 Atlanta, Ga - (U.P.) - Mem- restricted to the elite, who are banded together to run down the communist. The rabble isn't want ed.
 "Our membership consists of the 1 highest type of professional and business man." explained R. D. | Mcdowell, the one-armed treas ... urer and secretary of the Men of Justice, Mcdowell was an im- perial representative in the old Ku Klux Klan.
 Qualification of membership de- mands that man be of pure Cau- casian race; must be q citizen of the United States; must be a be- liever in a Supreme Being.
 Serious problems now facing our white race are being intensi- fled almost daily by various agen- cies,' Mcdowell said. We resent the encroachments that are being foStered by the communists, such as telling the negro in this part of the country that he is the equal of the whites.
 Those teachings will lead to only one thing and that is blood shed. The Negroes are better armed than the whites to-day"
 Leaders of anti communistic organizations in the south claim I've have seen" the map reported to be in existence showing a negro empire the communists propose to set up in the south after the "Red Revolution" ha staken over this country. The extent of tho tarri tory this proposed negro empire would include varies. Some say it includes only the states in the deep south; others claim the pro- posed empire extends up into Illi- nois.
 Negro colleges, which Mcdowell says are being financed to great extent in the south with funds from other sections of the country, constitute menace in giving a higher education to the negroes at too rapid a rate.
 Estimates the number of negro communists in Atlanta vary from 5000 to 25.0O0.
 Charles O Barrett. head of a wholesale peanut product firm, is chairman of the national board of the men of justice. At the present time. the membership rolls include but 25e. The only unit established is at Atlanta but branches soon are to be organized at Jacksonville. Fla, and other places.

the English at Fort George, near Newark, bombarded Fort Niagara and nearly took it. In rallying his men to recapture Queenston Heights, General Brock was killed. On the day of his funeral, Van Rensselaer, ordered that during the services minute guns should be fired from Fort Niagara "as a mark of respect due to a brave enemy"
 There was constant lombard ment back and forth between Fort Niagara and Fort George with re- sulting damage to both forts, but no development of great moment. It was during one of these inter- changes of cannon fire that Fanny Doyle wrote her name immortally upon the pages of American his tory.
 Fanny Doyle was the wife of an American artilleryman whom the British captured at Queenston Heights. Determined to offset his loss and to do her bit for the American cause, she placed herself at the disposal of the commandant of Fort Niagara.
 
 cannonading 1 have ever seen," he afterward wrote, "she attended the 6-pounder on the old mess house with hot shot and showed fortitude equal to the Maid of Orleans" It is a matter of record that 2,000 round of shot and 1S0 shells were thrown into the old fort while Fan ny Doyle was serving its guns.
 In the spring of 1873, the Amer ican forces moved against Fort George and took it, holding it until December of that year. Word came that the British regulars, with In- dian endorsements, were advanc- ing on Fort George. Under war department orders, General Me- Cure. commanding the American forces, spiked the guns of Fort George, burned Newark, and with drew to Fort Niagara.
 To retaliate for the destruction of Newark was the first considera- tion of the British as they returned to theabandoned but still service able Fort George. They had no trouble in capturing Fort Niagara and then followed the wholesale devastation of the entire Niagara frontier from Lewiston to Buffalo. The British had their revenge-a countryside in ashes, homes gone, families scattered-and they held the fort until the Treaty of Ghent ended the war in 1915. Then 1t re- verted for all time to the United States.
 Soon thereafter, in 1917, was ne- gotiated one of the most sifinifi- cant international agreements known to mankind. But few short sentences containing no high sounding diplomatic phrases and

