The Appeal

VOL. 39 NO 7 IMPERIAL GIANT REVEALS GARVEY VISIT TO KLAN Edward Young Clark Tells Grand Jury of Conference With U. N. I. A. Head GARVEY DENIES ALLIANGE Federal Case Against Black Star Line Is Postponed to February 26 New York, Feb. 16.—(Crusader Service)—Edward Young Clarke, Imperial Giant of the Ku Klux Klan, appeared before the Federal grand jury here yesterday, having been subpoenaed from Atlanta ten days ago in connection with the proceedings of the Government against Marcus Garvey, president of the defunct "Black Star Line." President of the Negro Factories Corporation, self-elected "Provisional President of Africa" all self-appointed "Negro Mosso." Clarke was examined by Assistant United States Attorney Mattuck on Garvey's visit to Clarke in Atlanta last June, when the latter was Acting Imperial Wizard of the Klan. Garvey had denied alliance After the visit Garvey denied his purpose was to affect an alliance with the Klan. The investigation of Garvey's affairs had disclosed that the conference was in connection with Garvey's Black Star steamship line and the Universal Negro Improvement Association, of which he is President General. After appearing before the grand jury, Clarke promised to send to Mr. Mattuck any papers he might have in Atlanta that would throw light on Garvey's visit. Garvey's trial on an indictment charging him with having used the mails to defraud investors in stock of the Black Star Line, scheduled to begin yesterday, was postponed until Feb. 26. After Garvey returned from Atlanta he addressed a crowd of his followers in Harlem and advised them not to waste their time fighting the Klan, as it called for an America for the white man, but to go back to Africa, the land of the black man. Garvey was hotly denounced in press and pulpit and was quietly put on the defence: "Known to weave and influence and intention of the Klan I interviewed the executive for the purpose of getting them, if possible, to adopt a different attitude toward the race I represent, and thus prevent a replition in many ways of what happened during the days of reconstruction." was the way he explained his conference. Spread Disension in Klan. Again in August Garvey denied that there was any relation between the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Klan. At that time he said he talked with Dr. Evans besides Clarke in Atlanta, and Clarke told him the Klan was much more in favor of the colored man as an American citizen than of the foreign white element. Garvey claimed ignorance of the Klan's widely advertised intentions towards the race and stated the conversation was for the purpose of placing him in a better position to interpret the Klan's attitude toward the colored man, and denied any alliance was formed. At the same time James L. Beavers, Chief of Police in Atlanta, who was running for Mayor, quoted Clarke as saying in an interview that the effected alliance had spread disension in the ranks of the Klan. GARVEY ENTERPRISES CONTINUE TO SLIDE New York, Feb. 16—Crusader Service)—Following fast on the trail of the Universal Laundry, the Universal Doll Factory and the Universal Tailoring establishment, founded by Marcus Garvey, and conducted by the Negro Factories Corporation, was evicted from 2305 Seventh Avenue for failure to pay several months rent. Fortunately for Harlem, many monuments of independent and ably managed colored enterprises, such as Harts' huge department store, stand out in creditable contrast to the much advertised but insignificant hole-in-the-wall businesses of the "provisional president of Africa" and self-styled Moses of the race. COLORED WORLD REVOLT CONTINUES TO SPREAD Mosul, Iraq, Feb. 9.—(Crusader Service)—A revolt has broken out here against the British and considerable property damage has been done. The Kurds have attacked King Feisel's Arab troops who are friendly to the British and these have been forced to withdraw from the district. New York, Feb. 9.—The significance of the Mosul uprising applies directly to the dispute between Turkey and England as to who shall own this oil field, whose rule is desired by the majority of the inhabitants or England who desires to exploit the rich oil deposits. THE APPEAL. Woman Dies In Leap From Tenement Blaze New York, Feb. 16—Mrs. Olara Wilkinson, 27, was killed yesterday, three other colored women and four white firemen were hurt in a blaze which swept swiftly through a four-story lodging house at 130 West 53 street with whirlwind velocity. Flames and smoke pinned six occupants against windows, from which three jumped and were hurt and two were rescued by firemen. The sixth, a woman, remained astride a window until the flames had been put out. Next, three firemen dogs in the New York Canine Infirmary, were thrown into a panic by the smoke. About three o'clock yesterday afterearmoon, Mrs. Southerland, struck a match to light a gas stove, but she brought the flame too near a curtain. In a moment this had blazed up, and the flame had spread to other objects. The aged woman tried vainly to put out the fire, and then ran screaming out of the building. Mrs. Moran described the rescue of Florine Perry from a wreck above her. As the flames raced the window, Fireman Edward Dornself of Truck No. 2, held by his legs from the roof by Lieutenant Robert Jackson and Fireman John Tucker of the same company, reached into the fourth story window and caught the young woman and his comrades pulled him again to the roof. The damage was estimated at $10, 000. CIVILIZATION OF WEST CRUMBLING English Professor Paints Dark Picture of Future of White Race. London, Feb. 9.—(Crusader Service)—Modern civilization is falling in ruins, in the belief of Professor Graham Wallas, British classical scholar and economist lecturer at London University and the latest of the intellectuals to cast a gloomy picture of civilization's future. Fifteen hundred years ago, says Wallas, ancient civilization was visibly falling in ruin. Today history is repeating itself. "Alaric had just sacked Rome; Atilla was a boy of 17, dreaming of still worse disasters that he was to inflict upon the western world, and the vandals were pressing on toward the destruction of civilization in north Africa," Wallas said in speaking of the year 423. "All the structure of government on which the ancient world as organized by Rome had depended, had come to an end. Roman law was no longer valid. All habits, all loyalties, all ideals, all philosophies, all religions of the ancient world were passing away." And then Professor Wallas flicked through the ages and brought up a sharp halt on the threshold of 1923. "In 1923, he declared, a 'problem of more than equal magnitude in before us. The material world—the world that slowly and painfully created itself upon the fragments of Roman civilization—is falling in ruins." "Right across, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, right across the great Eurasian continent, the old system has fallen in ruins, and the danger we have to face is greater and more intense than the danger with which the world was confronted at the fall of ancient civilization." For one reason, the danger is greater today, according to Professor Wallas, because our social system is definitely more complex. Judge Fines White Men Who Refused To Sit On Mixed Jury Beckly, W. Va., Feb. 16—(Crusader Service)—Fines of $25 were imposed upon Charles Pack and John Beckner, of this place, following their refusal to sit upon a mixed jury. During the trial of Thomas Harris, charged with selling moonshine, Pack and Harris were impanelled, but when they were called, declared they would not sit in the case because a colored man had been called into the jury box. The court then excused them and took the matter under advisement. On the following day the two men were called before the court and were fined $25 each for contempt. It is the first instance of the kind known in this state. SIKI TO REGAIN GOOD STANDING, SAYS LAWYER Paris. Feb. 9.