The Appeal

In Business, Fortunes Are Not Realized Unless Your Goods Are Amply Advertised. VOL. 38 NO. 48 MANY FAIRS TO BE HELD IN 1922 Commercial Exhibitions Springing to Life After Discouragement of War Years. Future May See Fair Established in Ark of Air Capable of Carrying Message of Progress and Culture to Remote Places. Washington.—"From Winnipeg to Rio de Janeiro, and from Christiana and Algers to Singapore and Tokyo, commercial fairs and exhibitions are springing to life after the discouragement of war years, and are playing an increasingly important part in making nations acquainted with each other and with the kinds of lives each leads," says a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic society. The bulletin points out that a greater number of such expositions is scheduled for 1922 than those held in pre-war days in a decade. "Fairs have been important factors in the lives of nations and in the evolution of society itself," continues the bulletin in order to survive they have had to undergo some vital changes. They probably started in the dim days or prehistoric Asia as sort of irregular markets held at relatively long intervals; and during the Middle Ages when transportation was difficult they were the chief agencies of European trade. A Few Old Types Survive. **Types Survive.** "Where conditions are relatively primitive the retired old fairs have continued to function until today. The annual fair at Nizhgorod continued largely to dominate the commercial life of Russia until the revolution, and even since then the distribution of foodstuffs, textiles and furs through this old gathering place of traders has been an important item. For centuries it has been the gigantic exchange counter between vast areas of Asia and Europe. In the portions of the world well developed with highways, canals, railways and ocean ports, both the local and international! fairs of the old type, devoted largely to the distribution of staple supplies, died out. But the fair idea lived on, merely changing its form. Special industries and groups of industries began holding expositions in England and France, and the idea spread to other countries. "Before a great while these localized and restricted exhibits expanded to include many industries, those of foreign lands as well as their own. Soon, with the advent of the fairies, the first of which was held in London in 1861. Many have been held since, both in America and Europe, Paris holding the palm for numbers." "But at the root of the world fairs or international expositions was the idea of general education, and closely connected with it was the amusement aspect. They served well as occasional more or less sugar-coated demonstrations of the progress of the world, but they failed to measure up to the efficiency standards of the world, but they failed to measure up to the efficiency standards of the medium distributor. Side by side with international industrial exhibits and sample fairs, and by the outbreak of the World war these had been forged into modern agencies meeting Twentieth century conditions. Now that all nations are girding themselves for an after-the-war scramble for trade such fairs are being held on all sides. "Samples of almost every conceivable manufactured product and machine are sent to some of these exhibits, duty free, and orders are solicited from the buyers who gather from various countries. Among the fairs of this sort which have become the focus of international those held in London, Birmingham, Lyon, Brussels, Dresden, Leipzig, Prague, Barcelona and Milan; and in dozens of other cities it is planned to hold such exhibits annually. Fair That Go to the People. "In meeting modern conditions not only have fairs been placed on a sample basis and confined largely to specialities, machines and manufactured articles, but they are seeking out still further numbers of potential buyers larger numbers of potential buyers Italian manufacturers have adopted the floating fair, fitting out a special exhibit ship which anchors for a time in the various ports around the rim of the Mediterranean from Port Said to Marselles. French distributors carried the idea of a traveling fair still further last year, sending an exhibit train across Canada; and a Czechoslovak train of a similar sort has just finished a two months' tour through the Balkans and Poland. Perhaps it is not too extravagant a vision to see the fair which had its humble beginning in some far off Asiatic coasts, established in an ark of the air and capable of carrying its message of progress and foreign culture to every little center of industry and life." Saved by Healing Dog's Tail. Frenze, Cal.-Floyd, Johnson, and Altan Self, both sixteen, lost in a blizzard in the mountains, thirty miles east of here, were led to safety by holding to the tail of a dog, it was learned today. A short time later a rescue party found two other boys, lost in the same blinding storm, lying in the snow exhausted. Dog First Saves Baby, Then Rums for Help Redwood City, Calif. — The faithfulness and initiative of a Scottish collie saved the life of three-year-old Jean MacAlister. The child wandered from home and was not missed until the dog appeared in great excitement and began tugging at the skirts of Mrs. MacAlister, who was working in the yard. The mother followed "Don," the collie, to a large pond nearly half a mile away, where she found her child lying on the bank with her clothes drenched. Apparently little Jean had fallen into the pond and had been pulled out by the dog. DROPS HALF-MILE IN CHUTE Mountain Climber Has Thrilling Experience in Heavy Snow in Washington. Snouglomme, Wash.—Stepping out to the edge of a snow-covered precipice to point out some scenery to his wife and little son, Howard Rupert, a salesman, disappeared into loose snow. Mrs. Rupert quickly notified men nearby, who looked in vain for several hours for Rupert. They were about to give up the search on account of darkness when the missing man appeared. He declared he had dropped into a loose snowdrift and falling through landed directly into an unused log chute to carry timber in summer to the river far below. Rupert said the chute was filled with ice and that he tobogganed down into the valley at such a high rate of speed he could not yell loud enough to be heard. Loggers found he had taken a ride of fully half a mile in the ice-bound log chute. Rupert was uninjured, but was minus a large part of his wearing apparel.

