EASON'S DEATH WON'T HALT GARVEY'S TRIAL U. N. I. A. AUDITOR-GENERAL ARRESTED 12 PAGES FOR THREE CENTS VOL. XVIII. NO. 3 SOCIALIST LEADER IS CHEERED SOCIALIST LEADER IS CHEERED Jean Longuet, Member of the French Chamber of Deputies Tells of Senegalese and Siki-Other Noted Speakers Present. sulean Longuet, Socialist leader of the French Chamber of Deputies, in a meeting held at Douglas Hall last Sunday afternoon under the joint auspices of the N.A.A.C.P., The Friends of Negro Freedom and the 21st Assembly District, made an unqualified denial of the atrocities alleged to have been committed by Black troops against white women in Germany. The German people who have come in contact with the army of occupation, instead of thanking the Americans for their propaganda against Black troops are now blaming them for their officiousness, he declared. "The Senegalese," said M. Longuet, "were very good-natured. They were like great, big children and got along excellently with the Germans. The women and children were particularly fond of them. The result of the propaganda is that the Senegalese have been recalled and the Moroccans, a people classed as white, but who are brutes, took their places. "In all the cities of the middle West in which I have spoken," he continued, "I have emphasized the fact at each meeting that the American colored propagandists have been no friends to the German people." Speaking of the absence of color discriminations in France, he said: "I speak as one who has never known what it is to experience prejudice for any man because of color or race. From its beginning the Socialist Internationals have fought for the Negro as well as for all the other peoples of mankind alike. Frenchmen, whatever may be their faults or vices, do not know color prejudice. Immediately after slavery was abolished in the French colonies the black people received the vote and no one has ever thought of taking it from them. Many of the French colonies send members to the (Continued on Page 2.) VETERAN OF MOBILE BAY DIES AT AGE OF 77 George L. Younger Served Aboard Penaeus and the Big Civil War Battles Washington, D.

One reason Harlem is rapidly becoming a Tammany Hall stronghold is that the United Colored Democracy is fortunate in having in its enrolled membership such wide-awake and energetic young men as Lonny Hicks, the well-known and popular musician. It was Lonny who successfully staged the big midnight show recently given at the Lincoln Theatre in the interest of the Fordinand Q. Morton Marching Club, which went to Albany in grand style when Al. Smith was inaugurated Governor on January 1st. Although he does not lay claim to being an orator, Lonny during a short intermission at the midnight show highly praised the leadership of Commissioner Morton, and in simple but effective language told why Negroes in New York should support the Democratic ticket. Lonny's friends are urging him to take a more active interest in politics and predict for him a most promising career—Advt.

Amsterdam News Race Aroused Throughout Country Over Insulting Restrictions Against the Negroes—Action Never Before Overseers—Hope of Revocation Seen in Resentment of Many of White Alumni. Cambridge. Mass., Jan. 10. That his decision to bar Negro freshmen from the dormitory where other freshmen are forced to live by college regulations is final, is the latest statement from President A. Lawrence Lowell. Colored people everywhere have been aroused by this action of President Lowell, as over no like action of other universities and colleges, because they have always looked upon Harvard as a stronghold of liberal sentiment towards them. President Lowell's action is interpreted by many as indicating the extent to which the Ku Klux poison is penetrating into what were formerly the most progressive and liberal parts of the country. Harvard men in New York and throughout the country who hold sacred the Harvard traditions of tolerance and fair play have voiced their resentment over the Lowell decision and have conferred with him in an attempt to influence him to reverse his decision. The situation has been aggravated by the fact that the youth barred is the son of Roscoe Conkling Bruce, himself a Negro graduate of Harvard and in a position to put up a fight. Foremost among recent developments was the discovery that the matter never has been put before or acted on by the Board of Overseers of the university. The Board of Overseers is one of the two governing boards of the institution. The other is the "Corporation," consisting of the President and Fellows. Whether the matter has been laid before or acted on by the Corporation could not be learned yesterday. The question of which board has the highest authority is one that has not been settled in 300 years, but joint action of both boards is required on all important matters. The strength of the graduate protest against what is declared to be a departure from the university's historic tradition of tolerance is indicated by the fact that the memorial drawn up by seven graduates last June when other cases of Negro exclusion from the freshmen dormitories were reported, had the signatures of 133 graduates of classes ranging from 1850 to 1920 when it was presented to President Lowell. "Jim Crow the College." Declaring the action would "Jim Crow the College," the Rev. Dr. William Channing Gannett of Rochester yesterday gave out a statement of his views on President Lowell's action. He said: "I think the proposed exclusion policy at Harvard would violate policy at Harvard would violate all her traditions and certainly her best ideals. In its measure it would "Jim Crow" the college. It would show her sliding with those disposed to increase rather than lessen the birth burdens of the colored people in our land, and this at a critical time when inter-racial and international questions are pressing to the fore, demanding noble adjustment. Ideals of justice and democracy are certainly part of a Harvard education." 132ND STREET FIRE. A fire last Saturday on the top floor of the building at 166 West 132nd street, adjoining the Lafayette Building, was quickly put out by firemen from Engine Co. 29 and Hook and Ladder companies 23 and 28.

Y., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 17, 1923 PUT OUT OF THEATRE HE STONES WINDOWS Frank Wellington, 19, elevator operator, of 965 Columbus avenue, was arraigned Monday before Magistrate Charles A. Oberwauer in the Washington Heights Court on Monday morning charged with disorderly conduct. Knife Stewart, 246 W. 146th street, special officer at the Roosevelt Theatre says that Wellington and several others had been making a great deal of noise in the theatre and he called Officer Gashun of the 38th Precinct to put him out. When ejected Wellington said that he was going for his gang and later returned with a number of boys who began to stone the theatre, breaking a window. Stewart says that he chased the boys and caught Wellington in a hallway at 144th street. Wellington declared that he was waiting for his sister, and denied breaking the window. He was remanded for investigation on January 23. Landlord Held for Special Sessions Tenants Charge That Hugs gins Failed to Give The tenants of Edgar Huggins, of 26 West 136th street, 15 in number, led by Ross D. Pitts, of 123 West 134th street, hailed Huggins before Magistrate Owberwager, Monday, for failing to supply heat and hot water. They declared that they had been without either for several weeks, and had complained to him without effect. Pitts said that he had to take his children each night either to the theatre or to the house of friends, in order to keep them warm. Huggins offered his coat bills in evidence, but the magistrate told him that they weren't proof the heat was being supplied. He was held in $500 bail for Special Sessions. His wife offered the deed for the apartment house as bail, but there were two mortgages on it and the magistrate refused to accept it. The 15 tenants were very much pleased to see their landlord locked up, pending the furnishing of proper bail. AMERICA'S SUR "MURDER WITN Staged by: The Ku Klux ent.

Counsel for Garvey asked that a higher bail than $2,000 be fixed as subsequent investigation of Garcia's book might reveal other shortages, but Garvey admitted that Garcia had been a high officer of the Association for many years, that he had handled millions of dollars for the organization and that so far as he know, Garcia had been honest. Allege Attempt to Discredit Gareca. Friends of Gareca are indignant over his arrest, and declare that it is an attempt to remove another important witness against Gareca by discrediting him. Gareca, the star witness, was the ninth man about to leave for New York City to testify against Gareca, whose case is now on the docker but has been put back because of the great number of cases ahead of it. Gareca's case, it is said, will be reached on or about February 18. Gareca, it is rumored, was planning to make a clean breast of the alleged frudent deals in the Black Star Line to the authorities. Gareca, like the late Dr. Eason, was one of the pioneer officers of the organization when it started some five years ago. He was high in Gareca's confidence. In 1959 the association planned the development of Liberia and collected some two hundred thousand dollars for the purpose. Gareca was sent on a secret mission to Liberia. The handwriting on the altered corns check is said to be Garlic extension are expected at the hear- tion before the grand jury. White Bishop to Preside in Haiti of St. John. Rev.

J., Jan. 15—"Seek and ye shall find; ask and it shall be given; give care Mrs. Carrie Gittens, a solicitor of funds for the Church of God and Saints of Christ, located in a basement in Boyden street, here, more trouble than she was looking for.

