BINDER TV Uncertainty of Anxiety in Diligent Efforts to New Sou STARTS WITH STOLEN CAR Case Might Be Entitled "The Mystery of Migely's Missing Machine, or Marie's Mishap"—What Worries Migely is Who Is Going to Pay for Damage Done to His Machine When It Hit Marie. Chief of Police Garrity, Capt. Joseph Smith, and several others in authority in Chicago's municipal law and order enforcement league are delving into the intricacies of a crime problem which might be entitled "The Mystery of Migely's Missing Machine, or Marie's Mishap." It all started when someone made off with the automobile of William J. Migely. Two days ago Migely's hopes ran high when the Grand Crossing police notified him they had his car, safe and sound, outside the station. He hurried to the station. There was no car there. "Well, I'll be hung for a humbug if it wasn't sittin' out there just now," said the sergeant, scratching a puzzled pate. "It does beat all how that car gets away, don't it?" Migely went home. Coppers Strike Marie. Came Joseph Kartillia to the South Chicago station walling of his woe. "They struck my Marie," he moaned. "They were coppers, too. I saw 'em. There were four of them in the car, two coppers, a fireman, and a lady. And they didn't have no regard for speed. They tooted their horn and expected Marie to run out of the way. She can't run no more. They hit 'er in the side and knocked 'er down and wrecked the car. And then they left Marie layin' in the street and hopped a street car. I had an awful time gettin' Marie home." "Gosh, I'd a thought she'd been dead by that time!" exclaimed the sergeant. "Did you carry 'er home?" "Carry 'er! She weighs a thousand pounds, Marie's a cow." Find Migely's Car. Later the police found Migely's car at East Ninety-eighth street and Torrance avenue. The radiator was smashed where Marie, after the manner of her kine, had attempted to defend herself in the only way she knew, head on and horns down. She was not quite spite enough and the car caught her amidships. "Marie's horn was broken and she's hurt inside and she'll have to be shot," Mrs. Anna Kartrilla wept. "How about my car?" asked Migely. "Who's going to pay for that?" "Marie couldn't help it. It wasn't her fault," retorted Mrs. Kartrilla. "The police and fire departments are responsible." "We're investigating," said Sergt. Michael Hastings. "IInvestigating also," echoed Sergt. A. Wiseman. "Guess I'd better take my car while I've got it," said Mirely. JOHN REACHES PHILADELPHIA Chinese Student "Stopped Over" In New York Two Years. A Chinese student, graduated from the University of Illinois, walked into the chamber of commerce at Philadelphia recently and presented a letter of introduction from the secretary of a chamber of commerce in one of the New England states. He wanted to be placed in touch with certain manufacturers in the textile industry. He gave an address in Boston, to which he referred as his home. The letter of introduction stated that he was a resident of Bridgesport, Conn. His attention was drawn to this and he smiled and pointed to the date on the letter. It was September 17, 1917. "I stopped over in New York on my way here," he explained. IT SOUNDS REASONABLE This Fish Story Deals With Doings of a Pet Carp. The prize fish story of the season comes from Crawford county, Pennsylvania, where a man owns a pet carp. Whenever he feels like going fishing he digs a few worms and throws them into the tank occupied by the carp. If the fish grabs the man gets his pole and goes fishing; if the carp passes them up the man stays at home, feeling that it is no day for fishing. Thus the man figures that he loses no time, and he always returns with a nice string of fish, according to the story. Eggs believed to be more than eighty years old were discovered by workmen who were making alterations in an old homestead at Fayette City, Pa. The eggs were found in a nest between rafters on the second floor. It is thought they were laid while the house was being constructed. They were blackened from the dust of years. Woman Cleaned Suit; Asked Divorce. After cleaning her husband's clothing and finding a powder puff, a hair net and a vanity bag mirror, none of which she recognized, Mrs. Edward Schribel of Milwaukee applied for a divorce. BINDER TWINE NEEDS Uncertainty of Supply Causes Anxiety in Washington. Diligent Efforts Being Made to Find New Sources for the Material. Washington.—The United States has long depended for much of its supply of binder twine on henequen from Yucatan. The uncertainty of the supply during the past several years has caused serious anxiety lest there should not be enough binder twine to harvest the increasing crops of grain in this country, and the United States department of agriculture has been making diligent efforts to find new sources of supply or new regions where binder twine fibers may be produced. The chief of the bureau of plant industry reports encouraging results. The conditions in limited areas, extreme southern Florida and on the larger keys, are regarded as suitable for the production of sisal and henequen fibers, provided the cost of land and labor is not too high to permit successful competition. Henequen has been cultivated successfully for several years in Cuba and the plantations are being increased, but thus far they produce scarcely enough fiber to supply the cordage mills on the island. Conditions are regarded as favorable for the production of binder twine fibers in limited areas in Haiti and over a much larger area in southern Santo Domingo. Experimental plantings in Porto Rico have resulted in the establishment of a commercial plantation near Yauco and trial plantings near Quebrandallas and on Mona island have given promise of growth. In the Virgin islands excellent conditions for the cultivation of sisal have been found on St. Croix. In the Philippines the introduction of modern fiber-cleaning machines has resulted in increased plantings of sisal and private capital has bought and installed machines to develop the industry on a larger scale. SWISS SMUGGLE, GET RICH One Family Is Asked by the Austrian Government to Explain Affluence. Berne.