Tenant Population Are in Desperate Straits' Owing to the High Rents. Philadelphia.—A campaign for building homes is Philadelphia's answer to the question of how to keep rent down to a reasonable basis. The tenant population is in desperate straits, for rents have been going higher, and no end seems to be in sight. The scramble for homes in the suburbs is so acute that when one woman moved some of the furniture out of her home the other day in order to clean the house 25 persons tried to rent it from her within a few hours. To stop the profiteering in rents and homes, several organizations are attempting to unite on a program of house building to continue for at least six months, or until the shortage has been relieved. These organizations include associations of tenants, trade unions, representatives of the building trades and mortgaging companies. They have been asked to undertake this work by the department, of public welfare. Meanwhile, camping ground accessible by street cars is in great demand. Tent manufacturers say more orders have been placed for tiles this month than ever before in Philadelphia's history. There is an unprecedented amount of building of cheap cottages and bungalows within a radius of 80 miles of Philadelphia to accommodate the rush of tenants that are exposed when mild weather comes. Those rented in one community cost about $600 each and are eager rented at $350 for the season. Old canal-boats lying along the Schuylkill river are being fitted out as dwellings, and families are glad to rent them as temporary homes. FARMERS SPURN GRAND PIANO Instrument Sells for $2.50 as New Yorkers Pay $150 for Blind Horse. Riverhead, L. I.—The eastern Long Island farmer seems to be a critical fellow. Just because he cannot use a piano to raise potatoes—there's no 'sort of affiliation, apparently, between music and potato growing—the farmer refuses to pay as much for the piano as he will for a blind horse. Frank J. Corwin, the auctioneer, recently astonished the countryside when he got the farmers tumbling all over themselves to bid in a blind horse at $150 and loose hay for the sensational price of $75 a ton. He sort of reasoned that if a blind horse was worth that much a grand piano that could make jazz music without much effort ought to bring around $500. But the farmers fooled him this time, in spite of all his coaxing, in spite of all his claims that Paderewski would be glad to have this instrument, it was knocked down for $2.50. TRIES "MOVIE" STUNT; DIES New York Lad, Aged Fifteen, Strangles Himself to Death with "Third Degree" Device. New York—The death of fifteen-year-old Solomon Bernstein is attributed by his two younger brothers, Samuel, thirteen, and Isador, ten, to what he learned of criminal methods from moving picture plays. Solomon was found strangled to death on the cellar floor of his home. Around his neck was a small rope, thirteen feet long, swinging over a rafter. Tried to the end over a rafter were two iron weights. On the floor beside the body was a butter tub, kicked to pieces, evidently in his efforts to avoid a fatal end to his test of the improvised "third degree." According to the younger boys, the rope and weights to be applied to Isadore, whom Solomon had accused of stealing a fountain pen cap. Washington.—Removal of the American dead from within the fighting zones in France for transportation to the United States will begin after September 15 under an agreement between the United States and French government. Bodies of the dead being moved side these zones now are being moved to this country. The war department, in announcing the agreement, said the terms of the understanding limited the return of bodies of those whose removal to America had been specifically requested by the next of kin. In transporting the bodies to French ports the American government has agreed to use not exceeding a maximum of 100 standard box cars at a time. No More Fixin' for Him Covington, Ky.-Hugh Jones says he is done fixing something for somebody he has been working with, he got to fix, because as he says, "I got myself in a fix trin' things to be fixed." A $25 fine fixed it with the court, when Jones was charged with having connected a copper coil to a still. Revenue agents came upon Jones while he was at work. VOL. 36. NO. 31 COAST TO COAST AIR MAIL LINE Government Officials Plan to Have Service in Operation Soon. UNCLE SAM WILL MAKE PROFIT Planes Will Carry Letters From New York to San Francisco in 38 hours — Lay Route as the Crow Flies. Washington—Uncle Sam will soon have an air mail route from New York to San Francisco. Congress has just increased the aerial appropriation to $1,415,000, an increase for the 1920-21 fiscal year of $644,500, to be used for this project. This will mean that soon it will be possible to mail a letter in New York at 6 p. m. Saturday and get it to San Francisco by 8 a. m. Monday. By rail the same letter could get there no sooner than 8 a. m. Wednesday, more likely Thursday. The postage will be 2 cents. To get a straight fifty-word message the letter will cost $4.70, a night letter $1.20, or a ten-word straight message $1.30. At the same time, Uncle Sam will make a profit on the letter. The air mail routes already established are from New York to Philadelphia; New York to Cleveland, with a stop at Bellefonte, Pa; Cleveland to Chicago, with a stop at Bryan, Ohio. Chicago to Omaha, with a stop at Iowa City. As the Crow Ellea The route is going as straight as a crow can fly toward the coast. With the new appropriation at an early date the route will be extended from Omaha to Cheyenne, to Salt Lake City or Ogden, to Reno, to Sacramento and to San Francisco. The first branch route will run from Chicago to St. Louis, which service is to be inaugurated as soon as the factory delivers the planes, which have been ordered for some time. In due time, when appropriations are made, this line will be extended on south to New Orleans. At the present time twin motor DeHavilands and single motor DeHavilands, capable of carrying 650 and 400 pounds of mail, respectively, are being used. They will be transferred to new routes and Martin and Thomas Morse planes, 1,500-pound capacity, especially for the service will point on the New York Yorker and Cleveland-Chicago routes. The air mail business is growing by leaps and bounds, despite the fact that it is carried for the same rate as other mail. The experiment has been so successful that Postmaster General Burleson looks eagerly to the time when all first-class mail will be carried by airplanes. "An airplane can put a cumbersome mall-distributing coach out of business," is the way one aerial mall division attache express it. "Several of these distributing coaches have been eliminated between Washington and New York. The airplane simply carries the mail, from the south, destined for New York, from Washington on. It arrives in New York early enough to be distributed at the postoffice to carriers for the day's delivery. New York is the largest mall leaving New York at 6:30 a.m. by air reaches Cleveland at 12 noon eastern time (8:30 p.m. by rail) Chicago at 3:15 central time (by rail at 4:30 the next morning). Air mail leaving New York at 9 a.m. reaches Washington at 11:38 a.m. and by rail it arrives at the capital at 3 p.m. Five Martin planes have been delivered to the government. They cost about $40,000 each. Four 1,500-pound capacity Thomas Morse planes are being constructed, and when they are delivered the Chicago-St. Louis branch will be established. The postoffice department now has twenty-four aircraft and twenty-four flyers. When the routes are extended to the coast it will have eighty planes. Since the service was started May 15, 1918, six pilots have been killed. There are forty-two letters to the pound. A Martin or Thomas Morse plane can carry mall on which $1,260 ordinary postage has been paid, to say nothing of the stimulant the rapid service offers to persons to send letters special delivery. All special mall is supposed to go by the quickest means. The extra profit to Uclem Sam in a special is 2 cents, the boy on the bicycle receiving 8 cents for delivering it. This would make the gross revenue for 1,500 pounds of special delivery mail $2,520. Magpies Attack Cattle Deadwood, S. D.—Reports from the Limestone district of the northern Black hills, say magpies prove a real menace to the live stock. Magpies prefer fresh meat to carmion and when carcasses of dead animals are not to be obliterated will attack sheep and cattle. It is said that bison and miniature vultures will circle in the air and then alight on the animal in hundreds and ferociously eat holes in the most tender places. Finish of a Monkey Faced Owl Bardstown, KY.—A fine specimen of the monkey faced owl was killed here in a battle with crows. It measured three feet, tip to, and was of bright golden plumage mottled with gray, its eyes being surrounded with long silky feathers of white. