NEW LAW IN JERSEY BANS MOBS Assemblyman Oliver Randolph's Bill Penalizing Law-Breakers Goes Into Effect Today. As the climax of long agitation New Jersey's first statute conceived by the Legislature as a curb on the Ku Klux Klan will become effective today. The bill was introduced by Assemblyman Oliver Randolph of Essex, passed by this year's Legislature and approved by Governor Silzer. It is Chapter 147 of the 1923 laws and is entitled "An act to suppress mob violence." "Any collection of individuals, five or more in number, assembled for the unlawful purpose of offering violence to the person or property of anyone supposed to have been guilty of a violation of the law, or for the purpose of exercising correctional powers or regulating the person's personal persons by violence, and without lawful authority, shall be regarded as a 'mob.'" reads the opening section of the law. Persons who compose mobs with the intent to inflict damage or under the pretense of exercising correctional powers are made subject to a fine ranging from $100 to $1,600 and imprisonment for not less than $30 days nor more than one year for every offense. Where damage is inflicted, those participating are to be deemed guilty of a felony and subject to imprisonment not exceeding five years, and the person suffering by the acts of the mash, either to himself or his property, is given the right of action against the county or city in which the violence occurred for damages not exceeding $5,000. Survivors are given the same right of action where death is due to such violence. It is provided further that "if any person shall be taken from the hands of the sheriff, or his deputy, having such person in custody and shall be lynched, it shall be prima these evidence of failure on the part of such sheriff to do his duty," and the Governor is to remove him from office. The official has the right of appeal to the Governor, however, and the Governor may retaliate him if evidence produced shows that he did all in his power to protect his prisoner.

SAY WIFE WAS BEATEN TO DEATH According to the testimony of three persons, Mrs. Clara Desmolin, 35, of 237 West 142nd street, was beaten and kicked by her husband, Clarence Desmolin, of the same address, in such a manner last Saturday at 7:30 P. M. that the injuries sustained resulted in her death at Mariem Hospital a few hours later from hemorrhage of the brain. Desmolin was arrested and charged, with her death. He was arraigned before Magistrate House to the Washington Heights court on Sunday and held in the Homicide Court.

C., July 2.—A Eight yesterday in the Twelfth street branch of the Y. M. G. A. resulted in the death of Leon M. Jones, age 18, of 2325 Champlain street, M. W. Jones was shot through the heart by Joseph Kairson, the night watchman of the building, who was shot in the arm and hit on the head with a brick. Rowdylam is given by the "Y." officials as the cause of the trouble. Speaking to a crowded house at the Renaissance Casino on Sunday afternoon Representative Leonidas C. Dyer of Missouri, father of the anti-lynch bill that bears his name, made a stirring plea to the members of the Negro race for greater unity in defense of their constitutional rights. "The greatest fault of colored people," he said, "is that they are continually pulling apart from one another, and fighting among themselves. How foolish that it! You are a minority group, and like all minority groups are at a disadvantage. Minority groups can never hope for much unless its members stand together. There is a feeling all over the United States that the Negro should stand together and lay aside their bickering and postmotion. One of the greatest differences I have so contended with on the Boss of Congress in the law that Southernmen rise from time to time to time to declare that the Negroes themselves are not united on high and such a measure, and are not asking for it." Congressman Dyer promised that the anti-lynching bill will be the first bill to come up before the next Congress. "It is House Bill No. 1," he said. "I have other important measures for my district, but I am going to attend to this first, and (Continued on Page 2) NEGRO WATCHMAN SHOT BY BURGLAR Hoboken police are on the leap-out for a burglar who shot Jacob Blanky, of 1410 Adams street, a watchman complained by the Park Blair Alcohol Products Company of 1414 Adams street. Blanky in St. Mary's Hospital, Hoboken, with a bullet in his left arm and another in his left thigh. Musty grappled with a man he discovered in the rear yard of the alcohol plant and the man turned his gun on him. Police under Capt. Dodge Bellman conducted a search of the neighborhood, but failed to find the burger. Motorcycle Patrolman Frank Labey food ordered照片 at three men when he ordered to show, but they escaped. hood were aroused by the chase and six shots were fired. Many patients in the Woman's Hospital at 109th street and Amsterdam avenue were awakened by the shooting. Just before five o'clock Mrs. Eleanor Capoelfoal, 23 years old, a pretty brunette, was awakened by a noise at the window of her apartment on the ground floor of 126 West 109th street. When she saw a young colored man's head rising above the window, sill she gave a loud yell. Her screams aroused the tenants in the house. They likewise aroused young Policeman Vordenbaum, student of sleuth methods, who lived next door. Donning his trousers and a few more "necessaries," he set out for the scene of the trouble. The policeman was furnished with a brief description, and wet out after him. The man ran through the courtyard of the apartment, jumped the fence, and landed on 109th street. When the policeman reached 108th street, the fugitive had turned north into Amsterdam avenue, and when Policeman Vendanbunman arrived at Amsterdam avenue 108th street and Amsterdam avenue. The policeman drew his revolver and fired three shots. None of them took effect, but they were sufficiently loud in the still of morning to arouse every one for several blocks around. Meanwhile, the chase was continuing up high, and the active and murder raced along at about the same distance from each other. As the man reached 112th street, and the policeman arrived at 126th street, the policeman drew his revolver and fired three more shots. These missed the furtive, likewise, who had turned West into 112th street. The alleged burglar then decided to fool this cop who couldn't hit him. He turned, and retraced his steps in a leisurely manner toward Amsterdam avenue. He assumed the air of nonchance, but it didn't fool his partner, who, being a detective, noticed that he was puffing in spite of himself and promptly pounced on him as he paced. At that moment Detectives Fitzgwald and Courtney of the West 100th street station arrived, and the three took the would-be burglar to the station house. He was later arraigned in the [Vent Side] Court, where Magistrate Levine held him in $10,000 hall for examination Friday. He was charged with attempted burglary.

Sunday afternoon the steamship La France docked at the foot of 15th street. Pier 57, bringing to America for his visit Gen. Henri Joseph Eugene Gourard, the great French general, under whom the "Fighting Fifteenth" served with so much honor and distinction during the World War. Gen. Gourard comes to this country as a guest of the "Rainbow Division," who also formed a part of his command when he broke the back of the German attack in that memorable summer of 1918. The general was met with a wonderful reception on landing, the national air of which was far more impressive than 18th Regiment Meets, accompanied by pet haps 290 colored citizens. The following exchange of radiograms on last Thursday between the general and Col. Little, who is an old friend, while the France was yet three days at a, occurred, and was, no doubt, chiefly responsible for the warm reception this hero got from colored America, who, through the returning members of the "Old Fifteenth," have learned to know and love him: I shall arrive Sunday. I look forward with great pleasure to meeting you and all of my old friends of the Fifteenth. Please notify Donevan for me. (Signed) Gen. Gourard. (The Donovan referred to is Col. oDnovan, former commander of the "Old Sixty-ninth" and chairman of the welcoming committee of the Rainbow Ivision.) Gen. Gourard. S. S. La. France. Thanks for your sympathetic friendship, proven once more by your thoughtful radiogram. The Rainbow Division committee, with great courtesy, has invited me to accompany them in your reception and I shall be glad to be among the first to welcome you to America. The colored volunteers, who once served so proudly under your command, and their mothers, wives and sisters, join me in greetings of love. Col. Little. Italians Come to Rescue of Woman Arrested for Disorderly Conduct, One Hundred Answer Call for Help. Detective David Burd and Howard Hock, of the Special Service, had a tough time getting Lulu Bea, 21, 256 Navy street, Brooklyn, to the station house last Saturday after arresting her on a charge of disorderly conduct, for when she reached Hudson avenue and Beller street, she let out a scream for aid and asked if there wasn't someone in the crowd who would come to her rescue. Her plan was succeeded by nearby 1979 Kearns and盐城ians living in the neighborhood. With Brown revolvers and with their knives as a well the two detectives fought off the angry thug. A man succeeded, however, in knocking the gun from Burd's hand while another person in the crowd punched him behind the ear. He fell to the ground, and in doing so, injured him hand. Detective Hock meanwhile fired shot in the air, which attracted several other officers, who succeeded in getting her in the station. LOOK FOR STOLEN LOOT IN HARLEM Scandal Rocks Faculty and Students of Western University; Another Professor Flees. QUINDARO, Kans., June 30. — Prof. Peter Crutchfield, of the faculty of Western University, and Lawrence Patton, instructor in electricity and engineering, the no longer members of the faculty, President Frank Peck announced last week. Action of the president in demanding the dismissal of these two faculty members followed the sensational discovery of both men and two girl students of the university in a forest "love nest" not far from the campus. It was approved by the trustees of the university, which is supported by the A. M. E. Church. With the teachers were Miss Mee Bridgesforth and Miss June Smith, 17, when the "love nest" was raided by teachers and students who had overheard talk of the rendezvous and discovered the place. Report was made immediately to the university authorities. Mrs. C. Bridgeforth, mother of one of the girls, went immediately to the school from Fort Smith, Ark., and at the point of a pistol compelled Prof. Crutchfield to marry her daughter. He is reported to have deserted her immediately afterwards. Instructor Patton, who last year married one of the students of the university fled without waiting to be asked for assistance. His companion, Miss Smith, whose home is in Tulsa, Oh., also left for her home immediately. Students of the graduating class were unable to keep the photograph of Miss Bridgeforth out of the class book, but succeeded in having the diplomas of both students withheld. WOMAN GIVES ALARM; ALI.FGED THIEF CAUGHT When Mrs. Frederick Arenberg, wife of the superintendent of the Saranac Apartments, 470 Convent avenue, surpripped an intruder on the fire escape acting in a suspicious manner, she first bent a right swing toward his jaw and then she resorted to the more womanlike method of trying to trip him up as he ran by her. But the colored man Harry Thomas of 206 West 156th street, a former employee at a Saranac racing stable, made his escape to the street. In the meantime Mr. Arenberg had given alarm and after a spirited chase of several blocks the fugitive was captured by detectives of the West 153d street station. In his packets was found 8,000 in money and jewelry lifted from rooms of tenants of the Saranac Apartments. RESTORATION OF LIFE. Dorothy Galton, age one year, 306 Milton Street, Paterson, N. J., was prosecenced good from diphtheria and was revived again with adrenaline. The child is expected to recover. As an aftermath of several baffling burglaries, in which thousands of dollars' worth of goods were stolen, attention has been directed to colored Harlem as the recipient of at least some of the spoils, and policemen and detectives are on the lookout for possible clues, in the hope that several of them may be cleared up. Most of these big robberies were committed downtown or in exclusive residential sections, but detectives have picked up several clues leading to Harlem. In a copyrighted dispatch from the Washington office of the Associated Negro Press, "the question of the removal of Captain Napoleon B. Marshall from his present position at the American Legation in Port au Prince. Haiti, has been laid before Under Secretary of State Phillips by Charge d'Affaires, James C. Dunn, white." The dispatch further states that nothing will be done concerning the matter until after a thorough investigation. James C. Dunn is a native of Newark, N. J., and came into the diplomatic service under the Wilson administration. He has seen service in Havana, Cuba, and other sections of the West Indies has been in Port au Prince for a little over three years, first as secretary of the legation, and at present Charge d'Affaires. While it is understood that Dunn's chief complaint is that "Marshall is too able a man to be a mere clerk," and that it is desired that just an ordinary person, presumably white, should succeed Marshall, friends of Marshall in the United States wish to find out why Marshall was thus assigned in the first place after he had been led to believe his position would be one of authority. Technically, Maranah's position is under the State Department, but the State Department would naturally give respectful consideration to suggestions from the chairman of the Senatorial Committee being to do with the affairs of Haiti. The body of a drowned calf man faced shooting in Palm Bay afterward Montreal as that of Norman C. Blaine, 54; 123, 127th St., last week by Rachel Shields, 600 St. Nilehaven Ave. When Sildenafil saw the body he beams with Felterman, Frank Beloff, of the Wastewater station. The body was taken to the Mortuary, where it was dismilled from papers in the pantry. Boulin's, National Detective Agency 2775 Seventh avenue, has been retained by insurance companies, and others interested in running down the perpetrators of the loot. Resident in the loot. According to the chief of the Boulin agency most of the Burglaries bear earmarks of "inunds abbr." and colored employees in buildings that have been robbed are being closely watched. A 20 Minute Job. On June 4, Mrs. E. Ash, who lives with her daughter in the exclusive apartment house at 778 Hiverside Drive, went to the store to make a few purchases. She wore exactly 20 minutes. When she returned, her apartment had been broken into and about $5,000 worth of jewelry and other valuable stolen, including a full quilt, a quilted quilted quilted at $385 a glove and squirrel coat valued at $225 and a sable scarf valued at $500. Other articles stolen included: a gold mesh bag, a tazed of 16 pearls, five blue apprehended worth $485, a silver chain, a bankbook and $10 in cash, a gold watch and three small diamonds. A Fast Job. Another case the Boullin agency is investigating is the $49,000 fee robbery. June 17, at 120 West 29th street. This was on Saturday afternoon, when one of the Silver Jubilee paradees was in procession and when, as many policemen as could be spared, were on duty on Fifth Avenue, the 80th Office District, the 80th police district. The Holmes Protective Service received an alarm at 12 minutes after four, indicating that the premise had been broken into. Special policemen arrived nine minutes later but were unable to find any trace of the burglars. Within those nine minutes $400 worth of mink furs were removed from the building. Detectives assigned to this job state that it would have been physically impossible to Jimmy the door and break into the compartment containing the furs and remove them from the building, in no short time without exact knowledge of every detail of the building and the loft occupied by the furriers. With her left arm almost severed at the elbow, Martha Hamilton, 140 West, 14th street, is in florence Hospital, and her husband, Henry Hamilton, the same address, is held in $1,000 ball for a further hearing in the Heights Court on a charge of telecommunications. Detectives McFarland and Johnson, of the West 155th street station, were passing the 145th street address, when the sound of lighting coming from the first floor attained of their attention. Rushing into the place, the detectives saw. Mrs. Hamilton almost unconscious from the loss of blood and two men holding the defendant. An ambulance was called from Harlem Hospital, and Dr. Nahib removed the injured woman. She stated her husband had died her with a knife, and they placed her husband under arrest. Mrs. Hamilton is still in Harlem Hospital and was unable to appear in court on Monday morning. LISTEN To What We Are Offering-Special Courses in Driving and Shop Work.

