DR. GEO. CANNON DEAD COLONEL LITTLE RESIGNS Dr. Moton Rings True In an impassioned address, delivered in Washington last Wednesday night, in connection with the Hampton-Tuskegee drive for educational funds for Negro youth, Dr. Robert Russa Moton, successor of Booker T. Washington, and principal of Tuskegee Institute, answered the critics who have for so long directed savage attacks, as to good faith and manhood, against the Tuskegee educator. Furthermore, Dr. Moton announced, in no uncertain terms, a policy of full manhood for the Negro, which would be satisfactory to the most ardent lover of justice, full citizenship, equality, and unity for all Americans. It must have been disconcerting to the enemies of Dr. Moton to hear him stand unswervingly for full manhood for his racial fellow men; and to those who have given attentive ear to the hue and cry which has been so often raised against the successor of Booker T. Washington, slight shame must have come that they judged Moton guilty until proven innocent. This pen sketches no brief for Dr. Moton; nor has it ever sought to give aid and comfort to criticisms unless the requisite facts amply sustained the allegations upon which criticisms were founded. In the cast of Dr. Moton, however, it appears that he has fought a good fight: that he has not sold out the rights of fellow citizens of color for the sake of personal glory; and that, quite to the contrary, sacrifice and suffering have marked each accomplishment of his efforts in the Far South. If there is aught to prove contrariwise, then we are from Missouri. To have added to these difficulties the hecklings and the jibes of carping critics who had their wares merely hanging on a shoestring is nothing less than to have invoked persecution—a baneful practice from which the race suffers so gloriously that we should be the last ones of all to resurrect its withering fires. From the facts at hand Moton, either in Alabama or in Massachusetts, stands for the same attributes for which the race is daily asking—full manhood, full participation in America's progress, and the full protection of all American institutions. Such a policy should encourage our group, both North and South. It should promote sympathy for the struggling districts of the South, where, in order for a black man to stand for manhood, it is frequently necessary for him to jeopardize his life, happiness and property. Lastly, it should, in some measure, strengthen the bond which exists between the black North and the black South, aiding them to cleave unto each other; for, in the final analysis, they are but terminal wings of a people whose cause is a common one, and whose salvation must be sought by a common means. Self-Defense Plea Frees Frank Kenny Found Not Guilty When Arraigned for Felonious Frank J. Kenny, 25, 165 West 130th street, was found not guilty in the Heights Court Monday morning by Magistrate Glatameyer on a charge of felonious assault preferred by Louis Gripo, white, 2453 Eighth avenue. Kenny pleaded self-defense. Through his counsel, Attorney C. W. McDonald. It was brought out that Gripo and two of his companions attacked Kenny in a poolroom at 2359 Eighth avenue, of which he is a manager, when Kenny remonstrated with Gripo for dropping a tennis ball on the pool table. Kenny said that when the three attacked him kicking him severely on the chin, he drew a penkulife he used for working on cue tipe and defended himself. Gripo was stabbed in the left arm and the back. He was taken to Harlem Hospital where his wounds were treated. "KEEPING FIT" By Dr. E. Elliott Rawlins, On Editorial Page. 1921 ACCIDENT PROVES FATAL TO NOTED N. J. PHYSICIAN The entire country will be shocked to learn of the death of Dr. George E. Cannon, at his late residence, 354 Pacific avenue, Jersey City, on Sunday last, shortly after midnight. Just one week had elapsed since the Doctor had a fall from the City Line Bus, almost directly in front of his home, having just arrived in town from Philadelphia where he had been to attend the Alumni Association of Lincoln University. How the accident happened is not yet altogether clear. The driver of the vehicle went on and no one knew that Dr. Cannon had fallen from it and was lying in the street until a neighbor passing by recognized him. He was assisted across the street to his home. This was about 3 o'clock in the morning and the streets were clear of pedestrians. Dr. G. K. Dickinson, one of the greatest physicians in the state, was called and gave medical aid, and up to Sunday evening much hope was held out for his complete recovery. About midnight he complained of feeling very ill, and Dr. Dickinson and Dr. James R. Stroud were again summoned. However, he failed to rally and died soon after. Dr. Cannon was born in Carlisle, South Carolina, a little over fifty years ago, and came to Jersey City shortly after becoming of age. Diligently he set about to acquire an education. He is a graduate from Lincoln University, and received his M.D. at the New York Pathological College in 1900. Dr. Cannon was regarded as a specially skilled physician in obstetrics and was often consulted by doctors of both races. Dr. Cannon also was employed by the Jersey Central Railroad to help handle many of their accident cases. In (Continued on Page 2.) THE NEW YORK Harlem Should Have a Negro Judge Attach Your Signature to This Petition to Governor Smith to Sign the Billups Court Bill and Mail It Today The Billups Municipal Court Bill, dividing the present Seventh District of the Municipal Court of the City of New York, has been passed by both Houses of the Legislature and is now before you for your approval. The Billups Bill is of the utmost importance to the 200,000 or more Negro citizens residing within the district, and its outcome is watched by Negroes throughout the State and Nation, because it will afford them the opportunity of securing representation on the Municipal Court Bench enjoyed by other groups constituting large proportions of the New York City population. In its last election, Chicago, Illinois, elects a Negro to the Municipal Court Bench in a city-wide election, giving him over 500,000 votes. This is not a question of partisan politics because the measure was supported in both Houses of the Legislature by Democrats and Republicans and is looked upon favorably by all fair-minded citizens of all races. Negro voters in Harlem have broken all party lines in supporting your candidacy because they felt that you held out to them a greater opportunity for advancement and usefulness to the State. (Additional signatures may be attached to this petition on plain paper.) EXTRA POLICEMAN SHOT IN POOLROOM While engaged in rounding up policy players, Detective Joseph Anselmini, attached to the Special Service Squad, was shot in the neck by a prisoner, who has escaped. The wounded officer was rushed to Harlem Hospital, where he is in a serious condition. Anselmini had just arrested a man in a poolroom at 145th street and Seventh avenue, and had taken him to the sidewalk, when he broke away and dashed back up the stairs, with the officer in pursuit. Inside the poolroom, the man drew a revolver and fired at Anselmini. Patrolman F. J. Wardman, who was downstairs, rushed up into the poolroom, but the assailant had escaped. The building was surrounded by officers, as it is believed the man is hiding nearby. To Governor Alfred E.

Marshall Drops Dead in Montreal Frank Price, Another Cef Club Founder, Succumbs to indigestion James L. Marshall, who formerly owned the Marshall Hotel, in 53d street, dropped dead in Montreal, Friday. His brother, Dr. George M. Marshall, a dentist of this city, brought the body back to the city Tuesday, and funeral services will be held Wednesday at 1 p. m. in St. Philip's Church. Mr. Marshall has been in Canada for the past eight years. His wife, Mrs. Lillian A. Marshall, survives him. He will be buried in St. Michael's Cemetery. He was one of the original founders of the Clof Club. Funeral services for Frank T. Price, one of the founders of the Clof Club, who died March 21 in Harlem Hospital of acute indigestion, were held Sunday in Walter Memorial Baptist Church, with the pastor, Rev. J. D. Buhell, officiating. He was often ill while making a speech to the grand masters of New York. Several lodges, including the Hiram Lodge, Masone, Medina Temple, Myrtle Krine, Salon Men't Leagues and Ivankhe Commandery turned out at the funeral. He was born in Sierra Leone, West Africa, about 60 years ago, but came to America at an early age. Resignation To Take Effect At Early Date Roach Hearing on Larceny Charge William Marshall Alleges He Refused to Refund Deposit of $90 William Roach, 41, 2348 Seventh avenue, real estate owner, was haled into court as president of the Roach Housecleaning Company to answer a charge of withholding $90 from William Marshall, 60 West 129th street. He pleaded not guilty and was held in $1,000 bail for a hearing on April 8. Marshall, in his complaint, alleges that he rented the apartment in which he now lives from the Roach Housecleaning Company, paying $90 a month rent and $90 as deposit to Joseph H. Sweeney, cashier for the concern, receiving a receipt for same. On Jan. 28 of this year the Roach Housecleaning Company, he said, transferred its holdings to the Ramsay Holding Company. He went to the latter company and a written statement was given to him, he said, that the Ramsay Holding Company had not received the $90 deposit in taking over the property. The company, he also declares, said that it doesn't want a deposit and is willing to let have the $90. He went to Roach, the complaint continues, but the latter "has refused and neglected to return it." An affidavit, signed by Sweeney, alleges that Marshall's statement regarding the deposit is true. Hayes Receives Medal Awarded Last Spring Just before the Cunard liner Aquitania set sail yesterday, Roland Hayes, who is leaving for another European, tour, received the Spingarn Medal, awarded him last spring while he was abroad. The presentation was made by Walter Damroesch, conductor of the New York Symphony Orchestra. NEW CITY. N. Y. April 6.

Bootlegging Cigar Stores Padlocked Three "cigar stores" which operated as "speak-easles" for the sale of liquor were ordered padlocked by Federal Judge Bondy for a period of three months. The court also fined the leaseholder of the three stores, Nathan R. Goldgraben, $1,000 for each place. The stores were at 568 and 573 Lenox avenues and 3096 Magnolia avenue. Goldgraben pleaded guilty to violating the prohibition law. According to John M. Cashin, Assistant United States Attorney, the stores have been operating as "speak-outs" for three years. 16 PAGES Complete in Two Sections 3c.

