Once more the unexpected has happened and for the next two years the city affairs of Tulsa will be in the hands of a republican administration, with the exception of H. F. Newblock, who went along with the republicans.
Hundreds of people went to bed Tuesday night feeling confident that the entire democratic ticket had won out, but they were greatly surprised Wednesday morning to learn that T. J. Evans the republican nominee and all of his ticket, except one, had been elected by a small majority, Mayor Hubbard having lost by 206 votes.
The defeat of the party nominees in Tulsa is chargeable to the same disgruntled element which four years ago turned the city over to the infamous Simmon's administration. This element supported the republican ticket in order to vent their spleen on the city administration, who had incurred their ill will. But notwithstanding this element of the party most of the people of Tulsa in both parties before the election felt confident of Hubbard's re-election and because they felt so, no doubt, many of them remained away from the polls. This contributed largely to the success of the republican ticket.
Colored Precincts Go Democratic.
In precinct 23, where practically all the voters are Colored, the democratic ticket won by a big majority. In precincts 1, 3 and 10 where a large number of Colored people vote, the democratic ticket also won.
This is a decided victory for the Colored democrats and a confirmation of the Star's prediction that more than fifty per cent of the Colored people would vote the democratic ticket.
The total number of votes cast in precinct 23 was 565. Of this num-

ANTI-LYNCH LAW
Colored Citizens Win Long Fight
For Passage of Bill.
NEW YORK, N. Y., April 4.—In view of the lynching on March 29, of Grant Smith a Negro, at Millersburg, Kentucky, by a mob which overpowered the sheriff and the police as they were taking their prisoner to jail, it is interesting to note that only one week prior to this occurrence Governor Edwin P. Morrow of Kentucky signed a bill providing for the punishment of lynchers and for the removal of the peace officer who surrenders his prisoner. The bill was signed in the presence of a committee of Colored citizens headed by Dr. E. E. Underwood, President of the Frankfort Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to whom the gold pen used by the gor-
The bill makes the penalty for lynching death or life imprisonment and that for attempted lynching confinement in the penitentiary for not less than two years or more than twenty-one years. The fight to secure a lynching law in Kentucky began with the Legislature of two years ago, when a bill was passed submitting to the people a constitutional amendment to make error was presented. it possible to effect the automatic removal of any peace officer who permitted a mob to secure a prisoner in his custody. The bill submitting the amendment was championed by a committee of Colored citizens, who succeeded in securing its passage without a single dissenting vote in either branch of the Legislature. This law will not become effective, however, until the expiration of the 90 day's required by law because the emergency clause was not attached.
Y. W. C. CLUB
One of the most interesting meetings of the Young Women's Christian Club was held at the tubercular Clinic Thursday, April 1. We had the pleasure of having with us Mrs. Cordella A, Winn, National field worker from New York city, who lectured to us on the work of the Y. W. C. A. Mrs. Winn spoke very encouragingly of our cub work and the future looks bright for a Y. W. C. A. branch here. She also spoke to an unusually large number at Mt. Zion Baptist Church on Wednesday night, March 31.

part of the administration will retire from office with the reputation and well deserved honor of having given the people of Tulsa the best administration this city has ever known. They will not retire fighting the party or retarding in any way the progress of Tulsa and its institutions. They will join hands with other good citizens in pushing our city to the front and helping to redeem it from the slanderous reputation given it by their opponents in the recent campaigns.
It will be well for the incoming administration to pattern after the retiring administration in conducting the affairs of this city. If they do this, and follow the policy of, according fair and equal consideration to all the people of Tulsa, regardless of race or color, as the democrats have done, then,—but not until then,—Will we admit that they merit the vote which put them into office?

In2000Counties This Month
The Forces of the Church of Christ
Will Gather To Face the Facts
EE 2000 counties in the United States the pastors
and laymen of 30 great denominations will meet
in conference this month.
It is the kind of conference that generals hold
before a critical engagement; that business men
hold before entering a new market. A conference
of judgment, not emotion; a clear-eyed facing of
the facts.
A Survey that Business Men Must Admire
For more than a year hundreds of workers have been
quietly engaged in making a scientific survey of the mission
fields, and of America county by county.
The facts developed are startling. No such picture of
America’s religious situation has ever before been drawn.
On the basis of these surveys thirty Protestant de-
nominations are uniting in a
Nation Wide Cooperative Campaign
Each of the thirty denominations has its own “For-
ward Movement” organized and officered, The Interchurch
World Movement is the clearing house for all of these.
It is the agency which the churches have created to
avoid duplication, to foster cooperation and make sure that
every man and dollar render the utmost service possible.
The month of April will be devoted to making
the facts of the survey known to America; in the week of
April 25th-May 2nd, will come a united simultaneous
financial campaign.
Whether You Are Inside the Church or Out
‘To every man and every woman who loves his country,
these 2000 county conferences are vitally important.
For the facts developed by this great survey show
vividly what forces are at work in America—and what kind
of a country this country is to be.
See that the pastor of your church appoints
delegates. Any pastor can tell you the con-
ference place and date. Or write direct to the

ARE YOU SICK! Your Resolution Should Be: "I will Get Well the Mechano-Therapy Way"
Mechano-Therapy is a scientific method of finding the cause of disease in the spinal column (back bone), and correcting that cause by adjusting the vertebrae (segments) of the spine to eliminate any pressure on the nerves that pass out from the spinal cord to supply all parts of the body with nerve force (life). When this is done nature will make you well. Mechano-Therapy adjustments open the channels for nature to do her work.
Let us explain how Mechano-Therapy will make you well. No charge for consultation.

So-called headaches, eye diseases, deafness, epilepsy, vertigo, insomnia, wry neck, facial paralysis, locomotor ataxia and other inco-ordinations are caused by pressure on nerves at this point.
Pressure on nerves in this part of the spine is the cause of so-called throat trouble, neuralgia, pain in arms, goitre, nervous prostration, the grippe, dizziness, bleeding from nose, disorder of gums, catarrh and other so-called "diseases."
Pressure on nerves here will cause so-called bronchitis, felons, pain between the shoulder blades, hay fever, writers' cramp, and other troubles.
Nerve pressure at this point causes so-called nervousness, heart disease, asthma, pneumonia, tuberculosis, difficult breathing and other lung troubles.
So-called stomach and liver troubles, enlargement of the spleen, pleurisy and a score of other troubles are caused by pressure on nerves in this part of the spine.
At this point we find the cause of so-called gall stones, dyspepsia of upper bowels, fevers, shingles, hiccough, worms, and many other inco-ordinations.
Pressure on nerves at this point will cause so-called Bright's disease, diabetes, floating kidney, skin diseases, boils, eruptions and rheumatism.
Such troubles as so-called appendicitis, peritonitis, lumbago, etc., yield to Mechano-Therapy adjustments in this part of the spine.
Why have so-called constipation, rectal troubles, sciatica, etc., when adjustments at this part of the spine will eliminate the cause?
A slight displacement of one or both hip bones will produce so-called sciatica, together with many "diseases" of pelvis and lower extremities.