—Smuggling across the frontier between Switzerland and Vorarlberg has been a highly remunerative vocation recently and many persons are alleged to have amassed considerable fortunes in contraband trade. One family engaged in working a small farm near Lustenau, Vorarlberg, has been asked by the Austrian government to explain its present apparent affluent circumstances. One son is living at Bregenz and reputed to be worth 170,000 crowns, another recently lost 125,000 crowns at roulette in Vienna, while another lost still more heavily at Monte Carlo. A fourth is said to be living at an expensive hotel in Berlin. It is charged the whole family was engaged in smuggling operations. IRON OUTPUT DROPS IN 1919 Total Production of 60,466,000 Tons Is a Decrease of 13 Per Cent From 1918. Washington.—Iron ore production was reduced by the shutting down of blast furnaces last year during the steel and coal strikes and the total output was only 60,466,000 gross tons, a decrease of 13 per cent compared with 1918, according to preliminary estimates announced by the geological survey. Shipments were valued at $203,274,000, the average selling price at th. mines being $3.60 a ton, compared with $3.39 in 1918. Stocks of ore at mines at the beginning of 1920, mainly in Michigan and Minnesota, were 12,989,000, an apparent increase of about 53 per cent. The Lake Superior district mines shipped about 86 per cent of the country's total. Company Takes Back Man Who Stole $235,000 C. R. Woodward of St. Louis, is again a citizen of the United States after release from a two- year term in the penitentiary. Citizenship was restored by the governor. In addition, the Federal Lead company, for the embezzlement of about $235,000 of whose funds he went to prison, has agreed to put him on its pay roll again and give him a fresh start in South America as its agent. Family imprisoned in Chasm. City of Mexico—Unique in the annals of the earthquake is the experience of the family of Prof. Francisco Riveros of Barranca Nueva, Mex. The quake opened a great chasm in the earth in which their home was ingulfed. For more than a week members of the family have been living in the bottom of this abyss at least 140 feet below the surface of the earth. Surviving neighbors have been lowering them food and water at the imminent risk of dislodging rocks, which might fall and crush those beneath. Rain or new shocks may mean the death of those imprisoned in the abyss. THE APPEAL. MAKING TRAVEL BY AIR SAFE Wireless Telephone Will Do Much to Insure Speedy Mail Deliveries. BRITISH EXPERTS AT WORK When New System Is Working Properly Pilots Will Be in Constant Touch With Ground by Means of Wireless. London.—Will the aerial mail service, when its organization has been improved, still continue to be interrupted by such adverse weather as during the past, week prevented on several days the flying of the mail machines between London and Paris? Asked this question the other day by a representative of the London Times, Holt Thomas, whose high speed biplanes carry the London-Paris mail, replied with an emphatic "no." At present, he explained, we are flying daily over what is, to a large extent, still an unorganized route; and it is no exaggeration at all to say that when all the organization which we are busily preparing is brought actually into play, as it will be before we have to encounter another winter, such conditions as prevented Lieutenant McMullin from getting through to Paris on the first day of the air mail last Monday will have no adverse effect at all on the flying of a machine, either from the point of view of safety or of adhering to scheduled time. Wireless telegraphy will help us enormously and we have now the services of one of the most practical experts in this country, who is concentrating his attention exclusively on the question as to how directional wireless and the wireless telephone may be made to help us in regular daily flying and to overcome such difficulties as at present cause delay. Information for Plane Pilot. When we have this system working properly it will mean that during our hours of flying, say from 12 o'clock to 4 p. m., every land operator will be listening for messages from the air and a pilot having set out say from Hounslow, and wishing to know exactly what the weather is like in the channel, will simply take up his receiver and call "Hello, Lympne." All the other stations on the airway will hear, but only Lympne will reply, and in a moment the pilot will be given the information he requires. It will also be quite easy for one pilot to speak to another while two machines are in flight. In each machine, also, we shall place a light telescopic mast. This will be jointed and will lie in the fuselage without taking up any room. But should a pilot have to make a compulsory descent he will on alighting take out his mast, joint it together and place the "aerial" of his wireless telephone on the top of it. Then, when he has raised this mast and stuck the end of it in the ground—it will be about 30 feet high when fully extended—he will be able to call up the nearest airdrome on his wireless telephone and tell them just what field he is down in and what his trouble is. In such a case, if a man cannot ascend again quickly, we shall send another machine to him from the nearest relief point, which will take on his mails. We shall soon have a system, both on the English and French sections of the route, whereby a pilot who has a forced landing can get into, touch immediately with the nearest land agent of the service, who will take over his mails at once and send them on their way in a fast motorcycle. The point is now demonstrated very clearly that with a skillful pilot and a fast machine the only sort of atmospheric conditions which seriously interrupts flying is such as we encounter sometimes on a bad November day, when an opaque mist, beginning almost at ground level, may extend upward, in an unbroken mass, to an altitude of something like 10,000 feet. Hurtling Through the Fog. A