Ford For President;
All Rumors Denied
Virginia Republicans Deny That
They Endorsed Henry Ford
For u. s. President.
(Asociatd Negro Press) }

(Asociatd Negro Press)
Richmond, Va, Aug. 1S-A recent
dispatch sent from this city stated
that the Negroes of Virginia had en-
dorsed Henry Ford for president. H.
H. Price, secretary of the colored re.
publican organization and president
OF the Richmond Business League,
denies the statement In letter to
Forward, the famous Jewish publ
cation. Mr.. Price writes:
my attention has been called to
an article which appeared in your is
sue of July 20, 1922, under the cap
ton: "In The Jewish World" in
reference to report from Richmond,
Va, that the Negroes of Virginia
have endorsed Henry Ford for Presi.
ocnt 1t is true that such report
appeared in a Richmon,, newspaper.
AS secretary of the coiored rnpub'i.
can organization in this State, wish
mond nor the Negroes of this State
nave endorsed Henry Ford for Presi
dent. 1t was simply an attempt OF
half a dozen Negroes of this city to
get a little cheap newspaper adver-
tising and political notice.
The overwhelming sentiment of the
Negroes is for an independent organ,
ization, and to cease worshipping po-
litical parties, and this sentiment is
making inroads into other sections of
the country. Least of all would the
Negroes of Virginia, nor of any other
State be so foolish as to endorse or
support any man for office who at:
tempts to gain his political aspira
tions by appealing to race prejudice.
Any report to the contrary is mis-
leading and should not be taken SER
iously."

(Associated Negro Press)

Pine Bluff, Ark, Aug. 18-The
forty-fifth annual session of the
Grand Lodge Knights of Pytbias, ju.
risdiction of Arkansas, was held at
Dranh Normal College here iast
week. Henry Avant was reelected
Grand Chancellor. Fred D. Morris,
who delivered an eloquent address
and rendered an excellent report of
his office, was reelected to the office
of Grand Keeper of Records and Seal
for the sixth consecutive time. Mr..
Theo. Bond of Madison was also re-
elected Grand Master of Exchequer,
but Mr.. N. w. Shelton, who has been
Grand Attorney for number OF
years was decisively defeated for that
Office by Mr.. ]. r. Booker, one OF
the youngest and most successful at
torneys in the southwest. Much ere
dit for the remarkable growth of the
Order in this state is attributed to
the business like methods and accu-
rate accounts of F. D. Morris, G. K.
R. s. Theo. Bond and Fred D. Morris
were elected Supreme Representa-
tives for the Grand jurisdiction of
Arkansas to the Supreme Lodge
which meets in New York, in 1923.
Arkansas Pythians i'm Law Suit
Much interest has centered about
the Pythians of Arkansas because an
effort was made by the Insurance
Commissioner several months ago to
place the order in the hands of Re-
ceivers, but the order won in the Cir
cult court of Pulaski County and the
case was appealed by the Commits
sioners to the Supreme Court of Ar
kansas, where it is now pending. The
suit was filed against the X. OF r.
because of the alleged disappearance
of records in the Office of the G.. X.
r. s. and the contributing of funds
to the Elaine riot prisoners, Two
months prior to the lawsuit the In
surance Commissioners had made an
exhaustive investigation of the office
and books Of the G. X. r. 8. snd
rendered very commendable report
with respect to this particular office.
It was then only after the report
made by the Commissioners that the
members who were dissatisfied with
certain officers carried the order in
court and endeavored to introduce
such evidence as nigh reflect on the
integrity of some officers of the order.
Morris To Serve Sixth Term
The jurisdiction of Arkansas is
the third largest jurisdiction in the
country, having more than nineteen
thousand members, with assets total
ling more than 100000 dollars.
More than a quarter of million dol
lars pass through the hands of the
G.. X. r. S., yearly and not once In
the past five years has 1t been shown
that there were any Irregularities IN
the conduct of this office. No other
Jurisdiction in this country has as one
of it's chief officers person who is
as young as Fred ID. Norris and 1t
will be good news to his classmates
and friends who were in Howard Uni
versity with him from 1907 to 1910
to know of his phenomenal success
in the business world.

GERMAN suPgRMAN soeEY

When we read of the wages paid to labor in Germany and compute them ff our dollars we feel that it is impossible for the American man ufacturer to compete with the German. That feeling is warranted in some cases. It is, however, a wholesome exercise for us to consider what con stitutes the cost of a finished article. This cost is made up, roughly speak ing of raw material. labor, interest on capital and distribution. For the raw material used in a large percen- tage of her products Germany de- bends on other nations and this ma terial she must purchase abroad in foreign. coinage. Try to sell German something for 5000 and see how that bulks up--to the proportions of his fortune-in marks and you will real ize how it is for German manufac- turer to finance the raw materials he thus draws from foreign sources.
 If he has to have financial assistance from abroad he pays very dearly for that accommodation Every one is aware of the high profit put on goods when they are sold to the near bank rupt. It is the same ir international trade. and the result is that raw ma terials are costing the Germans much more than manufacturers in the Unit ed States pay for similar commodities.