It is said that the woman was collecting for the Church of God, as a member of the Daughters of Jerusalem and Sisters of Merry. She was charged with collecting without a permit. She also was charged with endangering the morals of two minors who were going about with her on her collecting tour. The two girls were placed in the care of the Children's Society at Jamaica. The Jamaican thorites got in touch with the New York Javeneau College where no investigation at the home of the girls. The church at the living quarters of its leaders were also subjected to investigation by a social welfare director of Jamaica, who returned with a very adverse report regarding existing conditions at the Church of God and Saints of Christ.

Hudson, priest in charge of the church in Boyen street, told the investigators that twenty persons, including seven children, live in the church quarters and all are employees of the church. He also stated that they live there one of their husbands living at the parsonage, he said. A book of one of the solicitors was produced. It revenued a large number of $1 and $2 contributions from firms and individuals and fewer small donations of 10 to 50 cents. The firm names were pasted in the book, evidently cut from letterheads or advertisements. Elder Hudson said, "The support and assistance that the unfortunate home for them and the contemplated section of a church building on the land in pre-catcured in Boyen street, are the purposes for which the money is being collected."

Y MEN WHY NOT KONGOLENE WILL MAKE YOU SMILE POSITIVELY STRANGERS BAR KONGOLENE 911-222-2222 LICENSED BAR DEC-25 Inveigles Woman Out of $25.00; Arrested Little Rock, Ark., Jan. 16.—Huber Sherman was not as smooth as he thought himself to be. He is alleged to have told a prominent woman here that her son was in jail in Brinkley, and that if she would give him $25 he would obtain the boy's release. Sherman told her that he had just returned from Brinkley and was going back that night. The woman gave Sherman the $25, but later in the afternoon became suspicious and telephoned the authorities at Brinkley. They told her that no one by the name or description of her son was held by them. She then came to police headquarters and swore out a warrant for Sherman's arrest. When arrested he was unable to pay his fine and was lodged in jail. He finally admitted the crime and that if he had not been arrested he would have pulled the same game on several other colored women. The judge fined him $131.90 on the charge of transporting whiskey and ordered him held for the grand jury on the charge of embezzlement. Sherman is said to be a man who had always made his living without work. Minister Loses Divorce Suit Wife Willing to Return— Newark Pastor Unable to Free Himself. Newark, N. J., Jan. 16—Rev. Mr. Ellijah L. Musseley was unable to free himself of the shackles of married life in a divorce proceeding last Thursday. Protestations by Mrs. Josephine Ford Musseley that it had always been her desire to return to her husband contributed to the clergyman's unduling. He lost his case because he was unable to prove he had ever made proper overtures looking to a reconciliation. Mrs. Moseley fairly radiated sincerity as she told of her appreciation and fondness for her husband, although during the recital she pictured him as a "ladies man." On one occasion, following a brief separation, she says she found him entertaining several women, and was really so familiar with them as to lovingly slap the face of one of them. Testimony developed that Rev. Moseley lost the pastorate at Penn Grove through the disapproval of WHAT MAKES DRUG HIGH QUALITY Plus Courteous, Prom You Find A Succe Smithline' his conduct by the defendant, and that he has not held a permanent charge since. Moseley told the court that he was treasurer of the Metropolitan Mutual Benefit Association, which office brings him a salary of $50 a month, and that through the placing of insurance he earns from $6 to $12 a week.

SPECIAL TO THE PITTSBURGH COURIER (By Andrew (Rube) Foster) Chicago, Ill., January 11—My attention was drawn again forcibly to baseball matters when an article in the Public Ledger of Philadelphia, under date of December 21, 1922, was sent to me by an inquiring fan of the East, asking that I comment on same. The eastern association, from the papers, will have six clubs: Hilldale, representing Philadelphia and Camden; Baltimore, Bacharachs of Atlantic City, Royals of Brooklyn and Cubans of Havana. The condition of affairs, I took twelve men West with me, telling them that we should not submit to such conditions until we found it absolutely impossible to better ourselves. Can you imagine a colored club playing to 10,000 paid admissions and receiving only the limit of $400, and then giving 10 per cent of that to Strong to play in New York? Bolden, to play him, must give him a percentage. I do not want any leader like that, Suel. Nat Strong's Booking Agency? Why not call this Nat Strong's Booking Agency? It's useless to fly and camouflage the public into the belief that such an organization, when formed, means only to perpulinate the commission of Nat Strong, who has taken up per cent from the gross earnings of colored hall clubs for over twenty years, whose good will for them to use and never will; yet he believes in organization of the white clubs and erected fine parks for them, but his "Royals" must go from day to day as a club without a home. Officers or Associates James Keenan of New York, a white man, a secretary of the organization, and Edward Bolden is the chairman. The other officers were not named, but Nat Strong, present owner of the Royals, (who were taken from Connors) is the guiding spirit. The Association is made up of clubs booked by Strong, viz. Cultus, Baltimore Lincoln Giants, Rocharach, Royals and Hibbale, who has at last fallen in line. One cannot help but marvel at the steps used to hoodwink the public. Good Clubs Left in Cold. There are four other good colorful club in Philadelphia, Washington, Richmond, Norfolk and Harrisburg, that need protection and should be encouraged, yet these clubs were left out of the Association because they are not booked by Why Hillidale Withdrew. Why Hilldale Withdrew. Edward Bolden, president of the Hilldale Club, came to our annual meeting in Chicago last month, and told me that he wished me to arrange it so he could withdraw, explaining that they were going to organize a league in the East. In explaining my purpose, told him, "I am objections, but could not associate with clubs out of the Association. I further told him that if he could get an agreement from the league to respect our rights, I would recommend the return of the deposit of the Hilldale club, when such an agreement was signed. But when he resigned, I told him that the return of his deposit would be impossible. He said I must tender the resignation. He did, and the League accepted it. Agreement With Eastern Clubs. Our agreements with the Eastern Clubs did not call for any exchange of games, nor was it compulsory for the eastern clubs to come West. It were merely an agreement to respect each other's contractual rights, as to players and the territory they played in, and not to temper with their players. Bolden, last year, tried the same thing, but got cold feet, having the return his deposit of $1,000 and remaining away from the meeting. With Strong and Keenan, he tried and made efforts to take players from the league. For retaliation, I used the same medicine on him, and would have wrecked the Hilldale Club. Bolden crushed to Chicago and asked me to allow him to again place his deposit, and to unde the things done to his club. We accepted him for the good of baseball, yet he had to relinquish claim to Whitworth and turn him over to me. Need of Aggressive Leaders. It is hard to believe that people can be so easily duped as our loyal fans in the East. I played in the East, under Strong. The club received buttuff Sunday games, yet grew as well. We met at the present in New York. When we asked for more, the whites took the players and paid them such ridiculously small salaries that the players found it almost impossible to exist.