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. AUGUST 7, 1920 MODERN LIFE CAUSE OF ILLS Brings About Innumerable Necessities for Adjustment in Individual. MANY CURED DURING WAR Medical Expert on the Psychoses and Neuroses Developed in Struggle—Chronic Worry Relieved After Real Reason is Found. New York—Fear and anxiety, twin demons that make miserable so many lives, have their origin in inward conflict and can only be conquered by tracing the cause to its source, say Dr. Frankwood Williams, associate medical director of the national committee for mental hygiene, in the current number of Mental Hygiene. Complex life brings about immensely necessities for adjustment in the individual, and failure to make these adjustments, with a measurable degree of success is often responsible for so-called mental or nervous ills, technically termed psychoses or neuroses, according to Doctor Williams, who uses illustrations from the recent war to make this point clear. Many Cured During the War. During the war many men, finding themselves in apparently intolerable positions, sought unconscious refuge in mental or nervous breakdowns. By tracing the history of the conflict so terminating the greater percentage of the mer might have been sent back to their commands completely restored and ready to face whatever might come. In fact, Doctor Williams says, many men of this type did recover completely with the aid of rest and proper psychiatric treatment, and fought bravely. The measure of a man's success in handling life's problems, according to the article, lies in his skill in adjusting himself to the complicated life of modern society. Some fall completely, developing psychoses of a more or less serious nature, others are partly successful, but the difficulties of adjustment set up nervous disturbances that render them neurotic, while the majority succeed in making their adjustments without too great difficulty. Relieving Chronic Worry. Even among those who are apparently successful, however, thousands are found who are annoyed by anxiety, who are "chronic worriers," and those uneasiness arises from an inner conflict which may be got at by the proper methods and relieved. Doctor Williams says there may be obvious reasons anxiety or fear, and that these should be overlooked, but that the rare reason lies deep and must be carefully sought after before relief can come. It is in these cases that the psychiatrist finds his deepest interest and his greatest chance to help. "Where the reaction is out of all proportion to a reasonably assignable cause, or where no reasonable cause may be found, then expert guidance and help are needed," says Doctor Williams, instances of persons afraid to ride in the subway, fearful of being alone, in comfortable, happy surroundings and worrying, and crying without apparent cause. Detective's Hat Stolen in Courtroom Atlanta, Ga.—First it was an automobile taken by thieves while two members of the force were investigating a case. Now it is Detective Howell, whose new $12 hat has attached itself to some unidentified person. The hat disappeared from superior courtroom while Detective Howell was on the witness stand. He placed his overcoat and hat on a nearby seat and began his answers to the prosecutor's quiz. When he got ready to leave he found his overcoat as he had left it, but his hat was gone and another, not so good, was there in its place. DOG REMEMBERED IN WILL Colorado Man Pays Tribute to Companionship and Devotion of Shepherd Dog. Denver, Colo.—The faithful service, devotion and companionship of his shepherd dog are remembered in the will of the late Louis Ferrari, who died at Albuquerque, N. M., en route to his mountain home in Bear Creek canyon, where he hoped that his last breath would be of the pure, pincersed mountain air. Maggie, a beautiful, wonderfully intelligent shepherd dog, was Ferrarfs constant companion for the last 12 years, and in his will he set aside $500 for her care and for her burial. When she dies she is to be placed in a coffin and to rest under a giant pine tree on the sunny slope of Brookvale. A Soldier's Farewell. Lexington Ky.—A letter of farewell which Harry Cunningham wrote just before he went to death in battle was filed as his will for probate. It was addressed to his mother. FEAR WOMAN SHERIFF Female Officer in New Jersey Respected by Lawbreakers. Soon After Her Appointment Mrs. Duer-Demonstrated Her Worth as an Officer. Red Bank, N. J.—The presence of Mrs. Georgeann Duer, acting deputy sheriff, in Red Bank, N. J., is said to be responsible for the scarcity of crime in that vicinity. Shortly after her appointment Mrs. Duer demonstrated her worth as an officer, and was time only a few petty acts of thievery have been reported. Evildoors clear of Sheriff Duer's territory because he is embarrassing habit of turning up unexpectedly at the right point to intercept the fleeing crook with his plunder. This happens because the woman officer has lived in the same locality for 38 years and knows every crook and turn in the highways, all the trolley connections and short cuts across the country. Not only the office of deputy sheriff is filled by Mrs. Duer, but those of mayor and chief of police also have her as an incumbent. In the case of the minor offenders whom she minor, Mayor Duer quickly mutes out herself. When it is a case of "get to know to in two" minutes" the female limb of the law acts in her capacity of chief of police to desirable the shortest route out of Red Bank. She has run twoseculous characters from her domains. Sheriff Duer is the mother of 15 children, nine of whom are boys. While the latter were growing up she organized them into a baseball team. A collection of prizes won by Sheriff Duer for fancy costumes worn by her ot. various occasions decorates the Duer home. Berlin, Germ. — in these disturbed days, w. on the "revolution proffer" haunts his wealth in the face of an impoverished populate, roberies and burglaries in Berlin increase at an abnormal pace. Street signs are full of announcements offering rewards for the return of stolen goods. In one of the main streets a fancy goods store displays this notice: "Gentlemen burglaries are requested not to break open the shop front nor to tamper with the locks. There is nothing to steal here. All property is removed from the shop windows at night." There have been scores of holdups and the other day a man was stripped of his suit, shoes and hat and left on the sidewalk in his underclothes. It is not safe for hotel guests to leave any portable property of any description in their rooms. Cases of housebreaking have quadrupled within the last three years. Nor are churches, cemeteries and museums immune from robberies, the booty carried off being mostly ancient gold ornaments and jewelry. AUNT AND NEPHEW TELL ALL Say They Poisoned Hla Parents Year and a Half Ago in Kansas. Salina, Kas.-Based on statements given him by Miss Stella Hyman and her nephew, Lee Bunch, that Bunch's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bunch, died a year and a half ago as a result of poison administered by Miss Hyman, County Attorney Healy prepared to have warrants issued charging the two with murder. According to the statements of Bunch and his aunt, the alleged conspiracy to kill Mr. and Mrs. Bunch was devised because they refused to surrender the marriage of Miss Hyman and Lee Bunch. Lee Bunch's statement made to Healy at Lincoln Center, a village near here, said Miss Hyman, put the poison in food. She also gave poison to Miss Nancy Bunch, sister of Lee, according to the statement. The sister is a permanent invalid from the effects of the poison, according to physiclans. Mrs. Bunch was Miss Hyman's sister. Educated Mine Rat Opens Dinner Pails of Workers Workmen at the Richards colliery mines at Mount Carmel, Pa., say an educated rat has been responsible for their missing many good dinners recently. According to the矿娘, the rat inserts its tail in the ring of a dinner bucket and then takes a big jump. The lld usually comes off. When lunch time comes the men find their boxes empty. Knoville, Tenn—Man is not the only animal with a thirst. A bull belonging to Frank L. West, county tax assessor, located a still, lubbed too freely and went on a spree. Fences were torn down and the still was destroyed, and then the bull was given a chance to meditate. FORMER GERMAN LINERS MARKED Crafts Which Once Flew the Double Eagle Crippled by Plotters. IMPERATOR IS ONE VICTIM Giant Vessel Develops List at Sea—Bomba Found on Washington—Moccasin Sunk and Callao Disabled. New York—Former German liners and cargo ships, now being operated under the United States flag, appear to have become the objects of subatage by Germans or "reds," who are determined that the craft that formerly flew the double eagle shall not prove of great value to a nation that helped to overthrow Germany. Great Britain is said to be following similar claws, some of which indicate that the attacks on shipping may be the result of the spread of communism and Soviet teachings to the ranks of the International Seamen's union, which controls the men on the ships under the American and other allied flags. The four most aggravated cases which are being considered involve three American vessels and the Imperator, which is flying the flag of the Cunard line since she was turned over to England by the United States. The United States ships are George Washington, on which President Wilson traveled to and from the peace conference, and the cargo carriers Moccasin and so on. Attempts at Damage Shipping. The Imperator, while on a trip to Europe early in March, developed a mysterious list while at sea, which her officers and crew were unable to remedy. It is held to have been caused by a deliberate attempt to disable the giant liner. The Moccasin turned turtle in the Erie basin several months ago. When divers investigated they found her seacocks had been opened and so tampered with that it was impossible to close them. Several bombs were found on the George Washington several miles away. Before she was scheduled to sail for Europe, her on her recent arrival at Rio de Janeiro, was found in an unseaworthy condition as the result of deliberate tampering with her machinery. VIA CRUCIS RITE IS REVIVED Rome Again Witnesses Ancient Ceremony of the Cross in the Coliseum. Rome, Italy. After an interval of fifty years, the Coliseum again has been the scene of the picturesque ceremony of the Via Crucis. Pope Benedict VII who reigned from 1740 to 1758, instituted the ceremony by placing a cross in the center of the arena where martyrs are given their lives for the faith, and creating fourteen stations of the cross. Friday the ancient amphitheater witnessed the solemn rite. The practice was abandoned in 1870, when Rome became the capital of united Italy. The celebrants have once more visited the Coliseum, however, and arrayed in their strange gray garments, which include a cow covering the head and face, have revived the ceremony of old time. Princess Barberini led a column of women, and among the men taking part in the rite were many from patrician families. Farmer, Plowing Up Snake Den, Killed 47 Reptiles: Peter Neyen, who plowing on a farm near Tipton, In., turned over a den of snakes. Neyen ran for a grubbing hoe, which was nearby, and with it dispatched the reptiles. There were 15 snakes in the bunch, and they were of every kind and color. Making another round of the field and coming to the same place, they turned over another big roll of snakes, which he immediately