pilot in an airplane, flying on through a thick mist, is as unhappy as a pedestrian in a dense fog—only more so. Not only is there the question of finding his way, but he is faced also by the embarrassing fact that, through not being able to turn his eye upon any horizon line, he cannot judge the altitude or inclination of his machine in relation to the ground below, with the result that he may get into a side slip or spin and find suddenly that his machine has passed out of his control—a condition of affairs which may spell extreme peril. Then we expect very soon to have improved considerably the instruments in a machine which tells its pilot its altitude and inclination when he is deprived by fog or cloud of a horizon line. Then, as yet another point, we are working on the question of lighting aerodomes and landing grounds so that a pilot can make a safe contact with the ground even when the air is heavily obscured. This is, of course, a point of capital importance. It is not enough to guide a man accurately while he is flying in misty weather. You must be able to insure him also a safe alighting. Almost Wiped Out by Dance and Feast. Famine Follows Fete Among Alaskan Indians—Forty-Two Are Dead. Cordova, Alaska—A play, a dance and a feast, winding up a season of plenty was responsible for the near-extinction of the Quigillingok tribe of natives last winter and spring, according to John H. Kilbuck, superintendent of schools for the Kuskokwim river district. The famine following the feast, Mr. Kilbuck said in his annual report to the bureau of education, caused the deaths of at least 42 of the natives, and would have wiped out the entire clan had not missionaries come to the rescue with a supply of food. The tribe, Mr. Kilbuck said, stored up great quantities of fish during the summer and fall seasons. In celebration of their good fortune they invited other tribes to attend a "kuvgagyagagg," featured by a play, a "white man's dance" and the giving away of food. When it was all over the guests were millionaires in the currency of the section, while the hosts were paupers. It will be years. Mr. Kilbuck declared, before the Quigillingoks recover from the effects of their generosity. SHOWS "PROFS" UNDERPAID Wives of Instructors! at Northwestern University Are Forced to Do Their Own Work. Chicago—A questionnaire among the faculty members of the college of liberal arts at Northwestern university was responded to by fifty-two and showed, among many interesting things, that among professors and instructors whose salaries are less than $1,500 the modern "hired girl" is unknown. "If the instructor marries, his wife must do all the housework for some time," the faculty report, recently submitted to the trustees of the university, says. But worst of all, even when the instructor has worked his way up the ladder to the position of associate or assistant professor "we find him," the report continues, "still unable to spend much of anything for domestic service. Not even in the group of men receiving the salaries of full professors do we find an average expenditure sufficient to pay a maid's wages for one year." At Northwestern the full professor, so called, receives from $3,000 to $4,000 yearly. The questionnaire also elicited other information which the Northwestern "U" teacher claims entitles him to something more than the 25 per cent increase of salary recently announced by Campaign Chairman Dyche. ARCH FOR 100-YEAR PEACE Memorial Urged for Friendly Relations Between Canada and United States. Blaine, Wash.-Erection of a huge memorial arch on the international boundary here to commemorate the century of peace between Canada and the United States is being urged by good roads men of Washington and British Columbia. Tentative plans call for the erection of the arch in a big park to be established on the Pacific highway on both sides of the boundary. The city of Blaine is willing to purchase the American share of the park if the British Columbia parliament will buy the Canadian side. Samuel Hill of Seattle, president of the Pacific Highway association, is leading the movement. Premier John Oliver of British Columbia has promised to consider the matter. Lumber Jacks to Tramp Over John Brown's Grave. Troy, N. Y.—The grave of John Brown, the abolitionist, at North Elba, in the Adirondacks, is included in the sale of 1,200 acres of timber land in Essex county near Lake Placid, which has just been bought by James Hurley, Lake Placid, for $60,000. Lumbering operations will be carried on. When Brown was executed in 1859 his body was taken to North Elba, where he had founded a refuge for fugitive slaves. Several years ago a monument was placed over the grave. COAL MINED BEYOND NORMAL Bituminous Pits in Pennsylvania Reach High Mark in Month of January. Philadelphia, Pa.—Production of anthracite coal in Pennsylvania in 1919 was the lowest in seven years. There were mined 86,200,000 tons, compared with 98,826,000 tons in 1918. Bituminous coal production reached the lowest level since 1915, with 458,063,000 tons, nearly 21,000,000 tons less than last year. The soft coal mines in the first week of January reached normal for the first time since the miners returned to work after the strike agreement. Production was 107 per cent of normal. ENEMY RATTLED BY FIVE TANKS Ruse That Kept Germans Guessing on Eve of Argonne Disclosed. Their Bluff Attacks Divert Two German Divisions—U. S. Army Gets First Two of Improved Type of Battle Tank. Washington—The story of five little American tanks and the part they played in the great Argonne offensive is told as follows in a statement issued by the war department: "Gen. Pershing with the first American army had just finished awakening the German high command to a healthy fear of the American soldier by reducing the St. Mihiel salient, and the plans for the Meuse-Argonne offensive were about to be carried into execution. In these days of the airplane and wireless telegraphy, it seems impossible to deliver a surprise assault. Nevertheless no pains are spared to deceive the enemy as to the exact point