Detectives claim that Mrs. Pupras is the "Queen of Drug Sellers." She speaks seven languages. When the detectives disclosed their identity, it is charged. Mrs. Pupras drew a revolver from the folds of her dress and levelled it at the raiders while Cuccio threw fifty bottles containing cocaine to the yard. In a bale of raw silk were found two bottles of cocaine valued at $10,000. The police claim the silk was stolen, so Mrs. Pupras in addition to being sold as a seller and possessor of narcotics and for possessing a revolver without a permit, was held as a receiver of stolen goods. Search of the apartment, resulted in the finding of over $200 in small silver coins. While the police were engaged in their search, fourteen men sought admittance.

The part played by the two color ed men is not exactly known. INCENDIARIES BURN BARN OF PLANTER (Preston News Service) Little Rock, Ark.

We will have our inspectors follow the film to be sure that our orders concerning this picture have been fully complied with. The same procedure was adopted with this film as with all others except that a hearing was granted which has not been done in any other case."

Bailey had to be removed to the hospital for treatment. His scalp was gashed. This matter raised the ice of the race populace and the delegation waited upon Mr. Margo, who promised that justice would be given. AMERICA'S SUPER "MURDER WIT Staged by: The Ku Klux ent.

EASON INNOCENT MAN FREED; ASKS $2000 Court Discharges Man Charged With Robbery and Assault on Janitor Proves His Innocence and Wins Suit for $2,000 Against Victim. The final chapter of a story which had its inception on June 9, 1922, when James H. Taylor, janitor, 115 West 38th street, was held up by two men, beaten with a revolver and blackjack, and robbed of some money, jewelry and a police whistle, before Chief Justice Peter Schmuck of the City Court, January 3rd. Taylor's assailants in making their getaway overlooked $1300 which he had on his person and he immediately reported the robbery to the West 135th Street Detective Bureau. Efforts were immediately made to detect and apprehend the robbers, but nothing was accomplished until November 17th, when Taylor, accompanied by a policeman, identified Peter Carnegie, of No. 265 West 138th street, as one of the robbers. The policeman immediately searched Carnegie for a weapon, but nothing was found on him and he was taken to the Detective Bureau at 135th (Continued on Page 2). Extra! Extra! Subway Ride Cost Man $3.05 Charles Green's ride in the subway last week cost him ex- actly $3.05. Think of it!

Former American Leader in Universal Negro Improvement Association and Founder of Universal Negro Alliance Shot in New Orleans—The Boy Brought to Elizabeth, J. For Funeral Service Family Renee W. H. Eason, a mer leader in the Gary movement, and founder of the Universal Negro Alliance who was shot here last Monday night by one of three men who opened fire upon him as he was leaving the Bethany Baptist Church, where he had been speaking against the Universal Negro Improvement Association, died in Charity Hospital last Friday. Three bullets pierced his body; two in the back and one in the right temple. He was rushed to Charity Hos-pital, where every effort was made to save his life, but he died early on Friday morning. Death Statement Dr. Eason was unconscious most of the time that elapsed between the attack and his death. He rallied sufficiently to swear before the police authorities that two of the men who sprang out on him from an alley in which they had been laying in wait for him were Frederick Dyer, forty-two, a longshoreman, and William, Shakespeare, twenty-eight, a painter. Both men are sald to be prominent members of the Universal Negro Improvement Assn. in the city. The dying leader in his last statement declared that he had re- (Continued on Page 2).

"Got What Was Coming to Him?" Both Dyer and Shakespeare have denied the attack, but have declared that they were glad of it as they said Eason richly deserved what he got. Eason said one of them "was a sorehead. The association made him what he was. When he was expelled because of misconduct he went up and down the country preaching against Marcus Garvey who is doing great good for our race. Someone who evidently thought it was time to stop his lie took a crack at him. I long fame the one that did it richly deserved what he colored people of this city city much wrought up over the flooded manner of the assault of the former Garvey lead us assumably by a Garveyite. Harlem Shocked Hellen received the news of Dr. Eason's death with a shock of indignant horror. Anti-Garveyites and others spoke of threats of punishment that are said to have been issued against Eason and other ceasing anti-Garveyites in this try. Others pointed to the fact that the human hand threat that had been sent to A. Philip Ranph, co-editor of the Messenger, also emanated from New Orleans. The letter had been sent resumably by the Ku Klux Klan, and had ordered Randolph to cease its attacks on the Garvey movement. Dr. Eason, who was thirty-six years old, was a native of North Carolina and was graduated for the ministry from Livingston College, Salisbury, N.C. One of his former postates was the Metronolton A. M. E. Zion Church in Philadelphia. He later went to Barrick Temple the same city but finally withdrew from all connections with the body because of a disagreement caused by his removal by Blackwell to Washington, to new the orator soon made him one of the great figures in it. He contributed much to the founding of the now defunct Black Star Line. His eloquence brought in hundreds of thousands of dollars and won thousands of members for the Garvey cause. In August, The First International Convention of Negroes" he was appointed "American Leader," and again in 1900. At the last convention, following a quarrel with Garvey, he was impeached. Eason preferred counter charges but the convention decided against him and he was ousted. He then formed the Universal Negro Alliance and began to tour the country, speaking against Garvey, the U. N. I. A. and the cause of their many failures. Dr. Eason who lived in West 156th street, this city, was buried from the Union Baptist Church at Elizabeth, N. J. at 1 p.m. yesterday. He has several relatives in that city, and a sister living at 305 Putnam avenue, Brooklyn. His wife, Mrs. Hallie Eason, lives at 320 W. 139th street. Chiet Witness Against Garvey. Dr. Eason's death has deprived the federal authorities of one of their most formidable witnesses in their case against Garvey for using the mails to defraud, and which came up last Tuesday, January 9.

There is both encouragement and a strong spur for continued unremitting effort on our part in the fact, just determined, that there were 130 fewer deaths from tuberculosis in this city in 1922 than there were in 1921. Allowing for an estimated increase of our population, in the same period, of 87,879, this indicates a decline in tuberculosis mortality among us of 4 per cent. This fact applies for itself. When it is considered that tuberculosis is needless—since anything that is preventable is surely needless—it is plain that the 5,792 deaths of this kind in our city, last year, were 5,792 too many. Haitian Soldiers Now Crack Shots (Preston News Service) Port-Au-Prince, Jan. 3.—One year ago the gendarme could not hit a mark at 100 yards distance, but to-day scores of Haitians can be found who are crack marksmans. The champion shot of Haiti is Sergeant Astrale Rolland, of Jermine-dring 60 shots in strings of 10 both slow and rapid fire, in the standing, kneeling and sitting positions, scoring total of 224 out of a possible 220 in the President's match, and in the national team match he was high gun with 244 out. It is well within the range of matches that Haiti will be represented in the 300 meter international rifle match that will be shot in the United States sometime. This year. Dessalines Field, where the matches were held, saw much living of a different sort prior to 1920 American occupation, for here political prisoners and criminals condemned to death faced a firing squad. For the next ten months, if present plans materialize, it will be the training field for the team that will face the best shots of Europe and America for honors at the 300 meter range. S.S.