killed, and this time the number was 82, making a total of 47 snakes in the bunch. The snakes measured from 15 to 18 inches in length. The only kind missing was the rattlesnake. Concrete Home for Birds Philadelphia — Dr. B. H. Warren is having a concrete tree built on his lawn at West Chester, Pa., to provide homes for birds. The tree is upon a wire frame 15 feet high, Holes of different sizes will lure the birds to nest and rest. At the base of the tree will be a large concrete bath to provide the guests with running water at all times. Imitation limbs on the "tree" will give perching accommodations. Vicar on War Slang. London — Rev. J. Cartmel-Robinson, vicar of Bedford Park, favors the use of war slang. In his parish magazine he cites "lead-swinger," "tunkhole," and "skrimskeru" as good examples. "We church folk, engaged in the holy war, are more polite than expressive," he said. "We prefer archale language which has lost its point by the respectability even if it means nothing, and can neither cure nor bless." ALASKA OFFERS PULP Forests Could Relieve Shortage, Says Governor Riggs. Billions of Feet of Paper Wood Available for Manufacture into Newsprint. Seattle—Alaska wants to throw open her millions of acres of national forests so that the billions of feet of paper wood of the northland can help relieve the pulp and newsprint famine, Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr., of Alaska declared here recently. Governor Riggs was here on his way from Juneau, capital of Alaska, to Washington, where he expected to help press legislation intended to remove restrictions and allow pulp manufacturers to go into the Tongass and Chugua reservations, the northern territory's two great reserves. Pulp and paper men are anxious to go to Alaska, and establish mills as great as those operated in British Columbia not far south of the Alaska boundary line, the government asserted. Under the present laws the pulp makers cannot enter the reservations with any certainty that they will be allowed to stay. Alaska's great forests stretch over approximately 34,000 square miles, an area nearly equal in size to the state of Indiana, according to estimates made by government officials. Several hundred million feet of good pulp wood, including western yellow pine, hemlock, Stitka spruce, white fir and lodgepole pine, are on the forest reserves alone. The Tongass reserve, in southeastern Alaska, is especially adapted to the manufacture of pulp and paper, forestry officials have reported. There is plenty of water power, ocean horizons open the year around, timber skirting the water and weather similar to that of the Puget sound. The governor intends to ask Washington to restore the reserves to the national domain or to open them to the pulp industry. SWINGING PILLAR IS FOUND Hunters Uncover Phenomenon in Green Mountain, Near Canon City, Col. Canon City, Colo.-Gently swaying to and fro, a huge granite monolith forming a unique natural monument has been discovered on Green mountain, several miles north of this city. It is believed to be the only "swinging monument" in the world. The shaft is more than 100 feet high, and in the course of many years has become free from all surrounding earth formation, except at the base, which is about 12 feet wide. In the center, the granite column tapers to a width at the summit practically the same as at the base. Lee Hodgkin, commissioner of Canon City, and A. V. Hodgkin, fremont county commissioner, came across the phenomenon recently while on a hunting trip. They report that the entire shaft moves, probably from two to three feet at the apex, and the swinging is constant under the pressure of light winds. The base of the shaft, they said, rests in a small hollow about three feet in depth and the contiguous granite formation has been entirely disconnected. SAYS LAWSUITS ARE CHEAP New York Judge Denies Charge That Poor Do Not Receive Justice. New York—The assertion that the poor man does not receive justice in court, made recently in a report of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, was contradicted by Judge Frederick E. Crane of the court of appeals. Speaking before the women members of the Kings County Republican club, he declared that "the chief litigation in our courts is today conducted by the poor, or persons of moderate means, and at no time and in no country have the rights and remedies of the law been so easily procured." "Nowhere in the world is litigation so cheap or redress for wrong so readily afforded to the poor," Judge Crane said. "Any law office of standing can furnish instances of litigation conducted without charge for services rendered because of the condition of the parties." German Who Sunk Sussex Dead German who Sukis Sussex Dead. Berlin.—A first lieutenant in command of a German submarine torpedoed the German ship Sussex on March 24, 1918, according to a local newspaper which comments on the extradition list received from the allies. It is declared this man has since died. Captain Steinbrink is charged on the extradition list with being responsible for the attack upon the Sussex, which caused the death of 50 persons. An Ancient Rock. Bloomington, Ind.-There are rocks and rocks! Indiana university students see Monroe county limestone in great quantities, but rock-callous as they are, they have taken a special interest just now in a rock that makes Monroe county varieties youngsters in comparison. The specimen has just been received by the department of geology from the Smithsonian institution. Geologists here say that it is fairly old-a billion and a half years, MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY $2.40 PER YEAR IS SWEPT BY DEADLY TYPHUS Two Million Cases in Russia— Conditions in Poland Appalling. U. S. RELIEF BOARD SWAMPED Several of Its Officers and Men Have Died, Among Them One in Charge at Tarnopol-Shortage of Supplies. Warsaw.-General Petura's Ukrainian government, which, despite its amazing weakness, remains the nearest approach to organized authority that exists between the East Galician frontier and the Dnalepe, has sent its minister of public works, Mr. Bezalke, to Warsaw to appeal for assistance in fighting the incredible typhus conditions in the Petura country. He reports that 10,000 men, the remnants of Petura's Ukrainian force, have been stricken with the disease and that the 30,000 men of the East Galician army, commanded by Pavlenko, who from time to time have co-operated with Petura, are in an almost equally bad plight. About half the cases have proved fatal. Hands Are Occupied. It is virtually certain that the Poles will not be able to give assistance to the Ukrainians because their hands are more than occupied in combating the spread of the disease in Poland. There is some typhus in Warsaw—5,000 cases perhaps; Drinkn, recently captured from the bovishveik, is in an appalling condition; the epidemic has swept in virulent form as far west as Cracow, where the normal activities are half paralyzed; in most of the villages on the eastern frontiers more than half the inhabitants are sick and there is a disturbing amount of typhus in the army. Where 20 fumigating machines are needed, the Poles have one; where a gallon of carbolic acid is required they have a gill. The American typhus commission, which, with 5,000 men and 750 officers, came here last summer to prepare to combat the disease this winter, has been overwhelmed; even the vast supply of the commission have been proved inadequate. Several officers and men of the commission have died, including a colonel who was in charge of the work at Tarnopol. So there is small prospect that Patrens can find any help here. Reliable reports indicate that soviet Russia is being devastated by the disease. In the recent exchange of prisoners between the Poles and the bolshevkii, there arrived here a Doctor Czechowitz, who over a year ago was impressed into the bolshevkii service as a sanitary expert and assigned to the work of dealing with typhus. He says that in March of last year there were 1,340,000 known cases of typhus in bolshevkii Russia and that condition was still active last year. He estimates that there are now at least 2,000,000 cases in Russia. The soviet government has almost no facilities for controlling the disease and comparatively few physicians are available to care for the sick. In consequence the percentage of deaths is now enormous, Czechowitz says. Usually Follows War. Such an epidemic as the present one almost inevitably follows a period of war in central Europe. It is to be attributed to insufficient food supplies, weakening the resistance of the people, and to lack of clothing, frequently making cleanliness difficult even for the moderately well-to-do and impossible for the poor. A common assertion is that typhus is as great a menace to social quiet as bolshevism. But competent observers here do not believe this. The people of this part of the world, they argue, have come through centuries to accept the peril of typhus as an unescapable concomitant of life. Certainly from Poles one hears little outcry at present conditions; it is only those who have known Western civilization who are shocked by the spread and violence of the disease. The Polish cabinet has reached no decision on the proposal to quarantine the country and it is hoped that suspension of the railroad service for two weeks, because of the coal crisis, may have a favorable effect upon the typhus situation, which could never have attained the proportions it has if travel had been supervised and restricted a month ago. CURE FOR PLANT DISEASES Botanists at Cambridge University, England, Claim to Make Vegetation Immune. Cambridge, England—Cambridge university botanists claim that it is now possible to breed disease-proof plants. A special body of investigators who have been devoting themselves to the practical testing of the Mendelian heredity law are engaged in immunizing wheat, oats, barley, potatoes and roots, the results of which will be shown in the summer to a distinguished assembly of medical men. The "plant doctors," as they are called, have already succeeded in breeding a new wheat known as "yeoman" which has yielded 12 quarters (06 bushels) to the acre—three times an ordinary crop.

