VOL. XVII. NO. 3. Published Every Wednesday by The Amsterdam News Publishing Co., 2253 7th Ave NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1925 Entered as second-class matter Dec. 31, 1909, at the Post Office at New York, under the Act of March 3, 1879. SECTION ONE SKI FOUND MURDERED ANDRADES LINDSAY Noted pianist, who will appear in a recital with Eloise Uggams, mezzo soprano, Friday evening, in the auditorium of P. S. 136, located at 135th St. and Edgecombe Ave. Mississippi and the Mob APAMPHLET entitled "Mississippi and the Mob" has been distributed throughout the United States and especially in Mississippi by State officials, members of the Bar Association and various citizens. It contains strong arguments urging law officers to use armed force and to risk their own lives, if need be, to suppress lynching and mob violence, which has brought the State into public scorn frequently. In the foreword, J. N. Flowers, former Assistant Attorney General and now president of the Mississippi Bar Association, declares a sheriff should prevent lynching and mob violence or forfeit his office. The fact that a mob of unmasked men in Mississippi recently staged one of the most barbarous lynchings ever heard of, and the additional disgusting fact that no one of the lynchers has ever been arrested or put to the slightest inconvenience because of his participation in that diabolical and ghastly festival has awakened the finer feeling of the better thinking citizens of Mississippi who have caused the issuance of the pamphlet for the purpose of awakening a public conscience with this strong appeal to common sense. The pamphlet should arouse the people of the State to a point where they will give some thought to this inhuman, uncivilized and barbarous "pastime" so frequently engaged in by a gang of unthinking, unreasoning and uncivilized ignorantuses that brings the State in disrepute as well as blackens the fair name of the whole United States. This disgraceful business of lynching has become a matter of economics as well as morals. Those states that fail to suppress mobs naturally suffer from the consequences—retarded economic, educational, civil, moral and religious development. At the present time the general trend of business and industrial development is toward the South. Persons who keep their eyes singled on the general pulse of economic waves are fully aware that the industrial development of the South will grow by leaps and bounds within the next few years. But in states where lynchers and law-breakers go unpunished and general outlawry is winked at or connived with the development will be slow, if at all. These states will not share in the fruits of the general progress. Progressional development is made by serious mibuted, industrious and law-abiding citizens, and not by mobbists, lynchers and noramuses. No country, state or community can hope to keep the good citizens it has, and least of all attract desirable ones to come in and settle there if diabolical orgies of mob violence are frequently engaged in and the participants go scot free and unpunished. The pamphlet cannot help but prove of great value toward the educational development of the people of Mississippi as well as those of the entire country. It is a hopeful sign. It bespeaks a bright era in the affairs of the country and especially in Mississippi. The effects of it are bound to prove a great blessing.

TO "BREAK THE BONDS" Patronize Only Stores Employing Negroes NEGRO IN THE NORTH HAS THROWN AWAY HIS BALLOT CLARENCE DARROW ALSO SAYS THAT RACE IS TOO PIOUS, CITING SEPARATE CHRISTIAN ORGANIZATIONS Reserves Needed to Check Crowds Battling to Hear Noted Criminal Lawyer, Who Is in Charge of Defense of Dr. Ossian Sweet in Detroit That Negroes have foolishly thrown away their only badge of equality, which is the ballot, in the North, and that they are too blooming pious, were two criticisms made by Clarence Darrow, noted criminal lawyer of America, before three thousand people at a mass meeting in Salem M. E. Church, Seventh avenue and 129th street, Sunday afternoon. The meeting was held under the auspices of the N.A. A.C.P. and was a part of the campaign to raise a $50,000 defense fund to fight the case of Dr. Ossian H. Sweet of Detroit and other cases. All of the seats in the auditorium of the church were taken an hour before the program was scheduled to begin. By 2:30 o'clock every possible bit of standing room had been taken. On the outside of the church thousands of persons clamored and crowded around the building. Police reserves were called to prevent serious damage to the church property. After the program had begun, a part of the crowd was admitted to the basement of the church, where speakers went from the main auditorium to address them. Shortly before 3 o'clock Mr. Darrow was ushered to the platform. He was introduced as the "Champion of Causes" by James Weldon Johnson, executive secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. Prior to the address of the outstanding criminal lawyer of the country and chief of counsel in the Sweet case, Walter White briefly summarized the life of Dr. Sweet and the facts about the mistrial at Detroit. Robert W. Bagnall, director of branches of the N. A. A. C. P., made the appeal for contributions to the defense fund. A group of Negro spiritualists were rendered by J. Rosamond