ABBOTT FIRES STAFF SHORTAGE OVER $125,000 SOME absorbing events are taking place in the courts. In Ohio, the Supreme Court has just overruled a writ of certiorari involving the Woodlawn rural school case, regarding the segregation of Negro pupils in the lower grades. It is stated in the record that the writ was sought upon the ground of "general public interest," a ground which it is said the court refused to recognize. In the United States Supreme Court, the so-called Curtis case, involving a contract estopping colored people from purchasing certain restricted property, is pending for argument, upon appeal. In New York, several cases are pending involving the hard-headed refusal of two or three ignorant whites, who persist in ignoring the Levy bill, which provides penalties for discrimination against colored people in public places. Appeals, that is to say, appeals from court to court, have done more to procure civil rights for colored people than any other step. In all the celebrated cases involving Negroes the all-important question has been to make the appeal upon the right grounds; for a court of record cannot consider matter do hora (outside) of the record; and a motion based upon untenable grounds is usually overruled. Contractural, constitutional and other questions of public interest are often appealable upon the same grounds; then, again, he appeals from different elements of different phases of law growing out of the same base. One of the first cases ever placed upon the docker of the Interstate Commerce Commission, regarding Jim Crow cars, never came to trial upon merits because of errors of form and procedure which estopped the further consideration of the case. In other courts friendly GOV. SMITH VETOES BILL INTRODUCED BY BILLUPS Believed That This Action Was Taken Because of Remote Possibility of Electing Justice of Negro Birth When Governor Smith vetoed the Billups Court Bill, dividing the Seventh District of the Municipal Court, last Thursday, he struck the Harlem voters a blow which will be returned the next time he is a candidate for office in this State. This seems to be the consensus of opinion in Harlem, for not only Negro Republicans, but many Negro Democrats, were anxious to see the bill signed. In his memorandum of the Billups Bill, which was vetoed along with 18 other bills, Governor Smith discussed the question of home rule, salary increases and economy, which have little to do with the Billups Bill. Assemblyman Billups Bill was not even mentioned directly in the message. It has been stated that all 18 bills were vetoed in order to pass over the bill redistricting the municipal court in Harlem and in support of this Governor Smith stated that he regretted very much having to veto the Fearon-Jenks Bill, also calling for a reorganization of the municipal courts, supposedly because it increased the salaries of justice. The Fearon Jenks Bill was passed upon the recommendation of an unofficial commission appointed by Smith himself and made up of representation of the bar associations BOY SEES HIS FATHER KILLED BY UNIDENTIFIED WHITE MAN Eugene Fowler of Bronx Struck on Head by Brick Hurled at Him After Accidentally Brushing Against Murderer. While walking on Morria avenue and 146th street Sunday at 7:45 P.M., Eugene Fowler. 40, 484 College avenue, was struck on the head with a brick thrown by an unknown white man and was killed. Eugene Jr., 11 years of age, said that he and his father were on the way to feed the horses of the coal company for which the elder Fowler works, when his father accidentally brushed against two white men. He apologized, but one of the men refused to be pacified and a quarrel ensued, during which the unknown slayer struck Fowler. According to the boy, his father fought the man off, when he picked up a brick from a nearby pile and hurled it, striking Fowler on the temple. The slayer died as Fowler fell. The cries of bystanders brought Policeman Muldoon of Alexander avenue station to the scene. Dr. Berger, from Lincoln Hospital, arrived shortly after in an ambulance summoned by Muldoon, but Fowler was already dead. The body was taken to Fordham Morgue. A number of children in the neighborhood were immediately rounded up by Detectives McCourt and Branano. From them and the boy a fairly accurate description of the slayer was learned, as well as his companion. Fowler had left his wife at home getting ready to go to church, and had gone to the stables to feed the horses. On the way the two had to pass an excavation in the street when Fowler and the two-white men encountered one another in the narrow passage. Ruding that poker playing is no crime, even if it is for money. Maginrate Barrett freed 18 men who had been arrested in an apartment at 109 East 100th street. "If people are to be arrested for playing poker," he said, "you would be able to arrest me in my club tonight. We play poker there almost every evening." It was reported last week that Leonard Kip Rhinelander has been disinherited because of his marriage to Miss Alice Bentrice Jesus and from whom he is now seeking an annulment of the marriage in the courts. The Utility Club, Miss Ruth Mary Younger, president, and Miss Caroline George, treasurer, has contributed $85 to the Katy Perry Home, 163 West 19th street, to help carry on its work. Benjamin Adair, 29, 61 West 195th street, known as "See-Les," was shot to death Tuesday at 3:25 A.M., on the sidewalk in front of 69 West 135th street by four men all of whom escaped in a taxi, numbered 034800. Patrolman William Schneitges, who was on duty in the vicinity, rushed to the scene. He summoned Dr. Rosenberg from Harlem Hospital, but when the latter arrived Adair was already dead from the shot which took effect in his abdomen. Adair and the four men were quarrelling on the sidewalk, when one of them drew an automatic and fired one shot at him. As he crumpled to the sidewalk the four jumped into a passing cab and drove away. It is said that all four are unknown to the police. Witnesses of the affair are John Glover, 313 West 144th street; John Moore, 69 West 135th street, and Robb Jones, 55 West 135nd street. The trials and tribulations of Ulysses, Homer's hero in the Odyssey, seem trivial as compared with that of Edward Burke, 255 West 136th street. Burke left New York as chief steward of the S.S. Booker T. Washington, of the Black Cross Navigation Co. He returned last week as a dishwasher on the S.S. Panama, of the Panama Navigation Co. According to Burke, trouble with the Black Cross ship began in Philadelphia, where the engines broke down. One day after leaving-port, he said that "the boys nearly burned up the ship. They built a fire in the fo'castle, saying that they were cqld and set it afire." (Preston News Service.) DUNN, N. C., April 27.—Norman Ross, a young white man, was commanded to Harrett County jail Wednesday without bond when he waived a preliminary hearing on the charge of arraea. Ross is charged with, and admits, starting the fire which resulted in the death of Joseph Monk. an aged colored man, and destroyed property to S. S.