Secretary of the Philippine Mission, Author "The Case for the Filipinos," "Self-Government in the Philippines," etc.
"When they show sufficient capacity," "When they are able to govern themselves," "When they are educated enough." Thus run the answers of many Americans pressed with the question as to when the Filipinos should be granted their independence. Now, "ability," "capacity" and "sufficient education"
Senator Shogun may think no people is capable of self-government that does not establish the judicial recall, or that has no Billy Sunday. John Smith of Somerville may think no people is capable of self-government that does not vote his democratic ticket, or go to church on Sundays.
"Capacity for self-government" is as broad and elastic as the world, and if that should be the criterion for the granting of Philippine independence, America might as well say to the Filipinos, "I will give you independence when it please me to do so."
Fortunately, the American promise to the Philippines is not based on such obscure and abstract conditions. It is based on a definite selzable thing. When America, through her Congress, officially told the Filipino people that they would be granted their independence as soon as they could establish a stable government, no abstract or obscure condition was meant. Stable government, according to American usage, means a certain, definite thing. The United States promised the Cubans the same thing, that "when they have established a stable government, then American troops would be withdrawn." As soon as the Cuban people elected a-government suited to themselves, capable of maintaining order and fulfilling all international obligations, there was a stable government in Cuba, and American troops were withdrawn.
When Congress passed the Jones law, it simply borrowed the phrase "stable government" from the Cuban history and applied it to the Philippines. The history of Philippine legislation shows that in black and white, With full knowledge of what it meant, the Filipino people accepted the Jones law and immediately began setting up the stable government required by Congress as a pre-requisite to independence. The stable government is now a fact. It is indeed more than that; it is an undisputed fact.
The official representative of the United States in the Philippine Islands, the Governor General, reported to the American Congress and the administration that "the Filipino people have established the stable government demanded by Congress as a pre-requisite for the granting of independence—namely, a government elected by the suffrage of the people, which is supported by the people, which is capable of maintaining order and of fulfilling its international obligations."
The Philippine question is therefore no longer a question of politics, argument or supposition. To the Philippine mind, at least, it is now a question of whether the United States is ready to discharge its own obligations fully and completely. America went before the world in the recent war as the avowed champion of "self-determination" and Filipinos cannot see how America can consistently refuse to act
The Filipino people, however, have no grudge or grievance against the American people. Theirs is a message of friendship and gratitude. They seek independence as the natural and logical outcome of America's policy in the islands and of America's solemn promise to them. They come willing to give privileges and concessions not incompatible with their national welfare.
The Filipino people are willing to accept independence under any of the following conditions: Under a League of Nations, guaranteeing its territorial integrity; under the protectorateship of the United States for the first few years; under a treaty of neutrality between the United States, England, Japan, France and other powers, or even without any condition whatever—absolute and complete independence. They have no fear of Japan. Philippine independence, in our opinion, is not intimical to Japanese interests. The Japanese are now free to come to the Philippines, but at the present time there are less than 10,000 Japanese in the islands. There are six times as many Japanese in California as there are in the entire Philippine Archipelago.
The Filipinos are willing to take their chance as a nation. Smaller nations beset by graver problems and dangers have taken a more hazardous chance at freedom, and have succeeded.

Woman Leaves Bed to Vote For Hubbard
Bad Herself Carried in Chair to the Polls to Vote Democratic Ticket.
One of the most unusual and remarkable incidents of election day was the casting of a straight democratic ticket at the voting booth in Tulsa in the Red Wing Hotel building by a Colored woman, who had been brought down a flight of stairs and across the street in an invalid's chair. Mrs. Marshall, who is the principal figure in this election day episode, is one of Tulsa's best known residents, and has her home in one of the handsome suites of the hotel in the Dreamland Theatre building. Mrs. Marshall has been a sufferer for some time and has been more or less confined to her apartments. Nevertheless she has had a keen interest in the political campaign which ended last Tuesday in the election of Judge Evans as the next mayor of Tulsa. After giving the claims of all the contestants the proper consideration, Mrs. Marshall had made up her mind to cast her ballot for the re-election of Mayor Hubbard and his efficient administration. On election day, despite the fact that she was physically unable to make the trip down stairs and across the street, she determined to cast her vote anyhow. So she made arrangements for several men to carry her in an invalid chair to the polls, and when she got there, she voted the straight democratic ticket and heaved a sigh of relief and satisfaction. The voting of Mrs. Marshall in an invalid chair created considerable excitement at the polls.

CLARK WOMAN RELEASED ON BOND
Woman's Physical Condition Moves Court to Leniency.
Mrs. Mattie Clark who two weeks ago shot and killed her mother-in-law, Mrs. Elnora Hurst, was allowed bail in the sum of $5000, Thursday following a hearing in habeas corpus action brought before Judge Redmond S. Cole to obtain the woman's release.
Witnesses testified that the woman was in a delicate state of health.
Mrs. Clark explained in her petition to the court that after receiving a beating at the hands of her husband and mother-in-law the night before the shooting, she was not responsible for acts which she committed later.
The law firm of Saddler and Corbett are attorneys for the woman.

Race Man Appointed Justice of The Peace
E. I. Saddler Named By County Commissioners to Fill Vacancy
At a meeting of the County Commissioners, Monday, Hon. E. J. Saddler, a local lawyer was named as Justice of the Peace to fill a vacancy in one of the four justice offices in this city.
Mr. Saddler is well known not only in Tulsa, but throughout the state and his appointment is generally regarded with favor among members of the Race in Tulsa.
The appointment of Mr. Saddler is another recognition the Race has received at the hands of the democrats of this county and is in keeping with the well known policy of that party in this county in giving just recognition to our Group. Mr. Saddler is a staunch democrat and a good lawyer.

