ART SALES OF
SOVIET HALTED
BY LEGAL JOLT
AriStoCratS File Suits to
Regain Property Sold
Abroad.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-The steady
flow of jewels, paintings and other
art works to America from Soviet
Russia suddenly has been stopped
by legal jolt that has left Ameri-
can collectors and dealers wonder
ing whether they really own the
treaSures for which they have paid
millions since the war.
Those who have made their pur-
chases from the exiled Russian
ariStocratS themselves are safe. But
those who have bought works of art
from agents of the soviet govern
ment which confiScated them from
fleeing nobility during the revolution
are not so sure where they stand.
The Living Age, explains the Sit
uation which has been brought to a
point by suits in Berlin by Russian
refugees to recover their confscated
art works placed on sale there by
soviet agents.
The Russian aristocratS forced to
flee hurriedly at the outbreak of
the revolution, were able to take
with them the smallest of their
valuable articles III most cases.
AS a consequence, tapestries,
paintings, furniture and other
works valued at unnumbered mil

It will weaken your entire SyS-
tenn. You can see that it is neces-
sary to drive away constipation, and
Konjola, the new medicine, has
proved itself compound that is
able to do just such thing-rid
your body of poiSonS and restores
the inner-syStem to normal action.
Reports from former sufferers are
received almost daily by the Konjola
Man at the Hook drug store, Illi-
nois and Washington streets, Indi-
annapolis, where crowds are calling
daily ito ind out for themselves
about this remarkable remedy.
Just the other day Mr.. Milton
Roe, living at Ills North Dearborn
street, this city, made the following
statement to the Konjola man:
"Konjola is the first medicine l
have found to end my stomach trou-
BILE and give me lasting relief from
the stomach miseries I had been
suffering" said Mr.. Roe. Hardly
day went by that I didn't suffer
some kind of pain and was begin
ming to believe would have to go
through the rest of my life with
that half-Sick feeling hanging over
me all the time.
1.-THE worst thing about my case
was constipation. I had taken SO
many different kinds of laxative
tablets that I honestly believe they
did me more harm than good, be-
cause I noticed, from time to time,
that I had to increase the dosage
and there was always more of a
strain in order to get proper elimi-
nation. Sometimes I had such head
aches that I thought my head
would burst and was often subject
to dizzy spells. A dull, sluggish
feeling came over my whole body
and 1 always felt tired and worn
out. My stomach, too, caused me a
lot of trouble. I had a good appe-
tite, but my food never seemed to
DO me any good. In fact, it would
form like a hard knot in my stom-
ach and sour and ferment, until
my whole system was bloated with
gas. Sharp pains would strike me
in my sides and sometimes they
we're so severe they would take my
breath away.
"I finally made up my nina to
give Konjola trial. After taking
only one bottle, I could notice diff
ference and within a few days more
there seemed to be new feelings of
health creep over my whole system.
Altogether, I have taken three bot
ties of Konjola and the relief it gave
me is amazing My bowels move
regularly without the aid of laxa-
tiveS at all and I have not had a
dizzy spell since taking the second
bottle of this medicine. This medi-
cine gave me relief from my stom-
ach miserieS almost at once. That
heavy lump in my stomach diSap-
peared and now my digestion is per-
feet. / do not have those sharp
pains in my side and I can sleep all
night through without waking up
once. Konjola has certainly meant
much to me and I will gladly tell
others about it,"
The Konjola Man is at Hooks
drug store, Illinois and Washington
streets, Indianapolis, where he is
daily meeting the public and intro
ducing and explaining the merits of
this remedy. Konjola is now sold in
all Hook stores and by all the lead
ing druggists throughout this Sec