—(Crusader Service)—Battline Siki is to be restored to good standing in the boxing game and reinvested with all the titles taken from him when the French Boxing Federation celebrates its twentieth anniversary next Monday. it was asserted today by Siki's attorney. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY THE ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS DENI BIDS ACCEPTED TO CONGRESS ON RACE PROBLEM Kelly Miller Willing to Co-operate With N. E. R. League and Others N. A. A. C. P. HOLDS OUT J. W. Johnson Says Association Is Planning Conference for Later Date Boston, Feb. 16—Crusader Service)—Dr. M. A. N. Shaw, president of the National Equal Rights League, reported a prompt and spirited response to the invitation sent out by his organization for a United Front Conference to achieve unity of purpose and action among the organizations fighting the colored man's battle for recognition and equality of treatment. The African Blood Brotherhood, the International Uplift League and The Negro Race Congress have promptly and cordially accepted the invitation in the spirit in which it was sent out. All of these organizations have expressed themselves as anxious to achieve a united front for the colored race in order that the fight against our enemies may be waged more effectively. N. A. A. C. P. Declines. N. A. A. C. F. Declines. Of all the organizations invited to an initial conference in New York, at which plans would be laid down for a more general call, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is the only one to decline. The National Equal Rights League, itself, because of the coincidence by which Prof. Kelly Miller issued a call for a Race Sanhedrin at alba, is the same time that the League sent out a letter to the organizations mentioned that pressed itself as willing to take in Prof. Miller in the initial conference and is at present engaged in negotiations with him. Prof. Miller, too, in his latest statement on the subject of a United Front has evinced a fine willingness to let others have a share in this important matter of advancing the interests of the colored race. In his letter of Jan. 10, to Dr. M. A. N. Shaw, declining the invitation to a conference, Secretary Johnson said: "I wish to say in reply to your letter of Dec. 29, that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People began some weeks ago drawing preliminary plans for the holding of a great conference which will embrace a larger representation than merely the several organizations engaged in the specific work of securing civil rights. We feel, however, that such a conference should be carefully planned and worked out with great thoroughness. Therefore, we are not prepared to say now just how soon we can put the work in order way. When we are ready it will be a great pleasure for us to invite the cooperation of other organizations and individuals who are interested in the question. Yours very truly, (Sgd) JAMES W. JOHNSON, Secretary." Meet in New York. From all indications, the initial conference will be called in New York City, with Prof. Miller and representatives from the National Equal Rights League, the African Blood Brotherhood, the Negro Race Congress, the International Uplift League present. At this conference plans will be worked out by the representatives of these colored organizations, whose united membership probably exceeds two hundred thousand, for the calling of a greater conference which would embrace practically all colored organizations in the United States. CONFESSES 8 MURDERS; WRONG MAN LYNCHED Waco, Texas, Feb. 16.—(Crusader Service)—Local police and the Waco National Guardsmen were being mobilized this afternoon to defend the county jail in event an attempt is made to get Roy Mitchell, colored, alleged to have confessed to eight murders. Rumors of the forming of a mob reached the authorities. Murders and attacks for which one man was shot to death and two others are in the penitentiary were said to have been confessed by Mitchell. These include the slaying of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Barker and Homer Turk, for which two colored men are now in prison. One of them Cooper Johnson, is under a death sentence. Trenton, N. J., Feb. 16—(Crusader Service) — Assemblyman Randolph, colored, of Essex County, is the author of a House concurrent resolution directing Attorney General McCarran to investigate the activities of the McCarran family. Randolph says such an organization is not needed to preserve law and order and condemn it for outraged alleged to have been committed by Klan members in the South. THE MUSEUM Mr. Walker Williams, proprietor of Williams' Recreation Parlor, 554 St. Anthony, recently purchased the flat building formerly known as the Willard Block on the corner of Kent St. and St. Anthony Avenue. The transaction was handled by Attorney W. T. Francis, and purchased from Max Resnick for $10,000. The ground floor consists of the Williams' Recreation Parlor owned by Mr. Williams and the Cosmopolitan Grocery owned and operated by Mr. J. H. Webb. The second and third floors consist of four flats, all of which are occupied. Five years ago, Mr. Williams opened the Recreation Parlor which was formerly known as the Gentleman's Resort, with a barber shop and two pool tables. His business increased so rapidly that it was necessary to make an addition to the building. The addition allowed three more pool tables to be added. Always conducting his place of business in a clean and respectable manner, where gentlemen can spend a quiet, comfortable and enjoyable evening, is the basis of Mr. Williams' success. The barber shop is open evenings until eight o'clock and until twelve o'clock Saturday evenings. The pool 'ZERO HOUR' APPROACHES WARNS WEEKLY Time Ripe for Militant Body to Fight for Rights of the Race New York, Feb. 16.—(Crusader Service)—Noting the signs of the times and the increasing of mob violence in this country, the hitherto staid and conservative Amsterdam News sounds a militant note of warning in an editorial in the issue of January 31: "The Zero Hour" Approaches. The year 1923 finds the colored man still seeking a place of safety, as in the case of residents of Blanford, the same state in which Lacy died, who were compelled to quit their homes, following the failure of the authorities to find a man alleged to have attacked an eleven-year-old girl, as reported in last week's news. "When the Zero Hour approached," ran the despatch, "the last of the colored people were on their way to Terre Haute and Clinton, near here. Many families did not wait for the me limit to expire, but left immediately after the warning. No attempt whatsoever was made by the authorities to protect these families in their homes or in their property. "The Zero Hour" is fast approaching and we may as well prepare for it. In New York City, in Chicago, in Georgia, wherever there are people of color, they must begin to prepare for the time when all of us will be called upon to defend our homes and our lives against mob violence. We believe that the time is ripe for an organization to be started which will help colored people quit such towns and take such steps as are necessary to enable a citizen to be secure in his home against mob violence. BRITISH FEAR CRISIS IN ARABIAN HOLY WAR Paris, Feb. 9.