MUSKOGEE'S LITTLE GIANT
MISJUDGES THE STAR
Muskogee Correspondent Had No
Intention of Throwing Bricks
But Boquets.
(Star News Service).
MUSKOGEE, Apr. 9.—The correspondent of the Tulsa Star, as he learns from the Editor, is charged with unmerited criticism of the Rev. S. S. Jones, pastor of Antioch Baptist Church, this city, in an article recently appearing in columns of this journal. Replying thereto the Correspondent denies this implication and states that the Rev. S. S. Jones has no better friend than said Correspondent, a fact which could easily be established. The aim of the Correspondent was merely to show not only Rev. Jones, but the public as well, how those of this Group who labor the hardest and most faithfully for the uplift of the Race, just as Muskogee's "Little Giant" is doing and has always done, are subject to criticisms from sources, some times the least to be suspected as inimical. However, the Correspondent so far as he personally knows, is glad to assure Star readers that the Rev. S. S. Jones is still achieving great success in his religious work, and so far as his congregations are concerned, both here and at Okmulge there is but one pastor in the U. S. for them and his name is Rev. S. S. Jones.

Columbia, S.

Washington, D. C., Apr. 10.—Collection of funds to make up the required sum of $25,000 for maintenance of the Y. W. C. A. building for the Colored branch of that service will continue this week, the subject of the Y. W. C. A. work having been given special attention in many churches. The building at 9th and Rhode Island avenue is going up rapidly, funds for the construction having been appropriated by the war work council of the association during 1918.
NEW YORK, April 5.—Resolutions hailing the defeat of the "inipulious peace treaty and league of nations as a renewal of the declaration of American independence" urging recognition of the Irish republic by the United States, and denouncing English rule in Ireland, were adopted at a mass meeting here last night under the auspices of the Clan-Na-Gael. President Eamon de Valera of the "provisional Irish republic," was the principal speaker, and addresses were made by Supreme Court Justice Daniel F. Cohalan and Edward J. Gayegan.

“THERE ARE FOUR THINGS that God All Mighty don’t
know”’ said Colonel Allison after election Tuesday: ‘They are:
Whom a woman will marry; what a woman will do on election day;
the decision of a jury and when it will rain.’
A PLEASING AFTERMATH of the election is the evident
good feeling existing between the leaders of the two Political fae-
tions among the Colored people of this city. This is as it should
be. There is no excuse for it being otherwise.

THE STAR DESIRES to commend the women of our Raee in
Tulsa for the brave stand they took for our democratie friends in
Tuesday's election. You played a noble part ladies, and in spite
of results, you won.

NOW THAT ELECTION IS OVER the expression “we won,”
with particular emphasis on the ‘‘we,’ is common among a certain
class of would-be politicians. But, so far as our fellows are con-
cerned, a review of the count in 1, 3, 10, and 23 will show that
“*we’? didn’t ‘won.’”
ee
WELL, the unexpected has happened and the G. 0. P. has again
won in Tulsa, And again DEMOCRATS (1) are responsible.
The Star has no sore spots. We fcught well, but lost, we take
our defeat graciously. We have always contended that ‘to the
victor belongs the spoils’”’ and we still believe in that policy.
SOME ARE HINTING that there were enemies in our camp
in Tuesday's election and that a big steal was made during the
last hour; that a snug sum changed hands in the deal. If there is
any foundation for this rumor the guilty parties should be ferretted
out and punished for the crime. If not, the waters should be clear-
ed at once.

THERE IS NO EXCUSE for any Colored man or woman in

THE TULSA STAR desires to commend the Colored voters
of Tulsa for the splendid showing they made at the polls Tuesday.
In spite of the fact that our fayorite candidates lost, the results as
shown in the precincts where the Colored people vote is a decided
vietory for us, The incoming administration will not forget the
fact that we were loyal to our friends and they will do all they
can to equal their predecessors in giving us meritorious recognition
—at least, here’s hoping they will.
THE STATE OF KENTUCKY has passed an tnti-lyneh law,
punishing with death, those found guilty of taking part in mob
murders, removing officials who give up their prisoners to mobs,
and confining in prison from two to twenty years those found
guilty of attempting to commit mob violence. The solons of the
Green Grass State are to be commented for passing this much needed
legislation. But the law will be of ao effeet unless the officers in
that State do their full duty in bringing to justice those who violate
it. Kentucky has long been noted for her beautiful women, good
horses and—er—erstwhile good whiskey. Now let it be noted for
her stringent laws against lynching.

So it is with tuberculosis, The
United States and in faci the whole
world has inaugurate’ a campaign
against the dread “white plague,” or
consumption, The mwolive is to pre-
venl, as far as practically possible
the transfer of tuberculosis germs
from those affficted to those who
are not. It is indeed strange that
although these 'T, B. Nurses come
on such Christlike missions of ser-
vice and charity, their coming is
very often misconstrued and their
advice is not given the proper re-
spect and attention. Tt is well to
know, that the T, B. Nurse in charge
of our local dispensary, has had
very thorough training for ber life's
work, and the advice given by her
will prove not only beneficial to the
T. B. victim himself but of inealeul-
able value to his relatives, who are
thus taught how to avoid this ter-
rible human scourge.
The Charity Ball announced to be

It may not be fully appreciated as
yet, but it is none the less a fact,
that our present day T. B. (Tuber-
culosis) Nurses are engaged in the
noblest work possible to man or wo-
man on this earth, That this is not
more generally appreciated and un-
derstood is accounted for easily.
The great majority of the people
do pot know what modern day sci-
ence is doing in the great world-
wide fleld of humanity, For gen-
erations the most serious question
has been how to cure this disease
or the other, and the doctors or
scientists who discovered a remedy
hes been hailed as a benefactor to
the human race. Today while mod-
ern science has not turned its back
wholly upon research for “certain
cures,” yet it is devoting more of
its time to the development of the
great truth that “an ounce of pro-
vention is worth a pound of cure.”
In other words, modern science aims
te prevent disease, and this is the
chief aim of a T. B, Nurse in carry-
ing out her work in any community.