of attack. As a means of covering the true point of attack, the chief of tank corps presented a scheme which received the approval of the high command. Cut Up Like an Army of Tanks. "Accordingly, after the withdrawal of the tanks from the St. Mihiel sector, Lieut. Higgins with his platoon of the Three Hundred and Thirty-fourth battalion tank corps, was directed to proceed from this point in a northwesterly direction along the lines via narrow gauge railway. He was to stop each night and make a reconnaissance in front of our positions with his tanks and immediately load up and repeat the operation the following night further down the line. "On Sept. 19, the five tanks and their crews were loaded and the expedition started. That evening they stopped in the rear of a little wood, many kilometers west of St. Mihiel. Off the little narrow gauge flat cars tumbled the the tanks and nosed into the woods for concealment. About 11 o'clock all was ready and the miniature army started forward on its mission. Everything went off as scheduled. The tanks rolled through our positions and into No Man's Land. "They were operated back and forth for half an hour. After this they were quietly withdrawn, crawled back on their little narrow gauges and started merrily on their way. They timed their work perfectly, and as they pulled out a terrific barrage hit the wood they had left. "The following evening the procedure was repeated. Again the barrage descended too late to hurt the jaunty band. For six successive nights the troupe staged their one night stands, and the reports all along the sector showed that the Hun was up in the air. All day long the sky was full of planes searching for the army of tanks which the enemy was sure was concentrating on this front. All suspicious looking places were bombarded with the usual Hun thoroughness and intensity. All night long the darkness was dispelled by hundreds of flares and rockets, and all indications showed that Helnie was not going to be caught napping. Diverted Two Divisions. "Best of all, just as the little band was preparing to entrain to get into the big show in the Argonne there came a message from the intelligence section stating "two German divisions withdrawn from Argonne front. Entraining for your sector." The tank corps has just received at Camp Meade, Md., from the Rock Island arsenal two Mark VIII, tanks. This type, the largest yet placed in quantity production, was especially designed for use against the Hindenburg line and similar defenses. Not so fast nor so easily handled as the lighter types, it possesses the ability to cross much larger ditches, crush more formidable obstacles, and carries a much heavier armament. The great difficulty with the large British tanks was 'that they were underpowered and, on account of the arrangement of the machinery within, did not afford the proper room for the crews. A commission of British and American experts has corrected faults largely through the adoption of the American Liberty motor. BRITAIN HAS BIG NEW SHELL Projectile Is Said to Pierce the Heaviest Armor Without Shattering. London.—The British navy may soon be given a new and "unsurpassed" weapon in a large caliber shell which will pierce the heaviest armor without shattering, said Sir Robert Hadfield, chairman and managing director of Hadfields, Ltd., steel manufacturers, recently. He indicated that possession of such a shell during the great war would have been of inestimable value to the British fleet. Washington's Birthplace Sold. Fredericksburg, Va.—William G. Latane of Butte, Mont., who married Miss Mary Lindsay of Fredericksburg, has purchased Wakefield farm, in Westmoreland county, where they will make their home. The farm is the birthplace of George Washington. In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. KILLS OLIVE POISON Experts Find Serum to Combat Botulinus Bacillus. Experiments in Laboratories of University of Illinois Meet With Success. Champaign, Ill.-The bacillus botulinus in the olives which caused the death of five persons in Detroit several months ago has been isolated by Dr. Robert Graham of the department of animal pathology at the University of Illinois. "A different type of bacillus botulinus was associated with the olives in Detroit which caused the food poisoning there. Similar experience has been reported by bacteriologists at Stanford university in California, as well as by Belgian scientists," said Dr. Graham. "It constitutes, however, the first time this particular variety of bacillus botulinus has been announced in the Mississippi valley. "A serum protective against the type of poisoning in the olives as well as other types is being prepared at the university of animal pathology. The university's interest is primarily from an animal standpoint, yet the fact that in recent years the disease has been more common in man incidentally associates the experiments conducted with the disease in humans." This one type of bacillus has been found particularly fatal to chickens, the department of animal pathology has found in conducting experiments with poultry. TROUSERS FOR PARIS WOMEN Modistes Show Daring Oriental Suits of Lustrous Gold and Silver Tissues. Parrs, France.—Daring oriental suits of lustrous gold and silver tissues ending in trouser legs, which are held close to the shootops by straps, sometimes embroidered in precious stones, passing under the wearer's instep, are featured in displays of summer models in Parisian modistes' parlors. Some models coyly veil the trousers with filmy materials. Recent rumors that tight lacing was to be restored to favor have proved to be erroneous. In fact, little if any corseting will be needed next summer except by stout women. The length of street dresses being shown is about the same as that most in vogue last fall, but the hem is narrower. Bright textures will appear in many of the most popular creations and patterned materials will be featured by some of the more famous houses. One of the most popular models will show a flounce effect and a tight underskirt of jade green. A smart little jacket with gorgeously embroidered lining has been given the stamp of approval in some of the more exclusive shops. HER RUSE SAVES FATHER Italian Girl Takes Blame for Murder in Pennsylvania as Par-ent Flees. Bradford, Pa.