They built a fire they were cold and set it afire. After some more diligently at Norfolk, Va., they left, arriving at Harlem, where the ship was held for a debt of the Black Star Line. When this was settled they left for Kingston, Jamaica. Here the ship needed a new shipment and the crew of Shoreward & Co. was given the contract to put in a new ship. It cost $2,500, which the ship was unable to pay, with the result that it was held in Kingston for one month. During this time, he said, the men, who were all grown and had been selected at warden, brought women and run on the (Continued on Page 2.) tailing around $20,000 here on Monday night. April 13. Gen. Manager Jones Chief Editorial Writer and Bookkeeper Out William H. Gaines, Dining Car Waiter, Held for Illegal Possession of Revolver Sobbing on the stand Mrs. Ludie Gaines, 237 West 141st street, told Magistrate Marsh, in the Heights Court Monday morning, that her husband, William H. Gaines, 38, dining car waiter, had awakened her at 3 A. M. April 25; and pointing a revolver at her had threatened to kill her and then himself, saying that he was tired of life. Mrs. Gaines further produced several dresses in court which she charged her husband had slashed from top to bottom. Gaines denied pointing the automatic at his wife and said that he kept the weapon in his safe, where he had placed it some weeks before, having taken it from another waiter on security for a loan. He also denied cutting the dresses, and said he had found them cut, along with some suits of his when he went home. He declared that the reason for his wife's charges was because he spake to her for having stayed late at a dance. The pair were married seven years age at City Hall and have one child. Galenus was once separated and blamed his present troubles on his mother-in-law. He admitted that he was intoxicated on the morning in question. Policeman Stanford said that he found the revolver jocked in an inner drawer of Galenus' safe. Gaines was dismissed on the tollary charge, but was held on the revolver charge in $500 bill for Special Sections. He said that he has been with the Lehigh Valley for 13 years. Mrs. Miriam Hungina, mother of Cryl V. Briggs, editor of The Crusader, passed away Tuesday, April 21, and was buried her home, 990 West 123rd street, on Friday afternoon. Adalah Howell, under-taker, was in charge of the funeral. Interment was made Friday in St. Nicholas's Cemetery. In the meantime, Levine also found his radio set missing. Some one had apparently entered by way of the dumbwaiter and taken it away. Later it was discovered under a fruit stand near the building, where Thomas is alleged to have hid it. Thomas was held in $1,000 bail Monday for a hearing in the Heights Court by Magistrate Marsh. SEEKS WITNESSES TO STREET CAR ACCIDENT If Miss Elizabeth Dittonhoefer, white, of 9 South 138 street, Minneapolis, who was thrown from the running board of her open Lenox avenue car at 16th street September 7 last and painfully injured, can locate any witnesses to the accident, she plans to have the case reopened. Mrs. Dittonhoefer's case was heard recently, but she lost it because of her inability to locate witnesses to the accident. She has been inconsistent for about eight months. Mrs. Dittmanner related to a representative for The Amsterdam News that two colored men witnessed the accident and offered to take her to her home, but that they were restrained from doing so by a white man. At that time she lived in 160th street. She believes that if she is able to leave officer of these two men and rope the case she can successfully present a suit for damages. DR. RAWLINGS ILL. Dr. H.

IN GREATER NEW YORK BLUEWHERE 5c DEFENDER ALSO PARTS WITH ROSCOE SIMMONS --- A. L. JACKSON, GEN'L MANAGER --- HARPER, EDITOR (By Telegraph to The Amsterdam News) CHICAGO, Ill., April 28.—Shortages amounting to $125,000 have been uncovered in the office of the Chicago Defender by auditors checking up accounts at the instance of Robert S. Abbott, publisher and owner. No arrests have been made, but Phil A. Jones, general manager; Roscoe Conkling Simmons, columnist; J. Delos Bell, bookkeeper, and Alfred Anderson, chief editorial writer and purchasing agent, have been summarily dismissed. Notice of the dismissals was inserted in last week's Defender, but no inkling was given as to the underlying causes. Jones, Simmons and Anderson have been with the Defender almost since its inception. Jones, it is alleged, lived a fast life, spending considerable time in the East. He, it said, had overdrawn his salary, which is said to have been over $6,000 per year. He owned a fine Packard automobile. Anderson has written the Defender editorials from the beginning, and was for many years clerk at the Provident Hospital. In his capacity as purchasing agent, he is said to have realized one-fourth of a cent on each pound of newsprint paper and ink purchased. As the Defender uses a large amount of paper and ink, these two items would probably run into over $1,000 a month. Anderson was not the spendthrift Jones is reported to be. He lived modestly, being satisfied to ride in a "fiflower." Consequently, though out of employment, he is believed to have accumulated much money. Roscoe Simmons, leading light of the Lincoln League, a Republican organization; spellbinder, who mixed the qualities of a comedian with his creatory, is well known all over the country. He is charged with over-padding his expense account. He is distantly related to Boomer T. Washington. MAGAZINE INVOLVED Mr. Abbott probably sensed that something was wrong when the Reflexion Managine made its appearance some weeks ago with James as chairman of the Board of Directors and J. Delos Bell, Secretary-Treasurer. The Reflexion was very pretentious and the cost of the first issue probably amounted to over $10,000. One thousand dollars was given for the title. It is alleged that at least $3,000 of Defender money went into this magazine. Bell beckers of the Defender, in said to have purchased a car with a $750 Defender check, the stab of which showed only $50. Brun deol, it is said, was delivered to the house of the quartet and changed to the December. Of the star, Anderson is the only one holding real, estate property. It is not, known, whether artificial procedures are anticipated by the other. He arrests have been New Forge. A. L. Jackson, graduate of New York, district secretary of the New York Banking Branch of the T. M. G. A.

Lester Harper formally managing editor of the Disaster, becomes general purchaser event. Of the old stock, Frank Young, for many years a faithful employee, new opening editor, and Terry Langston, theatrical editor, remain.

TIP TOP CAFETERIA | "Black Bill," Cuban Star, Proved a Terror to Greek Champion at the Commonwealth Last Saturday Eddie Wagner Hung It Heavy Upon Alfred Simmons, While Bruce Flowers Slugged Billy Wiley to a Standstill — Loayza Meeting Paluso Saturday Night—Arbuckle Trading Wallops With Sheller Eddie Kid Wagner. Philadelphia lightweight, won the decision over Alf Simmons, of England, in the feature 12-round battle at the Commonwealth S. C. Saturday evening. The affair was a body punching carnival from start to finish, the men standing with heads locked for minutes at a time and hammering both mitts to the other's mid-riff. There were no knockdowns and each round resembled the one preceding it. Wagner weighed 136, and Simmons was two pounds lighter. Black Bill, Cuban flyweight champion, again scored a victory in the local ring when he outpointed Anthony Pakis of Greece in the semifinal 12 round, event. The colored lad made his first showing at the Commonwealth two weeks ago and won in impressive style over Bobby Ruttenberg. On Saturday he repeated his performance, although Pakis forced him to extend himself to the limit. After losing the first three rounds, the Cuban opened up in the following nine sessions and took every one of them by comfortable margins. Pakis was fairly clever at infighting, but at distance stuff. Black Bill easily had the better of the argument. Pakis appeared to tire in the closing rounds, and the Cuban had little trouble in finding him, especially with a left hook. Black Bill weighed 113½, and Pakis was 112. The six round preliminary, staged float on the card, went to Bruce Flowers of New Rochelle after a bitter slugfest with Billy Wiley of Harlem. The men battled all over the place, with Wiley being the aggressor and Flowers hammering in hard wallops as he came in. Wiley weighed 127, and Flowers was 134. In the four that went on after the final, Danny Terris of the East Side was too clever for Jimmy Braxton of Harlem. The club stepped out with brand new rope and a new lighting arrangement. Jimmy Crowley was the referee for the evening, with Charlie Meighan and George Kelly acting as judges. Pete Prunty did the announcing, and Eddie Munson held the watch. Bill Eck Schrödinger, Nike The patrons of the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem will be given a second twelve-round treat on Saturday night in conjunction with the lightweight tussle between Stanislas Loayza, South American champion, and Lew Paluso, Salt Lake City idol, who are down to appear in the final twelve-round. Matchmaker Joe McMahon has just secured Buck Arbucker the Prisco Flash, who stopped Dixie Diamond in his first start and then whipped Harry Gaba, to oppose Bobby Sheller, the Bronx star. This means the patrons of the popular uptown club are in for a pair of treats, which will be productive of some great milling. The remainder of the program consists of a six-rounder between Georgia Cuneo of the West Side and Mike Satnick of Brooklyn, and a four-round opener featuring Artie Bloom and Bill Williams. Mosquitoes Think Well of Benny Hall JERSEY CITY. April 31.—Benny Hall, one of the best fighters of our race group and seemingly unnoticed, was signally honored last Saturday night. April 15 by being given a midnight surprise supper at Gene Flaherty's Chop Suey Parlor. Benny fought Aurie Pisano to a rattling six-round draw at the didgetwood Club earlier in the evening. "The Wagon Fliers of Greenwich Village," who arranged the monster affair, presented Benny with a new straw hat decorated with a pretty pink band hat fit. Al Rood, who knocked out Yale Oklum on the same card in the first round, did the "Charleston" and sang "My Buddy" for Bunny. The Wagon Fixer' Quartette. Dick Corbett. Tony Perrone. Bob Deane and Nick Shevlin, sang "In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree." This closed the entertainment and a motion was passed that Benny he known as "Pat" Benjamin Hall. Thereupon the handcuffs were put on Shevlin and Perrone and she soup and fish served.

