(By The Associated Negro Press)

(By The Associated Negro Press)
Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 22.-The Chica-
go Denfender, which has the largest
circulation of any of the newspapers
throughout the country, has joined
the scores of other newspapers
throughout the country, in depicting
the present crisis and serious state
of political affairs. The last issue
carries a most significant cartoon, un-
der the title of Bounced Again" The
picture depicts President Harding
riding away on the G. o. P. elephant
waving his hand, saying $50 long
Nose, may see you later" "Mose,'
representing the colored voter, has
fallen PROSTATE in the dust, while a
hand full of campaign promises and
prediction pledges lay in the road
all about him. This cartoon is receiv.
ing universal comment.
There is one outstanding feature in
the present political catastrophe. 1t
is this: None of the members of the
Presidents cabinet, members of the
United States senate, Republican, nor
members of congress, Republican, have
spoken a single word, publicly, against
the trend of the time There is no
need of saddling all the protests on
the shoulders of the President. He
is the Ike man. said one one well in
formed citizens to the Associated Ne
gro Press, "but every Republican ev.
erywhere is bound up in the policy
until he declares himself"
In the meantime, independent or
ganization movements are springine
up, and continuing to thrive, like
mushrooms in a shady valley.

(By The Associated Negro Press)

(By The Associated Negro Press
Chicago, Sept, 22.-Leaders in
church, politics, welfare work and
business men are being invited to ac-
cept membership in the National Up

tive of suppressing the Invisible EN-
pire" of the Ku Klux Klan.
Edward F. Dunno, former governor,
is chairman of the council, which has
established offices at 10S South La
Sale street. With the financial and
moral support of the best citizenry in
the state, members say, legislation
banishing the Klan can be obtained,
as it was in the South after its reign
Of terror during the days of civil war
reconstruction.
1t is the intention to organize Ma
tional Unity council committees in
every community and county where
the Klan has already established a
foothold and to point out the danger
Of the secret order by patriotic dem
onstrations. Comfy, rather than en-
nifty, between races, religious groups
and political parties will be encour-

equipment of the turglar-masks and

COTTON ADVANCES
$4,000 Per BALE ON
new ORLEANS MARKET
(By The Associated Negro Press)

(By The Associated Negro Press)
New Orleans, La, Sept. 22- The
price of cotton moved over a range
of nearly cents a pound, to 500 a
bale this week, deducting fluctua
tions being violent in the extreme on
several sessions and held in check
only by the rules of the exchange lin
iting price changes to 200 points in
any one session.
Carried Over 400 Points
On Wednesday all months bulged
the full 200 points on all the first
sales on the opening call, something
never before witnessed. At the high
est levels of the week, prices we're 400
points over last weeks close and at
the lowest they were unchanged to Is
points up, compared with the same
close. The range carried the market
over 385 to 400 points.
October traded as high as 21.49 and
May as high as 2110. On the close
October stood at POPS and May at
1915, the near months being much
stronger than the distant in the. last
couple of sessions of the week. The
close showed net gains of 1876 to 276
POINTS on tie list. In the spot depart

the net result, closing at POPS against

Liverpool Advances Stimulate
In the early session of last week
the tendency of Liverpool to make
sensational advances was the chief
stimulating Influence, but later
on the heavy rains in Texas and
the appearance of a hurricane in trop-
ical waters were the main factors.
The storm in Texas had marked eff
feet on the values because it followed
several days of local rains, the effect
of which was held to be disastrous be-
cause of the greater quantity of open

COL. ROBT. 7. KERLIN
WILL CONTINUE fight
FOR HUMAN rights
(By The Associated Negro Press)