FATHER OF 28 BOSSES RANCH Declares None of His Wives or Off Spring Were Allowed to "Talk Back." Greensboro, N. C. "Uncle Bob" Austin, an old-time darky living near here, is the father of 28 sons and daughters, 28 of whom are living. All seven having gone off to them selfs, he has taken three other children to rear. Uncle Bob's first wife bore him eight children, the second, fourteen; the third, still a hunky young woman, six. Austin is the tenant manager of a farm. He eats three square meals a day and chews tobacco, but does not smoke and doesn't allow smoking on his premises. No wife or child of his ever gave him any "back talk" more than once, or if they gets uplift I soon trims ten." If they get a chuckle, "In my house day must go my way." Austin is seventy-one years old and was born a slave. He remembers hiding meat in the woods when Sherman's army came through North Carolina after its march through Georgia to the sea. Union City, Mich.—Farmers living near Athens have been puzzled for a week trying to solve a mystery on the farm of E. B. Adams. Christmas morning while Mr. Adams was doing the chores, he was startled at what appeared to be a grinning face peering through a crack in the steps leading to his connib. Investigation disclosed a set of false teeth. No one living in that region has lost their teeth, he has learned, and how the "grinders" happened to stray to so remote a place is a puzzle to the ruralities. Frate Use Mental Torture. Providence, R. I.—Intellectual barbary has replaced the traditional physical punishment applied to freshmen fraternity candidates at Row.

PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1922 HAS PORCH AUTOS CAN'T HIT Postmaster Whose Home is on Sharp Curve, of Road Tires of Being Bumped by Speeders. Newton, N. J.—Postmaster Lester T. Smith of Layton has a big front porch on his house, which is on Bingman's road at a point where there is a sharp curve, and for many years he has sat there in the evenings and smoked his pipe without anything happening to Him. But the other day he was having a smoke when an automobile came around the bend and skidded, smashing into the porch and wrecking one end of it.