—(Crusader Service) —From that region of central Arabia which is unknown to white men by parlor, consisting of five perfect tables is open until 12 o'clock every evening. Mr. Williams is Deputy Grand Master of Minnesota Masons, a prominent member of St. James A. M. E. church and lives at 850 Courtland Street. reason of the fierceness of its warrior population, 300,000 Wahabites, armed with modern weapons of war galloped toward Mecca. They want the head of the puppet king whom the British are backing as Head of Islam in the effort to divide the Faithful and dissipate the strength of a United Islam. The success of the Wahabites would mean the collapse of a branch of English intrigue, for which several hundred natives have been murdered and many others thrown into jail in an effort at stern repression of Moslem repugnance to alien rulers. By setting up a new "Head of Islam" who was a mere puppet in the hands of the British, the latter had hoped to abate the menace of an united uprising of Islam's hundreds of millions of followers, from the Pacific islands across Asia and Africa to the Atlantic coast of northern Africa. There, the chancelleries of Europe are ill at ease at the failure of the British intrigue and the challenge constituted in those 300,000 Wahabites who are rushing fearlessly to meet the British forces and their puppet "Head of Islam" at Mecca, the holiest of the Holy Cities of the Mohammedan Faith. This fear of a religious or racial war in which the colored races of the world would be pitted against the now depleted and terribly weakened white race, inspired France's friendly policy toward all Mussulmans and her cultivation of the colored population of her African empire. Irving T. Nutt, President of the Camden, New Jersey Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who consistently and persistently fought school segregation in and about Camden, has been appointed a member of the Camden school by Mayor King. Mr. Nutt, according to the Camden Post-Telegraph (white), "is a well-known colored resident of the Seventh Ward and is an earnest advocate of equal rights for his race. He has been making determined efforts to have colored children sent to the schools nearest their homes, and is opposed to requiring them to travel long distances to attend schools set apart for colored children. As a member of the board, Mr. Nutt will be in a position to more vigorously press his demand for equal rights for his race." ADVERTISE IN THE APPEAL THE DEPENDABLE MEDIUM Black-Faced Robber Is Killed By Policeman Black-Faced Robber Is Killed By Policeman Kansas City, Feb. 16.—(Crusader Service)—His face smeared with charcoal and his body clothed in overalls and a jumper, Ray C. Bishop, nineteen, white, student and member of the Central high school football squad, turned bandit last night, robbed two gasoline filling stations of approximately $22 and was shot to death in a gun battle with a policeman after wounding the latter. Lawrence W. Ferguson, twenty-five, chauffeur at the Sheffield Police Station, wounded by the youth, is in the General Hospital with a bullet in his groin. He will recover. Through tear-dimmed eyes, the youth's gray-haired mother, Mrs. William H. Bishop, looked at the black smudged face of her son two hours after the tragedy. "I can't believe it is my boy," she said brokenly. "He was too good for that." The news came to Otto Duach, Principal of Central high school, as a shock. His voice grew husky as he narrated the virtues of young Bishop, whom he characterized as a "splendid type of young manhood, rugged, bashful, athletic, stoutious and loved by his companions." Yet on the desk of the Sergeant at the Sheffield police station lies a .32 calibre revolver taken from the lad's pocket, a jumper and a pair of overalls, the former stained with blood, which he wore when he fell—and $22 in bills. LETTER PROTESTS "MAMMY" STATUE Neval Thomas Says Fair Treatment Would Be Better Monument Neval H. Thomas, member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has written a letter to the Washington Evening Star, protesting against newspaper's editorial endorsement of the plan to erect a memorial to "colored mammies" of the South in the national capital. Mr. Thomas refers to the plan as a "movement having for its object to keep colored people in their former state of servitude." After pointing out that the measure is sponsored by Senator John Sharp Williams of Mississippi, he continues: "I am glad that the divine virtues appreciate the divine virtues truth and loyalty which the 'black mammy' had, and has in abundance, but it overlooks the other divine virtue that is here, a divine love for her offspring. She bore her sufferings in patience because she believed that through them America's conscience would quicken and give her children and her children's children the justice they so richly deserve. My own beloved mother was one of those unfortunate who had the flower of her youth spent in a slave cabin, and I know the heart of a slave mother, its intense longing for better things for her children. "So if the South has such deep gratitude for the virtues of this devoted group from which it reaped vast riches, let it remove the numberless barriers it has gone out of its way to throw up against the progress of the noble colored womanhood who sprang from these 'mammies.' Devoted to the monument which the 'colored manmies' have her, and not a marble shaft, which at best will be but a symbol of our servitude to remind white and black alike that the menial callings are our place in the schemes of things." Lash Is Necessary To Work Convicts, Says Georgia Prison Head Atlanta, Feb. 16. —(Crusader Service)—Convicts cannot be worked on the roads of Georgia without the lash as a means of enforcing discipline, according to the opinion of members of the state prison commission, expressed in a conference here with Governor Hardwick in regard to the abolition of whipping in the convict camps and at the state prison farm. Governor Hardwick has been urged to issue an executive order putting an end to the lash. The majority of Georgia "convicts" are colored men picked up on one fimsy charge or another. New York, Feb. 16—Crusader Service)—After he had driven an automobile upon the sidewalk and run down a four-year-old girl last evening, James Mall, 29, colored, of 525 West 147th street, was threatened by an angry crowd whose attack was staved off only by the prompt action of two men who protected him until the police arrived. $2.00 PER YEAR PROTEST CLOSING OF NEW ORLEANS COLORED SCHOOL School Board Sends Children to Other Buildings Already Overcrowded NEW BUILDING TOO GOOD White Daily Says Action Is Grave Injustice to Colored Citizenry The New Orleans Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has been fighting the closing of a local high school, erected for the use of colored students upon ground previously occupied by an old and dilapidated structure which had been torn down to make room for