Moses, pastor, is to be auctioned under foreclosure proceedings by Joseph P. Day, auctioneer, on April 14. The foreclosure proceeding was started by Mrs. Fannie White, who advanced $60,000 on the third mortgage when the church failed to keep up the interest payment and collections. The church was bought from the Third Church of Christ, Scientist, which holds a second mortgage of $64,000, while a first mortgage for $90,000 is held by the New York Mutual Life Insurance Company. It is doubted whether enough will be realized from the sale to pay off all the indebtedness which, with an additional $3,900 due Mrs. White, amounts to about $116,000. It is believed that the building will be turned into a theatre. "Colonel Little's Resignation" An Editorial on Page 16. tion for colored officers, as well as lack of co-operation from the State Adjutant General's office. Col. Little announced his resignation at a meeting of non-commissioned officers at the armory Sunday afternoon, to take effect as soon as he Col. Little served as Major under Col. Hayward in France and was decorated with the Croix de Guerre and the Distinguished Service Medal. He had been with the regiment since its formation in 1917. A petition is being circulated by members of the regiment asking Gov. Smith to ask Col. Little to reconsider his resignation. "While a Negro colonel of the 269th Infantry is something to be desired in the future," said the petition, "it would be unwise to permit Col. Little to resign at this time when he is engaged in the important work of making the regiment one of the best in the National Guard." Col. Little is wealthy and it is said that he spent freely his own money for the improvement of the regiment. Speculation is rife as to who his successor will be. Three qualifications are necessary, it is pointed out. for the post: Money, influence, and military knowledge, all three of which Col. Little had. Recomly Adjutant-General C. W. Berry made a trip to Chicago to inspect the Eighth Illinois, which is officered entirely by Negroes. This was done following the visit of a delegation of Negroes to Gen. Berry, asking him for all colored officers. Gen. Berry is said to have promised them to make the 269th an all Negro resident at the time. There is a persistent rumor to the effect that all the white officers have resigned. DETECTIVES DIVORCES, INVESTIGATIONS, Est.

Sunday by Appointment Telephone Brandhurst 8362 KKK PLANNED TO CUT NEGRO JOURNALIST TO PIECES C. F. Richardson, Publisher of the Houston, Tex., Informer, Marked for Brutal Murder. Reports received from Houston, Texas, by the N. A. A. C. P., indicate that it was at one time the plan of the local Ku Klux Klan to hire a Negro newspaper publisher into a doctor's office, cut him in small pieces and carry the restins off, each Klansman asking a small part of the body. Testimony to this effect was given in a suit involving the Klan, according to an account published in the Houston, Texas, Post Dispatch of March 20. George B. Kimber Jr., a former high official of the Klan, is reported to have testified as follows: "McCall was obsessed with an idea of getting rid of a Negro newspaper publisher by the name of Richardson and at times suggested to me plans to get rid of him. One fellow suggested that we get the Negro up in a doctor's office and cut him to pieces and then each Klanman carry down a piece of McCall's McClinton jumped at the idea." Kimbo said he would not be positive who suggested the scheme. Kimbro then testified concerning intentions of an alleged Klan grand jury at Wharton to "get rid" of Richardson. The grand jury was to issue a subpoena to Richardson on the pretext of questioning him about something published in his paper, Kimbro declared. Richardson was to be brought to Wharton in the hands of a sheriff. Two men, known as "crack shots," were to be placed at secret points in the court house, armed with rifles. The sheriff was to bring him across the court house and at a gyrin the signal step aside and permit the rifmen to shoot down Richardson. Mr. C. F. Richardson is publisher of the Houston Informer, a colored weekly. EXAMS SAVE DENTAL STUDENT SENTENCE Theodore W.

Meantime he is on parole in custody of William McEroy, probation officer. --- Nothing creates domestic discord quicker than an attack of indigestion, and nothing gets rid of indigestion quicker than Bisurated Magnesia. No man can be sweet tempered, good natured or even fair minded when his stomach is constantly sick, pour, gassy, and upset with after-eating distress. If your husband has stomach trouble neither scold nor pity him, but help him by seeing that he has a supply of Bisurated Magnesia (either powder or tablet) constantly at hand. A teaspoonful of powder or two tables taken in a little water after meals will instantly neutralize the acids in his stomach that are causing his trouble and he can bring his meals with no more fear of indigestion than Bisurated Magnesia in the special form of Magnesia used by thousands to neutralize stomach acidity and quickly overcome indigestion—do not confuse with Milk, Carbonate, Block or Citrate of Magnesia. Insist on Bisurated. Its action is safe, prompt and sure and it can be obtained at small cost from any reliable drug store. Held Up, Blakeney and Cop Catch Man John W. Blakeney, Jr., of 218 West 141st street, has received a letter from Police Commissioner Richard E. Enright commending Blakeney's and Patrolman Böwe's of the 13th A Precinct action in apprehending George Swan, white, age 21, of Philadelphia, after he had held up and robbed Blakeney with a gun and blackjack. Blakeney was robbed in West 130th street, near Fifth avenue, on March 14. Ten minutes later he saw Swan and summoned Patrolman Bowe, who captured him. The prisoner was sentenced to 18 months in the reformatory, after which he is supposed to go to Singapore. Blakeney told a reporter for The Amsterdam News that when he and Patrolman Bowe took the prisoner to the police station he gave his age as 21, but that the officer in charge at the time changed it to 20. This probably accounts for his retaliatory sentencing. Commissioner Enright has been notified of this fact. Slayer of Thomas Gives Himself Up Upon surrendering to Underkaker Coyle, 19th street and Third avenue, James West, 21. 2113 Eighth avenue, alleged "layer of Ralph Thomas, 43. 158 East 10th street was handed over to Detective James Lynch of the East 10th street station.

Poles pleaded not guilty and said that Stein was a friend of his and had been visiting him for some months past. CAUGHT FLEEING WITH GIRL OF 8 YRS Armatead Hackney, aged 35, of a West 129th street, was sent to the workhouse for three months, when found guilty of impaling the morals of an eight-year-old girl.

State Dept. of Labor Studies Health and Working Conditions of Children State Dept. of Labor Studies Health and Working Conditions of Children State Industrial Commissioner James A. Hamilton, in a statement just issued on the results of a study of the health of working children, oints out that nearly one-half of the fourteen and fifteen-year-old boys and girls included in the survey were found to have physical defects which were being aggrivated by the work which they were doing. For example, there was John, a hustling and ambitious little chap, who had hernia, and whose work involved the lifting of heavy bundles. Then there was Annie, a bright little miss, who, with an advanced case of flat feet, was found working as a messenger girl in a department store, her duties requiring her to step lively for many hours. Commissioner Hamilton says the study included 412 working boys and girls under fifteen years of age in New York City and was conducted at the city's two continuation schools. Under the law working children who are not high school graduates, must attend these continuation schools at least four hours a week. The study was under the direction of the Bureau of Women in Industry of the State Department of Labor, and is the first effort in this State to find out the relationship of the physical equipment of working children to the physical requirements of the jobs in which they are engaged. Each child received a thorough physical examination, his work school and social history was acertained, and he was made a subject of careful observation while at work. The Industrial Commissioner's statement goes on: "On the personal side it was found that the New York City child who goes to work at the age of fourteen in American born but of foreign parentage; that one child out of every four comes from a home where one or both parents are dead or the parents are separated. Almost half of the children entered industry because money was needed at home; but a second very large group went to work because they were disatisfied with what school had to offer them. When asked as to how they spent their leisure time all but twelve reported they went to the movies, some going as often as three times a week. As to play outside of their girls' hours, practically none of the girls had a form of recreation, though some of the boys went regularly to a amusement slum. The desire which many of these children have for more education is emphasized by the fact that in addition to working every day almost one-sighth of the children attended night school. "On the work side the study revealed the restlessness and instability of working children of this age. The average work history of the children was nine months during which short period each child had held on an average of two jobs; over one-quarter of the child had had three positions and one had had four positions. Wages centered at about $12 only 3 per cent of the children received less than $18. Half of the children worked 44 hours, though 6 per cent, contrary to the law, worked more than 48 hours. Boys had the active, girls the sedentary jobs. One-third of the boys were on their feet the entire work day; one-quarter of the girls sat the whole of their work day. One-fourth of the children were provided with wholly inadequate chairs, in most cases stools. Only one might be considered working on what might be considered dangerous operation; however, 11 percent of the children reported they had received some injury during the course of their employment. "On the health side, the number of physical defects for each child, averaged 2.4. Almost one-fifth of the children had some visual defect one-third had dental defects, one-eighth had enlarged tonsils, a per cent of the girls had thyroid enlargement; 4 per cent of the children had heart affections. Tuberculosis was found in 1 per cent with lung abnormality in 2 per cent. Overweight was much more common than underweight. Approximately 10 per cent of the children though they had been working at nine months had not yet passed their school. This is of significance not only because of the additional demands upon the powers of the immature child to adjust to striking mental and physical changes, but because the immature boys were found universally to have strength tests below the average. It is a serious finding that children under sixteen years of age begin their industrial career with uncorrected physical defects. It is of even greater significance to learn that of these defects half are being accentuated and made worse by the requirements of the jobs the children are on. Half of the children with a flat foot condition had to be on their feet the greater part of their work day: one-quarter of the children with defective eyesight worked under eye strain; over one-half of the children with heart affections worked under an excessive nerve strain. Subjecting the child under sixteen to conditions of work which tend to break rather than strengthen his physical equipment would seem to be false economy. "Fortunately, through existing co-operation of the health, labor, and educational departments, and the valuable aid of the many agencies which are looking after the interests of our children, these conditions are being uncovered and efforts made to eliminate them." Minn's Companions in Slaying Sentenced Norman Robinson, 20, 187; Third avenue, and Harry Whitman, 18, 200 East 100th street, confessed companions of Ernest Mimma, slayer of Detective Chester Hagan, were sentenced to the penitentiary by Judge Colin in Bronx County Court, the former to seven and a years, and the latter to from four to ten years. All three worn on the way to hold up a crap game on West 180th street when they were halted by Hagan, who was then shot in the abdomen by Mimma. Mimma is in Sing Sing pending appeal from his sentence of death. Mrs. Eva Rawlings, 114 West 139th street, failed to recover damages in her suit against Edward Tully, owner of the premises at 384 Sixth avenue. Mrs. Rawlings alleged that she was injured when she fell into an open coal hole on the sidewalk, and charged Tully and the Pittsburgh Coal Co. with the negligence.

