First Comments of British National Champion Since Arriving in America Given to the Public Through Columns of Leading Colored Paper Here. By HARRY F. V. EDWARDS It gives me, indeed, great pleasure to write this column, as it provides me with an opportunity on record my appreciation of the hearty welcome to me by the management and members of the journal and to thank them all—and in particular who sacrificed all his scanty time of leisure in me around and to make me feel at home. Here I am now in New York, and the often asked is: "Well, how do you like America after my arrival here I replied to this question very much." My questioner immediately turns his friend and said: "Bo-o-o-y, guess they're in England—two days here—thinks he's seen A woman a Westerner—I found later on It gives me, indeed, great pleasure to write these lines in this column, as it provides me with an opportunity to put on record my appreciation of the hearty welcome extended to me by the management and members of the staff of this journal and to thank them all—and in particular Roy Morse, who sacrificed all his scanty time of leisure in order to show me around and to make me feel at home. Here I am now in New York, and the question I get often asked is: "Well, how do you like America?" The day after my arrival here I replied to this question: "I like it very much." My questioner immediately turned around to his friend and said: "Bo-o-o-y, guess they're all alike from England—two days here—thinks he's seen America!" He was a Westerner—I found out later on. Since this incident I have become wiser and when anybody asks me now: "How do you like America?" I reply: "American women are beautiful." They all like to hear that and this at once tickles their laughing muscles. I found that this ovative but frank answer avoids many pitfalls. The best reply to the question: "How do you like America?" I have heard from a Scotchman who said: "Grand—every time I go take a restaurant I and 10 cents under my plate." Laten.

We both qualified But stop—I am going off on a tangent. I am not to fill this column with my impressions of the U. S.

Impressive funeral rites were held over the room of David Irwin Martin, director of the Martin-Smith Music School, in the chapel of St. Phillips P. E. Church, Sunday at 1 P.M. Long before that hour every available seat in the noted structure was taken. Hundreds of people, unable to get in, stood outside while the services were going on. The funeral procession was led by the band of the Monarch Lodge of Elks of which organization the deceased was a member. Immediately behind it were two automobiles filled with flowers. Rev. Hutchins C. Bishop, rector of St. Phillips, officiated at the services. Prof. Paul Bolen played the organ. At the time of his death, David Irwin Martin was 44 years of age. He was born in Ashville, N.C., but came to New York City to live when he was nothing but a lad. He was the first student to enter the Institute of Musical Art, and later studied under Prof. Theodorowits. Until 1913, when he was made head of the Music School Settlement for Colored People, Mr. Martin conducted a school at 257 West 124th street. A little later he and Miss Helen Smith, now Mrs. Nathaniel Dett, started the Martin Smith School of Music, with which organization he was connected at the time of his death. Early in June Mr. Martin repaired to the Berkshire Hills in the hope that he would recover his health, which had been falling for some time, but he became worse and returned to his residence at 189 West 18th street, where he died last Tuesday afternoon. Mr. Martin was a member of several well known organizations of the city, and the National Association of Negro Musicians. He leaves a wife and three children.

Solomon Price of 268 Bergen Street, Brooklyn, died early last Tuesday in the Jewish Hospital from a bullet wound in the chest, which he received during an attempted holdup the previous night in a garage at 180 South Portland Avenue, Brooklyn, where he was employed as a porter. Joseph Sullivan of 183 Vanderbilt Avenue, Anthony Brandish of 113 Waverly Avenue, John Malone of 106 Waverly Avenue and Joseph Walsh of 256 Adelphi Street, all Brooklyn, were arranged recently in the Adams Street Court, Brooklyn, in connection with the shooting, according to the police. A large touring car containing five men drove into the garage last week and one of the men stepped from the automobile and asked for gasoline. Philip Findholt of 1488 Bryant Avenue, the Bronx, served the man, and as he was about to turn away the man drew a gun and told him to put his hands up. Price, who was in a back room, came into the garage. The man commanded him to put up his hands, also, but Price said, "You're only fooled," and waved his right arm. As he did so the man fired a shot, the bullet entering Price's chest. The man then turned to the automobile and voiled to the driver to "stop on it!" The police of Bergen Street and Poplar Street stations, following a search in the neighborhood, located an automobile which tallied with the description of that used by the holdup men. The car was operated by Sullivan, who was placed under arrest. Sullivan was taken to the hospital, where it was sold Price identified him as the operator of the automobile which was used in the attempted holdup. CHILD BATHER DROWNED. (Freston News Service.)

Poising as undertakers' assistants and mourners just returning from a funeral, a squad of prohibition officers under Agent Reager raided a number of Harlem hooth joints on Sunday. The places raided are 2334 Fifth avenue; 600 Leeson avenue, and 2339 Seventh avenue. Those arrested are Frank King, James Walsh, Richard Groskoff and Joseph Gleeson. At each of the places the officers found no difficulty in purchasing liquor. The hootholders continue to ply their trade as actively as ever, with new places being opened every day. Liquor is openly sold to all corners in most of these joints, a good many of which, particularly on Leonor avenue, are former liquor saloons. The only attempt at disguise is the display of soft drinks in the show windows. In addition to the harm they are doing in poisoning the bodies of their fellow-men, the Harlem hootholders are responsible for the increase of lawlessness in the community. The doctets at Washington Heights Court show an ever-increasing number of cutting cases. In most of these cases the defendant was filled with the rife stuff sold in the saloons, furniture stores, drug stores, cigar stores, fruit stores and dress goods shops of Harlem. In hallways and staircases of tenement houses, particularly on Leonor avenue, drunken men may be seen at all hours of the day, molesting women and children. The murder at 6:00 Leonor avenue on Thursday night, not have occurred but for the hootholder that is sold in that and neighboring blocks. A reported of the Amsterdam News entering that building last Monday saw no less than eight offensive drunken men and women in the hallway and on the stairs. EXTRA!

Taxi Chauffeur Bares Robbery Seventh Avenue Shop Robbed of Goods Worth $3,500. Charged with breaking into the dress goods shop of Louis Singer, 2138 Seventh avenue, William Price, 2133 Madison avenue, Edward Hogan and James Harrison, 71 West 1238 street, were arraigned in the Washington Heights Court on Sunday and held without ball by Magistrate Earl Smith for a hearing on Wednesday. The thieves entered the shop through a hole made in the wall near the stairway. It is alleged that goods, valued at $5,000, were taken away in a taxi. The chauffeur, whose name is withheld, after helping the defendants to carry the goods to the car, became suspicious and reported the matter to the police as soon as he had taken them to their destination. When Detective Sergentants Kennner and Huben went to the premises at 71 West 1238 street, and entered a room, after breaking through the door, they found one of the defendants hiding under the bed, and two others on the fire escapes.

Charged with stealing $570 from his friend, James Sannadale, the West 145th street Mack Rivers, 207 West 142nd street, was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court on Friday and held in bail by Magistrate Earl Smith for a hearing on Wednesday. Rivers, who has been a friend of the Sannadale family for some time, is said to have visited the home on a hot night two weeks ago. Everybody left, including Rivers; but when the latter was outside he said that he had forgotten his coat and, it is said, went back for it, opening the door with a key he had. When Sannadale returned, it is said that he found the door open and the $570 missing. Rivers, he charged, knew of the money. Sannadale further declared that, after the bus, Rivers stayed away from the house, although he had been a frequent visitor up to then. The case was then placed in the hands of the Boulin Detective Agency, 2378 Seventh Avenue, who on investigation, it is said, discovered that Rivers had never given his right address at his place of employment; that he had bought new clothing for his nephew, J. Rivers, and had also given him $400 to keep for him. Three hundred and twenty-five dollars of this money and the new clothing, consisting of a new suit and new shoes, were turned over by the nephew to the Boulin Detective Agency. When arraigned, Rivers refused to plead. Magistrate Smith ordered an investigation of his record.

The Dyer Anti- Lynching bill was passed by a vote of 230 to 119 in the last House of Representatives, but was held up in the Senate by & filibuster conducted by Southern Democrats.

