TENN. CONVICT KILLED 12 PAGES FOR THREE CENTS VOL. XVII. NO.11 CONSTITUTION MENACED, SAYS J. W. JOHNSON CONSTITUTION MENACED, SAYS J. W. JOHNSON Secretary of National Advancement Association Speaking At Dinner to Congressman F. H. La Guardia Says 14th and 15th Amendments Are Being Nullified in South. If South Fails to See the Light Steps Should Be Taken to Compel Compliance, He Says. Speaking at a dinner in the Hotel Pennsylvania, tendered to Representative F. H. LaGuardia of New York, Saturday night, James Wilson Johnson declared that: "If the Constitution of the United States cannot extend the arm of protection around the weakest and humblest of American citizens as around the strongest and proudest, then it is not worth the paper that it is written on." Mr. Johnson made this statement at the conclusion of an address in which he declared it was open and public knowledge that the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the U. S. Constitution were being nullified in the Southern States and that the Negro was being denied the vote. Alleging the preponderant influence of the South in the U. S. Congress because of the failure to reduce its representation in accordance with the disfranchisement of the Negro, Mr. Johnson said: "In the elections of 1920 it took $2,492 votes in Mississippi to elect two senators and eight representatives. In Kansas it took 570,223 votes to elect exactly the same representation. "In the Presidential election of 1916 the States of Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia cast a total vote for Presidential candidate of 1,670,209. In Congress these States have a total of 104 representatives and 126 votes in (Continued on Page 2) (Continued on Page 2) Ruhr Labor Plan Unknown to U. S. 一 Secretary of State and the French Embassy Issue Statements. (Proston News Service). WASHINGTON, D. C. March 13 —H. rry V. Dougherty, said to be a detective and labor agent, while in France a few weeks ago conceived an idea of increasing his bank roll by supplying American Negro laborers to the French as miners in the Ruhr district on which he would make a net profit of 50 cents a day on each laborer he furnished. He is said to have telegraphed his brother George to round up three to five thousand Negroes from the West Virginia and Pennsylvania coal regions for transportation to France. Secretary Hughes authorized a statement last Friday night that he never had heard of a plan to transport American Negroes to Europe to work in the coal mines in the Ruhr. It was stated that no such proposition, or any of similar nature, had been discussed with Mr. Hughes by Ambassador Joseph rand or anyone else. At the French Embassy, it was declared that nothing was known of the Dougherty plan to send miners to the Ruhr. A statement was authenticated that any announcement by the proposal he had laid before Secretary Hughes the French Ambassador was pure fabrication. Belated Pension for Ex-Slaves in S. Carolina COLUMBIA, S. C., March 12. —The House last week passed the Johnstone bill, providing pensions for faithful ex-slaves who stood by their masters during the Civil War. The bill had already passed the Senate. The bill provides that slaves who served the State and their masters in the Confederate Army shall be granted pensions under virtually the same conditions as those now paid to Confederate veterans. Scarborough Tells of Colonel Young The Venerable Educator Recommends Monument For Famous Soldier. Memorial services for the late Col. Chas. Young were held at the 135th Street Y. M. C. A., last Sunday by the Col. Chas. Young Post of the American Legion and the V. W. The principal speaker was Prof. W. S. Scarborough, president emeritus of Wilberforce University. Prof. Scarborough lauded Col. Young for his sterling Americanism and his unselfish devotion to the colors, even at a time when he had been denied a chance to serve actively in the late war, apparently for no other reason than his color. "He loved his country so much." Scarborough said, "that at no time could anyone make him utter a single word of reproach against it." The speaker told also of some of the early struggles of Col. Young at West Point, from which he was graduated. He told how the three earliest colored men to enter that institution were forced out by their white comrades, and of how one of them, Whittaker, was found strapped in a chair with his ears cut. "There were three colored graduates of West Point," he said. "Flipper Alexander and Young, and all three had a very hard time." "Col. Young," he continued, "apent eight years at Wil伯力cer; four years before he went to the Spanish-American War, where he served with distinction, and four after. He was ever devoted to his country and the cause of his race. During the war, Col. Young, although retired, came to Wil伯力cer and prepared the young men for the Officers' Training Camp, without remuneration. He always did his duty, not only as man, but as man of the highest ideals. "He was, not only a soldier, but a poet and musician. He loved art, music, literature and devoted a great deal of his time to them. Well, may not only his race but his country be proud of him. Advocates Young Monument. "Congress found the time when it was busiest to pass a bill for the erection of a 'Mammy' monument. Col. Young deserves a monument in this city or at Washington." Captain Allan C. Beane, who served with Colonel Young in Africa, told vividly of the days preceding his death. Others speakers were N. A. Burrell, Dr. Bontex and a former state commander of the American Legion. Carroll Clark sang "Oh, Dry Those Tears," the favorite song of the late Colonel Young. AGED WOMAN DIES OF GAS POISONING Miss Annie Williams, for fifty years a faithful and devoted friend and servant of the family of Edmund Penfold, 10 East 40th street, was found dead in her room last Friday from gas poisoning. She is reputed to be wealthy. Miss Williams was born in Cambridge, N. Y., in April of 1848 and came to New York City many years ago. She is survived by a nephew and a niece, Miss Mary Howard. The remains of the aged woman were taken to Saratoga by James I. Gant of this city, who has known her for many years. GET8 JUDGMENT FOR $200. Thomas May, 61 W. 125th St. He given a judgment for $200 bringing the Depta Trucking to damages to his car when the defendants automobile crashed into it at Reade and West St. Amsterdam News Goes Without Food Four Days in Jail PHILADELPHIA. March 12.—Mrs. Elizabeth Perry fell asleep on the lounge in the front room of her home. 2416 North Warnock street, last Saturday night. Close beside her was a lighted gas stove. Mrs. Perry became restless while asleep and kicked so vigorously that she upset the gas stove and detached the connecting rubber tube from the chandelier. Simultaneously the light went out and the gas, unchecked, flowed freely into the dark room, where it soon had Mrs. Perry in an unconscious state. Other occupants of the house heard the groans of the woman below and smelt the gas, immediately the police were notified, and the woman was conveyed to the hospital where she was treated, after which, for some unexplained rea- son, she was taken to the 30th district station house and and turned over to the matron and placed in a cell and a charge of intoxication lodged against her. That was the last heard of Mrs. Perry until the following Wednesday night, she being to all intents and purposes lost to the world. It was intended to discharge her after she became sober, as there were no other charges against her. After her name on the slate was written the words "to be discharged," but the note was blurred, and the words "to be" were accidentally rubbed off. Consequently no one even looked in the room, and the heavy outside cell door was closed, her cries, if she made any, were not heard. When discovered by Lieut. Lawson the woman was not in a seriel condition despite her long fast Lawson immediately ordered a generous beetroot, dinner, with many extra portions of vegetables. Mrs Perry ate heartily, and when a matron took her to a trolley car to send her home, she was apparently perfectly satisfied. Superintendent of Police Mills ordered Frank Hess, William Miller, Jr., and William Adams, Jr. house sergeants, who were on duty during the woman's interment, to appear before a special board of inquiry, which will make an investigation. Turnkens Peter Dorset and Arthur Me'd and Mrs. Mary E. Tieman, police matron, will also be asked to appear before the board. Mrs. Perry is a new comer to the city. She and her husband, after arriving here, a short time ago bought a home at 807 S. 20th street. This house they sold and bought the smaller one where they now live, on the Warnock street. In an interview she said she didn't know what kind of a place she had been in, but it was a very small room. Colored Woman and Chinaman Are Wed Magistrate Weil Unites Felecia Sembrao and Henry Maroon Henry Marpoon, 24 years old, of 90 Henry street, a Chinese, and Felecia Sambrao, 24, colored, of 76 Christie street, were married last Friday in the Court of Domestic Relations. The groom presented his wife with a $2 box of chocolates for a wedding gift. In the annals of the Domestic Relations Court and believed to be in the history of the city, this is the first recorded marriage of its kind. Marpoon is a native of Hong Kong, ten years in America; his bride is of the British West Indies. They appeared in the court and accosted Mrs. Agnes Fay, representative there for the Catholic Protective Society. Felecia, as spokesman, explained that they had plighted their teeth and would like to be married, but knew not how to go about it. Mrs. Fay consulted Magistrate Edward Well, who said that a marriage license was the first prerequisite, and agreed to make one of the two if they would show him that paper. Piloted by Mrs. Fay and Nathan Goodman, a lawyer, the two repaired to the Municipal Building and obtained the license. Again piloted by Mrs. Fay and Mr. Goodman, they returned to the Court. Winehead by Mrs. Fay and Mr. Woodman, Magistrate Well performed the ceremony. They then set out in search of an apartment NEW YORK, N. Y., WEDNESDAY, MARCH 14, 1923 Even Nine Wives Did Not Kill "Doc" Young DALLAS.

