Calvin Chase, Washington, D. C. My Dear Chase: This letter, or rather note, leaves me from this incomparable city—the capital of La Belle France. I just returned to Paris today after a three-day trip to the coast. Temporarily, I am making Paris my base—going from and returning here at intervals. Thus far I have received naught but the most considerate treatment at the hands of the American army and the press. My treatment here, and especially by the French peoples, who with us are battling most successfully to make the world safe for democracy" has been such as to convince me that "world democracy" is but a question the very near future will decide favorably for all the oppressed peoples of the world. While on a visit the other day to hospital at which was confined many splendid, courageous and loyal colored boys who were wounded on the Champagne front in that fierce battle there, I met and conversed with William Ogden, a Washington, D. C., boy, who was among theounded, but who is progressing良ely and will recover. I cannot praise too highly the spirit of our colored soldiers over A SERVICE FLAG. Honor of the Members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The National Headquarters of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is planning a service flag in honor of the members of the association in the military or naval service. In order to obtain the necessary facts, allanches have been requested to forward to the national office the following information in regard to their members, or persons in the immediate families of members. Names of all members now in the army or navy, together with branch of the service, name of regiment or vision in which they are serving.

B., B. D., A. M.—The Man Who Made Mountain Out of a Hollow—President of the Ivy City Citizens' Association. There is one man in this city who entitled to the highest commendation for the uplift work he has done this city and Ivy City. In a little lated town known as Ivy City this secure man came some years ago, was at this place Rev. Withthrow acted a church and increased its membership to an alarming degree. The Washington Bee here; their stoical indifference to fear; their cheerfulness in the face of suffering and pain, all of which attests to their patriotism—their willingness to die, as well as live, for their country. It is certainly an inspiration—a dissipator of pessimism, to see how valiantly these colored boys of ours fight for democracy, and how indifferent they are to danger and to pain and suffering, when incurred in the line of duty. We are making history over here. We, or rather these men of ours at the front, are splendidly confirming the race's traditional loyalty, and each and all of them feel that when they return the Statue of Liberty in New York's harbor will bespeak universal liberty and equality before the law. Here's hoping that the Bee and all of its contemporaries is enjoying unrestricted prosperity, and is serving as a beacon light for its race in America. The cigars you so kindly gave me before leaving I smoked with pleasure, and as the delicate ringlets of smoke from each came forth and ascended toward the nebular azure during the nine days' voyage across the Atlantic, I received a new inspiration, and, indifferent to the threatened "German kulture," in the form of brutal, uncivilized submarines, they inspired me to build castles in the air—resplendent castles peopled with twelve millions of loyal colored citizens. With best wishes, believe me, sincerely, His policy has been not to spend an idle moment, and as a result he has been regularly at his post of duty, in cold, in rain, snow or in sunshine. His force may be called the leading body of men connected with that department. He is now in his third year as president of the Ivy City Citizens' Association. It was through his efforts that police protection has been sent to that section of the city. Rev. Withthrow is also treasurer of the Civic Alliance of the District of Columbia and a member of the Food Council of the District of Columbia; also a member of the Citizens' Welfare and Literary Association, which is for the purpose of stopping profiteering; also one of the presidents of the Citizens' Association of the District of Columbia, which took part in arranging certificates to be given to the soldiers who had done service on the Mexican border. There is no man more qualified educationally to teach and expound to the people. He is a graduate of the classical department of Bennett College and a graduate of the theological department of Howard University, with the degree of B. D., and studied specially at the Western Theological Seminary of Allegheny, Pa. A very complimentary letter from the President of the United States is another evidence of the esteem in which he is held. He stands today pre-eminent in the estimation of the well-thinking people of this country and the citizens of Ivy City especially, who expressed their regret of his leaving, and if rumors are true a new church is in contemplation by the people, which will likely call him back. No man is better loved by the people of Ivy City than this distinguished divine, and no man has done better work for the people in that section than Rev. Withthrow. The people say that his transfer from that section of the city, in which he was doing such good work, was a blunder. HOWARD THEATER. A Bee representative dropped into the Howard, Theater Monday afternoon and saw House Manager Byers, who was highly elated with the fine appearance of the theater. The colored painters, carpenters, scene builders and all other classes of workmen busily engaged in an effort to have the theater ready for its thousands of natrons by next week, its opening. The sanitary flooring that has been put down in the aisles and front door entrance is a remarkable improvement. The new flooring makes it noiseless when the patrons walk down the aisles. The new stage curtain is a gem, and the new scenery is par excellent. The private boxes have been thoroughly renovated and newly painted, with fine new drop curtains. The new motor machine, which gives the theater direct electric current, is the most expensive proposition that has been put in the theater. The clock, the gift of Dr. O. E. Johnson, the celebrated surgical chiropodist, is one of the new features that will attract the attention