A. is now finest galaxy of track and field in action in New York at the Yankee Stadium next Saturday are coming from California, Nessee Louisiana, Mississippi Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New York, and the appearance English spinner, and Carl Chin in the meet will give it an int The Wilco A. A. is now definitely assured of having the finest galaxy of track and field stars that has ever been seen in action in New York at their Pre-Olympic games in the Yankee Stadium next Saturday afternoon (Sept. 8). They are coming from California, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Tennessee Louisiana, Mississippi, Maryland, Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Jersey, and New York, and the appearance of Harry E. A. Edwards, the English spinner, and Carl Christirson, the Swedish hurdler, in the meet will give it an international flavor. The majority of the athletes who are entered have never been seen in competition in New York, which shows how rapidly the new stars are coming to the front in track and field to fill the shoes of the men who have been in the athletic limelight in recent years. During the past week two Californiaians forwarded their signed entry blanks, Edwards arrived from England; Earl Johnston, national five mile champion, who hails from Pittsburgh, and C. S. Cochrane, the Mississippi A. & M. College star quarteriller, who has won the national collegiate 440 yard championship for the past two years, filed their entries and Cochrane notified the Wilco A. A. games committee that he would not only cover the 90 meter course and under the special course of training to himself for the 800 meter race as well. The entries from the far west, the south, Pittsburgh and England rounds out one of the best balanced cards ever presented to New York track fans. There will be 15 events on the program and not more than 12 entries have been accepted in any event, assuring small but high-class fields and clean racing. It would be difficult to single out any one event and point to it as the feature. Every event will be a "special". All events except one will be at Olympic distances, and the winners are almost certain to represent the United States in the Olympic games at Paris next year. The sprinting events are sure to produce better competition than was seen in the national championship sprints, as three stars who will run in these events were unable to make the trip to Chicago for the nationals. The field in the 100 meter race will be made up of the following sprinters: Harry P. V. Edwards, England, champion sprinter of Great Britain; Bob McAllister, American 100 yard champion last year; Loren Murchison, national 60 and 300 yard champion and record holder; Louis Clark, Baltimore, national collegiate champion and record holder; Eurone Goodwillie, Chicago's sensational schoolboy sprinter, Manville Lockhich. Niagara 100 and 220 yard champion: Charles Brookins, University of Iowa, with a record of 9-45 seconds for the hundred; Dean, of West Point, another nine-four" man: Frank Conway, Penn State College; George Hill, University of Pennsylvania, and Jose M. Carol, Meadowbrook Club. Should Edwards, McAllister, Murchison, Clark and Goodwillie qualify for the final in this race, one of the most attiring sprint races ever run around New York will be offended. The best of the sprinters entered in the hundred will also compete in the 200 meter race, but in addition such stars as Allan Wooding, the Olympic champion and Eric Wilson, of the University of Iowa, will be seen in action in this race. Jake Driscoll, of Boston, and C. S. Cochrane, of the Mississippi A. E. M. College, are expected to set the pace in the 400 meter race, but they may be handed a surprise by Harry P. V. Edwards, the Englishman, who won the 100, 220 and 400 race all in one occasion in the British championships last year. Edwards runs with a long sweeping stride and has a record of 49 seconds for the quarter, in addition to his records of 10 seconds for the hundred and 22 seconds for the 220. If Ray Watson, the great middle distance runner of the Illinois A. C., steeds to run in the 800 meter race instead of the "record Mile" or in both, Allan Helfrich, C. S. Cochrane, George Marsters and the other half milers entered will be forced to so right down to the record to win. The record mile was put on the program at the request of Jole Ray, who has promised to make the supreme effort to break the record on this occasion. He claims that he will run the mile in 4.10, thus wining out the recently established one mile record credited to Paavo Nurmi, of Finland. The men who have been selected to race against Ray are Ray Watson Ray Buker, E. Kroch, Jimmy Connally and Walter Maunz. The stars entered in some of the other events on the program area. 5,000 meters run—Karl Johnston Pittsburgh: John Romie Philadelphia: Russell Powe. Cincinnati: James Hennessy Boston: A. R.