(By The Associated Negro Press)
Lexington, Va, Sept 22-Col. Robt
T. Kerlin, former professor Of English,
Virginia Military Institute, who was
summarily dismissed by the Board of
Governors, for exercising his consti-
tutional right of freedom of speech,
has issued an exclusive statement for
the Associated Negro Press. In his
statement Col. Kerlin praises the news
papers for their generous response of
service and good will He declares
that the editorial expression from our
newspapers "go to my heart to cheer
and stresgthen it,"
Col Kerlin declares that he was
never happier, and that instead of
being defeated l have only begun to
fight" and he will continue to labor
for justice in the south.
Never was there a more instantan-
eous response to any act of service
than your papers have given to mine,
simple as it was. That response has
been not only instantaneous and gen.
erous, but enthusiastic and eloquent
in expressions of gratitude and praise.
1t makes me wonder what your press
would do were some real hero to appear
and do something orally great have
before me perhaps twenty editorials
from your press that would do credit
to any press on this globe. They go to
my heart to cheer and strengthen it,
and they touch it to softness too.
What man cannot put force into his
blows in a righteous and humane cause
when he is SO cheered on, when so
many grateful eyes are turned upon
him, when so many hopes are fixed
upon him?
Now, as for myself and my plans
Never was l happier or more elated
though put out of position and home,
with nothing assured as to the future.
My moral victory is of the first order
And there is really no other kind of
victory in this world. All else is de-
lusion. God and one good, brave man
(though l don't pretend to be more
than moderately good and brave) are
always victors, whatever the appear
ances. Henceforth my confidence in
God will be absolute. I have learned
how to trust him and be triumphant.
Prom this you will perceive that
instead of being defeated l have only
begun to fight. And fight, / will, with
that one weapon 1 can wield-my pen
which is mightier than the swords
of all the tyrants who ever sought to
throttle freedom and enslave mems
minds. The fighting henceforth will
be glorious. How many valient souls
have rallied to mel Men and women.
the elect of earth, of every walk and
calling in life, in every part of the
land, have risen up and assured me
of their admiration, support, and loy-
atty. Old friends and new and abso-
lutte strangers have flooded me with
messages that have warmed my heart
and nerved my soul. OF course, there
fore, you know my plan. 1t is to re-
main here in the south, If can secure
maintenance here for my family, and
fight the good fight on the field
where it was begun and where the
victory must be. There Is nothing
important but this.
I cannot close without saying that
the Associated Negro Press has done
splendid piece of news distributing
and that Mr.. Detweiler has rendered
by his story a distinct service to the
country"

BAPTISTS WON WARM
SPOT IN HEARTS Of
CHICAGO CITIZENS
(By The Associated Negro Press)

(by Inc ASSOcldleu negro HTeSS)
Chicago, Ill. Sept 22-The recent
Baptist National Convention has left
more than a good impression on the
city of Chicago. This conclusion can
be reached by stopping long enough
to listen to the expression of praises
pronounced by the average citizen
since the big meeting passed into
history. Impressive in it's bulk it's
proceedings were also marked by
dignity of general bearing that was
decidedly inspiring in all the aspects
of it's proceedings and in the character
of the program laid down in the con-
clusions of it's deliberations.
There were not few dramatic NOM
ents reached during the ten-day ses-
sions. There was highly dramatic
incident presented at the very open
ing of the convention. 1t came at the
close of President E. G.. Morris an
nual address. The adress was a re-
view of the races relations to the coun-
try and outlined teh work the Ma
tional Baptist Convention must do to
secure amity and to improve the re-
ligious and economic position of the
Negro in America. At the close of
the address, which had held the large
audience spellbound for longer than
one hour and half, with uplifted
hands DR.. Morris pronounced; 81
give myself into your keeping, pray
ing that the Negro will be the instru-
ment which will bring men back to
God For God is all righteousness and
it is by Righteousness and faith that
men will find freedom and see God"
When the cheering had subsidized
DR.. w. M. Taylor took the center of
the stage and delivered an eloquent
panegyric on the presidents address
and the moved that the rules be sus-
pended and DR.. Morris reelected the
chief executive of the organization by
acclamation The rules were suspend
ed and amid cheers and sustained
shouting, the president was reelected.
In quick succession DR.. w. G. Parks
was elected vice president at large
and Prof. B. R. Hudson of Selma, Ala,
was elected secretary. 1t was the
seventeenth time that Prof Hudson
has been chosen as secretary of the
organization. DR.. Morris election
marked the twenty-eighth time he
had been called upon to direct the
destinies of what is known as the
largest body of Baptists in the world.
DR.. A. J. Stokes was elected treas
urer, Dr.. E. Arlington, Wilson, Tex,
R. H. Mcdonald, Missouri, ]. H. Nab
ritt, Georgia, T. o. Fuller, assistant
secretaries; DR.. c. H. Parrish, Kansas,
was chosen statistician, DR.. E. D.
Pierson, Texas, auditor, DR.. ]. D.
Crenshaw, Tennessee, editor the Ma
tional Baptist Voice; E. M. Lawrence,
business manager and DR.. Chas. Stew
art, Illinois, general missionary.
The welcome provided by Chicago
was whole-hearted, spontaneous and
fine. DIR. L. K. Williams, famous pas
tor of Oliyet and the idol of Chicago,
ably assisted by Reverends, Branham,
Hawkins and the loyal committee,
handled all arrangements with con-
sumate ease. The immense Eighth
Regiment Armory was crowded from
morning till night with Baptist and
non Baptists and the mere mention of
DR.. Williams name was the signal for
heartfelt cheering. His hold on the
public is marvellous.