of the Howard patrons. The lobby has been dressed up lavishly. Manager Thomas has neither spared pains nor expense in putting a new dress on the main entrance. The dressing rooms have not been neglected, and the management have attended to every detail to make the theater up to date. Let everybody be ready for the great opening. NOT A HOSPITAL. October 28, 1918. The Editor of The Bee: Dear Sir: Kindly announce in your paper that the Armstrong Manual Training School has not been used as a hospital. Only one room has been used as a health office service station from which nurses and physicians have been sent to carry food and medicine to the needy. No patients have been received at the building. It is therefore in the same condition in which it was before the rage of the epidemic. HAMPTON'S FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY. Hampton, Va., October 29—The fiftieth anniversary of Hampton Institute will be celebrated with appropriate public exercises on October 31 and November 1, provided the local health board is not compelled to cancel all public gatherings on account of the influenza scourge. President Wilson, it is expected, will deliver an address on November 1st. Other speakers on the two-day program will include: Chancellor J. H. Kirklaid, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn.; the Rev, Dr. Wilton Merle-Smith, pastor of the Central Presbyterian Church, New York City; the Rev. Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute; Dr. Isaac Fisher, university editor, Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn.; Dr. Edwin A. Alderman, president of the University of Virginia, and Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. Among the anniversary guests will be members of the Hampton Institute Board of Trustees and loyal school supporters. Secretary Franklin K. Lane and Mrs. Lane are expecting to attend the Hampton anniversary. The Robert C. Ogden Auditorium will be dedicated. The story of Mr. Ogden's relation to education and national progress will be told. One evening will be given over to the Hampton Institute Alumni Association, of which the president is William M. Reid, class of '77, Portsmouth, Va. I have read with much interest your article entitled "Africa" in the Bee, and I wish to commend you on it. It not only poignantly exposes the unsettled conditions of Africa, but in its wide scope it embraces a suggestion of a remedy for the disorder. It makes us look for results and hope for the best. If my compliments will add a gleam of inspiration to the good work to strengthen its foundation, be assured that you have it untaunted. Respectfully, Alex. H. S. Lark. 902 S Street N. W., Washington, D. C., October 23, 1918. Enclosed find year's subscription to your valuable paper. This is my acknowledgment of interest in each issue. I would not state my inward satisfaction if I failed to say that your efforts in behalf of the business affairs which I have written you concerning several times have surpassed any citizen or person interested in our welfare. I shall keep you in touch with the affairs and assure you that your efforts have not been, and will not be, in vain, however considered. NATIONAL LIBERTY LEAGUE. The new organization known as the National Liberty League, will have a membership of five thousand before next year. The object of the new organization is for the amelioration of the colored Americans throughout the United States. The present officers of the league are W. Calvin Chase, president; Stewart M. Lewis, secretary, and Thomas L. Jones. Esq., legal adviser. CITED. FOR BRAVERY. First Sergeant Clarence S. Janifer, M. R. C., who attended Howard University Medical School, has been cited for bravery and has received the Croix de Guerre Cross. His division is with the Fourth French Army. Dr. Janifer is a nephew of Miss Sarah Janifer. COLORED CITIZENS ARE INSULTED Attorneys Fountain Payton and Roscoe C. Bruce Resent the Insults. War Workers Are Discriminated Against — Separate Accommodations Suggested — Whites Declared Incompetent and Colored Girls Are Asked to Do Their Work — Discrimination in Pay. There have been thousands of female white war workers brought to this city and appointed to the exclusion of competent colored girls, and finding that those who were assigned to the graphotype machines could not do the work, a Mr. Sweet, an Indian from South Dakota, called on Attorney Fountain Peyton, a member of the local bar, and also a member of the Board of Education, and stated that he wanted from two to three hundred colored girls to operate graphotype machines in the disbursing office of the War Risk Bureau, and asked Mr. Peyton to name such colored educators as would likely select the most competent persons. Mr. Sweet is the chief disbursing officer. Mr. Peyton named as the committee Miss Briggs, Dr. Lucy Moton, Prof. Garnett Wilkinson, Prof. Carter Woodson of the Armstrong Training School and one other. Mr. Sweet stated that he thought with a longer and more intimate acquaintance with the most efficient young colored women he could better select the proper people. Mr. Sweet himself called on several of them and also Mr. Sweet's brother called on several persons to the same end. Saturday, October 19th, Mr. Sweet asked Attorney Peyton to notify as many as he could to meet him at the disbursing office Sunday, October 20th, at 4:30 p.m. Mr. Peyton in the meantime notified as many as he could to be present. On his arrival he learned that a large number of people had already been notified from some source—by whom he did not know. There were high school and graded teachers, three white men, Messrs. Harrod, Sweet and Bailey. These men demonstrated the mechanism of the machines and how they were to be operated, and declared that it required persons of superior intelligence and care, so as not to make any mistakes in spoiling the plates. They gave the impression that a number of white girls had tried the machines, but without success; and now they wanted two or three hundred of the most intelligent colored girls that could be found; that the salary for all beginners would be $55 per month; that the colored girls would be required for night shifts, and that they wanted it distinctly understood that the colored girls would be persons of unimpeachable character, of the highest intelligence, and were under