Y., and he therefore asked for an adjournment in order to have an opportunity to subpoena the witnesses from West Nyack to prove this alibt. Mugistrate Ryttenberg, accordingly adjourned the caso for two days and when it came up for trial before him on November 23rd, he held Carnegie in $2,000 bail to answer before the grand jury, although Miss Elizabeth Hunter, the housekeeper of the Stonehurst Estate at West Nyack, N. Y., testified positively that Carnegie had been working there from Decoration Day until June 10th and that she had seen him leave on June 10th to take the train back to West Nyack and had had it in West Nyack, the same day and night, Mr. Parrot, the owner of the estate, who was too ill to come to court, wrote a letter which was also submitted to the magistrate, corroborating this testimony. When the matter reached the District Attorney's office, it was arranged through Mr. Schwarzberg's efforts to invite Mrs. Parrot and Mr. Long, who was superintendent of the estate, attend before the grand jury when it took up the charge against Carnegie, and on December 4th they both appeared before the grand jury and testified absolutely that Carnegie was working at West Nyack, N.Y. on June 9th, and had never left the place from June 1st until June 10th. Mr. Long further testified that at the hour at which the robbery occurred on June 9th, Carnegie was working under his personal observation on the lawn of the estate at West Nyack, and as a result of this testimony, the grand jury dismissed the charges and Carnegie was released on December 6th. Having been continuously in jail from November 17th until December 6th on the false charge made against him, and having lost his position as a fireman at 36 East 33st street as a result of the arrest, Carnegie used Taylor for $2,000 in the City Court for inadmissible prosecution and false arrest and Taylor was served at his home with the papers in the action on December 14th last. Last Wednesday a jury in Trial Term Part 1 of the City Court listened to Carnegie's story and awarded him a verdict of $2,400 for his humiliation, suffering and indigitally heaped upon him through the charges made against him and on January 4th, Mr. Schwartzberg, his attorney, issued an execution to the sheriff against Taylor on account of the judgment, and expects to collect at least to the extent of the $1,300 which Taylor claimed the robbers overlooked.

Jan. 9. - While 2-500 wildly enthusiastic White and Colored citizens who packed the Second Calvary baptist Church from pit to dome are this afternoon, shouted their approval, Charles Satchell Morris Jr., played the "Jim Crow" Negro leaders, and declared: "The only person who can effect the emancipation of the Negro, is the Negro. Without his active interest all efforts of ardent friends and generous philanthropist will be ineffectual. The meeting was a splendid testimonial to the distinguished young Orator who has just returned from a sixteen tour of the far South, where more than 300,000 persons of both races accclaimed him. Speaking from "The Bright Side of a Dark Subject" he asserted: "The Negro has been taught to be merely good altogether too long. A man may be good for two things, good for nothing and good for something. A passive virtue never redeemed a race or saved a nation." A great ovation was accorded him at the conclusion of his address. Hon. P. B. Young, Editor of the Journal and Guide presided. The speaker was introduced by his father, Rev. Dr. Charles Satchell Merris formerly pastor of the Bank Street Church here. A chorus of 100 voices under the direction of Madam Mandanis Wright furnished musical selections. Mr. Morris will depart tomorrow morning for another trip to the southland. Discontent in North Growing Professor Thinks American Negroes Influenced By West Indians. New Haven, Conn., Jan. 9.—At a meeting of the American History Professors' Association here, Prof. Holland Thompson, of the College of the City of New York, declared that he is convinced that discontent among Negroes in this country is increasing. He said changed conditions had given rise to more apparent hostility to Negroes as a race north of the Mason and Dixon line than some of it. For years, he said, the Negro had been urged by certain members of his race, backed by white sympathizers, to demand all the rights of citizenship and to oppose every form of segregation and discrimination. "This advice," he continued, "had more effect in the North during the World War than in the South, and Negro populations in Northern cities had more than doubled. Large numbers of Negroes came from the West ladies, and as these latter had not been accustomed to racial discrimination, their resentment influenced the native Negroes in the cities." Professor Thompson described the increased circulation of newspapers for Negroes and the encouragement given by publications to the contentions that Negroes must resist oppression by force, if necessary. In politics, the speaker said, the Negro was beginning to vote as a Negro and not as a member of any political party. Race prejudice, he said, was increasing and not diminishing. In short, he declared, the Negro question has become a complex and national one. DR. S. A. ELIOT WILL DELIVER ADDRESS Orator at Hampton on Founder's Day Noted Unitarian Minister. Hampton, Va.