DYER URGES UNITY (Continued from Page 1) shall not rest until it becomes a law. "For eight years I had been trying to get this bill before Congress but couldn't get it out of committee because the committee was composed of Southerners, who were all against it. Then my party came into power four years ago and we were fortunate enough, after much trouble, to get it before the House. "This anti-lynching bill will be to the Fourteenth Amendment what the Volstead Act is to the Eighteenth. When this bill becomes law I intend to go after another to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment. I am doing this not for the colored people, but as an official sworn to defend the Constitution of the United States. "The opposition to a Federal anti-lynching law is the mob," continued Representative Dyer, and next, I am sorry to say, public officials from the lynching states. They say, let the states attend to this matter, that they understand the Negro. We have let them handle this question to the disgrace and discredit of the country for 35 years. There is one state in the Union that has to its credit 500 lynchings in the past 36 years. The only thing that was done in regard to punishing the mob in the 36 years was the indictment at one time of one man on the charge of unlawful assembly." James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the N. A. A. C. F., another speaker, said that the Dyer Bill failed at the last session, "not so much from the opposition of the enemy, but from the lukewarmness of its supposed friends." Other speakers were Wm. Pickens and Dr. Boutte, who introduced Representative Dyer. Swedish Surgical and Orthopedic Massage. Cabinet Baths and Electric Baking If you are nervous, you can gain calm.

BOSTON, Mass., July 2.—Bristling with defiance, Mayor Curley answered the North Carolina citizens who warmly objected to the choice of Charles C. Dogan, Negro boy, who will read the Declaration of Independence from the Old State House, July 4. Protest Appointment. The protestants, Thomas F. Armstrong, J. Frank McClelland and Frank Dalton of Charlotte, N. C., declared to the Mayor, in a letter: "The Boston Post of June the 8th carries the announcement that you have selected Charles C. Dogan, honor pupil at English High School, to read the Declaration of Independence from the balcony of the Old State House in connection with the July Fourth exercises. "Being former Bostonians and still residents of Boston, in spirit if not body, and further knowing the Negro as we know them, we protest such an appointment on the grounds of a deliberate insult to the Boston school boy and the赁age Bostonian. The South would not allow such an appointment to be made and we believe knowing both sides as we do that what this section of the country will not tolerate, should not be accepted by the city of our birth. "We make the above protest aware that the question of race has never been settled, but we feel as all here do in the supremacy of the white race. May we have the honor of hearing from you." They did. Mayor Vitriolic in Reply. "I have seldom received a letter from any source so lacking in good manners, so devoid of Americanism, so desistitute of all knowledge of the principle and practices of our government and so offensively and stupidly impertinent. It is some satisfaction to know that this ill-mannered effusion was not written by any native Carolinian; for while Massachusetts and Carolina differ profoundly upon the race question, both are as one in recognizing the necessity of practising politeness and observing the conventions of decent society. in correspondence and social relations. You do not speak therefore either for the town you live in. Charlotte or the State of North Carolina, so they must be acquitted of the offensive, ill-bred and unwarranted meddling in the affairs of Massachusetts and Boston exhibited in gross letter. When men claiming birth and former residence in Boston are guilty of the gross courtesy you have committed, and its bad manners are emphasized by a betrayal of the principles and an insult to the traditions of their birthplace, they become at once observing of scorn and contempt. "I refuse to accept you as the spokesman of the State and the children of the men who fought and died for human freedom at King's Mountain. "Charles C. Dogan was selected for the honor conferred on him for excellent reasons; he has shown a competence and capacity in the numerous rivalry of school life to make him a worthy choice; he is an "honor pupil," that is to say, a pupil of more than ordinary attributions; his choice has the application of his fellow pupils; and the selection to read the immortal declaration is an expression of our recognition of the services of his race in Massachusetts to human freedom and democratic government. One of his race died in the streets of Boston in defence of human rights—Crispus Attucks—and Boston has raised a monument to the memory on Boston Common; and thousands of his race fought and died to preserve the Union in the war of the Rebellion, and to make the world safe for democracy in the World War. Any man of any race, color or creed who is willing and worthy to serve the Flag and die for the Republic is worthy to have his place in the Sun of American Democracy. "Let me commend to you three men the wisdom of reading and remembering the principles embodied in the Bible, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the Massachusetts Bill of rights. The Scriptures tell us that God made man in his own image, be the envelope in which he enclosed his soul white, black, brown or yellow. "Let me also commend to you the desirability of moving out of Carolina and going further afield to regions where men of your viewpoint may find a congenial atmosphere which I am sure is not to be found in North Carolina, and should be impossible to find in any portion of America."

