Tulsa Leads World BILLY McCLAIN, GLOEE TROTTER and Famous Ring Promoter Assumes New Role. Gives Tulsa First and Only Colored Sport Paper. That Tulsa is far ahead of any other city in the world, at least in one respect, is a fact recently proven by the publication of The Referee, a colored sport paper devoted to the interest of the sport and theatrical world particularly as pertaining to the race. To Billy McClain, president of the Palm Garden Athletic Club and famous boxing promoter of world-wide fame is due the credit for giving this very valuable publication to Tulsa and the world, because doubtless this is the only publication of its kind in the world, edited and printed by colored people, and the Tulsa Star Printing and Publishing Company has the honor of printing. The Referee is rapidly taking on the popularity of its editor and the circulation is growing in great leaps and bounds. McClain has just recently obtained a state charter for his club which is capitalized for $10,000.00 and has already sold several hundred dollars worth of stock. Billy McClain has done more for the permanent good of the boxing game than any other one man in Tulsa and he is now prepared to do even more. Tulsa may well feel proud of Billy and the Referee.

American Stock Raisers Co-operate With Food Administration in Conservation Measures. It is probable that Europe for many years after the war will look to a great extent to America for its meat supply. Europe's herds are dwindling under war's demands faster than they can be replenished. When the German armies retired from occupied portions of France and Belgium approximately 1,800,000 head of cattle were appropriated. This addition virtually safeguarded Germany from cattle shortage other nations now suffer. In England some 2,400,000 acres of grass lands have by compulsory measures been forced into grain production, thus reducing pasturage and hay lands. A declining scale of maximum meat prices for live cattle was ordained in England, as follows: For September, $17.76 per hundred pounds; October, $17.28; November and December, $16.08, and for January, $14.40. The evident intent of this measure was to drive the beef animals into market as soon as possible. According to official French figures, the cattle of France have decreased to a total of 12,341,900 as compared with 14,807,000 in 1913. Today, due to lack of forage principally, France is producing only one gallon of milk where before the war two and one-half gallons were produced. Meantime the United States food administration has taken steps to conserve our flocks and herds and to increase their numbers. The stock breeders of this country show a disposition to co-operate with the government in this. For many years it has been a practice among many of the dairy people of this country to kill male calves at birth and in many instances the females if not needed to replenish their herds rather than go to the expense of maturing them into veal. The high prices of meat caused the virtual discontinuance of this killing. Another encouraging fact is 75 per cent. of calves killed for veal this year were males. Somebody has very aptly said that the wars of the world have been won with grease, meaning that bacon and hard have been as essential to success in war as powder, which is true. The hogs of Europe have been very greatly sacrificed to present day needs. This makes the American burden all the more heavy and makes doubly essential an increased pork production in this nation. In Italy grain is now forbidden to be fed to hogs. In Denmark under a recent order one-fourth of the hogs were ordered to be killed. It is estimated that one-half have now been killed. DEMOCRACY NEEDED HERE IN TUSA. By J. B. S. Let us wake up and discuss soberly and rationally the conditions of the colored people in Tulsa. The revolutionary war was brought on by taxation without representation. The people had no voice in the making of the laws by which they were governed. They were mere figure heads. The laws were made in England and those who enforced the laws were appointed by the King. We as citizens of Oklahoma are entitled to all the rights and privileges of any other citizen, be he natural or foreign born. Do We Have Them? There are six departments in the county court house. There are scores of clerks employed. Have we a representative? They have such a way of political juggling that they bar us from jury service in cases where one of our race is involved. And they know when they deny us those privileges that they are violating the Constitution of the United States. The City of Tulsa and county have 30 or 40 colored teachers, more or less, who get their appointment through white officials, who do not know anything about their moral qualification and don't care anything about it. And don't know very much more about their intellectual qualification, because they don't take time to find out about it. How can they know about their morals? They don't associate with them and can't know