no circumstances to use the same rest rooms or cloak rooms or the toilets that were used by the white girls. Dr. Fairfax Brown stated to these gentlemen that they would hardly find colored people of the type they were seeking to work for $55 per month. Emma Merritt protesting against assigning colored girls to night work exclusively, and Roscoe C. Bruce vigorously ssailed the jim-crow proposition to restrict the colored girls to separate accommodations in the building. He declared that it was a brazen insult to young women who had brothers in the trenches fighting for their country and those buying A NATION'S STRENGTH IS IN ITS FOOD SUPPLY Est Lease — What nothing Create a Reserve AMERICA MUST FEED 120,000,000 AILIES rites NS ARE INSULTED The War Workers Apperence to Competent Liberty Bonds, Thrift and War Savings Stamps, contributing to the Red Cross and preaching patriotism to the masses of colored people. He further said that the principles were undemocratic, unjust and cruelly oppressive, and as a member of the committee representing the colored people, he felt it his duty not to compromise, but to resent a proposition so insulting. He said that he thought those ladies—pointing to those on the committee—had been invited here to assist the Government in winning the war, and not to be so groosly insulted to their faces as they had been. Mr. Peyton, in a dignified and positive manner, declared that he fully supported Mr. Bruce's contention, and that Mr. Bruce eloquently and forcibly expressed the sentiment of the colored citizens of this community. After these remarks a committee was appointed and requested to furnish thirty girls by 4 o'clock Wednesday, October 23d. In the meantime a colored girl who looked white applied at the disbursing office for appointment and was urged to go to work at once at a salary of $75 per month, being assured that she would soon be promoted to $1,100 per annum. Then another colored girl who looked like white applied for appointment and the same offer was made to her. The committee therefore realized that the colored people would not receive a square deal and refused to furnish the thirty girls by Wednesday, October 23d, or any girls at any time, unless they could be put to work on day and night shifts the same as white girls and receive the same salary and enjoy the same accommodations of the building, without segregation on account of color. Monday a young colored woman was telegraphed to report to the bureau, and while there she met Dr. Childs, who advised her not to accept the job because white girls were receiving $70 per month. He was seated at the table with one Mr. Bailey, who had been promoted from a messenger to the head of this colored division. He looked the young lady over and said to the others present that she would not be satisfactory, so she was sent home. LITERARY CLUB. The Delvers Literary Club met last Tuesday evening at the residence of Miss M. E. Hewlett, 717 Girard Street. Notwithstanding the fact that this club has suffered because a number of its members have been called to the colors, there is an indication that this will be a very successful year. The season's work comprises a political, economic and sociological study of the "world war." The following officers have been elected for the season 1918-19: Mr. George A. Parker, president; Miss Mayme E. Hewlett, vice president; Mrs. Grace Newman Dent, secretary; Miss Grace Tanner, assistant secretary; Miss Martha A. Harris, treasurer; Mr. R. F. G. Key, chaplain; Miss Sadie R. Johnson, keeper of papers; Mr. Charles Pryor, chairman of music committee. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is going good work, and it should be supported. Let every colored American citizen become a member of this great organization. Lord Chesters,eld Martin, with the strut of Col. Sellers, is beginning to show age. His vernacular has not changed, however, and neither has his gait lost any of its dignified air. Col. Sellers-Martin is never at ease unless he is discussing the merits and demerits of the war with his old college chum, Dr. Plummer, who seems to understand the compounding of drugs and the essence of the Velvet ice cream. Speaking of Dr. Plummer, he is one individual who takes life as it should be enjoyed. He seems to enjoy his cigar, even if it is one of his two-for. He would think that a better brand would reduce his prolits, hence he takes his case by selecting the cheapest in his case. Now that Evangelist Willbanks has been exonerated by a vote of 24 to 12—two-thirds of the great Baptist Conference—it would seem that his defeated opposers would give him a rest. There is more animus among certain disciples, of the Gospel toward their fellow workers than among the seceding followers of Satan, who rebelled against God. Some ministers will go the limit to get even with their fellow man. Now, what great sin has the Rev. Willbanks committed? There is a passage in the Scripture that ministers disregard. Once upon a time a woman was brought before Christ, charged with an offense. Her accusers were many. Christ was the judge and the jury. The witnesses were ready and prepared to testify. Now, a good judge generally knows what to say to a witness, so Christ waited until everybody had assembled, and in a language that startled the woman's accusers. He said: "Who among you are not guilty? If none, let him cast the first stone." Now Christ knew what He was talking about. He knew there were some guilty persons in the crowd. It was fully demonstrated when the entire bunch fled to parts unknown. There are some ministers more successful than some others, and for that reason the jealous ones will attempt to destroy them. Bryan was no doubt the most guilty man in his time and no doubt one of the most brilliant. There are some men who have colored blood in their veins and to hide its identity they will defame a race that is fast becoming the master of the world. Some people have a dread of being called colored. At this time a colored person stands ace high. If old "Flu" had visited his ravishes upon the colored people as it is visiting the whites, someone would attempt to sweep the colored brother from the face of the earth. God works in a mysterious way, and His wonders we have to find out. One of his accusers who declared cleanliness, now admits to the contrary. This makes the