 Much has been written of this hold period between 17S3 and 1796 in the history of many other Notifications, as we'll as of Old Fort Niagara. along the pres cnt American Canadian border. The British cherished a lingering hone that the line of their empire could in some way be drawn much to the south and to the east of that which finally obtained and they sought every device of delay.
 England had another problem of safely evacuating her colonial subjects who had remained loyal throughout the American Rcvolu- tion. It is variously estimated that between 500 0and 5000 of these loyalists passed from various east crn and southern sections through Fort Niagara to safety on Cana dian soil.
 Under the energetic patronage of the Tory commander, John But let, settlement of farmers had spread out from the old fort dur ing the Revolution, but for the most part it had remained a post of strategy, the key to the great west rather than center of pop uIation. After 17S3. the empire loyalists settled rapidly on what is now the Canadian side of the from tier. Newark, now Niagara -on-tha- Lake, and Queenston rose from the forest, the former becoming the most important village in upper Canada. There on the 17th of Sep tember, 1791, John Graves Simcoe, original governor of upper Canada, established the first parliament.
 Peaceful and productive indus try around Old Fort Niagara was again disturbed by grim war in 1872. sometimes called the Second War for Independence. For years American soldiers at Fort Niagara and the English at Fort George had built up personal friendship through meetings in Newark and there were gatherings, frequent and pleasant, between the military and the people of the surrounding countryside.
 The British lieutenant-governo General Sir Isaac Brock, the story runs, was bidding goodbye to some American officers from Fort Ni- agara who had come to service at St Marks church in Newark just before the war. The general kissed the two little girls of Dr West, post surgeon at Fort Niagara, say ing, Goodbye, my little rosy checked girls. The next time we meet it may be as enemies"
 General stephen Van Rensselaer,, ''the eighth Patroon," now com mandant at Fort Niagara. took Queenston Heights as the first step in the war along the border. Troops from Fort Niagara were sent to Lewiston to participate in this en- gagement. During their absence,

has withstood them all for IF years.
 And so it is fitting indeed that old Fort Niagara. now completely restored, within and without. to the picturesque condition of its TO- mantle early days, an eloquent monument to two centuries of con- flict, should be the site of the im- posing new memorial to the Rush. Bagot Treaty. It is appropriate, too, that restoration of the Old Fort and completion of the monu- ment should both be dedicated at one and the same time, with the official participation of England, France, Canada and the United States, during the forthcoming Four-Nationa Celebration.

 Ratified in 1918, the Rush-Bag- ot Treaty, while strictly dealing only with the limitation of naval armaments upon the Great Lakes, came by tacit extension to bring about complete identification of the entire Canadian American frontier. second longest in the world. Speaking before the League of Nations Assembly in 1928, the Canadian premier. Mackenzie King, pointed 1t out as an example to a war-sick world.

years. I went with him year be-
fore I knew he was married. Now
he and his wife are separated.
Sometimes I think I'm in love
with him and then again I just
hate him.
I go to his mothers house quite
a lot. The last few times I've
been there, there was an 18-year-
old girl there. She sits on his lap
or anything to make him notice
her. I found them in a compro-
missing position together. He says
he loves me but if he did, would
he do anything like that?
I've been going with another
fellow for year and he knows all
about this first fellow, but wants
to marry me just the same. He
has a swell job while the other
isn't working. He could make me
a wonderful husband. Should I
stick with him and forget the
other?
ONE WHO LOVED AND LOST.
Answer-The first boy isn't worth
your time. He's one of those emo
tional infants who love many
women briefly and find it impossi-
BILE to love one for any length OF
time. You do not tell me enough
about the other to make my opinion
worth anything.

Dear Jane Jordan-I have
been a widow for the last five
years. I am considered nice
looking and have plenty of gentle
man friends. Up to the present
time I had never considered mar
riage again, as was very much
in love with my husband. 1 am

lots of years ahead of me. 1 hope.
Last summer I had a date with
young man who is perfect
gentleman in every respect, ard
I have been going with him ever
since. I am afraid I ain falling
in love. He has shown me
wonderful time, and I enjoy be-
ing with him so much. l always
feel so contented when with him,
but he has never shown any signs
of really liking me.
He sort of keeps me in hot
water and 1 don't know how to
take him. Whether he likes me
or net I can't say. One minute
he is attentive and the next is
sort of indifferent. To make a
long story short, it is making me
junpy. PUZZLED.
Answer-Don't be so h9sty in eX-
pecting a declaration Of love, and
don't scare him away by falling in
love before he does. Throw your
self into some hobby or useful oc-
and don't concentrate so
hard on the love problem.
Sometimes I think that ones
mate is found more easily when he
is not sought so hard. To quote

ticns at first has awakened to find
