Hon. Marcus Garvey There should be no rejoicing over the incarceration of Hon. Marcus Garvey, Provisional President of Africa and leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. His banishment, or the banishment of anyone, in itself is, in fact, a sad event in the reprisal system, which, in its stern duty of safeguarding society, is compelled to exact the right of freedom from offenders of the law. A portion of Mr. Garvey's program, however, was even more dangerous and a greater menace to the aspiring Negroes of America than was the offense for which the courts have sent him into confinement. That portion related to Mr. Garvey's cringing estimate of his own people. His estimate of them was that they were an inferior people, unfit to mingle with men as men, and unable to comprehend the futility of American freedom. It was his aim that they should be forever segregated from the society of the world, and unto themselves develop a land, of which for generations back the Negro people of America knew nothing. Mr. Garvey preached this doctrine far and wide. His theory of racial inferiority frequently found fertile ground in the minds of some members of the dominant racial group, who were encouraged by the spectacle of seeing a black leader advocate inferiority and segregation for his own people. Mr. Garvey's questionnaire to influential white individuals, both official and private, by which he (Continued on Page 11) Fight for Negro Officers Continues Equity Congress is having gratifying success in its campaign for all colored officers for the Fifteenth New York Infantry, but there is evidently some misunderstanding in regard to its petition. "The congress is waging a racial battle, not an individual one," said one of the official Monday. "The aim of the petition is to secure all colored officers for the regiment, now and henceforth. The petition recommends for promotion certain officers now in the regiment, but solely as a basis for starting the ball rolling and because the congress believed that these men possess the proper qualifications to fill the office. But the fight is for no specific individual or group of men. It is for a principle of right and justice that is to endure for generations to come. It matters not who may be assigned to the various offices, so long as they are members of the race and thoroughly qualified in every way." A canvass of Equity Congress reveals that there are here in the various boroughs comprising the City of New York 180 colored men qualified under the military law of New York for appointment as officers, and that 22 of these men are qualified for field officers. We therefore have the required material right in our midst. The movement on the part of Equity Congress is being conducted by former military men—veterans of the Spanish-American and World wars. Some of these men were commissioned officers, others non-commissioned officers, and still others were private. The best citizens of both races are supporting the movement, and the congress proposes to turn the spotlight of publicity on all opposition emanating from a purely political source or from the desire to accomplish its defeat because of disagreement with the campaign on account of some nagligible point of petty detail. A grand mass meeting to further this movement will be held on Tuesday, March 3, at the regular hall of the congress, 162-164 W. 129th street, in the main auditorium, at 8 o'clock p.m. Fifty-four prominent speakers have been invited and several have already definitely accepted. Former Governor Sulzer, who signed the bill creating the regiment, will be present. NOTICE I. Dr. NATHAN Fox, Burgeon Dentist, 2143 Seventh Avenue, N.

Brown in Tears at Meeting. PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 10. —Caught in the net which brought about the failure of the private banking concern of Brown & Stevens last week, the Cosmopolitan State Bank, another Negro institution here, was forced to close its doors Saturday by Peter G. Cameron, State Banking Commissioner. George W. Brown, bank examiner, was appointed receiver of the Cosmopolitan Bank. The last statement gave deposits as $140,000, capital $50,000, and surplus $18,000. The run on the Brown & Stevens Bank, owned by E. C. Brown and Andrew F. Stevens, started Saturday, February 7, and continued until Tuesday of the next week, at which time the owners found that it was impossible to meet the demands of deposition. They requested that a receiver be appointed and William M. Smith was given on the assignment. "For the past several weeks rumors have been circulating around the city to the effect that the bank (Brown & Suavev) was not on a strong foundation; that it was beginning to weaken," states a report in the Philadelphia Tribune "This information gradually gained in momentum and several large depositors withdraw their accounts, leaving only small balances. The crash started Saturday, when it was found out that the bank could not meet a demand for $36,000 from another institution in this city. The news spread like wildfire. Before the doors of the bank were opened on Monday morning a long line of deportors had formed in front of the bank. "For a time the bank was able to pay off. The paying teller paid out all saviable cash about 11 o'clock. But the crowd continued to stand in line. Speeches were made to the effect that payments would start again at one o'clock.

Hagan, of the Simpson street station, Ernest Minus, 38 truck driver, 211 E. 938 street, was arrested in the Homicide Court. Minus has confessed to the shooting, according to the police. Hagan was shot when he halted Minus, Norman Smith, 21, 1737 Third avenue, and Harry Whitman, 200 West 100th street, when his suspicions were aroused as to their conduct. Minus dropped a blackjack, it is said. Hagan stooped to pick it up, and Minus fired at him, hitting him in the abdomen. He died on the way to the hospital. The three run away with Detective Iooney in pursuit, shooting as he ran. Smith and Whitman fell, shot in the leg. Minus was captured a few hours later in a basement at 1481 Madison avenue. All three are said to have confessed that they were on the way to hold-up a crap game in a garage. Smith and Whitman were held in 4,500 ball each for alleged violation of the Sullivan law. Minus has a wife and four young children. DETECTIVES INVOKES, INVESTIGATIONS, EQU. BOULDER DETECTIVE AGENCY 123 Fourth Street, New York, N.Y.

ANOTHER PITTSBURGH PREACHER IN COURT Rev. Bailey Loses Clothing in Church Fight Pays Part Cost in Court (Preston News Service) PITTSBURGH. Pa., Feb. 16.—Church troubles of Pittsburgh of late get into court quite frequently. The latest episode came out of Union Baptist Church when the Rev. A. L. Bailey, pastor, haled certain alleged troublesome members of his congregation into court last week. During the course of the trial it developed that on September 14, last, at the Sunday night service, Edward Smith became angered because the pastor would not reag an announcement, and demanded the pastor to make the announcement. It is said that when Rev. Bailey saw that things were going rough he resorted to reading the scriptures. It is then the pastor claims that Smith stormed the pulpit and took a healthy swing, landing squarely on the pastor's jaw. Then a general mime ensued and several of the recalcitrant members joined Smith in the battle, resulting in the pastor's clothes being torn off. It was contended by the defense that Rev. Bailey had been unsatisfactory to a majority of the membership and that the church congregation had dismissed the pastor at a meeting held August 20, last. But he hadn't really been ousted, but had been permitted to continue to conduct the services. It was claimed that the dissatisfied members had opened a church of their own. The defendants declared that Rev. Bailey had actually started the battle that resulted in the loss of his clothing during the melee. The defendants were: Elijah Triplet, Elijah Millendon, Edward Woods and Edward Smith. They testified that Rev. Bailey had taken several un-Christian swings at them. They were charged with assault and battery and disturbing religious services. ATTENTION ATTENTION! ATTENTION! EXSERVICE MEN, why be lonehouse and without friends! JOIN NOW, the COL.

Officer Bailey took a look at his questioner's face and noticed that it was of an unusually shiny black color. Thinking his questioner was an actor, he asked a few questions himself.

COLORED MAN TRAPPED IN MINE NINE DAYS Lamp Fell in Pool of Water, Leaving Him in Total Darkness—Dazed When Rescued. (Preston News Service.) LOGAN, W. Va., Feb. 16. —After wandering in the lower levels of the Low Ash Mine at Crown, W. Va., near here, for nine days, John Robinson, aged 35 years, a race man and miner, was rescued Friday morning. When Robinson was brought to the top of the pit and had received some nourishment, he told his rescuers that after all Friday the 13th was not an unlucky day, especially for him. He entered the mine, which has been shut down for some time, to repair a pump. Robinson said his carbide lump fell into a pool of water, leaving him in abject darkness. Being unable to see his way he became confused, lost his bearings and wandered aimlessly in the mine until he was found Friday morning. He was in a coma when found. He was taken to Logan Hospital. It is believed that, had he remained there much longer, he would have been dead. He lost officials of the mine that after he found he was lost he began to worry and hurry from one place to another, and each effort he made to get out of the mine would result in finding himself in some entry. Robinson's unfamiliarity with the layout of the mine is believed responsible for his inability to find an exit. Friends of Robinson who are experienced miners and familiar with the layout of the mine and its workings are said to have had trouble in locating him when they learned that he was last seen entering the mine about nine days previous. It is said that when a number of his crimes met Friday morning query was made as to the whore-abouts of Robinson. Some said they had heard that he and gone to Pennsylvania to work in the mines at Bentleyville; others said they had supposed he had quietly gone out of town for a few days. Then it was learned that Robinson had been sent into the mine by officials some time ago to fix the nump. Inquiry was made at the mine office; they were informed that Robinson had been sent into the mine and had not reported on condition of the nump. A searching party was quickly formed and in a few hours Robinson had been recount. On Wednesday evening, February 26, 1956, Dr. W. E. R.

