HIGH COURT REVERSES PEON CASE SUBSCRIBE TO THE APPEAL AND HELP THE BOY SCOUTS VOL.39 NO.9 HIGH CITY CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY TODAY WITH EXERCISES Scenic Tableaux to Depict Growth and Progress of City Since 1854 Henry Ford's Double to Depict the Coming of Automobile Manufacturer St. Paul is 69 years old today. This afternoon and evening at the Auditorium, appropriate birthday celebrations will be held. Pictures, tableaux and speeches will tell the story of the city's growth and progress. Music will be furnished tonight by the orchestra of Mechanic Arts high school which contains some colored students. All of the decoration of the interior and exterior of the Auditorium was in the hands of a committee headed by S. Ed. Hall, Philip G. Hoffman, Henry Ford's "double" will have the principal part in the tableau entitled "The Coming of Automobile." It will depict the industrial expansion which was given such tremendous impetus by the announcement that Henry Ford will build a large automobile and tractor plant in St. Paul. Nine Tableaux to Be Staged. There will be nine tableau scenes featured at the first St. Paul birthday party, which commemorates the city's sixty-ninth anniversary as an incorporated Minnesota municipality. Each scene will depict some big period in the city's civic and industrial growth. Mayor Nelson daily is receiving additional acceptances to his official invitation to the seventy odd Minnesota municipalities to attend the birthday party. From present indications the celebration will take on a state-wide complex. Mayor George E. Leach of Minneapolis today notified Mayor Nelson that he would be present with a large delegations of Minneapolis citizens. Similarly, the Mayor and citizens from Two Harbors, Hibbing, Shakalpa, Farmington, Glencoe, Duduh, Willmar, Winona, and a number of smaller municipalities have notified Mayor Nelson that they will be present. Caryl Spiller, general chairman of the Mayor's executive committee, announced today that all arrangements for the birthday party are virtually completed. Last Word in Stage Effect. From an artistic point of view, Mr. Spiller says, the nine tableaux scenes will be the last word in stage artistry. In addition to the tableaux, there will be a number of old historic St. Paul scenes flashed on a huge curtain. These scenes will be shown as they existed in 1854 and as the appear in St. Paul today. Commissioner L. R. S. Ferguson joins Mr. Spiller in urging all children of the city to attend the afternoon program only. This program has been prepared especially for children and special arrangements have been made to provide for their proper care. No children will be admitted to the evening performance unless accompanied by parents. Each child attending the afternoon celebration will be provided with an individual piece of real birthday cake. Siki, Carpentier Sign Again Report All Titles of Each Fighter to Be at Stake in Proposed Bout Parish, February 28.—Georges Carpentier and Battling Ski sign today for a 20-round fight between May and September of this year, in which all the titles held by either are to be at stake. The bout, in which Carpentier will be charged to regain the titles of light heavyweight champion of the world and heavyweight champion of Europe, taken by Ski, when the black man beat Georges last fall, will be held in Paris. Carpentier has claimed since he was beaten by the colored fighter that he was not in condition for the fight and that it was overconfidence that cost him the honors. Skii, since has been disqualified by the French Boxing commission and reinstated. He was disqualified for slugging a second in the ring after a fight. Referring to the reported arrangements for the bout, the Boxing Sports, a sporting rally close to Francois Decaux, says that the winner will take 25 per cent of the gate receipts and the loser 25 per cent. The newspaper adds that the signatories of the contract are to reach an agreement fixing the percentage to be donated to scientific laboratories, as the "Utopian scheme of devoting the entire receipts to science has been abandoned."

WORLD ORDER SEEN BY HERBERT KAUFMAN Believes Civilization Is Being Re-molded in Smelting Pot of Disorder New York, March 2.—Writing in his weekly review column in the Evening Journal, Herbert Kaufman, editor of Hart's Cosmopolitan Magazine, hails the destruction of the capitalist system and the birth of the new world order predicated by the numerous rumblings and revolutions occurring throughout the world today, in the following words: "Earth over, new forces are in ferment. Folk who never thought before—classes hitherto without a voice in management—are challenging all established order and method. "The sudden upset of European governments, the adaptation of peace machinery to war's necessities, the waning power of caste and the waxing strength of democracy, ruptured commerce and paralyzed finance, mad social experiments and wilder economics have so stirred and bewildered humanity that folk everywhere are questioning the soundness and quality of existing institutions and constituted authority. "Civilization reincarnates in disorder's smelting pot. "Renaissance follows rebellion. Wisdom and sanity emerge with fresh vigor and broader vision from such ordeals. "In ordered order is passing. Progress is in the throes of a re-birth. These are just growing pains. "It is only when men are not thinking for themselves—when they are not contending for their own ideas—when their wits and will are not clashing—when ancient and obsolete fabrics are not crashing—that disaster need be feared and the future doubted. "Travail precedes triumph. The century is safe." The bill aimed to bar the Ku Klux Kan from Minnesota was recommended for passage today by the House committee on crime prevention. It was introduced by Miss Myrtle Caine and makes it a misdemeanor to wear a mask except for entertainment purposes. KING KHAMA, 95, DIES; CALLED GREAT AFRICAN (Crusader Service.) London, February 23.—The London Missionary Society has received a cablegram announcing the death at sea at 2 o'clock this morning at the age of 65 years of King Khama, chief of the Damagwato in Bechuanaland. Khama was described by Sir Ferdrick Lugard as the greatest living African. He ruled over 35,000 subjects. "Khama was a great prohibitionist. He fought the manufacture of Kaffin beer by his tribe because he saw his demoralizing influence, and was so furious with the white settlers who after repeated warnings, refused to stop selling spirits that he exiled them from his territory."

