that unless a sufficient stock of books
was maintained in the repositories dam
ages would ensue and numbers of them

facilitate the distribution Of their books.
publishers claim that unprecedented
labor conditions, together with the
20-day embargo placed on all book ship
ments by the railroads, have unavoid-
ably retarded the supply. Although this

U. 5. ARMY UNABLE TO
CARE FOR ITS WOUNDED
Senator Chamberlain Says Hospital
Facilities Inadequate and No De-
mobilization Plans Are Made

WASHINGTON.-Senator Chamber
lain of Oregon, chairman of the SEN
ate military committee, spoke for
more than three hours in the senate
in criticism of the war department,
dealing particularly with what he
termed the failure to provide adequate
hospital facilities for the returning
wounded soldiers and to formulate a
definite plan for rehabilitation.
The senator reiterated many of the
charges he made in his address at
New York soon after the nation en-
tered the war, and in a subsequent ad
dress in the senate, and said that in
Formation that had come to light since
had justified the statements he had
made. Senator Chamberlain's New
York address brought about sharp
statement from President Wilson. Re-
ferring indirectly to that criticism,
the Oregon senator said his purpose
now was to bring about an improve
ment in conditions.
Senator Chamberlain, who was
heard by crowded galleries, said the
war department is pursuing the same
dilatory tactics it did in the prosecu-
ton of the war many months ago.
"If the war department" de declared,
paid one-half the attention to prepa-
rations for receiving these boys as
they are to getting legislation through
congress in order to protect contract
ors who made contracts for war sup
plies over the telephone in violation
of law, this matter would soon be set
tied"
The need of the definite policy os
rehabilitation was urged by the sena-
tor, who said that if one were not
established unrest among the men in
cantonments and overseas would not
cease. He praised the British plan
for returning its soldiers to civil life,
saying it was framed along economic
lines.

NEGROES WILL DEMAND
JUSTICE AND EQUALITY

RICHMOND, Va, Dec 31-One
problem that is causing grave con-
cern here is the large purchase of
firearms and munitions by the Ne.
groes of the city. They reached a
point few days ago which called
forth special meeting of the State
Council of Defense. The result of
the meeting was circular sent
broadcast urging dealers to refrain
from selling further dmmunition and
firearms to Negroes.
While the proceedings of the meet
ing were secret, it is understood that
leaders Of the Negro element were
summoned and told what must be
done. At the same time an order
went out Strengthening the home
guard organizations. From indirect
sources it is rumored that Negroes
have issued a statement that once
their soldiers return from Europe
they intend to force the white man
to give them equal rights.
This latter situation is viewed with
alarm by many of the leading citi
zens.

No Race Prejudice Shown By f|u
Germ; Attacks Those Most Fit;
White Supremacy Is ExenlpIfied

But now the philosophy of the state
ment: Gods a nigger!" If God
wanted to identify himself with any
body in the United States, why not
with the "niggers?" When He chose to
come into the world that was owned
and bossed by the Romans, He did not
come as a proud Roman, but as a de-
spised and helpless Jew. Is not the
heart of the Eternal sympathetic?
He shows a disposition to identify
himself with those who are right
and especially when they happen to
be right and wronged at the same
time. Note that expression-not
right and wrong"-but right and
wronged-wronged! When man was
battling a losing battle against the
devil, God decided to become, not one
of the mighty devils, but Man-to
identify himself with the weak and
wronged party. And after deciding
to become a man, what man? Romans
were then the "big" people of the
world, but God became a Jew. He
might just as easily have become q
great Roman general and gotten the
kowtows of all creation. Or better
still. He could have iucarnated him
self in Augustus and received the
homage of the mighty. But He
didn't
have always said that I always
will believe that God has in large
measure all of the good things which
He has given in smaller measure to
man-and one of these good things
certainly is a sense of humor! God
would not think of siding up with the
mighty and naughty and vain, when
it is so much more fun to be found
adding His power to the weak" and
humble and real. If he wanted to
rub shoulders with men in this gen.
Grafton, l have no idea that He would
come as Teuton or even as Anglo.
Saxon. But what opportunities and
what a great inclination His heart
would have to be come identified with
a Chinese coolie or a Georgia mig
ger"
If God chooses to be one thing more
than another in America, it may still
be said thoughtfully and reverently
