AFRICAN TROOPS
ON RHINE BROUGHT
TO U. S. ATTENTION
Rep Britten to Urge
Recall of BarbarOus
French COlOnials.

Aiming at the removal Of all
French Colonial troops in the oc-
cupied area of Germany, Congress
man Fred A. Britten, of Chicago,
will today introduce a resolution in
the House calling upon President
Wilson to communicate with the
President of France and the Secre-
tayy of the league of nations at
Geneva, Switzerland, demanding
such action in the interest of fu-
ture peace and humanity"
Thousands of citizens, according
to Britten. have petitioned the
President and Congress to indicate
to Americas allies in the world war
that the cause Of justice and hu-
manity is not being promoted by
the rentention of the French colored
troops in the occupied area Of Ger
many.
Backed by Citizens.
+ Il am accompanying my resolu-
tion with some 10000 signatures or
American citizens, as well as a six
teen-page booklet, entitled "Colored
Frenchmen on the Rhine-an appeal
of white women to American wom-
anhood." This booklet, published by.
the New Times Of Chicago, recites
many cases of murder. assault, rob-
berry and maltreatment of old women
as well as young girls, by French
Colonial troops in the Rhineland.
u cannot believe that the civil
ICED nations of the world will long
countenance the retention Of semi
civilized African troops in the
Rhineland of Germany, when re-
peated protests, not only from the
women Of the world, but Of high
ranking British and French authori-
ties, are outspOken against this pro-
Cedure because Of the brutalities
that are daily being committed
against old women as well as de-
fenseless young women and girls.
French Hatred Seen.
When l was in France last year,
l was told that the retention Of
these troops in the occupied area
had little or no military value, but
that as a means of demonstrating
the French hatred of the Germans,
and as a further means Of impress
ing humiliation upon their defeated
rivals, the African troops are in
tended to show the supreme con-
tempt and disgust with which ev-
erything German is held in France,
and 1 frankly can see no other rea-
son for their being placed in prac-
tical military control of Christian
white men, women and children.
The resolution will be referred to
the Committee on Foreign Affairs
of the House from which it will be
Immediately referred to the Secre-
tary of State for an opinion.

RADCLIFFE Sees
CHINESE BIBLE AS
TRIUMPH OF 1920
Described as Milestone in
Christian Progress in
Review of Year.

THE League of Nations and the
League of Churches have both fall
en- down, but Christianity has prog
ressed," according to DR.. Wallace
Radcliffe, pastor of the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church, rem
dering his resume of the year at
yesterday mornings service.
Presenting-th the contrasts and con-
guests of 1920, DR.. Radcliffe told of
the recrudescense of spiritism and
liberal thinking.
Speaking of the worlds happen
ings, he told of "the carving of Tur-
key" the consistency of Greece, and
the Americans watch on the Rhine.
Woman's vote rivals the Wall Street
bomb in loud explosion and shatter-
ing results. The Pilgrim Tercen-
tenary was CELEBRATED with a crime
wave both appalling and threaten
ing. A street car conductor has re-
ceived the Nobel prize and a boy Of
twelve becme the chess champion of
the world"
Atrial travel has reached its
highest speed, and the labor de-
mand is ambitious for the same
speed and elevation. The slaugh-
ter of the innocents in Asia is a
remarkable benevolence, making
the world safe for generosity.
The greatest attainment of the
year, however, a milestone in Chris
tian progress, is the Chinese Bible,
which has made possible the propa-
cation of the teachings of Christ.
This book is readable by the great
est majority of the Orientals, and
has standardized their language,
nation. and life. In it there are con-
tanned but 3S characters, thus revo-
Iutionizing the hitherto difficult
language of the Chinese.
A tribute to 105 persons, most
celebrated in statescraft, military
life, law, medicine, science, art
music, journalism. education, fl
nance, philanthropy, and religion
concluded the service.

toned unusual business activity prevailing high prices
for both goods and labor that careless in regard to &
quality service which rendered and exavagant with the
money which earned easily AS consequence of this the
period of depression through which passing has been
trying indeed, to both business and laborers.
But time enough has elapsed that may begin to
line upon the real situation and to take account of stock
The years must perforce bring with them conditions
differing radically rom those of the past few years We
therefore learn to adapt ourselves to the changing conditions and
cheerfuy face the future with confidence because have
lost confidence in the great and glorious country which
made possible by the original Declaration of Independence
Therefore upon this Independence Day let declare

When you know the cause of a di-

This is particularly true of headache.
Headache often results from consti-