Writes First Impressions English Sprint Champ (Continued from Page 1.) again a third place behind Woodring and Paddock. Since these friendly Antwerp "battles" "Murch" and myself have been very active in running shoes. "Murch" on the American Continent and myself in Europe. The first open British championship titles I won in July, 1920, when I ran the 100 yards in 10 seconds and the 220 yards in 21 3-5 seconds, defeating in the shorter distance W. A. Hill (A. A. U. champion 1919); Oosterlaan (the South African champion), and Vie d'Arcy (the British Olympic sprinter), and in the 220 yards Brown (Princeton University), who ran at 21 4-5 seconds, and W. A. Hill. In 1921 I retained the two titles, running 100 yards in 10 1-5 seconds and the 220 yards in 22 seconds, beating Abrahams (Cambridge University), and W. A. Hill (A. A. U. champion 1929), with my nearest opponent. At the end of the day, I was able to relay in which I was obliged—in order to win—to gallop the "quarter" in 48 4-5 seconds. Encouraged by my showing in the 1921 championships I entered all three short distances in the 1923 championships, which were graced by the presence of His Majesty King George. During the four weeks preceding this meet I had a series of misfortunes. On June 5, 1922—four weeks before the championships, I strained my thigh muscle which meant rest and only easy, work and then a week before the championships when I thought my legs may be able to stand the strain of a sprint I fell head over heels down a flight of stairs—result: A swollen left ankle. Frequent applications of finim and ice water worked wonders, and with little training and plenty optimism I went through the races I had entered for and I managed to secure all three times: 100 yards in 10 seconds, the 220 yards in 22 seconds, and the 440 yards in 2.5 seconds, beating in the last named distance G. Butler, of Cambridge University, second in the 400 meters at the Olympic Games behind B. Rudd. I also took part in the relay in which my team finished second. Besides the British championships—which are open to the world, I ran in many other meets in London, Brighton, Leeds, Cambridge, High Wycombe, Liverpool, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Paris, defeating all the British, French, Belgian, Swiss, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish and Italian crests, and now I am looking forward with confidence to my encounter with the "fawns" of the United States Jack Johnson's doom was settled from the first day he made himself too much at home in the company of the ladies of the gate face race, and when, as it has been reported, he had the nerve to drive up and down Broadway in his high-powered cars with them, it was added fuel to the fire of the white man's hate and now Jack is truly "burnt up." If Jack Johnson did not know it before we are willing to wager that today he is fully aware of the fact that even the white man with whom he associated hated him for his predilection for his women and they only stuck because they hope to use him to make money. That the colored athlete is making his presence felt in track and field athletics not only in this country but abroad as well, will be very clearly brought to mind next Saturday afternoon (Sept. 8) when the Wilco Athletic Association stages the Pre-Olympic games at the Yankee stadium. Entry to the events being contested at these games is by invitation only, and none except the foremost stars of this country and Europe were invited. In the regular course of events invitations were extended to seven Negro athletes who because of their achievements on track and field are ranked as leaders in their particular specialties. These seven athletes have accepted the invitation and will be on hand to prove to the sport loving public that the confidence of the officials of the Wilco A. A, in their athletic ability was not misplaced. The athletes referred to are: De Hart Hubbard, of the University of Michigan, present national and collegiate champion in the running broad and hop, step and jump; Ned Gourdin, formerly of Harvard, and present holder of the world's record of 25 feet 3 inches in the running broad jump; Harry P. V. Edwards, of London, England, champion of Great Britain in the 100, 220 and 440 yards, all of which he won in one afternoon, a truly remarkable series of performances; R. Earl Johnston, of Pittsburgh, present national five-mile champion, and former national ten-mile and cross-country champion; Arthur Washington, of Chicago, who a fortnight ago won the Central A. A. U. 100-yard championship in 94-8 seconds; Fred West, the Washington and Jefferson University football and track star, who displayed his versatility at the Pennsylvania relay carnival last spring by winning the College Pentathlon championship, a five-event all-around test, and the following day helped his relay team break a relay record; and Dewey Rodgers, the former University of Pennsylvania quarter miler who contributed his shares to the world's record breaking performance returned by the U. of P. four for the one-mile relay, a record which stands as the world's best, but is expected to be broken at the Wilcox games on Saturday, when an All-East combination consisting of Jake Driecoll, of Boston; Allan Woodring, of Syracuse, the Olympic 200 meter champion; Allan Helffrich, the intercollegiate and national half-mile champion; and J. Coard Taylor, formerly of Princeton, and runner-up to Woodring in the intercollegiate quarter mile championship this year, meet the University of Iowa quartet, which will represent the West. One of the finest exhibitions of broad jumping ever witnessed in this country or in the world for that matter, is looked for when Hubbard and Gourdin contest for premier honors in the running broad jump at this meet. Gourdin was the first athlete who ever cleared 25 feet in the running broad jump, and before he accomplished the feat, athletic experts freely admitted that the world's record at that time, credited to O'Connor of Ireland, of 24 feet 11 inches, would never be broken. Gourdin, however, accomplished what was thought to be impossible, and less than two years later Hubbard comes along and jumps over 25 feet on two different occasions in competition, and has bettered Gourdin's world's record in practice. This shows what a remarkable jumper Hubbard is, and the contest between these two great colored men will be worth going miles to see. Edwards has come to this country with a remarkable record, and he feels that he is in condition to uphold this record. He run third to Paddock and Kirkay, the two American sprinters, in the Olympic 100 meter championship at Antwerp three years ago, and third to Woodring and Paddock in the 200 meter race. These two performances were turned in by Edwards despite the fact that he was suffering from a strained tenden at the time. He has fully recovered from the leg trouble that has handicapped him in many of his important races overseas, and is now ready to tackle the best we can produce in this country. Edwards will not only run in the 100 meter race, but will be a strong contender for premier honors in the 200 and 400 meter events, provided the order of events are so arranged as to permit him to race in all three events. Earl Johnston's fame as a distance runner has spread over the length and breadth of this country. He was America's second best distance runner at the Olympic games at Antwerp, but had the misfortune to be seized with a attitok in his side during the 10,000 meter race, and had to drop out. However, when he returned to the United States, he proved his worth by winning the national five and ten mile and cross country championships. He was unable to leave his business to train and race as often as was necessary last fall and winter, and therefore was not seen in many races around New York, but he has been training hard this year, and is in hopes of showing a performance at the Wille games that will warrant the American Olympic Committees considering him for a place on the 1984 Olympic team. THE WORLD OF SPORT Wilbur Cohen Makes Splendid Showing Against Darcy at the Commonwealth Wilbur Cohen Makes Splendid Showing Against Darcy at the Commonwealth "Battling Siki" Among Fans Witnessing Victories of Buddy Saunders and Jack McVey in Series of Bouts at Big Harlem Club Saturday. Quite a large crowd turned out to the regular weekly Saturday night boxing show at the Commonwealth Sporting Club last week and were regaled with a series of bouts superior to those put on at the Polo Grounds the night previous, when thousands of dumb-bells paid good money to see the ham exhibitions, topped by Messrs. Greb and Wilson, in which the so-called middleweight championship was transferred from Wilson to Greb at the end of their little fistic engagement which went the limit. There were no knockouts at the Commonwealth last Saturday night, but from the first bout to the last the fighters performed satisfactorily, with the possible exception of the Saunders-Pfeiffer bout, which lacked the finer points of the art that bring thousands of the "tired business men" a surgease of their thinking duties devoting to coralling the ever elusive dollar during the regular working hours. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 8, 1923 The Passing of John Arthur Johnson Newspaper reports carrying a ring of authenticity inform the world at large that John Arthur Johnson, former world's heavyweight champion, has been barred from appearing in New Jersey on September 10th against Billy Miske. This spells the passing of Johnson from the prize ring as he has been barred in almost all the other places where boxing is staged in the United States. The question will naturally arise in many minds as to the guilt of Johnson when he was sent to Fort Leavenworth to serve his time. Many feel that he was railroaded to jail, but other events cropping up in the life of Johnson have left him with hardly any sympathy even among his own people. One cannot for all time fly into the face of recognized conventions and hope to "get away with it." Whether right or wrong, it is a known fact that white America will never look with favor on black America mixing up with white women. They have created laws in certain sections of the country to prevent intermarriage between the races. Every white man constitutes himself a protector of his women no matter how low in the scheme of things she might happen to be and one in Johnson's position seeking favors at the hands of white men will never receive any consideration. The best bout of the evening was that between Willie Darcy and Wilbur Cohen, the latter the little colored boy who has been making good both in his amateur and professional fights. Darcy is the little white boy who has been touted for the past year as one of the beat in the game, and a boy for whom the powers that he in boxing have been preparing and predicting great things. All his other encapades would have been forgiven and forgotten. Had he confined the burning up of gas on Broadway is company of the beautiful "high yallara," "smooth blackie" and "K. O. Browns" of his own race, mayhap even to this day he would be basking in the sunshine and glory of the world's heavyweight championship. But now even Harry Wills, a man of his own color, has drawn the line on him and he is no more enjoying the plaudits of those following the game and for all time, apparently, he will be "persona non grata" in the realms of flatiana. Cohen showed Darcy up throughout the fight. Truth to tell, the little colored boy showed championship form against Darcy who time after time, when he found that he was up against a superior ring man all around, tried to make it appear as if he was being fouled. The referee did not pay him the money his claims, and the colored fighter was for him it was all he could do or go through with the fight in a manner that would not drive away his entire following. Colored Amateur Athletes Continue to Make Good In the early rounds he gave promise of making it warm for Cohen in infighting, but the colored boy changed his style repeatedly to meet everything the white boy had, and at the conclusion he was given the decision, having won by the proverbial mile. He made his victory so impressive there was not the least doubt of who won when the fight came to a close.

The clash between Jack McVey and Sailor Darden brought together a very clever fighter in the person of McVey and a hard going, tough sailorman in the person of Darden. McVey had to extend himself to win from Darden, as the sailor kept after him throughout the fight. McVey's showing was of such it impressed the fans who know the ability of Darden. This McVey boy, as stated before in these columns, is one of the best of color in the game today, and the decision he received over Darden was well earned, although he was warned repeatedly for using a blow to the spine of Darden instead of confining it to the kidneys. It was the opinion of many that both the judges and the referee were superior to the match of the more experienced sailors who captured a box in company with his manager and other friends. The Senegalese when introduced to the writer responded in a flow of French that left us hanging on the ropes. Another spectator of note in the athletic world was Harry Edwards, Great Britain's seasonal spinner, who is here to run in the pre-Olympic games, and who saw his first series of boxing bouts as the guest of the Amsterdam News sporting editor.