—Margaret Dicello, 17, can marry any one of a score or more of men. She has turned down proposals galore. The little Italian girl won the hearts of the youths of her own people by the cute way in which she protected her father from the clutches of the law. Margaret's father was accused of killing a man, but was at once freed when his daughter confessed that she fired the bullet. When her dad was safe in Italy Margaret admitted that her confession was a lie and was given only to allow her father time to get away. There was nothing for the authorities to do but free the girl and forget the father. "I'm too young to marry," she tells all blders for her hand. A dispatch from Finland says the bolshevki are trying to force the population of Russia to work every day In the week and have introduced a compulsory working day of 12 hours. All working classes are affected. It is said the new rule is being enforced with the utmost severity. MEXICO TO MAKE OWN GUNS Will Turn Out Cannon on Formula Perfected by Two Native Army Engineers. Mexico City—Mexico, which has found it necessary to import its artilery for years, expects soon to man- ufacture its own field pieces. Two Mexi- can army engineers have perfected a formula for tempering steel for cannon, and when the installation of three elec- tric furnaces in the national arsenal is completed the first guns will be turned out. Austrian Children to Ital Vienna.—Ten thousand Austrian children are now going to Italy as guests of various municipalities. They will remain for the winter. Many thousands more are in Switzerland, Germany, Holland and the Scandinavian countries. $2.00 PER YEAR No Hope of Better Food Situation Seen by Food Controller at Rome. Strikes and Riots Are Bred by Steadily Increasing Cost of Everything —Causing Deep Anxiety to Government. Rome.—Italy's food situation is worse now than it has been since the armistice and almost as bad as it was during the dark days of the war. The feeling that all is not well has weighed upon housekeepers for weeks, when life's prime necessities grew rarer and dearer. But now the country has been told the bitter truth by Food Controller Muraldi in a speech before the chamber of deputies. This year's harvest of grain has yielded 200,000,000 hundredweight less than last year; the government must import 250,000,000 hundredweight for bread, which is sold at 20 cents for a two-pound loaf, and means $400,000,000 on hard grain alone; on soft grain the loss equals another $400,000,000; on olive oil the state loses several hundred million dollars. Italy is the only allied country whose inhabitants must still eat war bread. Its price, the government says, must shortly be raised 5 or 10 cents for a two-pound loaf, because the budget cannot stand the loss of $800,000,000 a year on grain alone. The public must bear part of the burden in dearer bread. Rice is scarce, too; this year's harvest shows a shortage of half a million hundredweight; the oil harvest is so poor the public has less than one-third the quantity doled out last year. There is less than half the quantity of cheese, lard, butter and milk of last year; there is a serious sugar shortage too. No Prospect of Relief And the food controller has no remedy to suggest. The public blames him and his food ministry. He blames the food ministry too, saying that such chaos reigned when he took it over last summer that he has been unable to straighten things out and will resign as soon as possible. He told an astonished chamber that he found his ministry buying cheese at 50 cents a pound, to resell to wholesale dealers, who did it out to the public at $1.50 a pound. He added that one great trouble is the lack of food experts to advise the government in buying foods, especially perishable kinds. And he said he saw no hope for a better food situation in the near future unless people eat less and pull their belts tighter over empty stomachs. The perpetual upward flight of food prices in Italy causes deep anxiety to those responsible for the country's good order. Recent strikes and civil strife were almost wholly due to discontent caused by the still increasing cost of life's prime necessities and more trouble is yet to come unless the upward trend is curbed. Sample Increases Cotton goods cost 300 per cent more than they did in 1916, woolen goods 250 per cent, hats and shoes 200 per cent, shoddy clothes 250 per cent, glass goods 360 per cent. Homegrown produce has increased more than foods imported from America. For instance, eggs are now 55 per cent dearer than three years ago, potatoes 450 per cent dearer, beans 425 per cent, fresh pork 370 per cent, Italian lard 286 per cent, beef 311 per cent, butter 279 per cent, cheese 250 per cent, milk 300 per cent, wine 525 per cent. The food control office reports that wine growers made such big profits this last year that they paid for the land their wines are grown on from the one year's gain alone. The ever-growing cost of living in Italy, once the cheapest country in Europe, the paradise of the poor man, seems to be in a vicious circle. Dear food and discontent go hand-in-hand, breeding strikes, riots, blood-shed. They again react on local production and cause prices to rise higher than before. Then follow fresh strikes and disorders; the screw is turned yet again and the vicious circle must be rounded once more. FOR A TINY BOOK, $75,000 New York Dealer Bought Shakespeare Volume in Europe for a Client. New York.—A copy of Shakespeare's "Venus and Adonis," printed in 1500 and classed as one of the most valuable books in the world, arrived here in the possession of George D. Smith, a dealer in rare books, a passenger on the Cunard liner Carmania from Liverpool. Mr. Smith said he paid $75,000 for the tiny volume, two by three inches in size and weighing only two ounces. The volume was purchased for Henry E. Huntington of New York.