the new building. Two mass meetings indorsed by the fraternal, benevolent, labor, religious and civic bodies of New Orleans were held the same night, to protest against the closing of the Bayou Road School and the consequent lack of school facilities for many New Orleans colored high school children. Nevertheless the New Orleans school board on January 27, decided to close the school and to place all other colored schools on double time. This action brought about the following editorial in the New Orleans Times-Picayune of February 2, 1923: "A GRAVE INJUSTICE "The Orleans parish school board at a recent meeting voted to keep the newly completed Joseph A. Craig School closed for the remainder of the school year. At the same time a majority of its members initiated a movement looking to some sort of "reorganization" system of education for colored people and indicating an inclination to deny to colored children use of the new school building, which was built expressly for their education. The board's action is glaringly unfair and unjust, in this newspapers' opinion. We urge its reversal. We ask the fair-minded white citizens of New Orleans to consider the facts of the case and to join in the effort to insure a just and equitable handling of a situation which, in our judgment, is being grossly mishandled. Structure to Fine. "Here are the facts as we understand them. The new school replaces the old Bayou Road School, continually used for the education of colored children for some forty years—and so used without protest. The old structure became so dilapidated, so overcrowded that the school board finally decided to replace it with a new and modern and adequate building. Throughout the present school year many colored children have gone unschooled, patiently awaiting the completion of the new building. As that structure took shape and handsome proportions, neighborhood objections began to be raised against its devotion to colored education. Wisely and properly the board resisted that pressure for a time. Its constancy to its original purpose was shown when the new school was renamed in honor of a colored man who had served the cause of education many years ago. Only a little while ago it reaffirmed its position. "The sudden reversal occurred just as the building was ready for use. Closing of the school leaves the colored children in a district heavily populated with colored people without school facilities. Their transfer to other schools is talked about. That is a practical impossibility, not only because the distances to be traveled are too great in many instances, but because the other schools are already overcrowded. The board's action amounts, in effect, to denial of schooling to hundreds of colored children even while the building erected for their use stands idle. No Justification. "There is not even the color of justification that might be pleaded if white children in the district needed this new school for their own use, Superintendent Qwinn has reported that the white schools in the district, far from being overtaxed, have accommodations for more children than now are enrolled. "It therefore appears to be impossible," he concludes, "to use this building as an elementary school for white children." It is, we submit, utterly unfair to deny to colored children a school built expressly for their use, upon a site dedicated to their education without protest for forty years. So flagrant an injustice ought to provoke vigorous protest from all fair-minded folk. Permitted to stand it will constitute a grave reflection upon a community which prides itself upon its fair treatment of its colored citizenry and its case for the elementary education of the colored children." J. Q. ADAMS, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER OFFICE 302 Court Block, 24 E. 4th St. PHONE CEDAR 5649 Entered at the Postoffice in St. Paul, Minne- sota, as second-degree mail matter, June 6, 1885, under Act of Congress, March 3, 1879. TERMS STRICTLY IN ADVANCE Single Copy, One Year.....$2.00 Single Copy, Six Months.....1.00 Single Copy, Three Months......50 SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1923 THANK YOU We have always known that THE APPEAL was widely read. We have believed at times that it was carefully read, but even we in our natural optimism could not foresee the expressions of appreciation that have come to us in the past few months, and especially during the last month. They end all doubts as to the care with which the paper is read. We now know that, every little change whether it be good or bad, is being noticed. To our friends in both cities who have been so frank in their appreciation we promise that every effort will be made to give them fifty-two issues a year of the same calibre. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR From now on a column of letters to the editor will be opened in THE APPEAL. We want to hear from our readers on the questions of the day as they effect colored people. We want our readers' opinion on local matters, on national questions, on the policy of this and other papers in short, we want something else on the editorial page beside the opinion of the editors: If our readers think that a race conference is a good thing, if they think that there should be a playground in a certain district, if they think that certain types of businesses are a detriment to certain neighborhoods, if they wish to criticize their papers—then we wish to hear of it. Letters must not be over 300 words and must be signed as an evidence of good faith, although the name will not be printed if the correspondent so desires. GOING BACKWARD The people of the state of Minnesota who permit their legislators to take such a step are stamping themselves as ultra-conservative, not only unwilling to make progress, but willing to turn around and travel backward. It is argued on all sides that a life for a life is the only policy that will stop the orime wave. It is said that when a man gets murder in his heart or when he finds it necessary to shoot a bank cashier in order to escape with his loot he will think twice before he kills if he knows that a death sentence is the penalty. All this in spite of the fact that in states where the punishment is death, the rate of homicide is much greater than in Minnesota and those states where the penalty is life imprisonment. Chicago and New York City have more murders per thousand population than any of the three large cities in Minnesota. All sorts of arguments are made for capital punishment, but the only one that need be made is that it is no deterrent for crime. Capital punishment does NOT stop the taking of life. This is a matter of record. If it does not check crime we have no need of it. This new agitation for the passage of this measure seems to us nothing more than an attempt of the policing agencies of the government to "pass the buck" in the matter of checking crime. When the record of indictments by the grand juries begin to approximate the number of crimes committed, the police may well ask for more penalties. INHERITANCE FOR LLEGITI- MATE CHILDREN A great deal of discussion and protest has arisen since the introduction in the legislature of a bill which would give the right of inheritance to illegitimate children providing the paternity could be established. A mistaken impression has got abroad that the measure legalizes bigamy and opens the way for blackmall. Such