HOUSEWIVES' HEADQUARTERS THE EMPORIUM QUALITY CANDIES - SAINT PAUL ALL NECESSITIES FOR THE HOME VOL. 38 NO. 11 VAST DIRIGIBLE LINE IS PLANNED Corporation Is Formed for the Promotion of Commercial Flying in United States. BIG MEN BEHIND PROJECT First Line to Be Operated Will Be From New York to Chicago—Airships to Be of Modified Zeppelin Type—Use Helium Gas. Washington.—The formation of a gigantic corporation for commercial navigation of the air in this country, through the establishment of regular lines over which will be operated huge dirigible airships of the modified Zeppelin type, was announced by the United States chamber of commerce. The corporation will be known as General Air Service, its incorporators and the company include some of the best-known men and one country. Definite plans for the construction of huge dirigibles in Germany have been formed, the whole dirigible situation has been studied from an advanced scientific point of view and, it is announced, the corporation expects to be able to place two large ships in operation in this country in the summer of 1923. Benedict Crowell is one of the group of financial men and engineers behind the project, and he will be president of the new corporation, which was incorporated on February 1, 1922, of Maryland on Feb. 1, 1922, was formerly assistant secretary of war, was head of the American aviation mission to Europe, and is president of the Aero Club of America. Field Thoroughly Investigated. Before going ahead with the incorporation of the General Air Service, which will be the manufacturing and operating company, the men interested in the project formed what was known as the American Investigation corporation, for the purpose of investigating the practicability of the establishment of commercial air service with large rigid airships in this and neighboring countries. In their investigations the representatives of the corporation had the co-operation and assistance of Dr. John Schuette of the Schuette-Lanz Airship company of Germany, and his corps of engineers, also various engineers and associates of other airship authorities of Europe. Dr. Schuette had been in America in the spring of 1920, as had officials of the Zeppelin company, and the information gained from them was of material service in the first formal step—the organization of the American Investigation corporation. The first line the company hopes to put into operation will be from New York to Chicago, to be extended to Pacific const cities as soon as additional ships can be built. The New York-Chicago line will be opened, it is announced, by two ships, each of which would carry 4,000,000 cubic feet capacity, thereby to be fabricated in Germany and executed in the United States. They are designed to provide accommodations for 100 passengers and 30 toes of small and express matter. It is announced to the plan to build larger ships for lines to South America and Europe when the facilities for complete construction have been gathered. Dr. Schuette is identified with the new company. It is declared to be the plan to build the later ships in this country, and virtually to transfer a large part of the Zeppelin-making business to the United States. Plan to Use Helium. It is not planned to use hydrogen gas, but hellum, in these gigantic new dirigibles which, it is asserted, will embrace the latest modifications of both the Zeppelin and Schuette patients, both of which were combined in the last of the German dirigibles built during the war. It is also asserted that gasoline, another source of fire and explosion, will not be used, and that that motive power will be furnished by oil fuel. The air transport in the United States," says the announcement, "is in the dolrums, and apparently will remain so until it is given legal and economic status by federal or at least by unified state action. Properly developed, with present transportation systems, this new agency can become a most valuable addition to the nation's specialized carrier capacity in peace as well as in war. "At present nation-wide regulative legislation is greatly needed, not only for the ordinary needs of public safety, but also to establish the legal status and responsibilities of air transport in national and international business. Canada, Australia and European nations already have provided such legislation. Without practical encouragement commercial aeronautics will continue to help foreign development to such an extent as to constitute a menace to future security and to delay fatally the essential commercial development in which America should right stand first." The report recommends immediate support of basic national legislation on aeronautics providing for appropriate regulatory procedure, adequate facilities in the department of commerce for promoting the regulation and development of commercial air transport operations in interstate and foreign commerce, intrastate legislation, an encouragement of widespread public support of this essential aeronautical legislation. In its announcement of the General Air Service company's plans, the chamber of commerce of the United States gives this statement in its official organ from Benedict Crowell: "Our aim is to provide rigid airship service to America first, and, as time goes on, link this continent with the rest of the world by aerial routes; a service supplementing existing methods of transportation, one which will traverse space in a minimum of time and supply a means of travel both safe and comfortable. The transportation is just as necessary to present-day civilization as the railroads were to civilization fifty years ago. In no country in the world is this new method of transportation more necessary than in the United States because of its great expanse of territory and its numerous urban centers of large size. The United States can and should lead the world in the rigid airship field." Got Information in Europe. Mr. Crowwell was one of a group that spent much of the spring and summer of 1921 in Europe. They went to airship factories and stations in Germany, France, England and Italy. They made flights in British, ex-German and Italian airships, and secured data covering manufacturing and operating costs not only of airships but of hangars, mooring masts, landing fields and terminal facilities. They secured information and guarding flights over routes in the countries named, passenger accommodations, freight and express handling, fuel and supply statistics, replacement costs, insurance rates and the laws governing air navigation in Europe. "At the same time," the statement from Mr. Crowell explains, "we were carrying on investigations here in the United States. We looked into the helium question, its cost and probable supply; sources of operating revenue, passenger, freight, express and mail; the most feasible routes over which to start our new service to supplement existing traffic facilities; meteorological data and the effect that our climate will have on a yearly operation schedule; and