Can you imagine a colored club playing to 10,000 paid admissions and receiving only the limit of $500, and then giving 10 per cent of that to Strang to play in New York? Bolden, to play him, must give him a percentage. I do not want any leader like that. Suel methods would not be tolerated by anyone that really thinks. There is no denying the fret that J. W. Connors has spent more for the development and maintenance of the East than any other living colored man he was with Bolden and stuck. When Strong refused to remain, our Association if Connors remained, it took me just five minutes to tell him he had accepted Connors and he could withdraw. But Balden has gone with Stron- and left Connors in the cold. They is quite a difference in loyalty and principle. Bolden as Chairman. Bolden as Charleston. I am glad Bolden cannot sit on anything that would alter my future in any way. He was with the board of directors of the area white Philadelphia Baseball Association, and he sat there, an encumbered the whites to draw plans and collect percentage to booking, and to set a standard price that no coloured club would receive more than $15000 for a game. Yet they drew all the best attendance, and are an absolute necessity. It would be better he were not deaf and dumb. Now he is chair-man of the new association. Ma Gold help his tongue and guide faculties to such an extent, that his actions will not give him war, to accomplish, where he will do the game such harm that centurion will not erase his mistakes. Lloyd Signs With Hildale. The Indianapolis Lodge is headlined: "Lloyd signs With Hildale. Can one fail to see why Baldie wanted to withdraw? He wanted to get with Strong. He could not tamper with his players because of fear. But he turns and signs one of Connors' men, who belonged to the Association, thus expecting to lister a club with players belonging to other clubs, and again starting the war we have tried to avoid in making players jump contracts. They are now after more men from our league, and I, for one will not try to stop a raid on our players. But at the proper time, I will drive a blow that will strike at the very vitals of this treachery. I do not fear Strong or any man in the baseball business. They know if I play where money is. I must share equally in it. Flashes Land in Second Place During the past week the Century Council 'Caseys' leaders in the Catholic A. B. League, seemed to have lost heart. After being defeated by St. Marks Flashes last week and St. Johns a week previous, the 'Caseys' dropped out of the League on the eve of another hard struggle against the Ascension Mystics. However, their departure left the Mystics in first place, and the Flashes in second. On Wednesday last, the St. Marks Flashes went into the hair of St. Anselm and defeated the home boys 39-16. The first half was closely contested ending 8-7 in the Flashes' favor. In the second half speed and team play of Father Plunkett's boys proved too much for their opponents. Nethrop led in the scoring with six field goals and one foul; Saltch scored five goals; Gates, four; Freeman and Dunbar, two each. SALEM GIRLS DEFEATED The Y. W. C. A. Association Team defeated the Salem Crescent Girls last Saturday night at the "Y" Gym. Score at the end of the first half 8-9. Final Score 14-2. Touchin' on an 'appertainin' to most ever'thin' in the world of sport, theatricals and music. Which calls to mind that Walter M. Hunter, well known singer, will be to the fore again in February. Mr. Hunter's affairs are of the highest order. Talk about inconsistency, brothers, but you seldom run across it in its most aggravated form until you carefully follow the workings of the minds manipulating our rundown sheets. Not a century ago we attended one of those well boosted affairs which turned out to be one of the season's bloomers. Did the representatives of the colored press make good with readers by telling the truth? Nix, nix. But when Irvin C. Miller's show flivvered at the Lafayette we read what was supposed to be an illuminating account of the why and wherefore. Now, we hold no brief for the Coleman Brothers and fully believe they are inclined to think "this riter" pretty hard at times, but the fact remains that had they known of the rottenness of "Broadway Riatus 1923" they never would have brought it to the Lafayette. The fault is not with the Coleman Brothers, for they took our word just like other managers before them when we represented the Smart set Company. True, the company came and made good, but if it had illivered it would have been our fault and not the theatre owners. We might as well charge Mr Belasco with knowingly putting on some of the failures he experienced in the past. Theatrical managers of color houses have for high on to twenty years been forced to take the word of producers and when producers come backed up by the slush written by men passing for critics, there's where lots of the trouble can be traced. What we are aiming to show in this instance is that of those adventurers who nightly and daily plan to get by through staging big affairs without having the necessary cash to cover their expenses, forcing printers and other people to take a wild chance with them, seem to find immunity in our columns while theatrical managers who are fifty-two weeks in the year hand out their mite towards the support of many of these sunset sheets are held to account for the attempt if some would-be producer lucking by instead of creating. If we withhold our comment when filivers are pulled by schemers it would be consistent to do the same in the case of people who are making it possible FOR SCORES OF OUR PEOPLE TO EARN A LIVELIHOOD AS LONG AS THEY ARE IN POWER. We told in advance the poor season that would be experienced by basketball clubs this year and we note that some of them are not even functioning. So far we have not heard a word of the Dunbar Physical Culture Club of New Jersey. Dunbar was looked upon as the king pin if the big fellows in the mosquito state but this year she is at a stand-till. By the time they get ready to star many of the players will have to stand investigation as we understand these boys could not wait for Dunbar to "strut her stuff" while the time was simply flying. Resurrecting Jess Willard just to keep Harry Wills out of the running for a fight with Jack Dempsey is what we can expect from the powers that be in boxing. Tex Rickard is telling the world what a wonderful man is Jess while laying plans to detach another cool million from the pockets of Barnum's faithful George Godfrey could take all the white hopes and lick them with one hand but the Ku Klux Klan says this is a white man county and only white men will be given a square deal at Madison Square Garden. Wot a name! Madison SQUARE Garden. Wow. Plenty of chances on theiring line in France, men, but none down town in New York. Yet you all throw up your hats and appear to be so happy when Mr. Epps call you to die for something you never had a chance of enjoying. A law should be passed to restrain some of our would-be dance promoters from attempting to stage affairs unless they deposit a sum to cover their expenses. The past few seasons have found a number of these parasites without "the necessary" going under and carrying all of those who trusted them down to the limbo of forgotten "sensations." We hold, will continue to maintain that any man (or woman for that matter) who, without means, take a chance on pulling enough people into a cario by taking advantage of the hard struggling colored newspapers, printers and others, are unworthy of association with honest people. They should go to work until such time as they can cover themselves if they fail to get the people out. Legitimate enterprises are run on a basis where the people are prepared to meet their just debts when enough supporters are not out to pay the expenses. Funny that they can dig down and find enough money to pay the owners of the casinos. Ask some of the musicians stung hard and see if they are not of the same opinion. "A Bronx Subscriber," who took exception to an article written by one of our reporters a few weeks ago and who had his (or her) say in our last issue, can now glim the following from the pen of the party who wrote the article that caused our good reader to feel that we were not getting our matter from "reliable sources": Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty, Sporting Editor, The New York Amsterdam News. Dear Sir: Allow me, as a member of the Y. W. C. A. Association Team to answer a letter appearing in your issue of January 10th relative to a former article which appeared in the issue of January 3rd. This article stated that the N. Y. Academy attempted to present an all-star team under the name of the Academy Seniors. Such information is absolutely correct and reliable, was obtained from an authentic source and will not be retracted as we have positive proof of its truthfulness. Intelligent people have always thought that a representative team of any organization or association is composed of members of that body, is that so of the Academy Teams? We know that four players on the Senior Team were this year affiliated with two other different teams, and we have yet to see a public notice of resignation from or disconnection with these said organizations. In athletics there is nothing so essential as good sportsmanship, and a sore loser is one of the features that should be eliminated. The report of the tournament was published as a matter of news, with no personal or individual "knocks." We trust that the N. Y. Academy Seniors will see things in that light.

New York, Jan. 16th. The recent article published in various periodicals under the cognomen of Mr. Andrew (Rube) Foster, relative to the baseball situation in the East, reveals the fact that the self-appointed Czar of Negro baseball is not satisfied with the unwieldy regime that he has set up in the West, but would, if possible, extend his automatic reign to the Eastern situation, using libelous propaganda in an effort to inoculate the public at large. It is indeed surprising to find one in the exalted position of Mr. Foster to resort to the pernicious method of the poison pen, and the average fan cannot but wonder why one who has possibly attained the pinnacle in the Negro baseball world, would stoop to such unscrupulous measures. I find the pressure of business such that it requires all of my time, nothing is gained by ceaseless verbal battles, which is one of Mr. Foster's chief ways of "playing to the galleries" yet the attack upon a situation that is entirely foreign to him necessitates the exposure of facts that the average fan is entirely ignorant of and these facts I am in a position to give and will gladly enlighten the followers of Negro baseball. Mr. Foster begins with an unwarranted, nefarious attack upon our newly formed organization, the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs, which reveals the fact that he is suffering with a severe attack of the "green-eyed monster," even injecting the race issue by calling attention to the fact that Mr. Keenan, Secretary-Treasurer of the Eastern Association, is white. There are a few skeletons hurking in the closet of the Western Czar that have never been brought to light and with the exception of a very few the actual conditions are not known. It is indeed strange that Mr. Foster should take such a repulsive attitude to the fact that the Eastern Association is comprised of both colored and white officers. Why does Mr. Foster not publish the fact that Scherling Park and the American Giants are property of John Schorling, for whom the park is named and Foster a chattel of his white boss? Why does he not publish the fact that the secretaryship of the Western Association is held by Mr. Wilkinson, who is one of the opposite race? Why does he not publish the fact that the same Mr. Strong, whom he now seeks to Mr. Strong, whom he now seeks to Why does Mr. Foster not pub.

