GENERAL WOOD IS
INjTGTRdTfON

In his usually able aud straightfor-
ward manner. striking ut the heart of
tho question, Gen. Leonard Wood held
the attention of the Filipinos closely
in his address upon being inaugursted
governor general OF the archipelago.
Little doubt is expressed That his
views ss set forth TO the Islanders

Harding, Tho general mad" u worry
plain that he docs not think tina, a
stable government has been cr,ab-
iished there. lie tells the Flltpinos
that they must help and that tho
matter IA in their hands.
Every inquiry made IN recent
months reveals that the Filipinos are
not yet ready for stable government.
They can make themselves ready if
they are $50 inclined. but if they are
actuated by no higher purpose than to
get control of the offices they will wait
n long while before being granted in

Thanksgiving Day.
At Home. Alone.
To the Editor of The Chicftain:
Yesterday morning l noticed that
w. II. i. had a very nice article in
the Chicftain. boosting East Pueblo.
and Mr.. Parks, and Park Church, and
the new babies and "A few other
things. Now the first thought that
entered my head was | wonder II he
got paid for writing that. and then |
noticed that Parks begins with i. |
also noticed that in recounting tho
various suburbs of East Pueblo, he
omitted the Mesa junction entirely.
Never even gave MS an honorable
mention. and that made me pretty
hot under the collar because live on
the South side not far from the june
tion. and am an enthusiastic booster.
However. up to date. | do not see that
! have done much good. SO ! am GO
ing to change my tactics. and instead
of talking TIL I'm honrsc, III sit down
and write. The pen Is mighticr than
the sword" and very much easier.
Now the principal member OF our
publicity board. is very busy mnu.
He pulls teeth. and tends TO the
mouths of the public In general. and
by this time | expect he has "gobblcd
so much gobbler that he cant even
gobble''. so l am taking It upon my
self to write n few words about the
Mesa Junction. tho South Side and
some other things. Yesterday morn
ing I thought the reason w. II. +.
had so carclcssly overlooked US. might
be that VIC had no name, merely being
called the Junction. and | thought
that at the next meeting OF our South
Side Association | would suggest that
we give our city name worthy OF
our city. No wonder we aren't oven
given standing room among such
noted suburbs as Pueblo. Ecssemcr.
Minncaua Heights. etc, and 40 on.
Well MS was saying. o,ir next ''pencc
conference" will be held a week from
Tuesday, Mt o'clock y. M. at the
Central High school. and | sure hope
you will all he there. and I hop" we
will all agree that we ought to have
n name: Even the new babies on tho
East side arc probably named by now.
| don't know whether there are any
new babies on the South Side. or not.

AFRO. AMERICAN
PROGRESSIVE ASSOCIATION
PLANS MUCH FOR RACE

1t is apparent from a plan which is
being worked out by the Afro-American
Progressive Association of this city
that the question of national leader
of the race is being put right square up
to the American negroes. Also a ma
tional headquarters to be built for and
by the race as a whole.
This plan has never been attempted
before by the race. Those favoring
the plan argue that small member
ship fee from the probable fourteen
million of the race would put them in
possession of two hundred thousand
dollar national home and the race al
large would not know how it all hap
pened
Those backing the movement point
with pride to the Association tempor
airy headquarters in this city. They
are planning a social centre building
here as a part of their national plan.