the thousand and one things which develop into real problems to be addressed in any undertaking of such wide application." It was in these investigations that the representatives of the American Investigation corporation had the cooperation and capable assistance of Dr. Schuette. "We uncovered enough evidence early on our trip to Europe," continued Mr. Crowell's statement, "taken with that previously found, to convince us all that the time had arrived for action; that certain conditions abroad, if taken advantage of, would place the United States in the lead in the airship industry, perhaps for all time. Political conditions, reduced rates of fuel, the need for non-employment of airship talent, all these were factors in giving airships a setback in Europe. These factors are to our advantage." On the return of these investigators from Europe plans were formulated for the organization of the General Air Service company, which starts business with the accumulated data acquired by the American Investigation corporation. The latter corporation has acquired various rights for the construction of German rights throughout the world, secured options on certain aircraft, and acquired including mooring masts, hangars, terminal apparatus and plans and specifications for rigid airships of various capacities for long-distance routes. Dog Brought Back Purs Dog Brought *Sack Purse*. Marie Brought *Sack Purse*. Mary Brought *Sack Purse*. daughter of W. E. White, formerly street commissioner, lost a pocketbook on the road between the White home and the Roseburg pike. White's dog, which was playing along the road, found the pocketbook and carried it to a nearby cornfield. The family started a search for the purse, which contained a sum of money and valuable papers. Evidently the dog apprehended the family anxiety, for he went to a cornfield, got the pocketbook and placed it at the feet of its owner. Needless to say he received a liberal reward in a large piece of the best meat. **Bull Charges Man Carrying Red Light.** Terrie Haute, Ind—When a car running between Indianapolis and Terre Haute, Ind, struck a herd of cattle on the road, Walsh Alaugh, modern man, took a red lantern and got his car to flag another car. He was charged by a huge white bull. Alaugh got back on the car safely and continued on his trip, leaving the bull in full possession of the tracks. Court Says Ouija Board Must Pay Amusement Tax Richmond, Va. — The Ouija board is a game, subject to government revenue tax, the United States Circuit Court of Appeals held in an opinion written by Judge Charles A. Wood, affirming the judgment of the district court at Baltimore in the case of Joshua W. Miles, collector of internal revenue, against the Baltimore Talking Board company, Inc. Judge Waddill concurred. Appelate Judge Martin A. Knapp, presented a dissenting opinion, in which he stated that he was not convinced the Ouija board is a game within the meaning of the revenue act or otherwise. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1922 DISTANCES OF STARS MEASURED DISTANCES OF STARS MEASURED New Method Being Employed by Astronomers at Harvard College Observatory. BASED ON STUDY OF SPECTRUM Vast Collection of Photographs Now Being Used and Exact Figures No Longer Depend on Old System. Cambridge, Mass.-The distance from the earth of hundreds of stars are now being measured for the first time at Harvard College Observatory by recently developed methods based upon a study of the spectrum. It has been found that the huge collection of photographs of star spectra, assembled at Harvard during the past generation and numbering over 300,000 plates, can be put to a new use in determining the distance of stars, and the work of measurement is going ahead rapidly. Many of the vast number of stars whose distances are still unknown are the bright, comparatively nearby southern stars, because nearly all the observatories where stellar distances are measured are located in the northern hemisphere. The Harvard astronomers are therefore concentrating much of their attention upon photographs of southern stars at the Harvard station at Arquela, Pern. New Method. The new methods of measuring the distance of a star by a study of its spectrum are based upon discoveries by a number of astronomers. A remarkable contribution to the subject has been made by Dr. Megh Nad Saha, an East Indian, who is assistant professor of physics in the University of Calcutta. Recently the only available method for measuring star distances has been the parallax method, which consists of triangulation, using the diameter of the earth's orbit as a base line. In other words, observations of a star are made at intervals of six months. During this period of six months the observer is carried by the motion of the earth to a point some 186 million miles from that of his first observation, and using this distance as a base line he can work out the distances of the nearer stars. The stars, however, are so vastly remote that the earth that even with a base line of 186 million miles their distances cannot be triangulated. it that is for these more distant stars that the new methods are used. At the Mount Wilson observatory, W. S. Adams and his associates have succeeded in developing a procedure depending on the lines in the spectra of stars as photographed with large telescopes fitted out with powerful spectroscopes. The lines are due to the absorption of light from the star's surface by the clouds of iron, nickel, calcium and other elements that form its atmosphere. Dr. Bertil Lindblad has provided another method, based upon the examination of the so-called "cyanogen" bands in the spectra. These new methods have been carefully checked by the older ones. The Next Problem. Now that methods of measuring star distances from a study of spectra have been worked out, standardized and checked, the next problem is to apply these methods to those thousands of stars whose distances are still unknown. One of the fundamental tasks of astronomy is to determine how the stars are distributed through space, and this can never be known until the distances are measured. It is this task of applying the new methods for which the Harvard collection of photographs of stellar spectra has been found to furnish excellent material. With a single image, photographs and Cambridge thirty-five years ago give the distance of Alpha Ursee Majoris, one of the "pointers" in the big dipper, as about seventy-two light years. In other words the light now coming in from that star began its journey about 1850, and the light photographed on the Harvard plates in 1887 started in 1815. Cuts Letter From Alphabet, Sofa.-Determination by the government to eliminate a single letter in the Bulgarian alphabet was responsible for student ricks here. Wine Cellar Walled Up Three Decades Ago Found Boston.