Evan at his age, "Doc" uses neither cane nor glasses and expects to live ten years more. Judge Davies at Appomattox Club State That District Will Be Re-apportioned in Judge Davies was the principal speaker at the regular meeting of the Appomattox Republican Club last Thursday night. His subject, "Party Procedure in Politics," explained party organization from the formation of a district club right up to the election of a President. He was very much in favor of small district clubs, and looked upon them as the foundation stones of party organization. The Judge commented upon the present reflection of colored voters from the Republican party and said that if they had any grievance they ought to tell them to the leaders and give them an opportunity to straighten things out. The reappointment of districts he said would take place in 1925, and expressed his belief that the colored people would then have their own district. This, he thought, was no more than right, going to the rapid progress the race had made and the large settlement which they have in this community. He also looked upon the recent appointment of Mr. Charles W. Anderson as a good thing for the party, as it would help to restore some of the lost confidence which was so prevalent in the last election. A discussion will feature the meeting of the club on the political subdivisions of New York County tomorrow night. The president, Col. Charles W. Fillmore and Hon. John C. Hawkins, former Asseyman, will speak. CONKLIN NEXT TO ADDRESS APPOMATTOX Former Deputy Attorney General Robert S. Conklin, leader of the 1st Assembly District, will speak at the Appomattox Republican Club on Thursday on the subject "The District Leader and the Political Problems of the 21st District." Following demand on the part of colored Republicans for increased voice in party affairs, which demands have gone forward with the endorsement of Conklin, his address before Appomattox will have peculiar significance. Formal presentation of the requests of the colored voters was made to Samuel S. Koenig, Republican County Chairman on Saturday by the Committee of Nine. Musical numbers will be rendered by Miss Beatrice Michaels and Mrs. M. L. Baker. The meetings of the organization are held in the Association of Trade and Commerce, 2370 Seventh Avo. WILLIAM SHERRILL IS SENT TO PENITIARYI William Sherrill, 32, of 2511 7th avenue, who was convicted by a jury before Judge Nott in General Sessions for conducting an employment agency without a license, has been sent to the penitentiary for not less than six months and not more than three years. Sherrill has been convicted twice before for similar offences, in the Court of Special Sessions. ASK $1,000; CEILING FELL. Fatale Knight, 114 W. 137th St. and Laura Jackson, 250 W. 138th St. have died actions for $1,000 each against Samuel Hutkoff. They formerly lived at 27 W. 133d St., which premises are owned by the defendant, and allege that last September through his negligence in failing to make repairs in their apartments the ceiling fell and struck them. Former Auditor Garcia Discharged By Court Former Auditor-General of U.N.I.A., Dismissed By Magistrate. Ell Garcia, former Auditor-General of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, was arraigned before Magistrate Frothingham in the Washington Heights Court last Monday, on the complaint of Marcus Garvey, who alleged that Garcia had lained bad checks. The case was dismissed. Garvey presented a number of checks which he said, Garcia had drawn to his personal account and then cashed them on the U. N. I. A. at a time when Garcia had no funds in the bank. Garcia was held two months ago in $500 bail for General Sessions charged with the theft of $40 of the association's money. The magistrate this week wished 40 such why this other charge was just now being made. Garvey replied that the checks were recently discovered following an investigation of Garcia's accounts. He further declared that the defendant "had embezelled over $10,000" of the money that had been entrusted to him. Counsel for Garcia in making a motion for dismissal repelled that Garcia was using Garvey for $2,300 for salary, and that the case would be heard in the Supreme Court the following day. He also said that Garvey must have known that the checks were bad all along, and declared that Garvey had done nothing about it until his client had brought suit to recover his wages. Black Star Musicians Sue For Overdue Pay Jury Awards William Isles and Fellow Musicians $1700 Marcus Garvey, the U. N. I. A. and the African Committees League were in court again last week, when the suit of William Isles, leader of the Black Star Line Band, went to trial in City Court, for the overdue salaries of himself and other musicians associated with him. The president general of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Marcus Garvey, agreed the band had missed out on wages, but contended it should sue the Black Star Line instead of the association. The Black Star Line is defunct. The band severed relations with the association last fall. It had been playing every night for meetings in Liberty Hall, but objected when asked to play at a Democratic meeting in Liberty Hall. A verdict for $1,700 in favor of the musicians was brought in by the jury. Another Arrest Made in Double Roof Murder Another colored man has been arrested and indicted for the murder of two white men on the roofs of buildings in West 59th street last September. He is George Oliver, 22 years old, and, according to the police, the leader of the gang. Oliver was found at his home in the basement of 15 East 107th street. Detective Sergeant Manning, who has been working on the case, made the arrest. Louis Rothstein was lured to the top of the building at 399 West 69th street on September 15 and strangled with his necktie and robbed. Samuel Korns met a similar fate on the roof of 321 West 69th street. The robbery was so thorough that even the shoes of the victims were stolen. Leon Singleton and Beatice Pernyneather, both colored, are under arrest for the crime. Beatrice, say the police, was the lure. The police is alleged to have served prison terms at Elmira and Sing Sing. He was arraigned in the Count of General Sessions last week. TRIED TO GIVE SELF UP; KILLED HASHVILLE, Tenn., March 12. — Louis Douglas, who shot and severely wounded five persons who were attending a death watch at Spencer, Van Buren County, Thursday morning, was shot to death at the home of a tenant on the property of Sam Hasto, one of the victims, by armed deputies late Saturday afternoon. Last night Douglas entered the home of a white man named Manus. He asked Manus to "fix it up" with the Hastons. He said he would return tonight. Deputies were notified and secreted themselves in the house. Douglas knocked on the door at 6:30 o'clock. He entered the room still carrying his shotgun. He was riddled with bullets. MECHANICS BANK $200,000 SHORT RICHMOND, VA., March 13.—The certified public accountants, employed by the Receivers of the Mechanics Savings Bank, who had been in that institution since July 18, 1922, report the shortage to be about or over $200,000. It is said there are more than two hundred thousand dollars worth of assets available which can be placed to the credit of the institution and in the face of this report there is no valid reason why the Mechanics Bank should not be reopened.

Norman, a dentist with offices at 101 West 137th street. Eugenie Griffin, 124 West 135th street, was awarded a verdict of $100, by a jury in the Seventh District Court. last week, for extracting the wrong tooth when he went to Dr. Norman several years ago. Griffin had a toothache and went to the dental office of Dr. Norman. He asserted the dentist was told to extract the first molar, but had taken out the wrong one. The good tooth that was removed was shown to the dentist and the bad one that had also been taken out, was exhibited at the trial. This is the second time the issues of this lawsuit have been in the Municipal Court. In September, 1921 a jury before Justice Genung decided for the dentist. Griffin appealed to the verdict and the Justices of the Appellate Term reversed it, allowing the plaintiff $20 costs and ordering the case restored to the calendar for trial. GARVEYITES CAUSE UPROAR IN SOUTH NEW ORLEANS, Ln., March 12. All self-respecting citizens of color here are up in arms against the local branch of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Marcus Garvey's organization, as the result of the infamous letter to Mayor McShane in which a group of women, members of the U. N. I. A. went on record as upholding and endorsing Jim Crow laws, declaring that "we like your Jim Crow laws in that they defend the purity of races." The letter pleaded that the mayor lift the police surveillance to which, ever since the murder of Dr. Easton, the Garvey organization Nearly Five Hundred Letters and Telegrams Expressing Approval Of His Re-Appointment Have Been Received At His Residence in 132nd Street. Judging from the number of letters and telegrams received by the Hon. Charles W. Anderson, reappointed Collector of Internal Revenue for the Third New York District, President Harding made no mistake in his selection. Senators, Congressmen, judges, Cabinet officers, financiers, journalists, business and professional men, have kept postmen and telegraph boys busy carrying messages of approval and congratulation. At his residence, 156 West 132nd street, it is reported that nearly five hundred such messages have been received.