SPECIAL TO THE AMSTERDAM NEWS (By Edward Bolden) hold up a target, has letters from Foster entreatening him to connect with the Western Association because of his known financial resources. Even stating in his letter of 11-24-21 that he and Mr. Strong were the only recognized leaders in Negro baseball. Very strange some people's opinion of racial devotion. Again Mr. Foster assails the fact that Mr. Strong operates a booking agency, which many are cognizant of and know as a legitimate business, but we have never paid Mr. Strong one cent for booking the Hilldale Club. Why does Mr. Foster not publish the fact that he charges every club in the Western Association 5 per cent of their gross earnings? Why does he not publish the fact that Hilldale Club paid him percentage for all clubs that came East, at the same time he charged the Western club a percentage, despite their heavy road expenses, a practice that is unheard of in the annals of bookings: The situation in the West is such that a number of clubs are dependent upon Chicago, because of the Sunday games that they play at that city and hence must submit their games to the league regime that are just as repulsive to them, but the situation is such that they must accept his terms. Our club is too big to pay percentage for bookings, this being one of our chief reasons for resigning from the Western Association. His Sunday games in the West do not mean anything to us, as we have received more money for a twilight engagement in Philadelphia, where the players could walk to the park, than a Sunday game in the West, with over a thousand miles' railroad fare to cover! Why does Mr. Foster not speak of the mid-week games in Chicago and Detroit, when the clubs play to empty benches? Why, does Mr. Foster seek to cover the fact that the By-Laws of the Western Association make provision for the visiting club to receive 35 per cent of the gross receipts, yet the Eastern clubs (Bacharach Giants and Hildale) were forced to pay 40 per cent to all Western clubs, with the exception of the American Giants, that exacted 50 per cent, while the Bacharach Giants and Hildale received only 35 per cent in the West and 5 per cent of this was taken by the self-appointed Czar. Why does Mr. Foster not pub- Boxing Track and Field Events--Billiards War of Ish how many clubs in the Western Association operated without placing their $1,000? Why does he not make known how many clubs beside Hilldale, including the American Giants, have put up their $1,000? These are facts that Foster will not give out. What kind of an association can run on the level of meeting a year, one man to make up the budget, one man and juggle it to suit his own interests, one man heading an organization and holding the strings to its purse? The owners of Eastern clubs are more than able to take care of the situation in their territory. The Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs has been organized with the intention of giving the fans better baseball, which the public will decide the coming season. The Western Association could offer us no benefits, no protection, and we followed the only course that a sagacious one would pursue and resigned. The East is responsible for the success of our club and all others in our organization; the West is beyond our reach. Our Kaiser attempted to swallow the world with results that are now history. If the self-appointed Czar of the West can digest the baseball situation in his territory, so good, he will surely have to contend with the after effects of an epileptician who indulges in rarebelt suppers if he attempts to include the East in his diet.