—A wine cellar, including Marylandry and Kentucky bourbon and other good liquor, has been "unwalled" by laborers raising the old Studio building, Tremont and Broomfield streets, famed as the city's "inner temple of the fine arts," that the carefully stored liquor was the property of George Snell, a noted architect and clubman of the city, who died three decades ago, failing to mention on his deathbed his precaution against drought. The cellar was walled up in the foundations. ZOO'S YOUNGEST BABY This is a ten-weeks-old leopard, born in the Lincoln park, zoo in Chicago. He is shown in the arms of Keeper Parker. BRONX HEALTHY FOR BABIES Most Congested District of New York Has Fewest Death—Chicago Rate 89.68. New York.—The Bronx, reputed to be one of the country's most congested communities, has the lowest baby death rate in the United States, according to figures made public recently by the Babies' Welfare federation. Buffalo and Pittsburgh are tied for the highest rate of all, 83.6 a thousand births. The report—shows that of 15,397 babies born in the Bronx last year, only 972 died before a year old, a percentage of 83.1 for each thousand births. In Greater New York the death rate was 77.1. Los Angeles has the lowest rate, 66.13. Although Chicago and St. Louis were not included in the official figures, an unofficial report, shows Chicago to have had infant mortality rate of 89.68 and St. Louis 61.7. HOUR GLASS HINT TO SHUT UP French Deputies Have New Plan to Silence Tiresome Talkers in the Chamber. Paris. — Tiresome talkers, "windbags" among the French deputies (and they are as common in the chamber as in other parliaments) may soon be awed into conciseness and compactness by the presence at their side of a great half-hour sand glass. Their fate depends on whether the chamber backs the recommendation of the rules committee, which has decided in face of limiting speeches to 80 minutes, save in the case of the author of a bill or an interpolator. With visible evidence at hand that he is frittering away time, the most confirmed babble may be checked. Unfortunately, it is by no means certain that the chamber will adopt the committee's drastic report. SAYS PASTOR TRICKED HER Bride of Three Days Says She Was Beguiled Into Marriage to Connecticut Minister. Newark, N. J.—A bride of three days, Julia Mahanna Yonan, twenty-one, caused the arrest of Rev. M. Simon Yonan, fifty-seven, a Nestorian priest, who said his pastorate was in New Britain, Conn., charging that he first tricked her into marriage and then threatened to kill her because she refused to live with him. She visited the Palestine a year ago. She told the police that Yonan visited at her parents' home here, and, with stories of great wealth and a large congregation in New Britain, had induced her to enter his household "to take charge of the servants." She signed a "contract" at the city clerk's office, she said, but didn't know that it was a marriage license. KEEP STRICT PASSPORT LAWS Central European States Are Not Willing to Improve Travel Conditions. Graz, Austria—Central European states are not ready to sacrifice their passport requirements in the interest of better business and travel conditions. The passport conference of the succession states (of Austria-Hungary) showed only partial success. Austria, Hungary and Czechoslovakia were the only governments that agreed to issue two year passports and to give them good for a year. Poland objected to all efforts to simplify the intricacies that are the despair of Americans. Rumania and Jugo-Slavia agreed to the proposed reforms with certain reservations. Quadruplets Born. Sharpstown, Del.—Quadruplets were born to Mrs. Rodney Anderson, wife of a farmer near here, the other day. Two of the children are boys and two girls and all are in normal health. Anderson is now the father of four boys and two girls, his wife having given birth to twins two years ago. Mrs. Anderson is one of twins, her mother having had two pairs of twins. Carlob Return to N. B. Fredericton, N. B—After an absence of seven years, her return to New Brunswick. The animals disappeared in 1915, because of a security of their fodder and went north to the bleak Gaspé peninsula of Quebec. TO BUILD CANAL FOR HOLY LAND Zionist Organization Resurrects Plan Brought Out by Duke of Sutherland. DIVIDED INTO TWO SECTIONS Proposed Cut Would Open Trade Route by Way of Sea of Gillee and Jordan Valley—Would Increase Humidity. Jerusalem. — The Zionist organization has resurrected the old plan of constructing a 250-mile canal through Palestine as a supplement to the Suez canal. This project was first brought out twenty-five years ago by the late duke of Sutherland, but was buried unceremoniously by Sultan Abdul Hamid because of his opposition to progress. Traffic through the Suez canal has become so congested these days that it is claimed an alternate canal route is required. Zionist leaders have become convinced that the ever-expanding trade relations between continental Europe and the Fur East have reached such dimensions that a canal in Palestine would fill an urgent need and reap untold commercial benefits for Palestine. Canal in Two Sections. As planned by F. A. Maler of Holland, its ardent supporter, the canal would be divided into two sections, one of which would extend from Halfa, on the Mediterranean, to Auleh, on the Lake of Tiberias, or Sea of Gillee. Then there would be an intervening part to be formed from the Lake of Tiberias toward the Dead Sea. This would be filled with Mediterranean sea water. Having crossed the Dead Sea the canal would begin again at Arabah, at the foot of the sea, and extend to Akabah, giving access to the Red sea. While the building of such a canal would necessitate the submergence of a considerable tract of fertile land as well as a few towns and villages (along the Jordan), its champions claim that the advantages would far outbalance the loss. Would Increase Humidity. It is claimed that the proposed Jordan lake would increase the humidity of all Palestine, which now suffers from excessive heat and dryness, thus improving the climate as well as the vegetation. Also, it is asserted, the Jordan valley and the desert lying to the east with the prairies south of Houran, owing to the increased area of water, would become great centers for colonization and development. With these climatic benefits must be reckoned with. Horticultural possibilities in the scheme might become a second Port Said, a commercial place to ships of all nations. Raw materials from Europe and America, so much needed for the building up of industrial enterprises in Palestine, and which now are being held back due to scarcity of calling ships, would begin to flow more freely. Thus, it is claimed, there would be opened up to the residents of Palestine the great industrial opportunities. KING'S CHAIR CN WHISKY BOX Feisul of Irak Horgeous installation—Denouement Startles the Multitude. London.