The State of New York alone cast a total vote for Presidential candidates of 1,706,354, a vote within 120,000 of all the votes cast by the above states, and yet New York has only 43 representatives and 45 votes in the electoral college, against their 101 representatives, and 125 votes in the electoral college." The Negro, declared Mr. Johnson, was the test of American democracy and, according to its treatment of the Negro that democracy would prove to be a success or a failure. The effect of disfranchising and oppressing the Negro has already proved disastrous to the South, he asserted. "In the whole South the so- Three Italians Held For Felonious Assault Great excitement prevailed in the neighborhood of 130th Street and Fifth Avenue last Sunday morning when a man, later identified as Samuel Vituelc of 73 Bloomfield Avenue, Newark, N. J., rushed out of an apartment building at 49 West 130th Street, his hands and clothing covered with blood, and started to run west on 130th Street, pursued by a gathering mob. At Lonox Avenue the fugitive turned north until he reached 131st Street, then he ran East toward Fifth Avenue. Here an unknown colored man threw a milk bottle at Vituelc. It struck him on the head and brought him to the ground. Patrolman Edward J. Koch, who was in the vicinity, placed Viltucc under arrest and went to the apartment at 49 W. 150th Street, where he found Viltucc wife and James Longo of 17 Grand Street, Newark, N. J., lying unconscious in pools of water, escaped from her husband and was living in the apartment with his children. All are Italians. Vittuel was himself badly cut up, and all three were taken to Harlem Hospital. Charges of felonious assault have been placed against the three. They were held without ball in the Washington Heights Court and then sent back to the hospital.

The officer said that Cotton had declared a, the time of the arrest that his opponent, who escaped had slipped the gun into his pocket. WAGE INCREASE HINTED (President News Service). YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, March 13. Because of the difficulty to secure sufficient common labor to man the industrial plants in this valley, rumors are current that the common labor rate in the Mahoning Valley is to be increased from 36 to 40 cents and possibly 42 cents an hour by April 1. called purity of the ballot has been preserved at the cost of deance of the Constitution, perversion of law, injustice and violence practiced upon a weaker group, he said. "The result has been that the South is internected dead and politically rotten. It this experiment in super-democracy had resulted in one one-nineteenth of what was promised, there might be justification for it, but the result has been that not only are Negroes denied the vote in the South, but that white men dare not express their honest opinions, political or otherwise." Mr. Johnson said further, that if the South failed to see the light, then in the interest of the whole country "steps should be taken to compel compliance with the Constitution, and that should be done through the enforcement of the Fourteenth Amendment, which calls for a reduction in representation in proportion to the number of citizens in any state denied the right to vote." Other speakers at the dinner to Mr. LaGuardia, besides Mr. Johnson, were: Senator Smith W. Brookhart, of Iowa; Mayor Hylan, of New York City City; James A. Frear. Representative in Congress from Wisconsin, and Miss Elizabeth Marbury. Mary Garrett Hay, President of the Woman's City Club of New York, presided.

Don't Spoil Your Child's Hair By Washing It When you wash your child's hair be careful what you use. Many soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much free alkali, which is very, injurious, as it dries the scaip and make the hair brittle. The best thing to use it Mulsified coconut oil shampoo, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It is very cheap and beats anything else all to pieces. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsified in a cup 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 rich creamy lather, cleanses thoroughly and rinses out easily. The hairdries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy to manage. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff. You can get Mulsified coconut oil shampoo at any drug store, and a few ounces will last everyone in the family for months. Be sure your druggist gives you Mulsified.--Adult. HATS For WOMEN MISSES & CHILDREN We Make Our Own models SALE ALL WEEK New Models Daily, from $1.98 to $6.08 C. A.

A prevailing theory is that Hub- bard who has been incapacitated since his release from the ramy, in ja fit of insanity killed the women land burned the house, The family had no quarrels among theselves and were well thought of by white people living nearby. Another theory has been advanced that somebody olse committed the crime ‘and chased Mubbard down the well.

Lay- fog claim to the championship ‘among colored teams of the world (though a crimp was put into this Siam wher Leend! lost in Xenla, D,, not very long ago), this bunch at basketball players led by “Cum” Posey have left no stone unturned tn preparation of stopping the wiu- ning streak of the team represent- Ing the McMahon Bros, Posey’s claim to the champion- ship came from successfully put- ting a crimp into the aspirations of the colored teams then playing under the rules of the Amateur Athletle Association of the United States. Although the wily Pitts: burgh leader has put in the claim for World's champlonship honors. he has absolutely refused to meet the Commonwealth, on grounds ail followers of sport will admit to be fair when we disclors the fact that the Commonwealths ate bona: tide profossionals and as such play professional rules, The Pittsburgh players insist that amateur rules govern the con- test in which they will engage Fri day night in “Smoketown.” and the McMahons, feoling confident that their team can defeat Pascy even though departing from their usual form of playing, accepted the terms, We aro not as confideat tg the MeMahons in the matter and would like to go on rocord as stat. ing that In the event of the New York team winning from the Pitts- burghtans on Friday night they will be accomplishing something ot which they can feci unusually proud. Regardless of the outcome of the contest in Pennsylvania, the teams “aieooemaiaect-right here in our amidst on Sunday night, March 18th, this coming Sunday night, and for the benefit of the big following ot the local players they will aguin face the players for whom “Cum” Posey hus demanded his pound ot flesh, Falr at all times, regardtess of how the game is going, the visit. ‘ors will enjoy the pleasure of ap peuring before a throng that will rive them their share of the ap plause, something which we can not say for Pittsburgh. For the benefit of the thousands who will be interested In the out come of Friday night's battle, the Amsterdam News will again Sash forth the first news of a big ath jetic event among our people by lights. In the windows of this of fice the red light will be seen fn the event of victory by the Pitts burghlans, while ff the New York ers are successful In overcoming the many bandicaps piaced and tc be placed in thelr way, the blue Vight will tell the story of how the} fought vallantly and won. ‘The Amaterdam News will also be the first popular local paper on the streets carrying the story of bott games. PREPARING FOR LOENDI In basketball, Ike in everything else, we must expect mistakes that will at times mean much to 2 team hitting the trail for the top and in this the Commonwealth Big Five must be considered in spite of the fine playing of our boys since the team started. Dropping a game to Perth Amboy on Sunday night that would have been theirs could be traced to the failure of judiciously using men in the lineup. ‘Minus “Hop” Hubbard on Sun- day ‘night ‘at the Commonwealth Casino, the boys lost to Perth Am- boy by 2 score of 33-31 in a game which found them with tho safe margin of 25-15 in the first half, putting the bulk of the work tor the second half on the shoulders at the visitors had they planned thott battle as {t should have been planned, : ‘On Saturday night they played the Orlentats ia New Rochollo, a leam noted for making it hard for the best of them, and both Slocum and “Hobbard should have been saved for Sunday‘ night's same, Captain Jenkins using his author. ity to send “Strangler” Forbes and “Stretch” Grast against the Ori- antals, from whom they won by 2 jeore ‘of 3410, While it is true ‘hat Posey is Mourlshing great fear at losing to the Commonwealths, the ‘New Zorba wat find that are 0 t tho country’s they Srily plager when they face Posey, not forgetting each and syory man on the Loend! team, and whilo readers of this paper might have formed the opinion that Com- momwealth can Walk over ‘Loendi ="S SATURDAY HIGHT . : Renaissance Casino siusles deep La ‘Sorenadert intermad” Jone “Bann, Olrector. eG naetae, Meenise PI cis diacyl ie lb cueing ernoe sth EY oe ROP one of those seats of learning catering to Negro youth In this country. ‘who also acts as the coach of the American Legion team of Xenia, Ohlor ‘is now having a taste of “Cum” Posey.