(Special to the Amsterdam News) Rosewood, Fla. Jan. 9.-Eighteen white men and four Negroes are known to be dead and many others wounded in a savage mob battle that has raged here since the evening of January 5th, following an attempt by a mob of lawless whites to take the law into their hands in the case of a colored man accused of attacking a white woman. Hearing that the accused man, Jesse Hunter, was in hiding in the village of Rosewood, whites from the neighboring towns invaded the Negro section and attempted a house to house search. They were met with a hail of bullets at the first house they came to. The inmates, recognizing the belligerency and lawless composition of the howling mob, did not wait to ask for an explanation of their visit. They opened fire and prepared to sell their lives deadly. They might not have committed any crime, but they knew a lawless mob when they saw one. Two whites were killed outright at the first shower of lead. Four others were wounded, one probably fatal, and the whites retreated to await reinforcements from the surrounding lawless elements. At this point Negroes from other houses came to the aid of their self-guided brothers, and a rude barricade was thrown up, and loopholes made for rifle fire. Negro soldiers put their knowledge and experience gained in France to use in the service of the Race and an effective defense was soon organized. The whites, reinforced, came back, 600 strong, and a battle royal developed. In spite of their reinforcement, the whites were persistently beaten back by the little determined band within the rude improvised fort. Robbed of their prey and not anxious to face the lions at bay, the most cowardly part of the white mob set itself to the safer task of destroying the undefended Negro residences and the village church and lodge buildings. In the meantime, within their improvised fort the little colored group put up a defense that will bear comparison with many of the bravest feats of the colored soldiers on Flanders Field, and forged another link in the long chain of evidence going to show that the Negro has at last decided he can fight his own battles just as bravely and as effectively as he has ever fought the battles of others. Finally, their ammunition almost exhausted, the little band decided to emulate the action of the "Guards at Cahill," and, with clubbed muskets, made a rush through the besieging forces and, breaking through, sought the refuge of the surrounding woods. The vacated house revealed the bodies of two victims of the mob, one being that of an old woman. Another colored woman, apparently forty years of age, was shot and killed on the same day not for from here. At Bronson, a few miles from here, a colored man was found on the roadway, his body riddled by bullets. On a lonely road another colored victim, a farmer, was found strung to the limb of a tree. Two Negro women were attacked and raped between Rosewood and Spencer. The sexual lust of the brutal white mobbists satisfied, the women were strangled. An older colored woman was severely maltreated on the same stretch of road and forced to submit herself to the most shameful sexual degradation. Race feeling is running high as a result of these actual attacks on colored women and the alleged attack on a white woman. Negro farmers have armed themselves with rifles and shotguns and are grimly determined to pro-tect their women and sell their lives nearly if it comes to that. The situation LUCKY STRIKE CIGARETTE It's toasted 12"s may culminate in violent race warfare worse than the terrible night at Rowwood. Two Negroes have been arrested on suspicion of the alleged attack on a white woman and taken to Bronson, the county seat of Levy County. A white mob is reported to be on its way to lynch the two suspects on "general principles." Late this afternoon the Negroes of this village returned from their refuge in the woods and, entering one of the few buildings left standing, barricaded themselves in and prepared to meet another siege. A council of war was held and the sentiment expressed that they would endeavor to sell their lives as deadly as possible—"dying BUT FIGHTING BACK." The whites are said to be gending out calls for further reinforcements before daring to attack again. Plans are under consideration to sneak up and set fire to the building and then "shoot the niggers down as they run out." Among the whites already killed were several prominent men coming from the "best white families of the South," who are said to have acted as inciters and leaders of the mob. Must Stay in Jail Until Year 2001 (Preston News Service) Birmingham, Ala., Jan. 8. Henderson Poppins, of Mobile, who has served 45 years in the Alabama State prison, declined to accept a parole which Governor Kirby has indicated he will issue at any time. Poppins expresses no desire to receive the parole. He claims that he has lost all touch with outside world. His home, his friends, his all are prisoners with him in the Wetumpka penteminary and intends to die a ward of the state. Poppins is too and do manual labor and will spend the remainder of his days at old jobs about the prison. He was convicted of a statutory offense in Mobile, January 26, 1875, and given a life sentence. He served until May 27, 1898, when he was granted a full pardon. He located in Elmore county where he was convicted of the same offense again November 7, 1902, and given 99 years. Records of the convict department show that he must serve until November 7, 2001, because of his previous conviction he would not be entitled to any time for good behavior. Indications are that Poppins does not know his age. If his statement, regarding it is correct he is now 90 years old. When he was sentenced the second time he gave his age as 70 and he has been in prison on the second offense for twenty years. Woman Shoots Man; He Cuts Her (Preston News Service) Brownsville, Pa., Jan. 9.—Three ambulances were required to take Mrs. Luella Wade, aged 26 years, suffering from knife wounds, and Duncan Allen, aged 35 years, suffering from a gunshot wound, to the General Hospital here last Friday night, from Maxwell, a mining town near here. Both are said to be in a critical condition. According to reports, Allen and Mrs. Wade, a widow, had a quarrel last Saturday night. Allen returned from Pittsburgh on Friday night, and, it is said, while passing the Wade home, Mrs. Wade pointed a revolver at him. A peacemaker appeared on the scene and attempted to take the weapon from the woman. Reaching around the peacemaker, Mrs. Wade, it is alleged, fired a shot at Allen, the bullet lodging in his right lung. Times were too hot for the peacemaker and he disappeared, and Allen, according to the police, drew a knife from his pocket and severely cut the woman on the neck, arms, chest, back and legs. After the cutting Allen is said to have fallen unconscious to the street. The ambulance from the Brownsville hospital was called and while returning to the hospital broke down. A second machine was summoned and was stuck in the mud. The third machine made the trip to the hospital.

ANAMA JOE GANS AGAIN VICTO IOUS AT THE COMMONWEALTH Master of the Situation During Course of Twelve Round Bout—Ponteau Wins in the Semi-Final Event Last Week. Another fine house turned out at the Commonwealth Sporting Club on last Saturday night to witness the bouts offered by Rod and Jess McMahon at the now popular Harlem resort. The star attraction, which brought together Panama Joe Gans and Andy Palmer, had much to do in inducing many colored Harlemites to make the trip to the club, and, figuring they would make the evening a perfect life, at least for the colored fans, the owners of the place put on by Ponteau and Maxey Green the semi-final. ST. CHRISTOPHER BANS BOXERS Made at the Parish House Into Good Amateurs, Too Many Turn Professional, They Say We learned the other day that the St. Christopher Club of St. Philips' Parish will not cater to the boxers any longer, for, according to those in a position to know, no sooner than the boxers turn out to Master of the situation from the start of the fight, "Panama Joe" had handily from Palmer, the frides decision being received with a great amount of applause. From the first tan of the gong it could be seen that the colored, lad did not have to worry over the result in spite of the willingness with which his white opponent opened hostilities. There were no sensational moments, at least none that we would call such, during this contest, but Palmer showed himself more willing to mix it than Marty Cross, who fought Gans at the same club not very long ago. Montague's showing against Green disappointing, although he won the decision at the end of the investigation at the conclu- sign of this contest gave the writer an opportunity to learn that Pontan had hurt his left hand early in the contest. Butted over the right eye, a deep gash was opened in Pontan's right eye, which worried him as the fight progressed, but he had the satisfaction by closing for the night the left eye of Green, who worked to good advantage at close queters. Pontan is strong and carries a wrench, but he is still devoid of the inner points of the game. Close assistance with such assistance could help in the finesse ofashing to that of a popular milt artist. This was his second fight in eight months and in these days when a fighter is forced to lay off so long it certainly militates against him. Johnson Expects to Fight Introduced at The Commonwealth. Former Champion Says He Will Start in New Jersey Former world's heavyweight champion John Arthur Johnson was shown some consideration at the Commonwealth Sporting Club last Saturday night while a spectator at the halls offered fans for the evening's entertainment when he was called from his seat and introduced to the crowd. Jack was well received and in his usual winning way held the attention of the crowd long enough to announce that he will start in the Spring in New Jersey. As stated in these columns last week, we see no reason why Johnson-is not given a chance to show his wares at this time, in spite of the fact that many insist he has transgressed on the unwritten laws of the white man. Of course, we personally believe that it was left to Jack to redeem himself in certain quarters and could have been in a better position to demand recognition had he followed certain rules which we sought to lay down for him. before he returned here from Leavenworth. We believe that he could show up the present crop of heavyweights seeking a chance with blemps, going so far as to be almost convinced that he could take the present champion over a hard road if they were matched. And another country that for which Space was hounded would not have created a ripple, but we are in America and must diplomatically work in the face of facts which will not be denied.