Seventeenth Annual Reception and Ball Given By (MI-TEE) Lafayette Theatre Now Presenting Big Vaudevill JOE SHEFTALL ACT HEADING BIG VAUDEVILLE BILL THIS WEEK After "Flivver" of Miller Offering the Popular Harlem House Went Into Vaudeville Until Such Time As They Can Secure Other Shows. ```markdown ``` Lafaye JOE SHEFTALL ACT VAUDEVILLE After "Flivver" of Miller Office House Went Into Vaudevil They Can Secure When the curtain came down on the Irvin C. Miller "Broadway Rastus 1923" last week at the Lafayette Theatre, the management was left in a quandary in that this was the last offering of its kind to be secured and they were forced to put in vaudeville. The Miller show did just what we expected, for while "Broadway Rastus" was Miller's best bet for a long time, the show without Miller and his personal supervision will never make good anywhere. The original show for more than one season made good and when it played the Lafayette the last time, Miller did unusually good business with it and we are willing to wager that Irwin would have agreed with us if he heard us before the opening skeptically voicing an opinion on the ability of Rastus with its new people to hold the boards for two weeks. As it turned out, it did not even hold the boards for a full evening's performance. Since we have praised the good shows secured by the Coleman Brothers for their patrons, we see no reason now why we should lame them for a show which they occurred for their house under the same circumstances which brought the successes into their house; they were led to believe that Miller was a magic name where Rastus was concerned and since the critics had seen it to receive "Liza" with open arms, it was natural that they would imagine that Rastus was returning to Harlem under the best auspices. lustus being given the razz on the opening night, they were acced to "go into vaudeville" and the next night saw a good bill for the present week another good bill is on tap with Joe saffall's big act taking the headline position. Shettah lay in his company soon well-known performers, asda (Baby Blues) grown, Mildred Smallwood, Minta Cute, Alberta Jones, Theresa West, Dewey Jones, Fred Davis and Bob Williams. Aide of the Shuffle Along Company, Lies and his band is also on the bill, which is one that will easily hold its own daring the week's run at the Lafayette. Until such time as they can secure a show Coleman Brothers will keepville as the attraction. "How Come" Left Town on Saturday to Be Whipped Into Shape for Broadway, We Are Told After rehearsing here for the past three or four weeks, the new show backed by Ben Davis entitled "How Come" left town on Saturday evening for Norfolk, Va. where the rough edges will be taken before coming back to this city where it is expected to open for a run on Broadway. The book of this new production is by Eddie Hunter, one of the younger generation of performers Hunter, with Chappelle, who ages ago presented little sketches with his partner at the old Centenary Theatre and at Mrs. Brown's Nickollete, at that time under the management of Engene (Frenchy) Elmore. Hundreds were turned away nightly and the two boys enjoyed a success on 125th Street that made the older ones in the profession sit up and take notice. In recent years Chappelle has been teamed up with Jumita Stinette while Hunter has been associated with a number of promising young performers. Believing that the time is ripe for something out of the ordinary, he decided to furnish the book of How Comes and from what we have seen of the rehearsals we are inclined to believe that this offering will make good. Andrew Tribble, S. Turt Whitney, Frank McGomery, Florence McClain, George Cooper and many other well known performers are with the production. Story of South Seas Is "The Bonded Woman' Want to go to the South New Islands? Nearly everybody does, since reading the books of Frederick O'Brien, W. S. Maucham and others. Patrons of the Franklin Theatre will find themselves escorted away to this romantic region when they see Betty Campson in "The Bonded Woman," her latest Paramount picture which opens at the Franklin Theatre for two days commencing today. In this offering, the South Pacific archipelago is shown at its best, with enough of its worst to make the drama. Miss Compson as Angelia, goes to a dive in Hawaii to rescue the man she loves. This is a colorful scene, with dances, girls, sailors and natives, and pictures Hawaii as most people fancy it. But fate, and the girls wish, then remove the pair to a barren deserted island, where the deserment takes place. Miss Compson is supported by a very fine cast, including Richard Dis, John Bowers, J. Parrell Mac Theatres and Other Amusements Vaudeville and Motion Pictures Cette Theatre N CT HEADING BIG BILL THIS WEEK Offering the Popular Harlem ville Until Such Time As are Other Shows. About Things "You know," said Charles Gilpin, work I've done on the stage. I don't think I did better work when I played Winthrop." Know the part? You do? a Negro necessarily because he is one "You know," said Charles Gilpin, "Brutus Jones is not the best work I've done on the stage. I don't think it's my best part. No, sir, I think I did better work when I played the old lawyer in 'Young Mrs. Winthrop.' Know the part? You do? An actor doesn't have to play a Negro necessarily because he is one. Grecase, paint and powder can make me any color I want." Donald, Ethel Wales, William Moran and others. "The Bounded Woman" is based on a story by the late John Fleming Wilson, which was adapted to the screen by A. S. LeVino, Philip E. Rosen directed and James van Trees photographed. Charles Glinp boasts less of success than any actor we have interviewed. Nearly 30 years of work before he reached his present place as the star of "The Emperor Jones" must have taught him valuations. Achievement apparently has not sent him into a temporary daze. The touch of the south still linger, in his speech; the observations are those of an intelligent mind. A Real Pirate Picture --- "I started in a honky-tonk," he says honestly. "I started with other youngsters singing and dancing and passing the hat around for contributions. We had to in these days. Then another fellow and myself decided to go into variety. We had some photographs made first—that seemed the most necessary step—and we took another man's entire act and played it as "The Broadway Dude and the Bowery Bum." He chuckle: "My only advantage had been some training under a sister in a little parochial school in Richmond. She knew a lot about singing and taught me how to breathe properly. Then we did amateur entertainments and I used to take part in them. I had a little equipment when I started and it has been a help to me all my life. But when we began on the stage we were just two young chaps. Twenty dollars a week and 'cakes' looked mighty big to us. Well, we kept on playing in variety theatres and musical comedies until in 1896 I got stranded. No more show business for me. No, sir. I went back to work as a janitor in Philadelphia. Then a year or two later my boy was born and I found I couldn't earn enough as a janitor. So I went back on the stage and I've been there ever since. Mostly musical shows and vaude-ville. Now Being Shown at the Lincoln Theatre With Betty Compson and Bert Lyttell Pirates being thrown headlong from towering decks; sword-fights while canon boom and a thrilling swing for life 130 feet across and over the deck of a rakih censure craft such are the thrill features of the sea sequence in "To Have and to Hold." George Fitzmaurice's new Paramount picture with Betty Compson and Bert Lyttell in the featured leads, added by Theodore Kosloff and W. J. Ferguson in strong roles. The picture is now on view at the Lincoln theatre. The "pirate stuff" was taken in the ocean off Babba, California, about the old South Sea trading schooner, "William G. Iwain," specially rebuilt by fifty carpenters who worked for three weeks to transform it for pirate purposes. A hundred tough looking pirates with swords, pistols, bombmas and all the other ear-marks of their calling, to form a vivid background against which the principals play on their thrilling parts. "It's funny about success. I remember years ago in York, Pa, trying to get a place to stay. My partner and I and another fellow and his wife tramped all over the city to get lodgings. We were playing then with Williams and Walker in 'Abyssinia.' She had a baby to carry and she was a frail little woman and needed rest. Well, sir, no one wanted us until we finally came to one house. 'We don't generally take people,' said the woman, 'but we've got a back room and a front room and we can fix you up.' It looked fine to us. Then she asked us what we did. 'Show folks,' we said proudly. 'You can't come in here.' she answered. 'We wouldn't have show folks in this house. We're respectable people.' 'Where do you get that stuff?' I asked and we left. And in 1921, when 'The Emperor Jones' went back to York, Pa., those very people were the first ones to come up and want to have a reception and a lot of parties for me. 'No, sir.' I said. 'I'm no different than I was years ago and then I wasn't good enough for you.' But times have changed. People are coming to understand that the actor is a regular human being like everyone else." Smith's Orchestra Dance John C. and His Modern Dance Orchestra Will Be at Renaissance Casino on February 7th We speak of the popularity of many musicians but few are really worthy of being referred to in this manner. Among those few are John C. Smith, whose music evokes salvages of applause and much praise by those attending affairs at which he appears with his Modern Dame, Orchestra. "You know I was about the eleventh person they tried out for the old Negro in 'Abraham Lincoln.' I was in vaudeville at the time with two other men and we were playing in Virginia. First they thought they could put some burnt cork on anyone and the part would go. They tried it but John Drinkwater didn't like any of the selections. Then they attempted to take in old colored people with curly white hair and let them read the lines. That didn't go either. Finally someone got the idea of hiring an actor. The stage manager of the company remembered me and sent me a letter. It reached me on a Saturday afternoon in Petersburg. We were closing Saturday night and going back to New York. We had a good novelty act and we just about to book up over the Pantages time. I went down to the Aster theatre on Monday morning and they were having the dress rehearsal. I found the stage manager and he told me to sit out front and watch the show. Then he took me out in the corridor and said: 'Think you can play the part?' Yes, I think I can, I said, 'but not as that man is doing it.' 'We don't want it that way,' he answered, 'we want it better.' He gave me the book and told me to read it. Mr. Drinkwater wasn't familiar with the Negro dialect and it wasn't right. 'What is this stuff?' I asked. 'It isn't Sioux Indian and it isn't Negro I never saw anything like it.' The stage manager smiled. 'Meet Mr. Drinkwater,' he said and introduced me to the author. Well, I had made the unfortunate remark and there was nothing else to do. 'Think you can play it,' he asked, smiling. 'I think so.' 'Well, use your own dialect and stick to the text.' 'When do we open?' 'Tomorrow night.' 'But I don't want to undermine any man's job.' I said. The fellow who was playing the part then came up afterward and told me he was glad to get out of it. 'I'm a musician, not an actor,' he said. There were 41 people in the piece—53 characters in all, but a lot of doubling—and I was one of the eight mentioned for praise in the papers. So I played the part while the show was at the Cort for months." Lovers of the host in dance music will be given their fill on Wednesday evening, February 7, when John C. and his men put on what they call the "Seasons" Don Sant Laurel at the pro-plenum session at the Renaissance Cuisine. John and his men can dish up such good music for others, it is safe to predict that they will try to do themselves one better when they appear in an affair of their own. The Misses Ruth Goodie, Vertrude Harding, Linda Wilson, Ruth Brannon, Virginia Milson, Ella Morgan and Freda Smith are the young ladies adding to the long list of portraitses of the affair, which includes the Moskams Ray Pope, Signa Palmer, Helen Brannon, Florence Hamilton, Georgia Hicks, Craire Lee Cooke, Mildred St. Denis, Katie Reavis and Ethel White. ORIENTALS WIN AGAIN "Success is a funny thing. I make as much in a week as my mother did in a year. She was a trained nurse and she couldn't give me much. But she gave me everything she could and it was her moral support that has been an influence all my life. The Oriental "Speed Merchants" added another victim to their long list of victories, when they defeated the Harlem Professionals by a score of 27-20, last Saturday night, at New Rochelle. --- "There's no symbolism in the 'Emperor Jones.' It's just a study of a bully. He might be of any race. It's a simple drama. It reads cold. It needs playing to bring it out. It shows what a coward a bully is. It is a study of the bully's conscience. There is much repetition in it. The first act is the hardest act to play. After that is over it goes right along. I get a thrill out of watching the effect of it on audiences in different cities. I find that the majority of my own people resent it just as the ignorant white spectator resents the first act when the Negro is lording it over the Smithers. But well read, intelligent people of either race like it. To date they have scored ten wins, and forced to taste the sting of defeat three times, the only one by a colored club being at the hands of the Commonwealth Big "7". The other two beatings were in 24-22 and 26-22, by the Professional Collegians, and Bronx Profession, both of which played the Commonwealth "7", to one point scores. Saturday night's game saw the New Rocholiers without the services of their sensational guard, Leon James, but sufficiently strengthened by the addition of Bruce Flowers. "Most of my time is spent reading plays. I have manuscripts sent me every week. As yet I have not found just the right play. But I know some old plays that might be revived. And Owen Davis has a play with an old Quaker couple that could be changed to a colored couple. I'll have to stay in the show business. It's all I know what to do. I feel that if I've brought anything to the stage with this play I might as well let the stage give me a living when this tour is finished." We resisted the inclination to ask Gilpin if he wanted to play Shakespeare. We knew the answer. Every actor does. Morningside 6132 WM. G.

But like most men with the same trait, he has been satisfied to let his work speak for itself and the manner in which they showered praise on him last week again proves that he is succeeding in not only keeping the ball rolling at this club, but arranging matches which meet with the enthusiasm of the followers of the game. Last week's card was of the topnotch variety, with Jamaica Kid and Willee Walker doing their stuff to the delight of the fans. Walker strutted more than Jamaica, hence the judges handed the modest and unassuming Willee the honors at the end of a hard fought twelve round bout.

Moorfield Storey Files Brief With U. S. Supreme Court on Arkansas Riot Cases Moorfield Storey, former president of the American Bar Association, on Tuesday, January 9th, appeared before the United States Supreme Court to argue appeals in behalf of Negro peons condemned to death in connection with the Arkansas riots of 1919. In the course of the brief appealing against sentence of death imposed upon five of the Negroes, sensational charges are made involving the Courts of the State of Arkansas; newspapers; leading citizens; Rotary Club; Robert L. Kitchens Post, American Legion; and other organizations of Helena, Arkansas, all of whom are charged with having tried to railroad the Negroes to death, torture being employed to make the prisoners testify falsely, mob hysteria dominating their trial, which is alleged to have taken place in less than an hour. The cases arose out of an attempt by Negro farmers to organize and obtain legal redress against teenage or debt slavery under the Associated with Mr. Moorfield Storey before the Supreme Court is Mr. Sculpio A. Jones of Little Rock, Arkansas. Mr. Jones has been in charge of the cases from their inception. Sentenced in 1919.

