The Appeal

THE EMPORIUM QUALITY CANDIES - SAINT PAUL VOL. 38 NO. 18 RAISULI WANTS TO DIE IN PEACE Moorish Leader, Now Object of Spanish Attack, Once Drew United States Fire. SAYS HE'S TOO FAT TO FIGHT Seventeen Years Ago He Figured in Incident When Secretary Hay Demanded "Perdicaria Alive or Raisuli Dead." Washington—Raisuli, the Moorish bandit who has just again offered to surrender to the Spanish military forces which are pushing an active campaign against him in Morocco, is the man who once drew the United States into action in that vexed corner of the world. He figured in that celebrated incident when Secretary of State John Hay demanded "Perdicaria alive or Raisuli dead." That was 17 years ago, in 1904. Raisuli had captured Ion Perdicaria, a naturalized American citizen, and kept him prisoner. President Roosevelt sent a fleet of eight American war vessels stripped for action into the Tangier harbor while John Hay sent his famous message to the feeble sultan in nominal command there. Grows Too Fat to Fight. Raisul, who now says he is "too fat to fight," and long been a leader of the wild tribesmen who have frequently swamped the trained battalions of a civilized power. Perdiclaris, a wealthy man, was president of the European commission administrating affairs in Tangier city in 1904. He has told the story of his capture and it was recounted some time ago in a National Geographic society bulletin. He was snatched out of his summer home by Raisul's rulers, and borne off to a mountain stronghold. There the chieftain proceeded to open up negotiations with the sultan of Morocco, Perdiclaris' family and eventually in indirect fashion with the American government, concerning the price to be paid for his captive. The United States cut short the chaffering in the fashion described. The sultan, panic-striken, sent $70,000 in silver to Tangier jails and incarcerated some of Raisul's enemies in their place. Perdiclaris later returned to the United States to express his thanks. Prosperity, however, came close to ruining his erstwhile captor, Raisul. He got into a quarrel with the sultan about his governorship, was thrown off and promptly retaliated by bearing him to the court. Earle McLean, British commander of the Moroccan army. He arrayed his tribesmen for battle and descended to the coast, doing much damage to European interests, and in 1907 succeeded in setting all the hair-triggers in European diplomacy. The French navy bombarded one of his captive towns, Casablanca, the now practically extinct Kaiser Wilhelm came to bat, sniffing undue French expansion in prospect, but the matter was straightened out in a council chamber instead of on a battlefield. The French army moved to his mountain fastness, but news dispatches every few years record another of his eruptions. Captivated Captive. "In many respects the man interested and attracted me in spite of all my natural motives for dislike." Perdicaris says of Raisulin in the Geographic society's report, "Raisuln was gracious and dignified, not only to us, but to his own wild adherents, who evidently idolized their chiefstaff, whose position among them seemed that of a head of a highland clan in olden times. He was quick to see the humorous aspect of a situation, while his repatriate was immediate and to the point as though he had been born in the County Galway. "I found myself unconsciously accepting his contention that he was not a mere brigand or cattle lifter, but a patriot struggling to lift his Berber followers from the tyranny of corrupt officials. His charm of voice, the natural pulse and dignity of his manner, his self-control under provocation, all betrayed a superior character." ITALY ROAD WORK AIDS IDLE Government Appropriation of $53,600, - 000 Provides Jobs for Un- employed. Rome.-Financial depression has increased unemployment in Italy. To relieve the situation, the government has allotted 280,000,000 lire, equivalent at par to $53,600,000, for public works. This is in addition to relief works undertaken by local government bodies. The government fund will be used in hydraulic works, harbor improvements, dredging channels, coast protection works and similar enterprises. The last official figures showed 402,368 unemployed and 45,628 on part time in Italy. Poles Bar Shimmy and Trot. Warsew.-The "shimmy," the "scandal" and even the fox trot are under ban of the Polish government. All American dances, with the exception of the one-step, were prohibited by official order at the recent annual military ball. SHOWS WAR'S RAVAGES Astrakhan Much Like New Orleans After Civil War. Russian City Trying to Regain Its Former Prosperity, but Process Is Slow—Communism Not Liked There. Astrakhan, Russia.—Once prosperous but now ravaged by revolution, the situation of this city reminds the visitor of the condition of New Orleans after the Civil War. It is trying to regain its former prosperity, the process is slow. In its position Astrakhan resembles New Orleans in some ways. The city is pitched on an island at a point where the Volga river divides into many smaller streams, forming a delta that extends sixty miles to the Caspian sea. The commerce of Astrakhan was once comparable with that of St. Louis, Memphis or of New Orleans. It was rich in furs, in fish, in caviar and busy handling, freight which traversed the Volga. There was once food for every mouth and clothes for every back, with work a-plenty for every man. Today are seen the wrecks wrought by combat between the imperial and revolutionary forces, but no sympathy is expressed with communism. "We have had enough," said one of the workmen who, together with thousands of his fellows had for eighteen days, just after the Petrograd and Moscow risings in 1917, took to arms and besieged the Cossack troops and the wealthy people of the city, gathered in the Kremlin