"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, APRIL 10, 1920. OTHER HALF LIVES." Most of the people in the United States who are not in the profiteer, or bloated bondholder class, cannot help wondering how their friends and neighbors live in these strenuous H. C. L. times? We believe we're having an awful time but how would it be with us if we had to pay as they do in Russia. The Russian ruble is nominally worth a trifle more than half a dollar of our money. Reckoned on that basis, bread in Russia is now selling at $25 a pound, flour at $250 to $350 a pound, beef at $275 to $300 a pound, pork at $360 a pound, salt at $150 a pound, butter at $1,300 to $1,600 a pound, the cheapest tobacco at $2,500 to $3,000 a pound, cigarettes $ to $6 each, and matches, half of which will not light, at $50 a box. Army rations cost $400 to $500 a day for each man. Apparently, the cheapest thing in the country is paper with the ruble mark printed on it. All of which is to be commended to those who are preaching the superiority of the Soviet to the Republic. DOUGLASS TO GET HIS DUE Nominations have been received for the Hall of Fame at New York University to which fourteen are to be added this fall. Included in the nominations is the name of Frederick Douglass and it is confidently believed his name will receive favorable consideration. Douglass was considered worthy of having a statute erected in his honor in the city of Rochester, N. Y., it will now be eminently fitting to place his name in the Hall of Fame. The atrocities that brought on the great world war and which was continued during its four years of activities, seems to have had the effect of hardening the hearts of men every where. Life and property weigh nothing in the scale. All sense of reason, right, justice, mercy and every laudable human attribute seems to be entirely lost sight of. All of which THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cov The human race has test.

Pouring oil on human beings by other human (?) beings and setting fire to them was thought to be a pastime peculiar to prejudiced southerners, but it appears that the Turks in Armenia surpassed them by a large majority when they broke through the roots of seven churches where Armenians were crowded, poured burning oil on them set the buildings on fire and 3000 perished in the flames. Six thousand more Armenians were killed in the bombardment and a 1000 more died from cold, exposure, lack of food and other causes. Economic conditions at home and abroad are in a deplorable state it seems to be every man for himself and the devil take the hind most which again causes us to exclaim: What is this world coming to? THE BEGINNINGS OF SEGREGA TION. The following item from the Chicago Daily Tribune is interesting as showing the various influences which are suggesting and encouraging segregation. "The possibility of Wendell Phillips High school at Thirty-ninth street and Prairie avenue being set apart for colored pupils exclusively," by a natural segregation," was suggested last night by Principal Charles H. Perrine. At the First Presbyterian church, Grand boulevard and Forty-first Dr. Perrine spoke at the first of a series of Sunday night community meetings in connection with the Chicago Plan. "Negro boys and girls deserve the best available in the way of teachers and equipment. The district around Wendell Phillips is rapidly becoming settled by colored people, and there are comparatively few white pupils. They are getting fewer and fewer." "The time is near at hand when we shall need another high school farther south to take care of the increased white population there. A modern high school located somewhere near Fiftieth street will be necessary soon and should be included in the Chicago Plan. Wendell Phillips will be then exclusively for colored pupils. They should be given the finest high school possible." The Rev. William Covert, pastor of the First church, announces a series of discussions on Sunday evenings to consider the duty of the church in the development of the Chicago Plan. Like nine out of every ten schemes for the degradation of the colored people it was suggested by a supposed friend and perhaps there is a "nigger in the woodpile." That is perhaps Perrine had talked with some jimcrow "negro" who approved the outrageous plan. There are some jimcrow "negroes" in Chicago and in other cities including St. Paul and Minneapolis. Like the majority of schemes for the degradation of the colored people it was incubated in a so-called Church of Christ. Principal Perrine said that the district was becoming settled by colored people and therefore Wendell Phillips High School should be made "colored." That would be an outrageous perversion of the name, for Wendell Phillips was a real Christian white man who devoted his life to work in righting the wrongs of his colored brethren. There are neighborhoods in Chicago inhabited almost exclusively by Italians, Chinese, Poles, Russians and other foreigners, but the thought never comes to Mr. Perrine or others of his ilk to restrict the children in those neighborhoods to "exclusive" Italian, THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than th world, the countena the heart of fidel 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. once when we should wards out of men. us climbed on pro- been raised against me and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. we must speak and right the wrongs of er Wilcox. Chinese, Polish or Russian schools. The schools remain PUBLIC schools, open to all. There has been much talk about the "Chicago Plan" and now we are getting some intimation that segregation is to be a part of that plan. However we believe that the thinking colored people of Chicago have their eyes open and will be ready to fight jimcrowization of the schools. One thing that Mr. Perrine said is true: "The colored boys and girls are entitled to the best in the way of equipment and teachers." The colored children have the same rights as other children, no more and no