Frank H. Wilson, who will be remembered as the youngster who created a mild sensation at the New Lincoln Theatre some years ago when unheralded he produced a little race playlet entitled "Confidence" that met with as warm a reception at Mrs. Downs' little playhouse as anything along dramatic lines that had preceded it. Under the guidance of Billie Burke Mrs. Downs had for some time previous maintained a dramatic stock company at her theatre which drew thousands to the place. This was the first stone in the foundation that made it possible for the Quality Amusement Corporation to put on at the Lafayette Theatre two-hour plays, and for a long time Harlem supported the venture. Eddie Hunter Still Being Hailed as Successor to the Late Bert Williams "How Come?" Show Going Over Big Wherever Shown and From Present Indications the Production Will Enjoy Great Success on the Road. Reports coming in from all over indicate that Eddie Hunter is really on the road to a big success at the head of his show entitled "How Come?" From the time the production left New York it has been enjoying immense popularity and white people are crowding the theatres in all the cities where Hunter and the others have cutting up in the "Chickn Trust Corporation of Mobile, Ala." Like Broadway received Hunter, so have the critics in the towns where the show has appeared. They still continue to hail the young comedian as the logical successor of the late Bert Williams, and the Scranton Times, before "How Come?" left for Buffalo, where it is playing a week stand commencing Sept. 3 at the Shubert Theatre, had the following to say: Wilson's advent at a time when the colored journals were calling for race plays was rewarded with a wonderful response and he produced "Race Pride." "Friendship." "Colored Americans." "Back Home Again." "A Train North" and numerous other comedy and dramatic playlets of Nagro life. Wilson will come to the Lafayette Theatre next week supporting Richard B. Harrison, eminent actor and dramatic reader. In writing "Pa William's Gall" Wilson feels that he has made one of his best efforts, as the show will be a two-hour production, and his appearance in the cast should do a great deal towards the success of the offering. Wilson will also be remembered for his portrayal of the character of James Thomas in Butler Davenport's "Justice" a few years ago. Speaking of his work the other day Mr. Wilson said: "I have been questioned time and again for the reason actuating me in confining my writings to Negro plays and playlets only when I could be financially benefited if I would write my plays and playlets with both races in mind—plays that could be used by either reco." "I thank my friends for their kindly solicitations and kindly advice and interest in me. I shall write for one race, and that race my own. I sincerely feel that when the great American play is written it will come from the heart of my own people. who are a gold mine of comedy or serious drama to any one who will take the time to look into it. It has always been my ambition to write something big, yet with a dignity and simplicity that would reach the great masses of the people. I feel that I have it in this play. "Pa William's Gal."

WILSON Author of "Pa William's Gall" The Lafayette Theatre Next Week. Author of "Pa William's Gall" at The Lafayette Theatre Next Week. We understand that "Pa William's Gall" has nothing sensational or spectacular about it, but just a simple little story from life—a play without preachment or propaganda, that should carry a strong appeal to our people, whose support we crave in behalf of one of the most worthy young men of color seeking name and fame on the stage today. Others appearing in the play will be Marie Young, Dolores Haskins, Rosalie McClendon, Walter Smith, Morris McKenny and H. Lawrence Freeman and his folksong singers.

After that scene it only required the sight of Hunter to bring on gales of merriment. Like the other principals and the chorus, Hunter gives his best in his gingeriest style.

Marvelous dancing by Johnny Nit was the next big feature of the work of Hunter and he was kept moving his feet until near collapse.

Kast Tramont Avenue near 190th Street, on Sunday next, when the Baltimore Black Sox, appear for the second time this year against the Lincoln Giants in the usual double header. These two teams are now tied in the series and two hard fought baseball contests are looked forward to for Sunday next. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 6, 1928 About Things Theatrical Speaking of the Great American Drama In the first column of this page appearing today is an account of the show to be offered at the Lafayette Theatre with an opinion on his work expressed by the author. Somehow or other we feel that Mr. Wilson is making a mistake in infirming his writings to one race if he hopes to reach the heights for which he is aiming in trying to produce "the great American drama." This, to our way of thinking, is where the white man has been making his mistake and finding it impossible to get the attention of the literary and artistic world as a producer along dramatic lines of something which can be looked upon as great and win the applause at least of the French "Academie." The Negro is so closely interwoven in the life of the American white man we fear that he will have to reach back to that foundation of tragedy surrounding our race in this country which, when given its true expression in truth upon the stage, will attract the attention of the world. The same thing should hold good in the case of our friend Frank H. He has a better foundation for bringing forth the great drama than the plodding white writer, for he, like most intelligent colored man, knows the white man better than the white man knows the race and with our wealth of material along the sufferings endured by our ancestors from the days when they were torn from their African home to the present generation, he has but to stick to the truth and when the spotlight is thrown upon what he has to offer it will be something to stir the emotions of all peoples. For the nonce he has but to think as AN AMERICAN and not simply as a colored man. All that he need do would be to be fair, something so far impossible for the white brother, and when he will have drawn his white and colored characters enacting the drama of the color line in America he will find that only then will he be on the road to what all true dramatists have been aiming at and that is the drama which the world is going to accept as "the great American drama." Speaking of a race drama forces us to the realization that a great cal of doubt exists as to the support to be expected from the colored people as a whole. We are still in that stage where we are too prone to see the lighter things of life and until that day when we become a little more serious we are not going to make the progress along dramatic lines that other peoples have made. Those were very commendable efforts made by the colored people in the drama at the Lafayette Theatre years ago, but our support soon waned and we turned to that form of entertainment which will be associated with the Negro for a long time to come and that is musical comedy. It was asking too much of us to produce over night dramas written by our own people when they had never had the opportunity to make such attempts in the past, and Mr. Levy and his associates were doing their best to keep the theatre open with what they had to offer by white men until such time as we could have produced plays by our own writers. Many brilliant writers among us have in the past oiled that it is a blessing that we can so readily see the comic side of life, as we could not otherwise have gone as far as we have, but in this day and time it is a question. Seeing the lighter side of life has made it possible for bootleggers and others to turn a residential district into a red light district almost over night, to say nothing of many other ills which could be enumerated as brought about through refusing to be serious at times. Other races have used the stage to give forth the expressions of their sufferings but we seem to be satisfied to support comedy, good, bad and indifferent. We would like to see "Pa William's Gal" as the forerunner of some good dramatic offerings. Local Publication Again Gives Us an Earful Anent Big Doings in Showdom Variety Gives a Review of New Show of Miller and Lyle, Also Some Other Information and a Few Words on the Previous Success 'Shuffle Along.' Even the local publications in Washington, D. C., did not give a comprehensive review of the new show of Miller and Lyle entitled "Running Wild" and our people here in New York have been forced to wait until now to get something that will give us an idea of what to expect in this new production, which left town some weeks ago with the former stars of "Shuffle Along" again striking out to continue the recognition won in the previously successful offering now on the road with Sissle and Blake at its head. "Variety," the big white publication, which covers more thoroughly the theatrical field in a high-class manner than any of the others, is responsible for the subjoined articles appearing below. This paper also gives out some information anent "Shuffle Along" that will be read with a great deal of interest by readers of this paper. In speaking of the new vehicle it is the opinion of "Variety" that it will be a huge success, and this bit of information will be welcome to the well-wishers of both Messrs. Miller and Lyle, who are trying to maintain a certain standard in colored show business that will meet with the approval of the best thinking people of the race. The article follows: COLORED SHOW MYSTERY No Confirmation on 'Running Wild' Ownership. Who owns the colored show "Running Wild" with Miller and Lyle, two colored comedians who scored so heavily in "Shuffle Along" last season. Stories coming through from New York following the court action to stop the use of the title "Shuffle Along" give George White as the present owner. White was here the biggest part of last week whipping the show into shape. His name appears on the billing as presenting the show, all the daffies carrying his name in heavier type than that of the production. At the theatre, however, the program does not carry his name.

Clarence Gray, last season with Rodolph Valentine, was the informant, adding that he, Gray, and Harry Bestry, a New York agent, owned the show outright. SHUFFLE ALONG, INC. Court Demig Appointment of Receiver. Internal dissension within the ranks of the stockholders of Shuffle Along, Inc., is presenting new oral angles. Practically every holding faction is involved. It started with Milton Godorfer petitioning New York Supreme Court Justice Black, for the appointment of a receiver to take hold of Shuffle Along, Inc. This plea was denied by the court this week. Godorfer's complaint was that the minority stockholders are running the corporation extravagantly, and that the corporation affairs were not being conducted according to Hoyle in that no regular elections have been held, etc. Goodorfer controls six and half shares of of 40, but is reported having acquired Cort's interest which would give him a total of 15 shares. Miller and Lyle, who have 10 shares of the corporation, are now being negotiated with for the purchase of their interest. The colored comedians have cast their lot with George White's new "Running Wild" colored show, and the Shuffle Along Corp., is anxious to buy out their stock. Shuffle Along, Inc., originally was granted an injunction restraining Miller and Lyle and George White from using the "Shuffle Along" title in connection with their show. It has developed that folder of "Running Wild" mention that Miller and Lyle were formerly of "Shuffle Along." A motion for contempt of court may ensue, according to Gross & April, the Shuffle corporation's counsel.