Alexander MacDonald, a farmer, has boarded up his valley home and fed with his family and chattels in the The automobilist paid for the damage and went on his way and the postmaster sent for a carpenter, who worked all night and all morning putting a new end on the porch. Late in the afternoon the postmaster went out to have another smoke, but he had hardly tilted his chair back and lighted his pipe when another automobile came whizzing around the curve and skidded. Once more the machine crashed into the porch and wrecked an end of it, and since it was the end on which he was sitting, he went down with the wreckage. But he was not hurt, and got out of the debris in time to collect the automobilist, who paid and drove, then the postmaster called for the carriage to give orders, but not for a new front door. He told the carpenter to tear down the front porch and build one on the rear of the house. "Maybe I'll have peace there," he said. "Soon as I get my new porch done they can skid all they want to, but to get me they'll have to jump over the house." BUILDING AT HIGH MARK Reports From 141 Cities in the United States Show Greatest Activity in Years. New York.—Building records for June, showing a total construction value of $218,674,499 in 141 cities, set a new high record for 1922, Bradstreet's reports. The previous high mark for the year was $206,804,015 in May. The June figure compared with $127,671,278 in June, 1921. The total for the second quarter of 1922, $683,588,381, makes a gain of 52 per cent over the high-record first quarter of this year and of 63.7 per cent above that recorded in the same quarter of 1921. This second quarter's total, it might be noted, is slightly in excess of the total for the combined first and second quarters of 1921. This total for the half-year, with 28 cities yet to be heard from as to June, is $1,200,988,472, a gain of 75.9 per cent over the like period last year. GERMANY EXPELS COUNTESS Hetta Trauberg, Pacificist, Driven from Native Land for Her Peace Propaganda. Vienna.—Countess Hetta Trauberg, the German pacifist, who was interned by the Germans during the late war because she condemned submarine warfare, the deportation of Belgian and French women and children and the treatment of allied prisoners, has been expelled from Germany because she still persists in her peace propaganda. She is at present in Vienna, where she is compiling a book, deriving much of her material from the archives of Vienna. She is said to have secured war letters exchanged between the emperor of Russia, Emperor William of Germany and the Austrian emperor, Francis Joseph. GREATER NAVY FOR SWEDEN Parliamentary Commission Urges the Building of Fast Cruisers and Destroyers. Stockholm, Sweden.—A parliamentary commission, supported by navy experts, has proposed for the Swedish navy a building program for the next ten years of four fast armored cruisers, twelve destroyers, twoboat boats, three mine layers, twenty-two submarine chasers and a number of smaller craft. The armored cruisers are to be 6,500 tons each, with a speed of thirty knots, with eight 21-centimeter and six 12-centimeter guns. As the proposal is based on parliamentary consideration, there is a probability of its being passed at the coming session. Board Bill Too Heavy, Prisoner Is Released Arthur States of Lima, O. literally ate his way out of prison, where he was serving a term because of his inability to pay a fine of $1,000 on a liquor charge. He served only a few weeks when the county commissioners began figuring out results of the incarceration of States at a fixed amount a day to apply on his fine. The board ordered him paroled with the understanding that he pay $7 a month on the fine. Eleven years will be required to liquidate it. His board had already cost the county $100. Commissioners figured that it would cost $1,249.50 to collect the fine for the state had he remained in jail. HOLD BIG STORES FOR AIR SERVICE Unole Sam Has Immense Supply of Material for Airplanes on Hand. Supplies Worth $50,000,000 Stored There, While Machinery and Equipment at Plant Represent Another $100,000,000. San Antonio, Tex.-Not much has been said about it, but it is a fact that the United States government air intermediate depot, situated on the outskirts of San Antonio, contains army aviation materials valued at $50,000,000, while the machinery and other equipment that can be made up the plant has an additional value of $100,000,000. It is one of the largest aviation and repair centers in the United States. The buildings which comprise the government property are of permanent character. The special purpose of maintaining the depot is to keep constantly on hand a complete and large storehouse and their parts for supplying the army aviation service. The warehouses are filled with hundreds of airplane wings and motors. There are thousands of motors. Every three months these motors must be taken out of their boxes, thoroughly sprayed with a form of grease to prevent rust and then treated to a similar coat of oil on the inside of the cylinders and other internal parts. They are so delicate that they must be carefully handled. Hundreds on Hand. Several hundred complete airplanes are kept on hand in the boxes in which they come from the factory, and these must also be opened at regular intervals, taken out and gone over completely. In another part of the warehouse is an assortment of tools that probably surpasses in size and value any in the Southwest. Its value runs into millions of dollars. Every tool that will ever be needed in the air service is in the supply section. Spare parts stored in another part of the warehouse represent another huge fortune. This material goes to supply all the tools needed in the air service, and in addition, Panama, Philippine Islands, Hawaii and formerly the air forces in the army of occupation in Germany. The engineering branch is charged with the repair of airplanes used by the air service in the Eighth corps area and in flying fields as far east as Florida. It is divided into several departments. There is the machine shop, one of the most complete in the country. Then comes the motor repair, fuselage construction, rigging, fabric and upholstery, paint shop, assembly hangar and the test hangar. Airplanes are built from the ground up at the engineering branch, but for the most part they take the old ones that are turned in by the various fields and rebuild them. Expert civilian mechanics are employed to do this work. Raw materials are kept on hand for wing and body construction, and whenever a spare part is needed that is not on hand it can be turned out in the shop. Wings, rudders and elevators are constructed in the shops. After the framework is completed it is taken to the fabric shop, where linen cloth is stretched over and nailed down, and then it is painted. The engineering branch was moved to San Antonio several months ago from Dallas, and took the buildings by a new building of mechanics school. Maj. William H. Garrison is in command of both branches of the depot. The monthly pay roll at the depot approximates $40,000, and, there are about 400 civilians employed as mechanics in addition to the 12 officers. The supply branch is in charge of Leut. Myron R. Wood and the engineering branch is in charge of Capt. Edward Laughlin. THREE PRINCESSES SEEK JOB 1,600 Replies Received to American Woman's "Ad" for Secretary in Geneva. Geneva.—Indication of the straits of many European noble women after the war is given in the experience of the American wife of a Geneva banker who advertised recently in a Munich newspaper for an educated woman secretary with a good knowledge of languages, and offered a salary of 800 Swiss francs monthly, in addition to a comfortable home. Thus far she has received more than 1,000 letters from all parts of Germany and Austria. The applicants include three princesses, nine baronesses and thirty countesses, but the majority are widows or daughters of former high officials.

FARMER FLEES FROM "IMPS" Tale of Tricks of Evil Spirits Excites People of Nova Scotian Community. Halifax, N. S.-While no broomstick riding hats of the traditional witch features have been seen hurting across the face of the moon, there are any number of people in Nova Scotia who will take an oath that impels no good intent are peopling the fair hills of Antigonish county. Alexander MacDonald, a farmer, has boarded up his valley home and fled with his family and chattels in the dead of winter. His neighbors say they have seen with their own eyes, and without the assistance of potible spirits, the manifestations of the Evil One. So much credence is being given to the tales of witches and impets that Halifax newspaper has assigned a member of its staff to break his way through the hills in snow until he reaches the MacDonald house and live there for two weeks. MacDonald and his family awoke one morning three weeks ago to find that their horses had been driven into a lather and returned to their stalls before dawn. The cattle had been turned out of the barns in a driving snowstorm. The tails of the helfers had been braided. This was repeated the next morning and the next. The third night, MacDonald says, the fire imps appeared. In unexpected places jets of flame would break out for no apparent reason. The following nights he called neighbors to see for themselves. They swore that they saw fires leap from bare floors and subside, or flare up from a fireless stove and disappear. In each case a bit of absorbent cotton or highly inflammable calco was found near the source of the fire, but that only deepened the mystery. Where had the cotton and calco come from? After a week MacDonald and his family fed, taking up their home in Caledonia Mills. INTERNATIONAL Meaning policewomen or course.