Philadelphia.—A campaign for building homes is Philadelphia's answer to the question of how to keep rents down to a reasonable basis. The tenant population is in desperate straits, for rents have been going higher, and no end seems to be in sight. The簆mortgage for homes in the suburbs is when one woman moved some of the furthest out of her home the other day in order to clean the house 25 person tried to rent it from her within a few hours. To stop the prudenteering in rents and homes, several organizations are attempting to unite on a program of house building to continue for at least six months, or until the shortage has been relieved. These organizations include associations of tenants, trade unions, representatives of the building trades and mortgaging companies. They have been asked to undertake this work by the department, of public welfare. Meanwhile, camping, ground accessible by street cars is in great demand. Tent manufacturers say more orders have been placed for tents this month than ever before in Philadelphia's history. There is an unprecedented amount of building of cheap cots and bungalows within a radius of 30 miles of Philadelphia to accommodate the rush of tenants that is expected with mild weather comes. Those erected in community cost about $600 each and are eager rented at $350 for the season. Old canal-boats lying along the Schuylkill river are being fitted out as dwellings, and families are glad to rent them as temporary homes. FARMERS SPURN GRAND PIANO Instrument Sells for $2.50 as New Yorkers Pay $150 for Blind Horse. Riverhead, L. I. The eastern Long Island farmer seems to be a critical fellow. Just because he cannot use a piano to mute potatoes—there is no sort of affiliation, apparently, between music and potato growing—the farmers refuse to pay as much for the piano as he will for a blind horse. Frank J. Corwin, the auctioneer, recently astonished the countryside when he got the farmers tummled all over themselves to bid in a blind horse at $150 and loose hay for the sensational price of $75 a ton. He sort of reasoned that if a blind horse was worth that much a grand piano that could make jazz music without much effort ought to be brought to him. But the farmers fooled him this time. In spite of all his coxing, in spite of all his claims that Paderweski would be glad to have this instrument, it was knocked down for $2.50. TRIES "MOVIE" STUNT; DIES New York Lad, Aged Fifteen, Strangles Himself to Death with "Third Degree" Device. New York—The death of fifteen-year-old Solomon Bernstein is attributed by his two younger brothers, Samuel, thirteen, and Isador, ten, to what he learned of criminal methods from moving picture plays. Solomon was found strangled to death on the cellar floor of his home. Around his neck was a small rope, tied in a noose. The other end was swapped with a rooftop, the end over a rafter were two iron rooftops. On the floor beside the body was a butter tub, kicked to pieces, evidently in his efforts to avoid a fatal end to his test of the improvised "third degree." According to the younger boys, the rope and weights were to be applied to Isadore, whom Solomon had accused of stealing a fountain pen cap. AGREE ON REMOVING DEAD French to Permit Dismalment of U. S. Men in the Fighting Zones September 15. Washington—Removal of the American dead from within the fighting zones in France for transportation to the United States will begin after September 15 under an agreement between the American and French government. Bodies of men buried outside these zones now are being moved to this country. The war department, in announcing the agreement, said the terms of the understanding limited the return of bodies of those whose removal to America had been specifically requested by the next of kin. In transporting the bodies to French ports the American government has agreed to use not exceeding a maximum of 100 standard box cars at a time. Coriandre Ky-Hugh Jones says he is done fixing something somebody without knowing what he's got to fix, because, as he says, "I got myself in a fix frin' things to be fixed." A $25 fine fixed it with the court, when Jones was charged with having connected a copper coll to a still. Revenue agents came upon Jones while he was at work. THE APPEAL. Brings About Inumerable Necessities for Adjustment in Individual. MANY CURED DURING WAR Medical Expert on the Psychoses and Neuroses Developed in Struggle—Chronic Worry Relieved After Real Reason Is Found. New York.—Fear and anxiety, twin demons that make miserable so many lives, have their origin in inward conflict and can only be conquered by tracing the trouble to its source, says Dr. Frankwood E. Williams, associate medical director of the national committee for mental hygiene, in the current number of Mental Hygiene. Complex community life brings about innumerable necessities for adjustment in the individual, and failure to make these adjustments with a measurable degree of success is often required for称 mental or nervous lilies, technically terrifying psychoses or neuroses, according to Doctor Williams, who uses illustrations from the recent war to make this point clear. Many Cured During the War. During the war many men, finding themselves in apparently intolerable positions, sought unconscious refuge in mental or nervous breakdowns. By tracing the history of the conflict so terminating the greater percentage of the enemy, they became back to their commands completely stored and ready to face whatever might come. In fact, Doctor Williams says, many men of this type did recover completely with the aid of rest and proper psychiatric treatment, and fought bravely. The measure of a man's success in handling life's problems, according to the article, lies in his skill in adjusting himself to the complicated life of modern society. Some fall, completely, developing psychoses of a more or less serious nature, but the difficulties of adjustment set up nervous disturbances that render them neurotic, while the majority succeed in making their adjustments without too great difficulty. Having chronic worry. Even among those who are apparently successful, however, thousands are found to be annoyed by anxiety, who are "chrono warriors," and whose uneasiness arises from an inner conflict which may be at by the use of proper methods and may be obvious rasons for anxiety or fear, and that these should not be overlooked, but that often the real reason lies deep and must be carefully sought after before relief can come. It is in these cases that 'the psychiatrist finds his deepest interest and his greatest chance to help. "Where the reaction is out of all proportion to a reasonably assignable cause, or where no reasonable cause may be found, then expert guidance and help are needed," says Doctor Williams, citing instances of persons afraid to ride in the subway, fearful of being alone, in comfortable, happy surroundings and worrying, and crying without apparent cause. Detective's Hat Stolen in Courtroom Atlanta, Ga.—First it was an automobile taken by thieves while two members of the force were investigating a case. Now it is Detective Howell, whose new $12 hat has attached itself to some unidentified person. The hat disappeared from superior courtroom while Detective Howell was on the witness stand. He placed his overcoat and hat on a nearby seat and began his answers to the prosecutor's quiz. When he got ready to leave he found his overcoat as he had left it, but his hat was gone and another, not so good, was there in its place. DOG REMEMBERED IN WILL Colorado Man Pays Tribute to Companionship and Devotion of Shepherd Dog. Denver, Colo.—The faithful service, devotion and companionship of his shepherd dog are remembered in the will of the late Louis Ferrari, who died at Albuquerque, N. M., en route to his mountain home in Bear Creek canyon, where he hoped that his last breath would be of the pure, pine-scented mountain air. Maggle, a beautiful, wonderfully intelligent shepherd dog, was Ferrari's constant companion for the last 12 years, and in his will he be set aside $500 for her care and for her burial. When she dies she is to be placed in a coffin and laid to rest under a giant pine tree on the sunny slope of Brookvale. A Soldier's Farewell. Lexington, Ky.—A letter of farewell which Harry Cunningham wrote just before he went to death in battle was fled as his will for probate. It was addressed to his mother. FEAR WOMAN SHERIFF Female Officer in New Jersey Respected by Lawbreakers. Soon After Her Appointment Mrs. Duer-Demonstrated Her Worth as an Officer. Red Bank, N. J.