LAND DEPARTMENT
INCOME IS LARGE

Taken individually, the total month
ly receipts in the state land depart
nlent for the first three months OF
this year, Rudolph KuchIer, state
land commissioner, said yesterday,
are greater than the receipts OF any

still improving and the people are
more optimistic. Market conditions.
especially in the sheep and cattle in
dustries, are much better than they
We're a year ago, he declared, and the
prices for wool and cattle are much
higher than a year ago. The report
for March, Mr.. Knchler pointed out,
shows that $33,075.S3 was received
by the land department in payment
OF interest and rentals on land and
the large amount is due to the assist
ance given the cattle and sheep men
by the war finance corporation in the
form of loans

northern part of the state and one
held on the last day Of the month in
Maricopa county, Mr.. Kuchler stated,

tention to the work of Miss May
Craemer, the noted sculptress and
her comment on why she chose a
Negro female figure for her heroic
statue symbolizing the New World
DR.. Crane reports Miss Craemer as
saying:
81 believe that the most beautiful
women in the world, spiritually and
physically, are to be found among the
colored women in the southern states
of america. That is why I chose the
figure of a negress to symbolic the
new world.
"It was the deep mystic beauty in
the eyes of the southern 'mammies
that first attracted me in Virginia.
There is more spirituality shining
out of the eyes of these colored wo-
men than can be found in any race
of white women on the earth.
"The marvel to me is how the
beauty of the negress has for CEN
turies escaped artists and sculptors.
She is more beautiful in face and

other in this contention is right. Lin
coin is one Of the great democrats of
American history in spite of the war
between north and south, in spite Of
all the mistakes that he and his fel-
lows of both sides made In the crisis.
LINCOLN BIG PROBLEM.
Lincoln sought at time of pecu-
liar national backsliding to bring the
country back to it's first great faith,
the faith that all men are created free
and equal-a great dogma that is not
quite the fact Because men of prop
erty in 1860 would not submit their
rights of property to the will of SIM
pie majorities there arose crisis.
THE southerners had abandoned
Jefferson. They said everywhere in
loud that the Declaration of Independ-
ence was fraud, fallacy. They set
up the contrary ideal that inequality
is the rule of life; they insisted that
the owners of property should govern
everywhere. That meant that the
owners Of slaves should govern.
Now there may be fallacy in the
assertion Of the ideal of equality. But
that is the fundamental fact in the
Declaration OF Independence. The
existence of the American nation is
due to the belief in that ideal.
SET IDEAL FOR WORLD.
'If the United States has Influenced
mankind in anything 1t has not done
so by it's work of art, by its inventions.
or by it's statecraft, important as these
have been; it has influenced mankind
everywhere because of it's ideal of hu-
man equality; the struggle for the
elevation of the heavy laden workers
Of the world.
"Now the south departed from the
ideal. Its thought became realistic.
Its leaders were political scientists.
Its philosophers sought to prove that
every man is either inferior to or su-
perior to some one else. They stun
bled about in the great wilderness of
science searching for the law Of the
survival of the fittest and the SUBJ
ordination Of the unfit, the Negro, to
everlasting servitude. And science
supported their claim. History told
them they were right. Religion
preached their doctrine. Literature
was full of evidence of the gospel of
inequality. The evidence was over
whelming."

his work noticeable.

Cole-Talbert, one of the chief artists

large white audience in Detroit that
Rex G. White of the Detroit News
made favorable reference to this won
derful singer in following fashion:
Florence Cole-Talbert, declared
by many to have voice rivaling
Galli-Curci, was the star of the eve
ming. This brilliant singer found diff
ficulty in getting away from her audi
ence although she obliged with four
numbers. Her voice is a soprano of
great range and sweetness, her vocal
fiexibility is marked and gives ease
and clarity to her utterance. She
made tremendous hit with her audi
ence."
That the music loving public ap-
preciates high class music as we'll as
blues" is being evidenced by the big
demand made since June for ''The Bell
Song" and THE Kiss" which numbers