Howard Players To Appear in Play "The Death Dance" By Thelma Duncan To Be Presented in Washington January 19th. Washington, D. C., Jan. 16. The Players of Howard University will appear in another original drama entitled "The Death Dance," to be presented on Friday evening, January 19th. In the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel, on the University Campus. The author of the drama is Miss Thelma Duncan, a member of the class of 1923 of Howard University. The production will be a special performance as a part of a reception to a group of visiting students from Holland, Germany, Austria and England. The Players will thus have the exceptional opportunity of demonstrating the artistic and cultural life of the American Negro to the representatives of European culture. The play itself is a remarkable adaptation of the customs and practices of the Val tribe of Liberia, on the West Coast of Africa. The story deals with the romance of Kamo, a prince of the tribe, and Azumana, the beautiful dancer, and the diabolical but unsuccessful efforts of the Medicine Man to win the girl for himself by destroying her lover. Kathleen Hillyer will give a vivid interpretation of Azumana, her "dance of death" being a brilliant achievement. J. W. Nicholson as the Medicine Man, Purvis Chesson as Kamo, and Bernard Walton as Allhu, are all players of considerable understanding and power. Special music has been composed for "The Dance of Death" by Victor Kerney. The scenery will present a beautiful picture of a tribal village in the rich coloring of an African sunset. Accompanying this play will be the Maker of Dreams," a pleasing fantasy by Olphant Down. The part of Pierrot will be taken by Jennings Newsome, that of Pierrot by Grace Rose Nask and the manufacturer by Alfred Smith. The music will be furnished by the University Orchestra, under the direction of Sergent Dorsey Rhodes. The Howard Players, because of their noteworthy dramatic productions have become recognized throughout the country as leaders in the movement to establish a National Negro Theatre. Their aim is to produce original dramas dealing with the "life of the Negra" and thus to create a dramatic literature representative of the highest ideals and aspirations of the The cases arose out of an attempt by Negro farmers to organize and obtain legal redress against peonage or debt slavery under the share cropping system prevalent in Arkansas. The Negroes were accused of a "plot to massacre whites" and, according to the brief, "a large number of white men armed themselves and rushed to the scene of the trouble and to adjacent regions and began the indiscriminate hunting, shooting and killing of Negroes." "We have distinct evidence," says the brief, "that all Negroes at that time were in danger of their lives, and that two hundred or three hundred men were killed. There can be no question that the citizens of Helena were determined that these men should be convicted, and that they manufactured the evidence for the purpose; and for the court (Arkansas Supreme Court) to say that they cannot assume that they necessarily did not have a fair trial shows clearly that the Supreme Court of Arkansas was it influenced by the same feeling that influenced the leaders of society throughout the region where these tragedies occurred." The brief further recites that the conduct of the case against the convicted Negroes constitutes a series of outrages "than which it is hard to imagine worse." Testimony is cited by H F Sandy and T. K. Jones, the former deputy sheriff of Phillips County, Arkansas, the latter a special agent for the Missouri Pacific Railroad, both white, who were members of the sheriff's pose and swore that the white man, for whose murder the Negroes were convicted, was killed by members of the pose, and that Negroes had nothing to do with the murder. They further swore that they personally whipped the prisoners with straps studded with metal, put strangling drugs in their noatlls and forced the Negroes to sit in an electric chair to force testimony in the manner desired by the mob. Summary of Conditions. The summary of the conditions under which the Arkansas trials were conducted is as follows in the brief. "We have the whole community infamed against the defendants, prepared themselves to lynch them, only refraining from so doing because they are assured by leading citizens that the trial should accomplish the same purposes, a condition of things where no man who was on that jury and had ventured to vote for acquittal or delay could have lived in Phillips County, according to the testimony of one of the men who engaged in the business of manufacturing evidence for the Slate. "We have false statements printed in the newspapers; we have society substantially organized to convict these people; and more than that, we have witnesses deliberately terrorized and forced on pain of death or torture to give false testimony. "We have the testimony of the witnesses themselves that they were so terrorized and that their testimony was false. "We have the testimony of the men who inflicted the torture; we have a mass of evidence which shows, if evidence can show anything, that the defendants never had a fair trial and in fact that they are innocent. "As to some of them there is no evidence as to any act or word except that they were with a gang of Negroes assembled to all purposes for self deceive." bong the organization named menting the state of feeling with the Negroes were con- lare: Richard L.

FOSTER Rev. Thomas S. Donohugh, Associate Secretary for Africa and Southern India for the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 150 Fifth avenue, New York City, sailed accord the Berengaria en route to Africa, for an extended tour of that continent. Mr. Donohugh will inspect at length the various mission stations, large and small, established by his board and denomination in Africa, and make a comprehensive study of the particular needs of each locality. His especial interest is in the progress being achieved toward the development of an indigenous church among the people of Africa, with a constituency thoroughly Christian, with leaders and pastors of their own race and color, supporting and administering their own church in affiliation with the parent church in this country as a part of a federation of Methodism, Indian Leaders for Indian Church. This tendency is now being studied in all fields in which the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Church is operating. It is regarded as a natural outgrowth of world war and the accepted ideal of self-determination. According to Bishop Fred B. Fisher, resident bishop of Calcutta, India, recently in this country, the mechanization of the Methodist Episcopal Church is so constructed that, without any violent readjustment, it may be expanded into a federation of self-supporting, self-administering Methodist India in the kind of Christian League of Nation, Bishop Fisher, who is the youngest bishop of his denomination and recounted as one of its most eloquent orators and far-sighted statesmen, was instrumental in the adjustment of Methodism in India to meet the growing spirit of independence and nationalism which has evolved there in the past three years. ert, making the trip from Algeria, on the north coast of Africa, to Timbuktu, a distance of 2,000 miles, in 21 days.

EGYPTIAN JAILED IN PARLEY SCRAP Lausanne, Jan. 15 (Crusader Service)—Abdul Hamid Said, head of the Egyptian delegation to the Near East peace parley, has been jailed because he resorted to two-labeled diplomacy to settle the problems of his country. Abdul, who weighs 225 pounds and was formerly the Greco-Roman wrestling champion, was arrested and charged with the attempted murder of Mohammed Fani, chief of the Egyptian Press Bureau, as the result of a quarrel in a hotel room over Egyptian independence. Police declare that Abdul was strangling Mohammed when they arrived. N OF GERMANY ROCCAN TROOPS Given Brunt of Task Ruhr Valley — War Looms force was followed by five more columns of cavalry, two battalions of light artillery and 12 tanks. The French placed machine guns at the corners and sent out patrols. At noon, Gen. Henry, commander of the Ruhr, took up his headquarters in the Hotel Kaiserhof, and half an hour later the military officials visited the city officials and officially informed them of the occupation of the city. The French requested billets for 10,000 troops. The French nation, in invading Germany to enforce payment of reparation indemnities, is considered here as inviting another World War, and brings up again the question of French use of Africa as a military reservoir. was quick to note upon his return to India in 1920 as a newly elected bishop the restlessness among Indian leaders of the church there, due to their desire for greater responsibility and self-expression Methodists Give Indian Leaders Chance. Through him a man of full Indian blood, a consecrated Christian and the son of a high-caste Brahman, was made president of Lucknow Christian College; another was put at the head of Collins Institute, Calcutta; others were made district superintendents, and all possible leadership given into their hands. White missionaries from this country are still retained on the faculty of Lucknow Christian College and many more are doing local missionary work under Indian district superintendents. According to Bishop Fisher, this adjustment to new conditions and new progress there has evoked widespread approval among the Indian people and even the British Government itself. Bishop Fisher is a friend of Tagere, Gandhi and many other independence agitators, and has been entertained by the Viceroy, Lord Reading, at Simla, the summer capital. He was recently elected a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, London, because of an expedition of exploration made by him in Thibet from which he brought back much valuable scientific data. He tells also of the tribune from Lord Reading to Methodist missionaries in India, who are credited with founding the liberal system of education now being evolved in India Building African Church for Afri- cana In Africa the missionary work of the Methodist Episcopal Church has been pursued along much the same lines, according to officials of the board.