—At the installation of King Feisul of Irak nothing was left undone to produce the atmosphere necessary for such an occasion in the country of the Calphs of Bagdad. The throne—or rather the chair of state—is a masterpiece in scarlet rep, tinsel and gilt. After the ceremony, which it will be remembered, was an open air affair, the ritual required that the throne should be removed. A stalwart Ethiopian raised it above his head and bore it away past the assembled multitude. Then, and then only, was the nakedness of the land apparent. The frame beneath the seat was simple-deal, and across the boarding was the legend in stencil of a firm that exports Scotch whisky. "DEAD" EAGLE KILLS SOLDIER Bird's Claws Clutch Trigger of Gun in Struggle, Fighty Shooting Owner. Santiago, Chile. A story of a soldier's fatal struggle with a huge eagle in a mountain pass near Los Andes is told by the newspapers here. The soldier shot the eagle and, thinking he had killed it, approached, but the bird had only suffered broken wing and furiously attacked him. In the struggle which followed the eagle's claws clutched the trigger of the soldier's gun, which was discharged, the bullet entering the man's body. He died in the arms of his companions, who took his body, and also the wounded eagle, to Los Andes. Bride Wants to Grow Pies. Legrange, O. — Ultra! Help! A young bride from Cleveland inquired about pie plants while visiting her aunt here. "We like pies. I'd like to see what kind of pies grow. If we take them, we want some of the pie plants in the kitchen, the bride from the nation's "fifth city" told her aunt. HOUSEWIVES' HEADQUARTERS THE EMPORIUM QUALITY CANDIES - SAINT PAUL ALL NECESSITIES FOR THE HOME FROGS AND SNAILS ON MENU London Hotel Explains That Ameri- cans Have Acquired Taste for Them. London.-Frogs and snails have just been put on the bill of fare at the Savoy hotel. This news is accompanied by the explanation that English in France have acquired a taste for them and want to be able to get them here. Those who have tried snails report that the snail part is tough, and the trimmings taste too much of garlic. Perhaps the Savoy snails will be tender and the garlic kept in check a little. At any rate it is related that Sir Hall Caine has gone in for the new items on the bill of fare at the Savoy. The important commercial fact is that frogs and 200 snails are now being brought from Paris to London each day. It seems a shame to hurry snails that way, but the daily order is going to be doubled. "SHIRT-TAIL" CHARLEY INTERNATIONAL Here is "Shirt-Tail" Charley, one of the few remaining Seminole Indians now in Florida. Some years ago Charley committed a crime for which his chief condemned him for the rest of his life to wear nothing more than a plain shirt. Many times he has been tempted to don the gorgeously colored garments so typical of the Seminole, but the realization that his life would be the forfeit for the discarding of his "cloak of crime" deterred him. TRAPS BEARS AND CRATES 'EM State Nimrod Not Content With Slaying Animals for Hides in Pennsylvania. Warren, Pa.—Most of the Warren county hunters who go to the big woods after the bear, are satisfied in his home for the animals that dragging him home for their neighbors to see. But Chauney Logue, the state trapper, who has been working in this locality, has a better solution to the bear-getting problem. Logue, who has been in the trapping game for many years, places his traps and when the bear is caught places a collar around its neck, and armed with a heavy club, leads Mr. Bear to the nearest shipping point. Short time ago, after capturing an extra bear and bringing it in, he was asked by moving-picture men if he would take it out of the crate so as to enable them to take pictures. He complied and the pictures taken are now on exhibition in Pittsburgh. HATES SCHOOL KILLS SELF "I Want to See Mother," Note Left for His Father and Stepmother by Detroit Boy Says. Detroit, Mich.—Resenting and brooding over his father's peremptory order that he must continue to attend school, Arthur Coleman, fourteen years old, shot and killed himself in his home here. A bitter quarrel is said to have resulted from the father's order. In a note the boy left he bade his father and stepmother fargwell and added: "I want to see mother." Young Coleman joined in family prayers before retiring at night, and, according to his father, tossed about in bed until 4 o'clock in the morning. Then arose, obtained a rifle, lay back and shot himself through the abdomen. Coleman was a pupil in Case Tech High school and was noted among his fellow-pupils for his boxing ability. Bill Askes Redeemed. Goshen, Ind.—Several days ago Roy Kinny, employed in a Goshen garage, received his week's currency in an envelope. He took it home, left it on a table, where his children found it and threw it into a stove. The ashes were taken to the City National bank here and forwarded to the Treasury department in Washington, where they were subjected to a chemical analysis. As a result Kinny received $40 from the United States government the other day. $2.40 PER YEAR RACE ANTEDATES CLIFF DWELLERS Harvard University Explorers Make Interesting Discovery in Northeastern Arizona. RELICS ARE WELL PRESERVED Ancient People Were Intermediate in Development Between Basket Makers and the Pueblo Cliff Dwellers. Cambridge, Mass. — Explorations made by the Peabody museum of Harvard in the Marsh pass region of northeastern Arizona have resulted in the discovery of the remains of an ancient people who once inhabited that section and were intermediate in development between the basket makers, the earliest race known to have lived in that region, and the Pueblo cliff dwellers, whose remarkable stone villages along the Arizona cliffs have attracted wide-spread interest. The Harvard expeditions to this semi-desert region, over 100 miles from the nearest railroad, were begun in 1914 by A. V. Kilder and Samuel J. Guernsey of the Peabody museum staff, and were later continued under the sole direction of Mr. Guernsey. Prior to 1914, commercial collectors had found traces of the basket makers, but facts about these earliest people of the region had never been secured by trained archaeologists until the Harvard expeditions began. These expeditions have not only contributed a mass of information concerning the basket makers but now show the existence of a people who followed the basket makers in point of time, but preceded the cliff dwellers. The post-basket makers, as these newly discovered people are called, resemble the basket makers in many particulars, but were clearly in a later stage of development. The basket makers had no permanent dwellings, whereas these later people had stone houses in caves and in the open. They also had pottery, crude in some respects, but with the beginnings of decoration, and some of it was fired. This is the earliest pottery known to have been made in the southwest. Instead of building their dwellings, as did the basket makers, they seem to have lived in the caves and to have conducted their burials in the open. Their more settled life is attributed to their success in agriculture. They grew corn of a primitive variety. Skulls Long Instead of Round Skeletons show that both the basket