French Deputy from Senegal Has Battled His Way to Prominence (Correspondence to the Daily. News.) Paris—Blaise Diagne, the colored deputy from Senegal, who threw his hat into the middle of the ring when Battling Siki told him he was being hounded by the French Boxing federation, because of his color, is known to the entire administrative organization of France as a first-class fighting man when a question of principle is, or seems to be, involved. In Customs Service. Diagne was born fifty years ago in Goree, a little bit of a rock in the South Atlantic off the coast of West Africa. A wealthy relative sent him to Paris to be educated and a few years later he was in Senegal in the customs service. He found himself finally in Madagascar, where he showed his courage in a clash with Gen. Gallieni, Gallieni learned that the customs chief had organized a school for half castee and founded a section of the league of the Right of Man in the island, which is Trinidad. The central demanded the right to nominate the president of the section. Diagne replied: "The customs official must submit to the department regulations; the citizen is free." The section chose its own president. Gov. Augurneur attempted to have Diagne shifted in disguise to a pestilential post in Central Africa. Diagne received the order and returned it with the superscription: "I remain here." Then he got a leave of absence, took a boat for Paris and started a campaign which brought about the downfall of the governor. Elected Deputy. He was elected to the French chamber as representative of Senegal in the 1914 election. During the war he was sent on a mission to his native land to get 50,000 Senegalese recruits. He brought back 80,000. Polincare and Clemenceau offered him the legion of honor. He declined. He accepted, however, the post of high commissioner for the black troops. One day he was seen in the corridors of the Paris Bourbon escorting a dozen ebombed soldiers, whom he explained the beauties of the bronze statues in these words: "You see, when the sculptors want to give us an exact image of human beauty, they choose models of our color." WISCONSIN GETS BILL TO CURB KU KLUX KLAN Madison, Wis., March 2.—What is, so far as is known, the only attempt at legislation in the United States to provide a specific remedy to curb the activities of the Ku Klux Klan is contained in a bill introduced in the lower house of the Wisconsin legislature today by Assemblyman Clinton G. Price, Jumeau county. The measure provides that any person while marked or wearing any device to conceal his identity, who commits a felony, breach of peace or misdemeanor may receive an additional penalty of 10 years in the penitentiary. Savage Tortures Pictured in Report to Federal Council of Churches DONE IN SIGHT OF CHURCHES Committe Finds That Many Victims Were Innocent of Any Crime Washington, March 2.—Like scenes from Dante's "Inferno," and unlike anything deemed possible in modern life, is the description of the tortures inflicted in lynching bees in various states throughout this so-called civilized country, as compiled by the National Association, the House and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches in its educational campaign against lynching. The stories almost pass belief, and yet they are taken from accounts then by reputable newspaper men in the communities which they occurred. The commission states that it seems hardly believable that America, with its great Christian churches, homes, schools and courts and holier-than-than attitude, allowed between 1885 and 1921, the lynching of more than 4,000 persons, the great major-age victims, were deemed too bad to add to the enormity of these crimes against humanity, eight-three of the victims were women. Scores of victims listed as adult males were mere youths. Seventeen of the women lynched were white, the others being colored. The statement says: Many Victims Innocent. many of these lied by mobs were charged with crimes, many of them only with misdeanemans, some only with words or acts which are nowhere unmissable by law or not any All the people where they might have faced their accusers, have had witnesses and have had the evidence considered by a lawful judge or jury. A frenzied mob was judge, jury and executioner. In many cases persons not sought by the mobs have been lynched by mistake, so wild and savage has been the procedure. Some of the victims suffered indescribable torture, such as saturation of parts of the body with kerosene or gasoline, so that they could be burned piecemeal, or branding with hot irons. Within Sight of Churches. "In some cases these atrocities have been perpetrated within sight of the churches of the community." Lynchings are often definitely planned and carried out. Here are a few illustrations chosen from accounts in leading city newspapers following lynchings: 1. "Late last night the jailer was enticed away from the prison on the pretense of a call to make an arrest. As soon as he was out of hearing a mob of 200 masked men went to the jail and took the keys from his wife, and securing the three prisoners, took them to the bridges and placed a strong rope around the neck of each tied the other end to the timbers of the bridge and compelled their victims to jump." Eight Prisoners Shot. 2. (Summarized.) "Masked mob entered the jail at two A. M. and took out eight prisoners. Outside eight Negroes. Eight were shot to death and one, a Negro, escaped after being wounded. The mob overpowered the town marshal and the jailer, carried the men out and tied them to fence posts by their necks and then fired five volleys into their bodies. Only one of the prisoners had been convicted—a Negro, under sentence of death for the murder of another Negro." Ku Klux Klan and Sinister Influences at. Work to. Sidetrack Investigation, Civil Liberties, Writes Governor. (Crusader Service.) New York, March 2.