look forward to the event which, it is
believed, will be the greatest in the

ton society keeps open house, and
some Of the greatest social functions
ever held are being planned

ANTI-ALIE LAW
INDORSED BY VOTERS
IN CALIFORNIA

(By the Associated Negro Press)
San Francisco, Cal, Nov. 11.-Cali-
fornia voters overwhelmingly indorsed
the anti-alien land law recently adopt
ed by the state legislature and put
up to the voters for referendum.
This action insures that in the fu-
ture no alien who is not eligible to
citizenship under federal naturaliza-
tion laws may own or lease agricul-
tural land within the state.
1t does not affect existing ownership
or titles. The statute expressly states
that aliens that are affected by it may
acquire, use, transmit, and inherit
interest in real property to the ex-
tent and for the purpose prescribed
by treaties, and not otherwise. But
the existing treaty between the Unit
ed States and Japan is silent on this
subject.
1t is pointed out that the statute is,
ineffect, a copy of Japanese law which
forbids the ownership or lease of ia
panese real property by any foreigner.
The original anti-alien land law was
enacted in 1918 and permitted short
term leases of lands. The new meas
ure forbids any lease, and was taken,
according to California opinion, be-
cause of various subtrefuges practiced
by the Japanese which in effect nulli-
fled the earlier statute. The Demo
cratic and Republican senatorial can
didates at the election for United
States senator We'd with each other
in support of the anti-alien measure,
the defeated candidate making a state
ment that he could bear his defeat as
long as he was certain of the passage
of the anti-Japanese law

The Word "obey" Cut
Out Of Marriage Ritual
Especial to The Tribune)

London, Nov -Congregationalist
brides here no longer need promise
in the marriage service to obey their
husbands. A committee of the Con-
gregational Union of England and
Wales, appointed to draw up a new
form of service, has decided that
modern ideas favor the omission of
the word "~obey," and this notwith-
standing the fact that no woman sat
on the committee; neither were any
requests received from women 10
omit the fateful word.
'All churches are becoming less
strict in their insistence on the word
ing of the marriage SERVICE" said
the secretary of the Women's Free
dom League. Even in Anglican
churches the word "obey" is some
times omitted at the brides desire,
and great number of leading non
conformist ministers have lately
made a practice of cutting out the
VOW to obey"

President-Elec And
Wife Will Be "Just
Folks" They Declare

(By the Associated Negro Press)
Marion, Ohio, Nov. 1.-THE wife
of President-elect Harding, who has
been his constant companion, in COM
menting on the question, What will
you do when you go to the White
House?" made the following reply:
What will I do when we go to the
White House? Well, l will describe
it best, perhaps, this way: Do you re-
member on one of the campaign trips
and at big meeting, the speaker in
troduced Senator Harding and me as
just folks? Well, that is exactly
what we shall be in Washington-just
folks. That isn't any pose; I mean
it."
Commenting ON the statement, one
of our citizens said: "There is hope
for everyone with spirit of just
folks permeating our country. There
has been too much class distinction in
this land and as a matter of fact we
are all just folks"

new WORLD FOUND

BY AUTOMOBILES
Especial to The Tribune)

Edmonton, Alberta, Nov. 10.-C. Fl
Mitchell, treasurer and minister d
municipal affairs of the Alberta gov
eminent, now knows how Columbu'
felt when he discovered a new world
He was recently on a motor toli
through southern Alberta. It was hi
first visit to that part of the prov
ince in ten years. Then it was opel
range, with only lonely ranch hous|
here and there. He found it changel
into populous country of farms.
He passed through the rich irr|
gated districts and was drivin]
across the open prairie of the Boz
Slope. The farms had been left bd
hind. The unsettled region was rem
iniscent of old days. Suddenly ol
the horizon loomed an oasis of farm
houses with outbuildings and wind
mills set among golden grain field
and pastures filled with livestock
This he thought must be a mirage
AS phenomenon born of heat an,
distance it intrigued him.
His machine reeled off a few mile
and he found the mirage reality
Three hundred Scandinavian familie
from Minnesota had settled there tw,
years before. They had come quiet
ly, built their homes, broken the raw
turf for their crops and become pros
porous. A little village had arisel
in the midst of the settlement whicl
was almost independent of the out
side world. The presence of thes
new citizens was scarcely know
twenty miles away. Mr.. Mitchell. al
official of the province, had neve
heard of them. For him the settle
ment was San Salvador and he wa
it's Columbus.