makers and these successors had rather long skulls, whereas the cliff dwellers who followed them were a round-headed race and always had the back of the skull artificially flattened by the hard board headrest of the crables in which the babies were placed. The relationship of these various peoples is still a matter of doubt. It is believed the post-basket makers probably were descendants of the basket makers, but whether they in turn were descendants of the cliff dwellers is not certain. It seems that a count of the marked difference in the shape of the head, even aside from artificial flattening. The basket makers had dogs. The mummified remains of two were found during the Harvard explorations and are now on exhibition at the Peabody museum along with a quantity of other objects illustrative of basket maker life. Many of the objects found in the dry caves in this region are in an extraordinary state of preservation, on account of the dryness of the climate, despite their great age. These preserved years ago these primitive people lived in northeastern Arizona is unknown, or how they were related to the Indians of the present day. The scientific study of the region is still in its early stages. Italians Scoop Up Earth From Roosevelt's Grave Oyster Bay, L, L—Four Italianans got off the 2020 train at Oyster Bay one afternoon, inquired the way to Young's cemetery and plodded the mile and a half up the hill to the grave of Colonel Roosevelt. They crossed themselves, knelt in praver a moment, crossed them, a again and placed flowers on the grave. Then they astounded the attendant by scraping away the snow from a snow cover the rolling and gouging out frozen earth with thief-fingers, stuffing it into their overcoat pockets. "What's the idea?" demanded the attendant, strolling over to them. "This week," the spokesman of the quartette explained, "we go back to Italy. We loved Colonel Roosevelt. Colonel Roosevelt loved Italy. All Italianes love him. We take back with us this earth from his grave and all our families will be glad to get a little of it." The attendant said no more. It was learned that the four pilgrims came from Chicago, where they had lived for 20 years. THE APPEAL AN AMERICAN NEWSPAPER ISSUED WEEKLY J. Q. ADAMS, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER ST.

WILLIAM MONROE TROTTER On April 7, William Monroe Trotter, editor of the Boston Guardian and world-famous agitator for the rights of the colored people, will be 50 years old. He has done more to fight jim-crowism and to inspire in the colored people a determination to battle for their rights than any living man of the race. He has impoverished himself, having spent the fortune left him by his fathers, in financing his work for freedom and justice for the colored people. In the presence of this giant of agitation, nine-tenths of the alleged colored leaders appear as pigmies. He has always stood for absolute equality of citizenship. The majority of the "leaders" have compromised in one way or another. He deserves a FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLAR FUND. His work can not be estimated in dollars and cents. Even a small fund will show that his work has been appreciated and that the colored people are willing to pay for freedom. The editor of every paper circulating amnog the colored people ought to boost Trotter in his editorial columns and also contribute to the fifty-year fund. THE APPEAL has already sent a check for Five Dollars. Reader: Do not fail to send at once your contribution to the Guardian Staff, The Guardian, 34 Cornhill, Boston, Mass. CLOSE THE DOORS When the Senate concurs—as it should do—in the bill which has just passed the House, the restricted immigration law will be extended one year from June 30 next. It is the intention of the House Immigration committee to draft a permanent enactment, but the subject is so intricate that it cannot be disposed of hurriedly. The extra year will be none too long.

The situation was becoming serious. Hostilities broke up the traffic, but after the armistice a perfect flood of emigrants was headed this way. Restriction was a positive necessity. The 3 per cent proposition was adopted as a temporary measure. The basis for calculation was the number of nationals of a given country resident in the United States according to the 1910 census. The idea was to receive an additional 3 per cent of the respective totals annually This arrangement met many difficulties at the start. Ellis Island was crowded with aliens who had overrun the quota. These troubles have been largely overcome. During the eight months of operation under the law immigrants have numbered 192,000. The limit for twelve months is 355,000, and it is not likely to be reached. So much the better. The United States needs a long rest from its efforts to assimilate newcomers, and no matter what form permanent legislation may take, we agree with Chairman Johnson, of the immigration committee, that there will be no desire to return to the virtually unlimited entrance of foreign labor. This melting-pot business is all right as a theory, but the country has got to look out for itself and its doors must be closed to strange men with tsrange and violent doctrines. So says the Philadelphia Inquirer and so say we all. THE DRED SCOTT DECISION. It was fifty years ago—March 6, 1857—that the Supreme Court of the United States rendered its decision in the famous Dred Scott case. The results which followed this decision were stupendous and far-reaching. Dred Scott was a slave belonging to a surgeon in the United States army. He was taken by his master to Fort Snelling, in the State of Illinois, territory from which, by the ordinance of 1787, slavery had been forever excluded. Afterward he was carried into Missouri, where he was hired as a slave. Claiming freedom on the ground that his residence in Illinois had wiped out his status as a slave, his case was taken before the Supreme Court for settlement. After a three years' consideration of the case the decision of the court was pronounced in an exhaustive opinion delivered by Chief Justice Taney, seven of the nine judges concurring. In substance, the decision was as follows: (1) That persons of the African race were not, and could not be, acknowledged as "part of the people," or citizens, under the Constitution of the United States. (2) That Congress had no right to exclude citizens of the South from taking their Negro servants, as any other property, into any part of the community, and that they were entitled to claim its protection therein. (3) That the Missouri Compromise of 1820, in so far as it prohibited African slavery north of a designated line, was unconstitutional and void. The decision raised a storm from one end of the country to the other and made the civil war a foregone conclusion. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE The "jimcrow negroes" who are continually repeating "the North is no better than the South" know they are lying when they utter.such rot.