them. And I have heard quite a few of those teachers boast and say that I don't get my job through the colored people. I will do as I please, the white man gives me the job, and the white man says anything is good enough for the colored people. There could not be a more flagrant traversity of justice perpetrated on any people who are segregated in a district of a thousand children or more. And not a citizen of our district is allowed a voice in the selection of our teachers. Every black man should rise in his might and demand for the good of the race that we should have a representative in some way to advise or say who shall teach our children in our schools. Then again we have the city government, operated under four departments. Have we a representative in any clerical department? No, not one. We have a duty which we owe not only to our children and children's children. That after we have borne the burden to educate them, to furnish them something to do in after life. But to rise as one man and demand the recognition which as citizens are due us. We have men among us who are capable of filling any position in the gift of the people. They should say who should teach our children. Have we a representation in the post office? The civil service, as far as Tulsa is concerned, relative to our people is a farce. We have a man who stood the highest civil service examination. And they have successfully kept him from being appointed on account of his color. We can not hope to acquire in a moment the recognition which is due us, but with united effort, step by step with a strong unanimity of purpose, the wall of prydice will crumble before such a formidable onslaught. Education is a life time's job. It does not consist of what you can cram in your head in a few years in school or college, but a continual application of the means afforded to draw out at will those things which go to enlighten, broaden and educate. Just so with the race in Tulsa. If we unite our forces as one man, forgetting the past, determining to use whatever influence we have for the purpose of the betterment of the race, it will only b a short time before Tulsa will be a Chicago for our people. J. B. S. IF THIS WILL WIN THE WAR LET'S GO TO IT!

"According to reports from Washington, various Democratic Congressmen are dubious about the administration Railroad Bill, because they 'fear the proposed legislation with the Jim Crow laws of the South.' That is about what might have been expected. "The Democracy of the South is largely a Jim Crow Democracy. Nothing else matters much. To keep the Negro from voting, the Fifteenth Amendment has been nullified. To keep the Negro sober in order that he will work more steadily, the South proposes to fasten prohibition upon the rest of the country. To keep the Negro out of the white man's railroad cars is a subject that would naturally appeal to the average Southerner. It represents the one political principle to which he consistently adheres.

Japan, the island empire that defeated Russia some years a won recognition as a world power of the first rank, has resent war two years longer than the United States. In spite to Japanese troops are fighting with the Allies on any fronts, and the great Japanese battle fleet has kept in the submarine activities of North Europe. What is Japan's the world war? Japan, the island empire that defeated Russia some years ago, and thereby won recognition as a world power of the first rank, has been in the present war two years longer than the United States. In spite of this fact, no Japanese troops are fighting with the Allies on any of their several fronts, and the great Japanese battle fleet has kept itself far from the submarine activities of North Europe. What is Japan's attitude toward the world war? To M. Matsuoka, semi-official spokesman for his countrymen and now in this country representing influential Nippon newspapers, we are indebted for a clearing up of this subject. Very frankly M. Matsuoka states why Japan is not doing more for the cause of the allies and shrewdly suggests that there is a field, however, in which his country is eager to serve, even to the limit. Japan joined the allies in this war primarily to fulfill her part of the agreement in the Anglo-Japanese alliance. The Japanese people are proud of having done this successfully yet it is hardly advisable to expect them to do more at this time, for they are filled with the same mixture of curiosity, indifference and anxiety that was felt in the United States until very recently. On this point we let M. Matsuoka speak for himself: "Even yet she fails to see clearly how the issue of the war can be simply democracy against autocracy. She has observed the British treatment of Ireland; she feels the inconsistency between the American defense of democracy and the treatment of the Japanese in California and their exclusion from parts of the British empire. Naturally she questions whether democracy in the minds of Anglo-Saxons may not be, after