—Charges that investigation by the Arkansas legislature into the lynching of E. C. Gregor, a railroad striker, at Harrison on January 15, has been sidetracked by officials of the Missouri and North Arkansas railroad are contained in a letter sent yesterday to Governor Thomas C. McRae by Roger N. Baldwin, director, and Harry F. Ward, chairman of the American Civil Liberties Union. The officers of the union, who have been in touch with the situation through their correspondents in Arkansas, offer to "render any assistance possible to the authorities of the state in restoring civil rights in the affected district and in bringing to justice the perpetrators of these outrages." They charge that "minister influences are at work to prevent anything being done in the future," and make inquiries of the governor on specific charges which bear out that contention. USE "BIG STICK" OR BOW TO KLAN, GOVERNOR PARKER WARNS FIRST! Foreign news of colored races over the world is published in the Northwest exclusively in THE APPEAL The Northwest's Foremost Weekly Louisiana Executive Says Every State Should Provide Severe Penalties for Hooded Mobs; Fears Mer Rouge Inquiry Will Fizzle WANTS MASKS RIPPED OFF CHICAGO, Feb. 28.—The "big stick" methods of Theodore Roosevelt must be used in unmasking the Ku Klux Klan or else local governments will be submerged under the rule of hooded mobs acting as prosecutor, judge, jury and executioner, Gov. John M. Parker of Louisiana declared last night in an address at the Coliseum from the same platform he and Roosevelt bolted in the 1912 Republican national convention to become running mates in the Bull Moose party. Gov. Parker and former Senator Leroy Percy of Mississippi were speakers at the opening session of a scheduled six nights "all nations anti-klan rally." Percy terms the klan a "monstrous, sinister, colossal piece of buffoonery." Urges Nation-wide Fight. The governor urged a national fight against kluxers, telling his standing-room audience that it was up to them to act and to act drastically and at once. "Every state in the union should declare itself against masked men and mob violence in such unmistakable terms and with such severe penalties that would dare wear the hood and robes that conceal murder and outrage under a traitorous pretense of law enforcement," Gov. Parker said. The mass meeting was presided over by Chief Justice Michael McKinley of the criminal courts, who has barred klansmen from his juries. Gov. Parker devoted much of his address to what he termed "tearing the hood off of kluxism in Louisiana," telling the details of the Mer Rouge investigation. After relating how the klan had so controlled the local government there that nothing could be done about the murder of two citizens, he added that even now the "masked mob" was so powerful that no indictments were expected from the grand jury. State to Prosecute. "The state of Louisiana, however, will file information and prosecute and convict," he said. "The Ku Klux Klan has as much right any society to organize," Gov. Parker said, "but organization has the right to work under cover of darkness, hoods and masks, to commit crimes and out rages that take us back to the middle of barbarism. "No one who read of Mer Rouge can doubt that the time has come to unmask the klan forever, to compel its members to stand out publicly and be judged; to fix the responsibility. Action—vigorous action—is needed. You men and women who love your families and your country and its blessings—it is time for you to get to work against this menace. The answer is up to you." BAND OF 25TH PLAYS FOR MEXICAN CARNIVAL Nogales, Sonora, Mex., March 2. (Pacific News Bureau)—The famous band of the 25th United States Infantry was recently chosen to furnish the music for the great Madri carnival, parade, and masque ball house in Nogales, Mexico. The house in Nogales, the week of February 11. INTERRACE BODY GETTING RESULTS Committees Strive Quietly to Erase Stubborn Prejudices, Says Officer By Dr. James Bond. Like most movements of its kind, the Inter-racial Movement had its birth in a great crisis. During the war the white and colored people of the South had, in a very remarkable way, forgotten their differences and united in a supreme effort to win the war. Promises of better things were made to all of our boys, black and white. The colored soldier accepted these promises at face value. He played well his part in the war. When upon his return to his homeland these promises were not realised, his military filth withness. The lines were more tightly drawn and barriers to his progress seemed more stubborn and relentless than ever. Conferences Called. As race riots broke out and fear of a general race conflict gripped the country, a group of white men, confident that the good will and co-operation secured between the races during the war could be perpetuated, called into conference a number of representative colored men in the spirit of prayer and supplication, and adopted a platform upon which all could stand. The planks of this platform included justice before the law, the prevention of lynching, and the correction of other injustices to the colored people. Some of the most widely known people of the South accepted places on the commission, and were our ministers, college presidents, bishops and capitalists. As a later development, many of the South's leading women have become associated with the movement. The commission does not pretend to have discovered a short-cut to the millennium or to have brought into existence a perfect organization, nor does it believe that it has found a solution to the race problem that can be worked out in a day. It recognizes, in the language of George Madden Martin, that prejudices are stubborn, and that to overcome them is not a task for limited sympathies and petty natures; that it is not a task that can be done by machinery or mere organization; that it is a task that cannot be done out