is not the case. As the law now stands, a woman my claim support and inheritance if she can produce a signed statement from the father of the child. Under the proposed law she has to establish the paternity of her child in an open court within three years after its birth. At this trial the alleged father will have every opportunity to J. GEORGE WASHINGTON. "The Father of His Country" the Anniversary of Whose Birthday Will be Celebrated February 22nd. "The Father of His Country" the Anniversary of Whose Birthday Will be Celebrated February 22nd. prove his innocence. Then upon the death of a proved father of illegitimate children, the mother, providing the paternity is a matter of court record, may enter a claim for inheritance. Under this law there is less likelihood of blackmail than under the signed statement rule now in effect. If a court has established the paternity of a child, why should the child not receive a portion of the inheritance along with the legitimate children, if there be any? The child is innocent. It should not be handicapped for the mistakes of its parents. In spite of squeamish old women and outwardly spotless families, society is stepping forward with advance legislation on the subject of children. BIGGER THAN ECONOMICS (St. Paul Daily News) An American who prides himself on being a sort of super-economist got off this, recently: "You are wrong in your idea of the effect of European disorders upon American prosperity. If those European peoples go to fighting, they will produce little, certainly no surplus, and they will all have to come to America to buy the life-needs." Isn't that a glorious thought? isn't it profound economics? All we have to do is to sit still, watchfully waiting and awaiting alliances, wise justifiable, humane or othersome, and when our fellowmen get to cutting throats and starving and dying of like dies in a frost, raise our prices Harry Kikuchi, a Japanese student, represented Beloit at the oratorical contest at Waukesha, Wis., Thursday evening. His subject was, "Can we Christianize Japan?" He was followed on the program by a Milton college orator who spoke on "The Rising Tide of Color." Thus the "heathen" Jap talked for Christianity while the alleged "Christian" American puked up a lot of race prejudice vomit. ANOTHER LAP NEARER HELL A "jimcrow" hospital for "negro service veterans" was dedicated at Tuskegee on Lincoln's birthday. Of course anything "jimcrow" just naturally belongs at Tuskegee, that's Tuskegee's long suit; but think of the vice president of the United States dedicating any kind of a segregated institution for American citizens and doing it on Lincoln's birthday! Sure, it's all right, if there are to be segregated hospitals for Irish veterans, Jewish veterans, Chinese veterans, Indian veterans, et cetera, ad infinitum: if not, it's all wrong and a damnable insult to the brave colored men who were shell-shocked by the Germans and hell-shocked by their brothers—the American troops. Yes, Principal Moton was there and he grinned and said it was the greatest "achievement" since emancipation. Well that is not strange as R. R. Moton, usually says what the Southern white people wish him to say. The "negro veterans Hospital" is not a step forward. The colored people having been on the down grade so far as their rights and their status in the eyes of the other races, are concerned, and they are now another lap nearer the hell of degradation. THE RIGHTS OF THE HUMAN MEMBER FREDERICK DOUGLASS FREDERICK DOUGLASS IT IS TO LAUGH BIGGER THAN ECONOMICS (St. Paul Daily News) An American who prides himself on being a sort of super-economist got off this, recently: "You are wrong in your idea of the effect of European disorders upon American prosperity. If those European peoples go to fighting, they will produce little, certainly no surpluses, and they will all have to come to America to buy the life-necessaries." Isn't that a glorious thought? Isn't it profound economics? All we have to do is to sit still, watchfully waiting and avoiding alliances, wise, justifiable, humane or othersome, and when our fellowmen get to cutting throats and starving and dying off like flies in a frost, raise our prices and skin 'em alive! It looks very simply. It teems with prospects of American prosperity. Christian American can enjoy that prosperity—but not until she wholly forgets God Almighty! But isn't that the exact attitude of America today? What is America but a thoroughly selfish nation standing on the ocean shore expecting the awful storm to cast up rich flotsam at her feet, regardless of the corpses of men, women and children that will be washed up with the riches? Shall her schools, her churches, her colleges, her newspapers, her Washington, make no move, while the Four Horsemen mount their steeds to ride down the rest of mankind? War, Death, Famine, Pestilence, with America's soul fixed on profits? The powder and gun makers, the militarists, the money-changers may see in it only a matter of economics, but how do the American people, as a people, feel? Americans are a people of generous heart, high principle and noble aims. But they lack courageous leadership. Our government at Washington accomplishes nothing save earning a reputation for avoiding doing anything positive. It seems to take a step forward today, but crawfish tomorrow, and heaven only knows where it will be next day. The Daily News and other newspapers have presented a definite plan for an international conference, under America's leadership, for a possible change in the present horrible world status. Whatver that plan's weaknesses, note this fact well—it is a radical change from the attitude of American thought and effort in doing nothing. Let's drop our quibbles and petifogging and try to put this plan through. The Lord has blessed us as no other people on earth. While His other children kill, starve or not with pestilence by the million, let's not say to Him, "Tm not my brother's keeper!" ALL KINDS OF MOBS The United States is having a choice variety of mob rule. For more than a year there has been strong protest against the mobbing of colored men and women in the South, for real and occasionally fancied crimes. Sometimes the victims were tortured and burned to death. Then came the Herrin "massacre," in which it was claimed union men had killed and brutally tormented strikebreakers. This mob has been more generally denounced in the press and from the pulpit than any similar crime ever committed in America, and Williamson county is likely to become bankrupt in an effort to convict the guilty parties against an evident local sympathy for them. After this, another sort of mob created great excitement in Louisiana. Two men were tortured to death, and claim is made that it was done by a secret organization professing to stand for 100 per cent Americanism, because the men are alleged to "have known too much." Lastly, there is a mob of farmers, merchants and supposedly good citizens, which hang two union men, whip many others, and drive other unionists and union sympathizers from the country. The offense of the union people is alleged sabotage against a railroad, on which a strike has been in progress for sometime. In this last mob scene, public officials have been forced to resign because of sympathy with the strikers, and the governor upholds the mob—Kansas City Kansan. 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.