declaration of Christ correct. He who is without fault cast the first stone I am inclined to believe that it is a ministerial revenge: The war will no doubt be over before the commission from the colored Race Conference reaches France. The commission should start at once and put a quietus on the many rumors that are in circulation. This is about the only colored conference that has done any real work for the race. Rev. Jernagin is entitled to the highest credit for his efforts. He brought colored representatives from all over the country to the Capital of the Nation. He invaded the White House and called the hand of Secretary McAdoo. Some people predicted a failure, but the only failure that materialized was the man who failed to enroll as a delegate. *** After the war the commissioned officers and others who have been to the front will promenade Avenue De Nig in their semi-war uniforms and drop in at some of the high-price barber shops where politics and other grave questions are discussed, and relate their troubles and their bravery. They will tell you how they went over the top and fell at the bottom and remained there until it was all over. The latest news from the trenches is a message from Lieut. Vincent Thomas, who is in the trenches. Now, if Vincent can dodge the Hun's bullets before they pick him, there will be a great time in the old town when he returns. Our boys have imbibed French customs and civilization to such an extent that they don't care to return to America: America is a great country, no doubt, notwithstanding the prejudice and discrimination that exists. *** My good friend Charles Lane, of the Pension Office, is full of ideas. When two great brains meet such as he and Doc Richardson their ideas are just as foreign as the Atlantic is Uncle Sam Needs Our Men.

There never was but one colored Democrat in this country that amounted to a two-cent piece, and he was James C. Matthews, of Albany, New York. Matthews would certainly express himself to the powers that be. Since the days of Matthews colored Democracy was laid in the valance and found wanting. No white understrapper ran his office while he was recorder of deeds, and neither did local Democratic organizations. There have been lots of Republican trimmers in the office of the recorder of deeds. They were not good apologists. They were figureheads in a big office. Ralph Tyler was the boss of his office and the only one under a Republican administration. The last two Republican administrations had some of the weakest individuals that ever came down the pike. HOME FOR COLORED FEMALE WAR WORKERS. It is highly encouraging to note that the colored women of Chester, Pennsylvania, acting under the auspices of the Pennsylvania State Federation of Colored Women's Club. of which Mrs. Ruth L. Bennett is president and Mrs. Rebecca Aldridge of Pittsburgh, Pa., is honorary president, have purchased a building to be used as a home for women of the race who are doing war work in the many corporations in and near the city of Chester, Pa. This property will also be used as a center for governmental activities, viz: American Red Cross, Colored Women's Unit or the National Council of Defense, etc. This is the first effort on the part of the women in said city to do something definite along this particular line, although they have been working faithfully ever since they were called upon to help. This splendid achievement should be an inspiring example to colored women in every city where any appreciable group of them reside. A formal opening of the building in question was held October 30 to November 1. NOW READY. The 39th anniversary marc of the Washington Bee is now on sale at Adams' Music Store, 1911 9th Street N. W.

WASHINGTON, D. C., NOVEMBER 2, 1918. WE ARE INVITED, BUT REJECTED. Elsewhere in this issue of The Bee will be read with interest and much surprise the manner in which colored Americans are treated after they have been invited to sit in council with their more fortunate brethren to discuss questions that are vital to the Government. It will be seen that a well-known member of the bar, Attorney Fountain Peyton, had been requested to select a few of his race who were qualified from immediate contact to select the most qualified to do work that many white applicants failed to do or had not the ability to perform. It is sad to see how the committee was treated after it had assembled in the office of the man who extended the invitation. The question is, Is this a republic in deed and in fact in which the American people reside? A republic extends protection to every citizen and every citizen is treated alike and occupies the position for which his ability entitles him, regardless of his color or the curl of his hair. It was admitted that many who had tried the machines were not qualified, so an invitation was extended to the best qualified colored girls, but they were not to receive the same salary that white girls received, and the committee promptly rejected the offer and informed those who had invited the colored committee to confer that the kind of colored girls they wanted the committee could not furnish. Of course, there are some colored people who will gladly allow themselves to be jim-crowed and accept positions that white girls would refuse. There are some colored people who prefer to be jim-crowed and attend jim-crow moving picture theatres in preference to their own theatres. The manner in which colored people are jim-crowed and discriminated against by the Government they are loyally supporting is beyond understanding. There is not a more loyal race of people than the colored Americans, and why is it that they are rejected after they have been certified by the Civil Service Commission, after having passed successfully an examination, and thousands of white girls are appointed without an examination? Notwithstanding all this, the colored people say, appoint your white girls without an examination, but when you require colored girls to be examined, and they pass the Civil Service, for God's sake appoint them. The colored Americans are anxious for their Government to win this war, and in the name of God how can they help the Government if they are to be rejected and informed that "you can't expect the same priviliges given white people, although you do better work"? We are invited, but rejected.