walls, 'in soldier barracks and other points at the side of the business district. The immediate result of these eighteen days of carnage was destruction of the duma buildings, the governor's house, the great bazaar and several blocks of stores filled with dry goods and Persian and Turkestan carpets, silks and other fineries. The ultimate result is indicated by the bare, fire-burned walls today standing gaint and cheerless, with no work on the river and no food in the homes for these workmen. The people have little money to buy anything. The spirited horses which once filled the horse market at the riverside have gone to the wars not to return or have been requisitioned for the press. Budemy cavalry, a few troops of which were in the provincial hospital where 200 patients lay there practically no broth for refuge fumes nor quinine for fever suffers. Doctor Zakatowsky, the surgeon in charge, said American relief was promised, but so far it had not come. The only public gathering places opened seemed to be the moving-picture theater, which was crowded with young people and soldiers of the Budenny cavalry watching an utterly villainous Italian tragedy. This girl prefers wild animals for her playmates. She is Gladys Dittmars, seventeen-year-old daughter of Dr. Raymond Dittmars, curator of the Bronx zoo in New York. She knows every species in the zoo by their first and last names. The kinkaju and woodchuck are small enough to be real pets and they always can be found around Gladys, who makes a great fuss over them. Nearly 55 Years a Teacher. New York.—Miss Alice Elizabeth Crandell retired as a teacher in the New York public schools after a con- firmation four years six months and sixteen days. She was first employed her salary was $152 a year. Her salary last year was $1,820. St. Paul — Arthur Lanter, twenty-seven, appeared at city hall with a 60-pound gray Wolf he killed with his bare hands, within the city limits. He was going home early in the morning when the wolf, which he first thought was a dog, sprang on him. Laner grasped it and bore it to the ground. Getting hold of its hind legs, he beat its brains out on the pavement. THE APPEAL. AIR "CHATTER" NOW POPULAR Wireless Telephone Receiving Stations Are Rapidly Growing in Number. MILLIONS BY END OF YEAR Washington Keepa No Record of Recreating Stations, but Officials Estimate Huge Number WHI Soon Be in Existence. Washington—Before the end of 1922 there will be installed throughout the United States a minimum of 1,000,000 receiving apparatus to pick up the "chatter" that is being broadcasted daily through the air by radio, so government officials in Washington estimate. No license and no record is required of receiving stations and there is no way of knowing all there are, but where there were only about 25,000 a year ago it is believed there are at least 200,000, now and that number fully half have broken into the radio game in the past thirty days. Developing Radio Operators. Washington has never wifitness anything like the way the wireless telephone has caught the imagination of the American people. All such matters come under D. B. Carson, commissioner of navigation in the Department of Commerce, Washington, who is literally deluged with applications for licenses for sending stations, especially the big broadcasting plants. The big growth has come within the past month since the few successful demonstrations on a large scale of the wireless telephone. Prior to this the department conducted propaganda to interest audiences to make a game, so the nation would have a reserve of radio operators who knew the game. Now it can hardly answer the thousands of queries that come in. Manufacturers of receiving apparatus for the wireless telephone report that they cannot begin to fill the orders and are doubling their output every few weeks, while the turning out of homemade apparatus is being undertaken by the inventive American boy. Farmer Will Benefit Most. As government officials in Washington see it, perhaps the biggest benefit from this new and marvelous development will accrue to the farmer in recruitment. Some months the Department of Agriculture began broadcasting market reports through postal stations at six points. Since then three state universities and a half dozen newspapers have taken up the proposition. IODINE LEADS AS ANTISEPTIC Especially Preferred by Physicians Engaged in Industrial Work, Conference Board Finde. New York.-Iodine still holds first place as a skin and wound disinfectant in surgical technician, particularly in the industrial medical field. Such objections as have been raised to it were against the danger of burns and the need for wound disinfection against its efficiency as a sterilizing agent. In spite of the great popularity attained by chlorin compounds in the treatment of war wounds, iodine still holds its general popularity and favor in medical circles in the treatment of injuries in civil life. The Conference Board of Physicians in Industry, which acts as adviser to the National Industrial Conference board, 10 East Thirty-ninth street, on medical problems in industry, recently investigated the extent in which iodine is used in wound disinfection in industrial work, the strength in which it is used and the method of preliminary cleansing of the wound before the application of iodine and dressings. Replies were received from 65 physicians, all of whom were doing industrial work or surgery closely allied to industry. Forty-five replied that they used a solution of five per cent strength or less and twenty used U. S. P. or greater strength. A few industrial physicians said they did not use iodine, or only sparingly. These men used chloramin-D, picric acid, Dakin's chloramin-D, picric acid. The objection to iodine was that it caused burns too frequently. Several physicians emphasized the importance of having the skin perfectly dry before iodine is applied. PROF. OUT AS COEDS POWDER California University Instructor May Return if Girls Drop Vanity Cases. Berkeley, Cal.