COURT BLOCKS
RELEASE OF Al
NEGRO SOLDIERS
Have Already Been z
Years in Prison
Especial to The paIlv wOrker)

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 90
An attempt to secure release
for Al of the Negro troopers of
the Twenty-fourth infantry,
sentenced to life Imprisonment
by a general court-martiaI in
December, 1917, on a charge of
taking part in a race riot at
Fort Sam Houston, Texas, has
been frustrated by the United
States circuit court Of appeals
here.
The court has upheld the de-
cision of the United States dis
trict court at Leavenworth,
Kansas, in denying writs of
habeas corpus to the Negro
! prisoners.
Facts Are Falsfled.
The true story of the Sam Houston
race riots, which has been consist
emily falsified by the capitalist news
papers, resembles the story of many
other race riots" for which the Ne
groes have invariably been imprison-
ed 1t is universally admitted by i'm
partial observers of the Sam Houston
affair that a group Of Negro soldiers
came upon a policeman brutally beat
ing a Negro woman with his club.
One of the soldiers tried to remon-
strate with the officer, and asked why
the woman was not arrested, instead
of being assaulted. For his pains, the
Negro received a blow from the Of
ficers club. The other Negro soldiers
came to the rescue, and manhandled
the officer. And the citizens of the
town came to the help of the police
man, and drove the soldiers away,
firing on them as they fed.
For this affair thirteen of the Negro
soldiers were hanged-after a pre-
tense of trial-and many more SEN
fenced to long terms in the federal
penitentaries.
Suffer Terrible Conditions.
From the few men who have been
released from the prison can be learn
ed something of the terrible condi-
lions to which the American gov
eminent condemns its prisoners, and
especially its Negro prisoners. AL
most unbelievable brutalities-phys-
zeal and mental-are inflicted on
these men.
That the friends of the Negro
prisoners will have difficult time in
obtaining shortening of the sen
tence is again indicated by the re-
fusal of the courts to permit oppor
tunity for a fair hearing.

ests developed their commercial ma
chinery, built up their industries, and
took away many markets from the
European competitors.
The increase over the 1913 Figures,
however, big as it may be, is actually
not as big as surface indications
would lead one to conclude. One
must take into account the great rise
in prices since the pre-war days.
1t is also to be noted that there
has been a sharp drop in the foreign
trade of this country since the war
days when European industry was not
competing to the extent that it does
today with American interests in the
world market.

AGRICULTURAL CENSUS TO Be
TAKEN OF DELAWARE FARMS
WORK TO START DECEMBER IST
AND END BY LAST OF JANUARY
NJ. T. TOlsOn in Charge of the Work
Which is to Be Done by U. S.
Department of Commerce

The farmers of Delaware may be
interested to know that an agricul-
tural census will be taken of every
farm in the State within the next
few months by the Bureau of the
Census of the L. S. Department of
Commerce. This work is being done
in every State in the Union and will
begin December l to continue until it
is completed. 1t is the desire of those
in charge, however, to finish this work
by January 81 if possible. This work
in Delaware will be in charge Of Mr..
NJ. 7. TolsOn who will have his head
quarters in the County Extension Of
flee, second floor Postal Building, in
Dover where he may be interviewed
by any one interested in assisting in
taking this survey. 1t will require
the services of twenty-one enumera-
tors to do this work in the entire
State which has been divided into as
many enumeration districts. This
census differs from the one taken in
1920 in that it comprises only the
agricultural activities on each farm,
and therefore does not include both
the agricultural and population sta
tistics as reported in 1920 In furn-
ishing the enumerators with the type
of information called for in the sched-
ules the farmers need not hesitate to
answer all the questions, as all data
collected will be held as strictly con
idential by the Department This re-
port will be compiled and published
by counties and states covering the
entire country, and no individual farm
record will be disclosed in any Of
these publications.

TURKEYS SCARCE IN DELAWARE
But in Larger Growing Centers They
Are Said to Be More Abundant

Young turkeys are scarce in lower
Delaware, due to the cold and wet
spring, wnen a gred: many of them
we're killei off. TUrkcy raisers, who
Generally ave a. ara 80 in a flock,
report their flOcks swindled to 10 to
Is. While reports of the scarcity of
these birds on the Delaware Maryland
Peninsula is made, other reports from
the large turkey growing districts
throughout the United States lead
observers to believe that the price of
the Thanksgiving turkey will be lower
this year than at any time since the
price Of the birds took record jumps
during the war. The city markets at
this early date are being swamped
with turkeys from South America
and from the producing districts in
the Middle West. Early reports in
dicated that the Texas and other
western crop of turkeys would be
much smaller this year than last,
and that as a result the prices would
be higher. The fact that the birds
are finding their way to the city
markets in unusually large quantities,
shows that early predictions were
wrong. The price being paid for
them at the producing centers is much
lower and assures the city household
er that the fowl will not sell for fancy
prices. To the residents in the towns
in lower Delaware the promise of low
er price turkeys will be pleasing; but
in the turkey growing districts thru
out the state, those farmers who make
a business of preparing the fowl for
market will be displeased with the
prevailing price. For years the resi-
dents in the towns of the state have
been compelled to pay prices equal
ling those paid for the same poultry
in the city markets. This week tur-
keys are quoted in the city markets
at fifty cents per pound, as against
seventy-five cents last Thanksgiving.
But at sixty cents the dealers are
only hoping TO make sales, and open
ly state that the price asked is only
'feeler' to try out the market. They
do not hope for any such price this
year.

DEATH RECORD OF THE WEEK
Harry, 9 Year-Old Son of r. G. Dunn,
of Virginia, Formerly of Camden.
This State, Dies of Meningitis


Harry Dunn, aged 8 years, son of
r. G. Dunn, of Highland Park, Va.
and grandson of Alfred Dunn, of
Camden, this state, died Saturday of
meningitis, which centered in his
brain. He had been ill for a month
and unconscious for ten days. Phv
sicians and specialists were balked in
their efforts to treat successfully the
rare disease which caused the death
OF Harry. 1t is said that the symp-
toms were utterly different from any,
thing know to medical science except
meningitis, and hence doctors are of
the opinion that it was peculiar
form of this disorder which attacked
the lad. 1t was first thought that he
suffered from spinal meningitis, but
this theory was changed. 1t is said
the boy was seized with violent pains
Of the head a month ago, and that his
condition steadily became worse, de-
spite medical attention On Noven1-
Der 4, it is said, he lapsed into uncon-
sciOusness from which he never re-
covered. A brother, Robert, IL, and
a sister, Madge, 6, survive Harry. r.
q. Dunn is proprietor of an automo-
bile filling station on the Brookland
Park boulevard, in Barton Heights.
Funeral services were held from the
home of his grandfather, Alfred Dunn
of Camden, on Monday, with inter
ment in Odd Fellows cemetery, Cam