Two-thirds of the money that has been spent for the purchase of Liberty Bonds has been by Republicans; three-fourths of the man power has been furnished by the North, East and West. Then, why should not a Republican House and Senate be elected next month? No Republican in either branch of Congress has opposed the Administration in the conduct of the war, and the President has not appealed to any Republican constituency to defeat any Republican Senator or Representative in the House, to re-elect another in his place, like the case of Vardaman and others. Is it fair and just to the Republican party to appeal to the nation to elect Democrats and defeat Republicans who have and are now loyally supporting the Administration? There is not a Republican in either branch of Congress who would embarrass the Administration, and The Bee ventures the assertion that the Republican party is more loyal to the Administration than the Democrats who have been placed in responsible positions and have adopted rules of segregation and discrimination against a loyal race of people; who have spent their money in the purchase of Liberty Bonds and responded readily to the call to enlist in defense of their country. There is every reason for the return of the Republican party to power. There is every reason for every loyal voter in this country to see to it that he cast his vote next week for men who will appreciate what the faithful black allies have done and are doing for the world's war. The black man will never be a traitor, but he will see, if God gives him power, that men who believe in and appreciate the loyalty of race are elected to the next Senate and House of Representatives. The suffragists will repudiate the President's appeal to the voters of the nation. PENDING ISSUES. mes" is the title of a new magazine by Joseph C. Manning at June. It is a curious fact that a man who devotes his main energy to the colored people in the magazine before us states that stands today for the same protest political slavery in the South against the slave-holding. It stands for the same Republics southern disfeminism. "Pending Issues" is the title of a new magazine of 24 pages edited and published by Joseph C. Manning at Newark, N. J. It was started last June. It is a curious fact that Mr. Manning is a Southern white man who devotes his main energies to the establishing of the political manhood of the colored people in the United States. A copy of the magazine before us states his principles as follows: Pending Issues stands today for the same principles of human freedom, as against political slavery in the South, just as William Lloyd Garrison stood against the slave-holding democracy of the South in his day. Pending Issues stands for the same Republican party principles today, as against Southern disfranchisement, just as did Abraham Lincoln stand for a government "of the people, by the people; for the people" in his day. Pending Issues today arraigns the inconsistency of not upholding constitutional suffrage guarantees in one section of the country. while they are enforced in the rest of the country, just as Abraham Lincoln arraigned the inconsistency of a nation "half slave and half free" in his day.

While much of the war work, despite its humiliating features to many of the doers thereof, has the additional characteristic of patriotism, there is nothing patriotic, nor is there any good reason under heaven why colored women in these times of scarcity of labor should stoop to the disgraceful and degrading position of shining shoes in a barber shop, as is now done in at least one of the large white shops in this city. There are thousands of jobs, menial though they may be, where every conviction would not be violated and every particle of chivalry outraged, at least not near so often in the course of a single day. The more shocking part of it, too, if there can be a more shocking thing, is that this is a married woman with a husband in good health! He is doubtless the chief sinner, and is probably not worth being reckoned with; but if we remain silent and inactive in the face of this condition, we are not much less than partners in and parties to this outrage. For the tempting morsel of a few dollars they have not only sold their birthright, but the birthright of a race. Our caps should be doffed to the woman who would rather starve than accept such a station in life. There are hundreds of positions in homes open for our women if they want honorable work. Many of them have an aching for office. RALPH W: TYLER IN PARIS. Mr.'s issue of The Bee will be seen and Mr. Ralph W.