—The presence of Mrs. Georgeanna Duer, acting deputy sheriff, in Red Bank, N. J., is said to be responsible for the scarcity of crime in that vicinity. Shortly after her appointment Mrs. Duer demonstrated her worth as an officer, and since that time only a few petty acts of thievery have been reported. Doilders steer clear of Sheriff Duer's territory because she has the embarrassing habit of turning up unexpectedly at the right point to intercept the feeling crook with his plunder. This happens because the woman officer has lived in the same locality for 38 years and knows every crook and turn in the highways, all the trolley connections and short cuts across the country. Not only the office of deputy sheriff is filled by Mrs. Duer, but those of mayor and chief of police also have hat as an incumbent. In the case of the minor offenders whom she arrests, Mayor Duer quickly metes out justice herself. When it is a case of "get out of town in two minutes" the female limb of the law acts in her capacity of police of chief and shows undesirable the route out of Red Bank. She has run twoscore or more of these suspicious characters from her domains. Sheriff Duer is the mother of 15 children, nine of whom are boys. While the latter were growing up she organized them into a baseball team. A collection of prizes won by Sheriff Duer for fancy costumes worn by her or various occasions decorates the Duer home. Berlin, Gern, y—In these disturbed days, when the "revolution proffered" haunt his wealth in the face of an impoverished populace, barberies and burglaries in Berlin increase at an abnormal pace. Street signs are full of announcements offering rewards for the return of stolen goods. In one of the main streets a fancy goods store displays this notice: "Gentlemen burglaries are requested not to break open the shop front nor to tamper with the locks. There is nothing to steal here. All property is removed from the shop windows at night." There have been scores of holdups and the other day a man was stripped of his suit, shoes and hat and left on the sidewalk in his underclothes. It is not safe for hotel guests to leave any portable property of any description in their rooms. Cases of housebreaking have quadrupled within the last three years. Nor are churches, cemeteries and museums immune from robberies, the booty carried off being mostly ancient gold ornaments and jewelry. AUNT AND NEPHEW TELL ALL Say They Poisoned Hla Parents Year and a Half Ago in Kansas. Salina, Kas.-Based on statements given him by Miss Stella Hyman and her nephew, Lee Bunch, that Bunch's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edward Bunch, died a year and a half ago as a result of poison administered by Miss Hyman, County Attorney Healy prepared to have warrants issued charging the two with murder. According to the statements of Bunch and his aunt, the alleged conspiracy to kill Mr. and Mrs. Bunch was devised because they refused to sanction the marriage of Miss Hyman and Lee Bunch. Lee Bunch's statement made to Healy at Lincoln Center, a village near Hyman, Miss Hyman, put the poison in food. She also gave poison to Miss Nancy Bunch, sister of Lee according to the statement. The sister is a permanent invalid from the effects of the poison, according to physicans. Mrs. Bunch was Miss Hyman's sister. Educated Mine Rat Opens Dinner Pails of Workers Workmen at the Richards colliery mines at Mount Carmel, Pa., say an educated rat has been responsible for their missing many good dinners recently. According to the miners, the rat inserts its tail in the ring of a dinner bucket and then takes a big jump. The lid usually comes off. When lunch time comes the men find their boxes empty. Bull Has a Morning After- Knoxville, Tenn.—Man is not the only animal with a thirst. A bull belonging to Frank L. West, county tax assessor, located a still, imbibed too freely and went on a spree. Fences were torn down and the still was destroyed, and then the bull was given a chance to meditate. FORMER GERMAN LINERS MARKED Crafts Which Once Flew the Double Eagle Crippled by Plotters. IMPERATOR IS ONE VICTIM Giant Vessel Develops List at Sea—Bombs Found on Washington—Moccasin Sunk and Callao Disabled. New York—Former German liners and cargo ships, now being operated under the United States flag, appear to have become the objects of sabotage by Germans or "reds," who are determined that the craft that formerly flew the double eagle shall not prove of great value to a nation that helped to overthrow Germany. Great Britain is said to be following similar cases of some of which indicate that the attacks on shipping may be the result of the spread of communism and Soviet teachings to the ranks of the International Seamen's union, which controls the men on the ships under the American and other allied flags. The four most aggravated cases which are being considered involve three American vessels and the Imperator, which is flying the flag of the Cunard line since she was turned over to England by the United States. The United States ships are George Washington, on which President Wilson traveled to and from the peace conference, and the cargo carriers Mocasin and Callao. Attempts to Damage Ships. The titan, while on a trip to Europe early in March, developed a mysterious list while at sea, officers and crew were unable to rumble. It is held to have been caused by a deliberate attempt to disable the giant liner. The Moccasin turned turtle in the Erle bris several months ago. When divers investigated they found her seacocks had been opened and so tampered with that it was impossible to close them. Several bombs were found on the George Washington several months before she was scheduled to sail for France, and on her recent arrival at Rio de Janeiro, was found in an unseaworthy condition as the result of deliberate tampering with her machinery. VIA CRUCIS RITE IS REVIVED Rome Again Witnesses Ancient Ceremony of the Cross in the Coliseum. Rome, Italy. After an interval of fifty years, the Coliseum again has been the scene of the picturesque ceremony of the Via Crucis. Pope Benedict XIV, who reigned from 1740 to 1758, instituted the ceremony by placing a cross in the center of the arena where martyrs had lived for the faith, and erecting foundations of the cross. Each Friday the ancient amphitheater witnessed the solemn rite. The practice was abandoned in 1870, when Rome became the capital of united Italy. The celebrants have once more visited the Coliseum, however, and arrayed in their strange gray garments, which include a cow covering the head and face, have revived the ceremony of old time. Princess Barberini led a column of women, and among the men taking part in the rite were many from patrician families. Farmer, Plowing Up Snake Den, Killed 47 Reptiles: Peter Neyen, while plowing on a farm near Tipton, In, turned over a dozen of snakes. Neyen ran for a grubbing hoe, which was nearby, and with it dispatched the reptiles. There were 15 snakes in the bunch, and they were of every kind and color. Making another round of the field and coming to the same place, Neyen turned over an amphibian-coll of snakes, and he immediately killed, and this time the number was 32, making a total of 47 snakes in the bunch. The snakes measured from 15 to 18 inches in length. The only kind missing was the rattlesnake. Concrete Home for Birds home for birds. Philadelphia - Dr. B. H. Warren is having a concrete built on his lawn at West Chester. He provides homes for birds. The tree is a wide frame 15 feet high. Holes of different sizes will lure the birds to nest and rest. At the base of the tree will be a large concrete bath to provide the guests with running water at all times. Imitation limbs on the "tree" will give perching accommodations. Vicar on War Slang. London - Rev. J. Cartmel-Robinson, vicar of Bedford Park, favors the use of war slang. In his parish magazine he cites "lead-swinger", "tunkhole", and "skrimshanker" as good examples. "We church folk, engaged in the war, are more polite than expressive, and prefer archeate languages which has less use long use. We cling to respectability even if it means nothing, and can neither curse nor bless." ALASKA OFFERS PULP Forests Could Relieve Shortage, Says Governor Riggs. Billions of Feet of Paper Wood Available for Manufacture into Newsprint. Seattle—Alaska wants to throw open her millions of acres of national forests so that the billions of feet of paper wood of the northland can help relieve the pulp and newsprint famine, Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr. of Alaska declared here recently. Governor Riggs was here on his way from Juneau, capital