Ninety per cent of the lynching occurs in the South, and ALL of the disfranchise-ment and jimcrow laws. A little instance which is illuminating. A colored man was arrested in Chicago last week charged with having assaulted a white woman with a club, breaking her skull. A doctor diagnosed his case as dementia praecox and he was committed to the psycopathic hospital for treatment. What would have happened in Georgia? Well this is what did happen in Georgia last summer even when no white woman was involved. A colored man shot a white man and in turn was shot by a white mob. He was taken to a hospital where he died shortly after. About midnight the white mob went to the hospital to get the wounded colored man and lynch him. Exasperated at finding that he was dead, the mob broke into the dead room, got the corpse, carried it to the outskirts of the city and burned it to a crisp. The charged remains were then returned to the hospital. This happened in the city of Augusta, Ga., in the year of Our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-one. GET BUSY WITH THE U. S. SENA TORS. The Dyer anti-lynching bill has been passed by the house of representatives and is now in the senate in the hands of the judiciary committee. If the judiciary committee reports the Dyer bill, its enactment by the senate is almost certain. The senators on that committee are: Knute Nelson, Minnesota; William P. Dillingham, Vermont; Frank B. Brandegee, Connecticut; William E. Borah, Idaho; Albert B. Cummins, Iowa; LeBaron B. Colt, Rhode Island; Thomas Sterling, South Dakota; Geo W. Norris, Nebraska; Richard P. Ernst, Kentucky; Samuel M. Shortridge, California; Charles A. Culbridge, Texas; Lee S. Overman, North Carolina; James A. Reed, Missouri; Henry F. Ashurst, Arizona; John K. Shields, Tennessee; Thomas J. Walsh, Montana. Now is the time to write or telegraph the members of the judiciary committee and ask them to support the bill. It is especially important that the people of Minnesota flood Senator Nelson with letters and telegraph asking him to vote for a favorable report on the bill. The outlook is favorable but work must be done to make assurance doubly sure CRINGING AWAKENS CONTEMPT We cannot win by blinking at facts or by ignoring fundamental principles. Editor J. Q. Adams of the ST. PAUL APPEAL is sound to the core and we shall all have to accept his kind of leadership if we expect to attain our full stature and status under the American Constitution. Cringing may be comfortable for the time being put it is mighty humilating for all the time thereafter and it awakens contempt for us as it should do in the minds and hearts of our adversaries. Editor Adams points the way, whether we accept his advice or not and sooner or later he will blaze the way to our financial, industrial and political enfranchisement in this country where none will dare molest us or make us afraid. Wise colored leaders will take notice and govern themselves accordingly. The foregoing from the Planet of Richmond, Va., edited by Hon. John an who in the conscii of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, ent, may condemn, of relatives may be hearts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the finances of relatives or Mitchell, Jr., who recently polled 20,000 votes as candidate for governor of the state, is pleasing to the editor but we accept it as a tribute to the cause for which THE APEALH has fought for nearly forty years rather than a personal compliment. RAPS AMERICAN CHRISTIANS (?) IN A recent interview a Japanese gentleman walloped the American Christian hypocrites in these words and hits the nail on the head: "I am a Christian, but I cannot reconcile the rules which Christianity taught me with American practices. Americans are overly suspicious and narrow hearted. Our nation is supposedly anti-Christian, but we have broader hearts. "American missionaries teach us that all people are equal, so we welcome Americans, let you travel throughout Japan unmolested, buy property, engage in business, and give you equal rights with our own people when you are in Japan. You do not practice in America what your missionaries teach us we must do, if we want to be Christians. Even the missionaries do not practice what they preach when they return to America." EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES. President Harding and Secretary Hughes "have been moved" by complaints from Americans in the near east and have, demanded equal opportunities for Americans in Persia and Mesopotamia. It seems that those who kick get at least some of the things they complain about. And the President would sit up and take notice if the colored people kicked hard enough and in unison. While the administration is quick to come to the aid of "Americans abroad," it does not hesitate to curse 'Americans at home.' Colored Americans have been jimcrowed in every way right here in America. The President's speeches in Alabama and Georgia were curses upon patriotic Americans and double curses because some, lick-sickle "leaders" attempted to condone them. WOMEN AS PREACHERS. The women are demanding their right to become preachers of the gospel on equal terms with the men. At a recent meeting of women pastors a speaker declared that the majority of the church members at present are women drawn by the eloquence and magnetism of the male preachers and if women were installed as pastors would fall over each other in the efforts to get into the fold. The Reverend Clarence Edward Macartney of Philadelphia, dissents from this view and says that the ordination of women as ministers of the gospel would be prejudicial to the best interests of the church and "would increase the occasions for factional scandal and satanic church quarrel." No doubt the men would be attracted to the church services if the shepherdess was young and charming, had a trim figure, wore a peek-a-boo waist, with a skirt falling to her knees, the portion of her anatomy from that point to the French-heeled oxfordes encased in "invisible" silk stockings. It would not matter what she said, the attendance of the men including all of the bald-headed "fathers in Israel" would swamp the meeting house—and they would all be in the front pews—if possible. ATLANTA THE LIMIT. Atlanta, Ga., seems to have been and is yet, the breeding place of nearly all the four things which feed on race prejudice and religious intolerance. A catalogue of these un-American things would take too much space, so it will suffice to mention the latest evolved from the K. K. K. controlled city. At the meeting of the city council Monday, by a vote of 14 to 8 a committee was appointed to prepare an ordinance prohibiting interracial worship of God. Under this proposed law white and colored people could not attend the same churches. A white person could not preach in a colored church. A white person could not preach in a colored Sunday school and even in the presence of death a white priest could not administer extreme unction to a colored human being. Atlanta wins in racial and religious hatred. "PEARL GOOD" A MISNOMER. That, "there is nothing in a name," has been decidedly verified in Portland, Ore. Pretty, blue-eyed Pearl Good, aged seventeen years, has confessed to having committed forty-six burglaries. Her plunder consists of money, jewelry, clothing, toilet articles, etc. She is one of a family of eight children, is average in dress, manner and speech, and is not at all "hard boiled" though evidently a bad egg. In nearly every one of her robberies entry was made by means of a latchkey, and the fair "lady Raffles" says the average housewife leaves her doorkey "hidden" in places most easily discovered by the housebreaker. This rare Pearl evidently saw some of the film pictures of that great artist, Pearl White, and emulated her example. Protest always pays. For some time the people of India have been making "silent protest" against the many injustices from which they suffer and now it seems that results are about to be achieved. The government has introduced several bills for the repeal of nearly all of