In Heard at All Hours of the Night, but is Never Seen—Carries Off Two Sacks of Flour and 50 Pounds of Sugar. Waukegan, Ill. — Although four neighbors, armed with shotguns, maintain night at the home of Mrs. Catherine Milkhorn, a hungry ghost, who has domiciled himself there, continues to be heard but not seen. Except on Mondays. He has Mondays off. They've heard him at all hours of the night. And occasionally he has made his presence felt in other ways. For example, Michael Dezoma, a cigar manufacturer, tells how: "One Friday morning at 3 o'clock there was a funny noise at the door. The room was in darkness. I was striking a match to light a cigar. The door few open, the match was blown out, and a hand grabbed me by the neck, choked me, and then hit me on the nose. I called to Jack Schlosser, the teamster, but the hand disappeared before we turned on the lights. I'm a brave man, but it made me nervous." The ghost has taking ways. He took two sacks of flour and 50 pounds of sugar. And the other night Mrs. Milkhorn heard him when he made a noise like target practice. When the vigilante squad arrived there the remnant of the winter's supply of coal was tossed all about the place. And Daniel, her eldest boy, dreamed the ghost walked into his bedroom one night and said: "Hello, kid." Daniel awoke the next morning to find his bed had been moved from one side of the room to the other. "It all got my goat so," said Jerry Womka, who used to live above Mrs. Milakowich, "that I moved. We couldn't sleep or any other. The ghost to carry on at all hours of the night." The shotgun squad now maintaining vigil comprises Antonio Carrison, Waukegan cobbler; James Shanes, George Mastron and Sam Surlas. They do not, they aver, believe in spooks. Still, they never separate during the wee sma'. First information of the ghost was made public when Mrs. Milakowich appealed for protection to Father Joseph Lauerman, pastor of St. Joseph's church, of which she is a member. He cut one of house- and home," said Mrs. Milakowich, who is a widow. "I don't know who he is, but he can't be my husband's ghost. My husband never had an appetite like that."

Scene of Recent Encounter Between Indian Police and Mob of 10,000 Natives is Described by Geographic Society. Washington—One recent encounter between British Indian police and a mob of 10,000 natives was not "played up" in American newspaper headlines. The name of the town where the disturbances occurred was—Truvannamallal. "This town is one of the chief pilgrim centers of South India but is little visited by Europeans," explains a billboard from the Wearal Geographic quarters of the Washington geographic society. "This ostracism is not because the occidental cannot pronounce the name to ask his way, as one wag suggests. Truvannamallal has 40 large chtrams, or rest houses, while the only provision for the foreigner is a small bungalow of two rooms. "Two great festivals every year and a fair every Tuesday assure the gathering numbers of natives," the bulletin continues. "During the Kartargal festival in November or December, 100,000 pilgrims visit the fierely carved temple or climb the Holy Fire Hill which gives the name to the area such times cholera frequently takes a heavy toll and for many years attempts have been made to improve the water supply. A Cross Roads of Religion and Trade. "Four roads meet at Tiruvannamalal, three of them crossing the alluvial plain toward the north, south and east. The fourth road carries a heavy traffic over the Chengam Pass into the Salem district. Thus the town is not only a famous religious center but an important entrepot of trade as well. "South Arcot, the district in which Tiruvannamalal is found, sweeps up from the harbortess Coromandel coast on the Bay of Bengal to the Eastern Sea, where it falls the line between the plain and the platan, which drives south like a wedge from the Deccan and splits Madras Presidency into two widely dissimilar regions. Great expanses of reserved forests cloth these hills and the sandalwood and teak ground there form some of the most important assets of the region. Leopards, small bears, deer and wild hogs abound and there are several favorite shooting grounds near at hand. When the Sun Went Out. "But the main interest in Tiruvannamalal is the fire festival, whose inception recalls one of the famous legends connected with Hindu mythology. Many ages ago, the legend runs, the deer and his horse, and his Karvati were even hunted by Kakati the Hindu paradise. It was the twilight hour and the flower garden in which they strolled was filled with the seductive perfumes of the East. In a flirtatious moment Parvati playfully covered the eyes of her lord with her shapely hands and drew the godly head to her bosom. "The time quickly passed for these two wanderers in Elysium. But what seemed but a moment to them was a period of many years for the hapless inhabitants of the world whose sun and moon had thus been darkened. When Siva realized the hardship which his wife's coquetry had caused, he sent her forth to do penance at the various holy places with which the southern portion of India is dotted. When she at last reached Tiruvannamallal, the famous 'Holy Fire Hill' of South Arcot district, Siva appeared to the isolated peak, as a sign that his wife's thoughtlessness was forgiven. "At the foot of the hill, just outside the chief town of the region, lies the fine temple of Tiruvannamallal. It is to this place that the pilgrims flock on the occasion of the festival which commemorates the recondition of their chief god and goddess. The culminating feature of the celebration is the lighting by the priests of a beacon fire on the summit of the hill, which can be seen for many miles throughout the district. Camphor and Butter Feed Beacon. "So heavy is the rush of pilgrims to see the blaze on the summit that strict police control is needed throughout the 48 hours that the fire usually burns, and the cleared butter or ghee, brought as offerings by the pilgrims, make up a large part of the fuel. The festival, which lasts for ten days, ends with this sacrificial fire which commemorates the forgiveness of Parvati by Siva and the return of light to a darkened world. "The large Siva temple is among the most interesting in South India, for from the slopes of the sacred mountain, which blushes red with the coming of the morning typical Dravidian temple and see how, with the increasing wealth of the shrine, successive courts were added around the central mandapam. The outer wall, embellished by four large gopurams or entrance-gateways, is most impressive of all. These gopurams, or gopura, which somewhat correspond to the pylons of the Egyptian temples, are in themselves books of mythology. The thousands of figures on their sloping sides picture scenes from Hindu mythology." A. Q. ADAMS, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER ST. PAUL OFFICE No. 301-2 Court Block, 24 E. 4th st. J. Q. ADAMS, Manager.