TAMMANY HALL DIVIDED ON LEADER Insurgent Negro Democrats Condemn Commissioner Morton in Petition Insurgent Negro Democrats Condemn Commissioner Morton in Petition Say He Has Not Used His Influence to Rid Haricent of Criminal Element Also Assail Chappelle John R. McNiel, former supervisor of the Eighth Avenue Public Market and district leader, was unanimously endorsed as leader of the United Colored Democracy by hundreds of insurgent Democrats at a meeting held at the John R. McNiel Headquarters 112 West 130th street, Thursday evening. Resolutions were passed consuring Attorney Ferdinand Q. Morton, present leader, on the ground that he is "too haughty and exclusive" in his manners, and criticizing his closest adviser, Everett T. Chapel, in a statement issued by the insurgents and signed by McNiel are charges, some of which read: 1. Mr. Morton is utterly without social qualities which make a leader or easily accessible to his constituents and responsive to their needs, such as every partisan group has, and looks to his leader to promote and protect. He is not sociable by disposition; he is impatient in contact with his constituents, and he is exclusive in his manners, and it is difficult to meet him in reasonable hours for the consideration of matters of party concern and moment. 2. He is not only unsocial and exclusive with the members of his own organization, but he is unresponsive to the requests of other organizations of the party than his own for the advice and connexion, in public addresses and otherwise, which are naturally to be expected of a man in his exalted position. "3. His close advisers, especially his personal representative, Mr. Sperett T. Chappelle, are an unusual and unsympathetic and aloof in manner in dealing with the membership as Mr. Morton himself, indeed, Mr. Chappelle is regarded as being responsible for much of the discontent that prevails at the conduct of the United Colored Democracy, which has developed under Mr. Morton's leadership. It is approach is cold, unsympathetic and haughty, which, if allowed full play in any subordinate or confidential agent, would destroy the influence of any political leader. Mr. Chappelle has helped to do that for Mr. Morton and his leadership. "4. A condition of affairs has been allowed to develop in the districts covered immediately by Mr. Morton's leadership which reflects scandalously upon the entire citizenship of Harlem, and which its descent citizens resent. Criminals, fakirs, gamblers and bootleggers of all sorts are allowed to conduct their business and to rob the poor people with little restraint upon them. These undesirable people have come to regard Harlem as their Paradise, and they naturally draw to them the shady characters from all of the large cities of the nation. He has not given the people of Harlem the assistance his position among them should enable him to give to make their districts as free as possible from the immoral and the criminal." Among the speakers were Cornelius Hughes, Oscar Waters and frene Blackstone. Chicago Regulars Celebrate Victory BY COUNT A. J. GARY. CHICAGO, III.

H. Chamtained to conduct the case in them, in the event of appeal will be associated Moorfield Student of the American Bar As of Washington, former special ney for the District of Columbia The present case arises out of the denial to Dr. L. A. Nixon, qualified voter, of the right to participate in the primary election at El Paso. The refusal to permit Dr. Nixon to vote in the primaries is based upon an act passed in May, 1923, by the Texas legislature, reading as follows: "Any qualified voter under the laws and constitution of the State of Texas, who is a bona fide member of the Democratic party, shall be eligible to participate in any Democratic primary election provided such voter complies with all laws and rules governing party primary elections; however, in no event shall a Negro be eligible to participate in a Democratic party primary election held in the State of Texas and should a Negro vote in a Democratic primary election, such ballot shall be void and election officials BANANA BREAD Mrs. Martha Smithwick Succumbs After Giving Birth in Hospital After a very brief illness of a week, Mrs. Martha Smithwick, beloved wife of Rev.

Attor- bia. are herein directed to throw out such ballot and not count the name." It is contended by the Advancement Association that under the system of one-party dominance in Southern States, where candidates for office are virtually elected in the primaries, to debar any class of voters from the primaries is in effect to disfranchise them. The constitutionality of the Texas statute and of other similar statutes throughout the South are involved in the case.

Of course, we did not expect Harold to be the whole team, but we did expect that his presence among the single boys would do a great deal in bracing them and incidentally wiping out the old defeat visited upon them last season. But "Fat" Jenkins is telling the world that the married look upon this game as an annual dribbling to be handed out by the boys who refuse to be caught mapping and sign the "I Will" contract that would call for their appearance at home at a certain hour every night. Cleveland Giants Victorious POTTSTOWN, Pa., April 5. Frank Arthur's Cleveland Giants, of Providence, R. I., have finished their training in the South and are on their way home. The Cleveland Giants stopped here Sunday and detected the home club by a 5-3 gain, the game going 10 innings. The hitting of Jodds and Bolting of J. Clark featured the Giants. The pitching of Hobo Lane with his subway spitter was too much for the home boys to solve HOWARD UNIVERSITY TRACK MEET MAY 2nd American Tennis Ass'n Reinstates Brown in harness for a little while himself, threw his support to the boys doing real team work. This was natural and while "Bob" tried to console the losers they knew he was inwardly apllauding the victory of his men on the Renaissance Big Five, who long ago agreed that wedding bells harmonize with baby yells. A novelty Spring dance is announced under the auspices of the Alpha Physical Culture Club, Inc., for Friday evening, May 8. 1925, at the New Manhattan Casino, 155th street and Eighth avenue. The occasion will mark the 21st anniversary of the A. P. C. Club, with club house at 126 West 125th street. The committee of one hundred, headed by Mrs. Kva T. Parks, chairman; Miss Antonette Jackson, secretary; Dr. Willis N. Cummings, treasurer, are at work on elaborate plans for a novel scheme of entertainment. Dancing and revelling to strata from the John C. Smith Modern Dance Orchestra will constitute the evening's pleasure. This organization was always foremost in the athletic world in an amateur athletic competition; it was the first to introduce basketball on a large scale among colored players and feels justly proud of the material development of the court game among the colored public. Her athletics have taken the lead in many track and field events, winning many individual championships. For many years the club has functioned as a community and recreation center, fostering wholesome recreation and athletics for Negro youths. The proposed program will cover a broader scope of activities and the influence of the club will render greater service to the community. Through the medium of public forms of entertainment the committee endeavors to solicit the interest of the community in the promotion of a much-needed service to young colored boys and men in the development of better citizenship. The membership of the club consists of men in every walk of life. The following are a few of the pioneer workers and representative men in the community: Gerald F. Normen, Dr. Clifton V.

Recently Mr. Harry Austin assembled a committee of one hundred well-known women to stage a big dance and carnival at the Manhattan Casino on Friday evening, May 1. The object of this fair is to raise funds in support of the Young Men's Christian Association Summer Camp for Boys.

The plans for the big affair on the night of May 1 include everything of an amusement nature which should carry an unusual appeal to everybody.

To Resolve Your Breakfast Advertisements American Tennis Association Reinstates Erring Player Who Makes Public Apology Edgar Brown Will Now Try to Regain Position Held Up to the Time He Ran Afoul of Association's Laws Newark, N. J., April 7. After a controversy lasting almost two years, the American Tennis Association has officially reinstated the former national champion, Edgar G. Brown. Brown was originally suspended for one year after a bitter discussion over the defaulting of the team of Brown and Saith in the finals of the doubles at the Chicago tournament of the A. T. A. in 1923. Further charges were filed at the annual meeting in Baltimore in 1924 and Brown was ordered suspended indefinitely until he appeared before the Judiciary Committee of the A. T. A. and stood trial. The ex-champion voluntarily appeared before President Harry McCard early in January and made a peaceful settlement of his difficulties. Brown is now residing in Philadelphia and is preparing for a strenuous season, in which he will begin his laureus. The follow-up letter sent out to all of the circular letter affiliated with the A.T. A. announcing Mr. Brown's restatement: February 14, 1925. This is to notify you officially that the President, Harry S. McCard, acting after the unanimous vote of the Executive Committee of the A. T. A. has terminated the suspension of Edgar G. Brown, and reinstated that Mr. Brown be reinstated to the A. T. A. and that this reinstation shall be recognised by all of filling bodies. This action was taken after Mr. Brown had officially and publicly apologized to President McCarthy and to the Judiciary Committee for any article written by him or for any remarks made by him reflecting discredit on the A. T. or any of its officers. Mr. Brown also denied having any malicious intent making any statements or publications himself and promised to submit himself to the guidance of the Constitution. ByLaw, the other rules governing the A. T. A. and gave assurance there would be no repetition of his alleged offenses of the past. He also presented a receipt showing that the board bill in Washington, D. C., the non-payment of which formed the basis of one of the charges, had been settled. Mr. Brown also wrote a letter of retraction and apology, which was published in the Baltimore "Aro-American," after the original had been exhibited to the President and the Judiciary Committee, copies of which he letter clipped from "Aro-American" the hands of all members of the Executive Committee, as were all of the facts outlined above. The action of the Executive Committee was taken in view of these facts, feeling that it were well to temper justice with mercy. It is the hope of the officers and the Executive Committee of the A. T. A. that with the reinstatement of Mr. Brown, all of the members of the association will endeavor to lay aside petty differences and work for a bigger, better and more powerful association, and that our ment at Bordenstown, N. J. in August, 1925, will present a unified body, working harmoniously for the best interest of tennis. The return game between the Cavalry Detachment Five at West Point and the 300th Infantry "Snakeer" will be played at the latter's new armory Saturday night, April 21. And Tells Some Truths That Might Appeal to the Ambitious Young Musician Desirous of Securing a Foothold. (By the Cameraman.) Pontain pens have been particularly busy during the past half year describing jazz music and the origin of syncopation. Musical historians have vividly described the peculiar rhythm which they claim was raised to its height by Negro musical performers and their imitators, from the days when Ben May Cooper and William Coleo "and Will Martin Cook wrote "Emancipation Day" to the present day when Vincent Lopez, Meyer Davis and Paul Whitenan (white), together with Ford Dabney, "Crickt" Smith, Allie Ross, Will Vodder and other eminent Negro performers dispense jazz and classics with equality, facility and charm. Due respects have been paid to W. C Handy, Walter Craig, Shelton Brooks, James Reese Europe, Halle Anderson, Will Riker, Bob Douge, Paster Penetal and others, who have had and are having their imprints in the musical world. The writer was once a fiddler in Harlem, when Salzer's Harlem River Park at 126th street and Lexington avenue was almost as famous as Madison Square Garden; and we venture to call attention to one sad fact in the advent of jazz and the participation of Negro performers in its rendition. From 1914 to 1918, Negro musicians enjoyed a "corner" on the jazz market, which is to them now, in a massive sense, a lost world. White musicians walked the streets idle, from Chicago to Washington and from New York to St. Louis, while Negro jazz artists reaped tremendous returns from their emotional strains. Negro orchestras were sent to Florida, and jazz bands were made up in New York, Boston, and Paris. Negro musicians, who had been studying and not playing, stopped studying and went to playing; and white musicians who had been playing and not studying were forced to stop playing and go to studying. And since 1918 the "Corner" has been slipping from the grasp of Negro jazzers. A few eminent race artists in the jazz world are still enjoying the prestige and financial returns of their abilities. But to use the vernacular of a few thoughtful musciana "The Jew boys and the American whites have hidded the Negro off Broadway." They studied jazz and technique, and when they began to emerge from their long vacation, alas, they could outjazz the jazzers. In Washington. in Philadelphia. in New York. and elsewhere. the brother musician is largely dwelling in the lost world of jazz. Only those who kept preparedness in the foreground of their musical careers were able to find musical "corner," which at one time destined to remain in the grasp of race performers for years to come. Martin-Smith Music School Benefit Bids Fair to Be Musical Triumph The Martin recital and dance at New Star Casino, Friday evening, May 8, bids fair to be the outstanding social event of the season judging from the exclusive list of box holders and advance sale of tickets. Ernestine Jessie Covington, the distinguished pianist, a graduate of Oberlin Conservatory and member of the faculty of the Martin-Smith Music School, recent winner of the $1,000 scholarship presented by the Jullard Foundation, will play two movements from G Minor Saint Seas Concerto with the full orchestra. Mr. Geo. Hastings, teacher of Miss Covington at Oberlin, in speaking of her ability as a pianist, said "she is the most gifted pianist I have ever known who belongs to her race and is as gifted musically as she is technically." SECRETARY of Commerce Herbert Hoover says: "The recruiting ground for the future leaders of the United States will be on the farms rather than in the factories." Clefties All Set for Big Time at Manhattan Casino Monday Night Charleston Contest to Surpass Anything of Its Kind Ever Attempted, Which Includes the Farce Staged at the Hippodrome. Follow the crowd Easter Monday night, Apr. 13, and it will be a safe guess that you will go to Manhattan Casino where the Clet Club will entertain in all its glory that night. The officers and members of the club have left undone nothing that would serve to make their fifteenth anniversary less attractive and the huge crowd expected is sure to enjoy one of the finest evenings of the year. The Charleston contest, for which Al Jolson, the popular comedian, has presented a silver cap, to be presented to the winner by the actor himself, is causing considerable comment. A number of entrants have already been received and applications may still be made by sending names to the Clet Club manager, Alex Fenner, at the Clet Club rooms, 134 West 52d street. This contest is expected to develop no little amusement as well as some really good talent and is certain to be one of the strongest features of the night. As an added feature, the club will present Billy Fowler and his crack band from the Everglades, one of Broadway's awful cabarets. Down on the Great White Way, Billy is some punksters and Harlemites will have a rare opportunity of hearing him and his expert aggregation Monday night. In addition to Billy Fowler, the Musical Buddies, one of the cleverest musical outfits on the stage, will do a specialty that alone would be worth hearing. These young men have just returned from South America, where they created a wonderful impression and have signed up for a return engagement shortly. These three presentations will make the Clifft Club reception this year one of the finest the old organization has ever held. Following the reception of this year it is the intention of the club to hold an Easter Monday celebration annually.

