The Appeal

ANTI-KLAN BILL PASSED BY HOUSE VOL. 39 NO. 12 ANTI- TO CONTEST WILL LEAVING FORTUNE TO COLORED GIRL Former Sheriff in West Virginia Leaves Entire Estate to Colored Daughter BROTHER WANTS $209,000 Document Warns That Others Will Try to Take Property From Her Charleston, W. Va., Mar. 22—Legal proceedings to set aside the will of Roman Pickens anticipated since it was probated, have been instituted by John E. his brother, and a bitter fight is in prospect for the large estate left by the decedent to the daughter "outside the law." Gives Advice. Pickens, once sheriff of this—Kenawa—county and a picturesque figure, died in December last, bequeathing his estate to Garnet Pickens, locally known and generally accepted as his daughter by a colored woman, long a domestic in his household. The will gave the entire estate, appraised at $299,000, to Miss Garnet, with directions that she "treat with love and affection," the lawful widow, Mary E. Pickens (white), who holds legal rights during her life time. It also directed that she "well and comfortably provide for 'Cora,' the servant" during her life. Much common-sense advice was conveyed to the heiress, a beautiful young woman who has since reached her majority, by the document. It directs her to consult with experienced lawyers during her official cautions her never to sign or endorse any notes, and warns her that she will be the object of the schemes of designing persons. The beneficiary is also commanded not to sell any of the real estate until she reaches the age of 60. Pickens is located in this city and in the farming sections of this and neighboring counties, rapidly is increasing in value. H. P. Brightwell, city treasurer and vice president of a local trust company, of which Pickens was a director, was named administrator by the state legislature, of the same institution appointed appraisers by the court. Miss Pickens has had little or no association with other members of her race than her mother, with whom she lived in the home of her father on a farm at Tornado) Burles up Coal River in a white farming settlement. There being no colored school and her father being averse or too "close" to send her away, she has had the advantage of only what little education her parents and an occasional tutor could give her. ABBOTT RECOMMENDED FOR SPINGARN MEDAL Amsterdam News Nominates Editor of the Defender for 1922 Award (Crusader Service) New York, March 23.—In its current issue the N. Y.

The preliminary conference was called by the National Equal Rights League and Prof. Kelly Miller, acting independently of each other at first, but later co-operating and communicating with them. The preliminary conference will be participated in by the National Equal Rights League, The African Blood Brotherhood, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Negro Program League and Prof. Kelly Miller as one of the callers. The meetings will be held today and tomorrow in the Lafayette Building. The sessions will be from 10 to 12 mornings, and from 2 to 5 after noon. The conference itself will be followed by a mass meeting tonight at Rev. Martin's Church, 124 West 18th Street, under the auspices of the National Equal Rights League, whose president Dr. Robert J. McCormick will be in New York, early this week to conclude arrangements for this public meeting.