The Alpha man remarked on the tactics being used by this same Posey and cited instances of “rough stuff” that finally decided both St. Christopher and Alpha to steer clear of this bunch. ‘The Spartans also had their taste of the Pittsburghlan manner of slaying basketball as advanced by Posey's team in the watch grabbing incident at Manhattan Casino. We reprociice for the Soneft of cur readers correspondence passing between Posey and the coach of the Xenia team especially as we know only too well the circumstances: gurrounding the playing and booking of teams between these teams, a confession that will make the good “Cum” squirm again when he realizes that though far removed there are many who subscribe with me to the motto of fair play in athletics, Read and again weep: Me, Romeo L.

Well, so as to help the little girt in her promise not to proiong the discussion | shalt confine myself to agreenty with her when she says the Blue Belts don't Import players from any neighboring cities (except of course Pittsburgh and New Jersey), then I shall proceed: to answer all her queations.

What foot in these days would refuse $5 for 49 minutes’ work? 1 didn't blame them near as much as | did Huis- woud for offering it to them, No. 2. Was it fair to take away all the credit from Miss Harris, ete.? No, it would not be fair, if publicity of any player was all that was considered, but 1 designed 'my advertising not for that purpose but with a view to box office receipts Then, too, Vivian knew too well what | thought of her playing to worry about that small time argument. No. 3. Old Mr. Belt, while managing the Deers, ever consider ak. Ing B, Jacobs or H. Elfasen to play on an all star team? Emphatically No. On one occasion when the Joan of Arcs called off a game, Hule- woud offered to get an all star team to take their place, telling me that two of his girls stood ready to play for $3 each and | refused absolutely to pay anybody to play on an all star team. The Salem Crescents Glris played the game with Estelle Richardaon in their line up. The Deers have never had to play an all star team, No.4. Where was Miss Winston when the team she Is supposed to be a regutar of was losing three games? Well, dear girl, Miss Winston was at the Commonwealth playing i one of the games the team lost and at home in Washington during the other two, So you will seo I don't deny the fact that Miss Winaton lives In Washington even though { still maintain she was a Deer. President Wilson voted in Jersey City ail the time he was tiving in Washington, Ne 5.

Whitney and Tutt, at the head of Shuffle Along Company Number Three, got off to one of the biggest starts made around here with a company that worked heroically to live up to the high standard set by the original. When the curtain went up every seat in the theatre was occupied with standing room about six deep and apparently all hands enjoying the work of the principals and chorus. The humor of Whitney and Stewart stood out and kept the house in good spirits throughout. Homer Tutt, always good to look at again stood out as a straight and the brothers need entertain no doubts of their ability to successfully lead the aggregation under them to success wherever they appear. All in all and everything taken into consideration, Shuffle Along Number Three should do good business while at the Lafayette. The cast of characters in this show includes: Whitney and Tutt, at the head of Shuffle Along Company Number Three, got off to one of the biggest starts made around here with a company that worked heroically to live up to the high standard set by the original. When the curtain went up every seat in the theatre was occupied with standing room about six deep and apparently all hands enjoying the work of the principals and chorus. The melodies which did much in helping to make the original show the success it was were received in a manner reminiscent of the days down on 63rd Street, although they did not boast that swing and completeness of the trained orchestra that the personal supervision of those who themselves created the numbers, which added to their bank rolls, put into it.

