HUMAN LEFT HAND
SENT TO RANDOLPH
NEGRO TOLD TO BE CAREFUL.
CAN GET HIM AS EASY IN
N. Y. AS IN GEORGIA.

NEW YORK, n. "a package
containing a human lett hand, evil
IDENTIFY that OF white man, and let
ter signed *. K. K" threatening
murder, was received today by A.
Phillip Randolph, editor of negro
monthly magazine, The Messenger.
The package, which bore a wrapper
marked from a friend, New Orleans,
was opened by the police.
The letter warned Randolph to keep
out OF white mems movements and to
unite with his own race. Randolph
said he believed it was sent by his
enemies in the south and that it re-
ferred to a recent controversy between
himself and Marcus Garvey, president
of the provincial republic OF Africa
and editor of The Negro World.
After telling Randolph that his
movements had been watched, the au-
thor of the letter warns him against
interfering with anything that may
happen in the south. 1t concludes:
''Now be careful how you publish
this letter in your magazine or we
NAV have to send your hand to some
one else. Don't think we can't get you
and your crowd. Although you are IN
New York city it is just as easy as
if YOU were in Georgia. II you can
not unite with your own race, we Will
find out what's the matter with you

NO FLIES IN ALASKA, RE-
CENT EXPEDITION DISCLOSES
DR.. Aldrich. of U. S. National Mu-
scum, Ascertains Interesting Fact.

Everybody knows that mosquitoes
are frightful pest in Alaska; but it
is news to learn that housefies do not
exist there.
This interesting fact was definitely
ascertained by Dr. ]. NJ. Aldrich, OF
she United States National Museum,
in the course of recent expedition
which he made for the purpose OF
studying Alaskan insects.
He found two entirely new species
OF mosquitoes. Horse flies were album
dant everywhere. But there were no
house1ies. In vain did he explore gro
Gerry stores, restaurants, canneries,
garbage dumps and other likely places
for them.
The fact is that the housefly is by
origin a tropical insect. 1t cannot en-
dure cold weather In temperate latl-
tudes a few housefies manage to live
over the winter in heated houses
enough OF them, that is to say, to start
a fresh crop in the following spring.

Suicide Commonest
Among Physicians

More physicians in the United
States commit suicide than any other
class of professional men, This is re-
ported to be proved by statistics for
1921, which are as follows: Doctors,
SO; judges, 81; bank presidents, 81;
clergymen, 2l; editors, 10; mayors,
I; members Of the legislature, 7.
Which prompts DR.. S. Dana Hub
bard, director OF the bureau of pub
lie education, New York, to write to
the Medical Journal as follows:
This record seems to indicate that
the occupational strain is greater in
medicine than in any of the other pro-
LESSONS"
And he suggests revision of the
hours of medical men.

WORK ON HIGHWAYS is
PROGRESSING RAPIDLY

Jackson, Miss, Aug. IA
Construction work on the Mis-
sissippi links of the three great
National Highways which trav-
erse this State, is progressing
rapidly, it has been announced
by the State Highway Depart
ment. These highways, the Miss
issippi Valley Highway, the
jackson Highway and the Old
Spanish Trail, connect Miss
issippi by direct route with the
entire Mississippi Valley and
the Middle Western States, and
the southern section of the
United States, from the Atlant-
ic to the Pacific coast. These
highways are of the utmost i'm
portance to the prosperity of
the State, since they provide
arteries through which traffic
can flow in and out of the State
to all sections of the country.
If one link of one of these
great highways is allowed to be
worn down by traffic and the
elements, until it is passeble
only in the best weather, it will
defeat the entire object of the
highway, for "a chain is no
stronger than its weakest link"
Yet, there is danger that this
may become the condition of
the Mississippi link. Unless the
proposed constitutional amend
ment, giving the State control
over a State Highway System,
is adopted by the people at the
November elections, these high
ways will not be maintained in
the condition of construction,
with Improvement shown from
year to year.
Under the present constitu-
tion, the boards of supervisors
have full jurisdiction over roads
ferries and bridges in their re-
spective counties. The amend
ment would change this slightly
giving the State control over a
State Highway System, which
would not exceed seven per cent
of the total highway mileage,
and relieving the counties of the
burden of maintaining the main
trunk highways. Under the
present haphazard system of

responsible for the condition of
the roads within their respect
i've limits, and the through
highways are not considered as
whole, but in small sections, in
some places only a few miles.
Often times, difficulties, finan-
cial and otherwise, cause these
roads to be neglected for a
period of time sufficiently long
to allow the roads to wear down
to such a degree, that the ex-
pense of repairs would practi-
cally construct new road.
Under the amended law, these
highways would be part of
State Highway System, con-
Meeting every seat and center
of population in the State, and
this system would be main
tanned in the best condition pos
sible during the entire year. In
this way, the most important
trunk highways in the State
would receive the attention of
trained and experienced engin-
GERS, who would be in a position
to watch the roads closely and
to act Immediately in case of
need of repairs. This would re-
lieve the counties of the expense
of maintaining these trunk
highways, and allow them to
devote their attention to roads
of lesser Importance, which are
at present neglected. It is pro-
posed to place the expense of
maintaining these trunk high
ways upon the automobile
owners since they are the ones
who will be benefited. This
does not mean only Mississippi
automobile owners, but the
thousands of tourists who pass
over the highways annually, will
pay a large part in the form of
gasoline and automobile tax.
This tax will be more than re-
paid however, by the money
saved from tires, gasoline, and
general wear and tear on the
car.
This system is at present
under construction, and it's COM
pletion depends upon the con-
stitution of Federal Aid allot-
ments, by means of which a
large part of it is being con-
structed. Unless this amend
ment is adopted, these allot-
ments will cease, since the Fed
eral Highway Act of 1921 requir-
es that within three years after
the passage of the Act, all of
the States shall give the High
way Departments control over
a State Highway System, upon
which Federal funds may be
expended. This is required by
the Government to insure main
tenance of roads, for the con-
struction of which, federal funds
have been spent. From 1916 to
1921, millions of dollars were
literally thrown away, due to
failure of the counties to main