-Diplomatic negotiations have been opened to have Alain Thaler, associate English professor at the University of California, return to the freshmen class whence he abruptly walked out because certain girl students would not stop powdering their noses. "Yes, I admit I walked out," Prof. Thaler said. "I asked them to put aside their vanity cases and attend to their work and they just giggled at me and powdered away all the harder. "The giggler, it is reported, have agreed to park their vanity houses outside and the professor is expected to return to the class at once." CANADA SECOND PHONE LAND Ottawa, Ont.-Canada ranks second to the United States among the countries of the world in the number of telephones in proportion to the population, according to the statistical bureau of the Canadian government. The United States has 13.6 telephones to the 100 of population and Canada has 9.8, according to these records. "In 1921 there were 856,266 telephones in use in Canada, an increase of 10 per cent over 1920. The wire mileage used by 2,194,101," says the bureau report. "Naturally the most telephones in the south dominion are in the large cities. Such cities as Montreal, Quebec, Toronto, Ottawa, Winnipig, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver and Victoria have as good telephone service as any cities in the United States. But in the last two or three years there has been a very large increase in the number of telephones in the rural districts of the prairie provinces." CARRIED HOME AFTER MEAL Philadelphia Man Eats 12-Pound Turkey, 53 Oysters, With Many Side Dishes. Philadelphia, Pa.—William Lee always boasted of the fact that he could eat as much as six men at one sitting. He confided this to Michael Yaffe and William Smith. They would not take Lee at his word and demanded a demonstration with $25 as the stakes in case Lee won. Lee is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 238 pounds. He first ordered a 14-pound turkey with stuffing. This vanished within 45 minutes. He picked the bones clean. Then in the words of John Paul Jones, Lee said, "I haven't started to eat." He then ate 35 oysters two pounds of pork chops, one dozen eggs, two slices of a large beef steak, drank 12 cups of coffee, ate three loaves of bread, and during the meal drank 26 bottles of soda water. Smith and Yaffe passed over the stakes to the diner and had to carry him home. PLUCKY VET 4 YEAR$ BEDFAST "Is He Downhearted? No," and is Fighting Pluckily for Recovery Adrian, Mich—Bedridden nearly four years as the result of a spinal infliction contracted in service overseas, the war still has considerable reality for Brace M. Slater, Adrian soldier, who is making a plucky fight for health at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. David S. Slater. The young man's aliment has left his limbs paralyzed and he has been complaining for bed continuously. He is receiving the best care and is still hopeful of recovery. Slater is a graduate of Brown Business university here. Two months after his enlistment, April 27, 1918, he went overseas. Seven of the ten months he served in France he was in base hospital No. 50, Meves, France, with complications brought on by influenza. CLOTHES KILL POLYNESIANS More Fatal to Natives of Pacific Islands Than Rum or Opium, Saye Captain Salisbury. New York.—Too many clothes is the great trouble with the dying Polynesians of the Pacific islands, according to Capt. Edward Salisbury, who has spent much time among them. Captain Salisbury passed in the task of outfitting his yacht for another cruise to those islands and explained that when the missionaries finally convinced the Polynesians that it was wrong to go naked the Polynesians adopted clothing and acquired tuberculosis. Clothes, he said, had done these natives more harm than run or opium. The fewer the clothes the greater the health. If this applies also to the Caucasians New York girls who keep up with the styles ought to be the healthiest lot on earth at this instant. Bescuer Is Left $100,000 Cape Girardeau, Mo.-Jacob Kirchhoff, a cement laborer here at 35 cents an hour, was notified that he had inherited $100,000 from his uncle, Casper Kirchhoff of Pittsburgh, Pa., whose life he saved in a railroad accident in East St. Louis, Ill., thirty-one years ago. Wife's Last Dollar Buys Executed Man's Coffin Nashville', Temn. — Ashbury Fields, convicted of the murder of J. P. Pierce last summer, was electrocuted in the state prison here. Shortly after the death-dealing shock had been given Fields, his wife, small, demure and pretty, entered an undertaker's shop and spent her last dollar for a plush stocking box. She worked the mouse, by work in a hostery mill, where she had been employed since Fields arrest. "I don't know that Asbury wasn't guilty," she said, "but I couldn't bear to see him buried by charity." MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY MONROE'S HOME TO BE RESTORED New York House Wherein Author of "Doctrine" Died Rescued From Junkman. ENDED DAYS WITH DAUGHTER American Scenic and Historic Society Will Preserve Last Haven of Fifth President of the United States. New York.