The principals, giving their version of the parts made famous by others, hung as near to what was done in days not so very long ago and were received with a warmth which should give them inspiration for even better work in the future. The male element were far above the females, the singing not at all. In keeping with what we must unconsciously associate with those who had the opportunity of first appearing in the show. With certain ones their work verged on the imateurish but with time and better familiarity with what they are supposed to do, they will undoubtedly improve. "How Come," New Musical Show, Continues to Draw Big in Phila. Hunter Starring At Head Of Offering Which Has Been Meeting With Unusual Success For the Past Eight Weeks. I don't know how true it is, but putting one and one together and making them two. I am inclined to believe the stories going the rounds that when "How Come," the new musical comedy show by Eddie Hunter, was first seen by John T. Gibson, the little wizard of the theatrical world, he offered the producers contracts for ten weeks. I happened to be present one day last week here when Gibson, after witnessing the remarkable manner in which the show continues to please Philadelphia, made contracts for the show to remain this week, after playing four successful weeks at his Dunbar Theatre. over a number that brings them both the big hand, but, as stated before, this is done as a bit. To successfully attract the attention of Broadway, it is necessary that Hunter be allowed to continue a story that started off a big but lost in the shuffle. An up-to-date musical comedy show is not a revue with which liberties can be taken, and if those behind the venture don't believe this, let them come into the best theatre in New York and see who's right. Hunter should be given the opportunity to put through his ideas, as it has been conclusively proven that what he has so far done is what the people want. We hope to again view the production when the necessary changes are made. I don't know how true it is, but, putting one and one together and making them two, I am inclined to believe the stories going the rounds that when "How Come," the new musical comedy show by Eddie Hunter, was first seen by John T. Gibson, the little wizard of the theatrical world, he offered the producers contracts for ten weeks. I happened to be present one day last week here when Gibson, after witnessing the remarkable manner in which the show continues to please Philadelphia, made contracts for the show to remain this week, after playing four successful weeks at his Dunbar Theatre. John T. did this after advertising matter had been out announcing other attractions at his Dunbar Theatre for this week, but he didn't bat an eye after giving the matter a little thought and deciding to hold the show over for the present week. What we saw of "How Come" we liked immensely, and would not kick if the opportunity presented itself for me to witness the show again. That which stands out prominently is the comedy. That Hunter has written a better book than any of those in the race for Broadway is seen with out any glasses, but, being a musical offering, we fear that the lack of appropriate music will do that which has been done so often in recent days, and that is to make this show one of the impossible ones seeking favor at the hands of that floating population which make the "Big Street" what it is. Since writing the above, we were advised that the show has been held for another week, make the record six successive weeks at the Dunbar. Lincoln Has Fine Picture Gloria Swanson scored a decided triumph in her latest Paramount production, "My American Wife," the big screen attraction which will feature the picture part of the Lincoln Theatre show the latter half of this week commencing Thursday. Miss Swanson has the role of a young Kentucky woman with a love of racing. The scenes are located in Argentine. Natalie Chester (Miss Swanson) attends a studio party given by Manuel La Tassa (Antonio Moreno), at his studio. Natalie is inducted by a guest and Manuel goes to her rescue. Manuel is wounded in a duel with a rival for the love of the young American girl, and she acts as his nurse. This leads up to several intensely dramatic situations, all of which serve to make "My American Wife" a decidedly interesting picture. The love element is strong and admirably developed. The comedy is not only good, and all those responsible for dispensing the fun are running true to form, and Hunter leads an array of comedians who we believe would come into their own if song numbers can be put into the piece in keeping with the story of the book. One or two numbers stand out, but the others are so foreign to what is being done we are surprised that those responsible fail to see the weak link in an otherwise strong chain which will leave their anchor at the bottom of the ocean while their ship is tossed about on the theatrical ocean of uncertainty. Miss Swanson is unusually charming in this production. Antonio Moreno, after a short absence from the screen, is quite effective as leading man in the role of Manuel La Tusa, while Geno Corrado does a striking piece of work as the despicable Pedro de Grosso. Hunter's work has taken Philde delphians by storm and he is singled out for particular notice by the large audiences. George Cooper as straight is doing a clever piece of work that will bring him into his own if the show over hits the "Big Street," while Amon Davis is taking advantage of many opportunities to appear at his best. Andrew Tribble continues a riot of fun as "Ophelia Snow," while Andrew Fairchild and Alec Lovejoy are putting over some spendable work and remains an unbeatable combination. The work of George Lane is also standing out. That sweet singer of charming personality, Miss Blanche Thomas has joined the show and when he tied into her right position will be the most wonderful addition to the cast. With Richardson, she puts AT THE FRANKLIN THEATRE. Looking over what manager Eckert of the Franklin Theatre has to offer his patrons, we cannot help but remark that he has surely brought us a very strong card and it would pay the picture fans to make the trip around to the popular little house to view some of the best in the picture world. Among the features offered are "The Devil's Match" which will pit in four days at the Franklin comming Thursday. This is said to be one of the best pictures made by colored artists and is heralded all over as one that will more than please those showing it. Robbie Smart one of the youngest color actors in the business and Robert Bruno are featured in this film. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WED., MARCH 14. 1923 Theatres and Other Amusements About Things Theatrical "Sometimes You're Up, and Sometimes You're Down." True as life and when Whitney and Tutt emphasized this in song in their last offering to colored people called "Up and Down," it struck home because they had drawn from life one of Dame Fortune's moods which keep many of us buffeting on the uncertain sea of life. Speaking of Byars leaving Washington could not but recall our trips to the District of Columbia when Andrew Thomas boasted the powers of a Czar at the Howard Theatre. Success in those days could be read in letters of gold over the main entrance of the Howard and we never thought that we would see the time when Andrew would attempt the management of another theatre only to make room for one who never enjoyed the opportunity he had at the Howard. Apparently Andrew was "Up" in the days when he managed the Howard but news from the theatrical world which Richard Thompson dominated with his facile pen up to the time of his death tells us that Andrew is "Down," speaking from a theatrical standpoint. We believe that history is again in the making down at Daly's Theatre, where the Millen-Lyle Sible-Blake combination made their big hit. This week Alex Rogers and Luckeyth Roberts are in the spotlight, having written the score for "Go-Go," the white musical production which New York Welcome with open arms after the reports came in from Atlantic City of the business they played to. Mr. Rogers is one of the most brilliant men of color in the theatrical world, a man whose name should never be associated with these cheap fly-by-nights who will never ascend the rostrum and occupy the same seat with him if left with people of intelligence and understand, and while his name has not been heard often in recent years, he still remains head and shoulders above the mob. Mr. Roberts, who has been associated with him for some time, is one of our most promising composers and if we had it from no other source than his partner we would be inclined to believe the high words of praise to the ability of one who is still studying, especially at a time when most others firmly believe they have "arrived." In our next issue we hope to have a few words to say on this new show with which two of our own are so closely connected. Knowing these men as we do, we feel confident that what they have to offer Broadway will be received with acclaim. "Go-Go" opened on Monday night to a fine audience. Whitney and Tutt appearing at the head of a show not written by themselves also places us in a mood to recall the old days when we looked for their coming with the delightful little shows which we here in the big city welcomed and were satisfied to send them on their way to the road with whoops of good wishes. Possibly they were ahead of their time; we suspect so, for if we controlled more theatres and supported them the offerings of Whitney and Tutt would come to us with that thread of race appeal which would do much to add to the enthusiasm of those working for the recognition of our people. Today we find ourselves going into the Lafayette Theatre to see them at the head of a show created by others and which will place them in the position of being forced to stand the comparison between those who so successfully gave to the world "Shuffle Along" and themselves. We do not by the longest stretch of the imagination mean to instate they will not be a success. We feel that they will but they are so closely interwoven with their own we will not be satisfied until they again head their own company and continue to reach out for that success which will some day be theirs. Knowing them as we do, we were very much disappointed when in the race for Broadway they were forced to allow others to place them at the head of something which smacked of the "revue" instead of allowing them to work out their show as their experience and intelligence had previously proved they could do. We wish them success in "Shuffle Along Number 3" as we feel that such would be the means of giving them their opportunity for something big along Smart Set lines. With the experience gained through years of combating forces bent on accomplishing his ruin, John T. Gibson has again come through with a ten strike when he engaged Rufus Byars to transport his belongings and join his forces in running the Standard and Dunbar Theatres in Philadelphia. Those who know John T. will tell you that he is a business man first and a show man after. Some ten years ago when John hustled all the good acts on the small time to the North Pole while his enemies would be wringing their hands and tearing their hair, we used to make the trip to the Quaker City and even in those days John always told the writer he was going to some day control one of the best theatres for colored people in the country. Carried away by the confidence which came from energy and ability, we never doubted Gibson and when we arrived in Philadelphia to be with him at the opening of the Standard Theatre many years ago, he simply smiled and said it was the first brick in the foundation to better things. Gibson during the years he has been in power at the Standard ran the house successfully and members of the opposite race have found him just as sharp as their own with none of the vacillating tendencies which usually mark the brother in possession of a "colored house," nor is he carried away with his position far above the average in life. Last week he asked us to meet him at the Standard upon our arrival in the City of Brotherly Love, but we refused and so set our plans to meet him in his new house, the Dunbar. John suspected our motive and laughed heartily as we remarked on the generalship that brought him a house built with the idea of pushing from the theatrical horizon John T. and the Standard. He had his fight, for he bucked a corporation backed by two thousand stockholders, but John lived to see the day when he played first fiddle at the signing of the Treaty of Versailles Recognizing the worth of Rufus Byars, Gibson recently insisted that Rufus leave the District of Columbia and pitch his tent in Phila. delphia. We understand that Byars will be quite some peg in John's wheel of fortune which will soon be riding on to bigger things and Byars will find above all other things, that John T. Gibson is indeed the personification of that motto of comedian Eddie Hunter which nightly rings through the Dunbar and causes a big laugh and that is, John is a "business man." They say that comparisons are odious. However, we note in reading the March number of the Messenger Magazine two of the intellectual whales while admitting the odiousness of attempting to compare and then shooting home your argument, also state that such at times tends to drive firm a point. Such being true and those mastodons of the sea furnishing an excuse for comparisons, a minnow like us will be excused for retaining a mind picture of the delightful little "Shuffle Along" while speaking of "How Come." Did we not know Eddie Hunter as well as we do we would tremble for his future after reading the namby-pamby stuff and the same old bunk even in what is considered an authoritative theatrical journal, but Hunter will rise superior and refuse to allow this junk of a half a century ago when Negroes were emerging from slavery to lull him into the sleep of satisfaction, feeling that he is fully prepared to make Broadway sit up and take notice in spite of the things necessary to whip into shape a show they hope will entertain that intellectual and floating population which make the Street of Great Lights what it is. The show is in its sixth successful week at Gibson's Dunbar Theatre, smashing all records since those days when J. Leubrie Hill's "Darktown Follie" played to crowds of huge dimensions at the Lafayette Theatre and induced Flo Zeldgelf to leave Broadway long enough to spend many a night in colored Harlem negotiating with John for the finale that set them talking for a season when it was transported to Broadway. For "How Come" to repeat the success or come near repeating it to "Shuffle Along" Hunter must be allowed to continue his story of that corporation formed on the lawn of a Southern town and they will have to so weave the said story we must see and hear the excuse for the appearance of Miss Smith singing special "blues" numbers; Mica Thompson and Mr. Richardson in a ballad or sentimental specialty and a Chinaman playing blues numbers on wind instruments that all expect to come out of Africa instead of China. The music must be in keeping with the production and even if the show made a hit on the Great White Way as it is it would be of a fleeting nature and not the thorough hold that the Miller-Lyle, Sissie-Blake production had on the thousands who journeyed to 63rd street again and again to enjoy the entire of the small town publicans from the time the curtain went up and disclosing their actions in the grocery store, passing through two hours of Harmony Kings, fine looking and well dilled chorus, songs topical and in keeping, strutting, etc. Mr. Harris with the wealth which we are told he can command, is enjoying a rare opportunity to bring to the Big City something worth while, for Hunter is an intelligent youngster confident of going through with the task assigned him, but from the observations made while witnessing the production in Philadelphia we fear that Eddie will be denied his chance to make good unless something is done to impress those responsible with the futility of asking Broadway to accept another revue trying to pass for a bonafide musical comedy. Smaashing records at Gibson's colored theatre is perhaps out of the ordinary, but "show me" New York demands from us the extraordinary and those who fail to realize this can only blame themselves.