CHICAGO, Feb. 16.—Jack Johnson, former champion heavyweight pugilist, will take the witness stand for the State in its prosecution of W. E. D. Stokes and his three co-defendants charged with conspiracy to defame the character of his wife, Mrs. Helen Elwood Stokes, in support of the charges made by Mrs. Stokes of a frame-up. It was several years ago, Johnson told the state Prosecutor, while he was playing in vaudeville in Kansas, that an alleged representative of Stokes-called on him and asked him to sign an affidavit declaring that he had been an intimate associate of Mith Stokes. $ 500 DOWN Pay us this amount DOWN and you at once come into possession of the furniture which strikes your fancy.

I don't want to go to jail." A few months after this episode, Johnson's story asserts, similar overtures were made to him when he was in New York City. He made similar replies, he declared. In court Monday, Mrs. Stokes heard herself denounced by her wealthy husband's attorney. Biting her lips, but otherwise apparently unmoved, she heard herself branded "a vicious babble," doubt cast upon the kind of a wife and mother she had been, and even her motive in coming to Chicago from Denver to attend a trial, in which her good name is one of the stakes, questioned. "The State has drawn for you a picture of this woman as a demure, inoffensive thing," said Attorney Charles F. Kratbun, of the defense. "So she has shown herself in this courtroom—so far. But we propose to show that, far from being that sort of woman, she is and has been for years past a vicious babbier." In his chair Stokes twisted and turned so that, slantwise across the room, he might look at Mrs. Stokes. She caught the movement and, after one quick glance at him, lowered her eyes and kept them fastened on the floor.

Lieutenant Earl W. Mann, colored World War veteran, and Commander of the Wallace Simpson Post 29 of the American Legion, located in Denver, Colorado, has sent to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People a resolution passed by his post condemning the action of the War Department in bowing to race prejudice by revoking its order stationing the 25th U. S. Infantry at Fort Logan because of protests received from white residents. The War Department had ordered the 25th Infantry, a colored unit, transferred from field duty on the Mexican border to Fort Logan. Shortly afterward this order was revoked. "The only reason" says the colored veterans' resolution, "as we forth for the repeal of the said War Department order, commanding the 25th infantry, U. S. A., to garrison duty at Fort Logan, Colorado, is in compliance with the GILBERT FRASER 2263 7TH AVE., NEAR 133D ST.

The revolution further states that, "this complaint and objection to the garrisoning of the 26th Infantry, U. S. A., at Fort Logan, Cole, is based solely upon the color of the troops." Setting forth action that this War Department action constitutes an injustice and an unwarranted reflection upon a body of loyal and well behaved U. S. soldiers, the resolution concludes: "Resolved, That it is for the purpose of securing equitable treatment of the members of the 26th Infantry, U. S. A., and for the protection and perpetuation of friendly relations between the white and colored people of America that we, the Wallace Simpson Post, American Legion; the Denver Colored Civic Association, the Denver Ministerial Interdenominational Alliance, and the Denver Branch, N. A. A. C. P., respectfully and most earnestly petition our worthy and estimable President of the United States, our honorable Secretary of War, and the honorable members of the Congress of the U. S. from the Centennial State, to give these resolutions and petition their unbiased consideration and bring such influence to bear as will assure the garrisoning of the 26th Infantry, U. S. A., at Fort Logan, Colo." The resolution was signed by Lieutenant Earl W. Mann, Commander Wallace Simpson, Post 79, American Legion; B. V. Cammel, president the Denver Colored Civic Association; C. H. Uggams, president the Denver Ministerial Interdenominational Alliance, and Geo. W. Grosse, president Denver Branch, N. A. A. C. P. Copies have been sent to the White House in Washington, to Congress, the Secretary of War, the National Office in the N. A. A. C. P. and the colored press. POINTS OUT ALLEGED ROBBER TO OFFICER When pointed out to Policeman Thomas Reardon by Leo Alexander, West 118th street, as one of the men who had entered his home with the intention of robbing it, the night before, Benjamin McCarlo, 22 of 5 West 135th street, ran for cover, amid the burdens of Reardon's revolver, and the shots scattering the dust at his fleeing heels. Reardon, to reach the fugitive, attempted to board a passing cab, and missing it, was tossed to the pavement, sustaining a fractured finger and several bruises. McCarlo so was found crouching behind ash cans in the basement of 120 West 132d street. When arraigned in Adee Helghta Court he was held in $8,500 bail, receiving. With the pair oner at the time was a companion who also fled at the approach of the officer. After a chase of several blocks by Mounted Policeman Foster, James Holland, of 411 Hudson avenue, Brooklyn, was placed under arrest, charged with the theft of a fur coat, valued at $25, belonging to Miss Grace Perry, of the same address. Indefinite Term for Ernest Hawkins.

Hawkins was arrested at 61 West 135th street, Sept. 26. Dr. Robert R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute, principal speaker at an educational mass meeting held at Abyssinia Baptist Church Sunday afternoon, eulogized Booker T. Washington, his predecessor. "Along with the great educators of the world—Aristide, Plato, Freebel"—he said, "we must place Brooker T. Washington. Not another man has so influenced education in this country as he." "Booker T. Washington believed in all kinds of education, fitting all students at Tuskegee for the life they were to lend," he said. Washington's ideal, said Dr. Moton, was the highest ideal of all names, love. Tuskegee Institute he said, is bringing about a better understanding between the races through education. Dr. Moton is in the city in the interest of the endowment fund being raised on behalf of Tuskegan and Hampton institutes. The amount sought is $8,000,000, of which all but one and a half million has been raised, of this sum he said Mr. Eastman, of the Eastman Kodak Co. gave $2,000,000 on the condition that the remaining $6,000,000 be raised by Dec. 31, 1925. The colored people throughout the country had been assessed $90,000. Dr. Moton said that he pointed out to the directors of the campaign that this was too small a sum, and since then it has been increased to half a million dollars. Mrs. Leila Walker Wilson has pledged $25,000 and a colored man in Boston $2,000. Hampton and Tuskegan graduates are being asked to give $100 each. Other speakers were Dr. Ira S. Wile, former commissioner of the Board of Education, and Mrs. William Wilcox, a trustee of Tuskegee Institute, Dr. Chas. Roberts acted as chairman and the burection was offered by the Rev.

In the Holy Land many Biblical passages are being more indelibly impressed upon their minds by their sight of the things and places of another day which remain unchanged by the ornish of time. Their complete program of sightseeing in Palestine has taken them to many interesting and sacred places, among them the Church of the Holy Sepulchre covering the spot where Christ was crucified and buried. In this church is the Rock Calvary, the stone which covered the mouth of the sepulchre and a stone with two imprints said to be the footprints of Christ; the Church of the Ascension, covering the spot from where Christ ascended into Heaven upon the third day; the Russian Excavation Church, which encloses the original gates of Jerusalem; the Garden of Gethsemane, situated on the road to the Mount of Olives, in a quiet, excluded spot, where Peter, James and John slept. Near this is the spot where Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus with a kiss. Bethlehem, the home of David and Christ, has been visited, where was seen the Church of the Nativity, erected over the birthplace of Christ. Bethany and Jericho have been visited; the Dead Sea, where stands the traditional Pillar of Salt; the River of Jordan, by which is the Valley of Moab overlooked by Mount Nebo, on which Moses is buried. Other place of Biblical importance too numerous to mention have been visited by these men, and their trip is proving all that imagination could make it. As one member of the party wrote: "The sightseeing has brought more to me already than I had anticipated." STOLEN COAT GIVEN HIM, MAN SAYS Charged with robbing the clothing store of Solomon Marbleld, 306 West 146th street, Christopher Herman, 27, 273 West 142d street, was arraigned in the Heights Court and held in $1,000 bail for a hearing. Herman was arrested by Detective Harvey when the latter saw him entering a pawnbait with some clothing. On searching a coat the defendant had in his band, the detective said that he saw Marbleld's name. Herman pleaded not guilty and said that the clothing had been given to him. Felt Pickpocket's Hand in His Pocket. Accused of picking the pockets of Theophilus Jones, 305 West End avenue, of $15 during a dance at the New Star Casino, Wyatt Taylor, 42.11½ West 135th street, was held in $1,000 bail when arraigned in Harlem Court. Jones said that he felt a hand entering his pocket and glanced around in time to see Wyatt. IN ONE DAY by railroad and ferry 959,589 people arrive in New York City. Speaking on "The Public in Relation to the Courts," as the Harlem Educational Alliance, Judge Jacob Panken scored the landlords for their speculation in real estate and then using the courts to enforce their will on the tenants "Speculating in real estate is a lucrative business," said Judge Panken, "and sometimes contracts for property change hands three or four times before the closing, meaning that rents are unduly jacked up and tenants are paying a profit on inflated values, due to speculation. "The rest laws, without a doubt, are a reflex of the law, as developed socially. Laws, however, are often made to serve an unsocial purpose. The courts have uniformly held that a landlord, seeking possession of property for his own use, is entitled to the premises. Establishment Procedent. "In the Agodowski case, which came before me, I followed the law and gave the landlord possession of the premises. But instead of occupying the premises, the landlord rented them out to somebody else. For the first time in the history of the law, I established a precedent; that the landlord cannot use the court to perpetrate an outrage. "I found him guilty of contempt of court and finned him $150, with the proviso that should he refuse to pay he would go to jail. "Today I handed down a decision of great importance. The Appellate Division decided in the Markwein against Gelisler case that decisions fixing rent heretofore were faulty and laid down the rule that rents received from stores in tenement houses are not to be included in the aggregate rent receipts. "Thus in a building with six tenants and two stores, the stores paying $100 a month rent each and the tenants paying $15 a month rent each, the rent credited to these tenants for the purpose of fixing a rental would be $25 per store. To wilt, $150 would have to be distributed among eight tenants, so that each would have to pay about $17, more per month.