in the spirit and according to the ethics of the Man of Gallice. These principles emphasize first the truth that contact is necessary in the solution of any human problem. Differences are at first minimized, then they disappear. Works At Lynching. The leaders perfected a duly organized commission with membership representing thirteen states and headquarters in Atlanta. In addition to this commission, each of the thirteen states has a commission directing the work in that state. Some eight hundred of the twelve hundred counties in the Southern states have organized local committees of representative white and colored people. In thirty-seven years, from 1885 to 1921, there were 437 lynchings in Georgia and only one indictment. In 1922 alone, with eight lynchings twenty-two persons were indicted, of whom four have been convicted and sent to the penitentiary and fifteen are still to be tried. The evidence in these cases was collected largely by the inter-racial secretary and committees in Georgia. This is one illustration among many of the effectiveness of the movement. Need Co-operation. What the commission needs more than anything else is the confidence of the community, white and colored. It seeks the sympathy and co-operation of the members of the churches and social organizations, to the end that this greatest problem confronting the American people today may be settled by the principles of justice and fair play, and according to the teachings of Jesus. $2.00 PER YEAR REMOVES TRIAL OF FARMERS FROM ARKANSAS COURTS Fate of Twelve Sentenced to Death Hangs on Review of Case LITIGATION COST IS $14,000 Supreme Court Decision Great Victory for Scipio Jones, Morefield Storey NEW YORK, March 2.—The five Arkansas peons, condemned to death by Arkansas courts in connection with the riots of 1918, whose cases the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has fought through five courts including the Arkansas Supreme Court, will not be executed, according to a decision rendered by the highest tribunal of the land, setting aside the conviction of the land. The Supreme Court's decision takes the cases of the condemned colored farmers out of the jurisdiction of the State of Arkansas and requires the United States District Court to examine into the attempt to railroad these men to death. Peonage in Limelight. The Arkansas cases constitute the center of a fight being made to bring the facts of peonage in the cotton-raising sections of the United States to light, and to bring federal pressure to abolish that evil. In the legal battle for defense of these men the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has raised $14,572.42 and already spent $14,115.74, besides thousands of dollars raised and spent by the colored people of Arkansas who were vitally interested in the fate of their comrades. The victory before the Supreme Court is due to the courageous and untiring labors of Seipio A. Jones, a colored attorney of Little Rock, and to Moorfield Storey, President of the N. A. A. C. P. who appeared before the Supreme Court in Washington on January 9, 1923, to argue the cases. The Arkansas case originated in the riot of 1919, when it was asserted that the colored farmers in and near Phillips County, Arkansas, had conspired to "massacre the whites." A personal investigation of the riot was made by Walter F. White, who was sent to Arkansas by the N. A. A. C., disclosed that far from planning a "massacre," the colored farmers had been organized to employ a lawyer to compel settlement from their landlords who were holding their tenants in a state of peonage or debt slavery. Conspiracy Charged. Duing the riots, some 250 innocent colored people, men, women and children, were hunted and shot down in the Arkansas cane brakes, posses of white men coming from Mississippi and Tennessee to join in the hunt. The colored men arrested were beaten and tortured to make them testify, 67 were sentenced to long prison terms and twelve were sentenced to death. The cases of all the men sentenced to death hinge up on the conviction of those convictions have been reversed by the United States Supreme Court. In the brief filed before the Supreme Court by Mr. Storey, it is charged that the courts of Arkansas, including the Kansas Supreme Court, the newspapers, leading white citizens and clubs, conspired or connived at a conspiracy to railroad these colored farmer to death. Decision Recites Facts The Supreme Court's decision says. "According to the affidavits of two white men and the colored witnesses on whose testimony the petitioners were convicted, produced by the petitioners since the last decision of the Supreme Court hereafter mentioned, the Committee made good their promise by calling colored witnesses and having them whipped and tortured until they would say what they wanted, among them being the two relied on to prove the petitioners' guilt. However that may be, a grand jury of white men was organized on October 27th, with one of the Committee of Seven, and it is aledged, with many of those organized to fight the blacks, upon it, and on the morning of the 29th the indictment was returned. On November 3rd, the petitioners were brought into Court, informed that a certain lawyer was appointed in trial before a white jury—blacks being systematically excluded from both grand and petit juries. The Court was crowded with a strong that threatened the most dangerous consequences to anyone interfering with the desired result. The counsel did not venture to demand delay or a chang of venue, to challenge a juryman or to ask for separate trials. He had h i l no preliminary consultation with the accused, called no witnesses for the defence, although they could have been produced, and did not put the defendants on the stand. The trial lasted about three quarters of an hour and in less than five minutes the jury brought in a verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree.