All Set for Big Event Fri. Night Hilldale Defeats Harrisburg Giants in First League Tilt, 6 to 2, on Home Grounds PHILADELPHIA. April 27-With all the frills of an opening day and before the largest crowd that ever swarmed Hilldale Park, Ed. Bolden's Darby champs started the league season in a manner that delighted the home contingent, when they handed Colonel Strothers' invaders a 6 to 2 lacing. Nip. Wintera, southpaw pitching ace of the Hilldale squad, held the Giants well in check, while his team mates pounded out a decisive victory. The five blows that were registered against Winters' shoots were well scattered, and the home team was holding a substantial lead when the Giants garnered their tallies in the fourth and sixth frames. Kenneth "Ping" Gardner was Manager Charleston's choice to start the fray for the Giants, but evidently Oscar's bunch was bad. The Hildale batters shelled Gardner of the peak in less than two innings and amassed all of their six tallies from 'the offerings of diminutive "Ping." Dalty Cooper was rushed to the hill after two Hildale batters had been retired in the second inning and handed the home team blanks for the remainder of the fray. Two home run driver, one by George Carr in the first inning and another by Giant Thomas in the second frame, really spelled fills for Gardner's efforts on the mound. Both drips cleared the fence in center and left center, that have been moved back to enlarge the field. The Harrisburg Giants presented a new combination in the infield with Ben Taylor at first and Walter Cannady at shortstop. Cannady was the only Giant to collect more than one hit. Oscar Charleston, the Harrisburg leader, went hitless, but lugged in both of the Giants' runs. The Elks' Band furnished music for the occasion and Mr. Land Trent Gordon, prominent Philadelphia leader in the Welfare Department of City Hall, tested out the first ball.

Due to the two travelling clubs in the circuit and the fact that some of the clubs play but one day per week at the home parks, it will be necessary to adapt the 1925 schedule in order to effect a 70-game layout for each team. Eastern League Season Gets Under Way Before Enthusiatic Fans Owing to a somewhat ragged start in the league schedule, the Harrisburg Giants and the Hillidale Club got away in front of the other league teams. The opening at Hillidale Park last Saturday resulted in the home team stepping out with 1,000 per cent, by virtue of its 6 to 2 victory over the Harrisburg team. Concerted action swung practically all of the other clubs will start around May 1. On the first of May, George Robinson's Pocomache of Wilmington will make their bow to the fans, with the Hillidale Club as the visiting attraction. At the same time, the Baltimore Son, will invade the pair of Colossal Strother's Giants at Harrisburg, playing a two-day stand. The Cuban Stars will show their Warriors for the first time of the season to the patrons of Hillidale Park May 2. The Lincoln Giants and the Baltimore Block Sox throw open their parks for the league season May 3. At Protectory Oval, in New York the Hilldale Club will oppose the Lincoln Giants in their league opener, while at Maryland Park in Baltimore, the Cuban Stars are down on the bill to meet the dark-based crew of the Monumental City. A matter that is very likely to cause complications in the league standing has been taken up by the commissioners. The fact that several of the league clubs have stepped out and leased additional parks which they will operate as a home field has raised the question relative to additional games that have been booked among league clubs since the drafting of a league schedule. Whether or not these contests can be classed as league games has been ruled by the commissioners in the following manner: Unless weather conditions interfere, the games set forth in the league schedule will count in the official average. If it happens that more than ten games are listed between two clubs, the first ten games will count. If less than ten games are listed, the contesting clubs are privileged to add league games to make up the quota by both clubs notifying the commission 72 hours in advance of any proposed additional league game. Other contents classed as exhibition games are permitted to enable the clubs to nil out schedules in neutral parks or at home.

President Scott, of the Amateur Billiard Players' Association, certainly gave his fellow club member, Charlie Nicholas, a good trimming last week. By so doing he has for the present lost the name of Joe Grim. Alvin J. Moses, feature sports writer, and C. E. Scott, president of the Colored Amateur Billiard Players' Association, were invited to be the guests of the New York Roomowners at their annual banquet. Pop Henry, old member of the association now in business in New Rochelle, was in last week to see his old friends, Willis and Minor. He reports success as his returns for honest effort. John Mead is improving in his billiard game as was demonstrated when he wiped out several of his previous defeats last week. Among the bunch of musicians playing pocket billiards at the Emporium, W. E. Thompson stands out. Almost in every contest his opponent pays for the time. Thompson won't play on any tables but the 5x10 professional. Every one around the Emporium is all lit up over the coming 300-point pocket billiard match between Linsay Farr, champion of Harlem, and Toy Biewares, former champion of Cleveland, O. This match is for a stake and the championship of Harlem on a professional 5x10 table, special. Morehouse Wins From Clark University, 10-7 In a veritable "comedy of errors," Morehouse defeated Clark University, 10 to 7. Neither team was up to the usual form; as a result the game was one of the most loose ever played in Atlanta. Morehouse scored two in the first inning on Dunn's triple, singles by idlett and E. Williams and an error by Young. Clark's shortstop Clark tied the score in its half of the first inning on Young's double to right and successive singles by Hendon and Jones. Morehouse came back and scored one in the second, when Rogers singled to right, stole second and scored on Daniels' double to left. Clark then took the lead in her half of the second by scoring there runs. Travis was hit by a pitched ball, Robinson fled out to J. Williams in center; Toles singled, sending to third. Young again hit to right for two bases, scoring Travis and Toles. Young was out at third trying to stretch his double into three bats. Harden reached first on Hawkins' wild throw and kept on to second when Duda let the ball get away, reached third on a wild throw by pitcher and scored on McPharland's single. In the third, Nombeus scored. Concert and Dance AMPIN OF MUSIC May 8th Reservations:—Mrs. Oscar H. Williams, 125 West 143rd St., Phone Andubon 4822; Mrs. H. N.

Wilmington, Delaware, sided over the meeting and evening, the first, of whom was D. Slowe. Dean of Women. I cred the annual address. The National Association of College Women held its second annual convention in Baltimore, April 16-18, inclusive. The convention opened formally on Thursday evening, April 16, at 8 o'clock, with a public meeting in the N.M.C.A. building. Mrs. Vashti Murphy welcomed the group in behalf of the College Alumnae Club of Baltimore. Anna F. Brodnas, Wilmington, Delaware, National Vice-President, presided over the meeting and presented the speakers of the evening, the first of whom was the National President, Lucy D. Slowe, Dean of Women, Howard University, who deliv In this speech, Dean Slowe gave the origin, purpose and history of the National Association of College Women, stating that it was conceived by the College Alumnus Club of Washington, D. C., for the purpose of uniting all colored college women into one association for the improvement of the education of colored women throughout the United States. (Mrs.) Lucy Messer Holmes and Mary Cronwell were largely influential in bringing about this organization which, at first temporary, became permanent in 1924. The National Association of College Women embraces to date the parent branch in Washington and other branches located in Baltimore. Wilmington (Delaware State). New York City. Cincinnati. Cleveland. Chicago. Kansas City. Portsmouth. Petersburg (Vn.). Charleston (W. Vn.). St. Louis and Los Angeles. The association has definite desires: first, to improve the educational conditions of Negro girls, to raise educational standards in the universities. The this end it is making a survey of the various colleges of this country in which women are trained. Such investigations are directed toward the housing, physical education, medical inspection, health, recreation, and social environment of the students; toward the adequate training, compensation and general treatment of teachers; toward dormitory discrimination and the quality of opportunity for girls in the Northern and Western colleges especially. The association desires further to stimulate study in the need of research for women of intellectual attainment and, finally, to establish itself as an educational agency for scholarship, to establish for itself such a reputation for doing work that it can be entrusted with funds for the development of women. The president emphasized the singleness of purpose which characterised the association, and expressed the hope that it would adhere tenaciously to this purpose. Other speakers on the association's program included: Charles If Wesley, professor of history Howard University, who gave on Friday evening, a very inspiring address on the subject. "A Challenge to the College Woman"; Mr Maurice Moss, who, at the lunch conference, Sharp Street Community House, headquarters for the association in convention, dis- BRADHURST 1099 LATIMER'S ANTISEPTIC METHOD At Milady's Vanity Shoppe Full Course In Beauty Culture Taught 200 WEST 140TH STREET of College Women held its Baltimore, April 16-18, inclu- formally on Thursday eve- with a public meeting in the welcomed the group in behalf of Baltimore.