Here in Harlem last Saturday all roads led to the Commonwealth Sport Club, and as early as 1:15 Matchmaker Joe McMahon was seriously engaged with members of the New York State Athletic Commission explaining that the only reason he would arrive on the hundred miles he was headed for the road to the points of vantage because of the lack of space. In the club was, because he prefers in giving the fans a big run for their money.

In Brooklyn last week when a fine gathering turned out to witness the games. Owing to the many pictures we are reproducing in the Amsterdam News today, the full account of the games had to go over until our next issue. Watch for it. before the fight had gone four healthy rounds the seconds of Frank Yarchan sent the towel into the ring to save their fighter Lawson shaped up like a real fighter and Yarchan did not have a chance. This new sensation of Walk Miller is bound to be heard from and should be brought back to the Commonwealth against some of the white hopes parading around these diggings as prospective heavyweight champions. Thename the jungle creature who is the talk of the entire world. A hasty glance around the building proved to the Tiger that he is still a fighter with one of the largest followings in the game today and he immediately went out to maintain his reputation as a man who fights from start to finish. Clark tried valiantly to stem the tide of the Georgia Tornado, and for four rounds managed to weather the storm. Tiger did not extend himself any and while Clarke, like Barkia, was willin', it was not so good for him, and to save their man the towel was thrown into the ring after Clarke's canniflower ear seemed to be hanging by a thread and dripping blood with every breath he took. It was a big night for the colored fighters and the customers went home early. We trembled for the result when Bennie Borgemann's All Stars and the boys of the Renaissance Big Five met at the Renaissance Casino at Sunday night, but our fears seemed to have been without any reason, as Captain Siocum and his men went out and proved that they are all the same to them these days. The drawing qualities of the Renaissance were never shown to better advantage than they were at Sunday night. Seats had to be moved back to the rail, and considering the large number of people who turned out the previous night at the same place, the Renaissance must be considered the best attraction in colored basketball today. Even the presence of Whitby, of the Celtic team, playing with the stars, made no difference to the Big "R" men. None of the stars made more than three field goals, while Ricks led with seven. Fell with five; Jenkins drew, and both Mayers and Bloem registered three for both teams. Score—one 54-38 in favor of the hosts. The coming Saturday night our boys are going up against the crack Philadelphia Fusiliers. This team defeated "Oscar" Fowry and his Leonard Five of Pittsburgh last week and are coming back hope to be the first to register a win over the Renaissance on the home court. Another big crowd will without doubt be on hand, as this is one of the biggest intensity games played here in some time. Anniversary rules will be played on Saturday night. PHILADELPHIANS COMING FOR BIG GAME Brooklyn Elks Draw Large Crowd to Armory NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS/BOOKMARK, FEB. 16, 1925 Walk Miller Says He'd Gladly Give the Tiger's End to Charity But Warns All Hands Not to Bank on It, as the Tornado Has No Intentions of Losing New York City Feb. 14, 1925 Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty. sport editor, Amsterdam News New York City. Friend Dougherty. Just arrived from Atlanta and my attention is called to the story in the Amsterdam News wherein it is suggested that in the event of a return Delaney-Flowers both the Fighting Deacon's purse should be donated to colored charity. Flowers meet Jackie Clark of the Commonwealth Club together and immediately after this dedication scheduled to leave for Boston to scheduled engagement with four Bogas Monday, so you see I have my hands fall. Your story with the right chord. I fully agree with you that it should be turned over to colored charity to any one. wish to assure you that if the future a Delaney Flower matches made under the stipulations I have set down in regards to charity and flowers loses said contest, I will insist that colored charity cut the end that was to be Flowers in the vent he was WHIPPEP by Delaney. In making my offer, I never stipulated that charity was to be fit and at your time sucked in. I shall by all means design it to to col red charity. As strong efforts were made in certain quarters to intimate that I was only after a loser's and in a return match I very empirically squelched said rumors by offering in good faith to let Flowers be the baney and let charity benefit IF Mr. Delaney proved the better fighter. So it would seem that the really is no cause for alarm, and I would not advise any one seeking to benefit it to rush out and spend any of the Fighting Deacon's money. It is no lead-pipe clutch, to revert to race track slam, that Deacon will AGAIN defeat Flowers, and unless he does, what becomes of the charity angle? In his two attempts since his "victory" over Flowers at the garden, Delaney has twice been whipped. At Wilken-Barre three nights after his Flowers meeting all of the newspapers said that Albemouth and Gans was the victim of a bad decision when the referee gave the verdict against the colored boner. One judge voted for a draw, one gave the decision to Gans. YET the referee raised Delaney's glove. Against Slattery at the Garden more recently, Delaney did not display any murderous punching power, and I feel quite certain if the rank and file of the fictional fandom follow closely the future accomplishments of ROTH Delaney and Flowers in the ring they like I will learn to the opinion that Flowers is the better man. Against the two defeats of the lancey, Flowers has gone to but against Tommy Robson. Jim Sawyer, Ted Moore, Jamaika Kid, stopping Robson, Savage and Jamaica Kid and handing out a one-sided facing to Ted Moore, who gave the champion, Greb, a merry fifteen-round argument. I feel confident that Flowers will keep up the good work against Clark tonight and England in Boston next Monday. I am not alibi—it is unnecessary—yet the real Flowers has not been seen in action since that memorable night at the Garden when Flowers was felled like an ox By the time you receive this letter, Flowers will be on his way to his home town. Brunswick, Ga., where a five-rive feature film is to be enacted revolving around the story of the Fighting Deacon's life, stressing the fact that he has always as a good citizen tried his utmost to observe the golden rule of life, which has enabled him to reach the top ranges of the purplistic ladder. The Tiger and I feel that are the present year role by I will be handling the champion middle and light-heavy weight of the world. In conclusion, as for a return match with Delaney, we have dismissed this from our minds. The insignificant offer of fifteen per cent made by the matchmaker of the Garden is an insult to the intelligence of the freight-paying public, and proves that needed publicity for the Delaney-Slattery match was the motive. Flowers will go right along fighting his way to the championship. Thanking you for past courtesies I am. You're truly. WALT MILLER.

The game was one of the highest schools seen in music, most featured by ex- cellently well guarding and combat and shooting. The Superior Tigers called 8 fouls in 10 out of 10 games. They were in nine field goals made during the entire game, even from difficult posi- tions the Jersey boys scor- led to Bricktown. 4. Neither man received any stumps. The score ended the first half and continued a trip and tuck affair between the two teams with neither having an advantage more than two points.

Pina, more Independents, in Super Bowl II. The series now stands one game each, the Super Bowl having defeated them 22-19 earlier in the season. Manager Niles tried to rebook the Independents for a play-off enter in Brooklyn or in Jersey City, but Manager Nielson would have none of it. More power to them, but a play-off of this would attract a commissioner from other city. The Superiors vs. St. Christopher game at Labor Lycum, Feb. 24, now comes as the season's classic. St. C. has been sweeping things for two years and is sending her red and black machine to Hibernate once on the Lightning Five to her list of victims. Coach Bradford has rounded out one of the fastest combinations St. C. ever boasted. Toreward among their list of victims have decisively defeated Virginia Union University team and the Tuxedos of Chung Metropolitan Basketball Association lightweight champions. The one point defeat of the Lightning Five proves that the Brooklyn quintet is not invincible and with St. C. still close at hand the "Soup Five" are working hard to stave off another defeat. The Superior club has secured two arieties for this game—Chris Hulkswold, the Renissance referee, to alternate with Gene Brown in tossing the ball and calling 'em from the sides. This arrangement guarantees a fast and clean game, as both these officials are reputed among the best in Metropolitan basketball. Special dance music has also been secured.