—In what used to be the parlor of an aged, ramshackle house at 63 Prince Street, New York, a brace of junk men the other day stopped among little mounds of rags and bones and bottles, their hands moving in a wild frenzy of assortment. From the celling hung hung chains of dirt, the walls were great faces pockmarked by the plague of neglect. The floor seemed as the grimy palette of the artist Time, who had painted the place, in skillful completeness, with a thick coat of dust. Against this single motif, black, the junk men worked with fastidious care. That front room was clean and cheerful in 1830. It was of real beauty, for, as the house was in a fashionable section of New York, the reception of persons high in the circles took place there. And one day in winter James Monroe, fifth president of the United States, mounted the steps with perhaps the thought well in his mind that here would be his last haven. An Arrival Prepared for- One may imagine how busy Mrs. Samuel L. Gouverneur was as she directed the servants to tidy the home for her father, Mr. Monroe, observes the Kansas City Times. He was seventy-two years old, and sire realized that it would be extremely nice for her to make him as comfortable as possible; he needed comfort; his health was impaired, his fortune shattered, and he had been overwhelmed only a twelvemonth before by the death of his wife. So, in that room where the junk man labored with their choice bits of soiled cloth and their smell bottles only the other day, the man who conceived the Monroe doctrine sat, almost a hundred years ago, and reviewed his career, or read, or merely looked far and away, in consumate idleness. His death occurred in the daughter's home July 4, 1831. The old brick house is to be given a reverent bath and preserved by the American Scenic and Historic society. Day by day it has suffered under the lack of care; many a wrinkle has appeared in its stark countenance, and if such a living as a house can be amusing the case is that it has felt many a cringe in its joints. It was once proud and pretty, for Mr. Gouverneur was postmaster nine years, and it sheltered gatherings of the elite. It is fitting that this former dwelling place of the author of one America's most persistently arising national policies should be rescued from oblivion among jobbing houses and garages. On a front outside wall of the once colonial mansion is a memorial tablet of Mr. Monroe. It was unveiled April 28, 1905, by Governor Hoes, then fifteen years old, a great-great-grandson, under the auspices of the women's auxiliary to the scenic and historic group which sponsored the move. The date marked the 147th anniversary of the birth of the former President. At the time there was a cheap restaurant in the drawing room; a shoe factory's machinery rattled on the second floor and from the dormer window dung the sign of a furrier. The room was a place and disappear for the day so the auxiliary could hold its ceremony within. Versatile Public Life When Mr. Monroe left his *Virginia* home to live in New York he had ended a versatile public life. At eighteen he left Williams college to enter the revolutionary army of George Washington, and rose to be military commissioner of his home state. He was elected to the assembly of Virginia later; in time he became a member of congress, he was in the convention which considered the constitution, and he was minister plenipotentiary to France. On his return Mr. Monroe was chosen governor of Virginia; then, as envoy extraordinary to France, he negotiated the Louisiana purchase. After holding the ministerial position in the British isles he entered as a leading figure the negotiations for the purchase of Florida from Spain. A second term as governor of Virginia and periods of duty in the secretaryships of state and war preceded his election twice as President. Outstanding of the services of Mr. Monroe was that which has come to man so much in the determination American international relations in the action of the scenic and historic society is to be restored the final refuge of the man whose chief claim to perpetual glory was the declaration that: "Neither entangling ourselves in the broils of Europe nor suffering any power of the world to interfere with the affaits of the new, and attempt on their (the European powers) part to extend to any portion of this hemisphere would be dangerous to our peace and safety and would be opposed accordingly." THE EMPORIUM QUALITY CANDIES - SAINT PAUL FIGHT ON PNEUMONIA Army Doctors Seek Vaccine to Prevent Dread Disease. Mortality in Modern War Could Be Cut One-Half if Preventive for Pneumonia and Other Respiratory Diseases in Found. Chicago—Merritt W. Ireland, surgeon general of the United States army, declared that the mortality in modern war could be cut virtually one-half if a preventive for pneumonia and other respiratory diseases could be found. As a corollary he asserted the elimination of the menace of pneumonia would cause such a rapid increase in the population of the world that in a short time we wouldn't know what to do with the surplus. His statements were made at the Congress hotel, where he was a guest of medical men attending the eighteenth annual congress on medical education, public health and hospitals. He said they are based on figures compiled from the death lists of Americans in the great war. These figures disclose that while 37,000 soldiers were killed on the battlefield, 45,000 died from pneumonia in the hospitals and training camps, he said. Of these 42,000 died in four months. "The greatest problem before medical men today is finding a vaccine or preparation which will prevent the contraction of diseases which lead to pneumonia and death," General Ireland said. "This controlled, deaths from other diseases, especially in warfare, would be negligible. "Physicians all over the country are bending their best efforts to the solution of this problem. In the army we have been making extensive experiments and it is possible now that we are on the track of a preparation which will lead to the desired result." "Within the last few weeks army physicians have been trying out a new vaccine in the army and some of the reports are encouraging. That, however, is all we can say. It will take months of work before anything definite will be known." "If war should be declared tomorrow, I would not need to have a single cot prepared for patients suffering from typhoid fever and malaria; the diseases which worked such havoc in the Spanish-American war. These present condition control. But under present condition, would make a huge outlay both in money, beds, and medicines for the fight against respiratory diseases." Mrs. Lufu C. Daniel, oldest inmate of the Arkansas Confederate home near Little Rock, Ark, is just one hundred and three years of age. She is anything but a "has been" having a younger outlook on life than many women half her age. She makes all her own clothes, even to the Irish crochet lace on her dainty collars. She is a stranger to digestive or other ills. Her lightness of foot is phenomenal. Piga Milk Cow. Luray, Va.