By Kenneth MacGowan Of the New York Globe. CHICAGO, March 12—Here, in what might be called artistically speaking, the home-town of Mary Garden, greatest of Salomes, a Negress has assumed whatever mantle Oscar Wilde's famous and much-banned heroline may be found to boast. A cabaret dancer out of the "black belt" has played Mollere's immortal rogue, Scapin. And a company of colored actors, under the direction of a white man, have rediscovered and produced a German drama by the "father of expressionism" which makes "Roger Bloomer" look very, very commonplace. As I write, this remarkable experiment is preparing to move east. By easy stages and the hard road of much rehearsal and many performances it may ultimately reach New York—probably next fall. The company played in one of the houses of south Chicago under the name of the Negro Folk Theatre. The results of presenting Wilde, Mollere, and expressionism to the Negro population of Chicago seem to have been largely artistic. Its support has come from the white audience that has packed the various little theatres and community playhouses of Chicago. The Negro Folk Theatre has been the ambitious undertaking of Raymond O'Neill, a director who worked for some years at the head of the Cleveland Playhouse, an amateur producing theatre. After a visit to Europe he returned to America, and gradually came to the epinion that he could get more vigor and expressiveness out of the ill-trained actors of the colored race than out of ill-trained white amateurs and professionals liberally supplied with inhibitions. O'Kell brought back from Germany the script of a play called "George." It was written some thirty years ago by Buechner, a playwright so far ahead of his time that his plays were very little acted in his lifetime, and he himself is now hallied as the "father of German expressionism." One of his dramas, "Danton's Death," was produced in Reinhardt's great circus theatre in Berlin, and may be given here next fall when the ger man director comes over at the invitation of Morris Gest. "George" is a play in twenty scenes that fade in and out of one another, as in "Johannes Kreisler" and "Roger Bloomer." The company which O'Nell got together in the Negro Folk Theatre came, like most Negro companies, from all manner of occupations. Some of the actors were professionals. A couple had even toured Europe in plays. Others were cabaret dancers. One had been a barber and one delivered wash to at least one patron of the theatre a week or two before the opening. Opinions vary considerably as to the artistic quality of the performances; but a good many Chicagos assert that "The Rogueries of Scapin" became an extraordinarily amusing entertainment with the cabaret dancer skipping about the stage and some of the company freely improvising their lines as they went along. Copeau, says one enthusiast, never did the play more amusingly in Paris. I saw a special matinee of "Salome," which was given along with a comedy of Negro life, "The Chip Woman's Fortune." The latter, written by a Negro, Willis Richardson, had some of the naive and pungent folk quality of Lady Gregory's Irish plays. Excellently acted by Evelyn Preer, Sidney Kidpattick, and the rest of the cast. It was as wholly delightful as the plays by Ridgely Torrence which Robert Edmond Jones and his colored players produced at the Garden Theatre some seven or eight years ago. "Salome" was another matter. The illusion of Syria was intermittent. At times, however, you could ask for no better performance. When the voice of Jakanaan (Solomon Bruce) soared up from his prison it was magnificent, and away there was this marvelous vocal quality to the performance. Evelyn Preer, so excellently negroid in "The Chip Woman's Fortune," came out in "Salome" with a performance such as any Broadway actress might have relied satisfied to have given and she thrown in a dance which, within the proprieties, might almost have satisfied the demands of Herod. In spite of the generally exceptional diction, mispronunciations and unconsciously comic blits wandered into the performance, but, by and large, it did a great deal more than justice to this interminably wordy and "precious" play. 2,000 ORDERED TO LEAVE. CARLIERSVILLE, MO., Mar. 12.—A carefully organized campaign of intimidation has driven more than 2,000 colored workers from the cotton fields of Southeastern Missouri within the last thirty days, according to complaints made to local officials here to-day. FLEMING'S MEAT MARKET 2234 7th Ave., Near 133rd St., East Side of Ave., Deer Valley, Specialty ALLEY DWELLERS WILL BE HOMELESS JUNE 1 WASHINGTON, D. C., March 13. —An appeal to the District Supreme Court by a property owner for an injunction is the only means left to prevent eviction of 10,000 alley dwellers from their homes on June 1. This was the consensus among District officials, who are viewing the alley situation with uneasiness following the failure of Congress to extend the date for the enforcement of the act. There is absolutely nothing the District government can do to forestall the closing, Corporation Counsel Stephens stated, despite the fact that the commissioners are such that many of the alley dwellers may be left homeless. PHILADELPHIA Daniel W. Chase, Correspondent. During a feaulous quarrel in their home, Mrs. Lyda Murray, colored, is alleged to have killed Mathew Murray, her husband. It is said that her husband was found with five bullet wounds in his body, and died after accusing his wife with the shooting. She has been held charged with the crime. Paul Jones, colored, about twenty-five years old, was sentenced to death in the electric chair, but sentence to death was deferred pending argument on a motion for a new trial. He was found guilty of murder in the first degree, having been previously convicted and then granted a new trial.

TRIES TO SEARCH MAN, STABBED TO DEATH ASHLAND, Miss., March 14.—John Rimmer is in jail here following the death of P. C. Byrd (white), who accused Rimmer of having stolen money from him. According to the police Rimmer resented Byrd's accusations and when Byrd attempted to search him for the money, he is said to have denied knowing anything about the money and would not submit to being searched. Byrd seized him and a fight followed in which Rimmer is alleged to have thrust the blade of a pocket knife into Byrd's stomach, causing death almost instantly. CORK-SCREW USED IN ATTEMPTED MURDER WHEELING, W. Va., March 12. —A cork-screw is believed to have been used to inflict a wound found in the base of the brain of William Simmons, 37 years old, of Steubenville, Ohio, who is dying in the Steubenville Hospital. His wife, Valetha Simmons, 30 years old, is held in Jefferson County Jail without bond. Police say she will be charged with murder in the event of the death of her husband. KILLS WIFE AND WOUNDS STEPSON OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., March 12.—Using a pistol, a knife, a razor and an ax, A. B. Bowen, killed his wife, Mrs. Rhody Bowen, fatally wounded his stepson, and then killed himself. The slayings occurred at the home of Mrs. Bowen, who had sued for divorce and had obtained a restraining order to keep Bowen away from the premises. MAN KILLED BY TRAIN JOHNSTOWN, Pa., March 13.—While attempting to board an east-bound freight train on the main line of the Pennsylvania Railroad, just east of Gallitzin, a man, believed to be Roy Brandy, of 278 Woodville avenue, Pittsburgh, was fatally injured Wednesday night when he was struck by a west-bound passenger train. U. S. LABORER SET FIRE TO WASHINGTON, D. C. March 13. —A few weeks ago when Albert W. Shaw, employed as a laborer at the Government Printing Offices, attempted to join dancers in the cafeteria of the building during the lunch hour the music was stopped, and Shaw is alleged to have been told that this form of entertainment was for the recreation of white employees. Last Monday a fire broke out in the Government Printing Office and destroyed documents valued at $15,000. Government authorities declare the fire was of incendiary origin. Shaw was arrested and held by the police in connection with the fire. It is thought by officials that Shaw probably set fire to the building annex because of the grievance he is alleged to hold against officials and white employees in the printing office. Show stoutly maintains his innocence, but admits that he has a grievance. ASBURY PARK NOTES Bethel A. M. E. Church, Main Street, Rev. W. M.