Peters, vocational adviser, Goucher College who spoke on "The Orientation of the College Woman." In addition to these the following members of the association led in discussions Mrs Anna M. Dingle "How May the Association Be Financed"; Mrs. Helen D. Grossler "The Organization of Branches"; Grace Coleman "Living Conditions Among Colored Girls in Northern Colleges"—the results of an investigation conducted throughout the year. Much of the day Friday was spent in the registration of members, and in the reports of committees, sectional directors and other officers. These revealed the fact that the aims of the association herefore mentioned were already being carried out. On Friday evening, members of the association enjoyed a very beautiful reception given in the chapel of Bethel Church by the Baltimore Branch. During the course of the convention attention was directed to the fact that the association had published two journals which give accounts of the conference attending the temporary organization and of the first convention. A letter of congratulations was sent to Mrs. Anna J. Copper, who recently received the degree Ph.D. from the University of Borbonne, Paris, France. The following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: President, Lucy D. Slowe; vice- Morning-ide 2741 Hma.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 29, 1928 Y.W.C.A. Activities The carnival in on! Gayety reigns from basement to roof. The cafeteria is very gay with its airy, fluffy decorations; the lobby boasts rich Persian bands and streamers of warm orange, red and blue; the large club room, as is fitting the dignity of a fashion parade, is subdued, but elegant with its mawes and grays; the gym can hardly be recognized because it is swathed in fuchsia and violet, and the crystal pool is a place of shimmering beauty. Those who do not come to the carnival miss a gorgeous sight and fun galore. Friday, May 1, is the last night. Rev.

Vanamee, former acting director of the Hall of Fame, and Dr. Emmett J. Scott, of Howard University. Dr. Scott's message read in part: "All of us have the greatest admiration for the splendid manner in which you have kept to the front the matter of having the claims of Mr. Douglas favorably in connection with the Hall of Fame." Mrs. Vanamee said: "I send you my good wishes and sincere interest in your efforts to honor Frederick Douglas. His life is an inspiration to all." George Young told of Frederick Douglass as he knew him. He told of his early impressions of Douglass and of the inspiration he received from hearing him speak on several occasions. "He was never known to compromise." said Mr. Young. Mrs. Elizabeth Ross Haynes told of the early struggles of Douglass in overcoming obstacles, and that his life furnished a fine example of heroic effort. Willis N. Huggins, a teacher in the Bustwick High School, told of the historical significance of the movement to have Douglas placed in the Hall of Fame. He said that more and more the fame of Douglas is becoming known to the people of this generation. Frederick Johnson represented the Omega Psi Phi fraternity and told of the interest that was manifest at the national convention of the fraternity in Washington when the name of Douglas was endorsed for Hall of Fame honors.

The convention was opened by the retiring grand President, Dr Leroy Baxter, of Newark, N. J. by Baxter made a stirring speech in which he admonished the men to uphold the lofty ideals of the organization. The most important item of the convention was the discussion of a provision for hospital appointments for future medical graduates. A commission was appointed to make recommendations to the grand chapter in order that the hundreds of newly medical graduates might secure internships in various Class A hospitals. The various delegates all gave reports on progress from their respective chapters. The only entertainment was a smoker given in Newark by the members of the Delta Chapel. This was given Thursday evening at the Cotton Building. Tales were set with various articles prepared by Newark's most esteemed culinary artist. The feature of the evening was a vocal solo by Dr. (Bubber) Parka, accompanied by Dr. (Bull) Terry. At an early hour in the morning the Chi song was sung with antithesis and expression.

"Builder of Hole and Respective Sewn of All Kindr". ODESSA 2200 SEVENTH AVENUE NEW YORK CITY Toll. Mansingville 0000 NORTHEASTERN LIFE GETS LICENSE This Week By Ernest Rice McKinney (PRESTON NEWS SERVICE) bre-rattling, we award the red-hot helmet to the Manufacturers' Record. This publication is put forth every week in Baltimore, Md., and is dedicated, according to its own admission, to the development of the South and Southeast. In the issue of April 23rd this rampant capitalist screaming eagle goes into fifty-seven varieties of fits over the "very imminent Bolshevik uprising," as the Record says, and pacifism. The Record sees RED in everything and everywhere. According to this ancient thinking sheet, this country is in the greatest possible danger of being overthrown and Mr. Trotsky or his emissary seated in the White House. The editor of the Manufacturers' Record has had a sort of John, the Revelator, vision. He sees the streets running with blood, our institutions unrooted, the Christian religion banished to Siberia, and free-love taking the place of monogamy. Because all of these things are just around the corner, the good editor feels that all of the parishers and others opposed to war should be sent to jail or to hell. What we need, according to this journal, is a bigger army and navy, more airplanes and more poison gas. And it is not only on account of the Reds that we need to go constantly armed to the teeth. An armed truce is necessary to KEEP the Colored races of the world in LACO. The editor has discovered that the Reds are isseething—getting frisby—to speak. What they need is a dose of what the Haitians got from our beloved marines. I can readily understand why the white South is the tail-end of the earth. It reflects what it is fed on. It is fed on IGNORANCE and TOMMYROT by those who have pocketbooks to be filled and kept filled by commercial exploitation. It has been customary ever since the armistice to clothes this "commercial" motive in the habiliments of patriotism; take the rostrum and yell: "The Reds are coming!" In this way the dignity of both the law and the PROFITS is maintained. In the issue of April 22 the Record tells us that the Negro is a more desirable citizen than the foreigner. To be sure, he is. He is more easily lached, as Mr. Dooley says. And, too, he can be used as a strike-breaker. This makes him more desirable. Also the Negro works for less wages than the foreigner. This makes him most desirable. I shall continue to read the Manufacturers Record, so that I may know when to take to my stormceller to escape the bombs of the Reda. Also in order that I may be in position to tell Negroes what nice things are said about them by this steadfast proponent of the Bourbon South. $20 MISSING, WOMAN CHARGED WITH THEFT Holding that her lone presence in the house justified the accusation of the alleged theft of $20 by her employer, Mrs. Gussie Scharf, 831 Forest avenue, Magistrate Well ordered Mrs. Lovie Washington, 41, 26 West 132d street, held for the grant in $500 bail.