Dr. R. R. Downs, D.D., editor of "The Voice of Missions," organ of the A. M. E. Church, is a veteran in the cause of the advancement of his race. Born in Vicksburg, Miss, during the days of slavery, he has labored long, faithfully and intelligently throughout the passing decades. During the stirring times of the Reconstruction period, when it was much more dangerous than now to oppose disfranchisement, segregation and injustice, he stood up unfinishedly for the rights of his people at all times, and once narrowly escaped the lynchers' mob in Columbus, Ga., because of his views on Negro education Dr. Downs entered the A. M. E. Church in 1850, and has been in constant service ever since. He has filled many pulpits in various parts of the United States, having served, among other places, in Atlanta, Ga.; Savannah, Ga.; Columbus, Ga.; Lima, O. and Columbus, O. Several churches have aweed their erection to his inspiration and energy, among which is the splendid A. M. E. edifice in Lima. He has served as presiding elder in the Savannah and other districts and has long been a familiar figure at the National Conferences, where he speaks on behalf of missionary work. To-day he still stands pre-eminently one of the leading ministers of the A. M. E. Church. In addition to his duties as editor, Dr. Downs is in charge of the missionary department of the A.M. E. Church, located at 62 and 64 Bible House, on Astor Place. Having been for many years a contributor to "The Voice of Missions," his name was carried at the head of the paper as one of its editors. It was not known directly after the board meeting (August, 1922; that he was available for the position of editor, but his name having been suggested because of his long connection with the paper, he was later asked to take the post, and, after some hesitancy, consented to do so. In the field he continues to give the church, still more extensively, the benefits of his ripened scholarship and varied experiences as an active pastor. In his function as editor of one of the foremost church publications in the world, he is at last filling a post where his abilities as a thinker, preacher and writer, and his upright, sterling influence as a man of God will be disseminated throughout the length and breadth of the Church. Like most men who have served well and nobly, Dr. Downs is very relentful on the subject of his accomplishments. A representative of The Amsterdam Nows, who called upon him at his office, could learn little of his intersexual career from his own lips. Quiet and unassuming to a degree, it is evident that he believes in doing his duty, and doing it without display. He is the recipient of many letters of congratulation for the excellent Alabama Whites Still Fight Negro Personnel at Tuskegee (Preston News Service) TUSKEGEE, Ala., July 2.—Following the declaration of President Harding that the United States Veterans' Hospital is to be manned by Negroes, Southern whites are resorting to almost any measure to prevent the President's wishes from being carried out. It is stated that no further Negro personnel will be assigned to the hospital until Director Hines makes a personal investigation of the condition at the hospital. It is said that Director Hines has sent word that he would make an investigation some time during July. Feeling that has been apparently running high for the past few weeks has subsided somewhat, following the announcement that the director would visit the institution. Many keen observers throughout the country have taken particular note of the attitude Dr. Moton has taken in the situation and are watching carefully what President Harding will finally instruct Director Hines to do in the matter. It is felt in many quarters that President Harding may waver and yield to the wishes of the southern whites, while friends of the President are inclined to think that he will stand firm. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2. Rev. E. D. W. Jones, president of the Ministerial Alliance of the District of Columbia and chairman of the Citizen-Soldier's mass meeting, held at John Wesley A. M. E. Church, Monday night, June 12, to urge a colored personnel at the Federal Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., has received the following communication from Gen. Frank T.

Among the number is one from the editor of the Christian Recorder, R. R. Wright, Jr., who said, "I congratulate you upon your appointment to the missionary department. I am sure it is a good one and that the work will be taken care of by a religious as well as a consecrated man." Dr. Downs is a firm believer in practical Christianity. "I believe," he said, "in the common origin of mankind—in a common humanity. Of one blood God made all the races of the earth. I believe in practical religion—in the kind of religion that will create a better and kinder understanding among men of all creeds, color and classes; not the kind of religion that is a mere display of the emotions." Serving at a Sacrifice. At the present time Dr. Downs is serving at a personal sacrifice. He is filling the position because of the illness of the Rev. J. W. Rarkin, D.D., who has been suffering for some time from a nervous breakdown and overwork. Dr. Downs hopes to be elected permanently to the position of the secretary of missions, which includes, also, that of the editorship of "The Voice of Missions," at the 1928 General Conference, to be held at Louisville, Ky. He is one of the outstanding candidates. "I am no stranger to the readers of our church periodicals," he said. "For many years I have been associate editor and a regular contributor to 'The Voice of Missiones' without pay. "I can do the work. The work to me is as play, and it is as play because I like the work." "I am not making a claim for honors; but I would be happy to be thus honored by the Church next May at Louisville, Ky. There is no greater office in the Church for service, and I wish to be in a position where I can at all times render the maximum services to the Church of God and my people." Dr. Downs, who, with Mrs. Downs, is a resident of this city, has reared a large family. Six of his children, all of whom are married, are living.

June 28th, with the blessing of friends who came in to congratulate him on the occasion. We wish him many happy returns of the day.

A coffin three times the size of the average large coffin was used last Thursday in which the remains of Mrs. Charlotte Ramsay Walker, who is said to have weighed 250 pounds, were interred. It is said that 12 muscular men acted as paliberrers and special straps were used in lowering the coffin in the grave. Mrs. Walker was said to be 92 years. old when she died. Moton Heads the Y.M.C.A. Tuskegee Head Named to Succeed Dr. Wm. J. Schiefflein. Close upon the announcement of the retirement of Dr. Jesse Moorland as senior international Y. M. C. A. secretary in charge of colored work, comes the word that Dr. R. R. Moton of Tuskegee has been named to succeed Dr. Wm. J. Schiefflein as chairman of the international sub-committee in charge of colored work. Associated with him on the committee are Bishop R. E. Jones of the M. E. Church, F. B. Ransome of the Madame Walker firm and Tredmah Brinkley, C. H. Tobias or R. P. Hamlin, junior international secretaries, may succeed to the place left vacant by Dr. Moorland. Under the Y. M. C. A. rule, all secretaries must retire at the age of 60. Much speculation has arisen from the announcement that the constitutional convention to be called soon in Cleveland will change the plan of administering colored work. Heretofore, under Dr. Moorland, the colored associations have had their own administrative department under his direction. G. H. CANT SEE HEY?

Before the contest another colored champion, in the person of Danny Edwards, king of the bantams of color, was introduced, closely followed by Kid Buller who, by the way, is also wearing a crown in that he tops the feathers. This was introduced the world's most logical contender for a crack of the crown worn by Jack Dempsey, kept on the head of the white horse by virtue of some of the most unportmanlike tactics the prize ring ever saw, and a manager, Mr. Mullins, whom the colored people believe is not making enough noise to attain the end which he tells us is desirous of bringing about on behalf of Wills. When they cleared the ring Gans appeared to be the least interested of all those present. Walker having arisen twice to acknowledge the plaudits of his followers. When the bell clanged that sent them on their way, the audience half rose with excitement and only settled back when it was seen that Willie, meeting the master mind of the division, had not in the least worried the champion who settled down to his work systematically by pounding on the ribs near the liver, hoping thereby to wear his inexperienced opponent down Gans also worked a jab that disturbed Walker in that he did not seem able to fathom it, and, although he put up a splendid fight, the old master did not worry in the least. Up to the third round Gans worked beautifully, making Willie miss at times by the proverbial mile, although in this spasm Willie did come to the front and landed some effective punches on Gans. Up to the eighth round those with the least hit of ring knowledge could see that Walker was not in it with Gans. Figuring it out, it could be seen that if the fight went the distance Gans would win on points and few expected what happened in the ninth round. At this stage of the game, Walker came out of his corner and, instead of continuing to carry the fight to his wily opponent, he backed up with the intention of boxing him. Then, Walker did that, which gave Gans even more confidence. Willie would start a blow, then change his mind and draw it back. He did this a couple of times and Gans went to him with the confidence of a man who had his adversary whipped. Suddenly, from a mix-up, which sent Walker backing into the ropes, Gans uncovered a right which he had nursed throughout the fight, and like a bolt from a clear sky, it traveled to Willie's chin with lightning-like rapidity and the fight was over. Willie was counted out while he laid helpless.

Work of Moore Made Big Fight Here Possible Sent Edwards and Buller to the Queensboro Last Night and Also Brings Us a New One We have had good colored managers in the past, but none who could compare with the astute George Moore, manager of Danny Edwards, Kid Buller Willie Walker and the new South American youngster by the name of Risney, who appeared in one of the preliminaries at the Commonwealth Sport Club last Saturday and won handily from his opponent. To George Moore all colored Harlem will look in future for some of the best matches bringing together our colored boys and the white fighters and even now Harlem can thank him for making it possible for all hands to get a true line on both Willie Walker and Panama Joe Gans. The latter did not fight like a man who is slipping last Saturday night and Willie showed that he is not yet in the class of Gans, although a fighter who made some splendid showings heretofore. Even Mr. Moore, after witnessing the fight, will admit that Gans is too heavy for his boy, but this will not stop him from grooving Walker for better things. In the meantime, he continues to keep Danny Edwards and Kid Buller busy. Last night he sent his two boys to the Queensboro. Edwards to play a return date with Harry Gordon, the only fighter to hand the K. O. punch to Danny, and Buller he sent against Frankie Conway. Mr. Moore has again established offices in this city and will from now on work on his campaign, which will keep the men under his guidance busy. Knowing the fight game from top to bottom, he is a credit to the game and even when one of his boys meet defeat he has carried them in a path which seems to hold their following just the same. Says John L.

Gibbons, so the boxing experts tell us, intends to wage a campaign against Dempsey's ribs in the fight at Sheliop, but Jack, after admitting for the first time that John Leester Johnson did crack and break the said ribs, opines that he has gained much from the experience and Gibbons will find it useless trying to get him this way. "John Lester taught me something," says Jack. "I'll say he did.