Woman Keeps Vow Of
Seclusion 80 Years
Especial to The Tribunel

Hancock, N. Y. Nov lin the
spring of 1860 Hancock received an
announcement of the engagement of
one of its most prominent young
women, Miss Fannie M, Read, to a
lieutenant in the regular army. The
wedding date was made known soon
afterward, and then came the report
that hcr father objected to the match
and would not permit the marriage.
Hearttroken, Miss Read took an
oath that she never would be seen
outside her room again She locked
herself in her chamber and only
opened the door when relatives
brought her meals. That was in
1861, and since then Miss Read has
existed merely in name.
Last week the woman's brother, E.
Darwin Read, died. The last coach
was ready to leave the house when
the door opened and Miss Read, now
rs years old and feeble, appeared on
the porch. She walked slowly to the
carriage, glancing to neither right
nor left, ignored the hand of a wom-
an who was her playmate in child
hood, and rode away to the cemetery.
Upon her return home she went
again to her room, where she has
stayed since the first year of the civil
war and locked the door.

ABLE MINISTER'S

ACCOUNT. POVERTY
Especial to The Trlbunel

Chicago, Nov. 11.-That the church
is failure, and thousands of preach
ers are leaving the ministry because
they cannot pay their bills, was as
serted by DR.. Newell Dwight Hills
of Brooklyn in an address before the
Congregational Ministers Union here
this week
"The church itself has not broken
down." said DR.. Hills, "but the peo-
pie are not using the church and
supporting it as they should The
churches are run by men who are
not equal to the task and who refuse
to support the ministers"
DR.. Hills referred in his address
to a letter from Emma Goldman
which had been intercepted by the
government and which was shown to
him ty friend in the secret service.
The letter says 10000 are dying in
Russia every month and that the
streets Of Petrograd are choked with
human bodies.
Russia is like chicken with it's
head cut off" said DR.. Hills. under
Lenine, Russia has abolished the au-
tocracy of a czar and set up an au-
tocracy of labor. Under this system
Shakespeare would have plowed corn
and Tennyson would have dug bitches

death-blow as political issues in the
recent general election.
The race issue was injected in all

hers have been increased by the re-

tion was well and cunningly thought
out, and thousands of dollars were

POLITICAL WORKERS
NOW Seeking JOBS
FROM SEN. HARDING
(By the Associated Negro Press)

(By the Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, Nov. 11.-What is the next
move on the political checkerboard
That is the question being asked by
the laymen everywhere. Naturally,
the faithful are looking to the East,
and the capitol, and the White House
for the proverbial political plums''
which form the menu that makes the
game worth while.
Immediately following the election.
when Col. Henry Lincoln Johnson,
Robert R. Church and Charles A. Cot
trill, who have been in charge of the
Chicago Bureau, were asked by the
Associated Negro Press for a state
ment for the public, and the following
was given:
"The overwhelming vote for the Re
publican party is a victory for un-
qualified Americanism and means
death to mob law and disinfranchise-
ment"
Therefore, definite program will
be mapped out in which the co-opera.
tion of all organizations throughout
the country will lie asked, looking to
establishing a federal law on lynch
ing, mob violence and bombing. Then.
a definite way will be worked out
through which the citizens throughout
the country will be guaranteed the
right of suffrage.
1t is stated on high authority that a
majority of the United States sena-
tors and large number of members
of the house have pledged their sup
port in behalf of measures of the kind
mentioned. With reference to 'Jim-
crow" cars, it is definitely known that
equal accommodations will be demand
ed, and that the railroads will be com
PEELED to provide Pullman accommo-
dations for interstate passengers.
In the matter of appointments there
is absolutely nothing definite yet.
-Four years ago." said one of the ma
tional leaders, "a number of us got
together and talked over the positions
we expected to go after as soon. as
Hughes was elected Our premature
efforts proved to he bad luck, and dur
ing this campaign nothing was said.
This much is known, however, what
ever openings are made will be truly
representative, and will not necessar-
lily follow along the established lines
of former days. The Register of the
Treasury, and Recorder oil. Deeds have
gone to the race for many years back,
with Assistant Attorney General, Au-
ditor for the Navy in the Treasury
Department, few ministers and col
lectors of Internal Revenue thrown in.
These will merely be a beginning this
time, according to expert opinion.
