to serve this year. as In former years.
as a distributing center for these
gifts and t. place them where they
are most needed and where they will
be most appreciated. The rural south
has been hard hit by the boil weeyil
menace, and gifts which have been
sent In previous years have done
much to gladden. the hearts OF many
Of the colored children during the
Christmas season.
We feel that our friends will be
glad of the opportunity to again con-
tribute their mite toward bringing
happiness and Christmas cheer to
these homes, which otherwise might
be neglected during the holidays.
Packages addressed to me at Tus-
kegee Institute, Alabama, Will be
carefully and wisely distributed.
Some friends prefer to send money
for tho purchase OF these gifts, and
in each instance the fund Is spent as
directed by the donor.

Held as World Calamity.
Correspondent Discusses Death of
DIR. Omori, Man of Genius.
To the Editor OF The star:

To the Editor OF The star:
The death OF Dr.. Fusakichi Omori
is world calamity. cut off as he was
at time in life--only fifty-five years
OF age-when his genius should have
borne Its most precious fruits. He
was one OF the foremost voicanolo-
gists and seismologists of modern
times. accorded honor and respect
not only in his own country but
throughout the world--a man so un-
assuming, so modest. 90 kind. so low
able, that one would scarcely suppose
that he had done some OF the greatest
things 1t has been mans privilege to
do.
One OF the things he did was to
predict the eruption of the volcano 0
Sakurajima In 1910. and. following his
advice, the Japanese government for.
chilly removed from the vicinity of
the site OF the predicted eruption the
entire population. Scarcely had the
| last persons reached safety before
the terrible explosion took place.
Omori by his knowledge had saved
10000 human lives.
DR.. Omori was one of the official
delegates OF TIE Japanese govern

gress, recently held in Australia, and,
by strange coincidence, he was

record in the observatory of Rev.
Father Pigott. near Sydney, when the
disastrous earthquake of September /
wrought such devastation in Japan.
The site of the disturbance was recog-
| nized by the two expert seismoIogists
long before the tragic news reached
Sydney from Japan.
DR.. Omori had been Ill for a short
time before going to Australia, the
result, he believed. of overwork. He
returned to japan. hoping that rest
and proper medical attention would
soon restore him TO health, but that
was not to be. He was an expert on
the designs OF structures to resist
earthquakes, and Is now needed to
help Japan recover from the catas-
! trophe that has befallen her. His
death is a national misfortune. \
great man has passed from among US,
and he Is sorely needed.

ELECT THE SUPREME JUDGES

The many biased decisions of the
U. S. Supreme Court during the past
few years, which nulilfied many of
the acts of Congress on important
subjects, and created laws by other
judicial decisions, has resulted in
stimulating the movement to elect all
federal judges by vote of the people.
The demand for this reform SEEM
ingly is coming from people in near
ly all walks of life; the latest convert
to give voice to his opinion, that we
have heard of, is Senator Dill OF
Washington, who, in addressing the
convention of the State Federation OF
Labor of that state recently, advo-
Gated this reform and is quoted as
saying: o+ c,,nro,,o
Court Judges must submit their rec
ords to the people at regular inter
walls, and what is there sacred ABOUT
federal judges that they should not
he held to the same requirement
He further stated he would intro
duce in the next session of Congress
a constitutional amendment, provld-
ing for the election of federal judges.
If so, he will likely have the support
of many members of both House ana
Senate to support him. Some profess
to see a danger in such change;
they are afraid to trust the judgment
of the people, for fear they would
make mistakes in electing inefficient
men. However, we feel sure a major
ity of the people are Of the firm be-
lief that many serious mistakes are
made now in the appointment OF
these judges, and they would not be
as numerous if elected by the people:
Those opposing the election OF
Judges, also bitterly opposed the cleo
tion of United States senators for the
same reason, but the reform prevailed
Notwithstanding, and has been In
force for the past ten or twelve years.
and the result has been beneflclal, Tor
the Senate has been changed from one
of the most reactionary of legislative
bodies to a progressive one. In like
manner, by electing federal judges,
we will transform their reactionary
tendencies to a more progressive one
and bring them closer to the people.
Under our present system, once per-
son is appointed as federal judge, ne
holds that position for life and is
amenable to no one, not even the
President who appointed him, and the
only way to get rid of him should he
prove incompetent or venial, is by i'm
parchment by Congress-, and this is
SO cumbersome it has only been used
a few times in the past.
While it may not be possible to
bring about this reform immediately
i'm fact, it takes some time at best
nevertheless it will come and we be-
lieve at no far distant date. Legis-
lating judicial decree and government
by injunction must cease, if our rights
and liberties are to continue in the
futllrp

GOT THE IRON-WHAT NEXT?

Now that the French government
has seized over 100000 tons of ore,
iron, and steel in the Ruhr it does
not know what to do with the ship
ments, according to information OBJ
tanned by the department of COM
merce.
The French iron and steel industry,
it is announced, has been anxious to
avoid repetition of weakened mar
ket such as occurred in several lines
during the disposal of war stocks.
The ores can be turned over to COM
mercial organizations for sale, but the
finished steel, rails, beams, and vari-
Gus mixed products present prob
lem. The total is estimated to be
above 100000 tons. French merch-
ants are unwilling to see these put
promptly on the domestic market.
Proposals have been made to turn
over some part of the tonnage to the
companies doing reconstruction work
in the liberated region.
In the absence of a definite plan,
the government is holding on to it's
seizures, hoping that eventually they
can be used without weakening the
market.