CHRISTOPHER BANS BOXERS Made at the Parish House Into Good Amateurs, Too Many Turn Profes-sional, They Say We learned the other day that the St. Christopher Club of St. Philip's Parish will not cater to the boxers any longer, for, according to those in a position to know no sooner than the boys turn out to be topnotchers in the amateur ranks than they bid good-bye to the place that has developed so many athletes and join the professional ranks. St. Christopher Club is not at all exercised over the decision of the milt pushers to seek other fields of conquest after acquiring their knowledge of the game at the parish gym, but, it is said, they are somewhat tired of outfitting men to represent them in amateur circles only to see them "going for the money" after annexing the titles. Many are there who would blame the big colored club for the stand recently taken, but, looking at the matter from every angle, they cannot be blamed, as it is their intention to remain as an amateur organization and the development of champions means continued representation for the club. From now on the activities of those in control at the club will be centered in developing the youngsters in the other branches in which they are engaged. Tricky Sam From Alabam' Was Handed Such an Awful Slam They Say He's but Another Ham We are willing to wager that "Tricky Sam" from Alabama" who crawled through the ropes at the 18th infantry to face Larry Estride last week. knew absolutely nothing of that murderous left which Larry totes with so much ease and which he can cling into an opponent so fast many think it a human trip-hammer. Sam honestly believed, up until they brought him to in his corner, that he carried enough tricks to hypnotize Larry, not knowing that Estridge has fallen into the bad habit of knocking them cold in as short a period of time as possible, looking peril in the house as he squared off and lingered at Estridge, but instead of turning Larry's right milk, loose and flying for his very life from the left, the so-called tricky person was belted so hard with that south wing he went out after a few minutes in the very first round. Estridge is going to be given a chance at the Commonwealth in the near future and if he "carries on" down there in the same manner as at the 15th, he is due to gaze on the golden dough-bag from which Panama Joe Gans, Norfolk and the rest of the good fighters draw theirs from time to time. In the semi-final to the Estridge-Sam bout Young McVey won the decision over Mike Carrier in a hard bout which found the white boy constantly jabbing the colored fighter to keep him from swinging those hard rights and left to his mid-section. Bliven Managing Jackson Tommy Now Under the Guidance of One Who Knows the Game and Who Will Bring Him Out Tommy Jackson and his new manager blew in a few days ago to give us an careful anent the plans of the crack little fighter who has been making things interesting for his opponents down at the 15th infantry every once in a while. Tommy is a modest little chap and we have seen him make good time after time when the battle appeared to be going against him. Ben Bliven, who in his time has managed some of the best fighters, has taken Tommy under his wing and will guide the popular Harlem fighter in the future. His first fight under his new manager will be on the 16th at the 15th when he goes against Battling Powell. Bliven believes that Jackson has all the qualities that go to make a champion, which includes, speed, cleverness, a punch and brain work. In his twenty-five years in the boxing game Bliven was not a mere fighter about the skills of fighter but he was about Tommy when he saw him boxing at Grupp's gymnasium last week. Bliven believes he has a second Joe Gans in Jackson and will take him along hoping to develop him and make him worthy of being compared with the "Old Master." --- The Sportive Spotlight Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, The basketball team of this detachment desires to arrange games, as far as possible, with the several leading athletic teams of New York and New Jersey. We have noticed that the New York Amsterdam Devotes several of its columns to this sort of sport, and feel sure that it will likely be able to supply us with the names and addresses of the different managers or correspondents of these teams. Thanking you in advance for this favor, I am, I am only too glad to inform you gentlemen, that communications addressed to the following clubs, care of the sporting department, will reach them: Alpha Physical Culture Club, St. Christopher Athletic Club, Spartan Field Club, St. Mark's Catholic Club, Borough Athletic Club, Defender New York Five, Oriental Athletic Club, Commonwealth Big Five. The New Jersey clubs are: Titan Athletic Club, Dunbar Physical Culture Club and the Vandal Athletic Club. In the early days of the game we had a detachment from the colored regiment then stationed at West Point to come here and do battle to one of our teams. Through the good work of Mr. Henry Creamer and others, the entire band was allowed to accompany the team, the musicians at the time being under Jack Thomas, now successfully conducting a band in Baltimore. Those were the good old days. That was quite some story anent Paul Robeson's entrance into the ring to work his way up to a battle with Harry Wills which appeared one day last week in the Eventing Mail. However, we fear that "Tiny" will confine his efforts to the basketball court as a member of the famous Commonwealth Five. One who has gone as far as Robeson did in college will not readily hearken unto the call of the roped arena, for he is intelligent enough to realize that his chances for serving his race as a lawyer are far better than through the medium of the roped arena. And we are not saying this with any attempt to reflect on boxing, but tell me, good friends, would a college graduate after looking the situation over be satisfied to "mark time" while waiting for a chance to get a whack at such as Jack Dempsey? Everything being a physically between Robeson and Dempsey—if "Tiny" ever reached the top—he would still tower above the white bruiser from an intellectual standpoint, yet he would be denied his chance simply because he is a colored man. Reading over an account of the games played at the Eastern Girls' Championship Tournament, I was indeed surprised when the Academy Sonsors were referred to as an all-star team. I would be very glad if the writer of that article could inform me just who were the girls playing that night on the Academy Senior team who were recognized as members of various teams operating this season, and the names of the teams they belonged to. Being a subscriber to this paper, I was under the impression that it receives its information from reliable sources, hence my surprise on reading what I know to be an untruth. I think the writer would have come nearer the mark if he had been surprised at Mr. Justice for staging a game between two teams of such unequal weight the "V" team being by far the heavier. Would you be kind enough to answer this letter through the columns of the Amsterdam News or if not, to me personally. A Bronx Subscriber. The young lady informs me that she was under the impression that we received our information from reliable sources yet she failed to remember that there are times when the best chroniclers of news are misinformed. However, the source from whence came the matter which has occasioned this letter will again be tapped and if it is the last thing we do we will see that Justice is done Miss Cunningham in the case of Justice's activities in basketball. We shall ask the writer of the article which you say is not true to explain in our next issue. Please do not think that ALL SOURCES from which we receive our news are unreliable because it MIGHT have been thusly in this case. We notice that the St. Mark's Catholic Club five playing in the Catholic League moved up into third place last week. This is as it should be, boys, and we hope that you will reach the top. Under the able guidance of the good and kindly Father Plunkitt, the St. Mark's boys continue to play a clean game and we crave for them the consideration of all the other teams playing amateur basketball. They are desirous of staging games at St. Mark's Hall every Thursday night and we do not see why Alpha, Spartan and St. Christopher, to say nothing of the Titans Boroughs and other clubs, should not come over here to play these boys. Get in touch with Father Plunkitt, fellows, and you will have a number of good games at St. Mark's Hall before enthusiastic gatherings. It is better to appear before from six to eight hundred people at St. Mark's Hall than at the big casinos. "Cum" Possey is having a fit. "Cum" is cutting up all kinds of didoes because the Commonwealth dropped a few games and he calls upon high heaven to witness the fact that the Commonwealth are not worthy of being called champs. Simply because "Cum" is fully cognizant of the fact that at last he is challenged by a real combination that threatens to upset Leondi. Instead of using up the columns of the Pittsburgh Courier he ought to come from under and meet the Commonwealth and let us see if Leondi can turn the trick. This is one time we will not be satisfied until we see these two teams locked in mortal combat. Speaking of the Commonwealth reminds us that we had a new words to say about Jess and Rod McMahon. A long time ago when it appeared as if the powers that be in boxing would allow the colored boys a chance to exchange wallops with the white boys, they told the writer they would give our boys a chance and put them in as often as possible. How have they lived up to this promise? Nobly. We have had a number of colored fighters putting on their wares for us at the Commonwealth and every time you suggest the name of some colored boy the owners of the club inform you that they had already planned to use him. This is really keeping faith with the colored people and this is one of the reasons why you should not hesitate to support the Commonwealth Basketball Five every Sunday night. How many colored boys are appearing at Madison Square Garden? A number of them are training down there and in spite of the many opportunities at this big club as the color ban is still in existence. If we support the efforts of the McMahons in other apheres of their activities, it is natural that they will give even more of our boys a chance at their club. It is human nature to expect that those who are with you should receive your undivided support. They tell me that the "Strangler" will no longer be the directing genius behind the Commonwealth Five. Frank will continue as a member of the combination but he has been shorn of his powers. There will be much said pro and con about the benchning of this member of the Commonwealth and the fact that the capactiny of the team has been taken away from him, but considering we did much to bring the "Strangler" before the public, we feel at liberty to believe that he still considers us his friend. Regardless of anything else that might have prompted the McMahons to take this move, we firmly believe that our boy lost sight of the fact that a real basketball player in the position that he held must not only play the game on the court but off the court as well. Frank is a good player. Truth to tell he made himself a name in the game by the short time he took in coming to the fore, but none will NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WED., JANUARY 10, 1923 ist Aga Spotlight U. G. M. A.