Billiard Notes By OLD* IVORY. Just received a beautiful postal from my old friend, Eugene Nicolae, who is wintering in Bermuda. He says it is beautiful there. Flowers, sunshine, cocktails. "But my God, no billiards." I wonder if Hope will get away with Cannelle? Such a thing is possible but not probable. We have always thought Taber ski the best pocket billiard player barring illness. This year he is making all the players in the National Pocket Billiard Tournament sit up and take notice. William (Bojanzee) Robinson is in town. Lucky boy when he can take his accessories baggage into an asset. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson are an interesting couple. Entries for the Harlem Championship Pocket Billiard Tournament are being listed at the Lafayette Billiard Emporium. This honor and trophy is now held by Ernest Honghad (1926). Eddie Marklin has been relaunched at the Emporium and well satisfied to be home again, where the ghost walks every Monday rain or shine. Blue and Garnet Players Defeat Jersey Maids 18 to 6 at St. Mark's Hall Last Thursday. The Tattler Gris' basketball team kept up their winning streak in defeating the Tuxedo Gris of New Jersey at St. Mark's Hall on Lincoln's Birthday evening, Feb. 12, by the decisive score of 18 to 6. Sode, Cunningham, the center of the Tattler blue and garnet machine, led the attack of her team and was the most aggressive player on either quintet. Great defensive work on the part of both aggregations held the score down, and two points chalked up in favor of the Tuxedo was due to a freak field basket by H. Jordan, who scored four of the six points made by her team. Sarah Pollard, forward and captain of the Tattler five, was the high scorer for the home team, making four field shots and a foul for nine points. Sothe Cunningham accounted for three baskets and a foul, seven points in all, and little June, the favorite of the fans, added the two other points on a cleverly made basket from the field. The Tattler quintet failed to play up to the standard set in previous games, which was fortunate for the visitors, or, the score would have been far more one-sided. The cold hall and the late arrival of the Jersey maids seemed to have robbed the home team of its pop. Sothe Cunningham was the only one who seemed imbued with the fighting spirit, and this was due, no doubt, to the presence of her "Sheik." Getting the usual jump on their opponents, the Tattler lashes run wild in the first period of play. Sarah Pollard was the first to score on a clearly shot basket from the field, which she followed up a second or two later with a foul point. Then H. Jordos came through with her fake shot, and after that it was all Tattler, with Sarah making another basket. Sode two and June one, for the grand total of 11 points to 2 for the Turtado girls. The second period of play found Captain Pollard's champions resorting to defensive work and giving the second string players a chance to work out, and the house competition added but scores from the second score fell. Sarah and lead by Clementine, while the vintage tallied a field basket and two goals for four points. The Tattler Girls play again Thursday, Feb. 31, at St. Martin's Hall, meeting the strong Brooklyn F. W. C. A.爱 in a return game. The Brooklyn girls gave the Tattler blue and garnet machine a hard battle a few weeks ago, and are eager to avenge the defeat sustained at the hands of the girls from this end of the big bridge. Admission will be 50 cents, and, as usual, there will be two games and dancing before and after the play. Women's Auxiliary to N. A. A. C. P.

At this time the Women's Auxiliary to the N. A. A. C. P. will offer to the public its third annual spring dance for the benefit of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the most efficient organization for justice to the Negro in the United States.

This year, instead of having a program and dancing, it was decided to devote the entire evening to dancing. The public, therefore, is urged to come early, for the dancing will begin at 9 P. M. and continue until 3 A. M. Past experience has demonstrated that boxes must be engaged early. Mrs. Ford Dabney, in charge of boxes and logs, already reports an amazingly large advance sale.

JOHNSON 2041 7TH AVE. Apt. 21 Phone And. 1000 One of the largest mixed gatherings that ever witnessed a basketball game is expected at the Orange Armory in Orange, New Jersey, tomorrow night, when the famous players of the Renaissance Big Five line up against the famous National Turners of Newark. This game is the star event of a double header, the first game being between the Buffaloes of this city and the youngsters of the Titan A. C. The New Yorkers are returning to New Jersey to give the Titans a chance to attempt a comeback as they wrested a hard earned victory from J. Richard Lee's team in their previous contest. The Resilience Big Five should enter the armory with as large a following as the National Tumors, as the colored players are today recognised as basketball change of the race, and to add to the interest of the success in which they will engage, "Chuck" Seidler, who referred the Celtic Kingdom game will not in the same capacity for this big contest. Of course, New York will be expecting the Douglas men to return home with the bacon, but we want to warn the enthusiastic followers of the colored team that the boys are going against one of the strongest aggression of basketball players and not to suspect too much of them. Capsita Sternum will be supported by Rika, Martin Garcia, Maynard, Jackson and Finn. "Pappy" Blake, known for and near as the "Human Kangaroo" will be making his first appearance in big time basketball this season on the armory court, and from the manner in which he has been causing the shocks recently we would not be surprised to see him giving his home field his biggest thrill while the game lusts. Blake is going better than he ever did in his career and bids fare to end the season with a record surpassing any effort he has made in basketball. Last Saturday night at the Renalisance Casino the home team again won hands down against the Ozone Park Big Five. After having stepped a victory over the famed Nuggetville of Brooklyn in the same week, the Ozone Park players were but "worst material" for the Renalisance boys, and at no stage of the contest was the result in doubt.

Milk supplies some of all the material necessary for growth and also, furnishes energy for work, play and warmth. It is an indispensable part of the diet of mothers who are nursing babies, and of young children. A pint and a half a day is a safe allowance of milk for an average child, while pregnant or nursing mothers, infants and many children need a quart of milk a day. Turnish all the protein the body needs. A quart of milk supplies as much protein as seven ounces of sirloin steak or four large eggs. Milk supplies minerals. If the growing child does not have an abundance of minerals in his diet this deficiency may show in stunted growth, weak bones or poor teeth. Special care must be taken to select foods rich in lime, prophors and iron. Our bones and teeth are made largely of lime, which is a form of calcium. One part of milk will formish as much calcium as ten large oranges, 32 eggs or 20 pounds of beef. Milk is also a valuable source of phosphorus and iron. The body must also be provided with certain essential substances called vitamins. If health and normal development are to be assured, all known vitamins are found in fresh milk, but one or possibly two of the vitamins may be lacking in oor, state or heated milk. Milk needs supplementing to supply certain minerals and vitamins in sufficient quantity and, after the early months of life, for energy and nourishment.

Brown, of New Haven, Conn., chairman of the Board of Trustees of the university, presided. President Durkee Reports. President J. Stanley Durkee of Howard University in his report at the semi-annual meeting of the board called attention to the great progress which the university is making in the educational world. The wide scope of collegiate and professional work being done at the university is indicated in the statistics showing the number of students enrolled in the various departments of the university at the close of the autumn quarter, December 31st, 1924. The tabulation is as follows: Student Enrollment College department: Junior college, 624; liberal arts, 188; commerce and finance, 26; education, 49; applied science, 68; music, 42; public health, 1; evening classes, 185; making a total in the college department of 1,146 students. Professional schools: School of pharmacy, 2; religion (special correspondence), 97; music (certificate courses), 24; making a university grand total at the end of the autumn quarter, 1824, 1,580 students. For the winter quarter additions will bring the attendance up to 2,000. The president commented upon the registration figures that there would probably be a total of 2,400 students enrolled in the university during the school year 1924-25. Dr. Scott Analyzes Finance. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, the secretary-treasurer of Howard University, in discussing his financial report to the Board of Trustees at the semi-annual meeting, gave a thorough analysis of the income and expenditures of the university, explaining in detail the report of the auditors of the university covering the past fiscal year. A comparison with the total assets at the close of the preceding year showed the increase of $112,524.69, the valuation of the education plant showed an increase of $39,971, representing the purchase of new equipment amounting to $17,744 and expenditures of $3,697 on account of the new gymnasium, armory and athletic Field. Other items contributing to the increase in the total assets of the university, including the increase in the endowment funds brought about through the endowment fund campaigns in the interest of the schools of medicine and religion of the university. Attention was also called to the fact that, while there has been an increase in the total assets of the university, the university's needs have greatly increased and there is necessity for a larger suite for operating expenses. The Board of Trustees appointed a committee to draft a resolution to express the great loss which the university and the Board of Trustees has sustained in the passing of Mr. Andrew F. Hillyer, who served so long and faithfully Howard University as a member of its Board of Trustees. The committee is composed of Dr. Francis J. Grimke, Justice Stanton J. Peele and Hon. James C. Napier. While at the university members of the Board of Trustees made a tour of the grounds and a special visit to the site where the new gymnasium, armory and athletic field will be situated. The MPs for the work on these development projects have recently been let and work on the laying out of the site has been commenced. Law Committee Reports. According to a report made to the Board of Trustees by its Committee on the School of Law, composed of Dr. Albert Bushnell Hart, Mon. James C. Napier and Dr. Marus F. Wheatland, this particular school of the university is set up as a model for the other schools of the university in the progress it has made as to its administration from a physical and academic point of view. The chairman of the committee usually commended the administration officers and the faculty the操场 which which the Amsterdam News law school & stating that it is worthy & placed along side of the rd law schools of the count Among the are responsible for the sed recognition which the w the school of law of Howtiversity is receiving are Daton W.