—The mysterious milking every night for some time of a cow belonging to David Baker, a farmer of this county, has just been explained. Keeping a constant watch on the cow for a night revealed the fact that several pigs were responsible. The pigs were found standing on their hind legs pulling and tugging at their breakfast. Boy Knocks Man's Pipe in Haymow; Barn Burned John L. Hayward of West Bridgewater, Mass., was enjoying an after-breakfast smoke at the door of his barn when a boy in a passing automobile threw a snowball. It knocked the pipe out of Hayward's mouth. Boy Hayward pursued the boy, burning tobacco from the pipe set fire to the hay in the mow. The barn and dairy were destroyed, with a loss of $2,200. $2.40 PER YEAR MEXIA TYPICAL MUSHROOM CITY Texas Town Grows From Sleepy Place of 3,000 to 30,000 Inhabitants Over Night. OIL BOOM IS RESPONSIBLE Hundreds Are Forced to Sleep Out- Doors and There is but One Bathhouse in the Place— Prices Are High. Mexia, Texas—Mexia, which has come into so much notoriety through the sending of state troops here to put an out to outlaw, the sale of illicit booze and restore order, is a typical mushroom city. Overnight a tented city arose. From an apparently sleepy little town of 3,000 population in October, 1921, where old settlers farmed for a living and eked out a bare existence from their lands to a bustling city of 30,000 people, and all in a few months, this is the recent record of Mexia, an old-time Texas town, which is feeling the effects of one of the numerous oil developments in the Southwest. The population now consists of an assortment of oil field followers and thousands of men and women seeking employment. Consequently because of the exhortant prices charged for a room, if one were lucky enough to secure one, hundreds of men, favored by the long continued mild winter, are sleeping on the grass along railroad tracks, parked parking places and, in fact, are building them. Beds in Tents Coty. Overnight a bed in a tent marked "A place to flop" soared from 50 cents a night to $3. A night in a crude plank structure where one didn't know his bed-fellow or the hundreds of others in the single room cost $5. Rail traffic jumped hundreds of per cent. There are two trunk lines, the Houston & Texas Central and the Trinity & Brazos Valley, leading through here, and passenger traffic is very heavy, while freight trains are frequently seen running three abreast, so heavy is the demand for oil machinery. One road is said to have spend $20000 in enlarging its facilities. The other, altogether what could be desired. Getting a bath here is quite an experience, if indeed not a task. The old saying, "If you want to do something big—wash an elephant," certainly has found parallel in Mexia. But One Bathhouse. This luxury may be found, outside the woodland creeks, only in a downtown bar shop. The bathhouse is a stall in a wooden-floored, planked-in-inclosure. The plain, pine planks are slippery, but the proprietors of the house have found that it is not necessary to maintain first-aid kits because the board floors are warped enough to allow the bather a foothold. But as for oil. There are a solid six miles of new derricks, drillers, outfits, tents, wooden buildings and people where once there was the open prairie. A survey of all local lumber men shows that bulldogs completed contracted for since October 1 total between $3,500,000 and $5,000,000. Gambling and drinking halls filled with dancing girls are open every night, and one may buy open "red" and "corn" whisky at 50 cents a drink. Fortunes are lost overnight at the dice and roulette tables. FLOOD BENEFIT TO FARMERS Water Left Fine Silt of Good Earth on Impoverished Lands in Washington. Sedro Woolley, Wash.—A fine silt of very fertile earth land from two to five inches deep was left on the inundated farm lands when the flooded Skagit river subsided to its regular channel. The layer of silt had added great value to the valley lands, according to owners. The flood, which was the most extensive known here since the early homeestead days, lasted from December 10 until the middle of January. The rise of the river was attributed to torrential downpours in the foothills and mountains through which the Skagit flows. The heavy rain washed immense amounts of rich top soil from the hills into the flood and all this material was carried into the valley and deposited. BLINDNESS DECREASES IN U. S. Cases Drop From 57,272 in 1910 to 52,617 in 1920, Say Census Figures. Washington, D. C.—The number of blind persons in the United States decreased from 57,272 in 1910 to 52,617 in 1920, according to figures for the last census announced by the census bureau. The decrease was attributed in part to advanced methods for treatment in blindness and also to education of the public in preventing blindness. Blue Eyes Mean Soft Bones. Copenhagen—The bones of persons who have blue eyes are more fragile and more liable to fracture than those whose eyes are of other colors, according to investigations made by Dr. Olaf Blegdav and Dr. Holger Haxthausen.