Eastern Colored League Heads Meet in Phila. SHAKER AT MEETING PHILADELPHIA, July 2.—The first meeting held since the league got under way by the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs was held at the Y. M. C. A. Commissioners Nat C. Strong, of the Brooklyn Royal Giants; Thomas Jackson, of the Bacharach Giants; James J. Keenan, of the Lincoln Giants; Alexander Pompez, of the Cuban Stars; Charles P. Speaden, of the Baltimore Black Sox, and Edward Bolden, of the Hilldale Club, comprised the gathering and completed the quota. All of the club owners expressed in enthusiastic terms the manner in which their respective cities have received the infant venture into organized baseball and report a marked increase in attendance, due to interest in the pennant race. Among the important business straightened out by the moguls was the equalizing of the schedule. The Brooklyn Royal Glants and the Cubans and the Bacharach Glants have not played near as many games as the rest of the teams, but the adjustment in the schedule will give these clubs many more league contests and balance the schedule. Arrangements have been made for other league clubs to play at Baltimore on Sundays on the days that the Black Sox are playing away. This will insure the patrons of Maryland Park the same high class brand of ball that the patrons are accustomed to. The Bacharach Giants and Cuban Stars will be the attraction July 8, and the Brooklyn Royal Giants and Cuban Stars are slated to mix matters at the home of the Sox, September 9. On both of the aforementioned dates the Black Sox will be battling the Lincoln Giants in New York. AT PROTECTORY OVAL Next Sunday, at Protectory Oval, East Tremont avenue, near 180th street, the home team, the Lincoln Giants, will engage in what should be the greatest doubleheader of the season when they play the Baltimore Black Sox, leaders in the newly-formed Eastern Colored League. This is the first appearance of the Black Sox around New York City, and, as they have in their lineup among others, Blaine Hall, who made a wonderful record; with the Lincoln; Millers, the great third baseman, and Rojo, the former Cuban catcher, the fans should turn out in great numbers to watch the work of their former favorites. By ROMEO L. DOUGHERTY AT YOUR COMMAND INSIVE PALACE OR AMUSEMENT WORK'S LATEST SENSATION DANCING 9 P.M. UNTIL DAWN Fighter included eight league contests in their streak. At the present time it doesn't appear to be a difficult feat for Capt. Lloyd to pick his hurlers, as every moundman on the Hilldale staff has been turning in victories with marked regularity and when one of the twirlers appear to falter the heavy stickwork of Bolden's Busters carries the club to victory. Although the Cuban Stars trimmed the Bacharach Giants three straight games, the shore boys are far from being "all in" and may be the first club to check Hilldale in their sensational spurt, the Philadelphia club being due for a two-game stay at the shore July 1 and 2. It is an almost sure shot that Tom Jackson's crew will send "Rats" Henderson to the hill in the first game with Hilldale and right there let it be known that if the "Rats" person performs in the same manner as when the clubs met before, the winning streak of the league leaders is due to be dented. On the other hand, if the Hilldale mislea maulers continue their murderous onslaught, Henderson, the Bacharach's chunky righthander will swallow his first defeat from Capt. Lloyd's gang. An inkling of what is wrong with the Lincoln Giants was gleaned when several of the players began mixing matters in a pugilistic way, on the players' bench at Protectory Oval during the progress of a game. While the club seemed to be playing in a streak of hard luck, losing many battles by a one-run margin, the seat of the trouble appears to be dissension and a shakeup in the team is very much in order to bring about the desired results. Little Charlie Spedden, one of the owners of the Baltimore Black Sox is far from satisfied with the manner in which the Sox have been "taking it" lately, and by the time that the Marylanders play a return engagement in Philadelphia, the personel of the Sox may show signs of a thorough renovation, in other words; the Black Sox will present a much more formidable array when several new men are added. Seven straight defeats has changed the aspect of Baltimore's pennant Going like a "house fire," Ed Bolden's entry in the Eastern-Colored League is showing a clean pair of heels to the rest of the pack and moving at a clip that will assure them of premier honors unless someone-tosses a wrench into the works.

George Johnson, the fleet center fielder of the Hilldale Club, probably saved the game for his team when he made a sensational one-hand catch of a liner from the bat of Singer in the ninth inning, falling as he glutched the ball, but holding on to the same. Ryan, on the mound for Hilldale, yielded nine hits, but the only run the Lincoln's got was a home run by Singer over the left-field fence in the second inning. The classy infield of Hilldale seated off three double plays on the Lincoln, when they were most needed. The Lincoln also horned in with two double plays. Hilldale tied the score in the fifth, when Thomas opened this inning with a double, was sacrificed to third by George Johnson and scored when J. Johnson sent up a sacrifice fly to left field. The winning marker came over in the ninth, after two men were out. Lloyd hit a long double into the bleachers in right field and scored when Mackey shot a grounder over second base, which Singer just allowed to trickle through his legs.

Lila Lee Outdoes Native Dancers at Panaman Fete While in Panama making scenes for "The Ne'er-Do-Well," a Paramount picturelization of Rex Beach's novel, which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre this week, Lila Lee, Mr. Meighan's leading woman, won the distinction of being the champion Tamberita dancer of the Canal Zone. The Tamberita is the national dance of Panama. At a San Cocho, a native festival given for the company by Senior Parraz, president of the republic, Miss Lee danced in competition with the leading dancers of Panama and easily carried off the honors. She also danced at a reception given at the exclusive Union Club in Panama City. The Tamberita, which is modeled after the national Spanish dance, is not difficult, but depends for its effectiveness on the grace and charm of the dancer. Miss Lee, in the Spanish costume which she wears in the picture, fitted the type exactly, and her graceful movements easily made her the most skilled dancer of the Canal Zone during the company's six weeks' stay at Panama.

Taken on Alleged Charge of Forgery Erstwhile Treasurer of "How Come?" Taken on Alleged Charge of Forgery Variety Tells Us That Both Goldberg and Grisman Were Ousted From the Big Colored Show Now Playing at the Lafayette. (From Variety) Samuel Grisman, erstwhile treasurer of the Criterion Productions, Inc., sponsoring "How Come?" a colored revue at the Lafayette, New York, was arrested Wednesday morning on a warrant for forgery and larceny issued by Magistrate Levine in the West Side Court. The complaining witness is Eddie Hart, of the Sanger & Jordan office. Ben Harris, the Newark (N. J.) attorney and "angel" of the show, issued a $100 check to Hart's order on Grisman's representation that the amount was borrowed from Hart to pay the rent of a rehearsal hall. Harris says he gave the check to Grisman to pay Hart. Hart's affidavit denies ever having made any loan to Grisman, adding that his signature as the endorser of the check is a forgery. Grisman is charged with having forged the endorsement and cashed the check. Grisman was taken first to the West 47th street police station and Azersky, who will hit the rails as then to the 30th street station. He advance man, is fully acquainted will be arraigned Thursday morning with all the tricks and turns that bring a good colored shirt. Grisman was formerly treasurer of the corporation and Jack Goldberg was an officer. Both were busted by the board of directors. It is also stated by George Wolf, attorney for the Harris interests, that both arranged with employees of the corporation to turn back part of their salaries; also with Eddie Hunter, the book writer, to "kick back" a share of his royalties. Harris is said to have sunk $75,000 in the production, although he started out with the intention of "angeling" only to the extent of $5,000 last October. But between October and April he has invested 15 times that amount. The show, after a disastrous try at the Times Square, after paying the Selwyns $16,000 cash in advance as guaranteed rental for four weeks, is now "in" for a summer run at the Lafayette, in Harlem's colored belt. It is reported doing excellent business. Harris, an alumnus of the University of Michigan, where he was captain of the football team and president of the senior class, gave up a lucrative law practice in Newark, where he and his brother, William, a Yale man, were among the foremost bankruptcy lawyers, in order to essay a filer in the show business. Harris is now in personal charge of the show. The charge against Grisman was Harris' decision to single out one instance of an alleged number of abuses and mispractices and proceed legally on it. "How Come?" in Last Big Week at the Lafayette Show Will Leave for Newark to Appear at the Shubert Theatre Next Week Pulling another big midnight show last week, hitting it three times in the same place, "How Come?" the big musical comedy of offering, with Eddie Hunter in the star part, will close a four-weeks' engagement at the Lafayette Theatre next Saturday night. While the production did not draw the same big houses on the last two weeks as it did the first two, fine houses have been in order and the management is fully aware that they had an attraction which drew better on the worst night than quite a number of others playing only one week. Ben Harris, who is now personally piloting the destinies of the show since the passing of Sam Grisman and Jack Goldberg, is satisfied that the road run of the offering will be a big one and Louis Vaudeville and Motion Pictures Grisman Order of "How Come?"

It is said that the show will go into the Shubert Theatre in Newark, N. J., next Monday. Mr. Harris is also personally interested in another house in New Jersey and this will, no doubt, mean that the company will play another date not far from Harlem. Lafayette Theatre Announces New Show Which Will Open at This House Next Monday, Following Close on "How Come?" Company Of the many new shows now in rehearsal in Harlem, "Raisin' Cain" will be the first to allow the first-nighters to pass upon it, as it will open at the Lafayette Theatre next Monday night. The offering is in two big acts and scenes and from what we can learn every effort is being made to make it something worth while and out of the ordinary. Frank Montgomery will be responsible for the dances and a number of charming looking young ladies will be in the chorus. Among the principals will appear Emory Hutchins, Jean Starr, Corressa Madison, Sam Russell, Ruby Mason, George McClennon, Demos Jones, Tozey Green and Percy Wiggins. Mr. Montgomery also informed us that his chorus men will stand out in this show as they are a very capable lot of youngsters. Jimmie Johnson, one of our most promising writers among the younger generation, is writing, the music for the show and those who know him are of the opinion that he is putting together numbers that will find instant favor.

Roosevelt Theatre Closes for the Summer Poor Business Forces Management to Let Theatre Remain Dark for the Next Six Weeks The doors of the Roosevelt Theatre, corner Seventh avenue and 145th street, were closed on Saturday night last on account of poor business and the inability of the management to secure the biggest features to continue a policy announced some months ago. Coming of unusually warm weather also played its part in forcing the management to keep the theatre dark during the summer months, but we understand that the place will be renovated and made spic and span for the fall opening, which will be within the next six weeks. The house is ideally located and if some of the things so necessary should be done here it is a certainty that good business will reward those in control. A series of good pictures will be secured for the people in the immediate vicinity who, we feel, will find much to enjoy at the end of the time stipulated for keeping the place closed. Renovating and fixing up the Roosevelt will do much to bring to the theatre an atmosphere in keeping with the big pictures. Manager Corsen, who has been in personal charge for the past year, is still uncertain if he will return to the house when it reopens, but his many friends in the community are hoping that he will again be sent here, as he is of a very general disposition and all those with whom he has been brought into contact speak highly of him.