Business dropped off Saturday night, as expected for most of the colored population is employed then. The second week started with Sunday's performance, after trouble was threatened through a dispute over salaries. George White had advised Miller and Lyle a sure loss would be sustained at the admission scale. The colored comedians replied they did not want salary the first week, and that the company would also agree to passing the initial salary date. Saturday, however, the company advised Clarence Gray, the company's manager, it was all news to them and demanded their pay envelopes. Gray delegated White and the latter replied the show would close if the company insisted on the salaries. The players thereon told the manager to go ahead and close. Miller and Lyle waived salary. $2,000 weekly, the balance of the company receiving part salaries from the money remaining after expenses were paid. "Running Wild" is geared up expensively for a colored show. In addition to the salary of Miller and Lvie a 15-piece hand is costing $1,200. There were 82 people carried when the show arrived here.

However, a new cabarret throw open its doors to the public not very long ago and, from the start, it met with a warm welcome at the hands of those seeking an evening's entertainment in an atmosphere superior to what we have been accustomed. We have in mind the place operated by "Broadway Jones," a half-fellow-well-met and happy-go-lucky musician and entertainer, who has been before the white public for a number of years, and whose success prompted him to cater to an even larger clientele along the same lines. The "Rendezvous" opened in an auspicious manner and, although the warm months threatened its existence at one time, the hard period was successfully weathered, and now "Broadway" is prepared to give this section of New York the very best in high-class entertainment and service.

Box 1111, Plainfield, NJ When the news of the death of David J Martin was flashed through Mariam last Tuesday, many wore the regurgitated voice by a host of friends who knew the accomplished musician and the wonderful work he was doing at the head of the Martin-Smith Music School. The passing of a man like Mr. Martin at this time leaves a void that will be hard to fill, for after years of unsuccessful effort and personal sacrifice, he had succeeded in laying the foundation of a great work in the school. Under his able hand he had guided scores of youngsters in music, and his children will in time keep fresh the memory of a man who has handed down to them the genius which asserted itself in his work. To the sorrowing wife will go out the deepest sympathy of those who knew the splendid man taken from our midst. It is a loss to the community which only those who can appreciate the worth of such as David I. Martin will understand. Surrounded by a most wonderful helpmate and his children, his home life was of such thinking men and women of the race can feel very proud, for in it we found that happiness and content which helped to give him inspiration, the foundation of his fire-side being built on high moral worth and character. The community to which he gave so much, both as a musician and a man, should see to it that support be given the school to keep alive the things David I. Martin held dear in his life's work. He was buried from St. Philip's Church on Sunday. "RUNNING WILD" (Continued from Page 5.) pression here that the Howard Theatre (devoted exclusively to colored shows), has been selling out nighly. This show was booked for another week. Business is such that the houses are three-quarters white which is unusual for Washington. Miller and Lee firmly established themselves last season in "Shuffle Along" and their work in this piece is par excellent. Both possess an unctuous method of getting comedy across. Miller and Lyle furnished the book and there is an unlimited amount of comedy. George White is reported as having the show and his name appeared in the newspapers as presenting it, but at the theatre Clarence Gray, the company's manager, stated White merely put the show in shape, and it was the property of Harry Bestry, a New York agent, and himself. White is in Washington with the show. There is one colored boy, Tommy Woods, who does a White style of dance. Other than Miller and Lyle the biggest feature of the show is the chorus. In the last act they got a hand when coming on for a number and from the white portion of the house, too. They harmonised perfectly. This bunch of girls is going to undoubtedly make a big impression when the show gets set in New York. Of the many musical numbers, which are the work of James Johnson while the lyrics are by Cecil Mack, there isn't one that but will register. The "love" number is the theme song, and will undoubtedly be one of the big sellers of the coming season. Others that should bring big returns are "Open Your Heart." sung by Ravella Hughes and George Stephens; "Gingerbrown" with Miss Hall and Bob Lee doing a strutting bit that was one of the best of this sort of thing that this reviewer has seen and "Charston." sung by Elizabeth Welsh. There is but one complaint with the show. The one opportunity to show the real Negro and his generally accepted environment is allotted but a few moments. More should have been done with this bit, and possibly will before the show is finally shaped up. It is a levee scene and presents many opportunities that were only partially realized. One bit in it, a recitative ghost number by Charles Olden, was exceptionally well done. The book has a rather thin thread of a story, but sufficient for the purposes telling of the wanderings of the two shirtless comedians (Miller and Lyle), and their efforts to abstract a living with the smallest amount of effort possible. It is divided into two acts with five scenes each. The production is adequate, although one or two of the sets might be termed a little overdone. The final closing bit of the show gives White a chance to ring in the picture stunt, but which couldn't be distinguished from the last row of the house. The finale of the first act is a wonder, and brought numerous calls. Will Marion Cook handled an augmented colored orchestra splendidly getting some good music out of ordinary musicians.

Mrs. Langer says she was deceived by promises of her husband, an orthodox Jew, that his family would not object to her because she was a Baptist and that, after they were married, Langer never took her to the home of his parents and other relatives. The marriage was performed by the Rev. W. P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. P. Olivet Baptist Church. After they were married two weeks, Mrs. Langer says she asked her husband to take her to meet his family several times, but he refused, saying his family would not recognize a Christian and would never receive her into an orthodox Jewish household. Shortly thereafter, she declares, they separated, and have not lived together since. Langer has not filed an answer to the complaint. Nothing in the complaint discloses whether the Langer family objected to his marriage because of the color question. ability as the youngest swimmer. Miss Hattie L.

G. M. Oliver Returns From Trip Popular Pastor Greeted by Large Audience Sunday Morning. An enthusiastic and attentive audience came out to welcome Dr. and Mrs. Oliver on their return from their vacation. Sunday morning, Dr. Oliver was in splendid mental and physical condition and present with inspiring and on-lining lesson "Church Membership." His text is found in Acts 2:42. The lesson cleaned from this subject as discussed by the speaker would be that in order to do the most good and to get the best returns from our deeds it is essential that we line ourselves up with the Church of God and carry ourselves so that the world will know our class. And that in order for the work to go on, we must support our Church. Dr. Oliver pointed out the loyalty due the Church from each member, your parishioners joined them selves to become members, and then to assist in carrying out the plans laid down for the membership. Holy Communion services were observed at 3 o'clock. Rev. Q. Jackson, one of Zion's oldest preachers, delivered the sermon. His speeches from the Hebrews 10:12 O'Keeffe, O'Keeffe, O'Keeffe again occupied his pulpit. His subject "The Happy Righteous Man" was based on the text sound in last Psalm, 3rd verse. Dr. Oliver based his sermon on three outlines. (1) His Character (2) His Conduct. (3) His Condition. The revival of the religious spirit of the membership is extremely pictureable in the Class Meetings and Prayer Services. These two mediums are doing great work in building up the Church membership. All organizations are doing—working earnestly towards the Holy which is now in progress. The captains are working in conjunction with the church being made to surpass any amount ever raised. Both the pastor and his wife enjoyed their vacation, and they have come back ready to go right to work. There is much to be accomplished this year at Rush and Dr. Oliver is the best men to handle the job. The renovation of the gymnasium and the center, gymnasium etc, are among the most important plans for the year. Come and worship with people who mean the community great good. MOTHER ZION CHURCH Sunday, September 2, marked the beginning of the fall season. It is the time when those who have sought relief from the intense heat of the summer by resorting to the seashore and the mountain peaks, begin to return to the homes and the places where they are employed. The shrub feels the effect of these seasons. Although the attendance is exceeded during the summer, at the opening of the fall season it again witnesses the influx of regular attendance upon the services of worship, and enjoys the opportunity of inspiring the hearts of men and women in the noble work of moral intellectual and spiritual, as well as the material betterment of the people of the community. At Mother Zion Church, we not only had the return to the city of many who had been away for the summer, and also the return, in the winter, to the vacation. There was the usual large number of worshippers. Dr. Brown demonstrated that relief for a week or two from a strenuous duty was a boon and a blessing combined. He took his text from John C. 3:9, speaking on "The Dignity of Labor," and said in part that: "The Church in all its branches has a special duty and mission to the tellers in these days, and nothing should divert the church from encountering to meet that duty and to discharge that mission. The Church must not forget for an instant that its Founder was "the carpenter's son," and that His heart was quick with sympathy for all who labored and who will be also right in its relation to any and all people when it follows with careful and intelligent consciousness the clear example of Jesus Christ. "Our present task is to take care of the migrant and to help him take care of himself. He needs sympathy and direction. Some of his coming, but his coming has gone much in the north. It has given impasus to our business. The southern Negro has made a larger place in the north for the colored leader, lawyer, teacher, etc. He is fighting to be able to attend churches. He is causing many people to buy homes. His coming means more political power and recognition. His coming also means more prejudice and more social conflicts. Like the emigrant, he is to be absorbed in our social and religious life." The Sunday School convened at 1 o'clock. We were delighted to have had with us Dr. J. T. Williams of Charlotte, N. C. who was at one time United States Council to Sierra Leona, West Coast of Africa, in which department or eight years. Dr. Williams made in inspiring address. The Sunday school collection amounted to $321. 18 M. P. M. Dr. Brown prescheduled an annual sermon to the Robbena Chapter. No. 16. Improved Benoist Protective Order of Missouri. See of New York. The annual monthly meeting of the Brotherhood will be held Thursday evening, September 6, at the Brotherhood House.

