New York Age, tells of the adoption
of resolutions by that great body fa-

racial equality and more becoming

nations and races of the world
He writes thus:
"The eighth and greatest session Of

Counting Out Of Negro in st.
Louis Be Probed.

st. Louis, No.. Nov. 25.-The grand
jury investigation of alleged frauds
in the primary election on August 8
last. which has already resulted in
the indictment of twelve precinct Of
ficials, was resumed yesterday after
noon, when the jurors ordered the
opening of the ballot boxes in eight
additional precincts, in which COM
plants of illegal transactions were
made. The first ballot box to be
opened was that of the Twelfth Pre-
cinct of the Seventeenth Ward.
1t is believed that the investiga-
tion of this precinct was caused by
complaints made by Rev. r. f. ABB
bott. pastor of Union Memorial
Church (colored), who served as a
Republican judge of election in the
precinct polling place on the day of
the primary election and who stated
that he refused to sign his name to
the return sheet because of alleged
Illegal actions on the part of other
precinct officials. Abbot meintained
that Ernest Patillo. a Negro, who OPP
posed Frank Slater for Republican
committeeman, was counted out" on
election day and that Slater, whose
name did not appear on the ballot.
was elected to the office Illegally.
Rev. Abbott was one of the wit
nesses who appeared before the grand
jury, before the recount of the votes
cast in the precinct was begun. Upon
the fact of the official returns from
precinct, Patplo received 20 votes, as
against so for Slater.

embodying the principles of World
Brotherhood, with special reference to
International relationships:
81. We affirm an unshaEen belief
in the solidarity Of human race, and
further affirm our conviction that
any conception of racial or national
integrity that ignores this basic fact
imperils the security of the world.
"2. We record our appreciation of
every movement that makes for a
deep ending sense of mutual indeb-
tedness and obligation among the ma
tons, and likewise deplore every ac-
tion that makes for misunderstand-
y. oSora We attest est our rSenso1fii Confidence in

clple of the common good is more
cohesive than mere similarity in GUS
toms. habits and manners.
Determination Engenders bitterness.
awe maintain that any national or
International policy that seems to dis
criminate in the treatment of nations
and races engenders bitterness and is
subversive to the best interests of
kind and inimical to the peace of the
world.
"5. We believe that all national or
International problems are solvable
and all international difficulties ad-
Unstable IL dealt with in spirit of
dignified tolerance. noble conciliation
and Christian forbearance, and that
Christian aitruIsm must take the place
of enlightened self interest in the set
tlement of all international conten-
tions.
IS. We record our conviction that
brotherhood must be vitalized so as to
have a direct relation to the Kingdom
of God. A passion for righteousness Is
the moral minimum with which inter-
national relations can be safeguarded.
World brotherhood requires an inter-
national onsSesssness; This can only
be acquired through the unlimited ex-
pension of our own personality. The
spacious world mind can come only
through fellowship with Him who is
at once Son of God and son of man.
"7We call the nations to heed the
warning given by the present world
chaos and to deliberately refrain
from taking any provocative national
action that would wound national hon
or discount national prestige, or be of
such character as to create SUSPECT
Gus, resentment or revenge.
49, Finally, we assert our unalter-
able conviction that nothing in this
world is settled until IL is settled right
We hold that spiritual sanctions must
have place in life and that moral
mandates must increasingly exercise
their power in controlling the con-
duct of mankind With unfaltering
trust and high resolve, we pledge our
allegiance to these principles and ded-
icate our lives to their speedy' reali-
zation throughout all the EARTH"
In commenting. upon the. adoption

for Democracy. The greater task OF
making Democracy safe for the world
remains. Democracy is at the cross