Mr. Tyler writes from Paris, and states that the colored soldiers are being treated well in France. Mr. Tyler's letter confirms the statement of Mr. Bolden which appeared in The Bee last week. Our war correspondent is at the Grand Hotel, Paris, France. The Bee, as well as the people, have been anxiously waiting to hear from Correspondent Tyler. The Bee, on behalf of the American people, extends its greetings to Mr. Tyler and wishes him a safe return. TIMELY TOPICS ry.—The famous Ninth Cavalry (or vostok en route to Siberia. It wi territory from the control of the Ninth. Cavalry.—The famous Nintli Cavalry (colored) recently landed at Vladivostok en route to Siberia. It will assist in the wresting of that territory from the control of the volsheviki allies of Germany. Color Line in Colleges.—Colored students are not now welcomed at some of the Northern colleges that formerly received them. This reported of Dickenson College (Pennsylvania) and Oberlin College (Ohio). Et tu Oberlin? The reason assigned is that the Students' Army Training Corps at those colleges will contain many Southern white men. The move is said to accord with the policy of the War Department. The Churches and the "Flu."—The preachers of Washington, or some of them, have made a kick and tried to raise hell because the Commissioners of the District temporarily suspended the congregating of the people at churches during the influenza epidemic, putting the churches for this purpose in the category with the theatres. The Commissioners stood pat. They do not admit the theory that prayer can stop a disease germ any quicker than it can a bullet. These preachers ought to be ashamed of themselves. Their attitude suggests superstition or mediaevalism or pure selfishness: certainly not a regard for the public good. Seven War Rules.—Eat less, breathe more; talk less, think more; ride less, walk more; clothe less, bathe more; worry less, work more; waste less, give more; preach less, practice more. Should Reform.—Col. Robert G. Ingersoll, on hearing a young Democratic orator declaim, "I am a Democrat, my father was a Democrat, my grandfather was a Democrat," dismissed the oratory with the remark: "The young man ought to reform; the disgrace of one generation of his family was quite sufficient." A noted local preacher argues that the local churches should not be closed on account of the epidemic because there is no precedent for such a thing. He fails to see in it the element of reform. Miscegenation of Whites and Blacks.—Dr. C. G. Woodson prints an interesting and informing article on this subject in the current issue of The Journal of Negro History, of which he is the editor. The article treats of such miscegenation from very early times in the regions of the Mediterranean and Red Seas down to the present time in America. The white race has been mainly responsible for this mixing of races. At an earlier time they were indifferent about the results; more recently they are much concerned to check the further progress of it. Much of the repressive legislation and practice directed against the darker races is due to this apprehension. Any sort of mixing of remotely different races is to be discouraged for reasons of social convenience and happiness, if for no other. But oppressive laws and insulting regulations do not stop miscegenation—never did and never will. Colored Labor Rights.—New Orleans has formed a War Board of Labor for the purpose of settling local labor troubles. The board consists of twelve members, six representing employers, three representing white labor and three representing colored labor. The purpose is to adjust local labor disputes. Even in Mississippi.—Judge George H. Ethridge of the Supreme Court of Mississippi, speaking on the labor question, says that industry would have to be reorganized on a basis of greater industrial democracy; that labor should have some representation on boards of directors, and that the public should have representation in the management of large incorporated industries. Such a scheme could not fail to benefit the colored people in the South, if impartially administered. The colored laborer works over hours and is poorly paid for his work.

Boundary Lines—New States. I now proceed to propose new boundary lines for some of the existing states of Europe, and to specify and limit the new states that ought to be erected in Europe and Western Asia. 44. Great Britain to take Heligoland. 45. Frante to extend east to the River Rhine and north to the River Moselle. 46. Belgium, at the east, to extend to the River Rhine, and from the River Moselle north to about the latitude of Dusseldorf; to take that salient of Hollandish territory called Limburg, south of the parallel of latitude just mentioned and east of the Moselle, and to take that strip of territory now held by Holland south of the River Scheldt. Holland to be liberally compensated for the territory yielded by her (see Holland). Belgium to take also the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg, conditionally. 47. Holland having yielded for Belgium the land south of the River Schelde and salient of Limburg, may extend her domain eastward and northward, as follows: North of the new Belgian line along the Rhine as far north as the junction of the Rhine with the River Lippe; thence along the River Lippe eastward to the 8th Greenwich meridian; thence northward to the headwaters of the River Werse; thence northward along the Werse and Ems rivers to the North sea, and Holland may take the island of Borkum and all adjacent islands west of the mouth of the Ems River. 48. Denmark to take back Schleswig and Holstein, and also take all other German territory north of the Elbe River and west of the province of Mecklenburg-Schwerin, including Lauenburg, Ratzeburg, the island of Fehmern and the free city of Hamburg, and its dependencies; Provided, that a zone ten miles wide and including the Kiel Canal shall, while under the sovereignty of Denmark, be under international control; and provided, that Denmark's accession of Hamburg and dependencies shall be postponed until the termination of the Settlement Period. 