Paris, Nov. CRUSADER Service)
The proposal to permit colored men
to officer white French regiments is
meeting with opposition here on the
part of those French who "curry
favor" with the United States and
profess Frances need of keeping
within the good graces of the pre-
JUDGED white population of America
by adopting in some degree the An
glo-Saxon attitude toward the COL
ored race. A bitter discussion is
raging as result Of this opposition,
and Deputy Diagne, high commits
sioner for the French colonial en-
pire, a Senegalese, has entered the
ring demanding whether France in
tended to use the colored troops for
her protection in times Of national
danger and then discriminate against
them after the danger had been safe
ly weathered by their brave hearts
and unstinted sacrifices. - d
Deputy Diagne warns the French
people that such a policy could only
lead to disaster as the African was
not the person to give his loyalty to
any flag that did not return that 10y
atty by full protection and absolute
equality of treatment in timess of
peace. The African, he said, has
fought for France because he loves
the principles for which France has
heretofore stood in the face Of the
bitter opposition and insulting slurs
Of the Anglo Saxon word who saw
in her attitude Of business toward the
colored man a "love for niggers''
which the Anglo Saxon world Of
England and America resented.
In France colored and whites mix
freely, frequently intermarry and
any job is open to colored men with
perfect equality. This is, as M.
Diagne points out, due to the attitude
Of the French people. Therefore, he
asks, why should colored men 8 be

LAST WORD TO CoLoRED
VOTERS ON DYER BILL
FROM J. w. JOHNSON

The National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People, 70
Fifth avenue, New York, today made
public final prediction statement
from its secretary, James Weldon
johnson, who has led in the fight to
put the Dyer bill through the House
of representatives and is fighting for
it's final enactment in the Senate.
The statement is as follows:
"For the first time in a general
countrywide election colored voters
have a fundamental issue involving
manhood rights on which they can
make themselves felt. in behalf of
the Dyer anti-lynching bill which
they can use as an acid test on every
candidate who solicits their votes.
In this there is not and need be no
petty or partisan politics: Colored
voters are simply undertaking to d.
vide the men seeking office on the
basis Of their stand in this matter of
federal action against the lyncher.
"The opportunity is the greatest
that has come to colored voters since
the civil rights bill, and is perhaps
even greater than the civil rights bill,
for in those days, colored people were
neither so numerous nor so we'll able
to act together as they are now.
Nor were they then a deciding vot-
ing block as they are now in some
Northern states, where their votes
count and are counted -.
"The opportunity afforded is for
colored voters to show not only that
they understand the issue at stake
but that they know how to exercise
plain, common political sense. So
doing they can gain the respect, en-
force the respect, of political power
in the United States in a way that
has never before been possible.
"Colored voters are opposing and
voting against such men as are seek
ing reelection, who voted against
the Dyer anti-lynching bill in the
House of representatives. In the
case of those men who voted against
1.-THE Republicans and the Northern
Democrats the defense they make is
that they did not believe the Dyer
bill to be constitutional. L INT
"This defense the colored voters
set in the balance against the weight
Of legal authority which declares the
bill to be constitutional. Such legal
authority includes the committee on
the judiciary of the House Of repre-
sentatives, the committee on the ju-
dietary of the Senate, the attorney
general Of the United States who is
also legal advisor to congress, Judge
Golf Of the federal department Of
Justice and two former United States
attorney generals as we'll as state
supreme court irsticns and fnro,onot
LAWYERS and jurists in America.
"sThe colored voter. weighing the
defense and the evidence against,
MAJ, finally decide that possibly the
opponents Of the Dyer anti-lynching
bill are sincere, but in that case they
do not represent the views Of their
colored constituents. If represent
alive OF senator does not feel that
the federal government has the right
to enforce strictly and mercilessly