If ever a man was robbed of a fight Pete Hartley was robbed of that fight on Saturday night. The fang howled and booed the decision, and while it is true that many will do this in spite of the demands of the occasion, we are with each and every one who voiced his disapproval in that manner last week The New York State Athletic Commission should suspend each and every individual upon whose shoulders rested the authority to hand out that verdict against Hartley. It was so rotten it was cruel. The "Durable Dane" we had hoped would meet defeat at the hands of Loayza. We have followed the fortunes of the Chilean ever since he made his debut here and along with hundreds we have admired him for the bold stand he has made since the night he defeated Rosco. But we believe in fair play and justice to all regardless of color. To recall even one round won by Loayza would be a task for the most rabid fan. Hartley from the start showed that he knew much more about the game than Stanislaus and he hit him with everything he had. He made the Chilean look foolish at times and swing after swing sent after the Dane harmlessly cut the air. Black Bill. Cuban champion made his debut against Bobby Nutz. tabberg and showed lots of class. This fireweight is going to make the going hard for the best in the game and we hope that McMahon will get him some of those same boys he uncovered for Al Brown. His style is appealing and he will make a hit at any club. Chick Sugar This Week. Chick Sugars, "uncrowned ban- tamweight champion," who won his last 42 contests, in which the New England titleholder beat many an aspirant for titular honors, will try to keep his record intact when he faces the pride of Rockaway Beach. Jackie Marlowe, who knockout out Frankie Pasano recently, in the 10- round final at the Commonwealth Sporting Club, in Harlem, on sat- sarday night. Sugars has boxed at the Commonwealth a number of times during the last two years, but has never suffered a setback. The fans who have been clamoring to get a peek at Tony Martello's heavyweight slugger from Cuba, Carl Carr, who lulled his last 12 opponents to sleep, will have their wishes gratified when big Carl crawls through the ropes to mingle with Jack DeMave, the hard-hitting and aggressive battler from Washington Heights, who is being managed by Tommy Fahy. Carter will have to step some in in his first Gotham debut for DeMave is one of the most dangerous lads among the new crop of heavyweights. Harry Gaba, the popular Yorkville featherweight, will try to take the measure of Buck Arbuckle, the Frisco Flash, in the opening ten. Arbuckle was a riot at the Commonwealth two weeks ago when he met and knocked out Dixie Diamond. Buck showed plenty of stuff on that occasion, but he'll need his box of tricks against Gaba, who is nobody's fool. Completing the entertainment is a six-rounder between Jack Kiernan and Lou Brieca and a four-round setto featuring Jimmy Braxton and Johnny Huber. FORMER BELL-HOP'S PLAY HAS READING Garland Anderson, who recently came into the limelight when Al Jolson paid his expenses from San Francisco to New York as a potential playwright, now hopes to obtain a production for his play with funds contributed by well-wishers. As the first step toward the accumulating of a production fund the author caused his play, "Judge Not According to Appearances," to be read before a gathering at the Hotel Waldorf-Antoria on Sunday afternoon. After the play had been read by Richard B. Harrison, with the author seated on the platform, a collection was taken up. Anderson, who was a bell-hop in San Francisco, has written a play that deals with incidents in the life of a bell-hop. By means of further collection he hopes eventually to produce the play in New York, probably at the Manhattan Opera House. "I'm said that Mr. Willis is soon to write a treatise on "Billiard as a Social Pastime" from a player's viewpoint as well as "What Billiard is All About." Let it come old master."

This team of colored ball players stretched its losing streak to three straight by dropping two games Sunday afternoon before 4,000 fans on the grounds of the Catholic Protection in the Bronx. In the first game the Philadelphia Professionals defeated the Lincoln Giants in a ten-inning struggle by a score of 7 to 6, and in the second game the strong Camden team beat the local team by a score of 5 to 0 in seven innings. In the opening game the Lincoln Giants started strongly, sending three runners across the plate in the first inning. The Philadelphia team tied the score in the third inning, but the Lincoln Giants crashed through again into the lead in the fifth, scoring a run. The score again was tied in the eighth by the visitors. Both teams played hard for the breaks, but no break came until the tenth. The Phillies made three runs on their trip to the bat and the best that the Lincoln could do was to come within one run of tying the score. In the game with the Camden Club the Lincoln Giants could not connect with the ball, and went runners for the seven innings of the contest.

Black Carl says Lyle is his ham: Lyle says "get your bread and he will furnish the mustard." The results should make a good billiard sandwich; a "Hot Dog" for instance. Among the big timers seen at the Lafayette Emporium during the week were: F. A. Miller, A. L. Lyle, Paul Flood of "Runnin' Wild": Monte Hawley, Big Timer "Jo" Trent, the composer who nerves some of New York's best bands, including Vincent Lopez; J. Rosmond Johnson, composer of distinction and every inch a gentleman, and Archie Cohn, well known bassist. All of these celebrities take a fling at the froves, particularly the "Runnin' Wild" bunch, and it is apparent that there is a keen rivalry for supremacy here. From observations it appears that Miller has a shade the better game, that in, without monologue: with monologue, Lyle's best: Herbert Trent challenges the whole bunch. All have been carrying weight, but from now on everybody goes from strength.

Suggs is without a doubt the most prominent contender for the world's bantam-weight title. now held by Charlie (Phil) Rosenberg. So low had Chick's fortunes sunk at this particular time that he was very seriously thinking of enlisting in the Navy. In fact conditions had become so bad around Newport that Suggs went to New York looking for a job. He had no great difficulty finding work there but the big city didn't appeal to him and in 1920 he returned to Newport. During the six months or more he was in New York he never donned a glove or saw a fight. Shortly after his return to New England mutual friends brought him and David Lumiansky, his present friend, guide and mentor, together. Then began the partnership that lifted Chick from the ranks of the pork and bean performers to the very top of the NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1925 bantam and featherweight divisions of the six New England states. Lumiansky didn't take his new role as a boxers' manager seriously at first. He found Suggs such a willing, likable little chap though that he buckled down to business and set out to get his charge some work. The struggle for recognition had its inception in Fall River, where, by strange coincidence, "Chick" acquired both his New England titles. It was in the Border City that Chick removed all doubt from his new found friend's mind as to his ability, courage and gameness in the rough going. His memorable fight with Bobby Michaels, the New York lightweight slugger, was the medium through which he impressed Lumiansky and a host of others. Always rated as fast and clever "Chick" somehow had never gained a reputation for being able to assimilate punishment and then come back victoriously. Early in July, 1921, he left no further doubts on that score. Michaels, weighing 15 pounds more than Suggs and dwarfing the colored boy by his great height and tremendous reach, knocked him down three times in the first two rounds. Each time Suggs struggled to his feet and took the fight right back to his burler opponent. In the third frame he went down A select program will be rendered by talented artists, including Mina Ruth Cherry of Club Alabam, Mina, Linda Robinson-Jones, Girl's Theatrical Club, Fashion Review by Mina, Hilda Farnum, Mannequins from Harper's Review of Cannie's Inn. twice. The second trip to the mat had all the sarmarks of a complete knockout. The blow lifted Buggs off his feet and deposited him spread-eagled on his back as if someone had tied his hands and feet to the four posts of the ring. No one expected Buggs to stir again until long after the count of ten. But he pulled himself together and drew a tremendous cheer by tearing into the astonished Michael's with hands flying like flails. That broke the heart of the burly New York lightweight Seeing that his hardest blows had no effect on Buggs except to make him fight harder. Michael's resorted to deliberate fouling. The expression on his grizzled features was one of mingled surprise, disappointment and fear. He shot his heavy left far below the belt and drew a warning from Referee Patsy Downey. A few seconds later Michaelas repeated the punch and once more was warned to keep his punches above the deadline. At the start of the fourth round Michaelas took deliberate aim with his left and hanged Buggs flush on his protecting cup. Suggs doubled up in excruciating pain and Downey true to the fearless form that has made him New Bedford's most popular referee, disqualified Michaelas. Michael's money was held up by the club and it was finally released upon his signing a contract for a return bout with Suggs within two weeks. But the combined efforts of the New York and Massachusetts Boxing Commissions could never get Michael's to meet Sugga again. It is an ill wind that blows no one good, however. Chick's splendid exhibition of gameness made him a tremendous card in Fall River. He was given plenty of work there and grew steadily more popular with the fight followers of that great sporting city Then began a nine months' campaign to force Al Shubert to give Suggs a crack at his featherweight title. Long hammering in the newspapers finally brought the desired results and articles were signed for a bout for the New England championship to be held in New Bedford on August 11, 1922. To get into condition for the match, Shubert took on a supposedly easy shot in the meantime with a boxer named Charley K. O. Elkins of Boston. The latter was a Boston boy of very medicinal ability, practically unknown in New Bedford, and the show held in the open air at the Cycledrome drew but a small sprinkling of fans. Our popular little Bearcat was not himself that night and Elkins romped home with the decision and took along with it the New England featherweight title. Suggs and his manager sat stunned by the unexpected turn of affairs and sorrowfully said goodbye to almost a year's hard work and careful planning. Here, by the way, is a little peep into what goes on behind the scenes in the making of matches and shaping up of champions. When the surprise and shock of Elkins's victory had worn off, ad- A GRAND RECITAL A GRAND RECITAL given by the BROOKS MEMORIAL Methodist Episcopal Church Jamaica, N. Y. Rev. R. A.