Bible Thought for Today WHAT DOES GOD REQUIRE? — And now, Israel, what does the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love Him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul—Deuteronomy 10:12. GET BUSY WITH THE U. S. SENATORS. 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. Culberson, 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 telegraphs 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. IT MUST NOT BE The proposition to establish a playground for COLORED children in St. Paul is un-American and THE AP-PEAL is opposed to it. One of the strange phases of jim-crowism in these days in the fact that nine-tenths of the plans to degrade the colored people into a pariah class are conceived in the brains of people who call themselves Christians. In the majority of cases when the colored man is kicked down it is done "for his benefit" and "in the name of the Lord." No doubt some of the promoters believe that they are doing a great thing for the colored people of Saint Paul but they are mistaken. Paul, to the white people as well as the colored people, than the attempt to segregate one group of citizens. It is a thing which will serve to inflame the fires of race prejudice. It is inconceivable that any colored people could so belittle themselves as to be parties to so infamous a scheme and it is infamous whether it is so intended or not. We are glad to know that the superintendent of playgrounds opposes the plan. The decent self-respecting people of Saint Paul must fight the nefarious scheme to a finish. If you are a good American you should oppose it. IT MUST NOT BE! EMMET'S EPITAPH Having been convicted by a Dublin court of taking part in the Irish Rebellion of 1798, Robert Emmet, the greatest Irish patriot, was duly executed by the British authorities. He closed his last speech with these words: "I have but one request to make on my departure from this world. Let no man write my epitaph; for, as no man who knows my motives, dare now vindicate them, let not prejudice asperse them. Let my tomb remain unscribed, until other times and other men can do justice to my character. When my country shall take her place among the nations of the earth, then, and not until then, let my epitaph be written." More than one hundred years have passed, during which time thousands of brave Irishmen have laid down their lives to free their beloved country from the horrors of British oppression. The Irish have fought Britain to the death, Britain was whipped, and just the other day the birth of the new Irish Free State was celebrated. No doubt Emmett's martyrdom did much to keep burning the fires of nationalism which have at last made Ireland a nation. To Robert Emmett more than to any other one man may the successful ending of the fight for freedom be credited. Now let his epitaph be written. EGYPT IS FREE. There is great rejoicing in Egypt, Sultan Ahmed Fud Pasha has announced with due pomp and ceremony that Egypt has become an independent and sovereign state and that he, the Sultan, has assumed the title of the King of Egypt. The British High Commissioner, Field Marshal Lord Allenby, called at the Royal palace after the ceremonies at Cairo and congratulated King Fud, whom he addressed as "Your Majesty." How has this been accomplished? By cringing and saying "We don't want this and we don't want that and we don't want the other"? No. The Egyptians defied Great Britain and refused to accept anything except absolute freedom. They fought for it, they died for it and they got it! The U. S. Senate is being told of the horrible atrocities committed by Gen. Gregorio Semenoff, ataman of the Russian Cossack. It is a terrible recital and the grave and reverend senators are horrified, as the fearful things were done 6,000 miles away by people who are considered not more than half civilized. Worse atrocities were committed (according to the testimony before the Senate investigating committee), by U. S. marines in Haiti, and the details scarcely caused a ripple of excitement. Haiti is so much nearer, it has been gobbled by the U. S. A. and the marines are "our boys." It makes a big difference whose ox is gored. - 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. The press cables tell us that one Louis Borno, a conservative and a member of the present cabinet, has been ELECTED PRESIDENT OF HAITI BY UNANIMOUS VOTE. The intelligent people of Haiti do not wish the present kickpitt crowd of Haitians to continue in alleged power so they must be something wrong with the election. Perhaps the military rules from the U. S. A. could a tale unfold. The Daughters of 1912 are very indignant because the histories used in the schools teach that the founders of the nation were rag-time, smugglers and a disgruntled lot generally. Many of the first families of the South are direct descendants of criminals and indented servants sent over from England and there is also a large percentage of African blood. The Illinois constitutional convention during the absence of Delegate Edward H. Morris, adopted an amendment which would prohibit inter-marriage of white and colored people. When Morris returned he quickly