ANTI-LYNCHING PARADE.

The meeting followed a silent anti
lynching parade, led by 1t. H. Oliver
which proceeded from Douglass
square to Faneuil Hall by way of Ire
mont street, Scollay square and Corn
hill. The paraders marked time in
passing Common street, the home of
Wendell Phillips, Attucks's monument
the Shaw monument, Attacks grave
and the office of the Liberator at %
Cornhil Nearly 300 negroes were in
line

duced by the chairman Of the evening
the Rev. M. A. N. Shaw, as, "theswhite

there is closed season for ducks and

for lynching. Other speakers included

held no meeting during the period OF
the campaign. Assurances have been
given that they will vote their sub
scriptions by fall and 1t is expected
that more than $4,000 will be raised
The success of the appeal shows
that the cooperative programme de-
veloped by the Urban League and the
Lincoln settlement has won the con-
fidence of Negro citizens. and that
once their confidence is gained, their
willingness and ability to meet their
civic responsibilities are demonstrated
It is only in the last few yeors that
the cities and Industrial centres of the
North have awakened to the definite
problems that have developed through
the rapid increase in their Negro pop
ulations. Leaders of the race say that
the war gave the Negro his first OPP
portunity to show his industrial worth
outside of the South, that the history

good. This, they declare has been
particularly true in the cities where
the Negro has been given sympa-
thetic cooperation in finding jobs
and places to live. 1t has been in
the cities which have been Indifferent
to the problems of race relations. they
assert that the Negro ha been les
apt to make good and that serious
friction has developed.
It is the purpose Of the Urban
League movement to promote a sym
pathetic understanding and intelli-
gent cooperation bringing represen-
tative members of races together in a
comon effort to improve conditions
from the impersonal pint of view of
the entire community. This policy
has been so successful that the Lea
que has been organized in more than
thirty cities.

The Wool Duty.

From the keW York Times.
That candid and courageous Republi-
can Senator Knuie Nelson Of Minnesota,
is honest, according to his inveterate hab-
it. Il would be ashamed" he says, ito
go back home and tell the people Of
Minnesota that |. as their senator, had
voted TO put duty Of 100 per cent on
the clothes they have to wear in winter
time. 1t would seem that this duty is
fixed on the theory that common folks
have no business TO wear wooden clothes"
Mr.. Nelson speaks the rugged words.
He understands exactly what the people
Of Minnesota feel. They are not going
to pay, without kick that the Republi-
can party will remember long, for the
happiness Of Senator Cooding and the
other shepherds with a thousand sheep
on the Siculian hills. The shepherds and
the manufacturers are few. The wear
ers are multiiudinous. 1t is hard to un-
derstand why the Republican tariff max
ers shouldn't see these facts. 1t seems
as if they courted disaster.

COLUMBIA AUTO CLUB

What an auto club may mean to Co
lumbia can be more easily imagined If
comparison with what such a club has
done in other cities is considered
In St. Louis the club has provided ev-
cry convenience for auto club members
Of that city. At the headquarters Of the
club information concerning the condi-
tions Of roads all over the state may be
had, road maps are given out, the club
provides an intra-city service for members
whereby they can have tires fixed, tow
ing done and many other services per-
formed free Of charge and others for
very nominal charge.
But that is not all, the members take
an active interest in good-roads legisla-
tion and Try TO benefit the motorist and
protect life by having stringent traffic
regulations passed and enforced. St. Louis
motorists are firm believers in their auto
club since they have realized what won
deful help it is to them.
OF course the Columbia club would
not at present do the above things on as
large a scale as the one in St. Louis has
done, but enough benefit could be real

A COTTON FORECAST

Persons who have been in the South
recently are gloomy about the cotton crop
this year. Conditions have improved
some lately and with plenty Of sunshine,
the crop may be fair one. The acreage
is probably 10 per cent higher than last
year, but the co,ton-consuming world
needs a crop 80 per cent larger than last
years.
The bulletin Of the National City Bank
Of New York tells US that the demand is
rising and the reserves diminishing. A
decline took place in the fall Of 1920 and
early pari Of 1921 that prompted the cur
iailment Of 1921 and brought the reserves
down TO a point where another short
crop will mean prices high enough 10
force a curtsfiment Of consumption.
Wool and six are in a more stable con-
dition with prices still retaining almost
their high wartime standard. Cotton
cloth was just becoming reasonably cheap
again. Ii is to be hoped that this, our
greatest export will not be a failure this
wear, or even fall short Of an average. |
Cheap cotton is our only recompense for
the high price Of other clothing materials.

of the Mason.Dixon line the issues have
been economic and the nominations have
gone to men who sought to bring the

expressed itself in a demand for men /

Facts About Optometry.
By R. A. WALTERS, Optonetrist
80l-A Broadway
Entrance on Eighth St.
In our articles on far-sight you will
recall that we stated il was caused by a
too-short eye. Near-sight, which will now
be considered, is contrasting condition
produced by an opposite cause-a too
long eye.
A near-sighted persons distant vision
is reduced, while his near vision is Of
ten better than normal. A person who
is near-sighfed to a small degree may not
be aware Of the defect.
The result of correcting short-sighted-
ness is to extend the distant fed Of vision.
The extent to which this can be done
depends upon the degree to whcih he was
short-sighted.
No class Of patients derive more salts
faction from their glasses than short.
sighted persons. They are in many cases
with the correction enabled to enjoy the
beauties Of nature for the first time, and
their enjoyment Of life is in every case
greatly increased.