Johnson and Taylor Gordon. When Mr. Darrow was introduced the audience stood and applauded for several minutes. His voice was, as Mr. White styled it, "as soft as the coo of a dove." He talked in a slow, clear and deliberate tone. His voice was raised only once during his entire speech, when he urged Negroes to vote independently. The speaker was dressed in a dark gray suit and wore a soft collar with a white tie. He held his spectacles in his left hand. "Color is just a matter of taste. I have my furniture painted black: I don't dare paint it red. Dark colors are good to look at. I don't know why people are so particular where the color is. It doesn't matter whether it is on furniture or persons," he said. In discussing the subject of race, Mr. Darrow throw slurs at the Nordics. No solentist talks about race any more, for there is no such thing. The Nordics are the noblest race—they know it themselves. They give you money for Y. M. C. A.s; you should give it back to them—they need it worse than you. According to their conception of Christianity, Negroes will have to ride to Heaven on Jim Crow cars, he inferred. Giving his opinion why the white man was prejudiced to the colored man, he said: "The black man has been a slave and has come to us with a badge of slavery more recent than any other people in the world. Because it is so recent and because there are so many, there is prejudice. The Negro in America has not circulated much in the North. When more come North, we will THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News 16 PAGE Complete in Two Sections 3c. IN GREATER NEW YORK ELSEWHERE 5c High Lights of Darrow's Speech The sooner Negroes find out that they can't depend on Daniel and the Lord and get busy for themselves the better off they will be. The army is the only place where they will put the Negro in front. We believe in obeying the laws that we believe in. Work in the South is bossed by whites and done by Negroes. The future of the Negro is not all hopeful and not hopeless. To determine whether you are black or white depends upon how far you go back. The future does not depend solely on money and education, but they are mighty big factors. I am hoping for the time when I can talk before a colored audience about something besides color. It would be easier to get rid of all the intelligent people, in the country than morons, for there are more of the latter. Black people are the only people in America who didn't come here of their own accord. If the Lord was going to do something for you, he would have done it long ago. I would have more confidence in Him if there wasn't a white and colored Y. M. G. A. hate you as much as those in the South." To prove his argument that there is no such thing as race, the speaker wont back to the early evolution of man. During this discourse Mr. Darrow touched upon some of his experiences at Dayton, Tenn. He then depicted the struggle of the Negro in the heart of Africa. By developing the history of the people, he described the horrific hoarding and chaining of slaves in 10 Clarence Darrow HOWARD TRUST HEARS EIGHT CHARGES AGAIN Doctors Dumas and Wheath E.

Mooreland Battle Desperately to Prevent Alumni From Being Heard WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 14—J. Stanley Durkee, president of Howard University, was caught openly in three false statements before a special meeting of the Trustee Board here Thursday. The meeting was called following a request made by the Howard Alumni Association to hear eight charges filed against him. Either colorless in their expression or defending the administration, colored members of the board played a conspicuous part during the nine hours' hearing. Like the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," Dr. Michael O. Dumus, a prominent Washington physician; Dr. Marcus Wheatland of Newport, R. I.; J. C. Napier, former United States Registrar of the Treasury; Jesse E. Moorland, former senior secretary of the colored division of the Y. M. C. A., battled desperately to prevent the charges from being filed against Dr. Durkee. Dean Kelly Miller, who testified in behalf of the Alumni Association, infirmed several times that Durkee was a blackguard. With but one exception, all of the university's deans denounced the administration. Dr. Ernest Just testified that the spiritual atmosphere of the university had degenerated during Dr. Durkee's reign. Resented Insult of Delicatessen Dealer When Sadie Powell, of 161 Edgecombe avenue, complained about the quantity of cheese she had received for one-half of a pound, the owner of a delicatessen at 2254 Seventh avenue shouted: "Get out, nigger," she testified when she was brought before Magistrate Gordon in the Washington Heights Court, Monday, on a charge of assault made by the proprietor's wife, Mrs. Ester Solomon, white. Mrs. Solomon said that Miss Powell disputed with her about the weight of the cheese and following an argument struck her on Attorney Thomas B. Dyett, New York, conducted the hearing in behalf of the alumni. He was assisted by Attorneys James B. Lightfoot of Atlantic City, A. S. Plinkett and George A. Parker of Washington. Upon the cross-examination made by Mr. Dyett, the president affirmed three contradictory statements. When he was asked which (Continued on Page 2.) TEE BOARD IT SPECIFIC AGAINST DURKEE and, J. C.