Getting no encouragement from the promoter and fearing that if Elkins left New Bedford that night without having signed a contract for a bout that the future prospects for a crack at the featherweight title would be very dubious, Suggs' manager phoned the matchmaker of the Fall River club. Success crowned his efforts. Charley Mealey, who was then guiding the destinies of Elkins, was reached within two hours of the Shubert-Elkins fight. Elkins had received $112 for boxing Shubert. Elkins was offered a guarantee of $1,000 to box Suggs at 125 pounds the following week at Fall River. The size of the purse was too much for Mesley and he fell for it like a ton of brick. The result of that match is now a matter of boxing history. Suggs went around Elkins like a hoop around a barrel.

Tiger Flowers Now Ready to Assume New Role Which Will Show Him as a Star of the Silver Sheet Very Soon The home town of Tiger Flowers, sensational colored middleweight fighter, is all agog today. Manager Walk Miller, accompanied by the great colored gladiator and "Fighting Bob" Lawson, arrived this morning, their arrival completing the cast that is to take part in the making of a five reel feature moving picture which will protray many inside lights on the life of the famous Flowers and will explain just why he has been such a sensation in the squared circle.

Present plans are to complete the entire picture about the last of April. Besides the leading character, Theo. (Tiger) Flowers, "Fighting Bob" Lawson, new world's colored light heavyweight champion, will appear opposite the Tiger in the play. Manager Miller and Flowers are making the picture independently and Miller advises that it will be ready for release about July 1, provided everything goes along according to schedule. The entire population of the city is assisting in every way to make the photoplay a real success. Brunswick is the boyhood home FIVI Many interesting tests will be staged before the camera and Manager Miller predicts that when the film is released it will be one that will get favorable comment from all who see it. It will tell a complete story of how the fighting Deacon came from a delivery boy in a grocery store at $1.00 a week to the highest paid fighter in the world, not to be an actual champion. It will also show many of the unique training stunts that Flowers has followed and which have helped to make him a success as an athlete. We hope Mr. Miller will spend a little dough advertising in those papers now helping him with the publicity. Supreme TheatreNow Up-to-Date House 'Oil Scandals' Easily Surpasses the Previous Offerings of Past Weeks 'Oil Scandals' Easily Surpasses the Previous Offerings of Past Weeks Many High Spots in New Show That Will Appeal to Harlemites, With Pugh and Joe Byrd Holding Down the Comedy and Meeting With Great Success 18 Supreme Theatre Up-to-Date 'Oil Scandals' Easily Previous Offeri Many High Spots in New Harlemites, With Pugh and the Comedy and Meeting We had another pleasant surprise on Monday night. When we eased into the Lafayette Theatre it was with the conviction that another one of those shows billed as good would turn out to be everything but what was claimed for it. Wrong again. "Oil Scandals" proved to be one of the most entertaining things of its kind done in some time and the show easily surpasses the offerings which we have been witnessing at the same house during the past few weeks. We do not say this with any attempt at belittling the work of any of our friends, but even though the excuse for mighty small houses had been laid at the doors of Lent, we personally shared the opinion or hundreds of others and that opinion is based on the way in which a thing appeals to us. Did "Oil Scandals" enjoy the opportunity of opening on a holiday night we make bold to say that it would have done much larger business than the other shows of which we speak. There are many things to contribute to the success of this new vehicle which the others did not boast and the outstanding one is that the new offering comes here without the time worn Bits and other parts which have been done to death. Among those whose work reached out and seemed to meet with instant favor at the hands of the people were: E. E. Pugh and Joe Byrd, comedians; Grace Smith, Griswold and Drayton. Midred Brown and Billy Andrews, Henrietta Loveless. The work of the chorus is splendid and there are many numbers played by a fine orchestra that stand out. The scenery is also of the best and in many places shows improvement over what we had been importunted to believe was the beat to be secured some weeks ago. The rain scene was most realistic to say nothing of the "get-a-way" of the two porters, the principal comedians when they had fallen after seeking wealth via the blandishments of a "lice guy" who used them to accomplish his ends. The show at the present prices should do good business while at the Paleyette. Matinees commencing Easter Sunday will be offered every day with the usual midnight show on Friday. Sterling Grant Tells Us That "Seven-Eleven" Is Still on Big Rampage Smaashing Box Office Records All Along the Line and Pulling 'Em in Where Others Failed (By STERLING S. GRANT.) "Seven-Eleven" is still on its murderous rampage over the Col- umbia Butterqueen wane; murdering all records is its specialty. Since leaving the Olympic Theatre, in Chicago, where it committed its primary murder by killing all previ- ous records of that house, the army of tremendous entertainers made a terrific charge on the Star and Garter in the same city, where it captured the old and established a new record. From that "Seven- Eleven" turned its outburst of continuous diversion on Detroit, the "Gayet" there being attacked and扣ocked with a new record. Now this band of Columbia, not being contented with their triumphs in the United States, British territory was taken as a battle ground. The murderous band moved on to Toronto, Canada. The Empire Theatre then was said to be a hard job, but its records fell like taking candy from a baby. British territory being so easy, it was soon evacuated and the next place of attack was Buffalo, N.Y. where the Gavity Theatre was at attacked and fell with the records before the mighty march of song and dance. Then merely these assassins of gloom moved to Rochester, where they laughed in the face of a battlefield strewn with the remains of one of the largest colored attractions which had been torn to pieces by the critical cultures of the newspapers, and once more established new records. Then came a short attack on Watertown, N. Y., where in the days the attendance was more than the population of the town. Writers in newspapers where "Seven-Eleven" has been established have been so numerous that it would take columns of pages to give credit. "Seven-Eleven" can but thank all of its patrons and newspapers collectively for their criticisms. In Utica, N. Y. they have shattered the treasures at the Colonial, "Sovereign Kleren" is acclaimed the best show there in twenty-five years. "Sovereign Kleren" is headed by Howard and Persea and Cook and Smith, with Jack Goldberg to the box office.

Passion Play Coming to the Franklin Theatre Film Drama of the Life of Christ Carries a Strong Appeal and Should Be Seen Manager Eckert has secured the much-talked-of "Paslon Play" to entertain patrons of his Franklin Theatre Friday, Saturday and Sunday of this week, and we feel we can say that no other picture of recent days along religious lines carries a stronger appeal. A slight history of the picture shows that, in 1633, the village of Oberammergau, in Bavaria, was elated by a terrible plague. On its cessation the entire population made a vow to perform the Paslon Play of our Saviour every tenth year out of gratitude and as a means of religious instruction a vow which has ever since been faithfully observed. The inhabitants of this secluded village have a rare union of artistic ability and cultivation, with perfect simplicity. Their familiarity with religious subjects is even beyond what is usual in the Alpine parts of Bavaria, and the spectacle is looked upon with the same feeling with which it originated—devout and edifying. The impersonator of Christ considers his part an act of worship. He and all the rest who are to participate in the enactment are selected for their holy life, and are consecrated to their work with prayer and fasting. In fact, it is the ambition of every child in the village to act a part in this great event, and in order to do so they must show in their daily life that they are worthy of such an honor.

Does Marriage Really Ruin All Romances? This Question Forms the Theme of "Husbands and Lovers" at the New Lincoln Theatre Why does the marriage ceremony invariably dim the glow of romance which has culminated in a trip to the altar? And why is it that so many men are such devoted lovers when they are courting a girl—and such man ter-fo-act husbands after they have won her and the honeymoon is over? These questions, applicable to so many married couples, and yet beautifully farced by few—very few—form the theme of one of the most fascinatingly entertaining motion pictures which has come to this city in a long time. It is "Humans and Lovers," a first National picture, produced by Louis B. Mayer and directed by John M. Stall, which begins a four-day engagement at the Lincoln Theatre to-morrow. Handled in a humorous mood, the treatment of the subject is IN THEATRE and 132nd St. West Photoplaya Phone Harlem 1163 Mon., Tues, and Wed. HEATRE St. Phone Harlem 1163 Tues. and Wed.

With Lewis S. Stone as the husband, Lew Coily is the intimate friend who becomes the lover, and Florence Vidor as the young wife, the picture is a succession of laughs, based on situations which could arise in any home in America. Here and there, however, is a bit of pathos that folks one to a full realization of the hard knocks and sorrows ahead of negligent husbands and complete wives. One of the most amusing situations in the photoplay shows Law Body waiting at the altar for his praise, who at that moment is sleeping with "the other man."

