Il. s. About
Seizure

NEW YORK CITY, June 3.-The
"Revue Parlementaire" OF May 1, pub
lished in Paris, France, contains re-
ports of American atrocities in Haiti,
also documents showing the diplomatic
and business conspiracies leading up
TO the seizure of the black republic.
An article in the Revue Parlmen-
taire' states that business in Haiti is
at a stand-still, exports having almost
entirely stopped, that business failures
have begun to occur, and that thou
sands of country people in Haiti un-
able to find work in their own country,
are leaving in an endeavor to find it
elsewhere.
I he report also contains a letter,
dated March 20. 1922, giving an ac-
count of the arrest and Imprisonment
of six members of the staff OF the
newspaper, Courier Haitien," pub
lished in Port au Prince.
I'VE appeal in the name of Right, of
Justice and of human Solidarity" says
the letter. TO the universal conscience,
to the judgment Of great free peoples
who have always made of Right and
Justice the inhexible rules of their
existence

Alderman +. K. Jackson intro
dueed an ordinance in the City
Council Wednesday, which, if
passed, will prevent public demon
strations by the Ku Klux Klan or
similar organizations. The text of
the ordinance is as follows:
Be 1t Ordained By The City COun-
Gil OF The City of Chicago:
Section I. 1t shall be unlaw-
full for any person within the City
to appear in public in any mask.

build a modern Office building in the
city that they selected as their future
home. He in forceful and able man.
ne made clear the position that the
Woodmen were fully decided to leave
Denver, which is their present head
quarters, but that several other cities
including st. Louis, Detroit, Cleve-
land and Indianapolis had also made
overtures to his organization to con-
slider them when they made their
final selection. Mr.. White diplomat
ically attempted to be non-committal,
but was unableto conceal his weak
ness for Chicago. One of the high
spots of his address was his explana-
ton of success in modern business.
"All you've got to do is to know your
stuff" said Mr.. White. His address
was enthusiastically received and all
indications reveal that Chicago will
be the future home of the American
Woodmens

HOPE FOR
DYER BILL
IS FADING
If Ever Passed VIII Be
So MutiIated As TO
Render II Harmless

WASHINGTON, D. C., June S.
In spite OF the claims OF ardent adyo-
Gates to the contrary, close students Of
affairs here are convinced that the
Lyer Anti-Lynch Bill in its present
form is doomed to death
An unfavorable report on the bill by
the Senate Judiciary Committee was
narrowly averted last Monday. Des-
perate efforts on the part of officials
of the y. A. A. c. p. saved the life of
the bill at this crisis. James Weldon
Johnson rushed to Washington and
went into conference with Senators
Borah, Lodge, Curis. Capper, Calder,
Ernst, Shortridge, Sterling, McCor-
mick and Dillingham;. Upon their in
tervention the Committee decided to
postpone action on the bill for two
more weeks.
May Redraft Bill
1t is an assured fact that when the
Dyer Bill is reconsidred it will be
almost new document. and il Is.
feared that many of the vital clauses
will be stricken from it. Violent oppo-
sition to the bill has been aroused
among Southern senators who insist
that it is unconstitutional, to say moth
ing of its violation Of the Southern
doctrine of states rights. 1t IS be
lieved that this opposition, as long as
il lasts, will prevent the enactment of
the measure.
Borah Anxious
Senator Borah, in cooperating with
the n. A. A. c. P. in behalf of the bill
appears to be extremely anxious lest
unfavorable action should result in the
defeat of certain Republican nominees
at the coming elections. Convinced
that the bill in its present form would
never be passed he prevailed upon its
sponsors TO allow its redrafting along
lines that would more nearly conform
to the wishes of Southerners in Con-
gress.
Briefs arguing the constitutionality
OF the bill were submitted by Moor
field Storey and William II. Lewis.

Acquaintance With Burglar
Who Posed As Pastor

as pastor of Bethel A. NJ. E. Church,
Both and Dearborn Streets, is in the
County Jail, held in default of $10,-
600 bond, charged with robbery.
Specialized in Silks
Police assert that Clark made it
business to rob South Side stores
of women finery and sell the stolen
goods to his congregation. Attired
himself in expensive clothing, he was
arrested Monday by Detective Ser
geants Barry and Ward and Police
man Bunde of the Stanton Avenue
station. They claim he was then in
the act of peddling stolen fnery.
After a confession was wrung
/, from him, Clark named over 200 wo-
men who had been his customers.
Several of them were rounded up
waists and silk hose which Clark con-
fessed to stealing.
Confessions We're wrung from The
erstwhile preacher that he had robbed
the store of P. w. Chavers. 534 E.

~
ton, of Evanston, assistant pastor of
Bethel Church, Clark is in no way
connected with Bethel, either as

to communicate with the Rev. S. L.

cessful.
In addition to being pastor of Be
thel Church, Clark also told the po-
lice he was employed as an insur-
ance adjuster by the Western Casual
ty Company.

station, where he was presently Joined by
another gentleman, equally dilapidated
and out at the elbows and heels.
An hour later this ragged pair appeared
at the superintendent's Office at the Wood
lawn Cemetery and applied for work as
experienced grave diggers. The superin-
tendent was sorry. but he had plenty of
grave diggers. II they, liked, he would
take their names and addresses and let
them know when business picked up.
But Izzy-it was none other-persisted.
"Fll make you a proposition" he stated.
How much do you pay for a regular sized
grave?
"Six dollars replied the superintend-
ent. And you won't get a nickel more
anywhere around New York"
Izzy conferred briefly with Moe.
"T'll tell you what we'll do" he said to
the superintendent. "We'n dig all the
graves you got for $3-that's $3.50 apiece,
and fll em up besides. What do you say?
We're up against It."
You're hired" said the superintendent
briskly. He pointed to a pile OF shovels
and led them to an obscure corner Of the
cemetery to begin work.
The Washington times., 1922-06-11

All day long Izzy and Moe picked and
shovelled, digging and filling seven graves.
When evening came they offered to work
overtime, and after showing them how to
get out of the cemetery, the superin-
tendent left and went home.
Immediately the grave diggers transfer
red their operations to the street side Of
the cemetery, less than 100 feet from the
suspected moonshine distillery A man
standing in front of the house regarded
them with bored interest while they
worked with might and main digging q
grave close to the fence.
For a while it seemed as II they were
working in vain. The man simply was
not interested enough to cross the street
and that was the sole object of their dis
guise. They wanted to get acquainted
and obtain whisky with no suspicion on
his part as to their identity.
Moe suggested that they call over and
ask him for a drink Of water, but ley
vetoed the idea.
"rn bring him over here" he predicted.
"Just watch"
He climbed out Of the grave and CON-
menced work on another while Moe started