During the months of February and March the members of the Branch are making a special effort to bring new members into the Association. We believe that this would be a much easier task if the women in Harlem knew just what it means to be a Y. W. C. A. member. Taking it first from the standpoint of the individual, it means Elixir of Youth Is No Longer a Myth New Scientific Discovery Brings Mankind's Dearest Dream to Verge of Realization. Mankind's oldest and dearest dream, an "elixir of youth," is brought to the verge of realization by a recent scientific discovery. Actual renewal of the body is not yet possible, but chemists have found an almost magical substance which speedily renews youthful vigor, regardless of age. Results in less time than by glad operation may highly set in factory, according to thousands who have been restored by the new discovery. The importance of this find cannot be estimated. It virtually brings youth back to the aged, besides increasing the powers of younger persons and restoring energy lost through disease, exhaustion or natural weakness. Although entirely harmless, it often produces amazing improvement over night, and many improvements to a decrease of vigor with the week. The quick effect is due to what scientists call a "chemokinesis," or increased activity of the organisms on which vital force depends. The use of this marvelous substance heretofore has been confined largely to the practice of famous physicians. Now, however, one of our great laboratories has made it available to the public in a safe, inexpensive tablet form, known as ketone compound, for secret home use. This treatment offers the advantage of skinties, the laboratories offer a double-strength treatment of the compound with the understanding that it is not to be paid for if it falls. This treatment, in a plain scaled wrapper, can be obtained by writing in confidence to Melton Laboratories. 1442 Massachusetts Bldg. Kansas City, Mo. You may enclose $2 or simply send your name and pay $2 and postage on delivery, as you prefer. In either case, you get your money back if you spend more days. These laboratories are absolutely reliable. If you need the ketone compound, do not hesitate to accept their guaranteed offer. —(Advt.) that you, yourself, have certain non- finite privileges here such as attending various free classes, certain clubs and socials. Monday night is always a busy time in the Branch. The Domestic Art Department has spilled over in- to the large club room which is very grand with its new coat of paint.

The regular Dressmaking and Millinery classes are also very busy for every- body is beginning to feel the urge for new Spring turbels. The typewriters are busily tapping in the Commercial Class and savoury odours proceed from the Domestic Science kitchen. Up in the gym on Monday night the young folks skate and such fun they do havel When they have finished at nine o'clock the Members Recreation class begins and the gym is the scene of more frolicking. On each Monday night during Lent, the Lenten Bible Class gathers, under the direction of Mrs. Saunders, and those who attend come away inspired and strengthened spiritually. Miss Sarreals, Girls' Work Secretary, attended a three day conference of Girl Reserve Secretaries in Hartford recently. There were present secretaries from the District of Columbia to Maline. The Girl Reserve program was discussed and there was an evening of foik dancing and stunts by the secretaries. Miss Sarreals was delightfully entertained by Rev. and Mrs. M. F. Sykes. The members of the Staff recently gave Dr. and Mrs. A. D. Donnelly a real surprise on the occasion of the first anniversary of their marriage.

Tells Dyspeptics What to Eat Avoid Indigestion, Sour Acid Stomach, Heartburn, Gas on Stomach, Etc. Indigestion and practically all forms of stomach trouble, say medical authorities, are due nine times out of ten to an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. Chronic "acid stomach" is exceedingly dangerous and surfers often either one of two injuries. Either one can go and often disagreeable diet, avoiding food that ungrateful with them, that irritate the stomach and lead to excess acid secretion or they can eat as they please in reason and make it a practice to counteract the effect of the harmful acid and prevent the formation of gas, sourced from the digestive formation by the use of a little Bisurated Magnesium on their meals. There is probably no better, safer or more reliable stomach antacid than Bisurated Magnesia and it is widely used for this purpose. It has no direct action on the stomach and is not a digestent. But a teaspoonful of the powder or a couple of five grain tablets taken in a little water with the food will stimulate the acidity which may be present and prevent its further formation. This removes the whole cause of the trouble and the meal digests naturally and healthfully without need of pepsin pills or artificial digestents. Get a few ounces of Bisurated Magnesia from any reliable drugst. Ask for either powder or tablets. It never comes as a liquid, milk or citrate and in the bisurated form is not a laxative. Your plan and you want you want your medical and see if this isn't the best advice you ever had on "what to eat." (Adult) Harlem Can Now Why Not Yours?

Harding Urges That Negro Be Educated WASHINGTON, D. C., March 14- Education is "precisely the right approach to the great problem at the Negro race's place in our American civilization." President Obama's educational Congress in a letter read at the opening session of its five-day conference here. "It is true, indeed," continued the letter, "that the same might be said of every other race or national or social element that goes to make up the total of our citizenship. But it is possible that Colored people, because they have been so little favored with educational opportunity and therefore have a great deficit in this regard to make up. "I have always felt that the right kind of effort along educational and industrial lines among the Colored people is certain to be productive of the most useful results, both to them and the national interest in general." "COMMON JUSTICE FOR AMERICANS," HARRISON. Addresses Large Audience, Mostly Addresses, Aldermanio-Chamber. Hubert Harrison spoke last Saturday afternoon in the Aldermanche Chamber at City Hall to a large audience composed mainly of white persons. The meeting was held in the auspices of the Board of Education. With "The Brother in Black" as his subject, Mr. Harrison spoke very effectively on the historical, spiritual and cultural side of Negro life. He made a strong plea based on the Negro's record for fair play and enlarged opportunities. He emphasized the freer opportunities to Negroes, and asked his hearers to resist the attempts of Southerners to poison their minds. "If it is the custom of the North," he said, "to stand for the association of black and white in street cars, schools, theatres and other public places, then to vade vading prejudice. Later the Southerners will themselves thank you for opening their eyes, and letting them see the light of one common justice for all Americans." REV. T. W. ARCHER COLORED PREACHER IS LAID AT REST Funeral services were held Thursday at the Mt. Olive Baptist Church in Amella County, Virginia, for Rev. Thacker W. Archer, colored, age 90. He had spent fifty of his years in that county as a church member and sheuburight, the church was crowded, both white and colored. The services were preached by Rev. Powell, pastor, assisted by most of the colored clergy of the county. Several of his white friends spoke in highest terms of him, including O. Gregory, Dr. Ewin Eggleston and Charles Wisher. The deceased leaves a widow, who is 92 years old; seven children, thirty-eight grandchildren and two sisters. - HELP WANTED FEMALE Wink run around looking for jobs! You are only waiting your time.

SITUATION IN INDIA BETTER, SAYS READING CALCUTTA, March 12.—The Viceger of India, Lord Reading, believes that racial animosity in India has begun to decline and that a closer cooperation in advancing the work of reform is now to be expected. "We have gone through some anxious times," he continued, "but the worst of the critical period now is over. There have been days or great strain, but we pursued our path fully convinced that it was right to continue to administer the law, to insist upon order while at the same time having regard to the legitimate susceptibilities or medians, and also to our responsibilities to His Majesty's Government and to the British Parliament at home. "I know not what the future may bring, I cannot picture to myself what the end will be when I leave India. But if it is then felt here that I have contributed to secure, by however small a step, the peace and prosperity of India, I shall feel sufficiently rewarded." LAWMAKERS ROW OVER PROPOSED SCHOOL (Preston News Service) .... OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLA, March 12.--During the discussion in the assembly here recently morning relative to the proposal of Charles Page to donate 160 acres in Tulsa county for the erection of a Negro school, Representative J. W. Simpson, of Tulsa county, declared, "You can put all the colleges you want to on the committee but I tell you 95 per cent of the people of Tulsa county will not welcome a Negro school." In spite of Mr. Simpson's vigorous expression, on motion of Representative Warren Ferrell, also of Tulsa county, the house decided to investigate the offer, Rep. M. Boyer, of Tulsa county, rose and thanked the speaker for appointing such broad minded men on the committee and repudiated the un-American expressions of his colleague from Tulsa county. GAINS PROMOTION WASHINGTON. March 12. Detective Paul W.

Chesterton, debating Prohibition, Sunday night, before the Institute Francais, described it as "that various colonial experiment on the other side." He added: "We are asked reverently to follow America's example. But they burn Negroes alive in that country, and although I do not want to be phrasalical about that, I do refuse to admit a society in which a vast crowd can meet together while a man-in evening dress sets fire to a Negro and roasts him alive has any right to set up as an exemplar of morality to the world. Prohibition means sacrificing the mass of normal people to a lot of abnormal people."

Nevertheless, his activi: tles have stimulated the progress of the race along enough lines to entitle him to consideration. STARTING WITH PRACTICALLY NOTHING and many handicaps he has made the Chicago Defender an institution. In point of service to the race in the profession of Journalism, he compares favorably with Horace Greely, Dana or Ralph Pulitzer. HE HAS DONE MORE to educate the masses of our people than all of the schools combined. HE HAS PLACED NEGRO JOURNALISM on a higher footing. ‘THROUGH HIM hundreds of young colored men and women find remunerative employment as edt tors, reporters, advertising agents, clerks, stenog- raphers, bookkecpers and newsdealers. IN BROADCASTING the intellectual, commercial and religious progress OF THE NEGRO TO THE NEGRO he has kept the spark of hope glowing. «THE SPINGARN MEDAL AWARD COMMITTEE will do well to consider the name of Robert S.