TAMPA, Fla., Apr. 4.—As a protest against high prices, 500 citizens dressed in overalls and calico, marched to the court house square here today and signed a petition pledging themselves not to buy expensive garments so long as present prices prevail. The petition presented later to the mayor, appealed for a limit on the profits of manufacturers and retailers and charged the former with profiteering.
OKLAHOMA TEACHERS
ASK FOR AMENDMENT
The teachers of Oklahoma, through their organization, the Oklahoma Educational Association, are planning a great campaign for signers to an initiative petition for a proposed amendment to the State Constitution, authorizing the levy of a sixmill state-wide tax on all taxable property of the State for the support of public schools. The week of April 19-24 has been designated as Initiation Week during which petitions will be circulated in every part of the State. 29,300 signers will be required, but the teachers expect to get at least two or three times that number. Not only teachers, but various clubs and other organizations are getting behind the movement.
The Secretary has prepared a list of Fourteen Reasons why the Amendment should carry. This, and a letter of instructions, will be sent with each petition.
Anyone desiring to circulate petition is requested to address: W. C. CANTERBURY, Secretary, Oklahoma Educational Association, State Capitol, Oklahoma City, Okla.

THINK STRAIGHT AND BE TRUE LEADERS, SAYS DANIEL
Secretary Daniels Expresses His Faith in Colored People; President Ferguson Believes in the Square Deal for All Men.
HAMPTON, Va., Apr. 3.—Honorable Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, recently paid a "flying visit" to Hampton Institute, following the launching of the "Maryland," which will be America's finest headnaught. His program included the meeting of the members of the Chinese Educational Commission, who were studying Hampton Institute; the reviewing of the School's battalion of cadets, including the Reserve Officers' Training Corps unit; the hearing of several plantation melodies of the Old South led by Paige I. Lancaster, late of the 367th Regiment; and a brief address in Ogden Hall to the Hampton Institute workers, students, and visitors on "The Need and Value of Self-discipline."
"Think Straight, Be True Leaders"
Secretary Daniels declared that the Hampton School is the result of General Armstrong's dream and vision; for, after the War between the States, it was Armstrong who saw what might come out of the great human tragedy. He expressed his complete confidence in the loyalty of the Colored people to American ideals and his satisfaction with the military review held in his honor.
Addressing the students directly he said; "As you marched in review so well and showed the benefit and result of excellent training, I felt that it would not only bear fruit in making good soldiers, but it would have a reflex influence on making ncn straight.
"It was often said during the war that if a man would shoot straight he must live straight. We preached that doctrine in the Navy and in the Army and we found, as the months went by, that the man who was self-restrained, kept his passions in subject to his will, and had a clean body, made the best soldier. "Now we have come into an era of peace. The same need is before us; that young Americans, above all else, should keep their bodies clean, upright in life, clean and straight, not only that in emergency they must shoot straight, but in this complex life before us they can think straight, work better, command better pay, and, going out of schools like Hampton, be true leaders of a race coming out of ignorance into a better day."
Homer L. Ferguson, president of the Newport News Shipbuiling and Dry Dock Company at Newport News and a Hampton trustee, spoke on "The Negro in Industry." He stated that at the Newport News shipyard 5500 Colored men are now employed.
"We are proud of the fact," he said, "that we are practically the only employers of Colored labor who work together successfully thousands of white and Colored men in the same institution without any trouble, I feel that there is a real, practical, definite, economic solution of the problem of the South, which we are please to call the Colored problem, and in my judgment it will be solved largely by Southern men, white and black, working with the common purpose of doing the right thing by each other."
Mr. Ferguson showed clearly that these who would teach must first learn., "Those who would instill industry and thrift into the hearts of a people," he said, "must first themselves be industrious and thrifty, and those who would teach o-bedience must themselves first learn and practice obedience. Leadership does not consist in saying 'go on' but 'come on,' Whoever has the biggest job becomes the greatest servant,"

t and Hooker Easter Sales
Surpassed Expectation.
There were a lot of disappointed people in Tulsa Sunday when they awoke to find instead of a bright, sunny Easter day, they shivered in a little blizzard which had come up in the early hour of the morning to take away the joy of Eastertide. The thermometer indicated a drop in the tempreture of several degrees and those of the feminine sex who had made great preparations for a gorgeous display of bustling Easter togs, if they ventured out at all, came out in their late winter attire. Thousands of dollars were spent by the people of this city for the annual Easter display in fashionable dress only to be sorely disappointed by the weather gods. The Elliott and Hooker store on North Greenwood did a splendid business as did many of the down town stores.
Mr. Hooker, manager of the store said this morning that their Easter sales this year were far in excess of their Easter trade last year in spite of the threatening weather Saturday.
Mrs. Quinty Presley of this city, who has been visiting her mother-in-law, Mrs. McNeal of Perry, Okla., returned home yesterday.