Burgess, it was testified, presented to T. C. Matthews, county clerk, the note which was purported to have been written by Adam Smith, father of the girl, and which stated that the girl was of age and that the parents consented to the marriage. The clerk was a little dubious about the matter as the girl did not appear to be even 14 years old and told Burgess that he would take care of the matter. Mr. Matthews got in communication with the parents of the girl and Burgess was arrested and lodged in jail. Fraternity to Hold Second Convention Chi Delta Mu to Meet in Newark April 3rd to 6th. The Delta Chapter, Newark, N.J. of the Chi Delta Mu Fraternity, is preparing and making plans for the second national convention of the organization, to be held in Newark, April 3rd to 5th, 1923, inclusive. Delegates and members from all China are the most populous mission fields and have received the largest outlay because of the transition stages through which both peoples are still working, the development of Africa as an important and growing opportunity for spreading Christianity has been emphasized. "For the past two decades and more our mission work in Africa have been going through the slow, early stages of developing the fundamentalals of civilization in isolated parts of the great bush country," said Dr. Donohugh before sailing. "Our veterans there can remember when to see a black man wearing a single garment other than the native loin cloth in their localities was unusual, whereas today in many places scattered throughout the continent there are whole Christian villages with all the essentials of civilization. We have had to educate native preachers and teachers, establish schools, primary and secondary, with many types of vocational training to enable Christian folk to earn a decent livelihood. It is the ultimate purpose of this board to establish an extensive training school and industrial farm for instruction of Christian youth in Africa at every mission station now in existence. However, this is a matter of time and tremendous expense under the many handicaps of distance and location. But the fine results in human progress and devotion shown by many of the black folk in Africa when given an opportunity to improve their condition are now beginning to appear, and Africa is coming forward to be in time one of the great missionary fields of the church, where the destiny of a numerous and promising race may beould along Christian lines." Mr. Donohugh will visit Monrovia and the hinterland of Liberia, where the native chiefs are barging for teachers and preachers of Bishop Matthew S. Clair, the resident Methodist Bishop. He will go to White Plains, where an industrial farm is in process of establishment for mission operation, and inspect the college of West Africa, a Methodist institution at Monrovia. Also he will visit Nana Kru, where Walter B. Williams, Liberia's "Little Giant" has one of the thriving mission establishments of the West Coast. The Kru people are known to be among the most virile and intelligent in those parts and Christianity has spread among them in approximately them in proportionate rapidity. Loanda and the hinterland of Angola, or Portuguese West Africa, will also be visited by Mr. Donohugh, also the Transvaal and Johannesburg, where Methodist missionaries and teachers are maintained to work among the native miners in their compounds. Later Mr. Donohugh will tour Rhodesia, having for his headquarters the famous mission station of Old Uttall, the strongest Methodist mills.

This organization is different from all others in that it restricts its members solely to students and graduates of the allied professions, medicine, dentistry and pharmacy, being a pioneer along these lines. The fraternity was organized at Howard University in 1913, by Drs. E. C. Terry, Wm. Cloud, C. Gloster and W. S. Scott. Since then there have been established fifteen chapters, mostly graduate, with an enrollment of over 1,000, and many more chapters in the making. The object of this organization is civic, scientific research and the brotherhood of man. The three-day session will be devoted to public meetings, secret business of the fraternity and on the evening of the third session, the formal ball, for which elaborate plans are being made.

In the Congo Bolge Mr. Donohouw will inspect the mission work at Elizabethville, Kambovn, and journey by caravan into the depths of the bush for days and weeks, visiting Kabongo, the capital town of the Luba people, and Musumba-wmata-Yamvo, capital of the powerful Alunda folk. At both places, due to the friendship of the paramount chiefs, the Methodists have thriving mission stations with Christian villages surrounding the stations. Mr. Donohugh will be absent from this country about a year on his tour of Africa, and upon his return will report to the Board of Foreign Missions at length upon his findings. This journey of the Secretary for Africa is regarded as indicating the growing importance of Africa as a mission field and to presage more intensive cultivation of it by the Methodists in educational, evangelistic and medical lines in the years to come. DEATH RATE DECREASES (Preston News Service.) Petersburg, Va., Jan. 16.—Death rate here continues to decline each year, according to report of the City Health Department, issued last Thursday. The general death rate of the city being reduced to 16.64 in 1923, as compared with 17.61 in 1921. The infant mortality rate, which was 149 per 1,000 in 1921, was cut down to 106 for 1922. White infant death rate from 97 to 88 and Negro, 210 to 128. The great improvement among Negroes as to living conditions is remarkable. Considering the environments as to conditions of sewage, lighting, housing and streets in Negro sections, one has to marvel at the success made by them in reducing their death rate. ALDERMAN SCORED (Preston News Service) all colored churches. The officers of the advisory board are: The Rt. Rev. Alfred Harding, D. C. Bishop of Washington (P. E.), president; Rev. Henry Strong Huntington (Presh.), associate editor of Christian Work, New York City, secretary, and Dr. Emmett J. Scott (M. E.), secretary-treasurer of Howard University, treasurer. The reports of the officers and the various members of the board indicated that very definite results have been obtained in teaching and helping the Negro pastor. The whole plan of interdenominational cooperation has proved of great value, according to the results already shown. The certain facts which were press Bo' to the advisory board in January, 1928, when it was formed regarding the need for greater effort in the matter of providing a better educated ministry for the colored churches of our country have been definitely confirmed during the past year. The most important matter to be considered was the providing at Howard University of adequate facilities for the thorough training of larger numbers of Negro men for the ministry. This requires a sum of $40,000 to complete the minimum amount for a building as headquarters for the School of Religion of Howard University; the securing of a $200,000 endowment fund to furnish an annual income of $10,000 to enable the school to enlarge its faculty, and the securing of a $200,000 endowment fund to furnish an annual income of $10,000 to promote the important extension work of the School of Religion. The advisory board decided as its first meeting that Howard University was the logical institution where such a work as providing trained Negro ministers might be undertaken, being the only interdenominational seminary in the country doing in a large way work among colored students in the field of religion. It was noted that the Howard University, with over 2,000 students of college and professional grade, is the largest university in the world specializing in the training of colored youth, drawing those students from ten foreign countries and 38 states. The results already obtained show that there is an increased interest in this field and the needed assistance will doubtless be given at an early date. PLANNING TO MOVE COTTON MILLS SOUTH Providence, R. I. Jan. 18.—There is a general movement underway to take the New England cotton mill interests to the Southern States. At present the plan is confined to an extension of the branches in the South of mills that have their principal plants in this section, but there are indications that many new manufacturing units may be added in Southern cotton centers, financed by New England capital. It is said that this will give the cost of transportation of raw cotton to this section and then the finished product back South. Advantages in hours of work allowed by law, in wage scales and tax rates and exemptions are given as the principal causes for the movement which has made itself manifest for the past two or three years. The Appleton Mills of Lowell Mass., and the Janeske Shipbuilding Company of Pawtucket, H. I., have already announced the transfer of their plants to the Southern States. MANAGING EDITOR OF PITTS.

In a beautiful and inspiring way he explained his subject, "Tis Finished."

NOTES We did not know just what a bunch of live wires we do have in the Girl Reserve Department until Friday night at the annual meeting when the Live-Y-Er Club of high school girls massed themselves in a solid phalanx across the front of the room and made the air ring with their yells and songs. Every club and every committee chairman came in for a share of the boosting and an appropriate and fitting yell—many of which, we believe—were composed on the spot. They are an up and coming bunch, those Girl Reserves! The reports made by the clubs, committees and the general secretary brought out many interesting and gratifying facts and some illuminating figures. There were 3,692 entries in the swimming pool during the year and a general attendance in the physical department of 10,729. Three thousand seven hundred and eighty-four people attended religious services in the branch and 4,229 attended club activities in the Girl Reserve department. Down in the cafeteria 143,177 meals were served during 1922. The employment department made 3,498 placements and interviews to the number of 9,065. An interesting statement was made to the inspector that the membership of the "Y" represented ten nationalities and 101 occupations. Altogether, the annual meeting was inspiring and the members went away spurred on to greater endeavor for the coming year. We want to urge the members to attend and make the first membership social of the year a big success. The January Club will furnish hostesses, entertainment and fun for this social. There are several important meetings just ahead for the membership. On the fourth Monday, January 22nd, comes the regular business meeting, at which we must begin talking Spring Festival.