all, something consciously or unconsciously intended for the occidental peoples. She notices, too, that the democratic Americans who feel sure that they are not imperialistic have built a chain of coaling stations and fortifications across the Pacific culminating in the Philippine Islands." More than this, continues our Nipponese writer, the sending of Japanese troops to Europe is against the will of the people, besides being physically impossible, because they care to fight only for causes that seem to them to involve the safety of their own land. Japan admires greatly the allied plan for world improvement in spite of its inconsistencies. As she looks around her and sees the fate of the major portion of Asia, she hesitates to co-operate to a greater degree with the allies until she is satisfied that the "victorious Anglo-Saxons will not constitute amenace to us politically or economically." Finally with Japanese politeness and tact, M. Matsuoka suggests the field in which his country would not hesitate to go the limit for the allies. In effect he states Japan's storehouses and factories are at their disposal and, he trusts, in their straightened circumstances, the allies will not hesitate to buy from Japan. "It will take a great many people to make up your armies and man your ships. There may be a great labor shortage. Very likely some things can be made more economically in Japan, and when your request comes, Japan will respond cheerfully." So much for the letter of M. Matsuoka. Now what does it all mean? First, that Japan is in the war in name only. Secondly, that Japan is not more interested in the war because she is suspicious of the allied war aims. Thirdly, Japan is anxious to take advantage of the war to build up her merchant marine. Of these three points colored people in the United States will be interested chiefly in the second. Four years of European war have not convinced Japan that the reasons for the struggle are anything else but economic and political. Both the Allies and Germany before the war were attempting to subject Asia. Both were formidable to Japan. If they fall out and fight, it will weaken both and cause them to confine their activities to home territory for a while. Most interesting, and this is the main point here, the Allies have not convinced Japan of the broad use of this term democracy. England has not used the Irish any milder since the war. America has not made itself an especially happy place for darker peoples since the war. Japan's conclusion is, therefore, that the democracy of the Allies means democracy for white people only.—Ex.

SUGAR CONTROL SAVED MILLIONS American Consumer Profited by $180,000,000—French Situation Helped. HOME PRICE HELD AT 9 CENTS This Nation's Sugar Supply Reduced to Seventy Per Cent. of Normal. Java Stocks Unavailable. Sugar control has saved the American public public $180,000,000, Herbert Hoover, United States food administrator declared the other day. He pointed out that sugar was selling for 11 cents a pound last August and that it would have advanced to 20 cents a pound, with the world short age as a stimulus, had not the food administration secured the co-operation of the refiners and wholesalers and fixed a sugar price that today enables housewives to buy sugar at from 83% to 9 cents a pound. "Every 1 cent raise in sugar from September 1 to January 1 means $18,000,000 to the American consumer," Mr. Hoover said. "Numbers of gentlemen will tell you that 20 cent sugar would have prevailed and the public robbed of $180,000,000 this year if we had not taken these actions." Later Mr. Hoover called attention to the fact that uncontrolled sugar advanced to 35 cents a pound during the Civil War France Got Our Sugar. Today the American public has been allotted 70 per cent. of its normal supply. Before the war the average annual household consumption here was 55 pounds a person. In England the annual consumption during the war is 24 pounds, and in France each person is allotted a little over one pound a month. "In August the French government found itself unable to maintain even this ration," Mr. Hoover declared. "An appeal was made to American France needed 100,000 tons. We agreed to fill this demand and up to December had shipped 85,426 tons. In the meantime an appeal was made to the American public to reduce its sugar consumption, and requests were made to distributors to supply the confectionary and sweet drinks trade with 50 per cent. of normal supply. This has been generally followed, although such regulations were voluntary, as the food administration had no authority to impose them." Domestic Price is $ 8 \frac{1}{2} $ to 9 Cents. Retail grocers throughout the country are supposed to take a profit of no more than 50 cents a hundred—half a cent a pound—on sugar. By reason of food administration regulations, binding refiners and wholesalers, the retailer is able today to buy sugar at from 8 to $1\frac{1}{2}$ cents a pound. This enables him to sell to the housewife at $1\frac{1}{2}$ to 9 cents a pound. There have been some violations of the sugar rulings. Mr. Hoover said recently: "Sales of sugar from 16 to 20 cents per pound have been reported and followed up vigorously and stopped and is evidence itself of the prices at which consumers would have been mulct had we not intervened. We have forfeited wholesalers' licenses in aggravated cases, and we have issued warnings to first offenders in a great many instances through our local administrators." Effect on Military Situation. American sugar stocks could be filled to normal very soon if ships could be sent to Java, where 250,000 tons of sugar is waiting for shipment. But the shipping situation is so acute that the nation cannot spare the eleven ships needed to transport this sugar. It would take the boats one year to haul 250,000 tons. In the same time they could be used for transporting 200,000 soldiers to France. The food administration believes that the American public will diminish its sugar consumption by 10 or 15 percent, when it is made clear that such sugar saving is a patriotic act and when it is understood that there are plenty of sweeteners available to take the place of sugar, such as honey or corn syrup. Why Shortage Exists. The three great sugar producing centers of the world are Germany, the West and East Indies. German sugar is, of course, used at home. The East Indian sugar is unavailable because of the ship shortage. While U boats made big inroads on the world's shipping, France and Italy ceased to be self sustaining in sugar manufacture. England in the meantime was cut off from German sugar—1,400,000 tons a year—because of the war. The result has been that the allied nations have been forced to turn to America and the West Indies for their sugar. at the EVOLUTION OF BOXING By BILLY McCLAIN Since boxing has caught the eyes of the United States government and is being recognized by the same, the game has come into the justice that has been due it so long. Looking back on the boxing game for the past twenty-five years, about the beginning of that time, you will find boxing in a bad standing; looked on by the highbrows as a very brutal kind of sport, as the means of a livelihood for uncouth low-brows, ruffians and bullies. Consequently boxing was outlawed from one state to another until there was hardly a state in the Union that legalized boxing. Of course, in those days, as today, the majority ruled, but the right prevailed, so we had boxing, even if we had to resort to barns, barges, woods and the open plains. It was some sport to see the boxers, promoters and the fans skipping and dodging from place to place to hold a bout, and many times whispering loud of one place for the benefit of the police and holding the bout in another place. Lots of times the cops would drag in the whole outfit—promoters, boxers and fans—all that were not lucky enough to make their escape. Some of the greatest bouts ever seen were in those days. They fought for supremacy, and not so much for the money then. Many times the fans would pass the hat around or chip in and make up a purse of a few hundred dollars for the boxers, which was very satisfactory, and lots of times they realized practically nothing for their efforts. Along about that time a fe wolf the highbrows joined the boxing squad, among them James J. Corbett, a young bank clerk of San Francisco, Cal. Peter Jackson, a theological student of Australia, and J. A. Atherton, a young college athlete, who resorted to the ring under an assumed name to replenish the family's fast dwindling fortune, and Charley Mitchell, a well-to-do English of the middle class. Great was the day for boxing when such men joined the ranks. From then boxing took a new lease on life, and slowly but surely began to gain friends. From the good that was derived and the easy money that was in the game it served to work both ends at the same time, so boxing was given due consideration zy the fair-minded people, who found no fault in the game so long as it was conducted on the square. Right here I want to say that there were a lot of crooks in the boxing game, both boxers and promoters, who would not hesitate for a moment to frame up for a few hundred dollars. But the friends of boxing soon eliminated some great ringsters who did credit to the name of boxing, who lived to uphold a just sport, and at the same time save their money. Many a one, after having passed the age to do justice to the game, retired wealthy, and today are living on the shady side of Easy street—all due to boxing. When the call to arms was heard the boxers were among the first to respond to the colors, s othe government bowed its appreciation by giving commissions as second lieutenants to several of the leading boxers and putting them in charge of boxing in various contenants. So instead of boxing being looked on as a brutal sport for rough-necks, bullets and uncount ruffians, it is educational, beneficial and a necessity, and good enough for the best in the land.