It will have a radio fog signal to warn ships which pass, will be equipped with electric signal lights and will have an oscillator in place of a submarine bell for use during fogs. The new vessel will be fully equipped for radio communication. THE APPEAL. Hundreds of Cabins Wrecked and Town of Savage Razed By Tornado Damage Estimated at $350,000; 18 Dead, 25 Hurt Say Reports (Crusader Service) Memphis, Tenn., Mar. 20.—Eighteen dead, approximately 100 injured and property damage estimated at $300,000 to $400,000 made up the known toll toon of a tornado which swept seven Delta counties in Northern Mississippi last night, demolished one village, Savage, and left a trail of property damage and dead and maimed in a dozen or more towns and farming settlements. Several hundred were homeless. Dwellings Into River Of the known dead, nine lost their 'lives when the storm battered the remnants of the town of Savage—badly damaged two months ago by a 'ornado—into bits, and carried half a dozen dwellings into Coldwater River. Five colored people were killed 'here. Several whites also lost their lives. Six others lost their lives when their cabins were wrecked near Lambert, and one colored child and woman were killed at Walnut Lake. Of the injured, about fifteen were reported seriously hurt. Ten colored people are among the seriously injured. The storm, a whirling wind which swept in from the Southwest, in its rush Northeastward tore paths through the towns of Olive Branch, Holly Springs, Sardis, Hernando and Phillip, after levelling the village of Savage and wrecking a dozen or more farming settlements and hamlets. Holly Springs Hit. Savage was tonight a mass of splintered wreckage. At Sardis a dozen buildings were wrecked and the front of a hotel was smashed. At Holly Springs the McDermott Hotel and the Frisco railroad station were damaged. Half a dozen buildings were wrecked at Hernando and at Walnut Lake the storm took its heaviest toll on the plantation of L. C. Cannon, where nearly a score of cabins were swept from their foundations and the plantation dwelling was damaged. Fected area was still crippled tonight and only meagre reports had been received from inland villages in the path of the tornado. Moving in a path less than a mile wide, the storm swept farming settlements about Lambert and stuck next to the water River, literally obliterating the village. The only buildings standing there were a portion of the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley Railroad station and a section house. Last night's storm was the second week's week in the Central Mississippi Valley, tornado wrecking the villages of Pinson and Leanburg, Tenn., 85 miles east of Memphis, and taking a total of 17 lives. FAKE SOLICITOR GETS FOUR MONTHS IN JAIL New York, Mar. 23.-Ralph Morton, who pleaded guilty to collecting funds under false pretenses, alleging himself to be an agent for the Nassau County government of Colored People, the Lincoln Hospital of New York and other institutions, has been sentenced to jail for four months by Judge John P. Kellogg in the criminal session of the Court in Bridgeport, Conneckirk. Reports of Morton's activities in Connecticut, New York State and New England came to the Advancement Association, which sent a warm message to the governor obtaining evidence which was used to bring about the conviction. FIGURES SHOW COLORED KANSAS LAW-ABIDING New York—Extracts from a statement made by C. C. Ellis, Bertillon Superintendent in the Wichita, Kan. police department, and published in the Wichita Daily Journal on February 18, were quoted today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to state that fewer colored than white people were arrested for serious crimes. Mr. Ellis' figures show that 560 persons were arrested during the crime, of which only 38 were colored 400 Colored Girls Solve Problem of French Servants Paris, March 29 - France's servant problem has reached such a crisis that one of the philanthropic societies has imprinted a new name, the Martinique and Gundeloupe to work in French households. The dusky-skimmed colonials, wearing red bandannas around their heads and enveloped in bright calico Mother humbards, landed in Paris, where they were taken directly to the home of the society, whence they will be distributed throughout France. PREDICTS COLORED RACES WILL RULE Berlin, March 23—The "international brotherhood," dream of well-meaning Socialists and pacifists, is still far off. Wrong holds the world, in which the United States is the World peace is not to come until the blinded 'civilized' nations bleed themselves white, and then the world will be dominated by the virile colored races. There will be another generation of wars, in which the United States will be repeatedly involved. These are the prophets of Anton Johanson, the aged peasant seer, whose prophetic warning that 'Beloved God will save you in many's coffin' and whose urgings against the great war which he fore-saw caused so much talk in court circles between 1907 and 1914, but were ignored. Dr. Drander, the former Kaiser's chief chapleman, became greatly interested in the peasant prophet and introduced him at that time to more than a dozen university professors, and specialists in occult science. Amazing Fulfillments Johansson insisted that "The Voice" instructed him to warn rulers sovereigns, especially the Kaiser, of impending danger against going to war. With visions, as seen at that time, were emerging fulfilled and that fact is creating intense interest in his latest prophecies. He predicts that America is to be involved in five big wars within 14 next thirty years. Some of those will be a complication with Canada. He says that about 1925, war will break out between England and India, beginning with a rising in Northern India. The English will be driven into the sea and 25,000,000 in that war. Decisive battles will be fought at Calcutta and Delhi. Franco-Spanish War. Egypt and other African colonies will follow the example of India in a series of uprisings. In 1930 France and Spain will be involved in a war. In 1932 Britain torn with internal dissensions and confeting revolutionary currents until 1958 before the country settles down and becomes quiet again. Johanson forecasts a French-Russian alliance, and says that in the Summer of 1953 France will invade India. Russia is included in wedgeed, ending in the capitulation of the Scandinavian peninsula. France's victories will be large, due to enormous air fleets, in which the French are the most powerful. The prophet's visions picture great revolutionary movements throughout Europe. Houston, Texas, Mar. 19,—(Pacific News Bureau)—The American Mutual Benefit Association, one of the largest and most successful colored organizations in Texas, and whose headquarters is in this city, has established its second branch office in California. Several months ago the American Mutual invaded the Pacific Coast and opened up Southern California headquarters for the supervision of Treasurer W. B. Cogle, and Manager Normon Houston. Encouraged by their success in Southern California, a branch office for the headquarters of Northern California was established.

MAKES APPEAL FOR FUNDS TO SUPPORT WORK Secretary Johnson Asks Aid on Basis of Work Done by Association URGES BRANCH MEMBERSHIP Peonage and Lynching Hard Hit by Organization, Officers Claim New York, Mar, 23—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, today made an Easter-time appeal to colored citizens throughout the United States to support the work of the Association. The appeal is signed by James Weldon Johnson is as follows: Want Liberal Support. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People goes before the colored people of America, standing on its record of accomplishment, and the work by liberal financial support. Let me only briefly recall a few of the Association's accomplishments: 1. We have delivered a body blow at peonage in America by fighting the cases of the condemned Arkansas farmers tied to the Arkansas State supreme Court, winning a reversal in the cases of five defendants upon which the cases of 74 others in prison now hinge. 2. American lynching has been made a world-wide issue. The N.A.A. lynching Bill thouh it failed to engage in the Senate after being forced through the House of Representatives, is not yet dead. 3. We have taught the Southern States that they cannot extradite colored men where they are lynching instead of a fair trial. 4. In every part of the country, the N. A. A. C. P. interests itself in legal defense, and as far as its meager means permit, employs lawyers to defend them and prevents gross injustice against the Negro in America. Urge Joining Branches. This work costs money. If it is to continue as it has in the past, then colored Americans must give and give generously. The N. A. A. C. P. publishes a newsletter for every cent received and expended. We make this Easter-time appeal, confident that the record of our achievement will speak for itself. The Branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People throughout the country will drive for membership. You can help the Association by joining the branch in your community. If there is no branch there, you can help by sending your contribution, by check or money order, to J. E. Spingarn, Treasurer 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City.