Well-Known Dancer Charged With Hitting Three People With Auto Attorney for Colored Performer Claims That Persons Hit Were Guilty of Contributory Negligence in Accident at 127th Street. That the white folks downtown on the weeklies seem to glory in our misfortune is seen in the manner that Zit's Weekly has played up an unfortunate accident which happened to Eddie Rector recently; also the suit brought by some cabaret entertainers for moneys which they claim should have been paid long ago. In reproducing these stories we do so with the idea of again proving to the colored performers that their own journals should receive more of their support, as we are the only ones to whom they can bring their troubles and have them presented to the public in the dignified style which marks almost anything the white weeklies have to say about white performers. A certain gentleman, who gained a little success with Shuffle Along, not only through what he contributed but with the help of others, made the assertion one night that he never read the colored papers and did not think anything of them, anyway. He went so far as to say that these papers only reproduced what the white papers used days before. The reproduction of these articles will prove that the Amsterdam News, at least, has never seen fit during the time the writer has been in charge of the sporting and dramatic pages to reproduce matter from the downtown papers. We are willing to part with a little money if anybody can bring us a paper with articles such as these appearing today. CAST EXCITES "LITTLE AFRIICA" Cabaret Owners and Performers in Court Battle. Within the precincts of "Little Africa" all is black this week, and a gray, depressing atmosphere covers the length and breadth of the Negro district. And the cause for this down-in-the-mouth expression that characterizes the black belt of Harlem at this time is that Edmund Johnson, the Hamitic owner of Johnson's Negro cabaret, is in trouble with two of his former entertainers. It is even likely that the ancient institution that he controls on the corner of 132nd street and Fifth avenue may have its doors barred and a sheriff's seal stuck conspicuously for would-be patrons of this palace of joy to view with alarm. It was learned this week that Attorney Ell Johnson, of 1540 Broadway, has been retained by Martha Lucas, affectionately known as "Freckles" by the Moorish Lenox avenue dandles, and Freddy Guy, who were entertainers in Edmond Johnson's cabaret until a short time ago. In their behalf Attorney Johnson has filed papers in the Seventh District Municipal Court, alleging that there is due from Edmond Johnson to "Freckles" the sum of $250 and to his client, Fred Guy. $241.50 for back pay According to the complaint filed the two entertainers some time ago agreed to perform in Johnson's cabaret for the weekly remuneration of $20. The sum is in itself a nominal one, since their garnering of tips depended entirely on the inclination of the clientele of the cabaret and the ability of the performers to shake their hips in the approved Mississippi levee fashion. The entertainers charge in the complaint that their erstwhile employer, Johnson, would give them now $5 a week and then less and sometimes no money at all. He however, promised to "come through" some other time. Up to recently, it is alleged, the cabaret owner "hung up" debts to his two star performers amounting to the sum asked in the complaint. The matter will be heard before the judge in the Seventh Municipal Court next week, and it is known that if a judgment is awarded in behalf of the entertainers and their former employer falls to "fork over," his place will be visited by a sheriff, with instructions to lock up "Booths and Spaces for Business as Well as Show.

WILLIAM, Chairman of Booths. WM, H. ROACH, Gen, Mgr. Eddie Rector Sued for Fifteen Thousand Dollars After Auto Wreck. Lady Luck, the patron saint of all colored folk, has this week turned her back on Eddie Rector, better known through his association with the well-known team of Negro entertainers formerly at the Plantation Revue, Grace and Eddie. His heart is heavy even though his cheerful countenance at the Pavilion Royal, where he is appearing, belies the fact that he is being sued for $15,000 for injuries alleged to have been sustained when he is said to have run down with his newly-acquired car a Harlem mother and her two offspring. Some time ago the same Lady Luck smiled bonevolently at Eddie Rector. He and Graco, who is his lawful wedded spouse, danced nightly at the Plantation, and the team amassed a comfortable sock the cabaret and later sell all the furnishings therein to satisfy the claims of "Freckles" and Freddy. of lucre. Daily Eddie and his wife world bank in the presence of their saint. Their troubles were few and their happiness truly great. When they secured their engagement at the Pavilion Royal their cup of joy was filled almost to its oosing over onto the tablecloth. Everything wont smoothly until Eddie decided that he would subtract some of his self from the savings bank where it lingered and amassed interest and with it buy an automobile. Many glorious hours did the Negro entertainers spend in automobile salons, marvelling at the handsome gasoline wagons, the ownership of which could be barely indicative of their social standing in the society of Harlem. At last they chose an Hesse for their own personal coach. For a few days they drove to and from the Pavilion Royal to the gilstening smell wagon. All this while Lady Luck was never more than an arm's reach from the couple. She rode in the tonneau of their newly-acquired car. But on a certain sunshine Sunday afternoon Lady Luck decided that she would quit them, and rather suddenly, for, according to the statements of Abraham Heyert, an attorney of 5 Beekman street, Eddie ran his car into Mrs. Rebecca Aronoff and her two children, Gusie and Yetta, injuring them. The Aronoffs have brought suit through Heyert for $15,000, alleging negligence in driving at the time the accident occurred on Fifth avenue at 125th street. Eddie's attorney is Eli Johnson, of 1540 Broadway, who declared in his answer to Heyert's complaint that those said to be struck by Eddie's machine were guilty of contributory negligence. He also said that his client was proceeding down Fifth avenue at a same rate of speed, the road was crowded with vehicles and the Aronoffs dashed in front of his machine before he could apply the brakes. He also declares that if he had not been so careful those hurt might have been in danger of losing their lives. Eugene Martin Thrills Audience at Fine Recital The recital by Eugene Mars Martin Thursday evening in the Abyssinian Baptist Church recital hall surpassed all expectations, both in musicianship, as well as technical skill. Although but a youth, this young musician plays with conservative maturity that becomes an artist much in advance of his years. His interpretation of the beautiful Mendelssohn concerto made one forget that there were technical difficulties in this exacting work, every other phase of the composi- Drama and Comedy tion being submerged by the tonal beauty of the player. The Nocturne by Chopin transcribed for violin by Sarasate showed the violin as king of musical instruments, singing as only the human voice can, sing. The showy pieces of Sarasate, Wienlawski and Kreisler were delightful for their brilliancy and technical precision. The accompanist was Mr. Samuel Josbe, who has been frequently heard with the leading violinists of the day. His support was dawning and added much to the performance. May notable musicians attended.

The Circulation of THE Amsterdam News Has Increased Nearly 5,000 Copies In the Last Six Months More Copies Sold in Harlem Than All Other Weeklies Combined "THERE'S A REASON" It's Full of News The Only 3 Cent, 12 Page Colored Newspaper Published in the United States Yearly Subscription $1.50 The Association of Trade and Commerce, composed of business and professional men, located in their own home, 2270 Seventh Avenue, organized in 1920, have just about completed their plans for the business boom for Harlem's notred business. A committee, of which Wm H. Roach and W. H. Willis are chairmen, has been given full charge to carry the Exposition to a glorious success. The Association takes it as its moral responsibility to help in every possible way every colored business not only in Harlem but throughout the country, if possible. This exposition will give quite a few an opportunity to place their wares before the buying public in a creditable and direct way, and should establish new selling and buying contacts and develop an educational influence over the consumers to regard seriously the Neuros who have entered the commercial world and are doing things that are stimulating and inspiring. This exposition is to stimulate the initiative and vision of the manufacturer and producer and to encourage the buyer in the selection and purchase of his merchandise. This is the first concrete proposition the A. sociation has presented to help the business man blaze his way in the commercial world. It is the hope of the board of directors that the present business man will accept this opportunity to give the public a chance to see his goods, and that it will prove an inspiration to the coming generations of the colored race in America. The Association feels that it is up to the business men of the community to assure the public that they want its patronage on a merit basis only, and that their prices are right. Exhibition booths are in charge of W. H. Willis.

THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR GROWLING OUT OVER SIX YEARS SAY, I'M RETURNIN' THIS SUIT YOU MADE FOR ME. WHO EVER KIDDED YOU INTO BELIEVIN' YOU WAS A TAILOR, HUH? JUST STEP IN HERE SIR AND PUT IT ON, SO I CAN SEE WHAT IS WRONG. YOU OUCHTA TAKE THAT TAILOR SWINGLE IN AN' GO IN FOR BRICK LAYIN'. WHY THAT SUIT PITS LIKE A CLOVE! YEHI LIKE A BOXIN' CLOVE! AN ENTERPRISE THAT MERITS YOUR SUPPORT Notwithstanding the amount of shipping that is now lying idle in the harbors and docks of the United States, ocean travelers are still obliged to pay high rate for trans-Atlantic travel, and an unparalleled opportunity to build up the American Merchant Marine is being lost. Recognizing this fact, and realizing that the time was opportune for an undertaking of this nature, the organizers of the Great Northern Steamship Co. formed their Corporation, which received its charter from the State of Massachusetts. October 11, 1932. They visualized a new ocean steamship line, plying between Boston and European ports, controlled by the people, which would offer to these same people a chance for ocean travel on comfortable commodious ships, at a price within the reach of all, but large enough to allow a profit for the inventor and a sufficient margin to allow for the carrying on and enlarging of the enterprise. This was their threefold purpose—to render a genuine service to the people—to help build up American shipping—and to bring business and trade to the port of Boston. In spite of the failure of the Ship Subidy Bill, in spite of the opposition which each new competitor in an established field encounters, this company is bringing its plans to maturity and expects that very soon it will be able to offer definite sailing dates to the public. This, surely, is an enterprise that merits your support. 2000 ATTEND PROTEST MEETING FOR GARVEY Attacks on Federal Judge Mack, Assistant United States Attorney Mattuck, France, England and the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, as being responsible for the imprisonment of Marcus Garvey, who is in the Tombs, held without bail, following his conviction of using the mails to defraud were listened to by 2,000 persons Sunday afternoon in Liberty Hall.

"Kid" Collins, who spread the first news of the negro uprising at Elaine, Ark., in 1819, was shot and killed Wednesday when he is alleged to have attacked L. P. Smith, logging camp operator. The killing of Collins came coincidentally with the release in Little Rock of six colored men convicted of implication in the Elaine rioting, but with no connection in the two happenings. Collins was in an automobile with a deputy sheriff and a railroad agent at the time they were fired on at Hoop's Spur, near Elaine, the initial act of lawlessness which precipitated the disorder. Escaping from the scene, Collins fanned a train, told the侦探 of the experience, and an alarm was telephoned to Melissa. I would like to know if my mother is living would like to find her. Last I heard from her she was living on East 50th St. New York City. Her first morning, name was Mamie E. Sweetman, second, Mamie Curly. Anayez, Cocil Sweetman, Church Hill, Stamford. Free Man in Jail Neariy Seven Months JACKSONVILLE, Fla., June 25. Bernard Jones has been a free man for nearly seven months, but did not know it—he has been in jail all that time. That fact was made known to Jones when he was brought Into the Criminal Court and informed his being in jail was all a mistake. Court records show that he was indicted at the last October term on a charge of assault to murder, but the case was noiseless November 29, 1922. Recently it was discovered that he still was in jail on the charge and he was brought into court and dismissed. Just what Jones said upon being released cannot be published. WELCOME STRANGER COM.

Mrs. Anna Jones Robinson, secretary of the committee reported on activities during the past year.