had the amendment voted down, thus obliterating the race and color line. Minnesota will give back all captured Confederate battle flags held by organizations and individuals in the state. The commander says the action is "to prove friendship to Dixie." And as the friendship for Dixie increases, the hatred of the colored man increases. Think it over. "Jazz" music has been introduced into hospitals at Washington, D. C. During operations lively strains of canned music are "fed" to patients. It is thought to have two effects: one to lull the sub-concious mind of the patient and the other to accelerate the actions of the attendants. William Jennings Bryan's recent attack on the theory of evolution causes, the Reverend George Craig Stewart to cry out: "Mr. Bryan is a conspicuous example of the man who thinks he is thinking, but who is only rearranging his prejudices. Few men really think. The U. S. Senate has passed by viva voce the House resolution extending for two years the present law restricting immigration to the United States to three per cent of the number of foreign nationals in this country. An anti-Christian movement is spreading rapidly in China. The Chinese are unable to grasp the idea of a religion which teaches the brotherhood of man yet permits the white races to trample the colored races under foot. Booth Tarkington, the great writer, says that automobiles, telephones, and now the radio are conspiring to pull the average citizen from his fireside and his bookshelves and making the United States a non-reading nation. MASS. CITIZENS TO PETITION LODGE FOR ACTION ON DYER BILL ON GRAND CENTENNIAL NIGHT ASK REPUBLICAN LEADER OF SENATE TO MAKE A PARTY MEASURE OF BILL PROMISED IN REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. Boston, Mass., April 28, 1922.—From the rant of historic Charles Street A. M. E. chuck of the birth of centennial night of the birth of U.S. S. Grant, Union commander and president, friend of the colored race and executor of the constitution, April 27, 1922, the Greater Boston Branch of the National Equal Rights League launched a movement to promote a signed petition to U. S. Senator C. Lodge of Massachusetts, in his capacity as Republican leader of the Senate to have the Republican party espouse the Dyer anti-lynching bill, and thus secure action and get the bill out of committee. Congressman Dyer in a recent speech to the Boston N. A. A. C. P. had declared the colored people could do more for passage of the bill than the black people. The Senate leader is from Massachusetts and comes up for re-election this year. He repeated this to the national secretary of the league and the petition which is being circulated for signatures all over the state. The league's resolve for the Dyer bill in the Massachusetts legislature brought a strong editorial for the bill. Boston American and all the Hearest people are up for final action on Wednesday and will also spur Lodge to action. U. S. VETERANS' BUREAU Transfer from Washington to the District Office of the Veterans' Bureau in Minneapolis of control over nine thousand cases of service men receiving or seeking training or compensation, was announced by C. D. Hibbard, District Manager. Completion of the case transfer from Washington is characterized as the biggest single step yet taken toward carrying out the provisions of the bill, which declared that the functions centered in Washington should be carried out to the District Offices with full power to test them. The nine thousand cases over which complete control was transferred to Minneapolis were received about ten days ago, and the work of consolidating and putting the list of them into shape for full functioning in Minneapolis has been finished. Another shipment of twenty thousand and disallowed claims soon will be forwarded to the Minneapolis Office, which, although temporarily inactive at any time upon his representation that for compensation or training has arisen since the case was disallowed. The changes effected make possible: Settling back claims for compensation with reference to Washington, and immediate payment of amount due. Increasing or decreasing of compensation paid because the service man's condition is found to have been severe. Saving of nine days on cases sent to Washington, and multiples of that number in case papers have to be sent back. Saving transfer from compensation to training for vice versa, and discharge from either by the Minneapolis District office. The status now reached is that contemplated by the Sweet Bill. The bill will now applications from the former service men resident in the states of Minnesota, North and South Dakota and Montana have been handled direct accumulated old cases will henceforth be adjudicated in the District office.

Ruggles, state entateologist and professor of economic entomology at the Minnesota, in lieu of moth balls in trunk or clothes chest this summer. A small amount of the crystals in the trunk will destroy all insect pests that do not leave, he says. It may be used to treat drug stores. The chemical came into use during the war and has proved very popular. Law Aimed at Ku Klux Passed in Kansas City, Kan.

POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK IS OBSERVED May 1 Sees Inaugurated First General Campaign of Kind in Service. Without the Postal Service, business would languish in a day, and be at a standstill in a week. Public opinion would die of dry rot. Sectional hatred or prejudice only would flourish, and narrow-mindedness thrive. It is the biggest distinctive business in the world and it comes nearer to the innermost interests of a greater number of men and women than any other institution on earth. No private business, however widespread, touches so many lives so often or sharply; no church reaches into so many souls, flutters so many pulses, so many human beings dependent on its ministrations. "Postal Improvement Week" has been set for May 1, by the Postmaster General. This is the first general campaign of its kind in the Postal Service for several decades. Business men and their organizations, large users of the mail, newspapers, motion pictures, advertisers, and the entire organization of 326,000 postal workers are to be enlisted in this country-wide campaign of interest in postal improvements. Your help is vital. Address your letters plainly with pen or typewriter. Give street address. Spell out name of State, don't abbreviate. Put your address in the upper left hand corner of corner of desk (feet in the back) and always look at your letter being dropping in the mail to see if it is properly addressed. This care in the use of the mails is for your benefit and speeds up the dispatch and delivery of mail matter. If you have any complaints of poor service make them to your postmaster. He has instructions to investigate them and report to the department. COURTESY It sticks in human relations like postage stamps on letters. The POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT expects it to be used by its postmasters and employees in dealing with the public. Help them in its use beginning with POSTAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK. May 16, 1922. THANK YOU WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY The Dead Letter Office has been in existence ever since Ben Franklin started our postal service. Even then people addressed mail to Mr. Ezekiel Smithers, "Atlantic Coast," and expected Ben to know just where Zeke lived. Perhaps they had Zeke's address in letters up in the garret, maybe a chest full of 'em, but then it was easier to let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are addressing letters to John Smith, New York, N. Y., or Chicago, Ill., thinking Uncle Sam can locate him, which is just as incomplete as was Zeke's address of yore. The Postoffice Department asks you to put the number and street in the address. It helps you. Trinidad Col. How do you expect the Postal Clerk to know whether you mean Trinidad, California, or Trinidad, Colorado? ALWAYS SPELL OUT THE NAME OF STATE IN FULL IN THE ADDRESS. This.apt phrase was used in President Harding's first message to Congress and applies particularly in postal management where postmasters are being impressed with the fact that they are managers of local branches of the biggest business in the world. HERE COMES A STRANGER! Let's make our post office look neat, Mr. Postmaster, Straighten up the rural letter box, Mr. Farmer. Tidy up some, Mr. Rural Carrier. First impressions are lasting. Maybe Mr. Stranger, taking notice of these improvements, will come back, bringing you benefits. Start these with "POS-TAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK" May 16. HUMANIZING THE POSTAL SERVICE "There is no unimportant person or part of our service. It is a total of human units and their co-operation is the key to its success. In its last analysis, postal duties are accommodations performed for our neighbors and friends and should be so regarded, rather than as a hired service performed for an absentee employee."—Postmaster General Hubert Work. Oklahoma Bars Guardmen from the Ku. Klux. Klan.

Seven Ways To Help The Editor (Osage City Free Press.) First of all give him the NEWS. He wants it. Give it to him though sometimes it does not get into the paper. He hasn't time always to tell you why some pieces of news are not used; but ten to one he has a perfectly good and personal reason. Give him the news even though you may not be especially interested in it. Some folks never think to give the editor news except when they are concerned in it one way or another. Second, don't give, him a piece of news and tell him you want it printed just as it is written. There is a right and a wrong-way to do even such a thing as writing an article for a paper. One editor had to leave town because he printed every piece of news just as it was handed in—spelling, punctuation and all—printed it with the name of the person who gave it in. Third, don't try to play a joke through the paper unless you explain it to the editor. A thing in cold type looks a lot different and sounds different from a thing repeated by word of mouth, when the voice, a facial expression and a gesture, perhaps helps to show its meaning. Fourth, don't worry for fear the editor is making too much money. You should want him to be prosperous. He can and will give you a better paper. He will be less likely to have to compromise with his conscience over certain kinds of advertising. And, anyhow, he can't make a big fortune out of his paper—he will be lucky if he keeps going. Fifth, be ready to tell your editor when something in the paper please you. Once in a while you tell your preacher he delivered a good sermon, so tell the editor something about his paper. Sixth, get your "copy" to him early. Take it to him for the next week the day after the previous publication, if you can. It takes time to set type and make a paper. Did you ever wonder what the editor did all the time between publication days? You would know if you were publishing a newspaper yourself. Seventh, last but not least PAY WHAT YOU OWE.