40. Italy to take all that part of the Tyrol east, south and west of the Etch River, and that branch of the Etch that flows out of the Carnic Alps past the town of Tablach, that part of Carinthia south of the River Drave, all of Carniola and all of Coritz and Istria, or the Austrian coastland south to Cape Promontore, but shall take no Adriatic coastal lands or islands south or east of Istria; that is to say, no part of Dalmatia. 50. Serbia to become a great Jugo- Slav state or confederation, which shall take all Austrian or Hungarian territory south of Danube and Drave rivers, and south and east of Styria, Carniola, and Istria, and to include Serbia, Slavonia, Croatia, Bosnia, Herzegovina and Dalmatia and adjacent Adriatic islands from Istria at the north as far south as the Punta d'Ostro and Boeche di Cattaro. I recommend that the south boundary of Serbia, or the Grecian border, he the Drin River and other rivers near the 2nd parallel of latitude. 51. Montenegro to take all the coast land and islands of Dalmatia that lie east of Montenegro on the Adriatic Sea and south of Herzegovina and the Punta d'Ostro, thus affording Montenegro a longer coast line. 52. Greece to extend north to about the 42nd parallel, east of Albania, and to extend east to the borders of old Eastern Roumelia and Adrianiple and south of that line to the seas, and to include the Island of Thaso. This is conditional on Greece's becoming a republic (But see Rule 61). 53. Roumania to include Hungarian Transylvania, Austrian Bukowina and Russian Bessarabia, and to retain the Dubrurja territory south of the Danube. 54. Switzerland, the mother of modern republicanism and freedom, should now come into her full reward on the voluntary motion of the rest of mankind. Switzerland may take all that part of the Tyrol north and east of the Etch River and that branch thereof that flows out of the Carnic Alps past the town of Tablach, or all that part of the Tyrol to be taken by Italy; and Licttenstein. 55. Albania should be encouraged EDUCATIONAL THE AGRICULTURAL AND TECHNICAL COLLEGE WHAT COLLEGE SHALL I ATTEND THIS SESSION? You should attend the A. & T. College. Its Twenty-fifth Annual Session begins October 1, 1918. You will have the advantages of three strong departments—Agricultural, Mechanical and Academic. A new department for Teacher-Training in Vocational Agriculture will also be available. Unsurpassed opportunities for Military Training and advancement. For catalogue and further information, write today to and assisted to become a civilized and autonomous nation. I recommend that, with international sanction and aid, the Swiss nation be invited to take Albania under tutelage and protection for the period of twenty-five years. New States in Europe. 56. Lithuania will be a new sovereign republic, and shall consist of all of the present territory now known as West Russia, and in addition the provinces of Courland and Suwalk, in Russia, and that part of East Prussia north of the Pregel River. The object of it is to consolidate and nationalize the Lithuanian and Lettish peoples. 57. Bohemia will be a new sovereign republic, whose object is to consolidate and nationalize the Czech and Slovak peoples. It shall include the present Bohemia, Moravia, Austrian Silicia, the parts of Upper Austria and Lower Austria north of the Danube River, and that part of the northwest Hungary bounded by the Danube River, the parallel 45 degrees 45 minutes, the Theiss River and the Hegyallya Mountains; also the salient of Prussian Silecia called Oppeln. 58. Ruthenia, or Galicia, shall be a new sovereign republic of the Ruthenian race, and shall include at least Bukowina and that part of Galicia east of the branch of the Vistula River near the Greenwich meridian 21 degrees 30 minutes. 59. Poland will be a new sovereign republic, and will include all of the present Russian Poland, except Suwalk; all of Russian Volhynia west of about the Greenwich meridian 25 degrees 30 minutes; that part of Austrian Galicia west of the branch of the Vistula River near the Greenwich meridian 21 degrees 30 minutes; all of East Prussia except the part north of the Pregel River; all the rest of the territory now held by Prussia that formed a part of the kingdom of Poland following the treaty of Lublin in A. D. 1569, and at the time of the first partitian of Poland in 1772; that is to say, the territory now variously called West Prussia, Posen and Dantzig, and also that part of Pomerania east of the River Stolpe. 60. Ukrania will be a new sovereign republic, the limits of which to be defined by the Settlement Commission. 61. Finland may be a new sovereign republic, the limits to be defined by the Settlement Commission. 62. Europa would be an appropriate name for a new sovereign state comprising the city of Constantinople, and provinces of Adrianople and Eastern Roumelia. This state, if established, should be under international protection and should be specially charged with the policing of the adjacent straits, which should be open and free to the commerce of the world. But I recommend that an effort be made to Europeanize this region and that the whole of it be assigned to the Greek republic. 63. Eurasia, or part in Europe and a part in Asia, would be an appropriate name for an independent domain which ought to be established about the Caucusus Mountains, between the Caspian and Black Seas. Its northern boundary should be nearly identical with the present north border of Northern Caucasia, following the courses of the Kuma and Manych Rivers and the extreme lower course of the Don River. Its southern boundary should be about the courses of the Kura and Rion Rivers, separating it from Armenia at the south. This region contains many distinct races speaking many languages. The people are fine specimens of men, but backward in civilization. It would be impossible to erect here a single republic or kingdom in which these tribes could be harmonized, and yet they should not longer suffer the tyranny of alien domination. I recommend that this domain and these peoples be constituted the "Eurasian Confederaton," CULTURAL AND SOCIAL COLLEGE WILL I ATTEND THIS SESSION? T. College. Its Twenty-fifth Annual Ses- sion will have the advantages of three strong physical and Academic. For-Training in Vocational Agriculture will Military Training and advancement. Information, write today to JAMES B. DUDLEY after the model of the Swiss Confederation. I recommend that the Swiss nation be invited to take this new confederation under tutelege and protection for the period of fifty years, with international sanction and aid, imparting academic and industrial education and lessons in the science of government. 