Zone would think" the deputy
complains, ut was a novelty for col
ored soldiers to attain high rank.
Here are some names of black, yell
low and mulatto soldiers from al ge-
ria, Senegal and Indo-China who in
the Second Empire and Third Repub-
lie have brought honor to France:
"The Arab Gen. Yousouff and Gen.
Virglle, both directors of artillery at
the war school, and the Senegalese
Gen. Dodds, a member of the war
council and victor of Dahomey." :
M. Diagne's list of names con-
cludes with Col. Mortenol, who had
commanded the aerial defenses Of
Paris when the Germans were bear
ing down on the capital in August,
1914. He paid tribute to Touissant
L'Ouverture, the liebartor soldier
statesman of Haiti, to Moshesh of
the Basutos, South Africa and to
Col. Young of the American section
of the colored race. ~t..at ...:
The commissioner is indignant that
Frenchmen should contemplate max
ing the law of equality a dead letter.
The immediate cause Of all this
talk was Carpenters defeat by
Battling Sikh" Senegalese, whose
war record was excellent. However,
it long has been evident that the
question would have to be faced.
France with 38,000,0OO population,
which will be only 25,OO0,O0O in a
generation if the present rate of de-
crease continues, has come to rely on
her 100000 colonials, almost all
ccolored, for defense, and must there
fore heed the warning of M. Diagne
that the French colored people will
not continue to give loyalty to
France should that country initiate
discrimination against colored people
in it's national policies.

Proper Tools Aid
In Cultivation
Implements of Good Quality
Do Better Work and Last
for Long Time

The need of good farm, lawn and
garden tools is greater today than
ever before, for many farmers and
gardeners have been unable to re-
place their wornout equipment since
the war.
In making requirements, bear in
mind that quality should be the first
consideration; for good and econom-
ical work cannot be done with poor
tools. Therefore, my reader, select
the best hardware shop or seed house
in your city or town where you know
that tools are implements Of the best
quality and manufacturer are kept.
Patriotic duty during the world war
inspired many amateurs to plant a
home garden and while some Of these
were only partial success, it was to
many people the first introduction of
vegetables fresh from the garden to
the table and as result home garden
ing continues to develop. With this
in mind, give special attention to the
production Of the best varieties Of
vegetable plants and roots and in or
der to accomplish this you must have
the proper tools for preparing the
soil; otherwise, your labor is lost as
no seed, plants, shrubs, etc., will pro-
duce results unless the soil is proper
ly fertilized and cultivated for their
particular needs. l will suggest the
best tools for your use, particularly
for the inexperienced or amateur
gardener.

other pests. Pruning should be done
right away before the sap starts up.
A good garden barrow is always USE
full and good steel rake for the soil
and another for the lawn. Also a
spade or spading fork for digging up
the soil which is the first process in
starting a garden and then comes the
hand cultivators or pulverizing and
preparing the soil and don't forget
the fertilizer to mix with the soil to
enrich it so as to obtain good results
from the seeds and plants that you
use. Warren hoes make excellent
tools for making drills preparatory to
sowing of seeds-the backs can be
used for covering.
The now advanced gardener will
find such tools as made by Planet, Jr.,
now suitable for his needs. The small
garden needs hand cultivator and
wedding hoe to keep the soil loose and
clean out the weeds and a watering
pot to irrigate the soil during the dry
spells.
There are many useful tools that
will make gardening a pleasure; all
you need to do is to go to any first.
class hardware or seed house where
you will find every needed tool that is
manufactured. We must not dwell too
long on the vegetable garden require
ments as the lawn and flower garden
need tools.
/ would suggest small set COM
prised of spade, rake, hoe, trowel and
weeder. These are sold in sets and
are very useful--a water lawn roller
to keep the ground level and use after
cutting the grass with a good ball
bearing lawn mower, which every one
must possess if he has a lawn to take
care off,, Also a pair of grass shears
for getting into close space places
that the mower does not reach and
for triming close around flower beds
and the like. Grasshooks or sickles
are handy things where there is only
little spot of grass to cut that is too
small to bother with a mower. And
don't forget the lawn grass edger as
with this tool, the rough struggling
overhanging grass along the edges of
the walk can be trimmed in a few
minutes. If you have a hedge you
will require a good pair of hedge
shears, as nothing impairs the appear
ance of the ground as much as
straggly and untrimmed hedge, and
last Of all--clean and oil your tools
after using and thereby prolonging
their lives and also producing better
results.