Had he been diplomatic he would have recognized the public's demand for other men to take the court when he himself insisted on staying in the line up. No matter what he thought personally it would have been a diplomatic stroke on his part to send his men to the fore and then if those for whom they called loudest fell down, the public would have been satisfied with anything he did after that. We did not go to the games when they first started and felt inclined to believe there was a clique behind the insistent calls for Monde. in justice to both Leon and the "Strangler" we made it our business to come forth from our retreat and start a secret investigation. In the meantime we informed the "Strangler" that as long as the owners of the club stood behind him he should go ahead and do as he saw fit. But it did not take us a long time to see where the trouble was and this is what "Strangler" failed to see. The people really wanted to see Monde in action. At Manhattan Casino they were very much disappointed when Hubbard was "pulled" and "Strangler" remained in the line up. As stated before if Frank played the game off the court as well as on he would have stepped back and played the game from the side lines, for by so doing he had nothing to lose and much more to gain, for the public would have thought him one of the biggest men of the game. It is natural that they would have applauded him for apparently making way for his boys and BOWING TO THEIR DEMAND. This is a professional outfit and not an amateur aggregation and no man is big enough in professionalism to refuse to heed the calls of an insistent public, for with them it is business first. The next month or so will tell whether it is a wise move on the part of the owners or not in placing the "Strangler" on the bench. If the team should fall by the wayside you cannot deny Frank the right to hand out the "I Told You So" stuff and if the boys should go out and decisively cop their victories he can but opine that it is for the best. Rivals of yesteryear and rivals to be until they both withdraw from their athletic activities, the St. Christopher Club of St. Philip's Parish and the Alpha Physical Culture Club will send their basketball teams to New Star Casino on Friday night, January 29th, to again engage in battle for the leadership of an amateur basketball teams in New York City. Any defeats suffered by these two rivals at the hands of other clubs are always discounted by the large following bent on rooting for their respective clubs among the big fellows in the immediate vicinity, hence we are not going "beyond the bounds of reason" to say that in basketball we can look upon the meeting of these clubs as the white folks do upon the annual clash of Yalo and Harvard.

But through it all Alpha should in time to come steer her way into the port of successful women. And strong men are satisfied to take cognizance of the trend of the times and take the tide that leads to prosperity. That we have reason to believe that such will eventually come to pass is seen in the recent election held at the club last Wednesday evening. All the officers have been returned to their various offices, which is a vote of confidence which each and every one of these men are deserving of and will continue ably, we are concerned with the presidency, as much depends on the man selected to fill the chair, for much depends on him for the LAURA & HARRY 131 W. 136th St, N.