SANITARY TERMS EXPLAINED
 FOR LAYMES BY DEPARTMENT

Pointing out that an insecticide is not a dependable disinfectant and that there is a wide difference between an atiseptic and a deodorant. the United States de- partment of agriculture emphasizes the use of the right nreparation in disinfect- ing nremises. Sanitation is especially important in preventing losses from anil nal diseases. and along with attention to cleanliness. disinfectants are frequently of a contag gious disease. Here is con- densed information on the subject. pre- pared as 2 result of the department ex- perience in advising persons who n~>ln- derstand the purpose and correct use of disinfeciants
 The word "infectedr means contami- mated with or affected by disease gef>-s: ''disinfected" means freed of disease germs. A "disinfectant" is a product that destroys disease germs or renders them harmless. An "antiseptic" is a substance that prevents the development and growth of disease germs. but an an- tiseptic is not disinfectent unless it is capable of destroying disease germs in addition to preventing their growth.
 disinfeetant is not necessarily ar ''insecticide." for some powerful disin. feetants are relatively harmless for in- sects and the hest insecticides may be of little value as disinfectants.
 Formaldehyde is one of the most pow erful disinfectants known. but it is a yer, weak insecticide; and conversely. hydro cyanic acid is deadly for insects and a. forms of animal fife while it has littl, l power as germicide or disinfectant | is well 10 remember also that 'deedor ants" are not necessarily disiRfectants- one destroys oders, the other destroy germs.
 No single disinfectant is appropriate il 1 all cases. Select the proper substance apply literally. allow ample time for tn | disinfectant to do its work. and remem Der that success depends in large par upon the care and eXactness of the per
 son who prepares and applies the disia ! fectant.

AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS
VERY LOW TEMPERATUREs
 KILL GYPSY MOTH EGGS

Investigations carried on by the Unit ed States Department of Agriculture rel ative to the effect Of extremely low tenn peratures, on gipsy-moth eggs hzSs shown that when the thermometer reg isters from % degrees Fsrsnhsit to fs degrees. the eggs do not hatch uniess they are protected by snow or ice. Many localities that have these temperatures regularly have not infested. Maine and New Hampshire. except on the sea- coast. receive the greatest benefit from uon-hatch due to extreme cold. Central and northern Massachusetts also derive considerable benefit in certain regions Connecticut. Rhode Island. the southert and eastern nsrts of Massachusetts. and the coastal section of New Hampshire derive little. if any. benefit. ~r ever after the coldest winter nearly sli the eggs hatch. The advantage gained from
 nonhatch is offset to some extent by the 1 injury to parasites of the moth caused ; by cold weather.
 Ii is not supposed that any reliance
 can be placed. on costroi of the gipss moth by means of extreme cold since 1 temperature cannot he controlled. bui { investigators are interested in the ex-
 planstion as to why there has been only
 a slow increase Of the gipSy moth in

KEEN INTEREST SHOWN IN
 EDUCATIONAL FARM FILMS

Returns from a ouestionnaire on mo- tion pictures sent to some 5000 extension agents by the United States department of agriculture indicate that county agents and other extension workers in general are keeniy interested in educational films Of 9S2 agents reporting. S15 are in favor of using motion pictures in their work, 15 opposed to them, and 145 non-commit- tai
 About one-third of the agents reporting say they use motion pictures. and about oRe-half of those who use pictures have had ex9erience with portable projectors Only per cent. of those who use porta- b!e projectors have found them unsatis- factory.
 There is strong demand for more films on livestock subjects. club work. soil inn provement, and co-operative marketing.
 Many agents ask for more fun" or more human interest" in educational films and there is considerable complaint of slow distribution. This last objection the department hopes will be. met event, uaily by the establishment of adequate state distributing centers.

BETTER-sIREs-BE STOCK

There Is every reason to believe that the replacement of scrub and grade sires by pure breds is on the increase Reports received by the United Statel Department of Agriculture from county agents in various p2rts of the country show that inc Better Sires-Bettel Stock" movement Is having a notice, able effect
 The cost of 2 good registered bull is so small now that t is a mystery why any farmer will keep anything else, Many records have been kept during the last few years te prove out the 7csuaI value of pure-bred bull In dollars and cents.
 Some of these actual figures were oh- 1 tained recently hv the dsnsrtmsnt oi agriculture through an inquiry sent oui 10 more than 800 farmers throughout the United States. These men gave il as their opinion that in all kinds of farm | stock pure breds have an earning power more than A per cent better than com mon stock.

POWER OF TIE EYES

The existence of a long suspected but hitherto untested power of the human eye appears to have been prov ed by an instrument invented by pr. Charles Russ, in which an inanlmate object is made to move by force or ray from the eye to the observer Writing in the London Lancet, Dr. Russ says "The fact that the direct gaze or vision of one person soon becomes intolerable to another per son suggested to me that there might be a ray of radiation issuing from the human eye" To test this theory he has devised an instrument which can be set in motion by the mere impact of human vision.