Howard Scott Maintaining An Up-to-Date Theatre for People of Brooklyn Supreme an Entirely Different House Since New Management Took It Over Recently and Deserving of Support One night, last week the writer happened to be in Brooklyn and drpowed in at the Supreme Theatre, formerly the Putnam, and received a most pleasurable shock when a hasty "once over" proved that we were all wrong in the opinion voiced in these columns some time ago. We had doubts of the house being brought to that standard which we have always expected from first-class theatres offering vaudeville and "tabs," but those same doubts were dispelled when we saw that a man with an eye to business was in charge, and we decided then and there to throw what little support we could to him, an he is fully deserving of it. The house has been thoroughly cleaned out; the ushers are a businesslike looking set of young colored airlift, and it was even refreshing to notice the courteous manner of the young lady in the box office when approached in quest of information. Improvements have been made back stage and the house has at last taken on the atmosphere of a theatre. We can assure each and every person in Brooklyn that they can now enter the Supreme Theatre and, under the best suplies, enjoy what the place offers along amusement lines. Drake and Walker's successful "tab" continues to put over their work with snap and ginger, and fun and merriment run riot during the time they are on the stage. For next week, opening Monday night, another "tab," entitled "Pickamminny Days," will be the offering, along with many features, which include new music, contunes and original laughs, which should keep the house packed all during the run of this show. The orchestra has been taken over for the night of April 13 by the White Moose, which is behind a big benefit for Ned Bennett. Since the opening of the new office of The Amsterdam News in Brooklyn hundreds of readers have been added to the list of those securing this paper, and we will try to keep all hands advised of the theatrical offerings Mr. Scott intends to present to his many patrons. Give the house the support which should be the reward of an honest business man, making it possible to keep many colored people working under the best auspices. Lew Payton Resting Up Low Payton, author along with Sissie and Blake of "The Chocolate Danden," came to town last week and is resting up before returning to take his place with the show. Mrs. Payton has been ill and is at present in one of the leading hospitals in Rochester, N. Y., where she underwent a successful operation. The "Dandies" continue to do good business, and from what could be gleaned from genial Lew, the show is due to remain out for quite some time yet.

Additional Out of Town News on Page 11 OLGA New York City : - : Tuskegee Celebrates Founder's Day Doorkeeper to the Secy. of State THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN Eddie Savoy at 70 Dawes Seeks to Aid Aged Attache State Dept. Doorkeeper Now 75, Fights Retirement (Preston News Service) WASHINGTON, D. C., April 6. Vice-President Dawes has found another rule of which he does not approve, and, in his characteristic way, he has gone to work to have it charged. This has nothing to do with the Senate, but concerns a Negro who has been the doorkeeper for all Secretaries of State in the past fifty-six years. His name is Edward Augustine Savoy, and it has been on the diplomatic register longer than any other name. May 2, Savoy will be 75, and under the statute, he must retire. He became the doorkeeper of the Secretary of State when that office was occupied by Hamilton Fish in 1869, and he has served in the same capacity for eighteen succeeding Secretaries, including Secretary Kellogg. In addition to being the oldest man in point of service in the diplomatic corps, "Eddie" has other claims to fame. It was he who carried America's ultimatum from Secretary John Sherman to Senior Polo de Barnabe, Spanish minister, when the United States declared war on Spain, and when "Eddie" delivered the ultimatum he delivered the minister's passports. The same year he accompanied Secretary John Hay to Paris, and when the treaty of peace was signed it was "Eddie" who affixed the great seal of the United States to it. But, notwithstanding these claims to distinction, and the fact that he is as spry as many a man half his age, he must be retired, according to the rule. But "Eddie" knowing Gen. Dawes's aversion to rule, has appealed to him and told the Vice-President he couldn't get along on the retirement pay. "We'll see about that," was the general's reply, and he informed Washington in general and Secretary Kellogg in particular that a way had to be found to keep "Eddie" on the payroll, rules and regulations to the contrary notwithstanding. JAMES H. HUBERT ON WELFARE BOARD James H. Hubert, Executive Secretary of the New York Urban League, has been appointed on the Board of Directors of the Welfare Council of New York City, a new organization formed at the "Better Times" dinner in the Hotel Pennsylvania.