Mrs. Solomon said that Miss Powell disputed with her about the weight of the cheese and following an argument struck her on the nose. The defendant denied the charge and said that she merely resented an insult. Following Miss Powell's testimony, the court dismissed the charge. Upon the release of Miss Powell she appeared as a witness against Mrs. Solomon who was charged by the police with violating the Sabbath Law. The complaint was dismissed.

A, New York City CITY CLERK GOES FREE ONCHARGEOF SEDUCTION Young Woman Accuser Admits Having Illicit Relations With William Dover Prior to Time Mentioned in Her Present Complaint Completely baffled by the questions put to her by Richard L. Cunningham, attorney for William H. Dover, Jr., whom she charged with seduction, Edna King, age 25, of 271 W. 140th street, admitted that she had had intimate relations with Dover prior to the time of the alleged seduction. Dover is a clerk in the City Corporation Counsel's office. After Attorneys Myles Palge and H. L. Patterson, counsellors for Miss King, had relieved her of the strain she had undergone during the severe cross-examination by Counsellor Cunningham, she again affirmed two conflicting statements. When the defense counsel shouted at her which one was true, the chose the one upon which the crux of her case rested. In disgust, Magistrate James Barrett, in the Washington Heights Court, dismissed the defendant Thursday afternoon. Before the hearing was called for, the courtroom was cleared of all spectators and witnesses for the principals. Like an ambitious young lawyer in fiction, Counsellor Palge recited the facts in the case that he was to establish. He then put his witness on the stand. Attorney Palge attempted to lead his reluctant witness, but Attorney Cunningham objected. Miss King appeared extremely nervous on the witness stand. At times she became completely confused by the questions put to her and would look at her lawyers in a pleading manner for an answer. The hearing came to a sudden end three o'clock, when Mr. Cunningham, with three questions in succession, toro down all that had been established in her behalf. According to Miss King, she and Dover had kept company for two years and that they were engaged to be married. She said that she still loved him and that he loved her, but his parents had forbidden him to marry her. She said that Dover wrote to her father and secured his consent to the marriage. She then had intimate relations with him on his promise to marry her, she testified. Informed of her present delicate condition, he still held out against her, she said.

(Advt.) SENEGALESE FIGHTER, ONCE WORLD'S CHAMPION, DIES OF BULLET WOUNDS; BODY IN POOL OF BLOOD Took Light-Heavyweight Championship From Georges Carpentier and Lost It to Mike McTigue—In Trouble Many Times Battling Siki, the Senegalese prizefighter, who flashed like a comet into prominence in 1922 when he gained the light-heavyweight championship of the world by knocking out Georges Carpentier in Paris was found dead early Tuesday morning, lying in a pool of blood in West Forty-first street, near Ninth avenue. Police believe some one with a grudge murdered him. Near his body the police found an ugly, shot-barreled .38-caliber revolver, from which bullets he been fired from behind into Siki's right kidney right lung. At the West Thirtieth street station Sik wife shrieked hysterically when told her husband w. dead and declared: "I know who shot him. I know who did it." She told the police a man had threatened revenge who her husband raised a rumpus in a lunchroom after his overcoat had been stolen. Siki, whose real name was Louis Phall, lived at 261 Wei. Forty-first street, with his wife and a pet monkey. He was a favorite in his neighborhood, where people thought he was fine fellow when he was not searing them to death by pretending to take wild swings at them, then laughing when his blow missed their mark. Depraved Rite Pastor Sentenced Must Serve From Ten to Twenty Years in Penitentiary — Came From Africa PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 14.