TERMS STRICTLY IN ADVANCE Single Copy, One Year.....$2.00 Single Copy, Six Months.....1.00 Single Copy, Three Months.....50 ```markdown ``` POOR ADVICE Through the columns of one of the colored weeklies it has been suggested to superintendent of schools Hartwell to observe the conditions in the Cleveland schools with reference to the education of colored children. He has been assured that we would be interested in hearing of the situation as he sees it. The suggestion is wholly unnecessary and totally out of place. In the first place, it is difficult to see how the editor of a paper which has printed little of the true conditions in Cleveland can assume that his public would be interested in an outsider's report on the situation. Undoubtedly this is assuming too much. THE APPEAL will not be interested in such a report and hundreds of its readers, the parents of boys and girls who have grown up in the schools of St. Paul, will not be interested in such a report. The statement that segregation and discrimination have produced unrest is erroneous. According to the news columns of the editor's own paper, the large infux from the south has "naturally affected the school system." That is to say, segregation and discrimination are being talked of as a result of the large infux. The unrest that has resulted from the infux has been quickened by the exposure of unparalleled debauchery and vice admiring the children attending the schools in the colored district. These are matters of court record. How can superintendent Hartwell's opinion alter them? Of what value can his observations be? It is to be regretted, rather, that his attention has been called to this situation. It is just possible that Mr. Hartwell may see in the Cleveland schools not something which St. Paul should avoid, but something which she should imitate. Suppose that at the next friction at McKinley school or the next graduation ceremony at Central High, Superintendent Hartwell should remember Cleveland's way and make an adverse decision? IF THE APPEAL had presumed to ask the superintendent to observe anything in the Cleveland school system it would have asked him to note how Cleveland has employed as many as 100 colored teachers to teach all colors of children, in grade and high schools. Without a doubt all of us would be interested to hear him explain why such a state of affairs is not possible in St. Paul. GET THE GUN TOTER The recent move for the enforcement of the law prohibiting the indiscriminate sale and carrying of firearms is the first intelligent action that has been made since the hysteria to check crime struck our state and city officials and our great newspapers. It is an attempt to get at causes, while the capital punishment bill, just defeated in the Senate, was a silly move for a repressive non-curing measure. If the policing authorities will stop the sale of firearms and prohibit the display of guns in the windows of pawn shops and cheap stores, they will be working intelligently to check crime. If they will go farther and catch an appreciable percentage of the persons who commit crimes there will be no crime "wave." Heretofore it has been the practical certainty in the mind of the criminal that he would not be apprehended that has led him to unprecedented daring and bloodshed. Stop the sale of guns, and catch more criminals and crime is bound to decrease. FIRST, THE RAGE It is too early to say what a conference of race organizations such as that suggested by Kelly Miller and the National Equal Rights league should produce. No prediction of what definite policies should be adopted or what action should be initiated can be made at this time. It is possible, however, to say what at- titudes must prevail if the conference is to get under way, to say nothing of accomplishing results. of accomplishing results. Old political, sectional, and race doctrinal prejudices must be controlled. The participating organizations and schools of thought must submerge their group aspirations and programs to the common good of the race. This one thing is certain: the colored American faces now the most critical time since emancipation, and he faces this time as A COLORED AMERICAN, not as a Bostonian, a Northern "Negro," a Southern "Negro," a radical or a conservative. Needless to say he must seek to solve the problem of his future as one—there must be a united front. To the extent that the conferring organizations and movements honestly cooperate for the good of the whole rather than their particular part, to that extent will the conference accomplish results. Let there be no black miniature of Versailles. Legislation has been proposed and is likely to be pressed in the Illinois assembly to meet the evil of vigilantism, night riding, and crimes committed by masked maudravers. Such legislation exists in some other states. For example, Tennessee has had on its criminal code since 1870 an act inflicting a penalty of from $100 to $500 and imprisonment in the county jail for any person or persons, masked or in disguise, who shall "prowl, or travel, or ride, or walk through the country or towns, to the disturbance of the peace or the alarming of the citizens." Another section declares that if any person, disguised or in mask, by day or by night, shall enter upon the premises of another or demand entrance into a house or inclosure, it shall be considered prima facie that his intention is felonious and be deemed an assault with intent to commit felony, and on conviction shall be punished by imprisonment in the penitentiary for not less than ten nor more than twenty years. A third section declares that any one who, while masked or disguised, assaults another with a deadly weapon shall be deemed guilty of assault with intent to commit murder in the first degree and on conviction shall suffer death by hanging, provided that the jury may substitute imprisonment for not less than ten nor more than twenty-one years. This is drastic law and it is said to have kept Tennessee free from night riding and similar offenses. It seems to us justifiable and, while the evil has not been rampant in Illinois as in some other states, we see no reason why a severe law should not be enacted to prevent the practice. Nothing could be more intolerable than the infliction of private punishment, under cover of secrecy. The mask is inexcusable and cowardly. It encourages irresponsible private action. If, as in the case of the early vigilantes of frontier days, the law is not enforced, citizens should act in the open, assuming responsibility to the community for their action. The mask merely protects private lawlessness and should be made unlawful. Night riding is uncivilized, and no self-respecting community will tolerate the assumption by self-appointed private individuals of the right to