Hubert, Executive Secretary of the New York Urban League, announced that the growth of the work has necessitated the purchase of two buildings that are soon to be the League's permanent headquarters. 2500 "WHIPPING PARTIES" STAGED IN OKLAHOMA OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., June 30.—There have been at least 2,500 "whipping parties" in Oklahoma in the last year, according to unofficial information received by Governor Walton, according to a statement issued here today by Aldrich Blake, the Executive's secretary. Blake asserted that letters revealing violence at the hands of masked bands had been pouring into the Governor's office since martial law was declared in Okmulgee County last Tuesday. The reports indicated there had been an average of one whipping a day in Tulsa County and about one a week in Oklahoma County. "I do not mean to say and do not want to leave the impression that all this has been done by any one organization." Blake explained. "These outrages cannot be traced to any one organization directly. However, I believe most of them could be traced indirectly." Springwood Avenue, in Anbury Park, is now the proud possessor of one of the best appointed amusement dance halls in the country.

Mr. Du Prie has further installed a first-class bedfit bench in the Reckon for the refreshment accommodation of his ever-increasing palate. Music is furnished for the new place by a special group of trained musicians imported abroad from a well-known hostelry of New York City. Kansas Daily Newspaper Endorses National Association's Protest An editorial published in the Topeka Daily Capital of June 19, 1923, endorses a protest by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against the showing in Kansas of "The Birth of a Nation" film. Commenting upon the Association's telegram to Governor Davis of Kansas, urging him to prevent the film being shown, the Topeka Daily Capital said: "Not only state and local, but national action, has been taken by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People against the new attempt to show a vicious Southern race film, 'The Birth of a Nation,' in Kansas. In Governor Capper's and Governor Allen's terms permission to show this picture in the state was refused. When the association named heard of the appeal for an exhibition of the film to Gov. Davis it telegraphed the governor urging, that, you continue the splendid example of former governors of Kansas in forbidding exhibitions of this film, capitalizing and spreading as it does vicious racial prejudices which should have no part in American life." "It is difficult to see any purpose to be served by the revived attempt to show this picture. There are no conditions in Kansas warranting it. The picture is blazed as history and sectional in its appeal. It can not claim art as its motive, for propaganda sticks out all over it. Evil can easily come of it in its power of stimulating passion, and this is a sufficient objection against any picture to which it applies. The Birth of a Nation" has been kept out of Kansas for reasons as strong today as at any time in the last five years." The Topeka Daily Capital is published by Senator Arthur Cappar, who is a member of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. SCULPTORS IN TILT OVER MAMMY STATUE WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2.—Ulric S. J. Dunbar, a sculptor of this city, is accusing George Pulian Zolnay, another sculptor of distinction, of "stealing" his ideas. Their controversy centers around a memorial group symbolizing the devotion shown by the colored Mammy of half a century ago to the white children placed in her care. Dunbar says he made the model for such a group 16 years ago. Zolnay modeled his tablet depicting a Negro Mammy holding a white child in her arms while her own colored child attends at her side crying for attention, a few months ago. Dunbar claims that Zolnay's tablet is an absolute steal from the memorial tablet, which he. Dunbar, modeled 16 years ago. POSTMASTER MORGAN IS CONGRATULATED The employee in the mailing division of the General Post Office, through their spokesman, Guilford M. Crawford, congratulated their chief executive, Postmaster Edward M. Morgan, on his having reached, the fifth milestone in the journey through which he has traveled in the nation's postal service. Mr. Crawford, who is well known throughout the city, made the presentation last Friday morning and received the hearty greetings of his chief. Denial of Education Plays Part in Migration Statistics showing the part played by denial of educational opportunities to southern Negroes in bringing about the northward migration, were published recently by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City. The statistics, taken from state educational reports, show that in some cases $8 to $10 is spent upon every white pupil in the southern states for $1 spent upon the colored pupil; and that colored teachers are so underpaid as to make it impossible in some cases for them to live upon their salaries. In all of the southern states, according to the report, small and insanitary school houses preponderate among those supplied to Negro children. Furthermore little or no provision is made for transporting colored children to and from school. Also, school terms are almost universally shorter for colored children than for white and almost universally colored schools are over-crowded and the number of pupils to a teacher is larger than in the white schools.

Whyte as the presiding lady. Solos were rendered in a very artistic way by Mrs. Ward, Isles, and Downs. A violin selection by Mr. Hodgess was charming. Mr. Ogarra sang in his rich tenor voice. A recitation by Miss H. Missett was intelligently recited. The Misses Osborne rendered both a violin selection and a plano duet with such ease and gracefulness that our souls were charmed. Miss Veronica Piggot was audible in her recitation "The Lily." Her gestures "and tone of voice made an impression on the minds of her hearers. Mr. J. Sealley rendered "Morning Prayer" in a fervent manner. A duet by Mrs. Whyte and Miss Cheesowright was very beautifully played, but the "Burning of Rome" by Miss Osborne was a piece ever to be remembered. RENDALL MEMORIAL Services at the Randall Memorial Presbyterian Church, 122 West 129th Street, last Sunday morning were well attended. Dr. Lawton, the pastor, prescheduled and their names were baptised and their names added to the membership roll of the church.

M. on special morning sermons are thoughtful and practical, and are attracting many visitors. MITCHELL RESIGNS AS PYTHIAN HEAD PETERSBURG, Va., June 20.—John Mitchell, Jr., grand chancellor of the Pythians of Virginia, resigned his office at the State meeting last week. Mr. Mitchell is under a sentence for three years, pending an appeal on charges growing out of the receivership of the Mechanics Bank. Attorney William Reed, of Portsmouth, was elected to fill his place under orders of the State Insurance Department, into whose hands the affairs of the Pythians have been placed since the loss of its funds in the bank failure. Mr. Mitchell, resigning, issued the following statement: "No sooner than the receivership of the Grand Lodge of Virginia is ended, I will be the Grand Chancellor again, and furthermore the Grand Lodge of Virginia will not accept the proposition of the Supreme Lodge offered by Supreme Chancellor Green." A GOOD JOB. Charles M. Schwab delights in telling the following story of an incident in one of the steel mills under his charge: "One day while I was passing through the works I looked out on someone sitting in the first floor of an adjoining ship and a big Irishman sitting on the handles of his whelobarrow smoking his pipe. I called to him. What are you doing down there? Why don't you get to work? "To which the Irishman replied, 'Well, tell me, and who are you, sir!' "I said, 'I'm the general manager.' "Well, young man, said he, you've got a damned good job; you'd better take care of it.'"—Forbes Magazine. REASONABLE DOUBT. "There's a feller stopping here who says he is from Kansas City" related the landlord of the tavern at Jimmies' junction. "But I be myself my life is tying about that." What makes one of the landowners ask "Why, he also says he had never been held up or shot, or anything of the sort. My notion is that he is really from somewhere else and is hiding out from somebody."—Kansas City Star. THE CLAIRMOYAK Mme. White, museums and booking hours from 5 to 10 P.M. M. 216 West 11th Street.

Willis Phone Bradhurst 0667 Careless Shampooing Spoils the Hair. Soap should be used very carefully. You want to keep your hair looking its best. Make sure and prepared shampoo contains too much free alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and ruins it. The best thing for steady use is Mulised coconut oil shampoo (which is less irritant than normal shampoo) and is better than anything else you can use. Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulified is sufficient to cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply moisten the hair with water and rub it in. It makes an abundance of rich, creamy lather, which rinses out easily, removing every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and crusts off easily, and it leaves the soft, soft, and the hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous, soft, wavy, and easy to manage. You can get Mulified coconut oil shampoo at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and a few ounces will supply every member of the family for months. Be sure and ask for "Mulified."

Stamford, Conn. In the number of graduates from the Public Schools of Stamford were: Rebecca Sprewell, Robert Dowell, Helen Roberts, William McKelthan, Edna Lucas, William Sprewell, Jr., color photo. Rebecca Sprewell, Jr., color photo. Gold Star in Physical Culture, doing the best work of her school for the year. She deserves great credit for her accomplishment. Two years ago she came from the South and was demoted to the 6th grade. In those years she insisted the remaining three grades and has now been graduated. Mr. Howard Lewis was ordained on Tuesday night as Minister of the Baptist Church. Mr. Lewis is a man of whom the people of Stamford can be proud, having graduated from Stamford High School with honors, then taking courses in Colgate College, and graduating with honors. Then as principal and teacher in Trenton, New Jersey, the position he now holds, he undertook his studies for the ministry, and has now been ordained. Mr. Lewis has not been called, but rather born to the Ministry, for as child his interest in the Bible was启蒙 that he could answer intelligently an elderly man than a child very nearly any ordinary question on the Bible.

Never would we take it upon ourselves to suggest that Andrew Tribble is leading us by a mighty good margin in the matters of years, but we can remember in the early days when, as a youngster, we sat in many a "peanut gallery" and enjoyed the work of Andrew as "Babe" Johnson. We can even go so far as to say that many of those now appearing in some of our biggest shows were as far away from the stage as we are from flying around in an airship when Andrew first attracted attention as a female impersonator. In those days many had attempted the kind of work he is at present being in "How Come?" but none of them made the hit Tribble did when he first came through New York, and, if we remember correctly, the first time that we had reached the age that we could attend a theatre without any question, was when he came here with the original "Smart Set." True, before this he had already done some fine work and maybe he made a big a bit as when we first saw him, but to us he reached great heights, as "Babe Johnson," and every time we see him as Ophelia Snow in "Home Come?" we are reminded of those early days. Tribble, unlike a number we all know so well, is a manly man in spite of his female impersonations and even now few can recognize in a little unassuming fellow the same man who cuts up in a wench character every night. Andrew is going on the road with "How Come?" and we look for some splendid reports of his work to come in after they get started. It has been some time, aye, not since the days of J. Leubrie Hill in "My Friend From Kentucky," that such a character has been allowed a "stand-out" place in any of our shows and Tribble is still holding its own and leading all rivals. LYNCHINGS DECREASE IN UNITED STATES Lynchings in the United States during the first six months of 1923 ripped to 11, compared with 33 for the same period in 1922, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People announced yesterday. The decrease was attributed to agitation for a Federal Anti-Lynch law, to the northward migration of Negroes and the consequent desire to retain Negro labor in the mouth. Florida had three lynchings, Georgia two and Arkansas, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas one each. APARTMENTS Sought, Sold and To Let. Money to Lend on Bond and Mortgage. GEORGE W.