The services in the Church and tent were attended by record congregations throughout the entire day. Dr. John W. Robinson was the speaker at the morning service in the Church and thrilled his hearers during his eloquent and forceful discourse. Text: St. Matthew, 7th chapter and 12th verse. Theme: "The God Rule. At the morning service which was held in the tent at 187th and 129th Sts. St. Nicholas and Edgecombe Aves. Dr. Robinson preached an able sermon to the E. Belle Johnson Circle. The ladies of the Circle presented an inspiring appearance all day, entered into the tent, all dressed up, arrived by the President. Mrs. E. Belle Johnson Pitcafn. Rev. R. A. Bolden, associate pastor, preached a powerful sermon in the tent at the morning service. At 8 o'clock, Bishop Luther B. Wilson was the occupant of the pulpit in the tent and delivered a sermon which was listened to with rapt attention. The day was particularly significant because it was the last day of the tent services. Dr. Robinson and the members of the Church are very enthusiastic over the wonderful success that has crowned their efforts during the nine weeks of the tent meeting. During the day, the leaders in charge of the "yard slips" turned in $1,552.99. The total receipts during the day including the returns from the slips and subscriptions to the Building Fund amounted to $2,025.58. The total amount raised for the Building Fund for the erection of the Church during the final months of the tent services just ended was $15,029.98. The pastor and members feel justified in being jubilant over their splendid success, especially as $10,900 was their objective at the beginning of the services. The Sunday School was well attained. Great credit is due the various Church organizations which served refreshments every evening during the tent services, thereby contributing very materially towards the general financial results. The pastor, Dr. Robinson, and the officers and members of St. Mark's extend heartfelt thanks and profound gratitude to the friends of the Church, including the eleven men who have spoken at the meetings and their choirs and members who accompanied them, not only for their presence, but also for their financial contributions. BETHANY BAPTIST CHURCH. The members of the Bethany Church were very much pleased at the return of their pastor, Dr. L. Varnum from his vacation and welcomed him at both services. The choir rendered splendid music during the day. At the morning service, Louis A. Cabbell (baritone) sang RAF's "Open the Gates of the Temple" and in the evening, Robert Jones, the choir sang Ode to God with W. With the choir, Mr. and Mrs. Carroll, of Phila, Pa., guests of Mrs. Alice Jones. President of the Missionary Circle, were visitors during the day and expressed delight with the services. Mrs. M. E. Coleman's meetings will be discontinued after September 4th, 1923 until another notice, 24-41 Seventh Avenue, Apt. No. 1, Phone Audubon 4433.—Advert. ASHLAND PLACE Y'NOTES.

The Supreme Lodge, Knights of Pythias, brought, late 18th Bennial Session to a close Thursday, Aug. 20th. Representatives from all states answered roll call as well as Supreme Lodge officers. The session opened Sunday evening, August 26th, with services in their own Supreme Temple. About 600 people and Knights were present, Spencer W.

Monday morning, Mayor John Curley, of Boston, welcomed the delegates on behalf of the city administration and the people of Boston to a street demonstration was witnessed by thousands along the line of march. Monday evening, Ruggers Hall, which is in the Pythian Temple, was packed and jammed by 2000 people, to greet the officers of the city. A large number of social activities. Major-General W.

Victoria Fringers, Los Angeles, Calif. Fraternal News Paul H. Bray, of Yonkers, has ever been a champion of outraged and outlawed architecture. The Pythian New York State. He has our highest praise for having obtained, recently, an injunction restraining the Grand Lodge, K. of P., from enforcing an assessment of $10 levied upon every member of the Order in this State for the purpose of erecting a Pythian Temple. Members of the Order joined it to assist in referring theICK and dissuade and tobury the dead; and not to build temples. Perhaps nowhere in America is there a greater need for suitable Negro fraternal buildings than in the City of New York. Therefore, those who are endeavoring to raise funds for Masonic. Oddfellow, and Pythian buildings are engaged in a laudable pursuit, and every fraternal man or woman of the Black goddid ought to purchase at least one share in a fraternal building. But no Grand Master, no Grand Chancellor, nor anybody else has a right to say, "You must buy at least one share at $10 per share, or stand suspended." That is nirting with the courthouse. According to Worshipful Master C. Allen Oliver, Widow's Son Lodge No. 11, F. & A. M. Prince Hall, will open up with a snap, Wednesday evening, Sept. 19th, at ionic Temple. On that evening the degree of Entered Apprentice will be conferred upon a large class. With Widow's Son's credit Team doing the work, Past Master (Cha. J. Kemp, who was recently honored by elevation in another fraternity, will be a special guest of the lodge. The presiding officer of a lodge of one of the great fraternities recently informed us that he intends, just as soon as his lodge re-opens, appointing a committee to make a personal convass to seek out members who have ceased to attend lodge, ascertain their reasons for not attending and try to get them to again come to lodge, and consider it more than a disabling event. But until much of the mushm that poses on in a lodge is dispensed with and the lodge can offer to an intelligent membership entertainment and instructions to compete with other attractions, canvassing and greeting to attend is useless. To convene, carry out the ritualistic ceremonies and adjourn is not sufficient. When officers and members of a lodge seek to make the lodge-room clean and comfortable, and themself the vital issue of the day as well as the mysteries of the order, and come to the meetings really prepared to interest and inform the average man, there will be no cause to appoint committees to canvas and compile. "These boys the head that wore the crown." District Grand Master Harry J. Edwards, of the Odd fellows, is being deigned with many petitions. Everybody seems anxious to get into the Edwards band headway, but the two supervisors-Large, about twenty District Supervisors, and other officers are to be appointed, and if the D. G. M. can make a suitable selection from the large list of jobs and the others without a serious "headache" he is a fortunate man indeed. RE-ELECT GARRETT.