discipline other without authority or form of law. Secret societies are numerous in this country and most of them have some form of uniform or regalia for their own ceremonies. That is legitimate. But masks and disguises, which conceal the person and invite irresponsible action, should not be permitted in public. In the face of the most shameful revelations regarding the morals of hundreds of high school children the opinion of colored Cleveland divides and hesitates. There is even some talk of the exposure coming to naught. If this is true, the colored populace of the big Ohio city cannot be too severely condemned. The old Clevelanders blame the newcomers, and the newcomers resent being blamed. All factions fear separate schools, and one has suggested that the exposure was unwise. No good can come of this shilly-shallying. The conditions exist to the shame of all Cleveland: all Cleveland should unite in an endeavor to clean things out, and let the blame fall where it may. The moral and spiritual cleanliness of the boys and girls is above every other consideration. Better, yes, to have clean separate schools than rotten mixed ones. It is reported that Thomas Dixon, the author of the Clansman from which the infamous Birth of a Nation was produced, is loid in his denunciation of the present day Ku Klux Klan. He warns the Klan that riot, anarchy, bloodshed and martial law will surely follow. Knowing Dixon as we do, we can't but say his protests are symptoms of an highly excited case of jealousy.—St. Louis Argus. We have made marked progress during the past fifty years but that will not suffice for the future. We must beat that by a wide margin. Only co-operative methods will secure such a result—Dallas Express. While we can find many reasons for loving America, we also know of a few reasons why we shouldn't—Pittsburgh American. an annual race day by custom, a colored American day by public observation, a day in which to assemble to honor the man of our race, why by his courageous death as leader of a band of patriots, all white save himself, gave us all ourst title to full American freedom and rights."

(Official Seal) BOY SCOUTS BOY SCOUTS' ANNIVERSARY The Boy Scouts of America throughout the entire country celebrated the week of the thirteenth anniversary of the movement February 8-15. Demonstrations of scouters, rallies, parent-and son meetings, radio messages of indorsement of scouting by prominent people, and the taking of the scout oath by well-known men had a place on the program. Fifty thousand cards containing a spendful indorsement of the movement were placed in street cars throughout the country, and the postion pluring scout training appeared in the different cities. The card cards and posters were the donation of stanch supporters of the movement to help bring scouting's message to every American man, woman and child. One of the most impressive acts of the entire week occurred on the evening of February 8 when every scout and scout leader throughout the country reaffirmed the scout oath: "On my honor, I will do my best! "1. To 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, mostly awake, and novelly straight." In many communities the respective days of anniversary week were devoted to scouting in connection with the school, the church, the home, and the community. Special demonstrations were given showing what scouting is doing to co-operate with each of these institutions. As the public grows more familiar with the scout program of character building and citizenship training, it demands—"Why are there not more boys scouts?" In response to this question, the Boy Scouts of America made an extraordinary effort to make room in the ranks by anniversary week for 100,000 new members. This effort was termed the anniversary round-up. In this connection every scout the country over had an opportunity of doing a national good turn, by bringing to the ranks one more boy to advance in the work of good citizenship. Indications point to the success of the program in 100,000. With the increase proposed, the total boy membership of the Boy Scouts of America will reach the half million mark. President Harding, in his appreciation of the work of the Boy Scouts of America* and his interest in seeing more boys members of the organization, authorized the presentation in his name of a large silk-American flag to each region attaining its quota of increase in membership for the anniversary roundup; and handsome set of silk streamers* red, white and blue—to each of the 600 local councils that serve as the president and a burial smaller set of streamers to each troop that enrolls the specified number of new members. President Harding is the honorary president of the Boy Scouts of America. A group of scouts unsolicited, recently took the responsibility of guarding a certain dangerous crossing, of getting little children over in safety. These boys didn't tell anybody of what they were doing. They weren't looking for credit—they were just doing. Last winter a scout stood guard over a live wire for several hours on a freezing night. In passing, he had seen the danger, and on his own initiative guarded passby until the repairmen came. He froze his ear, but he did his duty as a scout. And where the boy scout organization through its chief scout executive, said: "We claim there are no naturally bad boys, though there are idle, misdirected or undirected, mischievous, heedless or mistaken boys." It based that assertion, and the following one on just such facts as these quoted: "We claim that if you give a boy "please of interesting, worthwhile things to do in his out-of-school or after-work hours, that the chances are he will have little inclination to malicious mischief or vicious misuse." AID INJURED BOY While playing, Robert McKnight of Bowling Green took a big jump and his foot landed upon a broken bottle. A large artery was cut and began to bleed profusely. Scout Norman Loomis was present. Following his first aid instructions, he promptly stopped the flow of blood by use of a tourniquet. He then took the injured boy upon his back and carried him to his home. ROTARY USES SCOUT MOTTO In conformity with the scout slogan, "Do a Good Turn Dally," boy scouts of Tampa, Fla., have performed excellent service to their community. The boys declare that the old saying, "Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you," is especially significant in their case. For now come their friends, the Rotarians, at a recent state convention with a memento coin on which is stamped the motto, "Do a Good Turn Dally to Some Boy." Boston, March 2—A call to colored Americans to observe the death of Crispus Attucks, martyr to the cause of independence, with appropriate exercises on March 5, was issued by the National Equal Rights leagues here today.