ADVERTISE IN THE APPEAL THE DEPENDABLE MEDIUM BY H HOUSE Dyer Presented Cane By Philippine Colony New York, Mar. 23.—Representative Leonidas C. Dyer of Missouri who introduced the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the House of Representatives has written to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, telling how, on a recent visit to the Philippine Islands, he was presented with a beautiful cane by colored citizens, resident in Manila in recognition of his services in behalf of the Anti-Lynching Bill. His letter says: "During my recent visit to the Orient and while at Manila, P. I, I was waited upon by a committee of colored citizens of the United States, resident in Manila, presented to me very beautiful cane. "I thought you might be interested in this. It was very much appreciated by me." PICKENS CLEARS UP HELL ARTICLE Author Say Important Words Were Omitted, Giving False Impression New York—In a statement made public last week, Dr. William Pickens points out to the critics of his article on religion in the February Messenger magazine that he has been misquired and has accused him of saying: "Our fathers used to say: "A false report can travel 40 leagues while the true report is pulling its boots on." The writer of this editorial said recently and incidentally among other things that he does not believe in a material hell, a material heaven, or universal bodily resurrection. The reporters of these words, perhaps to "boil down" (or to boil over) things, dropped the subject out anyway, "obviously," and reported: "Pickens says no hell, no heaven, no resurrection." That is just as if we would say: "There is no golden moon," and some fellow would report: "Pickens says no hell, no heaven, no resurrection." Most of the intelligent and all of the younger preachers we know, say also that these things are not material, but that they are spiritual. So that we did not regard ourselves as divine out any answer information. In the last 20 years we have heard, we supose, thousands of ministers use these terms, and none of the intelligent ones ever spoke of a fire-brimstone hell or a golden heaven, except as figures of speech. People will learn by and by that it is risky to comment on any important report, unless we first verify the report. We must out an important qualifying word of a proposition, is to change the proposition, is to make another proposition. So we say: "Lies are like snowballs—the bigger they grow."

GARVEY MUST PAY BILL OF $1,700 FOR JAZZ New York, Mar. —Jazz must be paid for, a jury in the City Court decided yesterday in the case of William Isles, colored, against the Universal Negro Improvement Association and the Union of Common League. On behalf of eightteen fellow dispensers of syngocated harmony, Isles sued for $1,700 due the Black Star Line Band for providing the above mentioned harmony at association meetings in Liberty Hall. The band severed relations with the association last month. It has been mentioned that our or our colleague Liberty Hall, but objected when asked to play at a Democratic meeting in the same place—nothing against the Democrats, just a case of not believing in overtime work without overtime wages. But when that matter was settled by bank disappending, there was still money, $1,700. Jury took twenty-due minutes to announce a verdict of $1,739.57 for the plaintiff. "Yours very truly, "L. C.

BRYAN NOW DECLARES FOR WHITE SUPREMACY Commoner Changes Views to Fit Mood of New Neighbors in Florida Washington—Mr. Bryan left Nebraska for Nebraska's good and has been living in Florida during the past ten years. He wanted to be elected Senator in the last shake up in Florida but he failed to connect. The Boston Christian Science Monitor's Washington correspondent reports Mr. Bryan as follow: "He argued that the Jeffersonian doctrine about 'all men being created free and equal' could not be literally interpreted or enforced where there is a manifest inferiority as between men of similar condition and another. Amid such condition, the civilization, he said, would and must be the ascendant factor. As such ascendancy has prevailed in the South, Mr. Bryan pointed out, it had made for justice for the black under laws, which are fashioned by whites, protected blacks and their rights in full measure. "Mr. Bryan told how that for a decade he had seen those laws at work. They had convinced him no other system was possible. Men and women were both light and the south's way of meeting its race problem to be reprehensible, speedily would realize the unwisdom of such criticism, once they had, as he had had, direct contact with the real Bryan with the real method is imprecise, preferable to the 'theocratic doctrines of Massachusetts or the experiment of Illinois,' INDIANS ON WARPATH SHOCK STAID GOTHAM Defective Page (Crusader Service) New York, March 23—Three Iroquois Indians got more dwarfwater than was good for them yesterday afternoon, went on the war path and descended with whoops worthy of their ancestors upon the corner of Myrtle Avenue and Bridge Street, two blocks from the heart of the shopping district.