Proctor, pastor of The Nazarene congregational Church, in his address at the Founder's Day Exercises of the New York Tuskegee Association, at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, last Sunday afternoon. Dr. Proctor paid a notable tribute to the memory of the late Booker T. Washington, and told of his long friendship for him, and of the place he has made in the hearts of his fellow-countrymen. A large number of graduates, former students and friends of Tuskegee were present at the annual Founder's Day exercises, which are held annually throughout the country by Tuskegee graduates. Tuskegee was founded forty-three years ago ago on April 5th by Dr. Booker T. Washington, and the day is memorable in the hearts of former students of the institution. Discrimination Alleged Against Chickering Hall Management T. Lloyd Hickman, Negro barbione and pupil of Monsieur Lafarge, was denied the opportunity to sing at Chickering Hall when the management learned that he is a Negro. The program was scheduled for March 14, and tickets were out to that effect. He was to have been assisted by Serge Glemer, violinist, and Maurice Lafarge, accompanist. Mr. Roland Woodin, concert director, had a series of six concerts arranged for at Chickering Hall, and Mr. Hickman was to appear in this series. No attempt was made by Mr. Hickman to fight the matter in court. Mr. Hickman, however, arranged for and carried through a most successful concert March 25 at Carnegie Chamber Music Hall. Music Lovers were enthusiastic over the Carnegie Hall recital of Mr. Hickman. Effusive applause greeted each number of the talented baritone. The artist appeared best in the rendition of Massenet's aria "Vision Fugitive" from the opera Herodilde. The intense passion of this number was interpreted with splendid feeling. A group of English songs and ballads was sung with verve and expression. Mr. Hickman moved his audience with a group of foreign songs. His phrasing, and duction were superb whether singing in Italian, French, Spanish or English. The Negro Spirituals, "Follow Me" and "Somebody's Knocking at Your Door," completely won his audience. Monseur Lafarge, who has accompanied Caruso, Melba, Amesto, and other Metropolitan singers, speaks in the highest terms of praise of Mr. Hickman's voice and singing. Rev. C. H. Trusty's Trustees in Court (Preston News Service.) PITTSBURGH, Pa., April 6—A group of members of Grace Memorial Presbyterian Church, headed by Dr. George L. Winstead, J. S. Patton and others, went into the Allegheny County Courts last week and secured a temporary injunction against the trustees of the church, restraining them against selling the manse. Rev. Charles H. Trusty, recently elected moderator of the Allegheny Presbytery, is pastor of the church. It appears that for some time a fraction of the church led by W. H. S. Rodgers and Walter T. Miller has been endeavoring to have Rev. Trusty restrained by Grace Memorial Presbyterian Church. It is thought that antagonists to the pastor felt that because Rev. Trusty had seen fit to rent out four rooms of the tenroom manse and pocket the rentals therefor offered an opportune chance for them to wage a successful fight against the pastor and eventually secure his removal from the pastorate. SPRING PILGRIMAGE TO TUKEKEE INSTITUTE Horace D. Taft, brother of ex- President Taft; Td. Asson Phelps Stokes, dean of the National Cathedral, and William Jay Schieffeld, chairman of the board of trustees of Tunkegee Institute, with a large party of others prominent in social and financial circles in the East left last week on the annual spring plumage to Tunkegee Institute. Dr. Proctor spoke on "Booker T. Washington as I knew Him." He said: "I regard it as one of the great privileges of being a friend of Booker T. Washington. He was my friend, and I was his. We ate, slept and talked together. I heard his first address in Atlanta when he leaped into fainte. I heard his last address in New Haven when he said that he was born in Greenwich and returned to the city and expected to die in the South. was just a few days from that time," continued Dr. Proctor, "when the news reached me that he had passed away. Dr. Proctor told of the impress-ive funeral of Dr. Washington at Tuskegee, when thousands gath-red, bringing flowers by the car-loads, and hundreds sent telegra-ments and letters of condolence. It was one of the greatest tributes that has ever been paid any one, said the speaker, "Booker T. Wash-ington carried on the great work of Lincoln, and judging from the source from which men come, Booker Washington was a greater man than Lincoln. Booker Washington was the first great leader to advocate the two races working to gether for the common good." He had many great qualities, said the speaker, "He was a great or-ator," said Dr. Proctor, "and no or-ator in the country was more eloquent than he. His eloquence was measured by great deeds. He built up a great industrial city. Tuskegee is one of the wonders of the world. "He had a great character and was an optimist. If you lose faith in the Negro race go to Tuskegee. The Ideals of Tuskegee are spread throughout the world." Others who spoke were Watt Terry, chairman of the Harlem Campaign Committee of the Hampont-Tuskegee Endowment Fund: Mrs. Clarence Matthews and Revs. Dr. A. C. Powell and Dr. W. W. Brown and Fred R. Moore. Musical numbers were given by Mrs. V. S. Winfield. E. Manasseh Ray. Miss Bessie Martin. Mrs. G. W. Lawson and J. Dewitt Spencer. The officers of the association are Robert Evans, president; Lainie Johnson, vice-president; Mrs. Margaret Smith, treasurer; Mrs. Ruth Carter, corresponding secretary; Miss Louise Moultrie, financial secretary; Mrs. Helen Butler, assistant secretary, and Robert Hurry, chaplain. Ohio Sheriff Under Indictment Charged With Permitting Woman to Run House of Prostitution (Preston News Service.) CINCINNATI, O. April - Richard B. Witt, sheriff of Hamilton County, was indicted by the "business men's jury" in its final report made to the Common Pleas Court Wednesday. Witt is charged in the indictment with permitting a house to be kept as a resort. He is also jointly indicted with Bessie Banks, a colored woman, proprietress of the alleged resort. The building in which the alleged resort is located is declared in the grand jury report to be the most notorious building in Cincinnati. It is said that no mention was made in the report of the other heirs, white, with similar ties to the property. It is said that Sheriff Witt issued a statement following the indictment in which he declared that he was the victim of political enemies who are endeavoring to kill him politically. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 8, 1925 Venereal Diseases The First of a Series of Articles by the United States Public Health Service 1. — HISTORY AND DISTRIBUTION Three hundred and sixty-three thousand new cases of venereal disease were reported in the United States in the year ending June 30, 1924. To many folks this may seem to be a trifling announcement, of no more importance than a statement that 670,000 persons had caught cold; but to one who knows the true facts about venereal disease, it brings a vision of misery, of lost time and money, of an economic burden to workers and the nation, of the suffering of innocent women and children—all of which have been the accompaniments of syphilis and gonorrhea from time immemorial, and which in the present day can be escaped only by the application of the knowledge of the cause, prevention and cure of venereal diseases. Although the absolute knowledge of syphilis as a distinct disease dates back to only 1444—when the sailors of Columbus brought the disease to Spain from Hattl, and when the armies of Charles VIII of France and Verdinand of Spain spread the disease through Italy—there is evidence tending to show that syphilis existed ever since cities were built and people. In the poems and writings of the incident mention is made of communicating a loathsome disease by disking, as well as by other relations between Emperor Ho-Ang-Tl, who ruled China more than 4,000 years ago caused the medical knowledge of that day to be collected into a single work, and in that work can be found a description of gonorrhea, as well as of a disease similar to syphilis. Down through the ages venereal diseases have come. They have been nursed by immorality, by ignorance, and by a false idea that they were punishments visited upon sinners—an idea that ignored the fact of innocent infection. In secret, and therefore unchecked by medical science, these plagues ran their full courses, leaving death, insanity, loathsome torse, paralysis, pain-racked wives, still-born children, and untold misery and suffering in their wake. Then, as now, venereal diseases took their toll from all classes of people. Rich and poor, idler and worker, moral and immoral, all who become exposed were infected. But there is one difference in ages past there was no remedy, mild malice, no hope of syphilis, and no morbidity. Modern science, however, has evolved a method of cure. Though it is not always possible to undo all the harm which has been done, to-day an infected person has the comfort of knowing that early treatment by a reliable physician or in an official public clinic may prevent the worst consequences of venereal disease. It has been said that in Russia to-day there are communities in which 90 per cent of the people are infected with venereal disease. From Canada comes the report that 51,931 citizens of that country—men, women and children, many of them innocent—have been reported as new cases in the last three years; and these are said to be only a fraction of the actual existing cases. In the United States the figures for the last fiscal year show an increase of 24,282 cases of venereal disease over the number reported in the previous year; but the increase in this country may be laid to better reporting of cases rather than to spreading infection. As late as the year 1873 there were 286 more deaths than births in the Hawaiian islands. The Hawaiian National Government and its Board of Health accounted for this situation in these words: "Syphilis may be considered as the most important cause of depopulation." Such a statement needs no comment. In discussing the distribution of venereal diseases in the United States it is necessary to remember that, although 263,000 cases were reported to the various State boards of health last year, there undoubtedly were many other cases which escaped discovery or which were not listed with the State authorities. As far back as 1915, Oeler estimated that syphilis (including still-births, deaths of infants under one month, and other syphilis conditions) took 60,000 lives in one year. This was a number sufficient to place it at the top of the infections—a leadership which it may still hold. Out of 4,347 cases of infectious diseases in New York City, in September of last year, 1,639 were cases of venereal disease, while tuberculosis claimed but 838. Syphilis and gonorrhea, therefore, were responsible for 34 per cent of the total number of infectious cases. Among the Negroes the rate of venereal disease infection is double that of the whites. It is said that syphilis is probably the greatest cause of death and disability in the colored race. With these facts in mind, when faced with the necessity of providing able-bodied men for the army and navy, Congress in 1918 created the Division of Venereal Diseases in the United States Public Health Service. Since its formation, this Division has cooperated with the State boards of health in checking the ravages of syphilis and gonorrhea and has been active in spreading the true facts of life, of sex, and of disease. Among other things, this Government bureau has published a set of pamphlets polling the way to prevention and cure. These books may be obtained from the various State boards of health. Set A is for young men; set B for officials and the general public; set C for boys; set D for parents; set E for girls and young women, and set F is for educators. This article has shown something of the history and distribution of venereal diseases. A second number of the series will politic and illustrate the economic burden to the worker and the nation caused by these plagues through the loss of time and wages, and increased number of accidents, and the upkeep of asylums and other institutions. A third account will lift the curtain on some of the human misery resulting from syphilis and gonorrhea; while a fourth will describe community, industrial and individual measures which must be taken if these twin scourges are to be effectively combated and controlled. Warn Migrants of REAL Estate Sharks LANSING, Mich., April 6.—"Reports are being received by the Division of Negro Welfare and Statistics that salesmen for shady real estate firms are again active throughout the South and are offering for sale tracts of unenanted Michigan lands for farming purposes," declared C. A. Campbell, Director of Negro Welfare. Continuing, Mr. Campbell says: "Seemingly flattering offers are being made to colored people who plan to move North and the quality of the land is painted in glowing terms." "Very little fertile, or even tillable soil is being offered by these agencies, as Michigan has, those lands of acres of worthless land, particularly in Lake County and parts of Newaygo and Manistee counties, and strenuous efforts are being made by shady real estate dealers to unload this land," he said. Survey-Graphic Had Huge Sale Speaking about the recent issue of the Survey-Graphic, Paul Kellogg, editor of the Survey, said that the Harlan number had been in greater demand than any previous issue. He said that he had received comments from all parts of the country, and that it might favorably "Home Sweet Home," he said, had written to complain that the magazine was preaching social equality, and one of the advertisers, the Mayflower Hocal of Washington, D.C., had opened all its advertisements because the magazine had carried the picture of a black man, Roland Hayes, on the cover. He had also received endorse He had also received endorsements of widely different schools of Negro thought. Dr. Moton had sent him a letter of congratulations from the University of Georgia sent him a telegram from Atlanta磨刻 the issue. African Religious Tribe in Revolt Granted Independence Under German Rule—Now Under Great Britain CAPE TOWN, South Africa, April 23.--The South African Government has suddenly been called upon to deal with a revolt in the mandated territory of southwest Africa, a former German colony. The trouble does not affect the whole territory, but is confined to the kithaboth tribe, who demand independence and have appealed to the League of Nations for support. The difficulty has existed for some months, but up to the present had not been considered serious. The tribe now is under arms. Administrator Hofmeyer has gone to the scene with an armed force and three airplanes have also been sent. It is hoped, however, that militants will be arranged peacefully. Under German rule, he says, the tribe was ranked as nominally independent and had its own Parliament. During the war the tribesmen refused to fight against Great Britain and joined Gen. Botha's invading army. Since the war they have been allowed to retain their Parliament, but have been denied complete independence. They are said to be acting under the influence of young extremists, insisting that they are a religions community and firmly believing that they will be protected by Providence. [Rohoboth, a Biblical name, was given to the tribe by missionaries during the period of German sovereignty over Southwest Africa.] Mrs. B. Barrett Discusses Objects of Beach PORT MONMOUTH, N. J.—Mrs. Bertha Barrett, president, when questioned regarding the object of Barrett Beach, Inc., said a thought can be so large in its scope, so unusual in its conception, so bewildering in its understanding, so desirable in its motive, so spiritual in its haraeyal, so astounding in its audacity, so paralleled in its magnanimity, that unimaginined, unprejudiced and unrivalled it is beyond comprehension, the realization then so overwhelming it is of lasting good to those that go to meet it, such as the thought put forth in Barrett Beach, Inc., and through it comes the popularity of Barrett Beach, a tract of 50 acres, a charming location on the seashore acceptable to any one Aladdin rubbed his wonderful lamp and Barrett Beach materialized, to shower the colored citizen with its blessed peacefulness and Heavenly grandeur, its balmy climate, its lovely views, its perfect bathing, its 1,000 feet of clean, sandy beach.

College President Dies of Apoplexy James B. Dudley Had Been in Educational Work Many Years GREENSBORO, N. C., April 6. James B. Dudley, president of the Agricultural and Technical College, Greensboro, N. C., died at 9:45 P. M. Saturday. He worked up to the last. On Thursday afternoon he went home with a sick headache, which no one thought serious. All day Friday, although in bed, he was able to confer with his directors and to carry on the regular business of the college. On Saturday morning he was stricken with apoplexy, the result of which withdrawn years, and sank into unconsciousness from which he never recovered. Dr. Dudley was born in Wilmington; N. C., November 2, 1859. He was educated at Shaw University and prior to coming to Greenboro was for sixteen years principal of the Peebody School in Wilmington, N. C. He has been president of the A. and T. College (formerly A. and M. College) since 1896 and under his administration the school has had wonderful expansion. When he became president there were only 50 students enrolled. To-day there are over 50 young men enrolled and within the five years, more than half-million dollars have been spent in buildings and equipment. The school is now one of the foremost institutions of its kind in the country. Before coming to Greenboro he was editor of the Wilmington Chronicle, while principal of the Peabody School, and was, at the same time, very much interested in politics. He never accepted any political office, but was sent as a delegate to the Republican National Convention in St. Louis in 1898. Since he had been in Greenboro he founded a building and loan association, which is still doing successful business. He was president of the Negro State Teachers' Association for six years, during which time he vitalized it and made it a potent factor in the educational progress of the State. His efforts also contributed largely to the building up and energizing of the Negro State Fair, until it has become one of the foremost organisations in the country. He was a trustee for many years of Bethel A. M. E. Church, where he also taught a class in Sunday school, in addition to his Sunday-school class at the college. He was prominent in the Masonic and Knights of Phyllas traternities.