SORORITY ENTERTAINS AT BRILLIANT PROM SORORITY ENTERTAINS AT BRILLIANT PROM The most brilliant affair that has been given in St. Paul and Minneapolis for some time was the dansst of Eta Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority at Shelin Hall on the campus of the University of Minnesota on Saturday evening, February 10. With the exception of the cafeteria, the sorority rented the entire building for the occasion, thus affording its guests a choice of several rooms and ways in which to divert themselves. Dancing was held in the beautiful ball room, which is a reproduction of the eighteenth-Century Georgian Colonial period. The room is designed in panelling of soft French Grey and ivory, with pilasters. Cards were played in two living rooms, one of which was particularly home-like with its glowing fire. Refreshments were served in an attractive blue and bronze reception room. This charming back ground was enhanced by one of the most consistently well-dressed and well poised groups of Twin City society that has ever assembled. With the exception of Miss Rachel Gooden, treasurer, who because of *liness* was unable to attend, the sorority girls made charming hostesses, each being becomingly gowned. Miss Bella Taylor, the president was dressed in a gown of changeable, peach and gold taffeta, which was caught on one side in bourn effect with peach crepe chiffon draperies extending below the hem line. They were held in place by peach taffeta, shoulders, and gold streamers of gold. Her hair was bound with a wreath of gold rose buds and a gold 'leaves. Miss Francis Smith, vice-president, 'azzled her friends in a striking dress of orchid taffeta with insets of cru lace, the skirt of which was ourffant, drooping on the sides. Miss Katherin Tandy, secretary, was very dainty in her costume of apricot and gold. The bodice of her dress was of peach taffeta while the skirt was formed of selber lace. Her hair was tucked under a band of gold upon which apricot and blue rose buds clustered. Winsome, Miss Antoinette McCarland, the historian, wore a dress of clinging magenta satin combined with silver Spanish lace, which formed the two panels on the skirt. They hung on either side in long tracelive lines, below the skirt. All four of the girls carried out he Sorority colors in their uniform bouquets of sunset tea roses, narcissus, and fern. Mesdames William B. Tandy and Thomas R. C. Taylor were charming haperones for the occasion. From all the guests came expressions of appreciation for the delightful evening he had spent. Veterans Being Trained For Janitorial Service The practical value of the vocational training given by the U. S. Veterans' Bureau, C. D. Hibbard, District Manager, Minneapolis, is well illustrated by the case of Chester A. Lawson. When the war opened he was earning $125 a month as a blacksmith. He enlisted April 10, 1917 and served in France with the 310th Supply Train, and was discharged April 24, 1919, suffering from the deleterious effects of poison gas and astigmatism. This rendered it impossible for him to go back to his trade as a blacksmith. Because his war disabilities treated a vocational handicap, he was awarded vocational training with the employment objective of masseur. This was feasible because Mr. Lawson is a man of pleasing personality, with a high school education, and training and experience as a nurse. He was given the best possible training in the Physiotherapy Clinic of the U. S. Veterans' Hospital No. 68, with supplementary courses in the Theoomsen Hydriatic Institute and the National Institute of Cosmetology. He is prepared, therefore, in urinalysis, blood testing, heliotherapy, hydrotherapy, electro-therapy, facial massage and all the usual lines of physiotherapy. He was declared rehabilitated on November 30, 1922, after 25-months of training, and immediately started in business for himself at 114 Ninth street, South, Minneapolis, with a well equipped Physiotherapy Clinic. He is assisted by Mrs. Lawson who is a graduate nurse and masseuse. This Clinic has been a success from the start, netting Mr. Lawson over $400 per month. He has associated a physician with him and plans to open a College of Physiotherapy in Minneapolis. He already has contracts with a sufficient number of students to insure its financial success. Mr. Lawson was also recently elected President of the Minnesota State Association of Masseus and INDIANAPOLIS MAN GETS N. A. A. C. P.