Chesterton, the English writer in a recent address on prohibition, made a typical G. K. C. remark when he asked how a nation which permits colored Americans to be lynched and burned alive "has any right to set itself up as an exemplar of morality for the rest of the world." In another column we print the exceedingly interesting reply of an editorial writer on the St. Paul Daily News. Prohibition has all of a sudden become a question of efficiency; it never was a moral question; it came simply and purely as a means of increasing the efficiency of the Americans. All this, of course, since the comparative morality of lynching and burning humans has been brought into the discussion. Until now, that objection that has been made against the Eighteenth amendment has been made on the grounds that it attempts to regulate private morality. Candidates have been swept into office upon the single plank of objection to the taking away of "liberty" by the amendment. Not a little of Governor Al Smith's plurality was due to this kind of a plank. It would never do, however, to admit that Americans are trying to regulate morals by prohibiting the manufacture and sale of liquor. That would throw their moral stand open to such nasty and inconvenient questions as Mr. Chesterton's. Hence we dodge the issue and set upon a subordinate argument for prohibition as the main one. The hope that Mr. Chesterton or any one of lesser intelligence will be deceived by this argument is in vain. He, with others, can still ask why Americans moralists and sentimentalists worry about "barbarians," "atrocities," and "outrages" in every corner of the world except within the borders of the United States. We would like to hear the writer of The News or any other paper explain why an atrocity committed by the Turks, say, on the Armenians is more deserving of the attention of American moralists and humanitarians than an atrocity committed by a Georgia mob on a black man? The fundamental point is that the morality of Americans, is hypocritical and opportunistic, and no amount of word fencing such as the "Take It or Leave It" editorial can hide the acts of Americans, which Mr. Chesterton has seen so clearly and interpreted so accurately. TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT Gilbert Chesterton, English writer, ridicules our prohibition as "that curious colonial experiment across on the other side." Chesterton, who has mental hyperacidity, asks how a nation which permits negroes to be lynched and burned alive "has any right to set itself up as an exemplar of morality" for the rest of the world. The answer to this is that the average American doesn't care whether the rest of the world drinks or not, and knows it's none of his business. But get this, Ches: Prohibition came in America not as a moral question, but as an economic one—a simple matter of efficiency. Wet England eventually will have prohibition, or be unable to compete in foreign trade with dry America. Liquor lowers efficiency. THE NULLIFIERS Any American citizen, even though he has no interest in prohibition, cannot fail to be impressed by the discrepancy between the eagerness displayed in the south for the enforcement of the prohibition amendment and the expressed determination to nullify the thirteenth and fourteenth amendments to the same constitution Permit me to offer a quotation from an editorial attributed by our press clipping agency to the Columbia (S.C.) state of Feb. 10: "Is it any wonder that with the constant menace of Negro rule under the system of 'universal manhood suffrage' decreed for the south by the north, and the representatives of civ- THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgmen the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the counten the hearts of friend I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. ilization here took measures to restrict that suffrage and perpetuate civilization?" This paragraph constitutes one of innumerable public admissions by southern citizens, newspaper editors and public men that the United States constitution is to continue being made a scrap of paper when the white southerner does not happen to like its provisions. It remains a question whether there is greater danger to civilization in permitting the colored man to exercise his constitutional prerogatives or in nullifying the basic document of that civilization at the will of dominant majorities. (James Weldon Johnson to the Chicago Daily News.) OUT OF THE MOUTH OF BABES (Chicago, Evening Post.) Here is wisdom, O, ye poets and essayists and fiction writers! Here is wisdom from the mouth of a babe. May we, in our own craft, lay it to heart. Miss Levine, who edits the Boys and Girls' Post, has just shown us a poem in three stanzas contributed by one of her young readers, to which the author appends the following postscript: "There is much more to write, but it spoils the poem." Blessed infant, who taught thee this golden secret of the writing art, this secret which so many never learn, though they live to be bent and gray in the service of letters? You are too young yet to know how many a poem and essay and book, how many an editorial has been spilled by the needless word, the padding line the uninspired elaboration. But if you will cherish this secret, live by it in the realm of intellect and imagination, write by it in the joy of expression and creation, you may yet earn the glad praise of critics who know better than they can perform. HOME BUYERS MUST HURRY (St. Paul, Pioneer Press.) Demand for homes and home building sites in St. Paul is stronger than it has been for years. No better evidence of reviving prosperity and confidence in the future could be found than this fact. After the brisk building campaign of last year, especially of residences and apartment houses, the present rush to buy cannot be attributed to much greater shortage in the supply than in 1922, inadequate as it is. The explanation is the prospective severe dreath of houses on account of the Ford plant and other new business establishments, with the consequent great increase in population. The homeless citizen—meaning the one who does not own his habitation—is coming to a decision to buy or build. He has hesitated in the past, because of a doubt whether present values of real estate would be maintained. If he is wise, he is no longer in doubt, but is sure that values are bound to rise. This consideration is a vital one when one is not able to pay all cash for a home. If he has 1,000 or $1,500 for a first payment, he need not fear to undertake building on the contract plan or taking over another person's contract, because the home will be worth, while he is paying for it and when he has it clear, as much or more than he agrees to pay. The spring demand by house buyers has set in much earlier than usual. Realtors report more home seekers in the middle of March than ordinarily appear in the second week in April. Not only are there more in the market than at any time in THE SIN OF To sin by silent protest makes co-The human race has test.

