BUILDING COST NOT PAST
POCKETBOOK, IS CLAIM

A well-known building authority
states that the average man Is better
able TO build and own a homo today
than five years ago. Money values"
he says, "have been batted about. and
the condition has been aggravated by
ill-adyised buying by workers with
suddenly acquired wage increases.
These wage increases have gone
largely into the purchase OF luxuries.
resulting in a shortage OF necessities.
The reaction. however. has started
in. Through all this period OF extrav-
agancc and recklessness the solid.
substantial element OF our people
have kept their heads. They have
saved their money. Prices are on a
downward trend and will reach a nor

spite OF the high cost OF labor and
materials prices can be maintained at
fairly reasonable level. Homes can
be built now and the banks are will

RACIAL SOLIDARITY NECESSARY
TO ADVANCE.

New York, Oct. 29.-The question of
racial solidarity, so often approached
in derision by our Caucasian brother
when referring to us, is one that, fortu-
nately, our people are beginning to
solve. The evolution, however, is pro-
ceeding painfully slow, and when the
time does arrive, that the process will
have been completed, an epoch will be
marked in our advancement.
Racial solidarity, however, would be
greatly promoted by the participation
of a great number of us in communi-
ty enterprise that has for its object the
promotion of our physical and finan-
cial yet recreational, well-being. In Of
fering to our people an opportunity OF
linking up with the Harlem Communi-
ty Enterprises Corporation. 1855 7th
Avenue, in their efforts to build for
this community casino, roof garden
and general market and stores, con-
crete test of how far we have gone In
racial solidarity is offered
Race leaders, editors, ministers,
everywhere increasingly urge us to
closer cooperation and coordination.
Again and again we are advised of the
urgent necessity of supporting race
business in order to press on in the
terrific struggle to ascend. With this
in mind, the few remaining shares OF
stock of this corporation that are yet
to be disposed of should be rapidly
taken up in order that another for
ward step in the races advancement
may begin Immediately. The prospect
of gain on such an investment is said
to be excellent "a potent factor); yet
that building, once erected, will stand
forever as a monument of our solidar-
ity. Have we yet learned1

South, David T. Howard, IL, today

Beginning on a legacy of $150, left

largest of its kind in the city, and fin
ancial institutions readily make loans
on his name.

The Negro today, Howard said,
wants better justice in courts, better
accommodations on railroad trains,
and more schools for his children.
"Toom any silk shirts and too much
good time" he said, were the causes
of racial unrest.

HAITIAN HORRORS CONFIRMED

island republic for blood-stained profit.
Charges in the press and by individ-
uals of lesser rank might be cynically
ignored. But when a senator of the
United States and candidate for the
presidency courageously and straight
forwardly took them up, the admins
tration had to pay attention. 1t found
itself literally "smoked out" and now
sees that it has no possible recourse
but confession of the substantial truth
of the whole damning Indictment.
The nation, in the name of human
ity, owes an immeasurable debt OF
gratitude to Senator Harding for his
action in this matter. He has, above
all other influences, compelled the Will
son administration to call a halt upon
its ''indiscriminate killing of natives"
in Haiti. He has, we may trust,
saved Haiti from further machlne-gun
massacres and from the abhorent
slavery of the corvee. He has, too,
given a>significant earnest of the man
ner in which, when he becomes Pres
ident, he will lift the lid" from all
the dark and noisome pits of Will
sonian despotism, usurpation and
crime.-Harvey's Weekly.

EUROPEAN FINANCIERS
HAVE EYES ON LIBERIA.
Efforts Are Being Made, it is Seriously
Alleged, to Interest Strong Finan-
ciaI Groups in Valuable Con-
cessions in African Re-
public.

London, Oct. 2S.-An effort to inter-
est some great European financial
groups in valuable concessions In Ii
IBERIA is now being made here, accord
ing to information the World CORE
spondent obtained in financial quar-
ters here. If these plans crystalline it
is believed here that these interests
will have secured a position calculated
to seriously curtail American enter
prises in Liberia.
The United States government has
been aware for some time of the eff
forts being made by British and other
foreign interests to extend greatly
their holdings in the African republic,
over which the United States has exer-
cised a moral sponsorship. In the At
rican World recently there have been
published quotations from the CONNER
cial Bulletin of Monrovia Capital of
Liberia) which severely criticize the
United States. The African World
says:
"The Commercial Bulletin charges
the Americans with callousness and po-
litical cynicism. Does this description
apply solely to certain American Of
ficials who recently have caused so
much unpleasantness and unnecessary
ANNOYANCE in Monrovia? If so, the
remedy lies with Washington. There
is a strong element for an independent
Liberia. VIII President King deal
with the situation?"
State Department Unaware Of LiberIan
Discomfort. ,
Officials of the State Department at
washington have announced that no
information has been received here OF
the presence in London of Liberians
seeking to interest European financial
groups In that country.
1t is also stated that no advices
have reached the department of the re-
MORT that American officials in Mon
royia have antagonized Liberians and
that as a result an effort Is being
made to induce European competition
AGAINST American interests.

~ RACTfCALLY indiscriminate XIII
ing OF natives has gone on for
= some time. The most
startling thing of the kind that has
ever taken place in the Marine Corps,
by which the commandant of that
CORDS was shocked beyond express
sion." That is the devils work that
the Wilson administration, under the
malign direction of a professional TO-
menter OF revolutions, has for years
been doing in the theoretically inde-
pendent neighbor Republic of Haiti.
That is the sort of thing which gives
an organ of the land of Valmaseda
and weyler fair opportunity to re-
proach the Wilson administration for
proceeding in Spanish America as the
kaiser proceeded in Europe"
And that is the sort of thing which
insnires Josephus Daniels unctuously
10 proclaim that the men who did it
..are worthy comrades of those ma
rines who won imperishable glory in
France!"
Sir Josephus and the Feather Dus-
ter maverick could affect to scout and
scorn the damning charges when they
were taken up by Senator Harding;
denying them as airily as the Feather
Duster tried to deny, saying that he
had himself written Haiti's constitu-
ton, which was imposed upon that
republic at the points of American
bayonets. Further denial is now i'm
possible. General Barnett, the late
commandant of the marines, confirms
their truth, in the words which we
have quoted. In our review of Mr.
Johnson's statements, we said that he
reported the slaughter of three thou
sand Haitians and the death of
score of American marines, ana also
the establishment of corvee system
of compulsory labor. General Barnett
reports that approximately" 3,2oo
Haitiaps were killed, together with one
American marine officer and twelve
enlisted men, and orders that the
corvee systematic existence Oh which
he thus admits-be abolished.
And some of the records of this
deviItry, now that they are asked for'
have disappeared" while others are
officially withheld"
1t is impossible for the Wilson ad-
ministration to escape direct and full
responsibility for these things which
so-n one of the most disgracefui
,bonters in American history. Its con-
snicuous officials, Josephus Danieis
and Feather Duster Roosevelt either
did or did not know of them all along
To +hev did know of them, nothing
more need be said. The blood OF mas
sacred Haitians is on their hands.
tbev did not know, why did they not!
What moral or legal right have they
to remain ignorant of what their di-
rect agents are doing?
1t is impossible, also, to avoid the
conclusion that had it not been Tor

tiles would have continued and the ad-
ministration would have persisted Ill