Reading Club Banquets Balloch Has Been on Howard University Staff Over Forty Years Members of the Howard Reading Club, which is composed of graduates of Howard Medical School, banqueted their dean, Edward Balloch, on Friday evening. April 17. He has been teaching at Howard tor 45 years, yet this is the first time that any group of Howard alumni has so honored him. The banquet was given at the prince avenue Banquet Rooms, which includes Fifth avenue and 23d street. It is the impressive affair ever given by any group of medical men in New York City. The master of ceremonies was Dr. P. M. Murray. When Dr. C. B. Powell presented Dean Ballah a token, a Howard gold watch, on behalf of the club, Dr. O'Donnell, superintendent of Believee Hospital, spoke of his connection with colored internets at Believee. He felt that they would always be represented there, because they did efficient work. He further stated that colored doctors must eventually be in Harlem Hospital, and he remarked that he could not see why colored people themselves objected to the presence of colored doctors in Harlem Hospital. So far most of the objection has come from colored residents of Harlem, he said. Dr. Crump, one of our leading New York surgeon paid a wonderful tribute to Dr. S. L. Carceon, of Washington. He had seen Dr. Carceon operate in Washington, and remarked if it were necessary for him to have an operation, he would not object to Dr. Carceon. Dr. C. Burbank, new professor of medicine, outgained the life of the late Prof. Henry Parker, who for many years taught at Howard. He said Dr. Parker was both an inspiration to himself and the student body.

INSURANCE COMPANY LICENSED TO DO BUSINESS Northeastern Life, With Headquarters in Newark, Will Begin Issuing Policies—First Old Line Negro Company in East. Announcement has just been made of the licensing by the Superintendent of Insurance at Trenton, N. J., on Monday, April 27, of the Northeastern Life Insurance Company, with headquarters at Newark, N. J. This is the first old line legal reserve life insurance company organized by colored people in the eastern section of the country above the Mason and Dixon line, and marks an epoch in the progress of the race along sound business lines. The company's charter was filed in the Insurance Department on April 28, 1924, and the State allowed only one year in which the capital of $100,000 must be raised and deposit made with the State for the benefit of the policyholders. The full capital was paid in within the year, the examination made by the State, the deposit made and the license received within this time, the shortest period ever allowed by any State for the organization of any such company by our race. It is a remarkable accomplishment, particularly in the face of the recent upheavals among Negro businesses, including the passing of the Standard Life to white people and the Brown and Starrens failure. It speaks volumes for the work done by Harry H. Pace and his associates in the organization of the company. It is significant that not a dollar of this money was drawn upon from banks of the race, which have formerly contributed largely to such efforts. Mr. Pace appealed to every race banning and financial institution and to the recently organized National Negro Finance Corporation, and to Dr. Moton for aid, but without success. Many of the institutions even refused to reply to his letters. Others outright denied the company could not be organized at time and advised him to quit. Officials of the National Negro Finance Corporation refused aid and suggested that the capital already raised be turned over to them. Dr. Moton bury with the Tumbeque Downsowment campaign, could not help. With a determination that would not admit defeat, within the closing two weeks of the limited time he no improved the necessity of the organization upon the minds and hearts of race men in New Jersey and New York, City that they poured out to the company stocks and bonds and money in the form of payment of the capital and portion of the surplus, and thereby the company a living fact. Every dollar of the money was raised from individuals of our own people, not a bank nor a corporation participating in any way. It is significant that the Northern comes into being just as the Standard goes out of existence. Mr. Perry was associated with Mr. Perry in the formation of the Standard and resigned because he disagreed with Mr. Perry's policy of expansion, which proved fatal. Many people misunderstood Pace them and thought he was wrong, but the predictions he made when he left Standard came true, and that they strengthened the confidence of men in the East in his business judgment, so that they were willing to book their confidence in him with thousands of donors. Associated with Pace in the organization and contributing urgently to its success were James C. Bishock, James K. Bishock, J. W. Warren and Charles J. Williams of Jersey City; T. A. Dishman, J. P. Quneman, Jr. H. Adelah Awuwu, William H. Wartham, Dr. F. M. Jacobs, Dr. O. M. Walker, Dr. P. M. Murray, Gen. C. Barnett and Gen. K. Mayes of New York; John R.

In a four short weeks you will be able to out and about with all of your boys, after months in the school room, on the city streets and in crowded parks, will have an opportunity for clear conjunction with nature. The thoughts of many of these boys as they "throw away their books and papers" will be turning summer-camped. This year a new opportunity will be to building the owed boys of the Main Street district. They will have a chance to get away from the city and encounter the celebration and joy of getting next nature as a result of the enactment of the West 197th Street Branch, Y. M. C. A., to the effect that it has just purchased Camp Glenwood, a beautiful camp site in the heart of the Rancho Hills on the pine-clad shores of Lake Glenwood, Saskatchewan County, New Jersey. In order that a maximum number of boys will be able to take advantage of this opportunity to visit the camp during the Summer, the rates will be below cost. To make up the deficit these low-rates will incur, this May Carnival and Dance is being given by pre-interested women in the district. The committee is headed by Harry with Barbara, and includes: Mrs. Harry Benton, Mrs. H. Bignon Dewdock, Mrs. P.J. de L. Richardson, Mrs. Landele R. Randolph, Mrs. Mayne L. Briggs, Mrs. Solomon Johnson, Mrs. U. Gorard Vincenzo, and others. The compartment is the last step in modern equipment for healthy and wholesome recreation. It location on the gently sloping slopes of the lake hurries at all times a well-trained, dry and neatly compartment. The sleeping quarters are waterproof wall tents, doubly protected by heavy sloc, which keep them dry and cool. The tents have board floors to make them comfortable and clean. There is a big kitchen used for gatherings. The lodge has the dining and kitchen. At the end of the social room there is a large open fireplace which provides a shelteral atmosphere on rainy nights. The entire lodge has wide comment windows on all sides. The camp facilities are such that make for all-round development of a boy. At Camp Glowweed boys are taught to swim and paddle a canoe and do all the things that healthy, happy boys delight in doing. Ground attention is given to ensure the health of all boy campers. A camp doctor is at hand at all times and a companion short in height to prepare what needs that to be done to the needs of grinding box. The water used by the camp comes from clear, cold springs that are absolutely pure. The camp cannion will extend over six weeks of the heated term, namely, from July 15 to August 18. The camp is equipped to accommodate fifty boys at a time. Special attention is given to camp leadership. A carefully scouted group of Christian leaders is placed in charge of the boys. Each leader undertakes the re sponsibility of seven boys. This insures practically individual attention for each boy who spends any time in the camp. The program is well planned, and every minute in camp is made to count for something. The board per boy is $5 a week, a charge that is low- than cost. This will enable those who could not otherwise afford a vacation in camp to have an opportunity to enjoy this experience which makes for all-round development of boyhood.

On Monday evening, April 20, the opening meeting was held at the Community House of Abyssinia Baptist Church, Miss Louise Jackson, president of the Lambda Chapter, providing a large number of high school girls came out to hear the views and experiences of youth speakers—and weaving them to them in New York City. 'The field of social work appeals to many young girls. So Miss Jarrett, social worker in New York City, told the girls the great advantages open to them in the form of scholarship, particularly those given by the Urban League. Miss Jarrett stressed the point that any girl who had the necessary educational requirements could win a scholarship. Miss Jarrett concluded by reminding the girls that in a large and ever growing city like New York the Sold for application of their training was unlimited. The vocation of journalism undoubtedly has tempted many, but more often than not has been ruled guided to the realm of the unattainable.

Mrs. Hall explained how necessary it is for the journalist to know a little bit of everything as well as how to impress people with that fact. Mrs. Hall advised those who would be journalists to confine themselves to the best literature and echew the "best sellers" until their journalistic careers are assured. The vocations of teaching, music, dentistry and literature were All Races to Partic in h International House to Be Scene of National Event as Part of Music Week Celebration, The interracial festival to be held during Music Week at International House on Riverside Drive and 19th street will take on the character of a national event with ambassadors and commemorative of 17 nationalities present.

