POLE ASSURED
=. LEAGUE POST
IN DANZIG

GENEVA, Sept. 80 Q.N.S).
Removal of Sean Lester, League
Of Nations high commissioner in
Danzig, was decided on at a
secret session of the League
Council today as three trouble
spots held the spotlight.
Ethiopia appeared on the no
rizon with a hint from Halle
Selassie that he might partially
recognize 1taly's conquest and
pressure led the Spanish foreign
minister to suppress charges OF
German, italian and Portuguese
aid for the Spanish insurgents.
Removal Of Lester came as a
compromise between G erman n y
and Poland. Nazi objections to
Lester as high commissioner
were appeased and Poland was
satisfied with promises that a
Pole would be named commits
Sioner.
Foreign Minister Juan Alvarez
Del Vayo of Spain withdrew his
threat to publish documents
charging foreign aid to the in.
surgentsp but said he reserved
the right to read portions of the
indictments later in open session.
That Halle Selassie might rec
ognize the. Italian victory if per-
mitted to retain some rights was
intimated by Lorenzo TaezaS,
Ethiopian delegate. He said:
"The Emperor authorizes me
to inform you that in order to
protect human lives he is ready
to sacrifice a considerable part
- Of the rights he holds under in
ternational treaties. He counts
ON the great nations to continue
their efforts to find a solution"
The statement was interpreted
, here as meaning the Negus would
accept an italian mandate. at least
over the part of Ethiopia that
Italian troops have occupied.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Sept
30.-Col. Frank Knox, candidate
for Vice President, in an address
before the Michigan State Repub
lican convention here yesterday
said in part:
"YOu people of Michigan have
special reason for a deep interest
in the outcome of this election.
You have first of all a great
agricultural industry, with a
large production of wheat and
potatoes and fruit and vegeta-
bles. You have a great mineral
industry, with a large output Of
iron and copper and salt and oil.
And you have also a mighty
manufacturing industry, one Of
the very largest among all the
States. With a host of manufac-
tured products pouring from
your mills and factories to go to
all parts of the United States and
to all parts of the world. Your
automobile industry is one of the
economic wonders of history.
Here in Grand Rapids you have
one of the greatest furniture in
duStries in the world.
"And there is not an industry
in your State that has not Suf-
fered at the hands Of the New
Deal. Your pigs were Slaught-
cred, your wheat production cur
tailed, on what was left of your
agricultural production they put
a processing tax"
Colonel Knox charged that th'
New Deal Administration haC
prevented recovery. He said:
This Administration did

had to do. Early in its career
it was guilty Of q monumental
blunder. At the world economic
conference In London In 1888
our Government deliberately de-
strOyed all immediate prospects
Of restoring stable currencieS in
the world. This one act, sud
denly decided upon for reasons
never made clear, set back the
clock Of progress. From that
day to this the worlds trade
and the worlds currencies have
been chaotic"

that Negro?
OF the recent wars well known
by the present generation are the
Spanish American War of 1898 and
the World War of 1914-1918 in
which the Negro played his part.
The wal with Spain is replete with
valorous deeds performed by Ne
groes, such as their heroic acts in
rushing to the tops of FL Cauey
and San Juan Hill and driving the
Spaniards from their entrenched
positions, and the fame achieved by
the 9th and 10th Calvary and the
oath and 18th infantry will forever
remain in the recorded history am
ong the worlds greatest fighting
units.
In the World War or the war to
make the world safe for democracy,
the Negro played his part as usual
General Foch, Communicating Chief
of the allied forces, was skeptical
about the fighting ability of the
American Negro Possibly the lamb
like way American Negro accepts
all kinds of ~injustices heaped upon
him influenced the generals skep-
ticism. But when tn Negro troops
of the 92nd Division were given or
ders to take Argonne Forest, a sup
psedly impregnable stronghold
which had been held by the Ger
mans for three years these Negro
soldiers, from the land of the free,
rushed the German stronghold like
demons. Artillery and machine gun
fire had no effect in stopping this
successful American Negro charge.
The Germans we're terror-stricken
and many Of them threw down their
lguns and set up the cry "Kamerad."
The heroism of these Negro fight
ers could not be excelled. Many
were killed and wounded; n troop
err was hit nine times by machine
gun fire, and while being carried on
a streteher to the rear, jumped
from the stretcher and vainly tried
to get in the thick of the fight
again.

gonne Forest was told by Mrs.

