Church TO REMAIN
Strong FACTOR in
negro RACE, AYERS
(The Associated Negro Press)

Washington, D. c., Dec. 80. - For
years to come the church will furnish
the majority of leaders of the Negro
race is the belief expressed by Dr.
Carter G. Woodson, in a new book
just published entitled "The History
of the Negro Church" While the
author sees in the record of the
church reasons for hope that the in
stitution will continue to figure in the
life of the Negro as a conspicuous
factor, yet he does not hesitate to
consider the faults and shortcomings
of the institution.

POTATOES LOOKING
GOOD. SAYS COUEY

Agricultural College, N. D. - The
potato crop in North Dakota is re-
markably free from disease this year,
is the report made by Worth G. Couey,
potato specialist of the North Dakota
Extension Division, who has just re-
turned from an inspection trip thru
the southeastern part of the state. He
was accompanied by Harry D. Long,
assistant in the pure seed division.
early potatoes were injured by the
drouth," says Mr.. Couey. "The vines
are in good shape and little disease is
apparent, but the tubers are set right
against the stem, which means as a
rule, crop of small potatoes. How
ever, new tubers are now setting on
some of the early fields, so a good
crop may yet be secured from them.
Late planted fields are looking excep-
tionally fine. The acreage in the
counties which I visited, Kidder, La
Meure, Sergeant and Dickey, shows a
slight increase over last year.

July IL. reads as follows:
Il can assure you it is a matter of
great qualification to me to find that the
loyal men of Ulster hold the same opin-
ion as ! do as to the English-speaking
people. 1t may interest YOU to know that
practically all the reputable newspapers
in the United States are now in thorough
approval of our condemnation of the acts
of Sim Fein srmpathizers in the United
States This has been brought about br
remarkable expression of opinion by
the American people in the form of show
ers of letters and telegrams to all con

the incident were about TO be transformed
into an issue. At all events it will ap-

else a very considerable influence on the

UNION PRINTERS
FIGHT OPEN SHOP
international Typographical Union See
retary Urges 44-IIOur Week
for Trade,

QUEBEC. Aug. s.. - The fight of the
International Typographical union for
the 44-hour week has brOadened into 81
battle against the open-shop. says Sec
annapolis in his annual report to its con-
vention opening here today.
The printers union. Mr.. Hays said, is
in the throeS of the most strenuous and
what promises to be a considerably
drawn out battle for the establishment
of printing office conditions to which it
is justly entitled by reason of an agree
ment which it made with employing
printers more than two years ago.
Il am of the opinion that had the
question of the 44-hour week been left
solely to the printing Office employers
and officers of printing trades unions
there would have been little. if any, diff
tculty in putting it into effect on May
1, 1921. However, nOn-uniOn employees
in other industries evidently determined
that were the 4Ahour week to be uni
versally established in the printing bust
ness without difficulty it would set an
example to workers in other industries
which would induce them to make simi-
lar demands. and would establish n
precedent hard to overcome.
1T was undoubtedly for this reason
that these nOn-uniOn employers started
publicity campaign against the idea of
shortening hours of labor in any indus
try and established boycott upon all
union printing offices agreeing to work
under 44-hour week conditions. 1t was
this threat of boycott that induced en-
ploying printers To start campaign in
opposition to the carrying out of the
agreement"
Mr. Hays declared he had mot the
least hesitancy in saying that this fight
will be won by the International Typo
graphical union"

SUPREME COUNCIL
OPENS IN PARIS
Upper Silesia Question to Be Taken Up
at Onee-AmbassadOr Harvey
In Attendance

PARIS. Aug. s. - The first session
of tine supreme council opened promptly
at 3 p. m. with all present who had
been expected to attend, including Am
bassador Harvey.
The Upper SiIesian question will be
Immediately taken under consideration.
The controversy over SIleSia arises from
the different interpretations by the al
lies and by Germany and Poland OF the
result of the plebiscite. The original
draft of the treaty with Germany gave
Upper Siliesia to Poland unconditiOnally.
In consequence of Germany's strong
protest, supported in the peace confer
ence by Mr.. Lloyd George. it was de-
cided to apply the principle of self-de-
terminati ton. and organize pleblsclte,
under the supervision of a commiSsion
on which were to be represented Great
Britain, France. Italy and the United
States The United States was never
represented because it did not enter the
treaty.
The commission was directed to take
a vote by townships and empowered to
draw a frontier between Germany and
Poland on the basis of the vote, but TAX
ing INFO account, so reads the treaty, the
wishes of the inhabitants. as shown by
the vote and the geographical and eco
nomic conditions of the region.
The whole controversy turns upon
the Interpretation of the phrase. Geo
graphical and economical conditions.
The vote was: For Germany. 7O4,a19;
for Poland, 471.523, The farming dis
tricts were largely for Germany the i'm
portant mining and manufacturing town
ships have a majority for Poland. The
Poles interpreted the result as giving
them virtually all of the country east of
the river Oder. Germany demands Upper
Siesia as a whole.
The commission. which under the
treaty could decide the question by a
majority vote. was unable to arrive at a
decision The French commissioner drew
the frontier line along the Oder, giving
Poland all the mining district Of 9O3
townships. of which 6T3 voted Polish and
230 German, and giving to Germany 526
townships. of which SOB voted German
and 23 Polish.
The British plan comedies to Poland
small portion of the mining district,
where the Poles are in a clear majority.
The Italian commissioner gives Poland
less than the French, but more than the
British.
The question is complicated by the
Polish insurrection in the disputed ter
ritOry.' Premier BRAND insists wish the
utmost firmnesS upon the broad justice
of the French governments position. He
affirms that it is question between Is or
20 cosmopolitan financiers on the one
side and the mass of Polish workers on
the other.