the repressive and restrictive laws now on the statute books. And because they have protested, England will give independence to the Egyptians. Down South, Moton et al are lauding the brutal people who have stolen the rights of the colored people and restricted them to a jimcrow place in the social scheme. Representative Fordney of Michigan has introduced a bill in the house proposing a loan of $5,000,000 to Liberia. The Liberians seem to want the money and the president was in the U. S. last year making an appeal for it; but THE APPEAL believes it to be a dangerous matter. If the money is loaned, and not promptly paid it will be an excuse for the United States to go in and take possession, and thus get a foothold in Africa, and then Uncle Sam will proceed to mistreat and murder the Liberians just as he did in Haiti. The Liberians would do well to sidestep that loan. At a recent hearing of the house committee on merchant marine, Coxey of Coxey army fame, that $40,000,000 worth of idle vessels be turned over to him and his associates. One of the committee asked Coxey if he had had any experience in operating ships. "No, none," replied Mr. Coxey. "No more than Mr. A. D. Lasker." Lasker, the Jewish head of the Shipping Board, was appointed by the President, not because he had experience, but because he had aided Mr. Harding in his campaign for the presidency. The supreme court of North Carolina has just decided that schools are not necessities. Long ago the white people of the state decided that education was not necessary for the colored children, about thirty cents per capita, more or less for their instruction while the white children received about fifty times as much. North "Caliny" is a great old commonwealth, more or less. President Harding evidently has a keen sense of the ridiculous. He has recently appointed Brig. Gen. John H. Russell to investigate conditions in Haiti. It will be recalled that Russell, as Colonel Russell, was in command in Haiti when the outrages complained of were perpetrated. In other words, he will investigate what happened under his own regime. Twenty-six American marines who engaged in a fight with the city police in Managua, Nicarague on December 8, 1921, have been sentenced to the penitentiary for terms ranging from eight to twelve years. Now the atuborities ought to convene a court martial in Haiti and sentence the marines who masacred many thousands of Haitians. Thursday night the Illinois constitutional convention argued Delegate Edward H. Morris' addition to the bill of rights. It reads: "Laws shall be applicable to alike to all citizens without regard to race or color, and no citizen, by reason of his race or color, shall be prohibited from doing anything that any other citizen may do." That's the stuff. A campaign to have legislatures of all states pass a bill requiring regular courses in the study of the United States Constitution has been started in New York. Illinois, Iowa, Michigan and Vermont have such a law. What will Georgia, Mississippi and Texas, where they violate the Constitution every day, have to say about the matter? Prof. Kelly Miller of Howard university is like the proverbial cow who gives a pail of milk and then kicks it over. Miller wrote a strong article in reply to President Harding's southern speeches and then spoiled all by first lauding B. Washington and then writing in favor of jimcrow schools. Steady, Kelly! Sterling P. Strong, who has opened his campaign for United States senator from Texas, is telling the people "Come to Washington next winter and you will meet a senator who is a member of the Ku Klux Klan." It is quite likely that there are already several Ku Klux among the members of both houses. Governor-General Wood announces that he will follow the policy outlined in the report of the Wood-Forbes mission as the basis of administration in the Philippines. All of which translated means that the Filipinos will not get the freedom which the United States promise them. That "the way of the transgressor is hard," especially if he is colored, has been terribly verified in New York in the case of William Burke, an 18-year-old colored youth who was sentenced to ten years in Sing Sing prison for the larceny of fifty cents' worth of bread. The colored people in the French West Indies (Guadeloupe and Martinique) are bitterly opposed to the sale of their islands to the United States. They realize that with the coming of the Americans, hell would break loose in their own happy homes. A new M. E. college for "Negroes" was dedicated in Mississippi Friday. Thus the so-called Church of Christ encourages the drawing of the color line in education. A. 2035 A. CO. REV. GEORGE W. GAINES Former Pastor of St. James A. M. E.

COMMISSIONER TAGERT ON NEGRO EDUCATION Washington, D. C.-That the material and moral interests of the whole country are involved in the question of Negro education is the substance of an interview given out by Dr. John J. Tigert, United States Commissioner of Education, on his return from a recent conference in Nashville with the heads of the 28 State and Federal Land Grant College of New York at the South and Dr. Tigert is a native of Texas and has always lived in the South adds significance to his statement, which follows in full: “The neglect of Negro education has resulted in an immeasurable loss to the country. It has affected not only the material prosperity, especially of the South, where the Negro population is greatest, but has likewise affected the standard of living and the character of citizenship, and has injured the morale of our people. If we had long ago made provision for the technical education of our Negro population, the increase in the value of our products, both agricultural and manufacturing, would have been incalculably great. The intangible and immaterial benefits which would have accrued can scarcely be estimated, nor can we form any estimate of what would have been the effect upon the Negro himself by way of encouragement, arousing his ambition and increasing his value as a citizen.” ANTI-KLUX BODY FORMED Purpose is to End Mob Violence and Enforce Law. Healdton, Okla., March- An anti-Ku Klux Klan organization, known as the Knights of the Visible Empire has been formed here. John Q. Hyde, one of the organizers, announced in a statement today that the purpose of the Knights of the Visible Empire rule, as exemplified in the teachings of the Ku Klux Klan." Hyde is a local attorney. Hyde said the membership had jumped to 150 today and that 150 others were waiting to sign applications; the law required a negotiation to the law of the land and obeyed the laws be enforced by those empowered to enforce them. There will be no secrecy," he said. TRAIN BANDITS GET HAUL Colored Robbers Hold Up Diners on Chicago Limited. Chicago, March.—The Boston Limited, crack New York Central passenger train running from Boston to Chicago, was boarded by two Negro robbers in Tuesday night as it entered the interior. Entering the dining car with drawn pistols, they held up Adolph Pierson, the steward, and robbed him of $275 and his watch. The robber took less than three minutes and the two bandits leaped from the train before it had picked up speed after the stop, and escaped. Many Colored Men in the American War for Independence. The employment of colored men became a subject of much importance at an early stage of the American War, and the military establishment regularly regarded slavery as an element of weakness in the condition of the colonies, in which the slaves were numerous, and laid their plans to gain control of the land. They take up arms against their masters by promising them liberty on this condition. The situation was looked upon by the public men of the colonies as alarming, and several of them urged "HUMAN NATURE My ear is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is severe That falls asunder at the He finds his fellow gui Not colored like his o To enforce the wrong, Dooms and devotes him Thus man devotes his 'Tis human nature's b "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT."