Lords Vocational ce Week discussed by members of the security. Mrs. Elsa McDougall, who has taught in the public schools of New York and is at present Assistant Principal of Public School 83, encouraged those bent towards this calling to go into it with the conviction that it is one of the finest and nobest of professions. Miss Serenge Tidy, a musician of great ability, told the eager student, set the invariable wear and shine needed to attain their ambition, that the vocation, the great romance, the cultural, which one gain through it, Dr. Barbara Miller, herself a dentist discussed the profession of dentistry. Pew women have chosen this as a profession as yet, but Dr. Miller predicts that prejudices against women in dentistry will go the same way to extinction that it has in other fields and women dentists will come into their own.

The complete program for the EDITORIALS NEWS OF CHURCHES AND ORGANIZATIONS LOCAL AND SOCIETY NEWS CLASSIFIED AND REALTY ADS Baritone ICENSE JOHN H. HARRIS DOCK SNELLINGS, baritone singer and composer, who gave a recital Friday evening in Acollian Hall. ...Music... Robeson and Brown to Give Recital Paul Robeson, star of Bagnene O'Neill's "Emperor Jones" and "All God's Chillin'," who gave a recital of Negro spirituals and secular songs, together with Lawrence Brown, young colored composer and singer, has scored such a success that the Greenwich Village Theatre has announced a second recital for May 2, to accommodate the demand to hear these singers. At the first recital, on Sunday, April 19, the entire house was sold out, including standing room, and many late comers had to be turned away. The program was composed entirely of Negro songs, some of them arranged by Mr. Brown, who, in addition to singing with Mr. Robeson, played the accompaniments on the piano. In comment upon the first recital, the music critic of the New York, Evening Post declared: "An audience that taxed the capacity of the theatre heard Mr. Robeson sing and received his offerings with great enthusiasm. He was generous with his encoural. Assisting him was Lawrence Brown, who played his accompaniments perfectly and sang in several of the spirituals which called for two voices. "Mr. Roberts's voice is in an incipient, mellow bass-baritone. He plays spirituals as few interpreters of these beautiful and moving folk-songs have sung them in New York." Made to Order SUITS Critics of the other metropolitan dailies were equally favorable in their comment. The 18th annual Martin recital and dance, May 8, at New Star Café, will be given for the benefit of the school, and will be one of the musical events during Music Week.

CHURCH Dr. Cullen conducted the services at Salam Church Sunday, prescribing morning and evening. In the morning sermon the pastor emphasized the command handed down to all Christians, "Feed My Sheep." "This is an individual appeal to all Christians," he said. "Christ commanded and commanded Peter, and he commanded Christ for depth. Likewise Christ approaches us from three angles—the heart, the intellect and the soul; these must respond unreservedly before we are capable of executing the Great Command." M.T. CALVARY I. M. CHURCH The pastor spoke very instructively on the subject. "Fear and Failure." "Cowardice on the part of an individual or a people," he said, "always results in defeat and failure; people must be courageous in their endeavors when principles and the discharge of unity are at stake." In the afternoon he addressed the congregation of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, west $5d street. The offering for the day was $333. "There is, something the matter with the religious world to-day; yes, there is something radically wrong," said Pastor Strachan to his congregation Sunday night at the Harlem Second Seventh Day Adventist Church, 106-138 West 171th street. The pastor was discussing upon the theme, "The Present Status of the Religious World." Said he: "There was a time when Johann looked down from His throne above and new the religious world a shroud virgin; and that had kept His Word and had not denied His Name. But to-day the scene is change." The ecclesiastical world also a proud queen, with naught seen from his carcass with the hands having nothing, but, at the same, rigid knowledge not that she is wrotten, unmute, poor, nailed, and blind, and Jesus Christ, her spiritual being, is about to grow her out of the world with dawn." BEGIN VIRGIN ISLANDS WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM (Columbian Press Bureau) WASHINGTON, D. C.-According to a letter recently received by Hon. Jefferson S. Coase, formerly a Commissioner to the Virgin Islands under President Coolido's first administration, more than 130 natives are already at work on the steps preliminary to the installation of a permanent water supply for the towns of St. Thomas, Christiana, and Fredericksted, in the Virgin Islands. This project is in the outgrowth of a portion of the Virgin Islands Commissioners' recommendations in their report to Secretary J. Warren James J. Warren whose direction the Virgin Islands Commission was dispatched. During the closing days of the Sixty-eighth Congress an appropriation of $125,000 was made for this purpose under funds provided for the Navy Department for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1926. Labor Gains in Steel Industries WASHINGTON, D. C.—Colorado employees holding skilled occupations in the country's iron and steel industryreceive gaining slowly but surely. This fact is evidenced by the increasing number of millwrights, electric welders, molders, cormakers, furnace keepers, machine hands, crane engineers, and other artisans whose proportions are widening in the Pennsylvania, Birmingham, Ohio and Indiana steel districts, in which, prior to 1917 and 1918, semi-skilled and unskilled workers for overbalanced skilled workers in proportion to white steel hands. In this connection the policies of certain mills, particularly in Middleton, O.; Pittsburg, P.; Gary, Ind.; Birmingham, Ala., which have insisted upon health programs and pleasant working conditions for their employees, black as well as white, together with promotional opportunities, should be warmly commended as having a most helpful influence upon the advancement of the colored working classes in the iron and steel puritans. Along this line of advancement encouraging indeed are the words of the Secretary of Labor. Hon James J. Davis, who when recently addressing the Steel Workers Convention in Pittsburgh, Pa. said: "Within their line of duty and within the law, every man and every group of men, every industry and every union, can depend upon President Coolidge to be with them to the limit in the defense of rights. They can depend upon him to the force of power of his position and of the Government to punish or eradicate abuses. He realizes that modern industry, with its great combinations and great aggregations of both capital and employees, has necessarily brought many new problems for solution in our effort to work out a righteous human relationship." The slow but sure gains of Negro labor in the great steel mills have largely come from the new understanding of human relationships as found among the working mares, regardless of color—the masses which make American-made products the best products in the market of the world. With both organized and unorganized Negro labor becoming more potent each day, in council as well as on the job, to the end that human relationships among the working groups may be shaped by the same Christian creed that shapes all American progress, it is to be expected that labor gains, both profitable and peaceful, are open to follow the steel gains, and parvise all other industries common to American production.

Carey, who lives in this city and has been for more than twenty-five years the principal leader of the A. M. E. Church here, and who is chief man of the powerful financial board of the church, on his return from the board meeting stated that Chicago leads all the churches of the country in raising dollar money for the connection. Last year the Chicago annual conference raised $11,102.40. "Some have said that Chicago is indifferent, and that our church is losing ground here. That is not true. On the other hand Chicago leads the whole connection. When I came here twenty-six years ago it war though marvelous for one church to raise as much as 300 dollar money. We have any number of churches raising that amount and over. In deed both Quinn Chapel and Bethesda Churches raise more than $1,900 each. The membership has also grown greatly. We have more than five times as many members. We have built in every section of this city new churches, and we have some of the most consecrated ministers to be found anywhere. When it came to this city, there were only three Chapels Bethlehem and Stephen's Chapels, and two three struggling churches. Now, splendid churches dot the city and our property values go far over a million dollars. Of course our people are coming to this city in large numbers, and it taxes our best ability to take care of them. Following Chicago comes the Philadelphia Conference with $10,624; Baltimore Conference with $10,048.35; and East Florida Conference with $8,282; Georgia with $6,540.25; Palmetto, B. C., $6,423.45; New York, $8,300; and Atlanta, Ga., $8,229. DIST. COMMISSIONER TALKS TO METHODISTS (COLUMBIAN PRESS BUREAU) WASHINGTON, D. C.