Where Are The Dead
PAGE FOUR
By RICHARD HILL.
(Continued from last week).
This question has been perplexing to the minds of the people for centuries, due largely to the erroneous teachings of the clergy, but due primarily to Satan's great fraud.
The Catholic Clergy answers the question thus: The faithful good (meeting Catholics) are in Purgatory, there to remain until they are removed to Heaven, aided by the Masses and prayers of the Priest The Manual of the Purgatorian Society, quoting the words of Lignori says: "The practice of recommending to God the Souls in Purgatory that he may mitigate the great pain which they suffer, and that he may soon bring them to his glory, is most pleasing to the Lord and most profitable to us." (Page 5). The latter clause of this quotation reminds us of Upton Sinclair's book entitled, "Profitis in Religion." The manual of the Purgatorian Society further says, "Flowers should be used at the funerals of children only; circumstances may at times justify a deviation from this rule, but, at all events, it is unpardonable if the expense connected with this display deprives the soul departed of any spiritual assistance. Let all perform these last services for their departed, and thereby relieve their own sorrow. But let them show greater zeal, care and generosity in securing souls of the departed by Masses, prayers and alms" (Pages 37 to 38). The Manual further attempts to induce the faithful to disgorge for the benefit of the departed by saying, "But what could more forcibly elicit our charity and gratitude than to behold our loved ones and our benefactors in extreme distress, while we have the means of alleviating their sufferings! That person does not possess a spark of Christian Charity, who, from neglect or indolence, suffers the souls of his friends to be tormented in the flames called Purgatory." (Pages 39 and 40).
It has been remarked by good Catholics that no one is ever relieved from Purgatory within less than a thousand years, thereby making it impossible for his friends of one generation to pay the entire bill, but it descends as a kind of legacy to the family to provide the money for the saying of Masses to relieve his soul in Purgatory. Thus it is seen that the doctrine of Purgatory has been a fruitful source of money making. It is plain for anyone to see that if there is no such a place as Purgatory and if the departed ones are not conscious, then this Purgatory theory is one of the most gigantic frauds ever practiced upon the people, because it has not only taught them error but it has been used as a means of extracting money from their pockets. Obtaining money under false pretense is a crime under the law and it means the inducing of another to part with his money by fraudulent representations. The Catholic Clergy teach that all who are not faithful Catholics go to Hell, a place of endless torture, and there is no hope for them. The Protestant Clergy, I am sorry to say, are even worse than the Catholics in their representation as to the condition of the dead. They say that only a few when they die go to Heaven, and all the remainder of mankind at death go to Hell, and Hell is defined by them as being a place of conscious torture, eternal in duration.
It must be apparent to all who think for themselves that the theories of both the Catholics and the Protestants rest upon the doctrines of the inherent immortality of the soul and the consciousness of the dead. We have heretofore shown in these articles that the soul is not immortal and that the dead are not conscious, but that the theories of inherent immortality and the consciousness of the dead are based upon Satan's first old lie, "Ye surely shall not die." The doctrine of eternal torment cannot be true for at least four separate distinct reasons: (1) Because it is unreasonable. (2) Because it is repugnant to justice. (3) Because it is contrary to the principle of love. (4) Because, thank God, it is wholly unscriptural.
It does seem strange that men with reasoning facilities should ever reach the conclusion that any of God's creatures would be eternally tormented. What could be the purpose of such? Could it accomplish any good? God is the great Creator and Author of the Divine plan and no part of the plan could be carried into operation without his permission. If eternal torment be true, there could not be a reasonable God. Why? Because any Creator that would put in to operation a system of endless torment would be a fiend and unreasonable God. Why create millions of beings, or permit them to live, and because they did not come up to a perfect standard, consign them to endless torment? It certainly would have been more just to not have created or permitted them to exist at all. It is unreasonable because no one could be eternally tormented unless they were eternally conscious and
THE TULSA STAR, Saturday, April 10, 1920
the scriptural proof heretofore given is that the dead are not conscious, furthermore, no one could be eternally tormented in flames of fire unless that creature was immortal and the scriptures are conclusive that none are immortal or originally and none of the human race ever attained to immortality except the few faithful followers of Christ Jesus who are given this as a great reward.
According to the Clergy, a child is begotten by debauched and criminal parents. At the moment of conception God intervenes and implants the immortal spot in the child. It is born and lives and idiot or a habitual criminal. It cannot avoid being evil. It dies a wicked creature and continues forever throughout eternity in conscious torment. The child is not responsible. Its parents were not responsible, because they were all imperfect. Therefore, God alone would be responsible for the eternal torment of this creature. Such a doctrine is not only unreasonable, but is infinitely defamatory of Jehovah's great name. It certainly is a doctrine of demons that teaches such. Without it the people never could have been forced to be the dupes of Eclesiastical frauds. The scriptures declare, "Justice is the foundation of Jehovah's throne." (Psalms, 89; 14). The attributes of Jehovah are wisdom, justice, love and power.
Every child is born under conditions over which it has no control. Would it be just, therefore, that it should spend its eternity in torment? Suppose it should be announced that the worse criminal in the jail was to be tormented for a month by a slow process of searing with red-hot irons? The people would rise up in indignation to thwart the gross injustice. Their sense of justice would be shocked at such a procedure. Are we more just than God? How many men could be found so heartless and devoid of the sense of justice that they could torture even a dumb brute? If he would attempt to torture a dumb brute the members of the Hussein Society would see to it that he was arrested and punished because of his infaction upon justice. Where does man get his sense of justice? We answer, it came from learning of the great and rightous character of God. The more God-like man is the more just he is. The doctrine of eternal torture is devoid of the principle of love. It is friendish. Let every parent who has a child ask himself this question: "Do I love my child more than God loves it? Would I for a moment torture my child in a flame, even tho' that child should be wilful/disobedient? Would I say, my son because you are incorigible, I must get an oven and heat it red-hot and roast you in it for a month?" Why would not the parent do this? We answer, because of his love for the child. Instead of torturing it he would say, "I am sorry my son cannot do right, but I am going to do all I can to assist him in the right way."
one scriptures declare, "God is love." Adam, his son, was creater perfect. The whole race sprang from Adam. None are righteous, not one not because of Adam's she God's love for the human race is far greater than the love of any human parent for his offspring. His love prompted him to make provision for the salvation of man. It is wholly inconsistent with his character that the great Jehovah would permit the fiendish torture of his creatures by fire-proof Devils or otherwise. The doctrine of eternal torment is not supported by a single text in the Bible. The texts that have been used in an attempt to support it is highly symbolic or have no reference to the human face. But it may be asked, does the Bible teach that the wicked shall be punished? We answer, most emphatically, yes! But there is a wide distinction between everlasting punishment and everlasting torment.
The laws of the land provide that the wicked shall be punished and the duration of the punishment is long or short, usually in proportion to the enormity of the crime committed. A man who uses vile language towards his neighbor is punished usually with a fine or jail sentence. Another, burgalizes a store and is punished by a term in the pentitentuary. Another, is convicted of taking the life of his fellow creature and he is punished with death. Even though his act was fendish the law would not permit the criminal to be tortured. No sane people would permit a law upon the statute books that would provide for the torture of any being. The laws provide for punishment but not for torment.
How long does the death penalty, when inflicted upon a man last? Secessarily it is lasting, everlasting. Therefore, so far as man is concerned, it is everlasting punishment. Destruction from which there is no resurrection would therefore be an everlasting punishment and that is exactly what Jesus teaches in his great parable in the 25th chapter of Matthew. A penalty for the violations of God's law was fixed by him's death. "In the day that thor

sineth thou shalt surely die." (Gen. 2; 17). "The wages of sin is death, (Not eternal torture)." (Romans 6; 23). God having fixed this penalty for the violation of his law while man was perfect and before he sinned could not change the penalty and inflict a different punishment afterward, for the reason that this would make God inconsistent. Even the constitution of the United States prohibits an expost-facto law. God is unchangeable. "He cannot deny himself." (2nd Timothy 2; 13). If eternal torture was added as a punishment afterward the declaration of God's law to man, Jehovah is wholly unjust, and we know that he is not unjust. Why are not the thousands of Clergies of the land willing to settle this great and vital question according to God's word? Why do they want to substitute theories of their own? We dare say that the great majority of Clergymen of today, when pressed upon the question of eternal torture, will admit that they really do not believe it, but it is necessary to teach it, they answer, because it is a doctrine of their church. (And of course we all understand that as long as this false doctrine will keep a crowd together and pour in the shekels to the unworthy Clergy there is good capital in advocating the false doctrines. They will not stop until the peoples' eyes become open to this great deception and cast them out).