But while the general question of emancipation was defeated, the exigencies of the contest were not so severe, and the practical one of employment for colored men whether bond or free. Only Freemen Wanted in Army In May, 1775, Hancock and Warren's committee of safety introduced the following formal resolution: "Resolved, That it is the opinion of this committee, as the contest now beween us and the liberties and privileges of the latter, which the colonies are determined to maintain, that the admission of any person as a soldier into the army now raising, but only such as are freemen, will be inconsistent with the laws of the army supported and reflect dishonor on the colonies, and that no slaves be admitted into this army upon any consideration whatever." Washington took command of the army around Boston on July 3, 1775. The officers from his headquarters at Cambridge prohibited the enlistment of "negro." It may also be noticed that they were forbidden to enlist "any person who is not an American citizen, such person has a wife and family and is a settled person in this country." Many Colored Men Enrolled. Notwithstanding all this, the fact remains, according to Bancroft, that "the roll of the army at Cambridge had, from its first formation, borne the names of men of color." Free men of color in the ranks by the side of white men, the beginner of the war they had entered the provincial army, and the colored men, like others, were retained in the service after the troops were adopted by the continental forces on conference, consisting of Dr. Franklin, Benjamin Harrison and Thomas Lynch, met at Cambridge, October 18, 1775, with the deputy governors of Connecticut and Rhode Island and the committee of the council of Massachusetts Bay, to advise a method for renovating the army. On the 22d of October the groes to be excluded from the new enlistment, especially such as are slaves?" All were thought improper by the council of officers. It was grossed that they be rejected altogether. In general orders, issued November 12, 1775, Washington says: "Neither negroes, boys unable to bear arms, nor old men unfit to endure the fatigues of the campaign are to be enlisted." Permitted Their Enlistment. Washington, however, in the last days of the year, under representations to him that the free colored men who had served in his army were very hardened in the act of being discarded, and fearing the indictment of their playment in the British army, took the responsibility to depart from the resolution respecting them and gave license for their being enlisted. Washington promised that if there were any Congress he would discontinue the ending of colored men, but, on January 16. 1775, Congress determined "that fully in the army at Cambridge may be re-enlisted therein, but no others." The entire aspect of the affair's effect on the army began to be invaded. South Carolina especially, was unable to make any effectual efforts with militia, by reason of the great proportion of citizens necessary to remain at home to present insurrections among the colored men, who were assiduous in their endeavors to excite both revolt and desertion. The result was that in all the Southern states the legislatures passed resolutions to enlist the colored men, and the colored patriots of the Revolution to enlist the colored brethren for the arder with which they fought the common enemy, whether they were bondmen or freemen. It has never been possible to give an exact statement as to the colorized men who served in the Revolution, but they were generally mixed in regiments and not calculated separately.

PAUL LIBRARY "The Negro in Literature and Art in the United States." By Benjamin Brawley. Revised edition. New York, Duffield & Co., 1921; 197 p. This new edition of the "Negro" in literature and art in the United States" is a very thorough treatment of the subject. Beside the chapers on Phillis Wheatley, Dunbar, Chesnut, De Bois, Braithwaite, Douglass, Washington, Tanner and others, it contains an account of the general progress from 1918 to 1921, and a very interesting chapter on the actor, Charles S. Gilpin. By his admirable acting in the part of the old Negro in drinkwater's "Abraham Lincoln, he made himself well known, and later practically created the character of the "Emperor Jones" in Eugene O'Neill's drama. "A Social History of the American Negro, Being a History of the Negro Problem in the United States, Including a History and Study, of the Republic of Liberia." By Benjamin Brawley New York, Macmillan Co. 1921 420 p. This book presents a study of the actual life of the Negro in itself and in connection with that of the nation. Beginning with the coming of the Negro to America and the colonial era, during which the Negro passed from a position of servitude to real slavery, the various phases of his social condition up to the Civil War are described. STERLING CLUB NOTES. The Sterling Club held a largely attended meeting Wednesday night at Union Hall. They furnished a fine supper. The object of the meeting was to get something tangible to work upon looking toward the club home. A number of men spoke pro and con and the result was the passage of a resolution to the effect that the members will each purchase bills of dollars, the money will be kept intact for the purchasing of the home. There was also a resolution passed that this money be held for one year from April 1st. Several enthusiasts purchased bonds or paid a certain sum upon their purchase. The building committee was authorized to investigate available property and report at the next meeting. On last Saturday evening the Progressive Association opened its doors to the public; they have the old site of Mr. R. N. Travis, 40 E. Third St., but they have transformed it.
