FIGURES DON'T LIE.-Figures do
not lie when put in the right place.
Here are a few cold facts. Over
two-thirds of the people of Mexico,
Central America and South America
have colored blood in their veins.
Over u per cent or 100000 people
in the U. S. have cOlOred blood.
Practically all Of our possessions are
cOlOTed. Alaska is Indian, and the
white south and western arid United
States are one-fouTth cOnsumptive
or sick Yankees"
The pure whites in all U. S. A. are
about 8O,000,0OO. Canada has about
100000 or less pure white; so has
Australia. All Africa has less than
100000 whites. The whole white
population of the globe is about 400
100000. Of this white bunch of fools,
100000 males, the best blood, has
been killed in the last three years;
100000 more males are so disabled
they cannot marry, breed or care for
the young and have themselves be-
come more of a burden to the iV-
ing than if they were dead.
Besides this, 100000 more whites
are held in prison camps, so that they
cannot breed. Puritanism is fast be-
traying England and America to their
respective doom, because they junk

After this war in Europe all that is
necessary to complete the destruc-
ton of the proud moralistic white
race is a CORY war between Japan
and America.
The darker races do not hesitate
to breed all their women, although
they now oUtnumber the pure white
race almost three to one. Thus is

WILSON'S APPEAL.-In these
days of broken relations, exploding
mines, unexpected bombs and sensa-
tons from the bottom Of the sea to
the clouds; and while there are more
or less successful revolutions here
on this thorny earth, it is good policy
to have on hand some sound and
timely reading to calm the conster-
nation or, better still, sensations.
For such reading l will recommend
the presidents appeal of Aug. Is,
1914, to the American people. The
words will be found on page 446 and
447 of the 1915 edition of the Daily
News Almanac. For those who have
no file of that worthy reference book,
will quote one little paragraph:
81 venture, therefore, my fellow
coUntTymep, to speak as a solemn
word of warning to you against that
deepest, most subtle, most essential
breach Of neutrality which may
spring out of partisanship, out of
passiOnately taking sides. The United
States must be neutral in fact as well
as in name during these days that
are to try mems souls. We must be
impartial in thoughts as well as in
action, must put a curb upon our
sentiment as well as upon every
transaction that might be construed
as a preference of one party to the
struggle before another"
These words are written for 100,-
100000 inhabitants of the U. S. and
should be read and reread and kept
in memory from Wall street to the
Rio Grande.-Hu

WASTE OF FOODSTUFF WOULD FEED BELGIUM SAYS c. H. MOORMAN
Food Conservation Campaing Week of October 2S When Pastors Will Be Asked to Speak on
 the Subject

c. H. Moorma, representing Herbert C. Hoover. food administrator, made q very convincing talk to the Central School Improvement association yester- day afternoon at the Central High school.
 conditions in Europe, especially calling attention to the German atrocities in Belgium and Poland, and pointed ,ut the fact that the thousands starving in those countries could in many cases be fed from the waste from American homes
 After a graphic description of condi- tions in Europe, Mr. Moorman explained in what way Americans would be asked to assist in conserving the food of the nation. Wheat he said is the fun damental foodstuff to be conserved for wheat bread and not corn bread is the bread of the army.
 The food conservation campaign which was to begin on October 2 was post poned a week on account of the liberty loan campaign, which will be under way at that time, to Sunday October 2S, on which day all pastors in the Birming- ham district will be asked to speak on the matter of conserving the nation s produce, and on Monday, October 29, cards will be distributed as heretofore stated.
 Professor Atwold of the Tuskegee in- stitute is to have charge of organiz- ing the colored people of Alabama. so that they too may help in the matter.

HORNADY IS PRO ITEM
 HEAD OF COMMISSION
Board Names Him to Position That Has Been Vacant Since
 Weatherly Left

It Is now President Pro Tenn Hornady.
 It came about this way: At the conn mission meeting yesterday Clerk Lloyd called attention to the fact that since MT Weatherly had severed his connec- ton with the city there had been no president pro tenn, and that the law said that there should be president pro tenn at all times. Consequently, the board named MT. Hornady, the honor be- ing bestowed upon him in view of his ability and fitness for the place, and as a compliment in view of the fact that he was the only member of the old board retained for another term.
 The duties of the president pro tenn are identical with those of the president, and he has the same power in the absence or the president as that official. In view Of the fact that MT. Hornady was absent in Atlanta attending the funeral Of hls aunt, and could not be present at the session of the commission yesterday the honor will be even more appreciated by him upon his return to the city today

BOY SCOUTS ID AID LIBERTY BOND SALE. Loyal Youngsters Will Take Active Part in the Sale
 of Bonds

The Boy Scouts are going to the bat again This time it is In the liberty loan campaign and judging from the hits they have been making in other pubic matters in Birmingham recently their batting average should take another jump.
 The scouts, without pauslng to hear the many congratulations of their splendid work in the reunion of the Confederate Veterans here last week, are getting their machinery in order for their part of the big national campaign for next week. Scouts who sell 10 or more bonds are to receive special war service em- blems which will be struck off by the treasury department bearing the seal or the department, and that of the Boy Scout organization and the names Of the scouts entitled to wear them. President Wilson has also offered a flag to the troop of scouts in Alabama which makes the best showing.
 Quite programme Is being arranged for opening the drive. All scouts will assemble at Capitol park Saturday at ] o'clock, and after the programme will start the only exclusively scout parade ever held in the city. The scout drum corps will be out and various floats will appear to stimulate interest in float ting the big loan. Special literature will be distributed and after the boys have had time to study the manual of sales manship" gotten out by the government especially for the scouts in this campaign they will start soliciting on Monday, and the boys are earnestly hoping that they will not be turned down by their many friends in Birmingham.

Asa Rountree, arrived in Bir- mingham last night. and immediately upon arrival was notified by the war department to report to Mineola, Long Island, where he will go into further training for aviation work.
 MT. Rountree's marks were as high as 95 in many subjects. and 1t is quite a compliment to him to be recognized at once, in view of his age, he being just barely 21 years of age.