Colored School Board Members Thus
Criticizes Parent Leagues
(Star News Service).
The New York News Washington correspondent in the following quotation shows that a Colored membership in a Board of Education is not a bed of roses after all:
Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, Colored member of the Board of Education, told the Senate committee investigating conditions in the public schools that he approved Rev. John Van Schaik's characterization of certain members of the Parents' League as "one-third child, one-third savage and one-third shell game." His statement was made in the midst of a denunciation of the 'bitter personal attacks of the Parents' League had made upon him and their 'incitement of the Colored population of Washington against the school board."
The enrollment of the Lincoln High School, Kansas City, Mo., of which Prof. J. R. E. Lee, is principal, is 217 boys and 424 girls, total 641. Professor Lee considers his school one of the largest in the country and under his efficient management, it is also one of the best.

Fifth. We further find that such action on the part of said Kenny was irregular and constitutes ground for his removal and we therefor on said ground remove the said J. C. Kenny as Inspector of Precinct No. One in the City of Tulsa.

Every Precinct Inspector in Tulsa Subjet to, Removal on the Same Grounds.
The removal of J. C. Kennedy, election inspector in precinct No. 1, by the county election board last week because he told R. E. Curran the count at noon on the day of the primary election was a surprise to every election official and every other ordinary intelligent citizen in Tulsa. For a number of years it has been the custom during elections here for candidates, or their friends and newspaper reporters to ask for and receive the official count of any candidate in the various precincts, and until Mr. Kennedy was removed for this act no one has ever thought of the practice as a violation of the law. No doubt every candidate, democrat and republican, in every election ever held in Tulsa has asked to be informed as to how he was running at nearly all hours after the count started.
For years the newspapers of this city in noon and evening editions have heralded the official count in the different precincts. If it is a violation of the law now it must have been then, but for some reason no objection has ever before been offered. Will somebody please explain why?
The following statement has been issued by the county election board: 'In the Matter of the Charges Against Election Officials in Precincts No. One and Twenty-Three
This matter came on regularly to be heard before the entire Board and after listening for two days to the evidence in support of the various charges made and concerning which evidence was introduced and after listening to the attorneys who represented the contending parties, we make the following findings.
First. That the evidence fails to show corrupt motives or illegal purposes on the part of any of the officials in either of the precincts.
Second. We find that the absence of the voting booths in precinct twenty-three was not the fault of the election board of such precinct because it was not and is not their duty to furnish the same but was the fault if any fault there was, of the County Election Board.
Third. We find that all the actioas of the precinct board in precinct 23 were in good faith and were as nearly in compliance with the law as was possible under the circum-
stances.

WHITE MAN'S BOOTBLACK
HAS DONE RACE HARM
But Shoe Shining Parlors Have Evolved Men Truer to Race Interests.
(A. N. P. Service).
"In the old days white people derived their knowledge of what Negroes were doing from those Negroes nearest to them, largely their own selected exponents of Negro activity or of their white point of view.—Today the white world is vaguely, but disquietingly, aware that Negroes are awake; different, but perplexingly uncertain. Yet the white world by which they are surrounded retains its traditional method of interpreting the mass by the Negro nearest to themselves in affiliation or contact."
PRESIDENT TALBERT PUNC-
TURES EQUALITY BUGABOO
Tells of Shameful Mistreatment While Selling Liberty Bonds.
(A. N. P. Service).
SPOKANE, Wash., Apr. 6.—Mrs. Mary B. Talbert of Buffalo, N. Y., President of the National Federation of Colored Women and graduate of Oberlin College, addressed an audience that filled the assembly room of the chamber of commerce. Mrs. Talbert is speaking throughout the nation on questions concerning the Race. "The allies cannot forget the Negroes who fought with them," she said. "If the Negroes are good enough to die for democracy, they are good enough o live in democracy. We are sick of fighting to make the world safe for democracy and now want to make the world a place to live in.
"Four hundred and fifty thousand Negroes were sent to France and they were the most loyal of soldiers because they fought for a democracy they did not possess.
"The Negroes subscribed o $225,000,000 worth of Liberty bonds. The government told them unless they put something into the war, they should receive nothing and we began to hope that peace would include the Negro. I traveled thru the South, speaking in behelf of the fourth Liberty bond campaign.
"I had to go in a "Jim Crow" car an ordinary freight car. I traveled thirty hours at a stretch with no sleeper, no diner, because no Negro is allowed on any other kind of a train in the South. Yet I was selling Liberty bonds for my government and the government operated the trains. I wasn't permitted to buy a cup of coffee at the stations because my lips would touch the cup and transgress social equality. "The Negroes subscribed for $225, social equality, but political and civil rights and a chance for better conditions." Mrs. Talbert told of the deplorable penal conditions in the South where there are no reformatories for children.
BIG COMMUNITY SING
AT CONVENTION HALL
Organ Recial and Other Attractions Free of Charge Sunday Afternoon.
And now the Community Sing has come to Tulsa. Certainly there can be nothing more soul inspiring and heart uplifting than these Sings where men and women assemble and unite their voices singing praises of their Maker, and familiar melodies of home and country. The one great idea of Community Singing is the getting together of all the people in singing old and familiar songs and hymns. These Community Sings naturally bring the people closer together and what purpose could possibly be higher in this life than that we should obey the biblical instructions of living together in peace, tranquility and brotherly love.
On Sunday afternoon at 3:30 all the Colored people of Tulsa will gather at Convention Hall, corner of Brady and Boulder streets, and entertain and be entertained. Through the good offices of Mrs. Cary of Mayor Hubbard's staff, Mr. W. R. Waghorne, of New York, musicale director from the National Headquarters of Community Service, has secured Convention Hall for Sunday afternoon and will stage Community sing, organ program and miscellaneous selections for the benefit of the Colored citizens of Tulsa.
Before the war Mr. Waghorne was a well-known concert and church organist as well as a composer of some note. The Colored folks of Tulsa will turn out in big numbers to this event. There will be no charge for admission and no collection will be taken up. The entire program is quite free to all. Remember, Sunday at 3:30 P. M. and bring all your friends.
*** A general snow storm with low temperature prevailed over Kansas and Nebraska, extending as far as Salt Lake City, last Saturday and Sunday.