WHILE ROME BURNS While daily reports of lynchings and mob violence continue to be recorded, while organized lawlessness grows more sinister, even more arrogant, while human lives are wantonly destroyed, the senate filibusters on a measure designed to check lynching. It is of little consequence to the Democratic bloc that Mexico is protesting the lynching of one of her subjects in Texas; it is of little consequence to them that the virus of mob violence has spread from the South of the North from the hanging of blacks to the persecution of whites, from the killing of men to the degradation of women; it is of little consequence to them that the enlightened peoples of the world openly sneer at America's professions of humanity; it is of no consequence to them that men and women are horribly and inhumanly done to death within the continental limits of the United States. The only thing that matters is that the measure is "admittedly political" in character. It must be blocked, therefore, at any cost. One of these bloody days the senators, as well as a good man other white people will realize that in his fight to wipe out lynching the colored people is but helping the white men to save himself. DISGRIMINATION There is humor, of a sort, in the spectacle of Senator Heflin, of Alabama, raging about discrimination in the galleries of the senate chamber. A wounded colored soldier interrupted the debate with a question. He was put out of the gallery, but was allowed to return. The senator claims that white persons have been kept out for a similar offense, and heatedly charges discrimination. This charge, coming from the senator from Alabama, is unfortunate, to say the least, and his choice of words is even more tactless. The word discrimination does not ride well on the tongue of the representative of arch-discriminators. Before the various humillating, unfair, and even fliendish THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the countenance the hearts of friend I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. color discrimination practised in Alabama, this trifling incident pales into insignificance. As long as Alabama remains as it is, the senator's oratorical flights on discrimination will serve merely to establish him more firmly as a ludicrously short sighted, color blind legislator. JAPANESE AND AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP The recent decision of the United States Supreme Court, adverse to the citizenship claims of three Japanese, is welcome, in that it brings a ruling, final of course beyond appeal under the present law, in a matter which has been not only perplexing of itself, but also complicated by various rulings from different lower courts. However, unless understood in its essential intent, this judgment may be productive of international ill-feeling. It should be recognized clearly that a hardship is thus imposed upon an estimable people—a people who, measured by any qualitative standard, constitute one of the great powers of the globe—for no reason saving that the existing law may carry out a determination of the Americans in favor of what is only to be seen as radical self-defense. The statute now interpreted as denying legal citizenship to Japanese is not based upon a feeling that white men in general, or white Americans in particular, are superior to Japanese or yellow men, or that Oriental culture is inferior to Occidental. It is founded, partly, in the desire of industrial competition, and, yet more, in the desire that, so far as possible, the United States be maintained a white man's country. The decision does not cover Japanese who by reason of their birth in "the States" automatically become citizens, and in this particular falls short of court custom in Australia, South Africa, and British Columbia. It is futile (though interesting) to surmise what may have been the original intent in drafting the law as it now reads in Section 2196 of the Naturalization Act of June, 1906. The ruling stands that the statute, being affirmative in its application to the white and Negro races, does not encompass other people. If the "white," used in Justice Sutherland's sentences, is to be taken as "Caucasian," and if, therefore, Mongolians are debarred as such, the decision is of far-reaching moment, indeed. Both Finns and Hungarian Magyars have been freely naturalized by American courts, yet they are purer Mongols than the Japanese. On the other hand, Moroccan and Abyssinians and Arabs are Caucasian, albeit not pure white. It would seem wholly pertinent for the Congress at Washington to enact a new law, based on qualifications broader and juster than mere racial traits. It should be self-evident that any person of any race who is permitted to reside in a country for a lifetime, making a living there and there enjoying the national institutions, ought to be given the right to become—some would put is, ought to be compelled to become—a legal citizen, that he might protect and cherish those institutions as native-born citizens are obliged to do. Nor would such action in any way imply unrestricted immigration from any part of the world: that is a separate question. It is a matter deserving of attention not only as involving justice, but precaution, too. There is a tendency to ignore questions where discussion might awaken ill-feeling, yet (if the THE SIN OF To sin by silence protest makes co The human race ha test. Had no voice injustice, ignorance quisition yet would To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest.