WHAT BOY SCOUTS HAVE DONE The Boy Scouts of America celebrated the week of the thirteenth anniversary—February 8-15. In its brief history 2,000,000 American boys have been influenced by its program of character building and citizenship training, and have promised to follow the scout oath which is as follows: "On my honor I will do my best: "1. To do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the scout law; "2. To help other people at all times; "3. To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight." The present membership of boys and leaders is over one-half a million. The boy scout program in providing wholesome work and play for the boy in his leisure time, has proved a remarkable aid in the prevention of juvenile delinquency. A large number of universities, colleges, normal schools and theological seminaries have placed the study of scout leadership in their curricul. Grade schools are becoming interested in placing the study of the program in their work in connection with citizenship training. The boy scout movement stresses out-of-door life because it believes that to be the most helpful type of citizen, a boy must become a strong and healthy man. Summer camping has been put on an organized basis, through the efforts of the movement. Last summer 200,000 boy scouts went into camp for two weeks or more. As an aid to the boy in keeping mentally alert, the program offers merit badges for accomplishment in 61 various subjects. Scouts through the merit badge system have wonderful opportunity to choose wisely and thoughtfully their future vocation. The wholesome activity, splendid courage and skill shown by boy scouts have furnished literature for boys with high and noble themes. The movement also produces a magazine for boys that has set an excellent standard in boy reading. Many cities and towns have been receptacles of services from the boy scouts in such work as campaigns for safety first, clean-up, better health, forest fire prevention, wild-life conservation, bird protection, and similar important public interests. This service is a direct outcome of the training which emphasizes "citizenship through service." Competent first aid has been given by the scouts in countless individual cases, and in connection with many public disasters, such as the 1918 influenza epidemic, such as the 1918 flood, the Knickerbocker theater tragedy. Six hundred and three gold medals have been awarded to boy scouts who have risked their lives to save others. The scout slogan—"Do a Good Turn Daily"—has become famous throughout the country. With a half million scouts and leaders seeking daily for the opportunity to perform an act of kindness, one readily realizes the tremendous force for community welfare that lies in the boy scout training. HELPS BOY "COME BACK" The "come back" of a young Hungarian boy of a Middle-west town, broken down in body from underinjurment and in soul by harsh treatment in his home, to a condition of usefulness and happiness, contains a fine tribute to the boy scouts, for the influence of the scout program and the boys' own help, have been the main factors in accomplishing this result. Early in the summer, Louis, who had left his unhappy home was found by relief authorities living alone, in a dug-out in the side of a hill on the outskirts of the city. The boy scouts then adopted him and taught him scoutcraft. Louis occupied the scout's cabin, keeping it neat and tidy and in perfect repair. He has made exceptional progress, entering into the spirit of the organization so thoroughly that he is considered one of the best members of the troop. SCOUTS RESCUE MINERS One of the best "good turns" during the past summer of scouts from Indiana, Pa., was the part they played in a certain five hours' hard work which resulted in the rescue of two miners shut off by a cavein in a small mine near the scout camp site. SCOUTS FIND LOST MAN Middleburg (Pa.) Troop 1 hunted lost man of feeble mind for two days and nights during heavy electric storm. Located him on third day. BOY SCOUTS PROTECT TOWN When the town of Coshocton, Ohio, was recently in the grip of an epidemic of a grave disease, local boy scouts were prepared to aid their community. The Rotary and Kiwanis clubs put out printed precautionary measures and the scouts co-operated by delivering one copy of these warnings and a personal message to each home in the town. The population is 12,000; the number, of active troops is four; and the distribution was accomplished in 54 units. STOP COUGHING! VII. AERIALS AND HOW TO INSTALL THEM lead-in wire enters the building it should be of rubber insulated wire and may be brought in at the corner of a window, either by cutting a small groove or by jamming the window down until the wire fattens and is buried partly in the wood. All joints in the aerial and lead-in should be scraped bright, tightly twisted and soldered, finally being wrapped with insulating or adhesive tape or covered Fig. 10 ABRAL ATORS LEAD HA Fig. 0 Fig. 10 GUV INGULATORS ABRAL LEAD IN Fig. 9 with "spaghetti" tubing. For the best results, be sure to run your lead-in from the end of aerials towards the station which you most frequently wish to hear or towards the most distant station which you desire to pick up. Very often, this will make a vast difference in results, especially with a small receiving set. Care in following directions will insure good results. All great men agree that THRIFT paves the way to success. "Property is the fruit of labor; property is desirable, is a positive good in the world.

GArfield 1401 12 East Sixth Street, Near Wabasha CE dar 0536 One of the greatest advantages of wireless telephone receivers is that an elaborate or expensive aerial is not required. Although good sets with vacuum bulb detectors may be used with an indoor aerial, or even with a bedside or wire springs as an aerial, yet an outside aerial will always give better results. As I have already mentioned, a single wire will do as well as several, the main thing being to get the aerial long and high in order to catch waves which are not interrupted or interfered with by surrounding buildings, steel bridges, electric wires and similar objects. Next, or rather most important, is to have the aerial and lead-in thoroughly insulated from all surrounding objects, for even wood, when damp, is an excellent conductor. The best material for an amateur aerial for receiving is a stranded phosphor bronze or copper wire, about No. 14, if although solid copper wire, copper-covered steel wire or even insulated copper wire will serve your purpose. For insulators, use porcelain clents. These may be used both where the lead-in is attached to walls or other objects, and where the aerial wire is attached to the supports or guys. The accompanying figures, No. 9 and No. 10, illustrate aerials installed, the first showing the wire attached to a chimney or similar structure and to a wall; the other, an aerial which is designed for a tin or slate roof and which obviates making holes for attachment.

