TO COIOIsED AMERICA.

(By the National Equal Rights Leag-
ue
TO Comrades Of the National Equal
Rights League Of the U. S. A. and
az Other Co!ored Americans:
Ever since the League, appearing
at the Judiciary Committee Hearings
Of both the U. S. Senate and u. ;,
House of Representatives assisted tn
securing the favorable tntrOdaC, ion
into the House of the Dyer Anti-Lynrh
ing Bill at the former session of Goa
gross, the National Equal Rights
League has been eXcrting pressure up
on congressman and Presidents to
secure it's passage. The League en-
phaSizcd this as Il demand Of the Col
ored voters in the late national elect
ions. 1t even went SO far as TO appeal
to President Harding to avoid the
chance that his message for an invas
tigating commission might peopardizc
this positive remedial legislation.
World now comes, chiefly through
the Associated Negro Press Associat-
ion, that this Dyer Bill may soon be
reported favOrably I'M the House.
Hence the League appeals to every
member and to all Colored American
citizens to write to their Congressman
and also to tho Republican House
Leader, Rep. Mondell, and the Speak
er Of the House, Rep, Gillette, urging
the speeding up Of a report from the
from the Judiciary Committee on the
Dyer Bill and its prompt passage. DO
this at once.
The League also urges all to be.
ready when It is reported out, to
send a telegram to Congress, and i.
urges every kind and sort Of race or
ganization to do so, and especially
every church.
The League advises that the Sun
day following the favorable report Of
the Dyer Bill he made tho Anti-Lynch
Ing Sunday and that there DO a ten
minute prayer service for passage of
tho Bill, and u resolution sent by the
pastor and church clerk.
Write now. be ready to telegraph.
Watch for tho report and then let us
have n universal Anti-Lynching Sun
day.

ticket holders through. Inspector

down considerably.
Victory in the seventh game means
much to the winner. The team that

Tired and worn from six days of hard
work which has gotten them no place, the
Giants and Yankees looked upon today S
battle the one that will decide it one
way or the other.
The bleacher fans. with nothing to do
but voice their sentiments while wait
ing for hostilities to begin. razzed each
other. The fans pelted each other with
wadded up newspapers. Special police
men were pOwerless to stop the demon
Al -
part.
The big crowd gave the Giants 4 warm

REQUEST MACS
Board cf Works Member Re-

Blocked.

Because property owners did not heed
the wishes of the board Of public works
sometime ago the board was not disposed
today to give much attention to a request
Of Robert r. Sloan, president of the
Southeastern Improvement association,
that bad crossings over the street car
tracks in Shelby street be repaired.
Recalling that the property owners
twice have blocked resurfacing of Shelby
street through remonstrances Mark IL
Miller. president of the board remarked .
personally 1 would not favor wasting
a nenny on the street ear pavement IN
Shelby street until Shelby street is re-
surfaced
Mr.. Sloan asked that if it is impOssi-
bIe TO make the Indianapolis Street Rail
way Company repair all the pavement
between its Shelby street tracks it at
least be required to eliminate the bumps
which exist at street crossings and II the
city cannot make the street car company
10 this that the city repair the crossings
itself He also asked if the board in
tended to require the street railway com
pany to rcsurface between its tracks in
Virginia avenue. now that the property
owners have star:,: paying for resur-
facing the rest of ih'- street Mr.. Miller
replied that in the second case the city
contends that the company must pay for
both resurfacing and original pavement,
but that the question viii have to be

Wallace Says
Depression on
Farms Is OCeT
Secretary of Agriculture Pre-
diets Better Times Ahead in
Rural Communities.

CHICAGO. Oct 1.-THE worst OF the
depression which has seriously affected
farmers throughout the country is over,
according to Henry c. Wallace, Secretary
OF Agriculture. Secretary Wallace made
this prophecy today in an address be-
fore the convention Of the National I'm
plement and Vehicle Association here.
The Department of Agriculture has a
strong sympathetic interest In every eff
fort Of implement deaiers to better the
products which have enabled American
farmers to increase their production
three to five times more than the farm
Of the old world" the Secretary said.
implement dealers are in financial
straits such as they have never passed
through, but dependent as you are upon
the farmer, who is your largest purchaser
it is inevitable You should share with
him his periods Of adversity as well as
his periods of prosperity.
From observations made by investiga-
tors from my department, in my opinion,
the worst Of the present depression is
over