Welcomes Hayes After He Won Stamp of Approval on European Tour Commanded to Appear Before the Royal Family, the Famous Colored Singer Receives High Mark of Appreciation From King. As was to be expected, America has just waked up to realization that, another of her black sons stands in the very front of temors produced in this country, black or white, and now he is being given the recognition which it is doubtful would have been his did he not find favor at the hands of royalty on the other side. Following his successful European tour, the celebrated tenor appeared in song recital at Symphony Hall, Boston, Mass., last Sunday evening before a large and appreciative audience. The royal warrior at the invitation of the management of Symphony Hall and their management. This is first time that this or any similar organization of this kind has honored a colored artist in this manner. Mr. Hayes has had a very remarkable and successful career in Europe where he was commanded to appear before the Royal family at Buckingham Palace. The King was so pleased with the numer-rendered by the brilliant colored American he presented him with a diamond stick-pin. Mr. Hayes, with return to Europe immediately to fill engagements in Paris and London, it is rumored that other organizations similar to that at Symphony Hall are negotiating with him to appear in recitals upon his return to this country. CROOK FIGHTS TO SAVE A PRINCESS Fancy a crook fighting for a princess! You don't have to fancy, it though. You can see it if you go to see The Fate in the Fox at the Lincoln theatre this week. Donel Barrymore, playing the part Boston Blackie Dawson, is theok, and his princess, the Grand Achess Tatiana of Russia, is the real life beautiful Seema Owen. Seldom has Mr. Barrymore had more advantageous opportunity for the display of his distillations. In this movie he depicts the change of a crook into a procter, clerk and back into a crook again—but this time he is not a crook for the crook's sake but a crook for a woman's sake. It is the only way in which Boston Blackie can save the life of the Grand Achess Tatiana. Jack Boyle, author of this story, which appeared in Cosmopolitan Magazine, has made artistic and effective use of story opportunity to stir the emotions. He throws tuftains and nibbles together, mixes blue blood and red, shows where Bolsheviks and the United States Government stand, and he doesn't leave out love. "The Face in the Fog" is a first-class production. Nothing of the sort is likely to be seen here again for many weeks. No one who likes a rattling good picture will mass seeing it. Stage Play Screened Without Single Change "The Sign on the Door," Norma Talmage's latest Associated First National starring vehicle, which will be the attraction at the Franklin Theatre commencing today, is said to enjoy the unique distinction of being perhaps the first version of a stage play which has ever gone to the screen without a change. Director Herbert Brenon, it is declared, followed Channing Pollock's stage play, scene for scene and situation for situation. It is also interesting to note that for month's story of "The Sign on the Door" was in the scenario department of one of the foremost film companies, and was returned to Mr. Pollock with a note that it was not suited for screen production. However, when the play had been successfully produced on Broadway, New York, a representative of the above-mentioned company, along with many others, tried desperately to obtain the film rights, but Joseph M. Schenck, had already grabbed the prize. CRACK FLASHES DIVIDE GAMES The St. Marks Flashes divided their weekly scheduled games of the Catholic League, losing a heartbreaker to the Ascension Mystics, 26-23, and winning from the pacemakers, the Century, 27-23. Though losing to the Ascension, the Flashes played the fastest and displayed their best game. Their downfall was due to loose guarding in the last four minutes, in which the Mystics scored three long shots, overcoming a lead which the blazes had held throughout. The Century "Cassays" received a jolt when they found the pace of the Flashes so fast that they never could catch up. Yates and Saitch were the high- Vaudeville and Motion Pictures d Hayes After He Won al on European Tour before the Royal Family, the er Receives High Mark on From King. point scorers in both contests, with Nethrop, Freeman and Dunbar doing excellent work work. The Flashes have begun to master the fundamentals of professional basketball and are now considered as one of the most dangerous team in the League. Ye Mighty Monarchs Will Hold Forth at Madison Square Garden in 17th Annual Reception and Dance The real big event of the present season is slated for Madison Square Garden on the night of February 1st when Monarch Lodge No. 15 leads all Harlem to the place presided over by Tex Rickard for the 17th annual dance and reception. Ye Mighty Monarchs are known far and near and they usually come out big in everything they need to surpass anything they have so far attempted and present indications point to a mighty throng; when the boys get startled. Among those responsible for what will be one of the biggest nights ever enjoyed in this or any other city, can be found such particular boys on the dring line as O'Savior Boatrie, Chauney Hump, Walter Scarey, Buck Terry and Freddie Brown. Ye Mi-Tee boys are going over the top with a bang and they are going to carry one of the largest crowds they ever entertained. The famous Monarch Band under the leadership of the invincible Fred W. Simpson, will tarnish the music. *Perth Amboy Wins Again Commonwealth Boys Bow to Crack New Jersey Players in Harlem Sunday Night Another splendid crowd turned out to the Commonwealth Casino last Sunday evening to witness the big game between the Commonwealth and that crack aggregation from Perth Amboy, known as the "Perth Five." Cutting off the H on the end of their name, we would say that their players acted rather pert at the Casino, when they again won from our boys on their own home court, by the score of 29-24. These two teams are really batting to find out before the season ends which one is really superior to the other, for tonight the New York boys will make the trip to Perth Amboy to meet their conquestors in a quick return game. Some weeks ago the Perths came here and won from the Commonwealth, the latter team going to New Jersey and evening the matter by defeating the Perths on the latter's stamping grounds. Last Sunday night's game probed the class of the white players, for even with the coming of "Speak" Moton they refused to take alarm and wont after our local players with everything. That the Mr. Mahon boys will have to bring them back in the near future is a foregone conclusion, for any team that can defeat the Commonwealth on their home grounds will always draw a crowd. This Sunday night the local team will play a return date with the Brook Collegegns, the team that came near to winning from them at Manhattan Casino New Year's Day, in the preliminary game, the Spartan Hornets will face the fast-going Buffaloes.

We speak of "Monsieur Specks Moton, who received his full share of recognition at our hands while he was a member of St. Mark's team and which kept him to the front, making his services something for Posey to wish away for. But, look you, four readers, as a member of the Loenault quintet, Posey fold the world that he had the best pick of the season in Moton, and now, with basketball just getting into her stride, his best pick returns to his old home town to play with the local professional five. We tried to tell "Cum" to be good and play the Commonwealth, but he has been hemming and hawking and refusing to answer telegrams, special deliveries, night letters and special couriers. Now he has lost Moton, and if he doesn't look out, we'll go and take most any man off his team and leave him on the rocks. If you are going to play real basketball, Mr. Posey, say so and say it quick when you do hit this burgh. You will arrive with but a shell of the old tarts and we hat to defeat cripples in these diggings. All Hail the Senator! "Senator" Chrence Younger is again telling the world that he never believed in race suicide, and that was the reason he followed Teddy Roosevelt when the late statesman held the center of the spotlight. A new one came to bless Mr. and Mrs. Younger on Sunday evening, a boy, who, they tell us, hollered "time out" when he sat his daddy after the "senator" had returned from the Commonwealth, where he was a spectator when the local team lost to New Jersey.

By Carrie Alberta Lyford Hampton, Va. Jan. 19—Twenty-one colored women, representing twenty-one schools in eleven States, recently spent three weeks in conference at Hampton Institute where they studied problems connected with the care of young people in boarding schools. In this group there were three deans of women, eight matrons of girls' dormitories, one preceptress of a boys' dormitory, five matrons of boarding departments, one laundry matron, and three assistant matrons. The subjects of the conference covered entire range of the responsibilities of the matron in educational institutions. The central thought of the Hampton Institute conference was the physical, mental, moral, and social development of the student and the part that dormitory life plays in this development. Dormitory management was considered from a business standpoint. Conference Personnel. The conference members present included Mrs. R. F.