IF DISTINGUISHED SERVICE to one's own kind constitutes greatness. David Irwin Martin, director of Martin-Smith Music School, was really a great man. Or, if a man consecrate his life to those most in need of his services, whether or not they are his own kind, David Irwin Martin is still a great man. There is not the slightest doubt but that he was born with a genius for music and had he elected to do so could have made himself known throughout the world, same as Coleridge-Taylor, Harry Burleigh or Roland Haves. BUT DAVID IRWIN MARTIN elected to serve those most in need of his services—his own kind, here in Harlem, where he has lived so long and where he lived his last. While other distinguished musicians were playing to the King and Queen of England, or giving recitals and concerts in the Symphony or Carnegie Halls of Boston and New York City, David Martin was teaching the youth of his race. He suffered them to come unto him and never failed them. His prices were such that the poorest among us could send their children to him. HOW MANY BOYS AND GIRLS have been started on the road to right living and right thinking by coming in contact with him? How many young men and women are now earning their living as a result of the musical instruction he has given them? The number must certainly be a large one. He occupied a unique place in this community and his untimely death is a great loss to all of us. "What's in a Name?" BOUT EVERY ten years, like face of the locusts," says the ed dianapolis Ledger, "the colored is the 'political rambles.' The syn malady are restiveness and nu "ABOUT EVERY ten years, like the recurrence of the locusts," says the editor of the Indianapolis Ledger, "the colored brother catches the 'political rambles.' The symptoms of this malady are restiveness and nervousness and a desire to leave the Republican party. He doesn't know where he is going, but is on his way up blind alleys, which he thinks lead him to the Democratic party, but which are closed against him by Senators Pat Harrison, Oscar Underwood, Chairman Hull, and other typical leaders of that party. "Then he rambles—'rambles,' as the old song runs, 'rambles to and fro—rambles 'til the butcher cuts him down." THE NATIONAL NEGRO DEMOCRATIC LEAGUE, composed mostly of men and women who have rambled out of the Republican party, has voted to ramble a little further and to organize an all-Negro political association and to drop that noble name "Negro Democratic," but to continue to throw its support to the Democratic party. What's in a name? And why have Negro Democrats decided to change their name? As regards political parties and the Negro, what does the word Democratic stand for, anyway? It stands for: DISFRANCHISEMENT of the Negro. OPPRESSION of the Negro. DISCRIMINATION against the Negro. LYNCHING and BURNING of the Negro. BY USING ANOTHER NAME Negro Democrats hope to pull the wool over the eyes of the voters, but they will not succeed. They must not succeed. Such a move is nothing more or less than a confession of the deception and disgrace felt at being a Negro Democrat. It is all right to be disgruntled with the Republican party, but it is all wrong to affiliate one's self with the greatest enemy the Negro race in America has ever had. GIVEN THE RIGHT KIND OF NE- GRO LEADERSHIP we believe that the Republican party will "listen to reason" and re-establish itself in the heart of the Negro voter and citizen. "Rambling" to the Democratic party, and strengthening our enemy, cannot do us any good.

EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPORARIES Welcome to the N. A. A. C. P. (From the Kansas City Call) Unique among the efforts to right wrong is the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. As its name indicates, it attempts to help colored people, to protect them from the might of overruling whites, yet its first assumption is that there is enough of white in these same whites for it to be able to accomplish its ends through the lawful means which they have established. For instance it seeks to destroy lynching by an appeal to the courts for punishment of lynchers, expressing a confidence in the law which the lynchers apparently have not. Similarly it asks executives to act vigorously to prevent the law being broken by injustices against colored citizens, a request courteously expressed, but indicative of a fear less the executors of the law will not uphold it, caring less for it than the Association does.

SHORT CUTS The fall in lynching activities for the St. Georgia became spirted last week when three ored men were hanged and two flagged. Felix Randolph, a colored man, "assessed" Toney, white, and paid the penalty of being a death. His body was thrown in the river. The Sepulchre proposed to erect a theological inry for colored people at Nashville, Tennessee the white people successfully protested again. Statistical reports of the Supreme Lodge ored Pythain, which met last week in New showed a membership of 300,000 and really be throughout the country valued at $3,017,000. Colored farmers near Greensboro, N. C., have retreated and settled. The fall in leaching activities for the State of Georgia became spirited last week when three colored men were hanged and two flagged. Felix Randolph, a colored man, "sassed" Roy Toney, white, and paid the penalty of being shot to death. His body was thrown in the river. The Septembers proposed to erect a theological summary for colored people at Nashville, Tenn., but the white people successfully protested against it. Statistical reports of the Supreme Lodge of Colored Pyritium, which met last week in New York, showed a membership of $28,000 and reality holdings throughout the country valued at $3,017,000. Colored farmers near Greenville, N. C., have been granted extensive credits by the Federal Farm Loan Board for the purposes of improving their farms and purchasing new equipment. "FROM 'SUPERMAN' TO MAN" Sixth Installment "Yes," admitted Dixon, "a great number of uneducated Negroes, also a goodly number of those with mere book-learning, do act in a manner to warrant your statement. The habit that far too many Negroes have of calling themselves by those objectionable epithets given them by their white contemners cannot be too strongly condemned. And yet isn't the surest way of nullifying a nickname to call yourself by it? Anyway, I have been to South America and the Negroes there would never think of addressing one another thus. Indeed, even a full-blooded Brazilian Negro feels hurt if called a Negro in pretty much the same way that a descendant of the Pilgrim Fathers would be if called an Englishman. The Brazilian wishes to be known solely by his national patronymic." "Because he is ashamed of his race," retorted the passenger. "In Brazil," continued Dixon, "where slavery existed as late as 1586, the Negro is taught not only to regard himself the equal of the white man, but he is given an opportunity to prove it. There is no walk of Brazilian life, official or unofficial, where he is not welcome and to which he has not aspired. I have been credibly informed that more than one Brazilian President has had Negro blood in his reins. In the United States, on the other hand, it does appear as if everything possible is done to humble the so-called Negro, to suppress his self-respect. There ought to be small wonder, then, if many Negroes do not show sufficient manly dignity, and many others, without weighing the purport, try to appear white, an act that, after all, is just about as much an admission of inferiority as when a white man blisters himself, in the sun in an endeavor to appear, no doubt, like the bronzed heroes of the story books." The passenger did not respond. He appeared to be busily engaged in studying the inlaid woodwork. Dixon then added, with assumed gravity: "I must concede, however, air, that the average Negro acknowledges his inferiority tacitly and often by speech." The passenger straightened up instantly. He smiled triumphantly, and replied with an air of finality. "Well, that settles the argument. I know you would dinally come to the truth." And he arose as if to go. "But, in this instance," Dixon queried, archly, "might not an acknowledgment of inferiority proves a certain superiority?" "Inferiority proving superiority" shouted the other, dropping back into his seat. "What are you saving, anyway?" "Doesn't the case of the sexes explain this seeming paradox?" The average male human, as you will admit, is egistic. The more that woman, the weaker, humors this trait, the better she serves her own interest; similarly, the average white man's weak point is his color egism, and the more the Negro humors this failing, the more he serves his own interest. The greater the self-interest of woman, the more credulous she appears to tales of masculine prowess; the greater the self-interest of the Negro the more he flatters the white man's egism. Now, sir, is cleverer, the fooled or the one who fools?" The other did not reply. Dixon continued: "I'll give you an illustration. A friend of mine a doctor, told me he was a day in a barroom in Chicago, when a man whom he instantly recognised as a Southerner, by his dress and manner, entered. Lounging in a corner was, a Negro, one of those human beings who elect to live by their wits. No sooner had the Southerner ordered his drink than the Negro walked up and, looking at him admiringly, said, gushingly, 'What a pretty white man! Say, boss, yo' is from Missouri, ally yo'? "Yes, confirmed the other, much fattered at this open admiration, 'an' when ah yo' fum" "Oh boss, how kain yo' act me dat!" said the Negro, in mock indignation, eagerly crying the white man's glass. Then he wheedled, 'Say, boss, I'll have a "gin an' rass," too (raspberry wine and gin, a favorite drink among certain classes in Missouri). The Negro had the drink, and the white man, in paying, pulled out a large roll of bills. The sight of so much money fired the Negro's eloquence. He doubled his fatties, telling his host how the Northern migrants' were 'biggity,' how they thought themselves so good in the world, and how his victim flattered to the seventh heaven of delight, he sprang a hard-back story. The result was several more 'gin-an' rassers and a dollar." Diret rebutted the host in a heavy manner, but the senator tailed to see any honour in it. "From what you say," he ob- jected, coldly, "the white man must have been very ignorant. And, then, might not a 'nig'—Negro permit himself to be thus flattered by a white man?" "Possibly. But this story, and similar ones I could tell you, prove that acknowledgment of inferiority often means self-interest. The case of Booker T. Washington, however, provides a better example. Washington got along well in the South because he knew how to tickle the color-vanity of the whites. Had he shown the independent spirit of DuBois, we would not have done so well in the South. But I am opposed to this policy of trying to gain by subterfuge or blandishment that which is one's divine right." Silence for a few moments. The passenger appeared to be thinking deeply. Then he asked, "But how are you going to account for this? A Negro thinks himself superior to other Negroes in proportion to his amount of Caucasian blood. len't that an instinctive acknowledgment of inferiority?" "It is true," conceded Dixon, "that many lighter-skinned Negroes do look down on their darker brothers. Many others shun them, too, from economic necessity; that is, they can earn more by passing for white. But, in the first instance, can't we find a similar thing among the whites? Mark you. I am not defending this indefensible ignorance among so-called Negroes. I have always held that the man who protests against a thing should be the last man to practice it. In the United States, for the lack of a nobility, a premium is also set upon Mayflower descent, and many persons, so descended pride themselves upon their superiority due to ancestry — blue-bloods. F. F. yes, even from the dark-skinned Pocahontas. And the analog we might gain from Europe and might be evident to need further comment. Then, it must be remembered that there is considerable rivalry between the brunettes and the blondes. I have heard rather heated arguments between white women of these types as to their respective merits. Blondes, having the lesser amount of pigment, are supposed to be, the more virtuous, which, perhaps, accounts for the large number of chemical blondes among the women of your race—and mine, too, to some extent. "But those among us who have an infusion of Caucasian blood have nothing to boast of, since such are in the position of children who have been abandoned by one of their parents. Then, too, whenever such are discovered among the whites, they are always unceremoniously thrust out. In my opinion, the Negro who plumes himself upon his white descent simply does not think." The bell had begun to ring just as Dixon was "finishing; and he went in to answer the call of the girl, his gaze of interruption and continued away, hoping thereby to break off the argument. But the sensor, it appears, had no such intention, for when Dixon, ten minutes later, had occasion to re-enter the room, he was immediately assailed with: "There is another important point of Negro inferiority. The features of the Caucasian are more pleasing, not only to the Caucasian, but to the Negroes, judging from their own comments. No one would ever think of comparing the physiology of a Negro with that of an Adolec or an Aphrodite. The white man's native sense of beauty will never permit him to modify his ideals." He pressed, then added, with conviction "The Negro's physiology will ever make him unpleasing to the white man." Dixon thought of telling him that this matter of physiology was the cause of all the trouble; but replied, instead: "The features of the Caucasian are, as a rule, more pleasing only to his own ego, for each human variety, except when involved with the thoughts of another people, as the Negro in the New World, considers its facial casts the standard. Darwin, in his 'Descent of Man,' says that when the Negro boys on the east coast of Africa saw Burton, the explorer, they cried out, 'Look at the WHITE man! Does he not look like a white apes!'