AMERICAN AUTO SCHOOL (101 Oak, Inkestle School) 792 SUMMITTON AVENUE, NEAR 50th ST. PLAZA 1309 WELVE Colorful News "Movies" (Continued from Page 1.) judges have wetted inwardly because some Negro litigant who had a good case came up on appeal in erroneous substance, form or grounds. The question of segregated schools in the State of Ohio, which has a civil rights law, is all important one. Its principles date back to the Berea College (Kentucky) case, long since passed upon by the U.S. Supreme Court; but upon entirely different grounds than those now exiting in Ohio. It is to be hoped that appeal will be taken and the question of segregation in Ohio's school system wiped out forever. Likewise, the Curtis case in Washington, involving restricting covenants against Negroes, touches upon certain civil rights which are openly given to all American citizens, save the black man. It is to be evident duty and pleasure of counsel in court, and pleasure of law, both past and present, in presenting these cases to the country's highest tribunals. That they will do so faithfully and with a deep sense of pride, upon the proper grounds, eliminating from possible advent the decision "motion overruled," is not only our hope, but out sincere belief. Low Cost of Living Prof. E. L. Kirkpatrick (white, expert agricultural economist), has made his official report upon the living costs of families of selected localities of Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas. The expert says that average total expenditure of $611.15 expanded families is less than half of $14.46 for white families, and that a sturck terror into our hearts left our brethren down home were underfed and physical weaklings. Our grief was turned to joy, however, when we found out that of the $611.15 expended yearly per family, 53.5 per cent went for bread and meat, etc., as against only 44 per cent which the whites expended in clothing costs the colored families with the whites, the respective percentages being 17.5 and 17.7, illustrating the advantage of being able, in some instances, to spend your money where you will. In rents the whites were proportionately in the lead, with 9.7 per cent as against 6.7 for our group. Necessity, you know, is first cousin to location, and down home there exists the policy of keeping Negroes "in their places." Otherwise we are confident that the rent item would make a higher grade. Our group was moderate in their purchase of parlor suites, pianos and other home comforts, reducing this to 7 as against 2.0 for the whites. In the maintenance of health expenses paid to physicians and nurses our klinamen were 4 per cent flat with the whites, according to Prof. Kirkpatrick, who thus exploded the allegation that colored people have careless health habits. Least, but not least, Kirkpatrick discovered that colored families, who were steadily allotting 2.3 percent of their budget for insurance of life and limb, compared with 2.6 for the whites, are virtually on a parity with the latter group, be speaking conservative pride and marked evasion of the Potter's field. And we were surprised that if Avery Kirkpatrick had taken the time to measure the space occupied by the respective families, which is probably about one-half for our group of what it is for the white group, he would have discovered, we are sure, that their low cost of living is as high as that of the whites and higher perhaps.

BALTIMORE, Md., April 27.—Frederick Jennings, self-styled "spirit reader," did not break the "spell" that hung over Mrs. Ida Baylor, but he "broke" her to the extent of $30, she told Judge Duffy in Criminal Court Thursday. Mrs. Baylor said Jennings called at her home last January and told her he was on intimate terms with all the better class of "spirits." For 30 cents he offered to tell her something interesting. She paid, and he told her she would live to be 72. He then said that for $30 he would tell her something more interesting. She told him to come back next day and she would have the $30. Jennings returned and the woman gave him $10. Jennings gave her a "charm" which he said contained the $20 and she told her to wear it two days and dream on it, after which she could open it and get her $10. The woman said all she could dream about was her $20, and when she opened the "charm" the money was not there. Also, she said the "spell" that housed her was still on the job.

Arkansas School Shows Progress Agricultural, Mechanical and Normal Part of State University PINE BLUFF. Ark.-An institution which plays a large part in the advancement and development of the race in southeast Arkansas is the Agricultural Mechanical and Normal School, which is a branch of the University of Arkansas and is located in Pine Huff. This school has been in operation since April, 1876, and, although starting in a small way, its work has been of such a practical character and its supervision so efficient that to-day the school occupies a tract of twenty acres of ground in the western suburbs of Pine Bluff, upon which have been erected buildings supplying administration offices, class rooms, and mechanical shops. University Board The government of this school is vested primarily in the board of trustees of the University of Arkansas and the superintendent is the administrative head of the school, under whom there are department directors, each responsible for the development and efficient management of this particular department. The work of the school is divided into many departments, among which are the preparatory department, normal department, mechanical industries department, mechanical sciences course, tailoring division, home economics, agricultural blacksmithing and wheelwringing, carpentry, vocational training and music. The school is co-educational and the social and moral welfare of the pupils is carefully safeguarded. There is connected with the school a branch of the Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A., and weekly meetings for Bible study are held regularly and are widely attended. The school is strictly undemotional and no doctrine or creed is taught; however, daily the students are assembled together with the faculty for devotional exercises and attendance upon these exercises is required. Just recently the school acquired a farm site of thirty acres and agricultural experts of the University of Arkansas are now at work upon a cropping plan for the development of this farm. Experts are also at work upon a fifty-year building program in connection with the farm with reference to the proper types, sizes and locations of buildings, also the proper equipment for some. The power line of the Arkansas Light & Power Co. from the Rensselaer Dam station crosses the farm and it is possible that this power may be utilized to operate the machinery necessary in the work of the farm. Pure-bred livestock, pest, etc. are being preserved and will be used rapidly as possible until the farm is fully started. More than 500 students are enrolled in the Agriculture, Mechanical and Normal School the term. The students begin in June. It follows its investigation of the school. Christian Religion CopiedFrom Negro White Author Says Horace African Messiah, Preceded Christ Many Years Jewish and Christian religions are in no sense original. They were copied from Negroes. This is the statement by Dr. Albert Churchward, white, whose new book, "The Origin and Evolution of Religion," was published recently by E. P. Dutton Company, of New York. The book sells for $15. According to Dr. Churchward the Garden of Eden was in Africa along the banks of the southern Nile. Adam and Eve, he said, wore Negroes and started the human race in the quest for the divine. These black people, he said, have their Nessiah, both ideas of which were later copied by the Jews and Christians. The African or Egyptian Gods were Orisha, the father, the mother, the teacher, the Neuro's worship of this Trinity anteceded by many centuries of Jesus. Horace, the Black Messiah, was born of the Virgin, was announced by a star, was a teacher in the temple at the age of 12 was recognized at 30 years of age, baptized, entered into conflict with Satan, who carried him onto a high mountain, went fishing with a fragrant net, made the blind to see, walked on the water, fed the multitude with seven loaves, called to himself 12 abolitions four by four; was known by his cross, was the first born from the dead, the good Shepherd, the Lamb, the Lion, the Vine, and preached to the spirits in prison. As Jesus was born in Bethlehem, "the house of bread," was Horus born in Anu, which means "the place of bread. Horus argues Dr. Churchward the story, that the angel the shepherd theabolism of Horus, rewritten—indeed, he thinks, ill-writings also. In fact, the life of the Jewish Jesus is copied so closely from that of the Black Messiah of the Eppyntias that Dr. Churchward decides whether the Jewish Messiah ever existed. Dr. Churchward also shews the development of the sacrament in religion. Cannibals, he said, sacrificed human beings. Jewish letter of the sacrament was written which was burned upon an altar. Today the sacrifices have been abolished in favor of the sacrament. 35TH ST., 240 W.—Furnished, full-sized kitchen, hot water, bedroom; service to 10 A.M. 9:00 to 15 P.M.