THE PRESENTATION. IN RESPONSE to repeated and insistent demands of Negro Republicans of the Twenty-first Assembly District. Robert S. Conkling, executive member of the district, has designated Dr. Charles H. Roberts and Miss Sadie F. Wright as associate members of the Executive Committee. Mr. Conkling further expressed it as his opinion "that the members from the election districts east of Edgecombe avenue should hold a conference and express their preference for such associate members; and that the executive member chosen for the new term should be guided by such preference in making his designation." THE EXECUTIVE MEMBER "should" be guided by such preference, but the question is WILL he be guided by such preference? He does not say that he will be thus guided, and we are compelled to entertain the suspicion that he will not be guided by the selections of the colored leaders of the districts unless it is to his own interests. This is not as it should be. This is not representation in the party councils of the Republican party. This leaves the Negro Republican voter of the Twenty-first Assembly. District still at the mercy of Robert S. Conkling and provides nothing except a "hat in hand" Negro leadership not worthy of the name. THE NEGRO LEADERS of the district are entitled to the same rights and privileges given leaders of other racial groups in districts where two or more races reside, and should accept nothing less. They are entitled to a half-vote in the Executive County Committee and should be left free to cast this half-vote in the way they see fit to cast it, whether or not it is to the interest or to the detriment of the white leader. THIS IS REPRESENTATION. Eternal Vigilance DUE to the eternal vigilance of the Al Association for the Advancement of People six colored peons, accusipating in the Elaine County. A jripting in October, 1919, have been the Supreme Court of that State. DUE to the eternal vigilance of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People six colored peons, accused of participating in the Elaine County, Arkansas, rioting in October, 1919, have been freed by the Supreme Court of that State. The fact that these men have been freed attests their innocence of the crimes for which they have been held so long in prison. It would have been no surprise to anyone if these men had been put to death, though innocent. The Governor of Arkansas would have been considered extremely generous if he had commited their death sentences to life in prison, knowing all the while that they were innocent. They do not owe their freedom to the fact that they are innocent of the crimes charged against them and for which they were twice convicted. Hundreds of innocent Negro men and women have been put to death for lesser crimes. THEY ARE FREE today because Morsfield Storey, an ex-president of the Bar Association, backed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which in its turn is backed by thousands of Negroes throughout the length and breadth of the country, proved beyond the slightest doubt that it would be a crime to put the new to death and SUBSCRIBED $14,000 TO DEFEND THEM IN THE COURTS. THIS should furnish a lesson in practical unity for all of us. Ten cents each from every colored person living in Greater New York would have raised this amount and more. Yet, there are thousands of Negroes living here who did not contribute a penny to the fund, who are not members of the association, who have never attended one of its meetings, who claim that the N.A.A.C.P. is, no good, and who continually deride its officials. Unquestionably, these men would have been dead long ago but for this association and the trivial sum raised to defend them. IF you feel that an organization that has saved the lives of six of your fellowmen, at a cost of $14,000, is worth helping, there is no better time than the present, when it is holding its annual membership drive. It needs your help and you need its help. Six other cases growing out of the Arkansas riots are still pending in the courts. Six of our fellowmen, just as innocent, maybe, as the six who have been freed, walk daily in the shadow of the gallows. WILL YOU STAND IDLY BY AND SEE THE TRAP SPRUNG ON THEM WHEN YOUR CO-OPERATION AND FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE MAY SAVE THEM? Mixing Races WHAT ACTION should be taken to the mixing of races in dance in question was asked by the "Indian photographer" of a daily newspaper column. The answers given clearly narrowness, jealousy and hatred of mixed races in America. "Dance in mixed races mix are certainly the ones." "Close every place wherever." "The yellow races should not own dance halls" they "should permanently." "Colored and white cannot mingle happily." and "Stricter" are some of the things recomposed in the six persons interviewed to erase evil." NE would think from reading letters that white women are imbecile absolutely unable to choose their diets and that if the superiority of any race, civilized and uncivilized and inferior, is able to pick or associates, even in a dance hall, as opposed to the barring of Oriental halls simply because they are white. They are not accused of forcing to dance with them, and those who with them do so of their own IS THIS A CRIME? IND YOU, we are not putting unmerged for cheek-to-cheek or liping; nor do we see wherein any good comes to the girl whose face of public dance halls—white, color or yellow. If cheek-to-cheek does immoral influence on white girls with Japanese or Filipinos, it has influence when indulged in by white and white men, colored girls and women. Dance halls of a certain or immorality and vice, and should, but we fail to see in what way of Oriental and colored races. If white mothers do not want their to associate with men of color and if colored mothers do not, daughters to associate with white dance halls or in other places, instruction is effect should begin in the home. "WHAT ACTION should be taken to prevent the mixing of races in dance halls?" This question was asked by the "Inquiring Photographer" of a daily newspaper of six persons. The answers given clearly show the narrowness, jealousy and hatred of the colored races in America. "Dance halls wherein races mix are certainly the worst misances." "Close every place where it is allowed." "The yellow races should have their own dance halls." they "should be closed permanently." "Colored and white persons cannot mingle happily," and "Strict regulation" are some of the things recommended by the six persons interviewed to end this great evil." ONE would think from reading these answers that white women are imbeciles who are absolutely unable to choose their own associates and that if the superiority of the race is to be maintained they must not be permitted to mingle with men of other races. We believe that the average, rational individual of any race, civilized and uncivilized, superior and inferior, is able to pick out his own associates, even in a dance hall, and we are opposed to the barring of Orientals from dance halls simply because they are Orientals. They are not accused of forcing white girls to dance with them, and those who do dance with them do so of their own free will. IS THIS A CRIME? MIND YOU. we are not putting up any argument for cheek-to-cheek or lip-to-lip dancing; nor do we see wherein any permanent good comes to the girl who is a habitue of public dance halls—white, colored, brown or yellow. If cheek-to-cheek dancing has an immoral influence on white girls dancing with Japanese or Filipinos, it has the same influence when indulged in by white girls and white men, colored girls and colored men. Dance halls of a certain calibre breed immorality and vice, and should be closed, but we fail to see in what way the barring of Oriental and colored races will help. If white mothers do not want their daughters to associate with men of other races and if colored mothers do not want their daughters to associate with white men in dance halls or in other places, instruction to this effect should begin in the home.

THOMAS FLEMING, 70 W. 149th St. June 28, 1853 WEEK DAY SERMONETTES In this manner therefore, pray ye, "Our Father."—Matt. 6:9. MEN did not know God until Jesus came. They thought of Him as being all-wise, all-powerful, and everywhere present, but such a God repelled rather than attracted them. Being conscious of sin, they could not help but stand in awe of a God who possessed all power, knew all they did, and from whose presence they could not escape. It was utterly impossible to love a God like that. Jesus came and revealed this same God in a way to make Him attract and not repel men. He showed the omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent God to be a God who loved sinful men much more than His God—joint heir with Jesus Christ. The poorest, weakest and most unworthy of us are privileged to address God as our Father. We need have no mental reservation in doing so because the relation is not an assumption on our part, but a voluntary gift of God. See what wonderful benefits are ours because the self-existent great "First Cause." God Almighty, as es-sisted in the between himself and rebellious man which entitles us to call Him "Our Father." 1. If we think of God as a father we do not have to understand great mysteries to know Him. A self-existent, all-powerful, all-knowing and everywhere present God is too mysterious for us to either know or love. But God, as revealed by His son—a father—is easily understood and loved. Anyone who can understand the final relation between father and child knows just how close we are to God. If more of us would think of ourselves as God's children, there would be fewer people making bad history. Could a man be a rapiet, a member of the mob, a liar, a cheat, a thief, or anything else that would relate him in a hurried way to even the weakest and humblest being, if he were thinking of God as his father? No, a thousand times. People who think of themselves as children of God are so proud of the relationship that they try to think, do and say those things which they believe will reflect credit on Him. Therefore, knowing God as a Father is a constant incentive to live one's beat. II. We do not have to make Him love us. Do we have to make our earthly fathers love us? Of course not. The reason our fathers toll, sacrifice and pray for us is because of their love. Even when punishment is administered, the undelying cause is love. If humanity's children die without being induced or persuaded to do so, how much more does God love us without inducement or persuasion on our part. III. All that He has He has for us. We are told in the Bible that "the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof." Everything is His by creative right. If we are His children, we are heirs to all that belongs to Him. Therefore, it is entirely in order to ask our father for the things we need. Too many people believe it is all right to pray for soul needs but not for bodily necessities. If we trust Him, God will supply all our physical as well as spiritual needs. Verily all that He has He has for us. IV. All that He is. He is for us. God has all power. We, as His children, are no weaker, if we lean on them, then the Everlasting Arms. No enemy is strong enough to harm those who trust Him. God knows all things. If He is our Father, how comforting is that thought! If we fall victims to sin, God knows just how strong we the temptation. God is everywhere. Oh, how joyous the thought that my Father is everywhere! If I am weak. He is there to give strength; if alone. His presence comforts me; if in the Are You 96 Per Cent Perfect? Postal Employees Must Be WASHINGTON, _____ When ever you complain about the mistakes of the Postoffice Department ask yourself if you are 86 per cent perfect in your work. The minimum efficiency demanded of those who handle the mail is 86 per cent. The average accuracy of the vast majority of postal employees, however, is very much above the minimum. Quite recently, for example, the Newark (M. J.) postoffice made ten mistakes in handling 2,000,000 pieces of mail. Newark postal employees handle an average of 900,000 pieces of mail a day. It is not believed that any organization in the United States can show as high a record for accuracy of work performed as the Postoffice Department. KNOCKED DOWN. Uncle Thompson, 17, 201 W. 143rd St. was knocked down by a magnitude of 200 W. 143rd St. dark. He is my light; if foes assail and friends torseake, my Father is present to protect. Negroes thinking of God as their Father should be optimistic indeed. He will take care of the own. He may that, by lives consistent with His will, we are His very own; then "smile at Satan's rage." God will make for us friends from among those who oppress. If you could have attended the Oklahoma State Interracial Meeting some weeks ago you would agree with me on that point. White men and white women, representing the best of their race in intellect, morals and religion, took a stand on the race question as generous and as broad as the Christian religion could make it. They pledged themselves to get behind the interracial program with all the force at their command. Let us rejoice in the fact that all God is in the perfection of His attributes He is for his children; and that, thank God, includes the ebon-hued sons and daughters of Ham. Dramatization Dramatization of Negro History MABEL TRAVIS WOOD The story of the experience of the colored people in America, with all its drama of struggles and of attainments, has recently been brought to light by the presentation in several cities of a pageant. "The Milestones of a Race," Miss Ada Crogman, a talented young colored woman, who is a dramatic organizer for the Playground and Recreation Association of America, is the author of the pageant. She has directed its production, using colored groups organized for recreation activities in varidus cities by Community Service, maintained by the Playground and Recreation Association of America. The story of the expert America, with all its drama, has recently been brought to several cities of a pageant, Miss Ada Crogman, a talent is a dramatic organizer for Association of America, is it has directed its production, for recreation activities in Service, maintained by the association of America. The pagan artistically deplays the progress of the race; first, exhibiting ancestral idol worship in Africa and proceeding to American citizenship and participation in the World War. Some of its episodes are—Scenes in an African Village, American Slave Market, In the Cotton Fields, Evening Worship, Freedom, Progress, Flanders Field and Black American Stars. A musical program of great beauty accompanies the pagan and has given chorus and poets opportunities to present spirits, plantation songs and music by modern Negro composers in a way that has been an inspiration to thousands. Unusual interest has been manifested both by colored and white audiences wherever the pageant has been produced. At Rockford, Ill., where two hundred members of the Booker T. Washington center were the actors, the pageant played to packed houses on two evenings. Important people who witnessed it and sent written commendation included the Lieutenant Governor of the State of Illinois and the president of the Rockford Kiwanis Club. The pastor of the city's leading white church said: "I had no idea that there was as much talent among the colored people in Rockford as was shown in the pageant." A leading business man wrote: "We can truthfully say that this is the most successful amateur play that has ever attempted. Community cannot help but feel that this pageant will result in more good than could have been accomplished through any other source." After "The Milestones of a Race" had been presented by a cast of five hundred colored people of Dayton, Ohio, the chairman of the Federation for Social Service among colored people of this city wrote: "It is a mild expression to say that the federation is pleased with the work and further feels that the achievement has advanced the work of community service in this city to an extent that will be encouraging to the colored people and elegantly impressive upon the whites." The largest crowd of white and colored people ever attending any effort put forth by colored people in Dayton saw the production. When the actor representing Paul Lawrence Dunker appeared, followed by the poet's mother, Mary Matthias Dunker, in person, the house user with assistance. In this production the operators were given a more quantitative understanding of Inevitable Africa SLOWLY, but over surely, the sons and daughters of Ham are creeping into the cal- cium and making a noise like a race once worth white. Old King Toot, for instance, bobbed up at a most inconvenient time. Kilques and Klans had just about persuaded every- body that the Negro never was anything, isn't anything now and never will be anything. Then Cameron and Carter entered into the tomb of kings and discovered King Toot. There was plenty of newspaper pulse for a moment. Then silence! Have you ever wondered why? The truth is that folks wanted to know too much. They wanted to know just what Mr. Toots looked like. It would never have done to say that Toot was the color of bleached coal or the color of fistles couldn't help to put on the soft glove it put on the soft whisper low, sweet charlot, and lock up Brother Toot for a year or so. But Toot was only one blackbird out of a million. A white face in Toot's time was as scarce as a dimpled daisy in December. Let the truth come out. It won't hurt anybody. It may give a gentle jolt to history, but the old girl can stand it. She has stood worse than that in her sweet young life. In fact, things may seem a little more homelike—maybe. She knows that when it comes to claiming a place in the sun, old Africa stalked the first home-site. Here was the sun god and the moon god and all the little gods. The time is here. Africa is holding a royal flush.