of Alaska, to Washington, where he expected to help press pending legislation intended to remove restrictions and allow pulp manufacturers to go into the Tongass and Chagos reservations, the northern territory's great reserves. Pulp and paper men are anxious to go to Alaska and establish mills as great as these, operated in the British Columbia not far south of the Alaska boundary line, the governor asserted. Under the present laws the pulp makers cannot enter the reservations with any certainty that they will be allowed to stay. Alaska's great forests stretch over approximately 430,000 square miles, an area nearly equal in size to the state of Indiana, according to estimates made by government officials. Several hundred million feet of good pulp wood, including western yellow pine, hemlock, Sitka spruce, white fir and lodgepole pine, are on the forest reserves alone. The Tongass reserve, in southeastern Alaska, is especially adapted to the manufacture of pulp and paper, forestry officials have reported. There is plenty of water power, ocean horizons open the year around, timber skirting the water and weather similar to that of the Puget sound. The governor intends to ask Washington to restore the reserves to the national domain or to open them to the pulp industry. SWINGING PILLAR IS FOUND Hunters Uncover Phenomenon In Green Mountain, Near Canon City, Col. Canon City, Colo.-Gently swaying to and fro, a huge granite monolith forming a unique natural monument has been discovered on Green mountain, some 100 miles from this city. It is believed to be the only "swiping monument" in the world. The shaft is more than 100 feet high, and in the course of many years has become free from all surrounding earth formation, except at the base, which is about 12 feet wide. In the center, the granite column tapers off to a width at the summit practically the same as at the base. Lee Hughitt, water commissioner of Green Mountain, Hodgkin, Fremont county commissioner, came across the phenomenon recently while on a hunting trip. They report that the entire shaft moves, probably from two to three feet at the apex, and the swinging is constant under the pressure of light winds. The base of the shaft, they say, forms a smooth follow about the feet in depth and the smooth granite formation has been entirely disconnected. SAYS LAWSUITS ARE CHEAP New York.—The assertion that the poor man does not receive justice in court, made recently in a report of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, was contradicted by Judge Frederick E. Crane of the court of appeals. Speaking before the women members of the Kings County Republican club, he declared that "the chief litigation in our courts is today conducted by the poor, or persons of moderate means, and at no time and in no country have the rights and remedies of the law been so easily procured. Where in the world is litigation so cheap or redress for wrong so readily afforded to the poor." Judge Crane said. "Any law office of standing can furnish instances of litigation conducted without charge for services rendered because of the condition of the parties." German Who Sunk Sussex Dead. Berlin.—A first lieutenant in command of a German submarine torpedoed the English channel steamer Sussex on March 24, 1916, according to a local newspaper which comments on the extradition list received from the allies. It is doch of this man has died, Captain Steinbrück is charged on the extradition list with being responsible for the attack upon the Sussex, which caused the death of 50 persons. An Ancient Rock. Bloomington, Ind.—There are rocks and rocks! Indiana university students see Monroe county limestone in great quantities, but rock-callous as they are, they have taken a special interest just now in a rock that makes Monroe county varieties youngsters in comparison. The specimen has just been received by the department of geology from the Smithsonian institution, here say that it is still old, a billion and a half years, approximately. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY $2.40 PER YEAR IS SWEPT BY DEADLY TYPHUS Two Million Cases in Russia— Conditions in Poland Appalling. U. S. RELIEF BOARD SWAMPED Several of Its Officers and Men Have Died, Among The One in Charge at Tarnopol—Shortage of Supplies. Warsaw—General Petura's Ukrainian government, which, despite its amazing weakness, remains the nearest approach to organized authority that exists between the East Galician frontier and the Dnifeper, has sent its minister of public works, Mr. Bezkalu, to Warsaw to appeal for assistance in fighting the incredible typhus conditions in the Petura country. He reports that 10,000 men, the remnants of Petura's Ukrainian force, have been stricken with the disease and that the 30,000 men of the East Galician army, commanded by Pavlenko, who from time to time have co-operated with Petura, are in an almost equally bad plight. About half the cases have proved fatal. It is virtually certain that the Poles will not be able to give assistance to the Ukrainians because their hands are more than occupied in combating the spread of the disease in Poland. There is some typhus in Warsaw—5,000 cases perhaps; Dvinsk, recently captured from the bolsheviki, is in an appalling condition; the epidemic has swept in violent form as far west as Cracow, where the normal activities are half paralyzed; in most of the villages on the eastern frontiers more than half of the population there is a disturbing amount of typhus in the army. Where 20 fumigating machines are needed, the Poles have one; where a gallon of carbolic acid is required they have a gill. The American typhus commission, which, with 5,000 men and 750 officers, came here last summer to prepare to combat the disease this winter, has been overwhemed; even the vast supplies the commission brought have proved insufficient. Several officers and men of the commission have died, including a colonel who was in charge of the work at Tarnopol. So there is small prospect that Petlura can find any help here. Reliable reports indicate that soviet Russia is being devastated by the disease. In the recent exchange of prisoners between the Poles and the bolshevkii, there arrived here a Doctor Czechowitz, who over a year ago was impressed into the bolshevkii service as a sanitary expert and assigned to the work of dealing with typhus. He says that in March of last year there were 1,340,000 known cases of typhus in bolshevkii Russia and that conditions this year are worse than last year. In fact, there are now at least 2,000,000 cases in Russia. The Soviet government has almost no facilities for controlling the disease and comparatively few physicians are available to care for the sick. In consequence the percentage of deaths is now enormous, Czechowitz says. Usually Follows War. Such an epidemic as the present one almost inevitably follows a period of war in central Europe. It is to be attributed to insufficient food supplies, weakening the resistance of the people, and to lack of clothing, frequently making cleanliness difficult even for the moderately well-to-do and impossible for the poor. A common assertion is that typhus is as great a menace to social quiet as bolshevism. But competent observers here do not believe this. The people of this part of the world, they argue, have come through centuries to accept the peril of typhus as an unescapable concomitant of life. Certainly from Poles one hears little outcry at present conditions; it is only those who have known Western civilization who are shocked by the spread and violence of the disease. The Polish cabinet has reached no decision on the proposal to quarantine the country and it is hoped that suspension of the railroad service for two weeks, because of the coal crisis, may have a favorable effect upon the typhus situation, which could never have attained the proportions it has if travel had been supervised and restricted a month ago. CURE FOR PLANT DISEASES Botanists at Cambridge University, England, Claim to Make Vegetation Immune. Cambridge, England—Cambridge university botanists claim that it is now possible to breed disease-proof plants. A special body of investigators who have been devying themselves to the practical testing of the Mendelian heredity law are engaged in immunizing wheat, oats, cabbage, potatoes and roots, the results of which will be shown in the summer to a distinguished assembly of medical men. The "plant doctors," as they are called, have already succeeded in breeding a new wheat known as "yeso," which is resistant to (06 bushels) to the acre—three times an ordinary crop.