less. To attempt to segregate them is to take from them their birthright. The only way they can get the "best" is to attend the identical schools that other American children attend. A jimcrow school built of gold and studded with diamonds would still carry with it the degradation for which it was designed. THE "NIGGER" IN THE SEGREGA TION WOODPILE. "Prof. Neval H. Thomas, a school teacher in Washington and an active member of its N. A. A. C. P., concludes a vigorous news article published in the Cleveland Gazette with words which answer the boasts of those who get money for institutions and houses for Colored people that keep the races apart. Says Prof. Thomas: "I have heard many silly Negro advocates of segregation boast of how much money they can raise for a Negro enterprise, too blind to see that most any white man will contribute liberally to any movement that will keep Colored people away from him and make them acknowledge their inferiority. In fact, the most dangerous enemy of democracy with which we have to contend, and the most serviceable capitalistic tool, is organized charity. The large donors to these Negro "charities" are making profitable investments when, through some well-paid Negro, they can establish a separate Y. M. C. A. Y. W. C. A. social settlement, or school. These institutions aid in keeping the toiling masses apart, so that, on the principle of "divide and conquer," these wealthy "donors" can exploit. So, the collection of large "contributions" by these Negro segregationists is no achievement, but another barrier to the progress of the race. I well remember how one of these international "secretaries" boasted of getting the money to build a Negro Y. M. C. A. in the great city of Chicago. If that institution remains there long the great civil rights law of Illinois will be null and void. Already its presence there has popularized a movement for separate schools and segregation as to homes for our people. "No, our solution is not surrender, but FIGHT! Let the churches and welfare clubs of Cleveland exert extra activity for the moral betterment of Cleveland's youth, and your press, pulpit, your ballot, and every other power within you. Agitate for admission into the associations which bear the name of Jesus who was "no respector of persons," until they acquire a sense of shame." THE APPEAL agrees with every word that Mr. Thomas has written. The Y. M. C. A., social settlements, "Community service," and all similar schemes are efforts at segregation, pure and simple. Their purpose is to bar the colored people from quasi-public institutions, to which all other people are admitted without question. When the "colored" Y. M. C. When the "colored" Y. M. C.

Brown, 640 N. West street; Indianapolis, ind., for Leonard Wood, for which $1.00 per inch is to be paid. ALL AMERICANS UNITED FOR LEONARD WOOD. Indianapolis, Ind., March 31—Wherever the people have had a chance to vote in direct primaries they have shown a decided preference for General Wood, the present-day champion of the late Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's life-long policy of "all men up and no man down." Two weeks ago New Hampshire instructed her delegates for Leonard Wood by a huge majority, notwithstanding the strong-arm tactics of the state machine, which was working for an uninstructed delegation. Last week General Wood won in both Minnesota and South Dakota over great odds of political intrigues and combinations. It is apparent to the most casual observer that General Wood is not a professional politician, because he does not pussyfoot on universal military training, the protec- tion of America first—and a long way first the upholding of the constitution, the rigid enforcement of law and order, the protection of property rights 'as everything tests this,' and guarding to ever- american citizen equality of opportunity without regard to race, color or creed. Leonard Wood is the only candidate to stand on a 100 per cent platform of Americanism. That's why the people are saying if you take the ROW out of President Woodrow, you will have the name of the next president of the United States. Every Colored man and woman in America can become a charter member of the Wood-for-President Club by sending in name and address to 336 Indiana avenue, Indianapolis, Indiana. opened in Chicago, THE APPEAL predicted editorially that it would prove a curse, by reason of creating greater prejudice and the prediction has been more than verified. It will take a thousand years to undo the wrong it has done. Possibly ten thousand years may not right the wrongs done by the establishment of jimcrow Christian(?) associations in the United States. The man who has given so much money to divide American Christians along the color line is a Jew. How could it be possible for a Jew to be interested in the spread of Christianity? The idea is ridiculous. The shrewd Jew knew that by catering to the blind prejudice of the so-called white Christians would bring in dollars. He also knew that jimcrow "negroes" would laud him for his "philanthropy" and start a lot of colored men's white silver dollars rolling his way. It was a plain Jewish business proposition. Capuidity not humanity caused him to spend his money for his pet charity." And it has paid. For every dollar he has put in he has taken out two. The colored man must fight to a finish any attempt to bar him from any public or semi-public institution. LIBERIA OUSTED HUNS. African Republic Was Only Nation to Expel All Germans During the War. London, March — Liberia is said to have been the only state at war with Germany which expelled every German from within its gates and sequestrated all their property. Before the war there were about 300 German citizens in Monrovia, the capital, and Liberia was rapidly becoming a German protectorate, says Alan Bourchier Lethbridge, in the Daily Telegraph. The Germans, he adds, controlled a giant wireless plant and evidently had made arrangements to use Liberia as a link in the chain of colonial possessions.