The lesson of this story is that those who need a home in the near future and cannot wait to build will have to hurry to get what they want, as every day takes some desirable building out of the market. Those who intend to build cannot afford to delay while desirable sites are advancing in price. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Editor, The Appeal: “Language”, said Talleyrand, “is used to conceal thought.” Now this requires an adroit hand; the thought ought to defy detection. Of the U. N. I. A. letter, written to Mayo McShane by some women of the New Orleans branch of Garvey’s organization, this can not be said. An angry gesture betrays them. They more than the Crowd” the newspaper to public view their hatred for ‘certain persons of importance.’ I repeat the paragraph: “We are not members of the Negro ‘400’ of New Orleans, which is composed of that class who are spending their time imitating the rich whites with card parties, eating parties, and studying Spanish so as to be able to pass for anything but a Negro, thereby getting Is there not something menacing, sinister, here? Here? Is this not stirring race hatred with a vengeance? What is there more provocative to white Southern wrath than this insinuating "spending their time imitating the rich whites" and "studying Spanish so as to be able to pass for anything more sinister" thereby getting a chance to associate with you." Mark that last, especially! In 1918, Dr. W. E. B, DuBois attributed the riots in Washington, in part, "to the infliction of a large number of Southerners (white) into Washington, and to the presence in Washington, and to the way they treatedives of the educated, well-dressed class of Negroes which white racial antagonists dislike." One takes it, that this "four hundred" is composed of a circle of friends, who, with definition, are not copied from others, enjoy themselves and are at ease with one another. One can not help but perceive a billious envy in this fulmination of Octavia Franklin, Essie Hathaway and Dan. Flanss. The letter that these women so angrily wrote to their mayor contains wretched English. Their "four hundred" they say is cultivating Spanish. Might it not be well for G. W. Hathaway and Essie Hathaway and Octavia Franklin, study English? They wrote, I believe, not because they loved "Jim Crowem" more but because they loved their "400 less"; not because they loved "400 more"; not because they were Neo-unity, because they were by a consciousness of their inferiority. COLORED MINFRS NOT TO DIG COAL IN RUHR (Crusader Service.) Washington, Mar. 16. — Official denial was made by the French Embassy today of reports that American colored miners are to be imported into the Ruhr to operate the mines in lace of German workmen. The embassy officials did not go into details beyond stating the reports are false. At the State Department it was said this Government had received no information supoprting the story. Washington, Mar. 16. —Secretary of State Hughes has never been consulted regarding the plan of Harry V. Gupta, international detective, to transport 5,000 miners from West Virginia to the Ruhr coal fields, it is learned at the State Department. INSIST MASCOT BE SAVED FIRST Crew Refuses to Budge From Sinking Ship Until Small Dog Is Resoued. BECOMES HELPLESS IN GALE Italian Freighter Montello Succumbs to Mid-Atlantic Storm After Days and Nights of Ceaseless Struggle. New York—The Giuseppe Verdi steamed into port, two days late from Naples, with graphic details of the rescue of the crew of the Italian freighter Montello, which succumbed to a mid-Atlantic storm. The rescued men—33 in all—were aboard, one of them in sick bay with a cracked skull and smashed feet. On January 10 the Monte salvo sailed from Philadelphia for Marselles, her wheat-filled holds pushing her far beyond the water, and about 400 miles north of Bernuda, it encountered, a whistling norwest. MILITARY POLICE "Nanett," the Montello's Mascot. For three bleak days, with her crew never out of oilskins, straining engines shoved the Montello ahead at eight knots. On Monday night at 10 o'clock she healed over. Her rudder chains had jammed. Then they had broken. The vessel was helpless 400 miles from land and in a hurricane sea. Then the bulked grain shifted and the ship listed. Ship Fills Rapidly. Waves washed the deck at every lunge. The coal bunkers floated and water poured into the ship faster than the exhausted men could pump it out. It was not until 8 o'clock Tuesday morning that Capt. Sturse permitted Wireless Operator Tomasco Montanari to ask aid. The Verdil, 100 miles away answered, and arrived at 3 o'clock that afternoon. It was impossible to launch boats in that sea. So the Verdl, with 610 passengers aboard, spent the night circled about the waterlogged Montello, whose decks now were continually under water. The Verdl's passengers knelt in prayer. Among them knelt four nuns. The ship's chaplain, Gluseppe Verdl, chanted the Te Deum, and plaintive Italian voices repeated it. Boat is Launched. The sea thwarted an effort to launch a boat at dawn. At 7:30 the Montello got a boat overboard. The first lowered into the heaving shell was the Montello's mascot, Nanetti, a water spaniel. Twenty-two men followed the dog. The crew had refused to budge until the pup was saved. A battle of an hour and a half brought the weary sailors close to the Verdl's side. As they grasped for lines and life belts, a swell washed over their boat and eleven went overboard. All were saved. A half hour later First Officer Stagnaro and members of the Verdi's crew rescued the eleven remaining aboard the Montello. The freighter sank as the Verdi turned her nose toward New York. BILLWOULD REGULATE SLEEP New Hampshire Legislator Protesta "Freak Measures"; One Probes Homes. Concord, N. H.—The speaker of the New Hampshire legislature protested against the introduction of "freek legislation" after four bills had been presented to the house. One bill would make eight hours' sleep in twenty-four compulsory; another provided for the appointment of a commission to live in all homes to determine whether they are happy. A third measure would enact that no woman shall marry her grandmother's son. The fourth would ordain that the Ku Klux Klan must not call meetings unless authorized by the kleagle. Meaneest Man.