Removes Trial of Farmers From Arkansas Court contined from first page cording to all the allegations and affidavits there never was a chance for the petitioners to be acquitted; no juryman could have voted for an acquittal and continued to live in Phillips County, and if any prisoner by any chance had been acquitted by the jury he could not have escaped the mob. Order reversed. The case to stand for hearing before the District Court." One Hundred Successful Vet The United States Veterans Bureau has completed a survey of 100 rehabilitated vocational students who have completed training under one of the district offices of the Bureau. This report brings out some very interesting statistics. The survey is very thorough and includes a complete report of the disabled veterans economic status. This evaluation indicates whether or not the rehabilitated veteran owns an automobile, shows the amount of insurance, both government and private he carries, the amount of his bank account, whether he is a home owner, a memorial home on his cost of his training, and also shows whether he has established his own business or whether he is employed by someone else. In addition to these statistics the survey brings out many other interesting facts. The average pre-war education of the 100 unselected cases surveyed shows an average education slightly above that of the eighth grade. The average age of these men is 28 years 4 months. These men were earning, before the war, an average wage of $1,057.47; the present average annual salary is $1,399, 58. The survey shows that 43 out of the 100 cases investigated have a bank account, 14_own their homes; 23 own automobiles; 24 have government insurance. One veteran whose disability was that of a gun-shot wound has been rehabilitated by the Veterans Bureau as a surgeon whose present salary is $4,000 per annum. A disabled veteran was rehabilitated as a plumber at an annual salary of $2,500. A veteran who received an annual pre-war salary of $360 as a farm laborer has been rehabilitated as an auto mechanic and is now receiving an annual salary of $1,820. A veteran whose pre-war occupation was that of a printer has been rehabilitated as a linotype compositor and is now receiving an annual salary of $2,320. These are some of the typical cases which were investigated in this survey. The average number of months which these veterans were in vocational training with the U. S. Veterans Bureau was 17. The average cost of training these disabled veterans into their new occupation amounted to $2,018.87. The survey shows that 25 out of the 100 who were rehabilitated have established their own business. The report shows that 62 of these men were married. This survey will be of considerable assistance to the Bureau in the rehabilitation program. As a result of this survey the Veterans Bureau will be able to assist the disabled veterans in selecting an occupation which is not overcrowded and which offers a satisfactory wage. Income Tax Facts No. 4 In making out his income tax for 1922, the taxpayer is required to include all the items of gross income. In the case of a storekeeper the gross income consists usually of the gross profits on sales, together with income from other sources. The returns must show the gross sales, purchases, and cost of goods sold. To reflect net income correctly, and to ascertain (gross income, inventories are provided based on all of the expenses and end of each taxable year. The professional man, doctor, lawyer, dentist, must include all fees and other compensation for professional services. The farmer is required to report as gross income all profits derived from the sale or exchange of farm products, including crops and live stock, whether raised on the farm or purchased and resold. A farmer who rents his farm on the crop sharing basis must report such income for the years in which the crops are sold. Profit obtained from the sale or rental of farm lands also must be reported. In order that they may obtain full advantage of the deductions from gross income to which they are entitled, taxpayers are advised by collectors of internal revenue to study carefully the instructions on the forms for making returns under the head "income from Business or Profession." ASK COLORED PEOPLE TO STOP SUNDAY FUNERALS Tampa, Fla.—In a recent public address to prominent colored people of the city, including preachers and teachers, Dr. J. R. Harris, city health officer, deplored the practice of colored secret societies holding so many funerals on Sundays. It has been the custom here, Dr. Harris pointed out, for the lodges and relatives of colored people dying during the week to postpone the funeral until the following Sunday. This order necessit- tates a considerable delay, which is not only opposed to the rules of public health but also is a hardship upon the feelings of numerous bereaved relatives, whose sufferings are prolonged by postponed and elaborate lodge funeral ceremonies. The colored ministers adopted a resolution suppoiting the stand of the city health officer. I BET YOU Mr. A. has dizziness. I bet you he is drinking too much tea and coffee, and not enough water. Mr. B. has heart trouble. I bet you he is drinking too much tea and coffee, and not enough water. Mr. C. can't sleep nights. I bet you he is drinking too much tea and coffee, especially at night, and not enough water. Mr. D. has nervous talkativeness in his home and otherwise. I bet you he is drinking too much tea and coffee, and not enough water. Mr. E. has stomach trouble. I bet you he is drinking to much tea and coffee, not enough water. The little German manoy explained that when he was hungry and short of pennies he bought a pretzel because it made him thirsty, and then he could fill up the rest of the way on water. To drink less tea and coffee, and "fill up the rest of the way on water" will help many a person with many physical and nervous ailments. COLORED MAN USES