" Wednesday, April 29, 1925 UNDER THE DISGUISE of economy, Governor Alired E. Smith vetoed the dill introduced in the Assembly and passed by both Houses of the Legislature, call- ing for a redistricting of the district covered by the Seventh District Munici- pal Court. We say and mean “under the disguise” of economy because economy, in our opinion, played little or no part in his failure to attach his signa- ture to the Billups Bill, - THE SEVENTH DISTRICT Municipal Court is congested in point of sum- ber of cases on file, the number of jus- tices to hear the cases and the accom: modation of citizens having business in that court. To redistrict the territory ro oma cere yh oiinse ge business of the court, far from being an act of extravagance, is in reality an act of economy. But the Billups Court Bill Ss ee aren i$ of Harlem to secure representa- tion on the Municipal Court Beach which, we believe, prompted Governor Smith to veto it. Clearly, le does not want to see a Negro of any political faith elected to the Municipal Court Bench. THIS is the same Al Smith who is charged with turning thumbs down the Dempsey-Wills fight; the same Al Smith who, seemingly, looks with disfavor upon the appointment of Negro officers to the 369th Infantry ; the same “old AI” whom many Negroes voted for in prefer- eace to Theodore Roosevelt, but who now must begin to realize that little in the way of justice and fair play may be expected from him. : McKENZIE WALKS THE PLANK DR. FAYETTE A. McKENZIE, Presi- _dent of Fisk University, hes finally cot sented te walk the gangplank. His res; ignation has been tendered’ and ac- cepted. The storm and strife engen- dered by his policies of administration have subsided. The raisbow of pros- perity for Fisk, so long obscured, may now be seen. The student and the alumni association have won the great- est victory in scholastic history. McKENZIE should have walked the gangplank many months ago. In fact he should never have been even per- mitted to board the ship. No maa, white of colored, should be permitted to head or be connected with an educational in- stitution seeking to do work among Negroes unless he is willing to do all in his power to inspire those intrested to his care and keeping. Measures of re- pression, lack of appreciation, disre- spect for young Negro womasheod and the tendency to embrace the southers white maw’s polat of view of the race are things certainly not calcelated te se tis eran, al deat McK was openly charged with fostering. eer NCE of Wales recoved a warm Expressed by Our Contemporaries Negro Education and | * — Opportunity Ee oe eae ae: aie Bishop Manning and Mr. V. Everit Macy are among the latest recruits to the movement for rais- ing a $5,000,000 endowment fund for Hampton and Turkegee before the end of the present year. it is a bs undertaking, but the promise of success lies in the support forthcoming {n both the South and the ‘North. The Atlanta Constitution calls attention to the strides “Negroes are actually making In increas- ing the material wealth of the South,” and finds that Negro education along Industrial lines is “of om Uonal concern.” Education, whether of the Tuskegee-Hampton in- ‘dustrial type or of the type supplied by colleges and professional echools, is the primary tool which the Negro must employ to promote his own progress ‘and that of the community in which be lives. Yet the best of tools mey be blunted against too formida. ble obstacles. The environment in which the trained Negro strives for achievement must be such as not to make him wonder whether his education is not a mockery. The opportunities to which be is entitied in law and justice must not be restricted. It is @ satisfaction to turn to the last annua) report of the ‘National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and find evidence of the subsidence of the grosser forms of race hostility. ‘There ts really good Teason for bellexing that lynching a hideous blot on our national record. is destined to disappear. During the thirty years before 1919 the average number of lynchings per year was 107. In 1920 it dropped ( @6, and remained at approximately that level tor three years. In 1923 it was down tp 28; laat year it was 16. The association's report calls at- tention to a number of instances during the past Sear where State authorities have sought to prevent mobs from taking the law into thelr own hands, , Residential segregation for Negroes ts a newer aod more dificalt problem. In 1917 the Gaited states Supreme Court decided in the Louisville case that the segregation of Negroes by law is unconstitutional, On the basis of that decision « segregation law em ‘acted by the Louisiana Legislature last September mas been voided. The same end fs striven for in & nupber of slaces by cooperative” ection, amens white homeowners and real estate interests. Re- Mrletive covenants have been upheld ia the Federal courts, Obviously the legalities and principles tn- solved in such private action are different from dis- crimination by ordinance or law. The ultimate dect- sion usually is based on the economic argument. Profits from Negro occupation of new districts have & uy of overcoming racial prejudice. Tag adjustments of the Negro to hls waviron ment will be made easter if once we are rid of the Iynching evil, of mob violence, and of occasional dit crimination against the colored people in the proc- ‘eases of law and justice. The Negro citizen bas been winning a stronger leverage with his rising econoslc status. Our new tmmigtation policy mast inevitably enbance that status by emphasizing the importance of Negro labor in the North as well as the South. It was a point well stressed in the memorial ad- dressed by the National Association to the American Federation of Labor during last year’s Presidential campaign.

Two Negroes have been executed, one electrocuted and one hanged, for assaults upon white women, of which a white boy is now under suspicior and is pecs held for Grand Jury action at Maryville, Tenn. ‘One of the Negroes was Maurice Mays. whose case was fought by the Knoxville and other Tennessee branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Mavs was accused of having mur- dered a white woman and, despite evidence that he was ‘at home when the crime was cummitted was convicted on circumstantial evidence and electrocuted. ‘The second Negro was hanged in Ala- bama. The -white boy. now charged with the crime for which Mays died, is an employee of an aluminum concern, Comparison of the criminal’s handwriting with the writing of the young white boy in the company’s books led to his arrest. In all 32 attacks have been made in the vicinity of Maryville, eight wo- men having been killed by their assailant wheri they screamed. and a number seriously injured. “The first of the cases, that of Mrs. Bertie Lindsey, who was shot and killed, re- sulted in the conviction and execution of Maurice Mays. The white boy is of a prominent family, was once tried and acquitted of murder, and served in the World War. . _ LETTERS ————— eposited $10 for One Roo e Kiltor of The Amsterdam News: mete We tee cerrent sees ot The Ameke artigie iecrtents e24'by the United Electric Coy 0 to te | depostte’ made by its customers, ja Nov. 12, 1834, | appiied at the office c any at Broadway and 146th street, after a f oon ralormod hat the sppliaset test ait a.

J. Jones Back From Africa “The idea of deadly diseases and barbaric peoples is fast fading out of the Africa situation,” said Dr. as Jesse Jones, chairman of the Phelps-Stokes Fund Educa- tional Commission to East Africa upon his arrival from J.ondon on the Carmania. “The potentialities of East Africa alone almost sur- pass the power of human appreciation,” Dr. Jones said. “East ‘Africa’s arable acreage, exclusive of South Africa, may in time almost equal that of the United States, being an area three and a half times the total surface of the Unit- ted Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. East Africa, north of the Transvaal, contains 300000 square «miles of high plateaux, free of tropical diseases and capable of producing the crops of the sermperate zone. Its possibilities are strikingly illustrated by the fact that two years ago in the Protectorate of Uganda about 100 bales of cotton were produced and last year probably less than 150 bales, wheress the estimate for this year approximates 200,000 bales.” bales.” Dr. Jones has just completed a report of thé Commission's eight months’ surrey of condi tions in East Africa, which was written in London, He ‘was the guest of honor at ap official dinner given by the British Government in recogal- ton of the co-operation of the United States in sending the Commission to Africa to aasiat ta formulating plans to meet the cducatlons! needs of the native people. The investiga. tion was made at the instance of the Britian Goverament and was actively supported British Colonlal Office, the United States Department of Agriculture, the International ‘Education Board (Rockefeller) and British and American Mio- slonary Societies.