One-night recently some person or persons entered a graveyard here and cut down several evergreen trees and carried them away. RESS CONGRESS URGES FREEDOM IN THE NEWS St. Louis, Mo., Mar. 16—A state court unrestricted transmission of news was issued by the Executive committee of the Press Congress of the World, following a meeting here today. "Before the next war comes, if it comes Governments and nations must convince that, in the long run, the United States will not start referring to the grand series of lies put over in the press during the last war." WHY WE SHOULD CARE FOR OUR TEETH. By E. S. WEBER, D. D. S. There is only one short period in life when the mouth is steril (free from bacteria) and that is just a few hours after birth. From the 6th to the 10th hours it begins to have a bacterial flora, recognizable at the mouth by microscopic examination. The first species found are various coci (staphylococci, Streptococci, the pigment-forming coci of the air) and the spore bearing air bacteria. From this time on the mouth is the normal habitat for these bacteria, and they are genic or disease producing bacteria. With the appearance of the teeth, the flora which was previously uniform throughout the mouth, changes; there are added certain other species which live by preference in the ginic or interproximal spaces. They are constant in the asteristic mouth bacteria, but their presence is to be explained not by any change in the constitution of the tissues of the mouth, but in the formation of spaces where food material may accumulate and produce infection may occur. This is the reason this then is one of the reasons why we should take care of our teeth. There are some essentials necessary for the growth and life of bacteria, namely, light, heat, moister, food, and air. All these essentials are found in the mouth, hence we must imitate the mouth our mouths is so healthy and sanitary condition to arrest the growth and multiplication of these germs. It is through their growth and multiplication that they become strong and more virulent (very venomous; capable of producing disease). This growth is encouraged when the mouth is neglected and when we do not surround around the teeth giving them an abundant supply of food to live on. Decayed teeth also encourage their growth, because a decayed tooth is plainly speaking a rotten tooth, which harbors rotten and putresse matter, and it is in this kind of medium that bacteria derive and multiply more easily. How significant it is to keep the mouth free from deposits and broken down decayed teeth. By keeping the mouth so, we automatically build up a strong power of resistance, a fortification, as it were, to subdue the attacks of the bacteria. Bacteria are rightly called "COW" because they are the most common an area that is strongly fortified. They lie in wait of some area where the resistance has been lowered, where the fortification has been torn down. There is where they lodge and cause constant destruction to the weakened area. We have to our teeth all sorts of things can happen, such as, caries (decay of the teeth), spungy bleeding gums, foul breath, gingivitis (inflammation of the gums), and subsequent pyorrhea of the gums, abscessed teeth, and loss of the teeth entirely. From some of the conditions aforementioned in the previous chapter, Science has discovered that broken down abscessed teeth and pyorrhea of the gums have been the source of many diseases such as, rheumatism, stomach disorders, heart diseases, infections in the eye, ear, nose and mouth, and so on, fact, such conditions can be the source of disease to the organs that are nourished through the blood stream. The question might arise as to how pyrrohea or abscessed teeth cause such disorders? For purpose of ex-amination, a patient who has neglected his mouth to the extent that pyrrohea has set in, in the real sense of the word, or he has some broken down abscessed teeth. The case of the pyrroytic patient, he is constantly swallowing these germs along with his food, saliva, and drinks. By this process these germs are introduced into the stomach where the food is partially prepared for the nourishment of the body. These germs of course accompany the food that is prepared for the nourishment of the body and its organs. Now, as stated before, bacteria are "COW, ABS, ABS, ABS, pick the weakest organ for lodgment, which lung, a stomach, a heart, or any of the vital organs. When they find one that is weak they constantly attack it until they have overpowered it. By these constant attacks they will lower the germ which an extent that any disease germ can gain entrance and produce disease. In the case of the patient with abscessed teeth, the process is the same, except that the bacteria get into the blood stream directly, through the blood vessels and vymphs which the mouth contains. The mouth is called "THE GATEWAY TO INFECTION," and this is true in every sense of the word. Everything that we give our system for nourishment must primarily go through or rather pass through the mouth in a sanitary condition, free from all deposits, all decayed teeth, anticidia conditions, and abscessed teeth.