SEGREGATION IN CAMPAIGN. For two years THE APPEAL has been writing to the Chairman and other officers of the Republican Na: tlonal Committee and prominent Re pubileans all over the country on va rious party policies, giving the view- point of @ large number of colored voters, and the replies received in- variably sald that the contentions were right. In the matter of putting colored men on the platform and policies com- mittee of the Republican National Committee, appointed last January, Chairman Hays accepted the viewpoint ot THE APPEAL and appointed five colored men as full and equal mem- dors, ‘Then came suggestions for the in corporation of certain planks in the party platform. THE APPEAL was not alone, the National Association tor the Advancement of Colored Peo- ple, the National Equal Rights League, and a number of strong national and local organizations ‘offered planks, which, although differently worded, were the same in meaning. In the matter of lynching, the platform com- mittee of the Republican National Con- vention, dn the language of a prominent colored women, “when we asked for a plank, gave us a splinter.” The other Planks offered for the abolition of sexg- regation in the civil service, in the Army, in the Navy, and on common carriers, were all thrown into the dis. card, : Je Recently THE APPEAL has written to the nominees, Republican National Committee people-and prominent Re- publicans, asking that jimcrowism be eliminated, and we were led to-belleve that, in spite of the fact that the Republican National Convention had sidestepped a clear-cut plank for equal rights for all Americans, ‘there would be no segregation in the campaign. . Now comes the information that a segregated colored bureau is to be es- tablished, with Mr. Henry’ Lincoln ‘Johnson, of Georgia, at its head.

A feady-addressed stamped en- velope was enclosed for’ a reply, but, up to this writing, no reply has been received. The Cleveland Advécate is authority for the statement that Mr. Johnson will select speakers “‘who will address colored gatherings exclusively and no speakers will bo assigned to speak from the same platform with a white speaker and before a mixed audience.” If this is true, it 1s the most outrag- eous segregation of which we have ever heard in politics. If white and colored citizens of a-common country can not meet dn a political campaign, /where-on earth can they meet? This is segregation with a vengeance and if this is to be the policy of the Repib- Ucan’ National Committee in the pres- ent campaign, THE APPEAL does not hositate to say that it is infamous and should be reversed immediately. It should not only be reversed, but wide publicity should be given to the fact of ite reversal. Further, proof should be given that it really has. been changed ‘by having good colored speakers ap. pear and address ‘all of the large meet ings in the large cities of the country. ‘There is no necessity for a segre- Bated colored burean, and in spite of the fact that some, who have axes to grind, favor it, its formation is really ‘ansingult to the party loyalty of the coloréd people.

And’ there is a fatal defect: The colored voters are expected to swallow the bait and aup- port the party on faith, Neither. the party nor the platform, nor the nomi- nee, gives any assurance that the pro: gram will be carried out in case the Republican party regains power. “The only way to be sure of its fuifliment fs for the nominee to say NOW that he will carry it out and then let. the publicity men and spellbinders’spread the news. ‘Mr. Johnson {s a shrewd politiclan afd he knows that all “deals” must be made BEFORE the election or they do not amount to much. ‘Mr. Johnson does not take anything for grantedin his“own personal political deals. Al- though not from Georgia, one must always “show” him. In the recent pro-convention campaign it is alleged that he made several pilgrimages to the capital of Illinois and conferred with Governor Lowden and Secretary of State Emerson, and it is said to have been arranged that if he secured Lowden delegates that cash would be turnished for the expenses of the cam- paign in Georgia and that Johnson vrouta be given a fat job. Mr. Johnson, in his own testimony before the Sen- ‘ate Investigating Committee, estab: ished the'fact that he received $9,000 from the Lowden fund, for. tile: ex- penses of securing delegates pledged to Lowden, He did not try to got delegates with a “program.” He should use the same care in arranging a “program” for the colored people. tb see that there are some pledges behind ft, Without a definite pledge it means little,’ perhaps nothing. °. -- RIGHTS SHOULD BE SAME. In a general way, Hr. Harding, the Republican candidate for President, says that he is for the rights of col- ored men. He says, “I believe that colored men should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights.” ‘Those are good words and we thank him for having said them; but in the United States there is a wide diver- gence of views as to the rights of the “Negro,” or colored man” or “Afro- American.” In one state it means one thing and something else in another state, Even in Ohio “rights” of the colored man has an uncertain mean- ing. In the South, “rights” for any other than a@ white man has little meaning, . Mr. Harding would enhance his chances for securing the votes of éol- ored men and women by stating that the rights of both white and colored American citibens should be absolute- ly identical. ‘Mr. Harding, it elected, the first thing you can do, without the “advice and consent” of the Congress, will be to issue an executive order abolishing racial segregation, which is carried on in the departments at Washington and in some parts 6f'the country without warrant of law. 'Mr. ‘Harding, 4t elected, will you 4s ‘sue such an order? Mr, Harding, it elected, will _you favor the enforcement of the Civil ‘War Amendments to the Constitution, as well as other amendments, and 30 recommend in your messages to Con- gress? ‘Mr. Harding, it elected, will you recommend and endeavor to. secure the enactment of a Federal ‘anti-lynch- ing law? 3 Mr. Harding, if elected, will you en- eavor to secure the abolition of the Jimerow ,car in thterstate.travel? ‘Mr, Harding,“it elected, will you recoiamend® and endeavor’ to secure legislation” abolishing the “color line in thé Unued States Army and in the United Sta‘es Navy? ‘Mr, Harding: ‘The things asked for are not to secure special privileges, but to-abolish special privileges, to the end that the rights of citizenship may be equal without regard to rac, color, creed or sex. JAMAICA. Jamaica 1s a British colony, the largest islgnd.of the British West In- dies, so the Governor General and other chief officials are sent over from England to rule the Jamaicans, but colored men have risen to the highest places, to which native Jamaicans may aspire. The Attorney General, the Assistant Postmaster General, the As- sistant Collector of Customs and the Assistant Registrar Gerieral are col ored men. Many’ of the largest businesses are conducted by colored men. The larg. e&t department store in Kingston, the capital “and principal. city of the island ie owi@d ‘by gnon of mixed black aid white blood, and the sales ladies are the most beautiful black, colored, Chino-Jamaican, Japanese-Jamaican, Jewish-Jamaican, _, Hindu-Jamaican, Spanish-Jamaican, | FrenchJamaican and Caucasian girls, that the island affords, all working together in per fect harmony and with n® thought of color. : There is no color line, and. the dit ferent races and colors mingle freely in civil and social life without any {friction whatever. Of course, some of the English who come over to be pub Iie officials, try to form a Uttle elique fot their own, and the few American: ‘are horrified to find that there are no social distinctions based on. color. ‘but their opinion cut no figure, and they are compelled to accept the con ditions’ as they find them. ‘The majority of the people are com municants-of the Church’ of England, though there are many Catholics, Wes. leyans ‘and ‘Baptists. ‘Practically al of the people attend the same churches, there being no such thing as 8 “colored” branch of the Church of England.; In recent years the Bap tists and Methodists from the United States have organized “colored ‘branches of these churches. JAMAICA WOMEN TO VOTE. ‘Under @ new law the women of Jamaica, British W. st Indies, are to have a yote in the élections for the Parochial. boards and the legislature. Every woman is entitled to vote if she is 26 years of age or more, can réad and write, and is of British na- tonality, bet she must have also cer- tain ‘salary"or property qualifications. The salary Sesignated is $25 per year, or she must pay $50 in rent or $10 taxes. on house, lands or personal property. The requirements are so liberal that it is estimated that ninety per cent of the women can meet them, According to ‘the census the popu- lation of Jamaica is about 850,000, classified as “black,” 650,000; “‘col- ored,” 180,000; “white,” 20,000. As a matter of fact, according to recent visitors; there are, actually not 2,000 people who can trace thelr ancestry back to a point where there is no ad- mixture of African blood. There are also large numbers of Chinese, Japan- ese and East Indians among the popu- lation, the Chinese controlling the greater part of the retail trade. The intermarriage of the whites, and Ne- kroes, Chinese, Japanese and Hast Indians has produced a crop of beau- titul children, really a new race to which the various races have con- tributed their best mental and physi- cal points, JIMCROWISM FOR BOSTON. ‘The attempt of some lickspittle leaders to foist this disgraceful con. dition upon the city in which William Lloyd Garrison battled for the free dom of the slave shows that the col ored people who sponsor such, an in stitution are unfit for freedom an¢ jare unworthy of. the: respect of decent people.