64. Armenia. Let Armenia be an independent Christian state south of the Caucasus. It should include the most of the present Turkish region called Armenia, the Persian province called Azerbaijan and all that part of Russian Trans-Caucasis south of the Kura and Rion Rivers. For a period it should be a limited monarchy, under international protection, and eventually a republic. 65. Zion, the Mosaic Holy Land, to be a sovereign state, headed by a governor appointed by the League of Nations, or appointed at first by the victorious allies, and otherwise to have a representative form of government, but so devised as to assure combined Jewish and Christian control. It should include all the Syrian territory from the Mediterranean to the 32th Greenwich meridian, or to the Arabian desert; its northern boundary should be the parallel 34 degrees 30 minutes, and it should extend south to Egypt, Hedjaz and the Red Sea. In this state all religions should be tolerated and protected. 66. Hedjaz, or Mecca, shall be an independent Mohammedan state; and shall include at least the present provinces of Hedjaz, Azir and Yemen; but if it shall be deemed better include all Arabia in this state, the name of it would better be Arabia. 67. Persia, as an offset for the territory yielded by her, may take all the Turkish territory east of the Tigris River and south of Armenia. Next week. I will discuss territorial changes in Siberia and Eastern Asia and touch further on Russia. WILL NOT DISCRIMINATE. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through its secretary, John R. Shillady, of New York, announces that it has been advised by George E. Haynes, director of Colored Economics, United State Department of Labor, that as a result of action taken by the Adjustment Division of the Department of Labor, and the Industrial Relations Department of the War Department's Aircraft Production Bureau, an understanding has been reached with the Curtiss Aeroplane Company of Buffalo, New York, by which colored women will not be discriminated against by the employment department of the Curtiss Company. The original complaint that the Curtiss plant refused to employ colored women was made by the Buffalo Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, through a committee composed of Mr. Frank C. Ferguson, chairman; Rev. Richard W. Boynton and Rev. W. H. Boo-cock, and taken up by the Association's national headquarters at the request of the local branch. HAMPTON ANNIVERSARY POSTPONED. Hampton, Va.. October 26.—The Hampton Institute 50th anniversary celebration, announced for October 31 and November 1, has been postponed on account of the present nation-wide epidemic of influenza. This action has been taken by the Hampton faculty and has been confirmed by the Hampton trustees. Conference of Musicians. R. Nathaniel Dett, director of vocal music at Hampton Institute, in announcing the postponement of the conference of Negro musicians, and asking for the hearty co-operation of his musical friends, said: North Carolina THE CAFE Scientific instruction of a method to remove blemishes. Guarantees to bleach your face two shades lighter. The first and only one in this city to operate and give this treatment. Perfectly harmless. The cut above shows how Madame Smith, the most up-to-date beauty culturist, operates her electrical blemish remover. THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH BEAUTY CULTURE SCHOOL (Incorporated) Offers an excellent opportunity for the woman who desires to enter the business world, by taking up a course in BEAUTY CULTURE. Nobody nowadays can say, "I have no chance." There are and always will be new lines with each woman—whether she will be one of those to create and take advantage of the opportunities that THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH BEAUTY CULTURE SCHOOL OFFERS. We teach the following courses: Hair Dressing, Facial Massage, Mani-curing, Scalp Treatment, Instantaneous Bleaching, Electric Treatment for the Face and Scalp. "The idea of holding such a conference at Hampton has not been abandoned. It is hoped that the session will be held next spring in connection with Hampton's annual music festival. Meanwhile the program of the conference is being enlarged." Hampton's S. A. T. C. The Students' Army Training Corps unit at Hampton Institute numbers 445. It is made up of 200 men, who come from Fisk University, 196 former Hampton Institute students and 49 men who were held over from a previous training detachment. Addresses were recently delivered to the S. A. T. C. by Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton; Capt. Robert H. Neely, commanding officer, and Harry J. De Yarmett, director of the Hampton Institute Trade School. At a cost of $15,000 a modern and well equipped Y. M. C. A. building has been erected for colored workmen. It is provided with billiard tables, bowling alleys, shower baths, a soda fountain, a library of 1,000 volumes and thirty current periodicals, a moving picture theater, and auditorium. A gymnasium for indoor activities and a swimming pool are soon to be installed. The Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis Railroad, have created Bootleg Specials. It is estimated that not less than fifty barrels of whiskey are brought into Washington daily. Special tops, in Baltimore and Washington, are in operation. These specials leave at 10, 12, 2:04, 4 and 5 o'clock for Washington. A chorus of 300 voices and a program of stirring addresses were a part of a great patriotic celebration of colored people in St. Louis at the sessions of the National Baptist Convention. Notice of the above has been sent out by the War Department in a bulletin entitled, "The Colored American in War Work." History shows that the colored American has taken part in every war that the United States has engaged in, and is in the present war to the tune of 400,000 soldiers. MME. AGNES J.