Baltimore, Md., Mar. 16.—For the first time in the history of Baltimore, colored women were in attendance at the annual G. O. P. banquet. Headed by Miss Hazel MacBeth, vice-chairman of the 14th ward, a delegation of colored women were seated at tables at the great political banquet recently in Hazeraz Hall. Mayor Broening, the "next Mayor of Baltimore," was the main speaker, Miss Pearl A. Eader urged the women to vote saying, "Women should not call politics a nasty game, sit sugely at home, then complain of unsatisfactory officials whom they have made no effort in helping to choose." Miss Hazel MacBeth, the leader of the city education, produced of the city schools, a prominent and political worker, and a member of one of the best known pioneer families of the city. New York, Mar, 16—The will of Horatio P. Howard, who died Feb. 20, at 205 W. 11th street, gives $5,000 to institute to establish scholarships for deserving colored students to be known as the Captain Paul Cuffee Scholarships. The residuary estate includes antigues. The will was filed yesterday. NAVY KEEPS UP SALVAGE WORK Service Developed During the World War Proves Important in Peace. PROFITS FROM EXPERIENCE Most Complete and Modern Salvage Vessels Ever Built Are Doing Good Service Along the Coasts—Remarkable Feats. Washington—One of the interesting developments in the United States navy as the result of wartime experience was the building up of a salvage service, designed to aid in the saving of wrecked ships and the recovery of cargoes and valuable ship's gear. When the country entered the World war the navy possessed no regular salvage service, although collections of salvaging machinery had been made at several depots, and apparatus and been brought to a high degree of efficiency. But this was used mostly in connection with experimental work in dring at various targets simulating vessels. However, when the gathering of United States vessels, large and small, in European harbors resulted in many incidental minor accidents, and the operations of enemy submarines called for equipment to save costly boats and their cargos, the navy was quick to respond. The ship soon repaid the cost of organization, but has since resulted in great savings. Establish Salvage Stations. Establish Salvage Stations. The first step the navy took was the establishment of a section of the bureau of construction and repair, draw personnel and equipment from private salvaging companies. Salvage stations were established along the Atlantic coast by taking over many private concerns, and by August, 1917, a salvage unit had arrived in France. This consisted of the navy's first salvage vessel, the U. S. S. Favorite, a 1,200-ton ship equipped with the finest tools and machinery for recovering wrecked vessels. She was stocked with diving equipment, pumps, and cutting and welding tools for both underwater and surface work. A 25-ton derrick was additions. Immediately upon her arrival in France she started salvaging operations that kept her buoy with not an idle day for eighteen months. Her work consisted in pulling boats, large and small, off the beaches, raising them off the bottom, rescuing torpedoed ships and towing disabled ships to port. The vessel played an important part in repairing the transport Mount Vernon, which was torpedoed after leaving Breast, and then placed a cofferdam, the largest that has ever been installed in a disabled ship, on the U. S. Westbridge. Almost any one of the vessels the salvage ship rescued resulted in saving more than the cost of outfitting and maintaining her. Joined by Two Others. This vessel was shortly joined by two others, the Chesapeake and the Manna Hata, all equipped with the most modern gear, and though they continued to do their valuable work for many months, it was not a spectacular task and the men who imperfect their lives received little recognition. One of the important feats they accomplished was the salvage of the British vessel Narragransett, after the attempt had been given up by the British. The American ships came along with advice and equipment that made a success of what had appeared a hopeless task. The Favorite, while in France, was the most complete and modern salvage ever sent out, and attracted the attention of the foremost American investigations of the infall of 1919, all salvaging operations having closed, the Favorite returned home, and the other two ships were sold to a British salvage concern with full equipment. The former then was placed in the service of the Pana canal, where she is now doing herloe work. However, the wartime experience showed the navy the need of such vessels, so two were equipped especially for the purpose, the Falcon and the Widgeon. They are comparatively small, strongly built and have the finest equipment. They can work in rough and shallow waters where other vessels could not venture. The Widgeon, they are used on the west coast while the Falcon, which has been in service along the Atlantic for some time, has already been valuable in the recovery of two submarines sunk in accidents. HITS EXCUSE-ME-BOSS CLUB New York City Puts Beggars on Card Index System and Provides for Work. New York.—The thousands of members of what is known on Broadway as the "Excuse-Me-Mister club" must either go to work or leave the city, under a decree made public here. One hundred organizations have united with the city administration to rid the metropolis of thousands of beggars who have drifted here for the winter to lure the easy dime from naive New Yorkers. A card index system is planned, recording the biography of pre-eminent "panhandlers." BOY SCOUTS (Conducted by National Council of the Boy Scouts of America.) BOY SCOUTS AND OTHER BOYS "Fifty thousand boy scouts judiciously placed in Chicago would virtually put the delinquent department of the juvenile court out of business," says Judge Victor P. Arnold of the Juvenile court, Cook county, Illinois. "The scout program provides for the growing boy the opportunity of learning by doing, fills in his leisure so completely that he seidom has the opportunity or inclination to associate with questionable companions, or to do any of the hundred and one things that a real American boy can do when time hangs heavily on the hands. It is the most perfect program ever given to the boyhood of the world, training for citizenship through service." Scouting's powerful influence in character "training and citizenship building is recognized by observing people everywhere. The prevention of juvenile delinquency and the respect for law and order that the boy scout gains is a wonderful result of the training. Scouting has completely turned around the old idea that boys and police are natural enemies. Today the boy scout stands for law and order, and is the policeman's co-worker and friend. Troop 96 of Minneapolis has the privilege of holding its meetings in the First Precinct Police station, and the police official in charge of the district declares that "The scouts know the police as their friends and helpers." Boy scouts have acted under direction of the police in practically every city of the country, in directing traffic during congestion, in assisting children across streets, in patrolling at parades, and in performing first-aid in times of emergency and disaster. The boy scout movement is converting "the gang" into groups of healthy, wholesome boys, and directing their energy to community welfare and service to others. Guardians of public safety In official co-operation with the police is a new role which scouts of Greater New York will soon fill, if plans mature which are now under consideration by officials of the New York police department and officials of the Boy-Scouts of America. The boys will have opportunity to qualify through certain regulated work as municipal aldes. A method will be worked out whereby scouts will in turn be permitted to do community work. Honor awards will be given to scouts performing outstanding work in community safety. SANITARIUM HAS TROOP Scouting is for every boy. There are troops of boys with all their faculties and troops of deaf, dumb, blind and crippled scouts. Sick or well, a "boy is a boy for a that," with the same hopes and ambitions. At the Westfield (Mass.) Sanitarium for Tuberculosis, a most successful troop of 75 boys is in operation. The patient scouts hall with glee their instructors when they come to the sanitarium, and because the scouts have the entire week to study up, they have become very proficient in all tests, passing except hiking and swimming which are beyond their strength, and keep their corps of examiners very busy. Other authorities say the program has meant much to boys in their illness, because of the emphasis on cheerfulness, thought for others, out-of-door life and its incentive to a boy to keep physically fit, mentally awake and morally straight. When a scout is cured, the santarium keeps in touch with the local scout executive, sees that the boy gets into a troop in his home town, so that he will continue his out-of-door life, and become what scouting would have him, a sturdy man fitted for citizenship responsibilities. GOOD TURN FOR DALLAS The Dalias script marked up another civic good turn when he recorded among recent activities, the assistance the scouts rendered at the City Fair association, in delivering tickets for the sale of thrift tickets sold for the purpose of erecting a manufacturing and automobile exhibition hall. BOY SCOUTS DO GOOD SERVICE Troop 1, Huntington Park, Cal., recently distributed 5,000 pieces of school literature and 3,000 Parent-Teachers' association notices. BOY SCOUTS' GOOD TURN Good turns by radio are a specialty with Troop 5, Providence, R. I. Recently these boys installed a radio set in the largest ward of the Rhode Island hospital, and shifted the serial from time to time so that all the patients could in turn be entertained. At Christmas time the boys repeated this good turn, and in addition installed a set of their own construction in the children's ward, and presented it to the small patients for their own use.