Hylan Calls on Police To Drive Out Ku Klux New York, Nov. (Crusader Service) Following the opening of Ku Klux Klan headquarters in this city by the Rev. Mr. Oscar Haywood of Calvary and the Suffragette sued instructions to his commissioner of police, Richard Enright, to drive the Klan out of New York City. Mayor Hylan's letter to his commissioner of police follows: "We are a secret organization of similar character and purpose, is a menace to our city, state and nation. The people of the city of New York will not tolerate their existence within the confines of our city. We are a man turned to ferret out these despicable disloyal persons who are attempting to organize a society, the aims and purposes of which are of such a character that were they to prevail, the fate of our country would be destroyed. "I noticed in yesterday morning's World that Rev. Dr. John Reach Stratton and Rev. Oscar Hawyd Wood, St. Mary Baptist church, are alleged to have given Rev. Dr. John Reach with this secret organization. If this is so, a little police attention along this line would not be out of order. "Go after the Ku Klux Klan and not let them get a foothold in New York. Do not let them get the men of the cloth, regardless of their denomination, would have anything to do with an organization whose purpose is as vile as that of the Ku Klux Klan.

(Crusader Service) Open warfare on the Ku Klux Klan by the Independent Order of Brith Abraham, with a membership of 200,000 throughout the United States was declared last night by Judge Aaron J. Levy, Grandmaster of the organization and presiding justice of the municipal court of the City of New York. Judge Judge Levy said he hoped to enlist other Jewish fraternal organizations in a fight on the Ku Klux and eventually he suggested that Jewish and all other fraternal bodies opened the church, which will be merged into one big organization to rage relentless warfare on the Klan. His decision to ask the Independent Order of Brith Abraham to help in making an end of the Klan was reached after reading newspaper accounts of how school children were being used to propagate the viscious doctrines of the Klan and distribute Killers killed throughout the city. Circuits distribute information to the medium of these school children contained an appeal designed to engender hatred of the foreign-born and the Negro.

ANTI-LYNCHING CRUSADERS EXECUTIVE MEETING The executive committee - of the Anti-Lynchism Crushers held their third meeting in New York with five states represented. The chairman, Mrs. M. B. Talbert, noted that the movement was splendidly started with forty-two women in 25 states hard at work. Ultimate success seemed assured. The committee made the following statement in answer to many inquiries : A.—The movement owes its origin to Mrs. Helen Curtis who was inspired by a public statement of Congressman L. C. Dyer, made at the annual conference of the N. A. A. C. P. in 1922, in which he said: "1.000,000 people in the demand from the Senate that the Dyer Bill be passed, there would be no question of its passage." A small committee met immediately and organized a campaign. B.—The committee does not believe in duplicating organizations. We have enough and more organizations alive for all the work there is to do. When we concentrate effort for specific objects, the committee, therefore, is organized to raise money for one object and then to disband January 1, 1923. C.—The one object of the Anti-Lynching Crusaders is to stop lynching and mob violence. There is no division of opinion on the imperative need of this among decent people, black and white. D.—The one clear and practical program of this initiative is the accomplishment of this end is to the N. A. A. C. P., viz, to pass the Dyer Bill and enforce it. Whether or not we accept the whole program of the N. A. A. C. P. we have yet to meet a single intelligent person of any race who does not accept and enlist the anti-lynching program. Moreover, we have no monies handled by the N. A. A. C. P. we honestly administered and publicity accounted for. E.—The Anti-Lynching Crusaders have, therefore, determined to raise $1,000,000 or as much thereof as possible by January 1st and to turn this money to the Anti-Lynching fund of the N. A. G. F. in trust to be used to pass and enforce the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and to put down mob violence. F.—Some have doubted if such a sum is necessary. It is; and we have asked the executive office of the N. A. G. F. outline roughly how it could be effectively and economically expended. The statement follows: An anti-lynching program demands: 1. Publicity. 2. Pressure upon Congress. 3. Pressure upon state legislatures. 1. Publicity: The Negro has never given his cause proper publicity. We propose, if we can obtain the funds, a campaign of newspaper publicity patterned after the Red Cross campaigns. A campaign where full participation of the facts concerning lynching shall appear in every influential daily newspaper throughout the United States, and that this shall be repeated two, three or more times until not a single newspaper or daily paper shall be ignorant of that we are the only country that burns human beings at the stake; that 3,436 people have been lynched from 1888 to January 1, 1922, and that rape is not the primary cause of lynching; that a campaign could be started for $10,000, would, to be complete, cost $1,000,000. 2. Pressure upon Congress: The country must be aroused by letters, telegraphs and articles to pour in upon the Senate a stream of requests for immediate action. Such a campaign cannot be completely inaugurated for less than $25,000. 3. Pressure upon state legislatures. Our efforts to strengthen state laws must not for a moment lag. Three or four states have adequate anti-lynching laws. Campaigns be inaugurated to secure the passage of these laws. This should cost from $10,000 to $100,000. Moreover, if the Dyer Bill fails of passage before March 1, the present bill must be reintroduced in the next Congress. If the Dyer Bill fails of passage before March 1, the campaign against lynching, mob violence and legal defense has just begun and we must immediately be ready for two things: 4. Ingestion of every case of lynching and mob violence which occurs. These investigations must be made public for on them we must be able to build court cases with facts and witnesses. This will mean the use of detective agencies, local investigators, documentary research, etc. It is safe to say that in the next few years from 2015 to 2020 we will be rich and economically spent on such investigations. 5. Legal processes: Finally, there are the actual law cases. The Federal Government will probably attend to the actual prosecutions, but we must stand ready to help in the preparation of witnesses, and the stimulation of the interest of public minds. From $100,000 to $250,000 is a small estimate of the cost of preparing such cases. This means that not less than $10,000 may be needed moment for the anti-lynching campaign and that it will take at least $1,000,000 to lynching and mob violence in the United States and provide legal defense. These figures may seem large. They are not large, but they are important ideas of the cost of emancipation have always been too small. G—The Executive Committee of the Anti-Lynchman Crusades accepts this program and will seek earnestly to raise the necessary funds. In the raising of these funds, no salaries are being paid, and no commissions of any sort. The work of the Crusaders, both officers and others, is entirely out of the control of any way. Only actual expenses are being met and these are being met by funds raised outside of money contributed to the anti-lynchman fund. Every cent of every dollar contributed to the anti-lynchman fund is to be held in trust by the Guaranty City to be turned over as directed. MRS. MARY B. TALBERT, National Director.