RADIO Velled Artists Sing to Serened Microphone in Brunswick Programs Absolute secrecy is the watchword of the Brunswick Recording Laboratories every Tuesday evening. Heartily veiled ladies dash down deserted corridors and dodge hurriedly through quickly closed doors; puzzled radio operators sit in a locked ante-chamber and modulate the program coming from a microphone to which they have no access; a wondering orchestra plays accompaniments for a singer hidden from them by a heavy screen; and elevator men and electricians stand in little groups with complete bewilderment written large on their faces. The radio music memory content inaugurated by the Brunswick-Balke-Collender Company on the third of February through stations WJZ, New York; WGY, Scheuendt; WRC, Washington, and KDKA, Pittsburgh, has brought into existence the most unique broadcasting methods ever employed. With hundreds of thousands of listeners in every part of the country competing for the $5,000 cash awards, to be given to those guessing the largest number of artists' names and compositions, it is imperative that no whisper of the identities of the singers leak out from the Brunswick studios. For the first time in radio history, an announcer introduces an artist whom he cannot see. The announcer is seated in a tiny room separated from the broadcasting studio by a heavy locked door; a tiny electric light is before him, connected to a button switch beside the microphone in the studio. When the artist finishes each number the button is pushed and the announcer takes the air; when the next singer is ready the button is pushed again, the light goes out, and the announcer ceases talking. The members of the Brunswick Symphony Orchestra, which accompanies the singers, cannot see for whom they are playing; a heavy screen separates the microphone from the remainder of the room, and the singer is behind the screen. In view of the very rapid changes in radio technology within the last six months and to give greater clarity to Departmental policies, it seems to me desirable to review the situation. There can be but one point of view in the consideration of radio regulation and development. That is to assure increasing service to the listener. The radio is steadily enriching our homes. More particularly to our farmer folks it is bring more of those contacts that the town populations have alone enjoyed up to this time. The road of progress is to stimulate the development of the art; to prevent interference with and between broadcasting stations through maintained competition; to secure greater perfection of reception, increase in the number of alternative programs and better programs. 563 Broadcasting Stations. There are today 563 broadcasting stations either in operation or under construction. Of these 465 are class A (of 500 watts power or less) and 108 are Class B (over 500 watts). It is generally believed that Class A stations have a radius of good practical reception of not more than 25 or 50 miles, while Class B stations with their larger and increasing power have a much wider radius. By practical reception I do not include the reception which radio listeners are able to secure by playing radio golf, but the effective, serviceable, reliable reception of programs which must be the real purpose of radio. The recent policy of the Department of allowing the increase in power toward a possible maximum of 5,000 watts will mean that the radius of serviceable reception will be greatly increased and the reception itself within the present radius will become very much more reliable. This is of particular importance to our agricultural people, especially in Summer and炎热 daytime. The present plan in this particular is to permit advance in power use in stages of 500 watts, resting at each stage to determine what interference with other stations results. Probably so or 20 Class B stations are now increasing or planning to increase their power.

None of the artists singing in the contest programs know who the other artists are. Each artist is unshared into a tiny waiting-room immediately upon entering the Brunswick Laboratories, and there they wait until their turn arrives. Immediately after they have concluded their program they leave the building. They wear heavy veils or scarfs over their faces as they enter and leave the building, lest the elevator men or any curious bystander recognize them.

Vick that good serviceable reception will be obtained for a radius of several hundred miles from such stations, thus increasing the alternative programs to listeners. This advance toward 5,000 watt stations has no relation to the so-called "super power" 50,000 watt stations. Wave Length Distribution. The most difficult problem in radio regulation and development is the distribution of wave length use so as to prevent interference between stations. There are in all 86 different wave lengths available if we keep the stations ten kilocycles apart and stagger the assignment of wave lengths geographically so as to prevent overlap in the area of effective reception. The recent experiment of the Department in attempting to increase the number of wave lengths by decreasing the difference to seven kilocycles proved unsuccessful with the present development of instruments. One of the great difficulties in the distribution of wave lengths arises from the tendency of stations to congest in large centers of population. The worst conditions are at Chicago and New York. At Chicago we wave lengths are available for ten operating Class B stations, and there are several others in course of construction. For New York there are six wave lengths available for eight Class B stations, and more are under construction. The whole art, both from the point of view of its expansion, the number of stations, character of the programs, purposes of the broadcasters, the scientific development going on in increased use of power and in improved instruments, and therefore better and wider radius of reception to the listeners, together with the complex social and legal problems involved, is in a state of complex flux, and it is my feeling that our ideas as to the character of legislative regulation should be clarified within another year. In the meantime the fine co-operation of the industry is preventing any infraction of public interest and the free competitive development of the art is bringing fine results in public service.

J., Feb. 20—An appeal for aid in carrying on a campaign of health education among the Negroes of the state in an effort to reduce the mortality from tuberculosis in that race was made by William Ashby, executive secretary of the Urban League, to officers of the New Jersey Tuberculosis League and its affiliated groups at their conference Tuesday afternoon at the Robert Treat Hotel. Mr. Ashby's request for a nurse to work among the colored people was referred to the board of directors of the Tuberculosis League at its meeting Wednesday. Mr. Ashby declared that thousands of Negroes had come into the state from the South during the last few years and that the change in climate and living conditions had caused more or less illness that might have been prevented had they had counsellors versed in health work to guide them. Many have contracted tuberculosis and the failure to get the proper care has kept the death rate from that disease from being further reduced. According to Ernest D. Easton, executive secretary of the Tuberculosis League, the death rate from tuberculosis in 1834 was approximately 88 per 100,000 popula- ARTISTS LEAVE ON NEW ENGLAND TOUR Mr. W.

It is the hope of the league to further reduce this death rate during 1925 and to accomplish this the league has about $8,000 more to expend this year than last. The 1924 Christmas seal sale having brought approximately $220,000 to the state organization and its affiliated groups as compared with approximately $220,000 in 1923. Weak spots in the 1924 seal campaign were discussed and preliminary plans made for the campaigns of this year, which will start the latter part of November. Under an agreement made by the National Tuberculosis Association with the Red Cross the state campaigns are not started until the annual roll call of the latter organization has been ended. Basil G.

"Our ancestors were not brainless insects," declared Pastor Strachan last Sunday night in his lecture at the Haram Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, 108-108 W. 12th street. The pastor was making a severe assignment of the popular theory of evolution, which presumes to give a true account of the origin of matter, man, the world, and all things therein.