December 27th to 31st, inclusive. The opening session of the Convention was held Wednesday afternoon, at 2:30 o'clock, at the St. Louis Headquarters, Pine Street Branch Y.M.C.A., with over three hundred college men as delegates and visiting members of the Fraternity from the various colleges and universities in America, stretching from Harvard, Boston University, and Yale, on the New England coast, to the University of California, on the Pacific coast, and from the Universities of Michigan and Minnesota on the Great Lakes to Atlanta University and Morehouse College in the South. The business of the Convention was successfully handled under the direction of the national officers of the Fraternity: Simeon S. Booker, president; Dr. J. H. Hilburn, first vice-president; Raymond P. Alexander, second vice-president; Norman L. McGhee, secretary; Dr. Homer Cooper, treasurer, and Carl J. Murphy, editor of the official organ, The Sphinx. Report of Officers. At the Friday afternoon session, the national officers of the fraternity made their yearly reports. The national president, Simeon S. Booker, reported that the fraternity had made great progress during the year especially in the results from the annual "Go to School, Go to College" campaign and in the increasingly important place which the organization is taking in collegiate life. It was noted from the report of the national secretary, Norman L. McMee, that during the past year chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha have been established at the University of California, Berkeley, Calif.; the State University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa; the State College of Iowa, Iowa, Ames, Iowa; the University of Denver, Denver, Colo.; Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass.; Springfield College, Springfield, Mass.; Northwestern University, Evanson, Ill.; and a graduate chapter at Indianapolis, Ind.; which added to the chapter roll of 36 as reported at the last convention makes a total chapter roll of 44 with a membership of over 2,500. Of these 44 chapters, 36 were represented at St. Louis at the 15th annual convention. Pilgrimage to Lovejoy's Monument. The Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity in keeping with its idea of keeping ever before its members the deeds of those characters of American history whose lives offer inspiration and encouragement for the problems which they must face in America made a pilgrimage this year to Alton, Ill., to the spot where there is erected a monument to Rev. E. P. Lovejoy, the noted abolitionist who gave his life in defense of freedom. A wreath was placed on the monument by the fraternity and brief exercises were held. Perhaps the best public impression of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity was received at the public session which was held in the Poro College Auditorium on Sunday afternoon, December 31st. The seriousness of the program and plans of the fraternity were effectively presented to the public by Raymond P. Alexander, Vice-President of the fraternity in his discussion of the subject: "Alpha Phi Alpha's Task." Mr. Aaron E. Malone, president of the Poro College and an honorary member of the Alpha Phi Alpha, spoke. Next Meeting in Columbus. The final session of the convention was held Saturday afternoon at which time action was taken respecting the plans to push the annual "Go to High School, Go to College" movement in every State of the Union. After a spirited campaign on the part of the delegates from the six chapters located in the State of Ohio, who urged that Columbus, Ohio, he selected, the convention decided in their favor despite the enticing blids of the delegates from New York and Detroit. Officers Elected for 1923. At the end of the final session, the following officers were elected to guide the Alpha Phi Alpans through the year 1923: Simeon S. Booker, Baltimore, Md., President; Raymond P. Alexander, Boston, Mass., 1st Vice-President; R. W. Cannon, Minneapolis, Minn., 21 Vice-President; Norman L. McGhee, Washington, D. C., Secretary; Homer Cooper, Chicago, Ill.; Treasurer; Oscar C. Brown, Indianapolis, Ind., editor of the Official Organ, the Sphinx. On account of the remarkable growth of the Alpha Phi Alpha in the far west, it was decided to add an additional vice-president to have charge of that section and James W. McGregor, of Los Angeles, Calif., was selected for that office. Pioneers Present.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WED., JANUARY 10. 1925 THE "PROPHET ISAIAH" Washington, Jan. 6 (Crusader Service).—The "Prophet Isaiah," in the person of Isiah Minor of Kansas City, called at the White House today to warn President Harding that war with Japan was imminent. He said he had divine revelations. He left in a chariot, like the prophets of old, but in a chariot with barred windows and a clanging bell. The prophet carried a membership card of a certain organization and wore a uniform. An ornate sword hung from his waist. Over his uniform hung a dazzling cloak, embroidered with stars, crescents and mysterious occult signs. N.A.A.C.P. Elects Officers for 1923 Campaign for Anti-Lynching Legislation Outlined at Annual Meeting. The necessity of keeping "intensely alive the sense of radical vigilance and the conviction that the future depends upon the realization by the race of what it is justly entitled to and a determination to obtain it were dominating notes at the Annual Meeting of the N. A. A. C. P., held in New York City on Tuesday, January 2. The afternoon business session was held at the Russell Sage Foundation Building and was largely attended by members and friends of the Association as well as by a large number of representatives from branches in Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, the District of Columbia and other states. At this meeting the annual reports of the officers were read tearing of the fight made by the Association for the passage of the Dyer Bill and the unceasing campaign against mob law and the Ku Klux Klan, the carrying of the Arkansas cases to the United States Supreme Court, the fight against peonage and in civil rights and extradition cases, as well as in other fields for the securing to and safeguarding of the rights of citizenship to the American Negro. An interesting feature of the meeting was the recital by representatives of branches of the splendid fights being made in various parts of the country against encroachment of race prejudice. At this meeting Executive Officers as follows were elected for the year 1923: James Weldon Johnson, Secretary; Walter F. White, Assistant Secretary; Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Director of Publications and Research; Robert W. Bagnall, Director of Branches; William Pickens and Aaddle W. Hunton, Field Secretaries and J. E. Spingarn, Treasurer. The following persons were elected as members of the National Board of Directors: Jane Adams, Chicago, Ill.; Dr. Charles E. Bentley, Chicago, Ill.; Rev. Hutchens C. Bishop, New York City; Hon. Arthur Capper, Topeka, Kansas; Rebert R. Church Memphis, Tenn.; Dr. W. E. B. Dubois, New York City; Mrs. Florence Kelley, New York City; Hon. Charles Nagel, St. Louis, Mo.; Mary White Ovlington, New York City; Harry H. Pace, New York City; Charles Edward Russell, Washington, D. C.; Herbert K. Stockton, New York City and Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, Buffalo, New York TOWN HALL MEETING. The evening mass meeting, one of the most successful ever held by the Association, was at the Town Hall in 43rd Street. The speakers at this meeting were Mr Dan Kelly, a white Texan who recently investigated for the Association the burning at the stake of three men in Texas; Mrs. Mary B Talbert, former President of the National Association of Colored Women and National Director of the Anti-Lynching Crusaders, who told in most interesting fashion of the campaign and determination of this splendid group of women; James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., who outfitted the program of the Association for a renewed fight against lynching; and for Federal legislation against that crime; and Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of the Free Synagogue. Dr. Wise said in part: "Nothing in the past years is more discreditable to Americans—and there are other things—nothing is more discreditable to Americans as a people than the successful stand of the Southern bloc of Senators against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, or the pusillanimity of the administration in yielding to its pressure. If unpunished lynching is to be the condition of loyalty to the Democratic Party on the part of the electorate of the Lincoln Honored At Hampton Inst. J. M. Pollard of Community Service Speaks on Man- Making. Hampton, Va., Jan. 9.-Professor J. M. Pollard, of Community Service, Incorporated, an honor graduate of the University of Chicago, who for eleven years served as director of the academic department at the St. Paul Normal and Industrial School, Lawrenceville, Va., delivered the Emancipation Day oration, on "Man-making." in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, before 2,000 colored men, women and children, in celebration of the sixtieth anniversary of President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation and under the auspices of the local Emancipation Committee, of which Dr. J. T. Lattimore, of Hampton, is chairman. Solomon H. Thompson, of Kansas City, Mo., a Hampton Institute student, in his address on "Steps in Negro Progress," referred to the success which colored farmers have achieved as an indication of the race's determination to keep on improving and to make for itself a place among other races. Pearl E. Howe, a Sloux Indian girl from Fort Thompson, S. D., in her address on "Education for Citizenship," told the story of the Indians' conversion to white men's ideas of education for citizenship and service. She referred to the common struggles of Negroes and Indians for better education. South, then the Democratic Party has ceased to be an instrumentality of government and is become the unblushing defender of mob violence, and in so far as only a little more contemptible and despicable than the Republican Party which rarely has the courage of its dopravity and which in this case had not the courage to risk incurring the ill will of the Southern voters whom it hopes to cajole by silent assent to a lynching policy. NOT A NEGRO QUESTION. "Lynching is not a Negro question; it is an American problem." Lynching is the more an American problem because lynchers are always white men and because the lynchod are nearly always colored men. Lynching means that the law and its due process break down when the provocation seems sufficiently grievous to its violators. Lynching means that the unchanging, inviolable law—to paraphrase the term of Euripides of the democracy is set aside, for the most part, with impunity when mobs decree that it shall be. "I come to you tonight as a Jew and a Jewish teacher because I know as few men have had cause to know, how injustice hurts, how it galls and how long continued oppression may degrade. I know without uttering a word of bitterness or of hatred, for I feel none against my oppressors and my people's oppressors—my chief business in life is to move my people to stand erect, to lift their voices to the skies, and to know that no matter what the world without may do to them they must keep their souls undefiled. We stand with you we will support you, we will fight you, lawfully in the American way not in the lawless way of tus lyncher; we will fight with you as men and women until this shame shall have been ended, until lynching shall forever have passed from the vocabulary and the life of the American people." At this meeting announcement was made of the receipt of a check for $1,000 sent by Mr. Phillip G. Peabody of Boston as his contribution to the work of the Association. Clara Phillips Has Nothing on Grant The "Human Eel" Escapes From Prison in Georgia. Statesboro, Ga., Jan. 8—Clara Philips, the hammer murderess of California, has nothing on "Sug" Grant, of Georgia, when it comes to making a complete getaway from modern bastles. Maybe "an angel rolled away the stone" or maybe Grant tried to imitate Samson of old. Anyway, the Georgia officials will not know just how it happened until they capture the elusive Grant. According to reports, they have YORK their doubts about catching Grant, as they have already termed him a "human eel." It is cold that Grant was put in fail during the night. Officials claim that Grant did not wait until night to do his "eel act." He selected 2 o'clock in the afternoon—probably the busiest time of the day. The failer, commenting on the getaway of Grant, said: "Others have sawed the bars, picked their way through the brick walls and others have made their dash for liberty just as they reached the jail door, but Grant is the first to actually pull the iron pins out of the big hinges of the heavy iron door and deliberately lay the door to one side, the latter being found leaning up against the wall of the jail and the former were found upon the top of the cell where they had been thrown. After getting out of jail, Grant was seen by several, but he did not tarry. This is without question, the most remarkable escape known to the annals of jail history." It is thought that Grant has made his way to some northern state, where he hopes to evade the Georgia officials. He is a man of ordinary build and not regarded as a prodigy of unusual strength. Omega Psi Phi Holds Conclave Washington, D. C., 9-The Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, which holds the unique distinction of having been the first Greek later fraternity organized in a colored institution of learning, held its eleventh annual convention at Philadelphia, Pa., recently. In many respects this session was the greatest in the history of the organization. Official and unofficial delegates from the twenty-eight chapters of the fraternity representing every section of the country brought a message of an awakening among our group. All sections of the country seemed to be of one mind regarding the fact that the race had entered upon a new era where there was a demand for educated leadership. This thought was NIJ ENOUB forcefully expressed by Darryl Wilkinson, Assistant Superintendent in charge of colored schools in the District of Columbia, who principal address delivered to the public session of the conclave held at the Allen A. M. B. Church Assistant Superintendent Wilkinson, who is a member of Alpha Omega Chapter of the Ecsternity spoke on "Group Leadership" and stressed especially the call for well prepared teachers, doctors, lawyers and preachers. Field Secretary William Pickens of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People spoke to the conclave in its business session on the urgent necessity for the study of Negro History. A committee composed of Field Secretary Pickens, Chairman; S. J. Lewis, Secretary; Dr. Carter G. Woodson, Assistant Superintendent; Garnet C. Wilkinson, of Washington, D. C.; Dr. C. V. Boyman of Nashville, Prof. William Gilbert of Nashville; Attorney George Hall of New York; C. W. White of Boston, and Prof. John H. Patterson. St. Louis was appointed period of one year to develop its plans for fostering the Negro History in the schools colleges of the country. The Omega Pai Phi Fraternity went on record through the unmoused action of the delegates of the conclave as being unalterably opposed to the Ku Klux Klan and telegrams were sent to Governors Allen of Kansas, Parker of Louisiana, Tate of Massachusetts and Mayor Hylan of New York City endorsing their opposition to the activities of the Klan. Resolutions were also adopted endorsing the interracial relation committee plan for augmenting good will among the citizens of this country. Letters to this effect were sent to the Governor of each state. Educational and civic organizations of Philadelphia entertained the delegates to the conclave. The Delta Sigma Theta Sorority was the host of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity at Houston Hall, University of Pennsylvania.