ROBERSON, EDITOR, DIES' Author and City Editor For Age-Dispatch Dies Writer for Associated Press, Founder Western Writers' Association, Succumbs to Pneumonia After scarcely a month's illness, Y. Andrew Robinson, city editor of the New Age Dispatch, author of the serial "Ashes" now running in that paper, and the article appearing for the time in Leslie's Weekly and later in The New York Line Within a Color Line," that flooded the offices of Leslie's Weekly with letters of commendation and condemnation, as well as inquiries concerning the identity of the author, is dead. Mr. Robertson was taken suddenly 11 October 24, 1922, with what three doctors pronounced pneumonia, and grew steadily worse, at no time showing favorable reaction to treatment. A desperate fight to save the life of the young author was made by his friend Richard Stovall, and the two specialists who whom he consulted early in the illness. Most persons are surprised to know that Y. Andrew Roberson was only 25 years old, celebrating his twenty-fifth birthday in Los Angeles. He was a native of Alexandria, La., many of his stories both white and black, are known as romantic old state. Death coming just when it did interrupted many plans of the aspiring author. He leaves uncompleted an Ethiopian novel entitled "Rhoda, Princess of Dawn." This story was not to have been a light novel, but as a superficially written serious novel he was truly credited truly the life of the Ethiopian when Ethiopia was a great kingdom, a thing concerning which little is known. And in order to acquaint himself with the life and customs of Y. Roberson had been studying careful accounts of the kingdoms accounts of ancient Ethiopia, Egypt, and the surrounding kingdoms. He had at the time of his death compiled enough data to complete his story and had written the first two chapters, which are strong enough and vivid enough to justify the claim that with the work he would claim the Spingarn Medal for 1923. Mr. Roberson's mother died when he was eighteen years old, leaving him without parents, his father having died when he was a baby. He is survived by one close relative, a grandfather, George Jackson, who is now in Los Angeles, having tried to reach the bedside of his grandson before he passed away, and arriving to that he had spent his last hours among newly-made friends and strangers. Church and Klan Going Hand in Hand Ku Kluxism Invading White Christian Pulpit—Donations Win Ministerial Support. "FIERY CROSS" LEADS WAY Protestants Rallying to Klan's Slogan of "White Supremacy." New York, Klux (Crusader service) the Ku Klux Klan is conducting an intensive membership drive in this city and so far has enlisted the services of several ministers, among them the Rev. William Burd, Metho- tonian minister, and the Rev. James Incriney, Ps. I. This minister is white Christianity and traitor to Christ admitted to reporters in the Statem Island edifice that he had preached Klanism in Bible classes. In his talk to the Bible classes the minister pronounced the Klan a patriotic and moral institution of principles, and stated that one of its cardinal principles was the unswerving conviction that the white race should be forever supreme in America. This portion of the Klan Kneel, he explained, was to meet conditions in some parts of the South where the colored race is in the majority. Concurring with the teachings of the Klan, he declared this to be the white man's land, and for the best interests of civilization (sysphilization?) and society white supremacy should prevail. At another church in New York, Klan circuaries were distributed following collection at the morning service. At this church, however, the minister denied knowledge of the incident, apparently angry over the incident. At the Calvary Baptist church, of which the Rev. John Roach Straton, a vaudevillian reactionary is pastor, dodgers were given out with the church calendars. These dodgers carried invitations to become Klan members, and a written write at no. N. T.