Income Tax Facts No. 6 To avoid penalty, income tax returns must be filed with the collector of internal revenue for the district in which the taxpayer lives or has principal place of business on or before midnight of March 15, 1923. Where additional time is required because of illness or absence of the taxpayer from home, the collector may grant, upon application before the return is due, March 15, an extension of not to exceed 30 days. If the return is not made, it will be within the 30 days extension period a request for a further extension must be made to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, Washington, D. C. Collectors have not authority to grant an extension exceeding 30 days. Failure to make a return on time subjects the delinquent to a penalty of $1,000 and an additional penalty of 25 per cent of the amount of tax due. If the failure is willful, however, or an attempt is made to evade the tax by filing a false return, the offender is liable to imprisonment and to a fine of not more than $10,000 and costs. in addition to a penalty of 50 per cent of the amount of tax evaded.

Schuneman Evans "The House of Better Values" Dale_0482 Great Northern Railway Company for a series of talks to its patrons, its employes, and the general public concerning transportation problems common to all. There is an old saying that you cannot hate a man when you are well acquainted with him. Let us get better acquainted and cultivate good will. The entire business activity of the Great Northern's territory is so dependent upon good transportation at low rates that no farmer or business man can afford to be hostile to the Great Northern. Every blow aimed at the railroad, every act of the legislature imposing needless regulations or burdens of expense upon the railroad, damages other business and agriculture as surely as if aimed directly at them. What hurts them, hurts the railroad, and what hurts the railroad hurts them. If their business is poor, the earnings of the railroad decrease; and if the railroad's business is poor or if its expenses are needlessly increased, that is a double injury to other business: First, it stops the enlargement and improvement of facilities necessary to furnish good railroad service when needed; and second, it makes higher rates necessary, because whatever increases the cost of producing transportation adds ultimately to the expense of other business. In the end, all transportation costs must be paid by the public. Good feeling is an essential to the success of all partnerships. This one includes not only the railroad and all the people along its lines, but all railroad employees as well. If they will think well and speak well of their employer, realizing that whatever hurts one hurts the other, it will help amazingly to prevent misunderstanding and promote the welfare of both. It will be our aim in subsequent talks to make these truths clear and plain to everyone. OUR BUSINESS IS YOUR BUSINESS LOUIS W. HILL Chairman of the Board.

Boy scouts, always-on congenial terms with: the weather man, -are biking, in Increasing numbers, to winter week- end camp sites to enjoy the adventure ‘and thrill of life in the open. Skating, snowshoeing, skiing, toboggantig, fish- Ing through’ a hole in the ice—these are part of the fun that the sturdy scout gets from the experience: Scout fathers are joining in, More than one week-end camp has welcomed scout “dads” who through scouting activi- ties are enjoying splendid comradeship with thelr sons, ‘Three big things in any winter scout camp are: freedom, food, and fun: freedom, under good leadership, for a boy to discover his own talents; food, and plenty of it; and fun with the boys’ own trademark on it, These re- sult in Americanism, appetite, and ad- ventare—three big factors in the scout- ing’s mental, physical and moral prep- aration for the future citizenship. ‘The winter camp offers more adven- ture than the summer camp, It is more strenuous and more thrilling. Breaking ice in the morning to get water, pulling supplies on sleds over the snows, building radio communica- on in the forest so that the folks at home can hear often of camp doings, piling wood around a gorgeous camp fire—are duties for real, red-blooded wcouts. Each new snowfall presents a clear Page on which storles of the open are ‘written for scouts who know tracking and trailing. They may follow the trail of the fox, pursue the rabbit, learn the way to the home of the muskrat or beaver, and even discover how the fleld mice, pheasants, quail and game make thelr living during the winter months. For winter camping the boy must practice the scout motto—“Be Pre- pared.” He must have heavier shoes, well olled; extra thick socks, wool shirt or sweater, stocking cap, and ex- tra five pounds of wool blankets more than he requires in summer time. Pilgrimages in honor of famous men of scout deeds and character“have thelr place in the winter camp life. ‘The boys of Denver visit the grave of Buffalo Bill on the mountains near Denver. Scouts of the Middle West go to Lincoln's boyhood homes in Ken- tucky, southern Indiana and Dlinois, Chicago scouts visit the site of old Fort Dearborn. Philadelphia members spend Washington's birthday at Valley Forge, and New York lads journey to the tomb of Theodore Roosevelt. BOY SCOUT WINTER CAMPERS ee ( Se ee me .

SCOUTS FIND LOST BABY Scouts of Charleston, Ill, brought re Nef to an anxious home when they found two-year-old Robert Mahan, who had been lost for 12 hours, and deliv- ered him safe and sound to his rel- atives, Robert had strayed from a party of children who were nutting in the woods near Whetstone Ford. La- ter unable to find the little boy the children gave a frightened call for belp at ‘a house nearby. After a fruitless search by neighbors, word was sent to the Charleston scouts, Under their scoutinaster, a number of the Older boys hiked rapidly to the spot where the child had been seen last. There they divided into squads and began their search. Within a quarter of an hour they came upon the baby asleep In the hollow of tree 15 feet from a tall bluff, TEXAS BOY SCOUTS’ RECORD ‘The boy scout spirit of service was well interpreted at the recent South ‘Texas State fair, where the. scouts stood at all times to help. In“addl- tion to performing other good turns, the ‘boys found 72 lost children, as traffic officers handled six parades, acted as runners for officers of the fair asso- elation, furnished escorts for children during the baby parade, parked auto mobiles in the fair grounds, met all in- corfiing trains, and maintained an in- formation bureau.