During and after the war France was fed up on anti-Negro propaganda by officers and enlisted men of the United States Army; and while most of this propaganda missed fire, there was s0 muck of it that some of the baneful effects have ‘not yet been wholly destroyed. ‘AS EXPRESSED by ex-Premler Clemenceau on bis recent trip to America, Franco knows what the Negro can do in time of war. The Rubr would give her an opportunity to see what he cam do in time ‘of peace. In the coal fields, on the farms and as workers in her cities, she would find out that the American Negro is the equal of his white brother. 7 ‘THIS IS EXACTLY what white America does not want the rest of the world to know and it fs very probable that France wil! have to find another way to get coal oat of the Ruhr mines.

Good news comes from the little Florida town of Palatka. Eleven members of a mob, all white, who stormed the county jail in an effort to lynch a Negro prisoner, were captured and jailed ‘themselves. That is good news for the whole South. It re flects credit upon the officials of the Florida couaty and saves the South from another disgrace.

Some time ago Marcus Garvey was indicted by a {Federal Grand Jury and charged with using the United States mails to defraud. A date was set for bis trial. As yet Mr. Garvey has not faced the court, his trial having been postponed several times. What Is the causo of this relutance on the part of the government to bring Garvey to trial after baving indicted him? Was ho indicted on insufficient evi ence, and, {f so, what was the reason bebind such miscarriage of justice? It begins to look as though the authorities have no good and reasonable grounds for proceeding against Garvey. The Pittsburgh American hay no defense for Gar. voy nor for any of his schemes so long as he Is ‘opposed in a legal manner and on’ constitutional and statutory grounds. But we do have a defense for bim or any other man when the proceedings against him are unconstitutional. Any individual or gtoup of individanls has a right to oppose another individual or group of individuals but the govern ment has no right to indict a man. for other ther offenses agafust the law and the statutes. If Marcus Garvey bas broken no law he has n¢ business to be walting trial by any court. It matter not what may be anyone's personal opinion concern ing him so long as he has not violated the law. I the government has a case against this man he should be tried. If there {s no case agaiust him the whole matter should be thrown out and closed up Walter Cohen Refused Confirmation. (Baltimore Herald). The U. S. Senate, with a Republican majority of 20, refused to confirm the noufnation of Walter L. Cohen, of Loulsiana, as Comptroller of the Port of New Orleans, upon’ the sole ground that he is a Negro. * Mr. Cohen held the position for eight years under Roosevelt and served acceptably and capably. There was no charge of Incompetency nor of other della. quency, but his rejection was upon the sole ground of color, and to satisfy the prejudice of Southern Senators. Cohen's rejection means that the Republican leaders serve notice on the Negroes of the country that they can no longer look to the party, as such, for consideration based on merit, American citizen: ship or party loyalty. Jt means that as a party the Republican party {8 opposed to equal citizenship, equal rights and equal privileges to the Negro. ‘The Senate vote, it is said, stows that a large majority of Republican are still true to the tradi. tfons of the party and the principles upon which It was founded, but that those who have turned their back upon the ancient principles of right and justice, render it impossible for the Negro to look to the party with any degree of Hope for justice and a square deal in the future. ‘Therefore, it becomes imperative that the Negro throughout the Nation shall wake up and consider himself no longer bound to any party. Republicans jwho stood by Cohen and who are found to ifne up {n support of measures favorable to the race, should be given loyal and enthusiastic support whenever they seek the suffrage of the Negro. ‘Those who soted against Cohen and are usually found hostile toward the race should be knifef whenever and as often as opportualty offers, ‘The Issue is now drawn and {s clean-cut and plain; regardiess of ability, character, integrity and wealth, Negroes are to be excluded by the Senate {rom holding bigh positions of honor and trust under the United States Government. ‘The Negro group covstitutes one-tenth of the nop- ulation and pay their full share of taxes levied in support of the Government to say nothing of giving fo all warn and tlmes of need thelr full measure of service with bared breast to uphold and maintain the fas. We ask nothing from the Government or from either political party because of race, but ask {t upon the igh grounds of loyal citizenship and because of our just right 23 byrden-bearing citizens to share in the benefits of government as well as to bear ite burdens. | And from now henceforth the Negto will know bis friends and will align himself with those who are willing to accord to him those undeniable rights of citizenship in whatever party such frlends be found.

York District, only as a politician. We have discussed from time to time his political vices and virtues and his name has been enrolled in more than one of the schools of political thought. It is true that he is, as Senator James W. Wadsworth has said, “a Republican institu- tion.” What of the man, Charles W. Anderson? Who is he? What is he? Where does he come from and why. does he hold the position that he holds to-day? While his name is a by-word in New York State, very few people, even his closest associates, know him, in the broadest sense of the word. Anderson ‘was born in Oxford, Ohio, April 28, 1866, the son of Charles W. and Serena Anderson. The Andersons then moved to Ohio. This was long before the Civil War. His early education was acquired in Oxford and Middletown, Ohio. Later he took a course in the Spen- cerian Business College of Cleveland and the Burlitz School of Languages at Worcester, Mass. In 1890 he was appointed U. S. Gauger in the Second District of New York, In 1893 we find himi the private secretary to the State Treasurer of New York, and in 1895 th Chief Clerk in the State Treasury. In 1898 Mr. Ander son was appointed Supervisor of Accounts for the New York State Racing Commission, and in 1905 he was ap pointed by the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt Collector o internal Revenue for the Second District of New York which position he held until! removed from office by President Wilson, April 4, 1915. | . The appointment of Mr. Anderson to this latter position 1s due largely to the dogeed determination of President Roosevelt to appolat compet- ent men to executive positions. regardless of race, creed or color. The following story is told concerning Mr. Anderson's appointment: Soon after President Roose- velt appointed a colored man to an executive position in the South, a great howl went up and a delegation of Southern- ers walted upon the President dent and voiced thelr indigoa- tion at the appointment and told President Roosevelt that be would not dare to appoint a colored man to a similar pos!- tlon in the North. ‘We can imagine how many ot his teeth “Teddy” showed at such a remark. At any rate @ ltue later, this same deloga- tion was invited to call at the ‘White House. When they on- tered the room Roosevelt arose to greet them. “Gentlemen,” ho sald, “f hare had you como here to meet Charles W. Anderson, Collector of Internal Revenue for the Second District of New York, which is the principal Revenue District in the United States.” Very little was heard after that from the delegation. At the time Anderson was removed from office to make room for a good, hungry Demo- crat, the New York Wortd which at that time was the spokesman of the Democratic Administration, published an editorial from which we quote as follows: ‘Charles W. Anderson goes out of office today after hold- ing for ten years this responsi- dle post under the Treasury. Many millions of dollars have passed through his hands, His dealings have been practically all with white men of the Keonost intellect and of sub- stantial business standing. Capacity and courtesy have deen the qualifications most re- marked in his conduct of an office maintained always under the highest efficiency.

He has stood the test. No raco is fairly judged by holding up as types for reprobation its most degraded specimens. Every race has the right to bo judged by its patient, toiling useful average, and by Its hest.” Even the New York Times in its news report of March 6th credits officials with say- ing that Anderson had made an excellent record. These ex- pressions, coming from the New York World which has never subscribed to Inefficiency ina public servant; and the ‘New York Times, which Is very careful in crediting the Negro with any virtues, are conclusive evidence of Mr. Anderson's efficiency. In 1897 he was president of the New York Commission to the Tennessee Centennial Ex- position at Nasnville. In that same year he was one of the principal speakers at a ban- quet tendered to President Wit- Mam McKinley at Buffalo. He ‘was a member of the Hudson- Fulton Celebration Committee and of the Citizens’ Committee which welcomed Admiral Geor- ge Dewey and the fleet upon their return from the Phillip- pine Islands and also served on similar committees which wel- one can always find selfish- noss.