He first gave a brief history of the modern theory of evolution, naming its leading exponents for 200 years back. "But as a philosophy," declared Pastor Sirchan, "we may easily trace the whole system back as far as ancient Greece. The Athenian scholar was perhaps the first to expound the doctrine in his vain attempt to eclipse the teaching of the Christian religion. And, from the days of Plato until now, the presumably wise have pounded hard against the church and the Scriptures in a determined effort to crush out Christian philosophy. The basic element in evolution is that point-blink denial of the Christian doctrine of instant creation, miraculous creation, Divine creation. The scientist claims that God did not speak this world into space, but that it always existed. He says that it was once a huge mass of faming liquid, dashing wildly through cold limitless space at a terrific speed for millions of years. In course of time, this wandering mass cooled down and became a fixed planet. Millions of years more clamped before any signs of life appeared upon it. The scorching sun poured down its heat into the pools of standing water, turning their surface into green slime, from which cooled the tiny insects, which after many years more became animals, and the animals by the same long drawn out process evolved into man. "Don't believe a word of it," thundered Pastor Stirachan. "The whole scheme is the devil's highway to the wilderness, where men forget, or blot from their memory the Creator, God. When students are given Well's Evolutionary Outline of History, it is painful to see how they turn to fambished kittens and lap it up like new milk. Once given a taste of it, it is hard to turn their minds from it. "People of intelligence should refuse to believe that their ancestors were primordial germs, the vegetable protoplasms, the brainless insects. People of intelligence should refuse to believe that the art of speech evolved from the grunt of a frog, the snarl of a beast, the bark of a monkey, God fearing men and women, by all means' should accept the Bible record of creation: that God spake and it was done. He commanded and it stood fast." ABYSSNIAN'BAPTIST CHURCH. The main auditorium was packed Sunday morning to hear the pastor's sermon on "The Value of a Vision" and the assistant prescheduled to a large overflow group in the lecture room. Rev. Marshall L. Shepard delivered a very inspiring sermon in the evening before about 1,200 people. Twenty-seed united with the church during the day and the offering amounted to $906.28. One of our good members donated $100 without any solicitation toward the establishment of an Old Folks' Home. The Friendly Society served dinner in the gym during the day and realized $78.45. This amount will go toward purchasing $300 more chairs for the lecture room. Dr. Powell will preach past Sunday morning in his own church and at $:30 P. M. at the Bother A. M. E. Church. He will administer the ordinance of baptism in the evening after a brief message by Rev. Shepard. More than 1,000 copies of the enlarged Advance were sold last Sunday. The committee which managed the pastor's lecture on Germany has reported to the church $11.65 realized from the same. ST. MARK'S M. E. CHURCH Dr. Wallace MacMullen, district superintendent of the New York Conference, was the speaker at the morning service Sunday. Text: St. John, 14th chapter and 8th verse. Theme: "Show Us the Father" At the evening service Rev. Raphael W. Stockman, pastor of Madison Avenue M. F. Church, preached an eloquent and graceful sermon. Rev. Stockman came to us in harmony with the interracial commission suggestion of an exchange of pulpits between colored and white churches. St. Mark's pastor, Dr. John W. Robinson, preached in Madison Avenue M. F. Church. The Sunday School was largely attended. The services of the Eppworth League were well attended and a very enjoyable program rendered.

Three white boys, two cornets and a drummer, resigned from the band and tried to create trouble among the other players because of the colored boy's presence. But Mr. Beer directed that band performances go on as before and that no student be included because of race or color. N. A. A. C. P. Helps Stop "Birth of Nation" Film in Hartford.

FISK UNIVERSITY A FEW MONTHS AGO the spot was turned upon Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., when it was announced that it had secured the first million for endowment fund created for a New institution of higher learning. A days ago Fisk University again held a spotlight when news was broad throughout the world that student university had precipitated a rise in campus because of dissatisfaction with the alleged Czar-like methods the president, who, it is charged, had tendency to lean a little too far to the Southern white man's method dealing with the Negro. THE MATTER, we believe, is untry enough to call for an impartial and the high investigation and until such an investigation is made the president, public, the alumni and the student would not do anything further to justify the institution. Fisk should be moved to continue its work of fighting Negro men and women in early careers in the future as it need them in the past. AFTER such an investigation, resident McKenzie is found not to proper executive for the school methods are found to tend to subjective, drown ambition and impure usefulness of the university, resignation should be demanded. A FEW MONTHS AGO the spotlight was turned upon Fisk University, in Nashville, Tenn., when it was announced that it had secured the first million dollar endowment fund created for a Negro institution of higher learning. A few days ago Fisk University again held the spotlight when news was broadcast throughout the world that students of the university had precipitated a riot on the campus because of dissatisfaction with the alleged Czar-like methods of the president, who, it is charged, has a tendency to lean a little too far toward the Southern white man's methods of dealing with the Negro. THE MATTER, we believe, is urgent enough to call for an impartial and thorough investigation and until such an investigation is made the president, the public, the alumni and the students should not do anything further to jeopardize the institution. Fisk should be saved to continue its work of fitting young Negro men and women for worthy careers in the future as it has fitted them in the past. AFTER such an investigation, if President McKenzie is found not to be the proper executive for the school, if his methods are found to tend to stifle initiative, drown ambition and impair the usefulness of the university, his resignation should be demanded.

EXPRESSED BY CONTEMPORARIES Standard Life Dead (from the Atlanta Independent.) There is no need of the race losing heart or condidence in itself; there is no wisdom in mourning always around the funeral bed of even a friend; but take heart and build a greater institution on its ruins. The failure of one man, or a group of men, is not the race's failure. This principal is true in all races—and no white man, or group of white men ever lose heart or faith even in themselves because one white man, or a group of white men fail. They take less courage—double their determination to build a greater thing than the one that failed. Failure is largely retribution to correct human beings and to show them how to succeed in larger and greater undertakings.