WOMEN SEEK JUSTICE FOR ALL OKLAHOMA CITY, June 25.—(Special)—More than a score of Oklahoma's leading women, meeting in this city a few days ago, followed the example of the women of 10 other Southern States by organizing for the promotion of better race relations through co-operation with the State Inter-Racial Committee. The personnel of the group was notable, including the presidents of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, the State Association of University Women and the Woman's Legislative Council, and of nearly, all the denominational missionary organizations. On the basis of their special interests, the women pledged themselves to a study of the needs of Negro homes and to the effort to remedy such conditions as threaten their welfare and purity. A committee was appointed to make this study, and others were appointed to study school and church conditions. DEATH PENALTY FOR HUMAN FLESH EATERS PARIS.—Albert Sarrant, French Minister of Colonies, who was one of France's representatives at the Washington naval armament limitation and pacific conference, has just signed two decrees intended to extirpate the practice of cannibalism in the French African possessions. The death penalty is to be imposed on any one killing or trying to kill human beings for the purpose of eating their flesh. Impersonation of from one to ten years and a fine of from 100 to 1,000 francs are to be the punishment for complicity in such crimes or for eating human flesh. Cannibalism survives. M. Sarrant says, principally under the form of ritual rites or acts of sorcery. FRANCE TO CONSTRUCT TRANS-SAHARA ROAD According to a copyrighted cable dispatch to the New York Tribune, by Warre B. Walla, "the construction of the trans-Saharan railroad, which will rank as one of the greatest engineering feats in the history of the world, inaugurating a new era in international transportation, now has emerged from the region of unattainable visions and reached the point of actuality. It shortly will be taken up by the French Chamber as a concrete presentation, according to authentic reports." Keeping Fit By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M.D. The French Revolution THE STORY OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION. By E. Sefort Bax. Published by the New York Labor News Co. 45 Rost street, New York; 120 Pages, $2. TUBERCULOSIS is still extremely prevalent. State, municipal and private philanthropic agencies are working with might and main to lessen the number of cases of this most disastrous disease. Health education among the people, early detection of the disease, the proper sanitary environment, the proper treatment are the implements constantly being used to stop the inroads of this prevalent malady. The benefits thus far attained are slight. Other methods are needed. Medical science and social science are now looking toward the satisfactor and preventorium as an efficient means of cure and preventing this scourge of modern cities. The sanitarium for tuberculosis has been found to be an efficient method for the health restoring of early cases of tuberculosis, also serves as an institution for the amputation of a tubercular infection in the home. The longer a tubercular person remains at home, especially in the city tenements, the more the infection spreads to other memorials to the immediate and surrounding areas. Every large city should have a tubercular order that the early cases of tuberculosis may have the proper and the most efficient care and environment. New York City has not enough of these institutions, and the population of New York City multiorna treatment for tuberculosis is not prevalent. The main reason for this is that New York city has not enough of these institutions, and those that are in existence are dominated by the white population. The tubercular patient has to wait for a vacancy. This vacancy sel- EVEN of books that are worth while our age pays forth such a full and continuous 'flow that no one person can read them all. Wherefore, our thanks are due to those who furnish handbooks and compendiums in which subjects about which we should have some knowledge are compressed and reduced to manageable proportions. Mr. Belfort Bax is an English scholar with a well-deserved European reputation in the domain of social history. His works on The Reformation, Germany Society, The Close of the Middle Ages, The Peasants' War, The Rise and Fall of the Anabaptists and German Culture Past and Present are well-springs cf solid information and dependable interpretation. He is thoroughly at home in the social and political institution of the Middle Ages and is, therefore, better able than most popular historians to point out the causes of that stupendous collapse of a decayed world-order which we know as the French Revolution. To tell the story of the French Revolution in 120 octavo pages is a task which borders on the impossible; but Mr. Bax comes as near to achieving it as is humanly possible. When Finance Minister Calonne brought about the Convocations of the Notables out of which came the States-General and the abolition of the fuedal regime he rang up the curtains on the greatest social drama that the world has ever seen. The results of those activities that spread in widening circles all over Europe from 1789 to 1815 have descended to our day in a broadening stream of democratic doctrines which has abolished chattel slavery, narcissism and capitalism, given public education and opened vast possibilities to the ambitions and aspirations of the common man. Therefore, it is worth while to the men of today who partake of the fruits of the French Revolution to know something of its causes, its course and consequences. Many volumes have been written on this theme—from the coldly scientific analyses of Taine and Aulard, the sympathetic scholarship of Morse, Stephen and Lamartine, to the poetic servants of Michellet and the dithyrambics of Caryle. But the busy man who has scant time for either scholarship or poetics will prefer to read an he runs this brief, but dependable record by Mr. Bax. In it he will find nearly all that he needs to know whether of the personality of the chief actors like Sieyes, Marut, Dantem, Robespierre and Marie Antoinette, the Jacobs and the Gloriette, or of the principles for which they contended. The days of "the Terror," the wars waged first by all Europe against France and later by victorious France against all Europe; the shifting fortunes of the working class which did the necessary fighting and of the rising merchant class which menopaeised the fruits of the victory; the scarlet horror of the gallows which glared off the heads of royalty and finally, for both of other dom comes. It is the old story of prejudice over again. What is needed is more sanitizers, then the force of prejudice will not be an element entering into the law of unpuny and demand. The city of Toronto, Canada, has instituted another means for, compating Tuberculosis. The Preventoria, has come into existence. This is an institution for health conserving. It is an institution to prevent the developing of Tuberculosis. Thus far children are not indicated in indications point to the admittance of adults, when other, preventoria are established. This form of prevention of tuberculosis is a great step. The State of Michigan, Illinois, Rhode Island, Maryland and Massachusetts has adopted it and has established Preventoria. Many cases of tuberculosis and childhood, in the home of some tubercular adult. These children have been exposed to the germ of tuberculosis, and unless they are properly cared for, tuberculosis is bound to occur. These children have a low resistance, because of the tubercular germ in their system. They need special care, a proper diet and hygienic surroundings. They used to be taught how to care for and protect themselves, and thus crush an imminent tuberculosis. The preventoria does all this. Such children are sent to these preventoria and there, they receive this upbuilding care. I hope New York City will follow the good method of attacking the great white plague. More Sanitaria and the establishment of Preventoria are the immediate demands for this most prevalent disease. A Review by Hubert Harrison food, turned triumphantly against its own creators, and the "whiff of grape-shot" that started the Corsican on his career of conquest to end at St. Helena—these are all compressed into this story of the French Revolution. The work is well done, and the reader of this volume can get a real and vital grip on the events and their meaning.
