Negroes of Arkansas
Demand The Ballot

sadie E. Woods, Miss Bernice Ma
bin, and John Rochelle.
One Sunday afternoon, I waited
underneath a cherry tree while Me-
gro citizens solicited funds in the
community to pay expenses of a
trip to Washington where a con-
Ference was held with ~postoffice
department. officials. 1t was dis
covered that Mrs. Sadie Woods
mad been disqualified, leaving only
two persons eligible for the office.
1t was stated that another exam
nation would be held, but in the
meantime, the receipts of the Of
flee had decreased and SO it was
necessary Ito re-classify the Of
flee. The appointment, when the
office pays less than $500, may be
made despite the fact that there
remained two Negro eligibles.
This plain and simple case Of
discrimination because of color is
regarded by an overwhelming ma
Jority of the residents of the COM
munlty as a challenge. These citi-
zens who now realize more than
ever their own impotence in poll
tics. are determined to do all that
they can to make democracy real.
Because Of their interest in and
support Of the c. N. o. program,
l have directed a campaign to
bring out the vote in the fifth con-
gressional district. The direct SUI
pervision of this campaign will be
under w. l.. Jarrett, Morrilton I'M
dertaker and well known ono vice
chairman. Every facility will be
used to publicize to the citizens of
the district and friends Of democ-
racy everywhere, this awful black
out of democracy.
The American way of express
ing choice of persons and govern
ment rests in the use of the bal
lot, and we call upon every Negro
citizen in the counties Of Pulaski,
Conway, Faulkner, Franklin, John
son Perry, Popo and Yell to pay
the 81 poll tax fee by October.
There are more than $4,000 Negro
citizens in this district, and active
interest on their part will yield
tremendous results. Today, as new
er before, we must discover the
real meaning of democracy first,
and then help to decide whether or
not it is a way of life best for all
the peoples of the world"

KEEP BOTTLE OPEN

To-day the most common ex-
preston we hear is 'bottlececks'.''
said M. J. Gomley of the Associa-
ton of American Railroads., recent
ly, "but the railroad bottle has no
neck 1t is open at both ends, pro-
viding for the free flow Of trans
portation. A '~bottleneck' IAN only
be created if We violate the main
principle of transportation - that
cars must not be loaded Until it is
known that they can be unloaded
promptly at destination"
The so-called RAILROAD failure
in the last war was due almost 100
per cent to the widespread use of
cars as warehouses. Storage and
unloading facilities were complete
ly inadequate. The result was that
cars often stood for weeks and
months, waiting for their cargoes
to be discharged. Had those cars
been unloaded. promptly, there
would have been no serious trans
portaEiOn problem in 1917 and
1918.
Today the railroads plant is in
finitely better than it was during
the last war. For almost twenty
years, the lines have been prepar-
ing and planning for precisely the
sort of emergency that exists now.
Their success is proved by the rec
ord. They have handled a steadily
growing volume of defense orders.
They have handled record-break-
ing crop movements. They have
handled their normal freight and
passenger business. They have
brought gigantic quantities of
freight to Eastern ports to be
lcadel on ships for England. And
they have done all that without the
slightest delay, car shortage OF
congestion.
The railroads., in other words,
are prepared. They will continue
to handle the nations traffic with
unexampled efficiency, so long as
cars are unloaded Immediately on
arrival and freed for service else
where. Every hour saved in dis
charging railroad cars gives i'm
| petus to the defense drive. The
railroads will do their part. and
they ask only that shippers coop
crate with them. Railroad cars are
not and cannot be warehouses. The
railroad 'bottle" must be kept
J open .

$4,000 PAROLE JOB HAS

Philadelphia, September 8. GAN
P)-Nearly everybody in Phila-

900 post soon to be filled or the
newly-created Pennsylvania board
of parole. Authorized by the last
legislature, the board will have
five members, one of whom it is
hoped and expected will be color
ed. Each will be poid $4,000, with
the chairman getting an additional
$500.
The board will be advisory to
the state board of pardons which
controls the giving Of paroles and
pardons to persons serving long
prison terms.
Very reliable information OBJ
tanned by the Associated Negro
Press Indicates that Gov. Arthur
H.. James, who will make the ap-
pointments, does not want to name
a Negro, and has not been "sold'
on the idea, but with a long-dis-
lance eye to the next elections, the
Republican organization may force
him to name a Negro. In addition,
much interest among Negro voters
has been stirred up during past
weeks.
SO far, most of the candidates
are 'politicos," who are turning
hades and heaven over to get the
"inside track" They are looking
for the job as party reward, plus
the attractiveness Of the financial
plum.

lodge of the /. B. p. o. E. w Is
now history, and this oceanside re-
sort is slowly pulling itself togeth-

held one of the biggest sessions
and parades in many years
There was little in the way of

Judge Edward w. Henry, grand

Kelley, secretary. Others who hold
high posts in the Daughter Elks
were also reelected: Mrs. Elizabeth
Gordon, grand daughter ruler;
Mrs. Buena v. Kelley, secretary.
! and Mrs. Elizabeth Kimbrough,
treasurer, of the women's group.
All signs point to very spirited

the block, and it is predicted that
from out Of nowhere, apparently,
J.. Finley, himself, will have cppo-
sition for the grand exalted ruler
ship for which election will be held
in 1912.
The reports of the treasurer
showed that the finances were in
good shape, and from new legisla-
ton enacted, it was evident that
the Elks plan to enter into a more
vigorous civil liberties program
during the next few months, for
special funds were set aside for
this department.
The parade was a feature, as
usual, and carried participants
from Boston to New Orleans and
from the Atlantic coast to the Pa
cific. Coming from the farthest-
away point was Daughter Ruler
Gladys Johnson, of Evergreen
Temple, at Seattle, Wash. The pa
rade took more time to pass a
given point than any in the last
II years, despite a delay Of one
hour and 10 minutes in getting
started. due to the delay Of the
grand exalted ruler in putting in
his appearance. Prizes were given
units from Charlestown, w. Va,
and first prize in oratory went to
John Howard Of Baltimore.