LETTERS Dr. Rawlins Answers "A Wee Indian" The Standard Life, like an individual, has passed, and there is no need of the Nero despairing or swallowing himself. We still have men, money and brains, and all we need is proper direction. The Standard's failure is only one of the failures that the race will continue to meet in its struggles upwards for its part of the world's wealth. The Italians in America and elsewhere never lost hope, and why should the proud and ambitious Nero race lose itself in despair because Mr. Perry grabbed off a few dollars of other people's money through the Service Company as an instrumentality. The public knows that the failure of the Standard was not due to any corporate action as such, but was brought about by the manipulations of the majority stockholders, led by its President Perry and his bone-head board of directors in an effort to get rich quick. The fellows simply loaned all the Standard's money to themselves, and when the loan was called, they were not able to meet their obligations. They turned over all they had to the Standard, which was about fifty per cent of the $700 million they had to the Standard failed just as do all concerns that are manipulated by one man in the interest of his associates for personal gain, to the detriment of the people and in violation of the trust imposed. Where do you suppose those great moral leaders like Bishops Williams, Jones and Scott, and the Messrs. Boyd, Isaac, Young, Lewis and others were when these manipulations were going on. Of course, they used to be more militant, and so much more militant in five years, and sang the song of vast riches for nothing. The white man never loses confidence in himself and turns to some other race to save him; he maintains confidence in himself and continues to fight and to rebuild where he lost. He regards himself as superior, and recognizes none other as able to help him; and we must rely upon our own resources and put into practice Mr. Adam's philosophy—"Stop destroying institutions to save men." Dr. Rawlins Answers "A West Indian" To the Editor of the Amsterdam News, Dear Sr: Your editorial page of Wednesday, February 11th, printed a letter with this caption "After Gervar—What?" and signed "A West Indian." Permit me therefore, space in your paper to state a few facts and thoughts relative to this letter and its writer. First: Why does not this writer sign his name? in a matter that is so universally discussed in Gervar, the estimate of his good or ill on the present and future status of the Negroes both in America and abroad, it seems to me the weight of any argument, especially in the form of a letter, is estimated by the facts presented, and the individual status both past and present of the person writing the letter. Those who read want to know in an argument such as this: What motives are back of the statements of the writer, in order that a proper conclusion may be made; is it envy, malice, a feeling of injury, insult, or approval and help of certain individuals he desires to "get" Or is it pure honest conviction, belief or knowledge of the facts in the case? Your editorial page of Wednesday, February 11 printed a letter with this emption "After Garvey What?" and signed "A West Indian. Permit therefore, space in your paper to state a law in and thoughts relative to this letter and its writ First: Why does not this letter sign his name? a matter that is so universally discussed as is Garvey, his programme, his methods, and his condition, and the estimate of his good or ill on the present and future status of the New World, in the weight of any matter, especially in the form of a letter, is estimated by the facts presented, and the individual status be past and present of the person writing the letter. Those who read want to know in an argument as this: What motives are back of the statement of the writer, in order that a proper conclusion be made; is it envy, malice, a feeling of person injury in the past, personal appraisal, approval, friendship of certain individuals he desires to "wear" or is it pure honest conviction, belief or knowledge of the facts in the case? In no other way can a proper estimate be made of the arguments of the writer. We must know writer. This can only be formed by individual artistry. This, the writer to write, approves, a friendship of certain individuals he desires to "wear" or is it pure honest conviction, belief or knowledge of the facts in the case? Why does he sign "A West Indian Does this throw any particular weight to hisclusion, or his statements"? Garvey, is believed by Negroes all over the West Thousands of American Negroes subscribe to programme and its methods. Then what opinion does the signing "A West Indian" does Does the writer centre in order because Mr. Garvey is of West Indian birth, only West Indian ages his methods and his programme, and that the only wise exception to the rule? This writer is just weekly in an editorial that Mr. Garvey has followed than any other Negro leader in world. This means surely not only West Indian but also native African and American Negroes. Thiak: "A West Indian" writes "that with (Mr. Garvey) removal as a hindrance to prejudice many former opponents will, if not co-operative, any rate not oppose. This is the climax of a whole letter. To me it gives the motive for a letter and the secret negotiations of the writer, suggests there be a recognition of the U. N. I. Garvey is good. Let us look like "A West Indian" comes to the white show. If this is of "A West Indian" it is very plain it is he) do not know that the U. N. I. membership. Marion Garvey will always be leader. His programme, his teaching methods (which were always honest) shall over their guide. In no other way can a proper estimate be made of the arguments of the writer. We must know the writer. This can only be found by knowing his name. This, the writer of the letter is apparently afraid to do, is it cowardice? Is he afraid of his past? He wishes us to appraise his letter, but not his personality. This I refuse to do, and so do all thinking readers of this letter signed "A West Indian." Second: Why does he sign "A West Indian"? Does this throw any particular weight to his conclusion, or his statements? Garvey writes as a philosophy, in belief that only alloy the world, of American Negroes subscribe to its programme and its method. Then what particular influence does the signing "A West Indian" denote? Does the writer desire to infer because Mr. Garvey is of West Indian birth, only West Indians approve his methods and his programme, and that the writer is the only wise exception to the rule? This is abured. The "Tattler" in last year's issue is editorially that Mr. Garvey "has today a larger personal following than any other Negro leader in the world." This means surely not only West Indians, but also native Africans and American Negroes. MARIE. A West Indian writer. That will be (Mr. Garvey) removal as a hindrance to prejudice, many former opponents will, if not coopernent, at any rate not oppose. This is the climax of the whole letter. To me it gives the motive for the letter and the secret aspirations of the writer. He regents there be a organization of the U. N. I. A. Garvey is good. Let us like like "A West Indian come in and "beow" the whole world. If this is the doubt of "A West Indian" and it is very pungent that it be) does not know the spirit of the U. N. I. A. membership. Marmie Garvey will always be the leader. His programme, his teaching, and over his methods (which were always honest) shall ever be their guide. K. KLLIOTT RAWLING Feb. 16, 1826 4 West 1800 St. :: Great Books :: :: Great Books :: I. OTHO GRAY NOLD shelves over the door of the library there was an inscription of four words—"Medicine for the soul." Books are the silent teachers ever ready to respond to our moods and give comfort and counsel. Their artillery is experience, their machinery is thought, their legislation is contentment. The taste for good books is a shield against the relations of life and a cultural element of surpassing value. We have intercourse with superior minds, chiefly through books. It is always a delightful event to contact a vein of thought that is richer and deeper than our own; with the living this pleasure may be rare and transitory, but with a book it is happily permanent and grows more enjoyable as the years broaden our outlook and ripen our understanding. Remembering the pithy sentence of Bacon. "Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested." I am going to list several books of commanding merit—works that have stood the acid test of time and passed with honor, therefore books that you should read and feel at home with. "David Copperfield" was the favorite production of its author, Charles Dickens. It is a remarkably well executed novel, written in the autobiographical form, and is full of that magnetic quality called human interest. Through its pages many and varied characters, raging from the soak-like strength of Mr. Pogotty to the picturequeur Mr. McAweber. Although possibly overdrawn, such creations as Wilkins, Micawber and Uriah Heap are not quickly forgotten. It is a book that touches the heart closely and is a real milestone of literature "a novel of outstanding worth, it is a pleasant picture of English country life of a century ago, but much of it belongs to everywhere and every year. I consider the character Elizabeth Bennett as one of the most attractive girls ever put between the covers of fiction. "Tranbock," by Scott, is a reproduction of the book of Richard Coeur De Lion, when chivalry was abroad and Robin Hood and his merry outcasts were at quarterself while the proud Sheriff of Nottingham rocked his brains trying to evolve a way to arrest them. Its names have the charm of novelty and familiarise the reader with an important period of history that seems romatic at this late day. "Quincoln," the masterpiece of history, is the greatest book of Spain, and has a universal reputation. If it is a scribe on chivalry and was written when that colorful institution was at its end, "It pathetically smiled chivalry out of the modern world." There are tedious passages, there are judiciously skipped. Such fictional and enduring book should be read by everyone. "Treasure Island," by Stevenson, is one ratting good yarn about pirates and buried gold, written in a truly masterful manner. For years I neglected reading it, believing it was the usual cut-and-dried narrative of adventure, but A Man With A Man Without a Party By KELLY MILLER We have all heard of a man without a party is a new sume that I enjoy this siggur dred millions of my fellow some days ago the startling Has Been Read Out of the the announcement interested was the jim-crow section of the trict of Columbia that perfor of a private individual from a of American politics.

We have all heard of a man without a country; but a man without a party is a new thing under the sun. I presume that I enjoy this singular distinction among the hundred millions of my fellow citizens. I read in the press some days ago the startling announcement: "Kelly Miller Has Been Read Out of the Republican Party." I conceive the announcement interested me musingly. I find that it was the jim-crow section of the State Committee of the District of Columbia that performed the first act of expulsion of a private individual from a political party in the history of American politics. I had supposed from my study of democratic polity that the matter of granting or withholding support to or from any measure, person or party rested wholly with the judgment and conscience of the individual. That every citizen was left unquestioned liberty of decision concerning the consistency of political adherence. That he might support different parties at different times or select persons on different tickets at the same election without discipline or censure. I have read somewhere in political history that Horace Gresley, Charles Bemmer and Chancery M. Depow led a revolt against the re-election of President Grant in 1872. I can recall the marquess's defence against Bemmer in 1884. True and tried Republicans, by the time of thousands, rallied to the standard of Grevor Cleveland against the re-election candidate. During the free silver campaign of 1886 the Gold Democrats who did not give out and out support to William HeKley organized the Gold Democrats Party with Palmer and Becher as standard bearers merely distinguished auxiliary of the Towards, because of the monitor and monitor of the Democratic party, who set the time declared that "Bemmer, the regular nominee of the party, should be knocked into a coohed hot. Suppose Woodrow Wilson had then been read out the party, there would have been a different politician to tell. In 1883 the vast majority of the Republican Party belted the Republican total. There was left only a small share of the民主ists, to carry Utah and Vermont. And this vindictive party then read out of its told Roosevelt and his expert they would not have been a queer man. And Bemmer, Crev --- one lucky day I found myself lost to the world with a copy of "Treasure Island" in my hands. It is the best tale of buccaneers that you can ever hope to read. "Jane Eyre" is a celebrated novel of *genuine* power. Though of simple plot it is so skillfully written as to be exceedingly interesting. While not without defects, it is an appealing book of zeal, and will always be read and admired by lovers of good literature. The "Odysseus" of Homer is a nobly impressive book instinct with the pure Greek style. About the old Greeks was a heroic atmosphere of romance, intellectuality and physical prowess, all of which is faithfully mirrored in this great poem. To know the sargs and thunder of the Odysseus best of the ancient stories. Be sure to read Butcher and Langa's translation. "The Scarlet Letter," by Hawthorne, is an important novel with a dramatic climax that has seldom been excellent. The style of this book will appeal to the thoughtful reader. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" is not a thriller, but a bourbon, but its effect is convincing. It is imbued with deep feeling I deploys a phase of past American life that it seems almost impossible to believe could exist. Palgrave's "Golden Treasury" is perhaps the best assembly ever made of verse in English. The level of poetry Tom will hardly find a poem that does not apposite with the true spirit of poetry. I cannot write a better conclusion than the following quotation from Godwin: "In a well-written book we are presented with the maturest reflections or the happiest flights of fancy of a mind of uncommon excellence. It is impossible that we can be much accustomed to such compassions without attaining to some resemblance to them." man without a country; but a thing under the sun. I preser distinction among the humiliitizens. I read in the press announcement: "Kelly Miller Republican Party." I coness me musingly. I find that in the State Committee of the Dismed the first act of expulsion political party in the history supposed from my study of matter of granting or withholdmeasure, person or party rested and conscience of the individual, questioned liberty of decision political adherence. That he is at different times or select the same election without dis they would be today had such a merciless fate befallen them. In 1900 I supported Harding against my good personal friend, Ashbie Hawkins, of Baltimore, who had not only betted the party, but had been elected for Senator from Maryland, with the support of defending the Republican candidate. But now behind Ashbie Hawkins sitting down in the kingdom with Perry Howard and James A. Cobb while I with my whiteness Adelity must be out east. During the last election thousands of Democrats voted for Cotton, thousands of Republicans, mainly colored, voted for Davis, white — abolitionist of — Republican. White — abolitionist of — Republican voted for the Republican. The Republican board of the United States Senate have undertaken to exclude the rural district Democrats from participation in the party caucus and the special office. The election was based on no more open this week during the campaign, so upon that constituents refused to support the party's legislative program in the Senate, Senator Bailer, the chairman of the Republican National Committee, in an address made in Boston, Jun. 27th, and down he "I have no thought of a system of discipline which seeks to enclose on the rights of any man or woman to aspire or stand for office or to limit their rights to propose or advance legislative or party programs. But man who is elected to the public chamber must stand on that platform." Mr. Butler's policy is reasonable enough, so far as political ethics runs. But the State Committee of the District of Columbia were too precipitant, and my elected colleague was not willing to their要求. If I were so minded to stir up mischief, I would call upon Mr. Butler to discipline the local committee for violating essential party procedure as laid down by him. I was not elected to any office on a Republican platform, and therefore an amateur should discipline according to the decree of Mr. Butler, the law given of the Republican organization between conventions. The Baltimore Afro-American states that there were half million colored citizens who left the folds of the party during the last campaign; but I alone am selected for retailillary war. Surely the parsons upon whom the tower of Siloam fell were not guilty beyond all the rest that dwell in Jerusalem. Senator Wheeler of Montana ran a ticket with La Follette without losing standing or regularly with the Democratic party. Wm. H. Lewis, nationally known and nationally honored Negro Republican, led the Negro Democratic reinforcement during the last campaign. A campaign which might have suggested a new rendering of an old song: "See the mighty host advancing, Lee's leading on." I wonder if Mr. Butler has instructed the State Committee of Massachusetts, his home state, to excommunicate the Ex-Asst. Attorney General from the Republican party and of the nation? Indeed, comparisons are odious. If my sins were less, why should my punishment be so much more severe? But I have one great consolation in being cast outside of the fold of the local Republican party as constituted by the state committee of the District of Columbia. This action places me in company with ninety-nine and sixteens per cent of citizens, even those of Republican permission, in jurisdiction of a county school teacher, and give dollar each who will sweater that be ever voted for the State Committee every citizen of Washington one or for any state which it has ever submitted to the franchise of the people. This organization came into power by raping the rights of the people, such as they were, and by skillful manipulation and maneuvering so as to secure recognition from the National Republican Committee. Every honest citizen of Washington knows this to be the fact, and will acknowledge it if forced to a frank expression. A handful of highly respectable citizens of Washington, white and colored, in order to put an end to the unseemly quadrennial squabble usurped the rights of the people, after the manner of the Southern political protesters. I acknowledge my share of the guilt. It was a game of unjustifiable moral ethics and of doubtful political ethics. Like the Apostle Paul, I have been a victim of the others astonned Stephen. And now, I must take my medicine like a man. My punishment is deserved. The penalty is light in comparison with the sin. Let us for a moment consider the competence of my excommunicator, as well as the illegality of the act. Behold, a political party without a vote: and a state committee without a state. The Republican party in the District of Columbia is like a political party in the cast a single vote for Couldee in the last election. It does not elect a solitary official by whom the community is governed. It has so far proved to be wholly inefficient in advising or persuading the President to allow them to allot local patronage. Its only notable achievements during the four years of delegates to the National Republican Convention and the expulsion of one who showed symptoms of political independence. Now we will consider the head and front of my offense. I was elected, selected, designated or appointed by the State Committee last Spring a delegate to the nominating convention. I accepted the assignment, and put in nomination my friend Mr. James A. Cobb, for delegate to the Cleveland convention. Hon. Kimmett J. Scott succeeded the nomination. Mr. Cobb but not the nominee. Jones, the shared candidate of the machine, got the rest. Now Tom Jones is a jolly good fellow whom we all like. He urged me to become a member of the local campaign committee. I gave him my tentative acceptance, contingent upon Mr. Goodidge's declared attitude on the Ku Klux Klan in his forthcoming letter of acceptance. The message came but no word of condemnation of the hooded man. I waited for a later campaign utterance, but there came forth only silence, and still more silence. In the mean time, Mr. Matthew wrote me requesting my membership to the Committee. I gave a call to the I did not devote sensible to continue competition with the political campaign. In my writings I have always discussed public questions analytically. I try to deal with pending concerns with impartial and to PAGE Book by MARY WHITT "Christianity and the By J. H. Oldham.