WILL THE NATION DIE
OF IT'S OWN POISON?
BY X. A. Adams
(For the Literary Service Bureau)

Press dispatches carried the
story of a venomous snake which
bit Itself and an hour later died
from its own poison. This was re-
tribution because, evidently, the
RATHER was seeking the death Of
Others.
Considering the condition of our
own nation, one is Inclined to Won
der If and TO fear that It may suf-
fer the fate of the unfortunate rat
tie snake. The poisons of caste
hatred, race hatred, credits, blood
outlines and general lawlessness
are encouraged and stored up by
the nation itself Under guise of
corrective efforts. Communism and
other agencies are increasing and
intensifying these toxic elements;
and, in these lies the danger of the
nation.
Lynching began IN the south and
has spread everywhere. At first II
was said to be for rape; but now
it is practiced for every crime-and
for no crime Originally, only Ne
groes were lynched; now whites
are included. Heretofore, civil au-
thorities condemned, but of late
they condone and even commend
this awful thing.
OF late crime has Increased be-
caused of political protection, the
laws delays, judicial corruption
and weakness of our penal systems.
And the probability IS that these
poisons may become effective in
murderous strikes and bloody up
rIsings; perhaps in revolution which
viii change the fundamentals of the
nation.

HerOism of the
American Negro
BY John Mills

The next great war we come to
is what Is called the Rebellion or
Civil War of 1861-1865." In this
war, the Negro again proved his
wonderful nerve and fighting ability
byfghting blood hounds and iends
In this war It looked at the begin
ming that it was going to turn out
to be a "white mans war" but no
it could not be; the loyal Union
men could not put down the rebel
lion-they had to call upon the
strong arm of the black man. The
call was nobly responded to, and
at the close the records showed
that $4,000 Ngroes had helped to
put down the rebellion. Of this num-
Der $4,000 were slaughtered in the
battles of Port Hudson and Fort
Wagner. In this war, the Negro
was conspicuous in many battles
such as FIT. Pillow, Shiloh, Port
Hudson, Fort Wagner, Camp VIII
liams, Olustee, Brownsville, Peters
burgh, The Wilderness, In the Army
of the James, etc. These Negroes,
as well as the white veterans, gave
to their country patriotic deeds
which can be paid for These
Negroes went into the war well
knowing that their only chance of
! life was to always be victorious, for
if captured, it was sure death. They
had no "Negro prisoners" down
there. These Negores fought
for existence, for if the Rebels won,
America would have been turned
into q "hell house" The Negroes
fought with the dauntless courage
of Spartans. They had Lincoln's
great Emancipation Proclamation
before them and at last they saw a
way for themselves to be counted as
men among men. The effect on the
south may be imagined when they
passed a congressional measure
arming 200 700 Negroes, but it was
to the Union side Negroes were
focking. Governor Andrew of Mass
achusetts organized the 54th Mass
achusetts regiment and with the
28th of New York embarked for
South Carolina. Pennsylvania es-
established Camp VIM. Penn from
which several regiments took their
departure for the battle front Con-
necticut and Rhode Island sent a
regiment, and also many other
states sent Negro troops to the
front.
In 1868 the first U. S. Negro re-
giment was enrolled in South Caro-
lima. Of the bravery and patriotic
deeds performed by Negroes in this
war is unnecessary to mention fur
ther, for the history of their acts
is so well known. But, there Is an
incident of the war which many
people may not be acquainted with,
and that happened, so Horatio
Gates tells us in his book, "Inci-
dents of Shot and Shell" at the
siege of Washington, North Caro-
lima by the Rebels in March and
April 1868. The Rebels outnumber-
ed the Yankees ten to one; the Yam
KEGS fell back to the Tar River
where there was only a scow in
(which they could embark. The balls
from the rebel guns were coming
thick and fast; the scow got stuck
in the mud and somebody would
have to get in that shower of bull
let's and push the scow out into the
stream Several soldiers wre about
to perform that feat when a large
Negro servant sad "You keep still

1t was sad, indeed, the way
you had to die,
Without a chance to say
goodbye.
Your spirit flew before we
knew
That you from us had gone
If you had raised your head,
And bade us all a last fare
we'll
The blow would not have
been so hard
To those who love you so
well.
Loving and kind in all your
ways,
Upright and just to the end
of your days;
Sincere and true in your
heart and mind,
A beautiful memory you left
behind.
You had a nature we could
not help loving,
A heart that was purer than
gold,
And to those who knew you
and loved you,
Your memory will never
grow cold,
We miss you dear one.