To attack a man when he is down may, as be necessary, but to attack a man when he is like raping a child. In life we all make him. We all have our enemies. We all have our petty jealousies. We see in others an influence which we would destroy in life or after the death of our oppose. But we cannot approve of the NEGRO WORK underhanded attack upon Rev. J. W. H. Eason, he had been murdered by reported to have members of the newspaper's parent organ. We do not question here the authenticity of report in the World that: "From information gathered, the man killed over an alleged woman affair. It is a that he got mixed up in the domestic affair the usual crowd of women whom he frequent and chiefly on which conduct he was disdain and dismissed from the Universal Negro provement Association for ninety-nine year. What if he was killed over an "alleged affair?" Such is possible. But wouldn't it be fairer to the dead man to let these facts be by others? There is little danger of them suppressed and in presenting them to the public this time the editors of the NEGRO WORK placed themselves in the position of a "hit door." "The usual enemy crowd of the Association tunes the news report, "is endeavoring to faction (Rev.

"All those who knew the man intimate not surprised at the news, but cannot but him for his sad end." Yes, we pity Dr. Eason but we pity the occasion and the newspaper that would thus worsen a fallen enemy and a former comrade.

In a letter to the New York World, William Pickens points out the differences between the law as applied in Florida and New Jersey. His letter follows: Rosewood and Orange. Two beautiful names, but almost as different as Hell and Heaven. If anything is needed to show up the folly of mob action, the contrast between mob action in Rosewood, Flan, and legal process in Orange, N. J., supplies that need. In Florida a Negro is accused of "attracking" a white woman (whatever may be hidden under that word), and the mob, savage, furious and hellish, gets busy. What is the result?

There are still livelihood and women who were slaves. The majority colored population in the United States are of a generation removed from slavery. It is valuable to note the advance in learning and civilization it has been made. The "Liberian Methodist" has been compiling lists of the number of Negroes in occupations and professions which require a mental development rather than, or at least equal to, that of the average white man. There are 35,000 Negro school teachers, 40,000 physicians and surgeons, 2,000 lawyers, 237 officers, 575 dentists and 125 chemists. They are all hundred Negro authors and newspapermen. Every year there is a larger number of graduates colleges and professional schools whose students were slaves. Slape prejudice is a curious thing. In some cases it does not exist at all. Among the Latin race it is rare. In most parts of Europe there is no question made in hotels, restaurants, theatres or places of public entertainment because of the favor of a man's or a woman's skin. In some South American countries there is no prejudice against racial intermarriage. In parts of the United States racial prejudice parently on the increase, while in other sections is lessening. Where there have been race riots in northern cities the causes have been economic than social. In the South race wars has used a scarcity of Negro labor in localities infected, which is injurious to the white employ. The fact is certain, that the Negro can work on own salvation better than any one else can work out for him, and that he is making a splendent attempt to do so.

According to the records of the Post Office, within a few thousand of $14,000,000 were sent of this country last year through postal masters to foreign countries. The largest amount went to residents of Great Britain, Japan and Mexico third. The amount of money sent Great Britain was about half of the total amount out of the country. Negro slavery has been abolished in the United States less than sixty years. There are still living men and women who were slaves. The majority of the colored population in the United States are only one generation removed from slavery. It is valuable to note the advance in learning and civilization that has been made. The "Liberian Methodist" has been compiling figures of the number of Negroes in occupations and professions which require a mental development greater than, or at least equal to, that of the average white man. There are 38,000 Negro school teachers, 4,000 physicians and surgeons, 2,000 lawyers, 237 engineers, 578 dentists and 125 chemists. Tile are several hundred Negro authors and newspapermen.

According to the records of the Post Office Depart, within a few thousand of $14,000,000 were sent out of this country last year through postal money orders to foreign countries. The largest amount was sent to residents of Great Britain, Japan came next and Mexico third. The amount of money sent to Great Britain was about half of the total amount sent out of the country.

KNIGHT In Protest By SARAH COLLINS FERNANDIS SO they've sought a new sensation for this modern jazz craze In the ruthless syncapation of those sweet old plaintine lays That the souls of their forefathers, 'neath affliction's heavy rod, Coloned from bitterness of sorrow as they reached for touch with God; When they stole "away to Jesus" at the end of life's hard day And in loneliness of spirit "couldn't hear nobody pray"; Or, with faith at last triumphant, sang of "freedom" that would come, Of "Sweet Charlot," low swinging, sent to bear their spirits home; Or of God who could deliver as in times of sacred lore; Of the chill of death's "deep river," crossed to Canaan's blissful shore! O ye unthinking heritors of this rare and sacred trust— Of a race's soul's outpouring—jazz in pleasure if you must; But give rein to modern fancy for the rhythmic thrills you crave, Leave, O leave untouched, unsullied, those dear songs your fathers gave! —Southern Workman. Book Book Chat MARY WHITE OVINGTON Read more books. Newspapers and magazines are all very well in their way, for recording of transient happenings we could not do without them, but after all the challenge to thought comes chiefly with the leisure, deliberate turning over of the pages of a book. In a good light, settled back in a comfortable chair, we take our time mulling over the reasoning of the essayist or following the fate of the hero. There is no loneliness to one who knows the companionship of books. that is, if there are enough people left in the world to form a club with. Sir Walter Scott's old squib still holds true. On lending a book he said: "And please return it, for I find that white many of my friends are poor arithmeticians they are nearly all of them good bookkeepers." I have, for over a year now, pointed out the important books upon the Negro question and urged my readers to buy them, when they could. I like to think that the book shelves in many homes are growing in number and that publishers are learning that there is a purchasing Negro-public. But there are other means of getting at books than the buying of each one desired. There are book clubs and libraries. To take the public library first. It should be the business of the colored citizen of a town that has a free public library (a really free one) to see that new books on the Negro are bought for it. This, I think any one will find who has tried, is not usually difficult. First, you want to be a good borrower. I mean a steady borrower of books who does not let the volumes become overdue but returns them on time. Having established yourself as a responsible reader, you have only to call the attention of the librarian to the book you want to have her anxious to buy it for you. Librarians are only too glad to find intelligent borrowers. The stories the librarians can tell of unintelligent borrowers are legion; so when they find someone who reads book reviews, who knows of the latest volume on an important subject they want to oblige that person if they possibly can. Back of them is a board that may prove parsimonious, but be sure the librarian counts as meat and drink the intelligent demand by the public for serious literature. The N. A. A. C. P. will shortly publish a list of the books that I have reviewed in Book Chat. By sending a two cent stamp, this list will be mailed to you. Why not take such a list into your public library, see what books the library has purchased and what are missing, and endeavor to have the missing books ordered. It would help you and the reading of the books would educate the public. The second method of getting books is through Book Lovers' Clubs. I imagine such clubs have existed ever since books were printed. Book lovers pool their resources, and buying books, exchange them one with another. People are especially given to this who live in small places. Supposing this past year you have lived where there was no public library, have wanted especially to read "Dark Water." "The Book of Negro Verse." "Birthright." "White and Black." "The Soul of John Brown." and "Harlem Shadows," and have only two dollars in your pocket-book. The way to compass your desire is to get five other people, equally desirous of reading those volumes and equally imprecutions. Then let each buy a volume and your library is complete. It is a lending library, only one volume remaining with you at the last, but it has given you what you desired and has added to the education of six people. Incidentally it will lead to much good fellowship. No one should be invited into a Book Lovers' Club who does not value books, and who does not appreciate the sacredness of their ownership. To borrow a book and not to return it, this is one of the seven deadly sins, and the most common of the seven! Keep such people out of a Book Lovers' Club last triumphant, sang what would come, "low swinging, sent spirits home; and deliver as in times death's "deep river," man's blissful shore! meritors of this rare rest— outpouring—jazz in must; modern fancy for the s you crave.