Leaders Confer About Alabama Race Relations State Committee Reports Progress, Faces Facts and Drafts Program "Golden Rule the Only Solvent" BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The annual meeting of the Alabama Committee on Interracial Co-operation was held in this city a few days ago, attended by leading representatives of the two races from all over the state. Secretary J. D. Burton pointed out many evidences of progress during the past year along the lines of educational equipment, school maintenance, economic welfare and public service. Encouraging reports were made also by delegates from Birmingham, Mobile, Selma and other cities. A report was unanimously adopted expressing the confidence that conditions are improving, but stating that much remains still to be done. The report called attention especially to the need of better housing, better schools, higher pay for teachers, more uniform justice in the courts, and constructive newspaper publicity for the worthy achievements of the race. The report continues. "We cannot keep one race down without the other being kept down with it, and those things that will help elevate one race will have an elevating effect on the other also. We must recognize the rights and duties of each race and use all legitimate efforts to secure justice and opportunity for all. Only by the teaching and practice of the principles of Christianity, and especially of the golden rule, shall we find that solution for which we labor, hope and pray." Dr. Dunbar H. Ogden, outstanding Mobile minister, was elected chairman of the committee, and Dr. E. T. Belaw, a leading colored dentist of the same city, was elected secretary. Among the representatives of the colored group addressing the meeting were Dr. Belaw, Mrs. R. R. Moton, of Tuskegee Institute; Dr. F. R. Fagland, of Birmingham; Prof. G. W. Trenholm, president of the State Normal School at Montgomery, and Dr. A. F. Owen, dean of the theological department of Selma University. Dental Assistants Among the newer industrial occupations being opened by the Executive Secretary of the Armstrong Association of Philadelphia is the starting of a class for young colored women as dental assistants. This project is an effort to provide remunerative employment for those colored girls who have not finished high school and who, on the other hand, have been fitted for occupations other than those common to domestic and personal service. They are being taught to make appointments, wait on the dentist at the chair, sterilize instruments, clean ray plates, and make cement, gold inlays and the like. Interested city dentists are being canvassed for the employment of those girls. In the garment industry a class in power machine operation has also been started. Delaware M. E. Conference in Newark Meeting the sixty-second session of the Delaware Annual Conference, attended by ministers of the M. E. churches of Pennsylvania. Delaware and New Jersey, is in session in St. John's Church, in Newark, by Bishop Joseph F. Berry, L.L. D., senior prelate of the Methodist Episcopal Church. The delegates were welcomed by Dr. C. L. Baldwin, on behalf of the white churches of Newark. Attorney Oliver Randolph greeted the delegates on behalf of the Negro citizenry of Newark. Rev. L. B. Ellerson, pastor of the Thirteenth Avenue Presbyterian Church, also addressed the meeting. The program of the world service of the Methodist Episcopal Church was dwelt upon by Dr. O. W. Aumon of Chicago. Dr. F. H. Butler of Philadelphia, secretary of the Epworth League, presided at the memorial service. Bishop Berry offered the obituary prayer. Dr. John W. E. Bowen, dean of the Gammon Seminary of Atlanta, Ga., was introduced by Bishop Berry. Rev. James M. Dickerson was elected secretary of the conference. Mrs. M. J. Turner, secretary of the Delaware Conference, presided at the Women's Foreign Missionary meeting. Miss Emilline R. Loveless of New York spoke on the work in North Africa. Rev. W. A. Hubbard, pastor of St. John's M. E. Church, is host to the conference. Skilled Workers Increase Although there was a great amount of unemployment during the past year, fifty-one of the most important industries in Philadelphia and vicinity reported, through Mr. Washington's offices, an increase in the number of Negroes employed in the skilled and semi-skilled departments of these industries. Whatever industrial depression was noticeable evidently affected both white and colored workers alike. In the Philadelphia vicinity industrial improvement is now in sight and the surplus Negro labor will soon be fully employed.

The observation 1s not en- Urely new. The Flemish end Dutch schools have long since com- plained that the sombre and yet lumtnogs colors of Rembrandt can no longer be reproduced om account of the lack of the quality of paint that the masters used. But the Dutch painters have also of recent Years discovered the remedy. ‘The remedy is a remarkable compost tion worked out by an American Negro, Professor George Carver ct the Tuskegee Institute. From cer- tain rock formations in Georgia and the Carolinas this scientist bas extracted paints and colors that possess the glow and tranparency encountered in the works of the Rembrandt school. This paint re quires no mixtures to preserve its permanency and Issting brilliance. Professor Carver's discovery Is one of the greatest value to the art of painting. For it restores sa agency in art that had been lost a8 completely as the composition of the Greek fire. which burned under water.” FURNISHED ROOMS 29TH BT., 260 W.—Nestly tamisb. od roo. lectrle lights, bauna: Price moderate.” Pharoy, “bx3e. err. ‘Ape.6it a 5 3 se, 1 uy +3D ST.. 313 W.—Furntshed rocaas, tearm team’ heat, §5 per week. 59TH 8T.. 340 W.—Large frost Foom to let, reasonable; steam eat, bath; ‘suitable for’ couple.

A rose is beautiful in whatsoever garden it may bloom. A star has the same radiance whether it shines from the East or from the West."—Abdul Baha GEORGE E,. CANNON DR. GEORGE E. CANNON, a “valiant soldier in the cause of freedom,” has laid aside his armor “to study war nv more.” His was a beautiful life of ser: vice, as citizen, physician, business man, politician and friend. Those who knew him, of all races, will moura his demise. SIGN THE PETITION TODAY THE BILL introduced by Assembly- man Pope B. Billups of the Twenty-first District passed both houses oi the Legislature and is now on the desk of Governor Smith for his signature. It is yitsitned to redistrict the Seventh S~inicipal Court district so as to relieve the congestion in the municipal courts and to make it possible for Negroes in Harlem to elect a member of the race to the judicial bench. It is not a segre- gated proposition as the justices of the municipal court rotate from court to ceurt, all over the city. There is but one questian involved: li white judges Sit in judgment on Negroes, why should got Negro justices sit in judgment on white p:ople? This is simple justice. SIGN THE PETITION TO GOVERNOR SMITH TO ACT FAVORABLY ON THE VILLUPS COURT BILL—TODAY. NEW DEMOCRATIC LINES WRITING in the Sunday World Frank L. Hopkins reports that a move is on foot to further widen the breach in the Democratic party by reading out the States of New York, New Jersey, Mas: sachusetts, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Illinois and setting up a Democratic dictatorship of the South and West. Thus, Northern Democrats who haven't anerve enough to get out from under the s=ymination oi the ignorant and intoler- ;pAt Southern clement may find them- Iselves kicked out. This would be a - blessing to the Negro in the North who: zrefuses to vote in large numbers for 'Bemocratic candidates because of the zSouthern oligarchy and make it possi Zble for him to vote in two parties with Jout feeling that he is helping to lynch shinself. . AWARD DR. MOTON THE | SPINGARN MEDAL AS THE CAMPAIGN ‘o raise a five — dollar endowment for Hampton ‘aad Tuskegee Institutes nears its goal, we are inclined to wipe the slate of Dr. Robert Russa Moton absolutely cleam ead dot our hats to him 2s the most comatractive geaias of the Negro race j- dgeerice tadey We have every as surance that the goal be and his fellow workers set will be reached, ia which event we recommend him to the Spin- garn Medal Committee for having ren: dered the most meritorious service of the year. WE HAVE DIFFERED with Major Moton in the past and may differ with him in the iuture, should the occasion arise, but there is little doubt to the fact that his whole life and effort are dedi- cated to the cause of our racial ad- vancement. Nothing else matters. THE IMPORTANCE of this five mil- lion doflar endowment fund is not to be gleaned from the opportunities it will give the two schools to expand. Rather. it is in focusing the mind of the nation upon the advantages to be gained by giving the Negro youth an opportunity to live a useful life—useful to both him- self and the nation. Nor will the Negro and the nation reap all the benefits which should proceed from the success: ful termination of the campaign; all schools. both higher and industrial, and all races should be benefited. LOOKING over the long list of con: tributors, one sees the names of many men who, hitherto, far from contribu: ting to the cause of Negro education. ave actually thrown impediments in ts path. Through Dr. Moton these men have been made to sec the light of new day. The South itself, which all “he while has been collecting taxes from Negrocs for educational purposes and aiving little in return and which, if it tid its dutv. would make it unnecessary ‘or philanthropists in the North to edu- ate citizens entrusted to its care, will « compelled to take cognizance of the chievement and may lend a helping “and.

COLONEL ARTHUR LITTLE has resigned, his intention of giving up the command of the famous 369th Infantry, after many years of dis tinguished service. We are sorry to see him go and we are glad to see him go. Sorry because he had many qualities which fitted him for the post, and giad because his going is a sign of progress which should bring us a little nearer our one aim —to see this famous regiment officered efficiently by Negroes. If this aim i8 not realized we do not need any regiment at all. NOW that he has resigned, what of the future? Should our aim be realized immediately or should we enter upon another long period of watchful waiting? IN OUR OPINION a Negro colonel should be ape pointed immediately to succeed Colonel Little. Experience has taught us that a policy of watch: fal waiting will not bring us any nearer our aim than we were ten years ago. Mistakes may be made by a Negro commander the same as they would by a white commander, should one be named to succeed Colonel Little. Why shouldn't we be as tolerant of the mistakes made by one of our own as we would be of mistakes made by a white person? Even Colonel Little made mistakes in his administration of the regiment, but he overcame most of them. IT IS UNTRUE that a man must have a fortune to be the colonel of a National Guard Regiment. This is but one of the damnable lies used as a weapoa against the promotion of a colored man to the post. A National Guard Regiment in peace- time is more than a military organization. It is a vast social organization designed to help young men become real men, healthy, strong, virile. It should help them to five useful fives and be of service to the community in its varied activities. Incidentally, and incidentally only, it gives them military training so that in time of war’ they will be able to form the first line of defense for the state and nation. A WHITE COLONEL at best is capable of carry- ing out only the incidental part of this program— military training—at this time. This is not as it should be, but it is true, nevertheless. There should be no Negro regiment and no white regis meats in the State of New York, but there are and will be for many a year to come. State Regiments should be made up of citizens of men of all races living in defined localities, but. they are not. If we must have a Jim-Crow regiment, it must be Jim Crow all the way, from the lowest to the highest position at its disposal, from the buck private to the colonel. We must refuse to accept any other kind at this time. NEW YORK-CITY has men like John E. Nail, Captain M. V. Boutte, Commander of the Colonel Young Post of the American Legion; Major Frank Chisolm, to say nothing. of several men already within the ranks whose qualities of leadership fit them for the post and who should be able to muas- ter the purely military side of a regiment in a few weeks. This was done during the World War un- der adverse circumstances and it can be done again. There are two tiewtenant-colonels in the regular army whose services, if needed, may be draited temporarily, at least, ior a federalized unit. There are still other men all over the State, like Sergeant Dean, now detailed at West Point as in- structor in the cavalry branch of the service. Dering the World War Sergeant Dean had a ms jor’s commission. He should be given an opportu= nity for that larger service which is his by merit and would be were it not for our child-like indis- position to walking alone—a step which sooner or later we will be forced to take. ‘THERE IS NO BETTER TIME than right now to demand that a Negro colonel be appointed cont mander of the 369th Infantry.