But let no one think this reads like a missionary publication. It is of broad, humanitarian interest and recognizes the fact that race prejudice is rife in Protestantism, and that the Catholic Cathedral and the Moslem Mosque are more democratic than the Evangelical Church. It is an effort to get at the reason for race prejudice, to describe something of its history, and to propose certain practical steps for its diminution. "The fundamental issues on racial relation are not ethnological or biological but ethical. Our difficulties do not arise primarily from the fact that differences exist. They are created by false ideas in our own minds." This is the keynote of the volume. The chap are then open up largely to probing the issues we how far they are false and what truth, if any, is in them. The author brings out with clearness the sufferings of men under humiliating conditions. It is not what a man ALL CLASSES JOIN TO HONOR LINCOLN Lincoln's Birthday was sig- ally honored last Thursday by men of all races and stations in life. Down at Walton Square James Welden Johnson, secretary of the National Association of Colored People, laid a broken forkal chain at the base of the Lincoln statue. "The broken chain." Mr. Johnson explained, symbols for us the breaking of our shackles by the great Lincoln. The same service Paul Robinson, the great actor, read the Emancipation Proclamation.

According to this test Davis rushed first, LaFollette second, and Coolidge third. I so believed and so stated. I may have mistaken, but I followed the light intelligence and conscience as that I did. The vast majority of my fellow citizens did not agree with me. But seven million majority cannot alter a fundamental conviction. Mr. Coolidge with the granite conscience of New England will appreciate this, even if the State Committee of the District of Columbia cannot. I did not vote against Mr. Coolidge for the same reason that the State Committee did not vote him. He simply because I had no vote simply because I closed the right of conscience and of free speech under guarantee of the Constitution. For this I am appalled from the Republican party by a precarious and important organization calling itself the State Committee of the D. C. If I took the matter seriously, would appeal the action to B. R. and to President Coolidge himself. I shall in the future as in the past continue to discuss public measures and shall approve or disapprove Republican or Democratic policies and candidates according to the dictates of my best conscience and judgment. I feel under moral obligation to those who do me the courtesy to read and appreciate my utterances, not to be misled by my own convictions or to mislead the expedients of political grievances in which I shall do without let or bind the State Republican Committee of the District of Columbia. In this connection the propriety of school men taking part in political activity has been widespread. This shows a narrow minded attitude concerning the function of the educator. It is the privilege and duty of any American citizen who he has an any worth while idea of the public questions to release them for the people. President Elliott of Hawaii was proferred the ambassadorial to Great Britain; President Michigan Murray Butler was vice-president candidate on the Republican ticket in 1812. Attorney General Stone was called to the Cabinet from the despair of Columbia Law School. President Angel of Michigan University was made ambassador to Turkey. Senator Bingham of Connecticut was elected from the Tusky County. The president of a university was automatically proclaimed as the President of Connecticut for the last election, and the highest function of the educator man is to help direct public thought and opinion on the way it should be conducted. --- Chat THE OVINGTON "The Race Problem" The George Doran Company, $64 Price, $1.76.

If a man loses half his crop by flood it is hard, but it is not insupportable as it is when a conqueror takes half his crop from him in taxes, lording it over him in the meanwhile. The unchristian, petty insults that the white practices against the black, the author condemns in no uncertain words. He scores such men as Prof. Joseph of Dermouth, whose book I reviewed last summer, who would have the white race deliberately deny the advantages of civilization to the colored. To settle things by the callous pursuit of material interests and the pursuit of superior forms, says. "and men by reasoned appeal to justice and equity are two irreversible modes of procedure and the world must make its choices between them. The one leads as an ordered and civilized society, the other to assemby and ruin." Mr. Oikham gives us five practical suggestions: 1. The conversion of our own minda. 2. The growth of right knowledge on racial matters. 3. Co-operation between the races. 4. The creation of a right public opinion. 5. The spreading of the Christian gospel. These are vital suggestions and white practical are difficult enough to carry out. To achieve this, we must racial masters. Mr. Othman points out, some of the vital errors of our scientific, especially our psychological, is no simple matter. Scientists as well as other folk think in propaganda. They test the ability of the colored child on a basis of the capability of the white child. To create a right public opinion, Who has not amassed a large number of eyes to see its impossibility? To spread the gospel. One may question that. Apparently the only Western nation free from race prejudice, anti-imperialistic, is austria. Certainly in those parts of the United States, where the church flourishes the most, there is the most racial intolerance. It is likely that if the doors of the church were to close for the sake of there would not be a white difference between the relations of colored and white. But the appeal to men's humanity is always worth while, and this book in same, kindly fashion insists on the fundamental doctrine of all great religions, that all men are equal in the sight of God. With this truth he has been the Oldman, the Othman, the relation of the English speaking people to the colored races and for the most part argues wisely and convincingly regarding what he sees.