Many soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much free alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scap and make the hair brittle. The best thing to use it Mussified coconut oil to pure and entirely greaseless. It is very cheap and beats anything else all to pieces. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsified in a cap or glass with a little warm water is all that is required. Simply moisten the hair with water, and rub the Mulsified in. It makes an abundance of rice creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and as soft, fresh lookin', bright, fuzzy, wavy and easy to manage. Besides, it loosens and takes eat every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff. You can get Mulsified coatant oil shampoo at any drug store, and a few ounces will last everyone in the family for months.

This conclusion is drawn from the interview that the Professer ad with himself {t appeurs from the story he sends out under tke caption. “The Negro and the Administration.” tha: he appointed himself to interview the President; that he saw the President and as svon as he was ov: fof the President's presence, he proceeded to inter. view himseif and to mail bis interview to the Negro, press throughout the country, and the following 2s the intersiew he had with himself relative to ie conference he bad with the President, ‘The former college president writes ay follows of the Interview he had with himself: “Dr, W.

Naw it is non-sense. Independent voting is the “ship” naw, and unquestioning partisanship is the deep blue. : Great grown black men are crying and weeping: “What mhall we du? When our Republican boss kicks us in the} hack or spits in our face, shall we go on eating out of his hand and making speeches for his re-election?” # Just think ad prea) grow hae men asking a question like that! We shonld defeat a traitor even at the risk of temporary success for an enemy. ‘The Negro cannot stand for Pat Hat- tison, of course—but if he has any courage and sense, He’ will not stand for the Laytons and the Lodges, after they have betrayed him, even at the risk of T’at Harrison. * The awfulest terror for the Negro is net a hostile Democratic party in power; the worst uf terrers is a treacherous party of “friends” in power, conniving with these same hostile Democrats. In such a terrible situation as that, the Negro has no appeal and no hope. He had better risk having his “friends” on the outside. trying to get in. Harding’s talks on “Hayti,” Jor example, were much better when he was trying to become I’resident than since he has become Presi- dent. ‘These poor frightened old colored men and. politicians! They think we cannot live without the Republican Party, while we were congratulating uurselves that we had at fast developed beyond the time when black mothers used to teach their baby Loys that the only way to “get to Heaven” was ww “repent, believe, be baptized and jine the Republican Party.” The philosophy vi these “enllud leaders” is: Stay in the Republican Party, even if it slays and betrays you. Who- ever heard of such leadership? “Oh! We are lost without the Republican Party !”” : ‘That is just what the Republican bosses think we «will think, and that is just why they handle us like tools, treat us tike fools, and then laugh behind our backs. The Negroes of New York City have learned how to get along without the Republican Party: while the Negro of Mis- sissippi has had to get along without it. : We repeat: It is much better tact to risk enthroning the “opposition” than to increase the puwer of periidious “friends,” Tae.
