared to do everything necessary in the way of constructing a domicile. LYNCHED AS CHURCH LOTER Mexicans Stay Man Accused of Stealing Jewels Off Image in Village Edifice. Mexico City—Detailed of the lynching of Juan Galan, a prominent resident of the village of Zaragoza, in the state of San Luis Potosí, have been received in the capital. El Democrita, in publishing the story, declares that this is the first instance of lynching recorded in Mexico. Galan was publicly accused by the pastor of a church in Zaragoza of robbing the image of a virgin in one of the church murders and jewels valued at $5,000. The curate inflamed his hearers, who dragged Galan from his home, built a firealarm and tortured him until he died. The curate has been detained by the authorities. Kitten Saves Master. Holyoke, Col. "Hall Paws," a kitten, saved the life of H. G. Mills. The kitten, which follows its owner as constantly as a dog, was riding with Mills in his automobile when engine trouble developed. Mills crawled under the car to investigate and found himself within striking distance of a giant rattlesnake coiled. The kitten leaped from the car and sank its teeth into the rattler's head, killing it. The snake, which measured nine feet in length and had twelve rattlers, has been seen in Eastern tuxedist for many years. Ploneers declare it to be the largest rattler ever seen in this section. $2.00 PER YEAR VIENNA'S AGED DYING ON FEET Most Austrians' Suffer From Ravages of the Many Wartime Maladies. CHILDREN ARE EMACIATED Scrawwy, Limp, Listestes From Malnutrition and Seldom Smile or Play —American Red Cross Is Helping. London.—Dr. Ethel Williams, a Newcastle doctor of 30 years' experience, recently has returned to England from Vienna. She attended the Woman's International conference at Zurich, where she heard so much about the conditions of disease in Austria that she decided to see for herself what those conditions really were. She spent a week in Vienna, visiting the hospitals and the school kitchens, studying medical statistics, interviewing representative people, and seeing as much as she could of the city, Speaking to a Manchester Guardian representative, she said: "What impressed me most was the appalling condition of every old person I saw, and of 95 per cent of the children. The old people were like walking death's heads. There are so many things that persons over sixty cannot digest. The mortality among the old has increased by 150 per cent. "What struck me most when walking about the streets was that there were no toddlers. Children of three and four years were burdened by their mothers. The children did not run about, or shout, or quarrel. It was four days before I saw a child playing. Most Children Emaciated. At least 95 per cent of the practically well children were painfully emaculated, with discolored circles around their sunken eyes and the tendons of their necks showing like those of old people. Even middle-class children have these scrawny necks, and when they run their cheeks flap like those of old people. They也坠mum and listless. "The scene in the out-patients' department at the biggest state children's hospital was pitiful—no sound or attempt to play. The children sat quietly on their mothers' knees or against a wall. "I saw several cases of osteo-malaria, a disease so rare before the war that the only two cases I had ever seen had been shown to me as a curiosity. It seems to come from lack of fresh food, and there have been 250 cases in Vienna, and I heard of another epidemic in a German town. "The bones soften and become distorted, the pelvis bones fold inward. In early stages it is curable, but a bad case never will walk again, and a rather bad case always will have difficulty in walking. "The cases were those of older children and adults. They told me that the hospitals were receiving about 15 cases a day, and those they had to turn away inevitably must become worse. I used to test the condition of children who had no fleshless arms. I touched one fleshless the father said: 'Don't touch him. He has this bad new disease, and he hurts him so much.' I realized it at I had hurt him, but the child was too listless to shrink from the pain. "The doctors could do practically nothing for the out-patients who could not be taken to the hospitals. The mothers were in despair. The doctors said the greatest want of all was for cod liver oil. Funds raised in England had sent a supply, but only it lasted long, actually every child under two is rickety. Suffer From Starvation. "It is extraordinary how little Vienna has suffered from war epidemics such as typhus. The enormous increase in sickness is due to starvation disease. Almost all of its child population is stunted, starved, left without vitality, vigor or energy. An enormous number of suburban and a considerable proportion of rural residents have considerable proportion will for all their lives probably be stunted in mind and body, and all will be handicapped." The children of school age provided with one meal of soup and bread in the day by American Red Cross workers at a special kitchen she visited were watched lest they should take the bread home. "You must eat the bread, the workers told them. "All that we can do is to help you to keep well and strong." The Red Cross is opening more of these kitchen facilities to feed 40,000 or more children, but that only means food for one section of the people, the children of school age—and even then only one meal in the day. First Toothless Saw. Coldwater, Minn.—Coldwater laya claim to being the birthplace of the original toothless buzz-saw. According to C. W. Bennett, one of the oldest residents, during his boyhood there was a machine shop for turning wood located near the town, owned by John Joslyn, who operated the daddy of all toothless saws. The toothless disk, according to Mr. Bennett, was six inches in diameter, had been cut from a plate of common sheet iron and attached to a lathe. When in rapid motion the saw would cut through a large steel file, throwing a stream of sparks 20 inches. THE APPEAL AN AMERICAN NEWSPAPER ISSUED WEEKLY No. 30k2 Court Block, 24 E. 4th st. A. Q.

"Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature." —John Stuart Mill. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1919. IN ILLINOIS. The plan for a convention to make a new constitution for the State of Illinois is the result of a scheme of certain Illinois interests led by the copper-head Chicago Tribune. There absolutely is no reason for a change in the basic law, but certain people of The Tribune ilk were anxious to put some jim-crow provisions in the law and the convention is the result. Jim-crowism was not the only Tribune scheme, but it was an important cog in the plan. The primaries have just been held and three colored men have been nominated and it is reasonably certain that all of them will be elected: Col. Franklin A. Denison in the first district and Hon. Edward H. Morris and Rev. A. J. Carey in the third district. If they are elected the interests of the colored people will be well looked after. The colored people of Pittsburgh, Pa., who have shown a united front in refusing to be jim-crowed, have done a great service to the whole people. Although contrary to the law, a separate "negro" school was opened on West-Front Street in that city, but the colored people refused to aid it and insisted upon sending their children to the regular public schools with other American children, and the jim-crow school has been obliged to close for want of patronage. Good! THE "COLORED" COMMITTEE. 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. 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. 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. The other adds a sin as a separate section of Such amendments and An amendment to g States a mandatory c erun, a German colony requested by Joseph colored man of Cleveland. 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 a prospective candidate for president on the Republican ticket in 1920. 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 attic 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 "touchsafe 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 SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cow The human race has test.

The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. hardened men service slack: great: but then you see, was black. dependent. 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. 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 unrequited toll 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 his al- 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. we must speak and right the wrongs of To regard love as the sugar on the top of the cake of life, not the whole substance.

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 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 he 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 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 our desire them but it demands them and will never rest To be a human be afterwards. To regard love as of the cake of life, no To develop my s rection so that I may to all the world. To serve faithfully own household, but not become a slave to the To let no human be ence without giving thought and a brighten To bear in mind just as important to be old age as it is to lay To work always as as much of a shame parasite as it is for a To learn how to do enough to make a liv never fear the horror To continually re ests in my life, so that not be left bankrupt ness. To keep my heart purged of the bittern old age, and so to gr beautifully. 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. "NEGRESS" IS NAUSEATING 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 ditorials 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 Soldiers' Acts to Colored Men. Paris, August—The government was interpelled in the chamber of deputies a few days ago on the rough treatment French colored soldiers are alleged to have received from the American military police in French ports. The questions were asked by M. Bois-ent and M. Lagrosiliere, 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 necesary 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. being first, and a woman is the sugar on the top not the whole substance. sympathies in every di- y truly be a little sister and well those of my not to permit myself to them. being go from my pres- him or her a happier er outlook. continually that it is day up affection for my up money. and to realize that it is for a woman to be a man to be one. do some one thing well being by it, so that I need of dependence. each out for fresh inter- t if one fails me I shall of resources of happi- heart sweet and young, bess and narrowness of row old gracefully and "High Diplomacy" Problem. M. Pams asked Deputy Boiseuef 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 from French officers attached to the American army, setting forth how 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," shouted Deputy Mayeras (Socialist from the Seine) in reply to M. Bernard. THE LATE RACE RIOTS White Woman Writes Her Personal Experiences in Recent Race Troubles in Washington (From The Nation, New York.) To the Editor of the Nation: Sir: On Tuesday night, when so many in Ledroit Park feared a mob and a general massacre, and when 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 had it, another, because I knew what had been done by the authorities and thought that the reassurance from a lone and harmless woman, go a good way, for I guessed the probable psychological state in that section. Besides, I wanted to know at first hand what the colored people were doing and thinking. I found out. If I talked to one colored man, I talked to a hundred and fifty. Occasionally I would stop to speak to one I knew; sooner I would accost a group of unknown people, ask them for their views. Always and always met with courtesy and attention. As talked, men would appear from the shadows—seemingly from the night itself—until there were perhaps twen- "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.

Only once did I see a police man, who glanced at us curiously, but 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. 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 if a mob were coming, and, if there were, they were going home to barricade themselves; then, if the mob tried to get them was trouble ahead. As one told it: "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 dreadless, 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? Who are cordoned. For they did not care how far down from home they see if the troops were really there. Over and over, I heard the pathetic question: "Do the white folks care? Does anyone care? Are they really doing anything?" I told them that the best of the whites did care, but that we were helpless. I told them also that measures had really been taken that afternoon and what they were—that there really was military, as well as police, protection. One queer old man remarked, "Well, I reckon somebody 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 a big, black brute." It was not bitterly; it went deeper than bitterness. He spoke like a man with a broken heart. Another said: "They say this is to protect the white women, in case of the whole plantation and the family of 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 men were being dropped from the force and that none had been appointed since 1910. "You know," they said, "they would talk better to colored police. They would talk better to 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 belligently. Him two colored men seized and thoroughly shook, telling him that if he did not "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 on its way. "Let's go meet them," said one young hoathe, who regretted his decision. We watch and see if they are coming, and if they are, we will go home and look the doors. That's what Captain Doyle said, and he knows what's what." So, for a few tense moments, we stood peering 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, thought of Belgium. I, remembered my country stands abroad for liberty, but they are the rights of men, though she has them 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 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 counten 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. you lost your race consciousness?" I 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." Then he 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 those who are standing along the border, to whatever limit. If you to whom I look as a leader in this situation, should ever need my services you have 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 by delegate Trotter. "Full Democracy Now" is the slogan. Every existing branch league, every branch formed prior to Sept. 25 is eligible to send delegates, also all bodies which sent 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, 919 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 risks. Lieut. Hauenstein will accord the men the most courteous attention if they will call to see him. Our boys should not prompt, for if they delay too long, they will be required to take another medical examination for insurance. DO TT NOW! 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 liquid fire to every self-respecting Negro, must go." Yes and The Bee asserts that not only the word "nigger" must go but the word "Negro." We are American citizens, the same as you, although 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 reest. "Negroes and Dogs Not Allowed" (From the Nashville Clarion) Down in Houston, Texas are some elevators in public buildings labeled "NEGROES AND DOGS NOT ALLOWED." Generous Classification! Such signs as these account in such measure, for the exceedingly rapid manner in which the Colored men are depopulating the South. They can be neither blamed nor censured for leaving a town like this. They have hearts and souls and human pride, just like the people of other races. WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS.