Catholic Bishops Book

To the Editor:
Senator Blease, of South Caro-
lima, seems to be much alarmed over
the matter of inter-racial marriages.
| have no utterance to give forth on
that subject, but | have been reading
a rare old volume, lately, by Ro-
man Catholic bishop, Gregoire, pub
lished in 1910. The same topic was
then much discussed, and it will be
interesting to your many readers to
have in mind a certain trend of the
discussion. | quote from the volume
to which / have referred:
what has resulted from those
prohibitive laws, more particularly
those which relate to marriage? Lib
ertinism has eluded or overcome
them. This will always take place
when men act in contradiction to
nature.
81 leave to psychologists the task
of unfolding the advantages of the
mixture of races; with regard to the
physical constitution as well as to
the energy of the moral faculties,
exemplified at the island of st. Hell
ena, where it has produced mag
nificent variety of mulattoes.
leave TO moralists and politicians,
who ought to start from the same
principles, but who are often in di-
rect opposition to them, to weigh the
consequences of the opinion, which
considers it a dishonor to have a
Negress as a legitimate wife, whilst
as concubine she is no disgrace.
Barlow on the contrary, proposes
to encourage mixed marriages by
premiums offered for that purpose.
Neither the Negroes or Mulattoes
can ever augment the white cast,
whilst the latter augments daily that
of the Mulattoes. The inevitable re-
suit will be, that the Mulattoes in
the end will become masters. Rea-
soning from this observation, Robin
believes, that the distinction of color
is scourge of colonies, and that st
Domingo would be still in its splendor,
il it had followed the Spanish policy
which does not exclude creoles from
intermarriage and other social adj
vantages." - George +. Bragg, st.

What Is to Become of Us?

To the Editor:
Being a constant reader of your
forum, and being interested in the
racial problems here, have several
observations would make.
The greatest problem confronting
the Negro is what is to become of
him as a race. Is he to be eXter-
minated by sheer force and strength
of the stronger or is he to be as
simulated? If he is to live has he
force and courage to unite and defy
the enemy?
Because the Negro is so divided,
his problem is a momentous one.
There are the old school race men,
the youth group and the middle aged
thinkers. If the younger people
were not so lacking in morals and I'M
possible desires and were more de-
pendable, they could aid their race
a great deal. But they are more
hindrance than help in solving the
problem.
II is to this last named group,
those born in the sos that the
progress of the race is due. This
noble far-sighted group is at pres
ent fighting the problems that the
old school is afraid to attack-prob-
lens that the youth are too ire
sponsible to care about. There are
many things that the race must do
themselves if they would succeed
no other race can or will help them,
and united action is their only way
to succeed.-J. E. Cook, Preside,
Calf.

Queer Capers

The Negro performs some queer
capers. They spend most of their
waking hours-when not in church
fighting for their rights, fighting
against discrimination, and segrega-
ton. But just as soon as any Ne
70 begins to expand and enjoy some
of these rights" the rest of the
Negroes jump on him and take his
head off.
He is accused of "getting away
from his people" and many other
things too terrible to contemplate.
If Negro moves out of the slums
and into white neighborhood. Ne
groes join with the whites in claim
ing that he has made a mistake and
that he should stay with his own peo-
pie.
Negroes have fought every anti
marriage bill that has appeared in
northern legislatures. And yet when
it was rumored that Roland Hayes
was about to marry an Austrian
woman of noble birth a mighty howl
went up in black America. 1t is that
the case is just about hopeless. Theer
has got to be a lot more education
and lot more of dieing before we
can begin to move out of the jungle.
More school houses and buster un-
dertakers for both black and white
folk may do a great deal of good.

Cheating Cheaters

One of the most terrible aspects

There are thousands of pune blood
ed Anglo Saxon men and women
with stunted and dwarfed souls who
hate the South for what it has done,
not to ringers" but to them. There
are also highly intelligent men who
are now outspoken in their criticism
of the narrowness and hide bound
prejudice which has many in this Sec
ton within its grip.
Unfortunately at the present rate
in which this narrowness is still be-
ing permitted to polute the minds of
the young whites, it will be ages be-
fore there is sufficient reaction to
clarity their mental faculties. But
at heart these youth would rather be
fair, square and honest and have ex-
allied feeling that they were able to
give the colored youth the same fair
chance without fear of being beaten
in the race of life.