Beware of dramatizing religion, without you wish to cut the heart out of it. The non-discussion of differences will help a good deal toward dodging the divorce courts. There is plenty of repenting for those who in thought or word or deed or neglect have sinned and come short of the glory of God. During flush times read the forty-first of Genesis, and prepare for the worst. Just what kind of a fish it was that swallowed Jonah may not matter so much, the human shark is the "fish" to be wary of. Critising the church and the ministry and other Christians harms the one who does it, and the organizations which he represents, and the organizations under whose courtesies he is speaking. It is whose request that the faults of the Church and of the ministry and of other Christians be treated with silent and prayerful solemn well-designed things to conduct. To be so dressel. To be impression of a proper regard for God and man and for one's self is to be well dressed. To use such language as will give the impression of proper regard for God and man and for yourself, and to use it according to the grammar and the dictionary is to use good language. Knocking reacts on the knocker. Knocking is negative self-praise. Knocking is negative self-knocker is better than the one he is knocking and that is assuming a good deal. Knocking is like a kicking gun. The kick is probably worse than the shot, and the knocker gets the worst of it. There are two sides to every proposition, and one side modifies the other. When we get both sides properly modified we see the second near the middle, and the middle is the biggest part of the proposition, and the safest place. JUDGE C. C. HAUPT Judge of Ramsey County District Court Who Died Yesterday. Although encouraging progress has been made, the tardiness of the plumber and the sash and door factory prevented the completion of our temporary basement this week and our entrance into it for worship, as we had expected. Our sub-basement, or furnace room, is a very desirable feature. Our offering last Sunday was $180. Our Thanksgiving service and dinner were wholesome and happy affairs. In June, 1917, twenty-three year old Charles R. Kinford gave up his job as auto salesman to enlist as private in the Marine Corps. While overseas and during an enforced march, pain suddenly developed in both knees so that in a few hours he was unable to walk. These sudden attacks of pain occurred intermittently while he was in the service and have continued since his discharge. As he could not manage a car with stiff and swollen knees, he was declared to have a vocational handicap and entitled to Section II training by the U. S. Veterans' Bureau. Since Binford had only a fifth grade education, the Rehabilitation experts had difficulty in selecting a suitable vocation for him, but finally decided to give him a practical school course in electricity, to be followed by training on the job. However, the young man asked to be given his training with a lumber company in Northern Minnesota, to be trained to install electrical plant. He was placed with his company for a ninety-day course as an electrician's helper and proved himself such a capable worker that at the end of three months he was given a regular job at six dollars a day. Moreover, he now stands a good chance for rapid advancement from helper to electrician. The case of Binford is cited by the U. S. Veterans' Bureau as an illustration of just what a disabled veteran, handicapped and hampered, can do when opportunity is offered and he is at the same time determined to overcome obstacles that fate has thrown in his path.

Men Enlisting Now in Army Can Get Government Insurea The Veterans' Bureau frequently receives requests for information concerning the rights of men who are now enlisting or re-enlisting with regard to their privileges under the War Risk Insurance Act. C. D. Hibbard, Manager District No. 0, U. S. Veterans' Bureau, has issued statement covering the regulations governing applications for government insurance. The statement says: "Any person enlisting or re-enlisting in the military service has the privilege of applying for Government Insurance without further medical examination, providing application is made within 120 days after enlistment. Government insurance is granted in amounts from one thousand to ten thousand dollars, in multiples of five hundred. If a person, at the expiration of his term of service has a policy in force, on re-enlistment it may be made any further application, as the government contract can be kept in force by reauthorizing payment of premiums by deductions from pay or requesting a new allotment." The statement further shows that a daily increasing number of former veterans now in civilian life are realizing the value of Government life insurance and are taking advantage of the liberal reinstatement regulations by renewing the insurance they contracted. If the veteran is in as good health as he was at the time of his discharge, he can reinstate his War Term insurance in full by the payment of only two back premiums. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS? In connection with the opening of the fifteenth annual sale of Christmas seals, which starts November 22, officials of the Minnesota Public Health association call our attention to the enormous drop in the death rate from tuberculosis. Had the death rate of ten years ago continued, 972 people who are now living would have died this year from tuberculosis. The statement follows: The death rate in 1921 from tuberculosis was lower than it has ever been in the history of the state. In 1911, 119 people out of every 100,000 died of tuberculosis. As compared with 1911, ten years ago, Minnesota is saving 972 lives a year. UP TO DATE. In 1920, 90 people out of every 100,000 and in 1921, 77 people out of every 100,000 died, a saving in 1921 as compared with 1920 of 276 lives.

Veterans' Bureau, C. D. Hibbard, District Manager, Minneapolis. Minn., is now training over two thousand disabled veterans in inpatient care where they receive intensive practice in training two hundred trades and industries. However, to understand an industry thoroughly, some theoretical training is also necessary. Such men as desire it are, therefore, given additional training through correspondence courses, doing their studying evenings, after the day's work is done. Three hundred and thirty-five men are taking correspondence courses along seventy-six different lines, supplementary to their regular training and achieving some fine results. A few of the courses selected at random are law, sheet metal drafting, auto electrics, traffic management, salesmanship, mechanical engineering, farm management, and banking and finance. As a concrete example of the benefits received from this type of training, is the case of a young man taking auto electrics in placement training in Grand Forks, N. D., who took a correspondence course to give him additional technical training necessary to understand the starting, lighting and ignition systems of cars. He made unusual progress, so that when he was rehabilitated a firm immediately placed him upon the payroll at thirty-five dollars per week, as service manager. This was a great increase over his pre-war salary. Mother used to hurry through with the evening dishes so she could have a long pleasant evening of reading with the family. Now she "stacks" the dishes until morning so she won't be late to the movies. CITATION ON PETITION TO SELL LANDS.