AVIATOR LOSES HIS MIND
IN FLORIDA EVERGLADES
Wades in Mud to His Waist for
Several Days; Finally Rescued
(Star News Service).
ARCADIA, Fla., Apr. 5,—Lieut. O.
O. Niergarth of Battle Creek, Mich.,
the aviator who was lost in the
everglades for six days, recovered
his strength sufficiently last night to
tell of his experiences.
He left here Tuesday noon March 23 for Fort Myers, an hour's journey but missed the landmarks and as he had no compass soon was lost over the big cypress swamps. The sun was almost directly overhead and he was unable to establish his position from it. He flew southwestward until his gasoline gave out and landed in the first open space available. This proved to be an island of mud where he spent the night half buried in the mud and tortured by insects.
The next day he started wading through mud up to his waist. He continued the struggle throughout Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Friday night he became delirious and did not remember what he did until Monday morning when he was rescued by a man named Rowell, who treated his wounds and fed him. Rowell carried him to Everglades, by boat where he was picked up Wednesday by an aviator and brought here. He lost 25 pounds during the adventure.
BRILLIANT TEXAS COP
WANTS THOMAS JEFFERSON
Suspected Red Under Arrest Had Extracts of Jefferson's Writings.
The Nation in its recent issue contained the following article which fairly illustrates the average intelligence of the constabulary made possible through white supremacy in Texas;
To the Editor of The Nation:
Sir: A few days ago in a certain city in Texas two policemen arrested a man whom they suspected of being a red. They searched him and found the following typewritten document in his inside coat pocket: "That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; and that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these enos, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundations on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness."
The two officers after scanning this document seized the suspected man by the arms and began to drag him towards the jail. The man seeing that resistance was useless, cried out: "Hold on, men! I did not

New King of Syria Has Just Beer Inaugurated With Glittering Pomp
(Star News Service).
LONDON, April 6.—Prince Emin Feisal, son of the Kings of the Hedjaz, has just been proclaimed king of Syria with all the glittering pomp and ceremony customary to the peoples of the near east. The inclusion, by the terms of the peace treaty, of Palestine and a portion of Mesopotamia into the territory of Syria makes Feisal ruler over some of the oldest land known to man.
MICHIGAN DEMOCRAT HAS
RIBS IN HIS ANATOMY
While Alabama Democrats Scuffle Along Through Life With Few Ribs and Little Conscience
(Star News Service).
MUSKOGEE, Okla., Apr. 7.—Mr. Aldrich Blake, prominent attorney o: this city, and candidate for mayor of the city last Tuesday, in presenting his claims for the suffrage of his fellow citizens, declared: "It takes more ribs to be a democrat in Michigan than it takes to be a democrat in Alabama or Muskogee." Which goes to show that God in discriminating thus against Alabama Democrats knew they would not know what to do with another pair or so. Along with these extra ribs given to Michigan Democrats, goes a fine six-cylinder conscience, always in fine working order in the discernment of truth and justice.

(STAR NEWS Service).
JACKSON, Miss., Apr. 6.—With only one state lacking to make the national suffrage amendment effective, the Mississippi house of representatives declined recently, more than four to one, to reverse its previous action and join the senate in adopting a ratification resolution.
The action was final. Under the rules, the question cannot be reopened at this session, which ends Saturday.
tion. The motion to disagree was carried 94 to 23.
The house was avowedly hostile to ratification. An uproar of nays followed a demand that the clerk be permitted to read telegrams from democratic leaders and others from all parts of the country urging ratification.
Russel Didn't Appear
Governor Russell, although momentarily expected to make his promised "little talk" in favor of ratification did not appear.
Speakers who endeavored to address the body in support of the measure were hooted and jeered and in the uproar could scarcely be heard.
With the ratification amendment finally out of the way the legislature proceeded to routine business with a promised adjournment within a few days.
No Chance Now.
The action was positive and regarded as final, a motion to disagree with the senate's resolution favoring ratification, having been carried. There was an uproar of "no" in the floor when a demand was made that telegrams from the democratic leaders urging ratification be read.
Speakers who sought to support ratification were hooted and jeered. The members yelled for nearly a minute when R. H. Watts of Pisgah, arose and shouted:
"I would rather die and go to Hades than vote for woman suffrage."
Colored People Are Going North
CHICAGO, Ill., April 7.—"Negroes are migrating to the north fast and leaving the south short of labor," T. Arnold Hill, executive secretary of the league said recently. "They are leaving the South in large numbers because they think the North offers them a better opportunity, more money and better working conditions. As soon as the weather becomes milder the influx will greatly increase. Many Negroes who went South for the winter because of the severe climate will be coming back. "We have jobs for all that come. Many foreign laborers are leaving this country for their own countries since the close of the great war, his leaves many vacancies. The recent race riots of the North had little effect on migration. We have just as many coming, the record shows, as before the riots."