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 3.—One of the largest conferences on race relations ever held in the United States was expected to begin with the opening mass meeting on Wednesday, August 29, of the 14th Annual Conference in Kansas City of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. A special train had been arranged, to carry delegates and authorities from Chicago, Kansas City, and large delegations were appointed from middle and far western and southern, as well as eastern territories. The Grand Lodge of Masons for Oklahoma elected a delegation of 25 of their best men to go to the N. A. A. C. P. Conference, and special cars were engaged to carry them, together with delegates from other Oklahoma branches. On Saturday, September 1, the entire conference is to visit the members of the 24th Industry, imprisoned in an area with prison, and an aftermath of the Houston race riot of 1817. The members of the conference are to be shown through the prison and will be given opportunity to talk with the prisoners. The Hon. C. B. Griffith, Attorney General of Kansas, who fought the Ku Klux Klan uncompromisingly in his State, is to present the Spingarn Medal to Prof. G. W. Carver, of Tuskegee. Mr. Griffith takes the place of Gov. Davis of Kansas, who had re-arranged his schedule in order to be able to attend the conference, but whose illness, typhoid fever, has confined him to his bed. Gov. Davis wrote expressing his regret at being unable to speak. Messages of greetings to the conference were received from President Calvin Coolidge and Moored Storey, president of the N. A. A. C. P., and were to be read at the opening mass meeting of the conference. President Coolidge Sends Greetings to N. A. A. C. P. KANSAS CITY, KANS—President Calvin Cooley has sent the following message of greeting to the Fourteenth Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, now holding a race relations conference in Kansas City: The White House, Washington. My Dear Mr. White: Thank you for drawing my attention to the approaching Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. I long regard you gathering as a gathering of the most useful and effective efforts in behalf of the colored people of the country, and sincerely trust that your sessions this year may be as productive of beneficial results as they have been in the past.

He addressed a crowded colored audience one night and was received with hands, bangers and choirs.

Colds and Crowds CATCHING COLD" means an acute inflammation of the respiratory tract—that is inflammation of the nose, throat or bronchial tubes. The inflammation is due to the activity of germs and bacteria getting into these parts and there multiplying and growing. In their growth and life they produce excretions which attack the mucous membrane of the nose, throat and bronchial tubes. These germs are infectious. They get into the atmosphere when people cough, sneezes or expectorate. In the theatre, halls, churches, where many hundreds of people congregate with doors and windows closed, especially during the Winter months, the atmosphere becomes surcharged and vitiated with an excess of carbon dioxide which is exhaled during the breathing. The tissues the nose and throat, the membrane of the nose and throat, and those whose air passages are already inflamed begin to cough and sneeze. Quite often a handkerchief is not used to cover the mouth and nose during the act of coughing and sneezing, and the result is bacteria and germs and their way into the Nashville Proud of Fisk Jubilee Singers (Proston News Service.) NASHVILLE, Tenn. Sept. 2. —Seldom will white people acknowledge that the Negro has done anything of merit or made any contribution worth white to America, but the Nashville Tennessee has the following to say editorially: "Nashville has no claim to interest more unique than that of being the home of the Jubilee Singers, and no form of entertainment appeals more sincerely to music-lovers than do the programs of old-time folk-song and its modern development as interpreted by these mischief singers. "The announcement that this famous organization will make its first appearance for the new season to night at the Auditorium is received with pleasure everywhere, an additional interest coming with the promise of a program even more full and varied than any yet presented by them. "There will be a generous number of the old melodies with which the original troop of Jubilee Singers once toured the great cities of Europe, and won the sympathy and the assistance of both crowned heads and commusers by the plaintive and persistent heart-ache that echoed in their songs. And, in addition to these haunting numbers from an older time than ours, the program from Thursday evening will contain also selections from the new school of Negro song culture and study have added to the scope of its perfections. "Professor J. Work, director of music at Fisk University and himself a singer and composer of note, will be heard for the first time in a new composition of his own, "The Negro Love Song." His wife, who is assistant Director at Fisk, will give the special solo, of the evening in "Nobody Knows the I See," written by the well-known composer Harry F. Bursig, chief of the famous choir of St. George's Church of New York. "The quartet will also appear in a number of songs never before presented in concert, among one of annual The Poets Corner Poems submitted for publication in "The Poet's Corner" will not be returned unless accompanied with a self-addressed and stamped envelope. I Want To Die While You Love Me I WANT to die while you love me, While yet you hold me fair, While laughter lies upon my lips And lights are in my hair.

Sept. 3.—Jef Harasy, last full- blooded male member of the Siuislaw tribe of northwest Indi- ance, is dead at his cabin near Florence, Ore. He was sold to have reached the age of 125 years. Other remaining members of the tribe three women, claim that with certain records of which I know, they are able to obtain brains, the claim the aged brains, and the old tribe, once powerful through central Oregon, was weakened by intermerying with the northern fish-eating people, later reduced by war with the white.