To admit that one has no right in them’ {s to admit that one’ is not human, z In the United States, segregation usually begins in the church or in some, so-called church institution, and then follows the loss of civil -rights and civil degradation. The Caucasian Christian church is a parody on Chris- tlanity and has done the colored peo- ple incalculable harm. =: The most valuable thing in the world is manhood. There 1s nothing that will take its place. It is a jewel beyond price. Remember the words of lla Wheeler Wilcox: // “To sin by silence when we should ‘protest makes cowards out of men. ‘The human race has climbed on pro teat.” Had’ no voice been raised against {injusticg Ignorance and lust, the inguisttion yet, would serve “the laW, and gulllotines decide our least disputes. “The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the ‘Wrongs of the many.” The American. Federation of Labor has just erased the color‘iine, but hypocritical American Christianity takes advantage of the colored man's deep religious feelings and_ strength: ‘ens the infamous ‘caste system in an effort to deprive the race of its civil rights, for that is what segregation of any kind leads to. —— | “THE TRAGEDY OF THE HALF LOAF.” THE APPEAL heartily endorses every word of the following editorial from our enterprising and uncompro- mising contemporary, ‘The ~Chicago Whip. What a pity that there are 80 few “Whips” among the papers edited by colored nien: : ‘The strongest races of men; and the most indomitable characters of history have always either uncompromisingly demanded every scintilla of their just rights, or, being dented the full meas- ure of attainment of their ideals have spurned even lite itself. Patrick Henry in crying out for “either liberty or death,” -volced the ‘sentiment of the Pilgrim Fathers, who preferred the unknown horrors of the Sreat uncharted Western’ ocean and the savageridden land beyond to. re- Ugiqus oppression in a comfortable home, But the American colored man is apparently satisfled with the HALF LOAF. For 250 years he was so told that he was entitled to NOTHING— that he even enjoyed life itself by sut- france, His mind was so deliberately dwarfed and stunted that he could not even think to the contrary. So well was this psychology in- grained into him, that even today, race leaders of the old school, finding it {m- possible to break from this log. cabin Philosophy, “handed it down to free men.” He was so thoroughly robbed of his mentality, that he complacently helped manufacture the shot and shell which ehabled his masters to keep him in slavery. When Liberty and Citizen: ship were granted him, his childish mind could not grasp thelr signif. jeance. He took what was given him with @ thankful heart, thanks to the teachings of the old school. ‘He has not yet demanded unequiy. cally all that is due him! He fears to refuse acceptance of the Half Loat and demand the WHOLE, trembling lest he be denied any at all. With apologetic mon’ and smirking smile, he renders ‘gratitude for Jim. Crow Settlement Houses, Jim Crow Soldiers and Sailors’ Clubs, Jim Crow ¥. M. C. As, Jim Crow Officers’ Training Camps, Jim Crow churches, frater- nities and politics. He thus plays the begger’s role in spite of the fact that he has proven himself to be an indissoluble and indivisible entity of the whole warp and woot of America, economic, politi- cal, mitary and social. He is the ‘economic backbone of the South. He holds the balance of political power as he is beginning to learn. He has always been the fangs of the American army. His blood, suspected and un- suspected, flows in more voins than ‘any other one strain in America, ‘He is still a-slave it he accepts any: thing short of the full unstinted meas- ure of recognition and respect. The New. Colored American will never again be satisfied with EQUAL RIGHTS when they are not the SAME RIGHTS. The NEW Colored Ameri- can, repudiating the teachings of the old school, who ted him into the quag- mire of peonage and serfdom MUST and WILL spurn the “Half Loat and lay hold onto the WHOLE LOAF, “so z him God!” Carrying the:Color Line. Ciienk tha 30k reste bes There is 4 tendency among the mem- bers of the race to be over éensitive on the subject of color. This tendency is of course excusable to a certain ex- tent, because of the fact that the mat- ter of color is so frequently thrust upon them. But it would be the part of wisdom and good policy to forget the fact of color when possible and to regard themselves merely as Ameri- cans and good citizens, Such an attitude maintained with modesty and dignity would of time disarm the outcropping of prejudice based solely upon color, and would in- ‘sure the individual the same treat- ment accorded people of other. races. Carrving the color line as a chip on the shoulder is a sure. way of provok- ing resentment on the part of the other fellow, while a calm and un- concerned demeanor, with proper in- sistence on the same sort of treatment and accommodations furnished the public in general is more likely to win socontanee and secure proper recogni- ion, Colored people should endeavor to forget their color in public places and regard themselves solely as an in- tegral part of the body politic, with the same rights and privileges and the same duties and responsibilities: as aity other class of citizens. New York is @ good place to practice such a pol- icy a8 a cosmopolitan city where every person is so intent on hig own pursuits, that so long as the other man or woman does not tread on his toes, he or she can go his own gait unmolested. The public places and conveyances are open to all, with the provision that, each person’s rights end where his neighbor's begin. So there is no no- cessity to flaunt the color line in mee neighbor's face, so long as he ig in- different to your color and only asks that you do not infringe on his rights. Colored Men Nominated.

WILLIAMS, Manager. REV, T. J. CARR, Sec. and Treas The Johnson and Williams Reception. If these is one thing more than any other that Messa, John J. Johnson and W. A. Williams, 548 Wabasha street, enjoy, it is entertaining their friends. In fact, it is a regular hobby with them. Time and time again they have played the part of hosts for social and gastronomic functions of more or less magnitude. These gentlemen appear to be somewhat partial to entertaining ministers of the gospel, and, just let a prominent member of the cloth visit St. Paul, and an entertainment in his honor is almost sure to follow. Their last effort along that line was a reception in honor of Bishop L. J. Coppin, of this Episcopal district, and Rev. H. P. Jones, pastor of Euclid Avenue A. M. E. Church, Pittsburgh, Pa. Formerly pastor of St. James A. A. this city. Many persons were invited, and appended, the spacious parlors were filled, both some, seasonable viands were served, after which Mr. B. L. Waite, on behalf of the hosts, made one of his characteristic addresses. He was followed by Mr. Johnson in some timely remarks. Rev. G. W. Camp, of Zion Presbyterian Church, spoke, as also did Rev. T. J. Carr, of Memorial Baptist Church. Mr. J. Q. Adams made a few brief remarks. Mrs. Jerena White also spoke for a few moments, and introduced Prof. W. B. Lewis, principal Attucks School, Carbonbale, Ill., who gave an interesting talk. Rev. H. P. Jones, in his usual eloquent manner, paid a tribute to the hosts. As a finale, Bishop Coppin made some pertinent remarks that were graciously received and the very pleasant occasion was brought to a close. gratulations were extended and refreshments were served. The young couple will make their home in Minneapolis. Mrs. F. L. Brown, 408 Cathedral Place, was hostess last Saturday morning to thirty-six ladies, entertaining at cards for Mesdames Geneva Ayers, Chicago, and Emory Shaughter, Topeka.

Alexander in honor of their daughter, Miss Muriel, at Union Hall, last Thursday night. The hall was crowded by the elite of the Twin Cities, superbly dressed and in the best of spirits. A musical program of three numbers was rendered during the evening and fourteen numbers danced. Elegant refreshments were elegantly served. Mrs. Alexander was assisted by fourteen ladies in receiving her guests. The debutante was the recipient of a number of beautiful presents, including many flowers, none, however, being fairer than herself. The affair was perfectly delightful in every way.