COMMUNITY AROUSED BY TWO MOB WHIPPINGS Albany, Ga., Feb. 16—Crusader Service)—Two whippings by mobs in the last two nights in the Baconton neighborhood in Mitchell County, sixteen miles from Albany, have aroused that community. Tuesday night a party of unmasked men called at the home of Timothy Wilson colored, and whipped his wife and children. Last night a party of white men, also unmasked, whipped Bot Davis, a white man. INCOME TAX FACTS NO. 2 In the making·of his income tax return for the year 1922, a taxpayer if single, is allowed an exemption of $1,000. A married person, or head of a family, whose net income for the year 1922 was $5,000 or less is allowed an exemption of $2,500. The exemption allowed a married person or head of a family whose net income was in excess of $5,000 is $2,000. A head of a family is a person who actually supports one or more persons living in his or her household who are closely related to him or her by blood, marriage or adoption. An additional credit of $400 is allowed for each person (other than husband or wife) dependent upon the taxpayer for chief support, if such person is under 18 years of age or incapable of self-support because mentally or physically defective. A single who whose net income for 1922 was $2,000 and who supports in his home an aged mother would have no tax to pay, but would nevertheless be required to file a return. The fact that a person's income may be non-taxable by reason of the exemptions does not nullify the requirement to file a return if his income was within the prescribed figures—$1,000 if single and $2,000 if married. The tax may be paid in full at the time of filing the return, or in four installments due on or before March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15. Rehabilitated Veteran Pre-War Earning Trebles An illustration of the versatility of the U. S. Ventersan's Bureau, under the direction of C. D. Hibbard, District Manager, Minneapolis, in finding ways to rehabilitate disabled veterans whose education or capacity for learning has been material housekeeping course being given in Minneapolis. A Janitorial School is being conducted by the Minneapolis City Schools to train men for such service in the schools and in the apartment buildings of the city. In this school has been placed, for training, a group of disabled men that have been tried out in several other lines of skilled work without being able to master any one to a degree that would make them employable. A number of these cases had been rated "training permanently not feasible." But the Veterans' Bureau believes there is no such word as impossible. It believes there is a niche in the industrial world for every man if it can be worked. The men with these skills that they attempted things too difficult for them. Practically all the disabled men in the janitorial school are highly enthusiastic over the work and with about six month's training will be qualified to take independent positions. Qualified janitors can command wages from $100 to $200 per month, and with experience can obtain licenses to run low pressure steam boilers. The Assistant Superintendent of schools who has supervisory charge of this school says: "I beg leave to say that every soldier, without exception, is showing the finest kind of spirit and interest. While some of us are hard-working junior was "everybody's dog," they are seeing for themselves that it is a real man-sized job and that they work for and with fine people." "While they have their regular lessons with the instructors we have them a'so working with our best men in actual 'housekeeping' practice in our school buildings. Several of the men have said that they have found, at last, just what they want to do." Madame L. B. Gross When in need of Face Cream, Hair Grower or High Grade Toilet Articles, call Dale 7606. WORLD'S BEAUTY LABORATORIE 540 University Ava. RADIO CONTROL OF PLANE FLEET One of Startling Early Developments of Air Travel Predicted by General Mitoheil WONDERFUL PROGRESS MADE Airplanes May Be Controlled by Radio From Air as Well as From Ground —Misconception of the Washington, D. C.—Aviation by radio is one of the startling early developments of air travel predicted by Brig. Gen. William Mitchell, assistant chief of the air service of the United States army, in a communication to the National Geographic society. "Aeronautics is progressing more rapidly at this time both from a scientific standpoint—as far as the development of flying machines of all kinds is concerned—and also in the art of actually handling and flying planes," General Mitchell writes. "A speed of 200 miles an hour has been accomplished. To rise vertically from the ground is an accomplished fact. We are able to fly at night, through the storms, and through the fog. Our worst enemy is fog near the ground, and even there we are making progress in eliminating fog over our landing fields. "Radio telegraphy makes it possible for us to talk from plane to plane, from the ground to the plane, and from the plane to the ground. Radio is also able to guide us to our landing fields or to any place that we desire to go. In fact, airplanes can be sent on long journeys with no living pilots in them, but controlled by gyroscopic instruments. These automatically controlled airplanes rise from the ground and fly at whatever altitude is set. Radio Controls Plane Fleet. "In addition, by the aid of radio impulses, their courses may be changed or, if blown off the course by the wind, they may be brought back to it. Airplanes may be controlled by radio from the air as well as from the ground, so that it is entirely within the realm of possibility that an airplane with its crew may start out and control a number of others flying near and around it. "Aircraft are the only things in existence that are able to deliver their cargoes at a station in the air. Nothing can compete with them in this respect, so that, from a military standpoint, when it is desired to deliver a bomb, gun, or observer wherever they will have the most effect on an enemy, aircraft have no equals. "Each day sees an increase in the radius of action of the airplane. In our own air service the airplane has remained aloft for 85 hours and during that time has covered some 3,000 miles. The distance from Ireland to Newfoundland is only 1,700 miles. One of the great Zeppelin airships turned out by the Germans could carry sufficient fuel to go around the world at the latitude of New York. "From a commercial standpoint, as a means of transportation for passengers and freight, the airplane is expensive, but the saving in time is tremendous. "During this year our own Post Office department will establish a mail service between New York and San Francisco and will make the trip in 27 hours, total elapsed time. Misconception of Danger. "The public, in general, has a misconception of the dangers incident to aviation. Military aviation will always be dangerous, because the aircraft employed must have the greatest speed, the greatest gun power, and the greatest lifting capacity. These things are strained to the limit so we may be able to compete with possible enemies, also, in order to be able to support each other, military airplanes have to fly in close formations, through all kinds of weather and under all conditions. "On the other hand, commercial aircraft may be constructed with slow landing speeds, large factors of safety, and with reliable motors that weigh a little bit more than the military engines. The airways, with their landing fields, weather service, and radio telegraphy between airdromes, may be so organised that they will give more security than the railways with their block systems, switches, and repair facilities. "In Europe the commercial air service, carrying passengers and freight, has operated more miles with fewer casualties than have the railways during the past year. "The airplane really originated in the United States and today we hold the world's altitude record, the world's endurance record, and the world's speed record." Mexico City Bans Dog Fights.

The decree, recently issued by Mayor Prieto Lueraens as one of the first acts of his administration, refers to regulated fights, and not the ordinary street affairs between belligerent curs. French Wine Crop Up 50 Per Cent. Paris—The amount of wine produced in France in 1922 exceeded that of 1921 by more than 50 per cent, according to the official figures published recently. The 1922 crop produced 1,518,500,000 gallons of wine, as compared with 900,000,000 in 1921. "The Sanitary Laundry" Works. 289-291 Rice Street near Summit Branch Office: 443 Broadway St. W. B.

Youth Who Slays Bandit Who Robbed Father Discovers Victim is His Brother. Belfast.—The history of civil strife in Ireland has brought forth no tragedy which, for its bitter irony, surpasses an incident reported from Galway. A laborer sold a litter of pligs at the market in Portumna, receiving $200. The same night his house was raided by four masked men, who demanded $200 or his life. Tremblingly he delivered the money and the raiders departed. As the last man was leaving, the young son of the house seized an ax and struck one of the bandits, killing him, whereupon the others fled. Removing the mask, the members of the family discovered that the dead bandit was the laborer's second son. OFFICE TEL. RES. TEL. CEDAR 4044 DALE 7816 HOURS: 9 A. M. TO 1 P. M. AND 2 TO 6 P. M. DR.