BIG BUSINESS
(A. N. P. Service).
We don't know enough about the workings of big business. We mean business done on a big scale. The kind of business that brings power, that makes por prestige, but operates to establish substantial and permanent success.
It is high time we were learning some of its secrets. We are losing money—lots of it—by standing by and letting the other fellow make all the money worth the while among us and then hand a certain small percentage of it back to us in the shape of organizations that exercise a sort of quasi philanthropic supervision over our social welfare.
Because money is the tin god of the hour, we need plenty of it for the purposes of our social and economic welfare. Since the insistence is that we shall maintain a social organization separate and apart from the other elements in American life, we must exact ourselves the responsibility of direction and maintenance of our life upon the highest social plane.
Big business enterprises will turn the trick for us. Let us get busy. Let us take young men and women of the Race, who betray the possession of ability and character, and pay for their business training. We need the big business because we need Big Money. Big Money moves the world.
AMERICA TO FRANCE
(A. N. P. Service).
America's monument gift to the Republic of France is an eloquent expression of American good will. France is the best and widest loved among modern nations. Her history is an illuminating record of the modern social impulse to broaden the scope and to strengthen the spirit of the modern man's desire to realize high social designs; and the American gift is presented as a token of the intimate record in which the United States embodies its love for Liberty and its reverence for faith.
Our Race has an abiding and loving interest in the fortunes of France. This fact softened the bitterness that energized the larger number among us when the United States entered the great world war. France was bleeding white. That meant death for liberty-loving France and a seting back of the hands of the clock of progress. In this sacred moment we stilled the mutterings of our outraged souls and went into the conflict "hell bent" to do and die that Liberty might live. We have strong reasons to be proud of our war record. We held our heads high and our faces to the east. There was no faltering in our ranks; there was no misgivings in our hearts; and our blood reddened the streams and made more fertile the hills and plains of beloved France.
Preachment and deed are the offspring of the true Democracy. It is because France does what she preaches that man—black and white, love her. She is socially honest. Not in the specific sense but in the deeper and more original ways that make for a permanence of life and spirit not to be found in the shallow expression of high sounding preachments.
The closer the American people get to France, the broader will grow the American life. The United States has much to learn—much to learn in the matters of government; much to learn in the question of social values much to learn concerning the deeper purposes of life. Standing near to the people who have come the nearest to solving the complex problems of the modern social order we may learn a great lesson of social truth and hence live the longer on the plane of a truly great social organization. Long Live France! Long Live America!
Lynching Leads to Inquiry.
NEW YORK, April 5.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, recently made public a telegram sent to Governor Edwin P. Morrow of Kentucky, in which the Association expresses the hope that action had already been taken by Kentucky authorities to ascertain the identity and bring to trial, members of the mob which lynched Grant Smith, a Negro, at Millersburg, Kentucky, on Monday night. The Negro was lynched after extradition had been granted by authorities of the State of Michigan. The Association points cut that extradition was granted on the assumption that trial would be had in the courts of Kentucky and refers in a commendatory manner to Governor Morrow's "statesmanlike action at Lexington in February" the allusion being to the protection of Will Lockett, a Negro from a mob bent on lynching him.

CHILDREN'S CLUB
MAKING PROGRESS
One of the most interesting and worth while enterprises of Tulsa is the Childrens' Club organized and conducted by Mrs. F. R. Williams. The purpose of such an organization necessarily is educational and Mrs. Williams is giving considerable more of her time than that taken up by the meetings which are held every Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the Colored Library on Archer street. The enrollment of the club at present is 25, and when the parents of Tulsa take deeper interest in the welfare of their children, this number will be greatly increased and larger quarters will be needed for meeting purposes. The membership includes both boys and girls up to the age of 14, and to their credit be it said, they are showing a warm appreciation of Mrs. Williams' efforts in their behalf.
One of the methods of improving the minds of the members of this club initiated by Mrs. Williams is to have them write essays every week on timely topics. To encourage this work the best essays are to be selected and the attention of the general public called to them. Last week the topic written on was "Easter," and the Star takes pleasure in reproducing it as follows:
"On Easter day, we celebrate this day, because Christ arose from the dead. Two of the angels in heaven came down and rolled the stone away, Christ arose. While he was sitting in a bush of grass two of his friends came by and had a dispute. Christ asked them why they were so sad, they said that the rulers and the high priest had killed their Savior. He walked along the road until they came to their homes. They begged Christ to stay and have supper and he did, they passed the bread to him and he blessed it then they knew him and he vanished away."
Alma Hardy.

EYESIGHT RESTORED BY PULLING ONE TOOTH
Teeth Are Now Concidered Responsible for Many Human Ills.
Under the caption "Away With Teeth," Nation in its recent issue describes the wonderful recovery of sight by Viscount Grey through the removal of just one tooth.
"There was once a doctor, a professor in a great medical school, who, in the early days of the craze for appendicitis operations, solemnly announced to his students "You will live to see the day when every new infant will be vaccinated and have his appendix removed before he is a month old." To which the modern fashionable practitioner would doubtless add "and his tonsils as well." But beyond that science has discovered a new source of all the lills to which human flesh is subject—it is our teeth. You may speak to us if you please about the latest discovery as to tuberculosis and the rumored tagging of the influenza germ; those are as nothing compared to the proof that rheumatism blindness, short-sightedness, deafness, neurasthenia, insanity, and—but we refrain from adding to the list lest it sound like a patent medicine advertisement—are all caused by our teeth. We confidently expect to see teeth as well as tonsils removed from the sterilized babe of the future—but we forget that teeth are not born with one, but acquired.
Now, lest any one accuse us of joking, we can call attention to the fact that Viscount Grey, pronounced blind beyond, hope by England's greatest oculists, has returned to London with eyesight apparently restored by the simple device of removing one, and only one tooth—a fact which must thoroughly reward him for his brief ambassadorial stay in Washington. Whether he recommend this practitioner to Mr. Wilson in the hope of having corrected that gentleman's particular astigmatism which prevented the President's discovering the presence of Viscount Grey while he was in Washington we are not aware. But certainly this wise physician will go down among the immortals.
JESUIT PRIEST DECLARES
WOMEN UDRESS FOR DINNER
He Says Girls Ruin Not Only Their Own Souls But Their Neighbors as Well.
(Star News Service).
LONDON, Apr. 6—Prevailing fashions in women's gowns were vigorously assailed in a sermon recently by Rev. Bernard Vaughn, the widely known Jesuit father, whose essays and sermons on morality and home life have for the past 20 years attracted great attention throughout the world.
"In days gone by ladies dressed for dinner, now they undress for it." he declared. "Women's clothing ought to serve the three purposes of decency, of warmth and of ornament. Women in their mad craze for what is know as 'emotional gowns,' sin against every canon of taste."
"Such dresses are immodest, unhealthy and as they are expensive, Girls who follow the up-to-date fashions are ruining their own and their neighbor's souls as well as their own bodies. Designers of fashions seem to be devoid as much of taste as of principle."
*** Because the United States Senate has refused to approve the treaty of Versailles, the London News calls on the good old U. S. A. to disarm. The News charges us not only with a desire to detach ourselves from Europe, but also to arm potentially against Europe.