GUN ON ABDUCTORS (Preston News Service.) Birmingham, Ala., March 2—Edward H. Daniels, who shot his way to liberty after being carried some distance from this city by a band of kidnapers. There were four masked men in the band Daniels says. According to the police Daniels said that he fired upon his captors shortly before the man was brought to the local hospital with a bullet wound in his head. The white man told hospital authorities that he accidentally shot himself. In a statement made to the police Daniels said that he was kidnapped, blindfolded and hustled into an automobile. While traveling at a high speed the machine struck a bad road. The jostling gave him an opportunity to wrest a pistol from one of his abductors. He told the police that he immediately leaped from the moving car and began firing at the four men. He said the other three returned the fire but all their shots went wild. He is confident that he hit one of the men. Afterward a man was brought to the hospital, claiming to have accidentally shot himself, the police say. Daniels stated that he knew no reason why should have been kidnapped. He told the police that he believed the gang of men were bent on doing some bodily harm to him from their actions. The authorities refused to reveal the name of the white victim. BULL CHASES LLOYD GEORGE Glbairtal—David Lloyd George and his family, with Lord Birkenhead and other notables, witnessed a display of fighting bulls at the Algecias ranch of the Gallardo brothers. The entertainment was not an actual bull fight, but it had a rather sensational ending. A herd of young bulls bred for the ring was turned loose on a broad plain. The animals were baited with capes by men mounted and afoot, and while the action was at its height, one bull escaped. He charged the spectators and a general stampede followed. Every one succeeded in reaching the line of automobiles bordering the field, and the bull was made captive. Mr. Lloyd George was later photographed in the midst of a group of Spanish beauties, who wore their national costumes. GIVES GEMS TO FEED HUNGRY Donations by Bavaria's Old Aristocracy Ralese 8,000,000 Marks for Poor of Munich. Munich.—Eight million marks have been realized at an auction here of jewels and gold and silver articles which Prince and Princess Konrad assembled for the benefit of Munich's needy. Many of the contributions were heirlooms and other family treasures. Members of Bavaria's old aristocracy were liberal in opening up their hearts and coffers. Prince Konrad and his wife themselves donated articles, which sold for 860,000 marks. A bouquet of diamonds and pearls set in gold, contributed by Princess Lehingen, brought 2,600,000 marks, the highest bid of the auction. A piece of jewelry from one of ex-King Ludwig's daughters went for 230,000 marks. Princess Ludwig Ferdinand and Princess Pilar were represented by 180,000 marks' worth of donations. RIG WRECKS CAR; MAN PAYS Driver Fined $10 in Court for Steering Buggy Into Moving Automobile. Brainerd, Minn.—Charged with recklessly driving his horse and buggy into a moving automobile, Thomas Hubbard, was fined $10 in court. Hubbard's buggy struck the car driven by J. A. Jones, turned the machine around, dented the body, and crumpled the fender. No one was hurt. Parkersburg, W. Va.—It was cold the other day when Mrs. Hugo Moats of Harrisville sat down before an open gas fire to warm her feet. A few minutes later she was startled by an explosion which, she says, tore off the tip of one of her shoes. Her toes were so badly injured that amputation was necessary. Mrs. Moats fitted suit in Circuit court here for $5,000, charging that the manufacturer used celluloid instead of leather in the inner lining of the shoe tip. CHANGES WINDOW ENVELOPE Post Office Department Order Restricts Mailing Inclosure Design. Washington—Orders from the Post Office department have been issued prescribing conditions governing acceptance of letters inclosed in "window envelopes." These regulations provide that the window must be parallel with the length of the envelope, properly located, transparent and free from glaze. No printing is permitted about the windows. The envelope must bear a return address card, and must be made of white or very lightly tinted paper, dark-colored paper being forbidden. Inclosures must be folded so nothing but the name and address are exposed and so they will not shift in the envelope. Manufacturers have been informed of the new requirements and advised not to supply window envelopes that do not conform. Notification has been sent to them thereafter, under no circumstances, will window envelopes that do not meet the requirements be accepted by postmasters for transmission through the mails. SPENDS $10,000 A DAY 1930 May Clay, who won a trip to Honolulu by spending $10,000 a day for three consecutive days. "Go blow yourself to some clothes," my husband said. "Til bet you a trip to Honolulu against your pet Spits that you can't spend $10,000 a day for three days." It's a bargain, I said, and I went and did it." MILKMAN PAYS $100 FOR KISS Detroit Woman Customer Wine Verdict in Court for Smacks Not Ordered. Detroit, Mich.—Osculatory cream on a pint of milk which Jerome Messerman, Springwells milkman, delivered to Elizabeth Kolsvare, 5653 Kerwih avenue, cost him $100 in justice court. His kisses curled or something "Well, I never," exclaimed the astonished housewife when Messerman put the ordered bottle on the table and the unordered kiss, or two it might have been, on her cheek. She told her husband, Arnold, and he was none too good-natured about it, either. Kerwin avenue woman patrons were called by Messerman's lawyer to prove that Messerman never kissed them, but the jury didn't think their denials relevant and brought in a verdict of $100 for the voluntarily kissed one. She had asked $500. SWEDEN PLANS AIR SERVICE Letters for England Will Reach London in Day When Airplanes Route Is Opened.