On a certain farm of four acres in the Lake Phalen district in 1918 a crop of 400 bushels of navy beans was raised, harvested and sold at $8.00 per bushel; in 1919 owing to certain conditions, only 200 bushels were raised which sold for $7.50 per bushel. The owner of this little farm is unable to work it this year, and wishes to secure a man who understands raising beans to work the land. The owner will furnish the land the machinery and the seed and divide the proceeds on a 50-50 basis. All the man will have to do is to perform the work necessary to raise the beans.

Ex-President Receives 1,825 Mystery Notes 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 fly 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. 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 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 a 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 studying irrigation. All of the young women are becoming 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 LOOTER Mexicans Slay Man Accused of Stealing Jewels Off Image in Village Edifice. Mexico City,—Details of the lynching of Juan Galvan, a prominent resident of the village of Zaragoza, in the state of San Luis Potosi, have been received in the capital. El Demmocrata, in publishing the story, declares that this is the first instance of lynching recorded in Mexico. Galvan was publicly accused by the pastor of a church in Zaragoza of robbing the image of a virgin in one of the churches of gold and jewels valued at $5,000. The curate inflamed his hearers, who dragged Galvan from his home, built a funeral pyre and tortured him until he died. The curate has been detained by the authorities. Kitten Saves Master Holyoke, Col.—"White 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 sent to an Eastern taxidermist for mounting. Ploneers declare it to be the largest rattler ever seen in this section.

THIRTY denominations of the Church are uniting in a simultaneous campaign in the week of April 25th-May 2nd. They are uniting because the task before the Church is too great for any one denomination; because there must be no duplication of effort; no waste. These churches know that the world needs many things; but it needs Faith most of all. They know that there can be no final solution of our economic problems that is not a spiritual solution, based on the teachings of Jesus Christ and His Golden Rule. They have had the courage to survey the whole task, and to ask for a budget large enough to sustain (1) the work abroad, (2) the work at home including the church's part in the huge task of Americanization, (3) the colleges and (4) hospitals supported by the Churches, (5) the religious training of the young, and to provide (6) a living wage for the Church's ministers. The budget is large in the aggregate; yet if each person who loves America would increase his contribution by only a few dollars the whole amount would be easily subscribed. We face the task of rebuilding the world. Let the cornerstone be a strong and vital church in every American community; and the measuring rod by which the builders build must be the Golden Rule.

(4-10-20) PAID ADVERTISEMENT Prepared and issued by Dwight T. Reed, 1212 Rice street, for M. N. Goss, 41 W. isabel street, for which $1.00 per inch is to be paid. TO THE VOTERS OF ST. PAUL. M. N. Goss, present Commissioner of Public Works, who is a candidate for re-election, is deserving of the support of every colored man in the city. During the administration of Mr. Goss a greater number of colored men have been given employment than under any previous holder of the office. This fact alone, should be taken as sufficient evidence of his fairmindedness. Let every voter looking toward the future betterment of conditions among colored people cast his ballot at the coming election, Tuesday, May 4th, for those candidates who have shown a friendly disposition toward us. Let us not forget our friends, but let us go to the polls on Tuesday, May 4th, and cast our votes for M. N. Goss for re-election as Councilman. If not already registered, don't forget to register Saturday, April 24th. MEMORIAL MENTIONINGS. To be late in church attendance prevents the accomplishment of much good. Why not come on time? About thirty-seven attended prayer meeting Wednesday evening. The men still predominate in numbers. Memorial stands for the prayer-meeting religion and is calling upon her members to quit the unprofitable careers of the world, such as card playing, pool playing, dancing, parties, and wrestling is a waste of time, and occupy their time by reading the Bible, attending prayer meetings, and engaging in the service of Christ in the S. S., in the B. Y. P. U., and from house to house. If you need mental diversion, read; if you need physical exercise, wash, cook, clean house, and walk to church; if you are low spirited, pray.

Harrison, eminent jurist and orator, of Chicago, delivered an address to a packed house of the colored and white citizens of Temple last night at the Eighth street colored church. "His theme, 'The Hour Has Come,' has to do with the question of making 'Democracy Safe for the World.' 'H. C. Glenn, one of the judge's auditors said, 'I have heard most of the nation's great thinkers and speakers, and unhesitatingly class Judge Harrison with the foremost. His address is scholarly, masterly, illuminating and logical. "From the outset, he gripped his audience with a magnetism that is rare, and for over an hour and a half held it intent upon every word. 'He is a really great man.'"—Temple Daily Telegraph. Temple, Texas, March 26, 1920. Judge Harrison was elected and served as special Judge of the Superior Court of Oklahoma County, when he was a citizen of Oklahoma, and is a member of the Bar of the Supreme Court of the United States. Do not fail to hear him. HERE IS A SNAP. Wanted an experienced maid for general housework—one willing to go to a suburb of Chicago, within one half hour's ride of the city.