—Jas. J. Johnson, who professed to be a clergyman, has been sentenced to serve 10 to 20 years in prison after being convicted of charges of deprivacy. Johnson said, he received the degree of doctor of divinity displayed on his visiting cards from a correspondence school in this country while he was working in the diamond fields near Johannesburg, South Africa. Detectives testified that one of the tenets of Johnson's religious rites was obedience to him in all things. It was also testified that he strung up women and children by the thumbs in the cellar of his house where he conducted the "church" when he felt they had not been obedient to his will, and practiced flagellation and other cruelties. In sentencing Johnson Judgo Frank Smith said that he was the "type that should be sent to prison and the key thrown away." that he played on the ignorance of some of the people of his race and destroyed whatever confidence they have in the real things of life." Johnson broke out into loud hall-eujahs after being sentenced. Patrolman John J. Mehan of the West 30th street station knew Silk and said hello to him shortly after midnight. At 4.10 he found a figure sprawled on the sidewall and turned it over to recognize Silk. When Dr. Bassapoa arrived from New York Hospital he said the fighter was dead, victim of a hemorrhage brought on by violence. Had Wild Career. Skii's career in the ring was colorful if not particularly successful for very long. He did not like the padded ring much although he enjoyed the good living that his profits brought him. Some of his escapades brought him considerable notoriety, such an occasion when he was beaten up and thrown out of a Paris café where he was becoming obstreperous. Over here he enjoyed night life more than fighting. Not many months ago he was beaten up and spent some time in the hospital lying in bed irked him and he ran away from the institution in his pajamas. Born in Senegal in 1897, he was sent to France with the native troops. He learned to box and started the sporting world when he took the championship away from Carpentier, idol of the French. Lost to McTigue. Publicity rained on him. His managers planned an extensive campaign for him, but although he wield a fair fighter he did not seem to do his best, and he did not keep his championship belt long. On St. Patrick's Day, 1928, Mike McTigue, an Irishman, fought him in Dublin and beat him in a twenty-round fight. From then on his ring success was indifferent. He fought set fights, sometimes winning and sometimes losing, but never, seemingly, doing all that he could get to the top of the heap and stay there. He was happier spending his money than making it. It cently he told a sport writer had bought a night club, and produced a white man of de appearance as his "secreta" He had been living in try since 1824.

C., Dec. 14.—A special call meeting of the Board of Trustees of Howard University was held in the Board Room, Carnegie Library Building, University Campus, Thursday, Dec. 10, 1925. The meeting was called for the especial purpose of considering certain petitions, resolutions, and communications from the General Alumni Association of Howard University and from certain teachers dismissed by action of the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees June 15, 1925. Justice F. W. Booth, dean of the School of Law, Howard University, was requested by the Board of Trustees to sit with the Board to handle it along older and established channels of investigation. James A. Cobb, Esq., vice-dean of the School of Law, appeared during the proceedings by consent of the Board of Trustees as Dr. Darrell annual counsel. Representing the General Alumni Association were: Dr. George Frazier Miller, Brooklyn. N. Y. president of the General Alumni Association; Mr. Thomas D. Dyett, New York City; Mr. James A. Lightfoot, Atlantic City, N. L.; and Mr. George A. Parker, Mr. Archibald S. Pinkett, Miss Nellie M. Quander, Rev. W. D. Jarvis, and Mr. Thomas Walker, all of Washington, D. C. The trustees were in session from 9 o'clock in the morning until 7:30 o'clock, taking only a short process for lunch. The hearing was full and open, the General Manual Association presenting the charges and complaints and calling witnesses in support of such charges and complaints. At the end of the day, session the Board of Trustees adopted the following resolution: "The Trustees of Howard University have this day. December 10, 1925, given a hearing to contain representatives of the General Munnl Association of Howard University upon a series of enquiries brought against President I. Stanley Durkee under date of October 24, 1925. We have listened to all the testimony adduced and to the arguments of the politicians. After due deliberation and examination of each of the charges, the Trustees unanimously agree to the following: Voted: That none of the charges against President I. Stanley Durkee has been sustained by adequate or convincing evidence. Most of the charges accuse him of action which was in fact taken or authorized by votes of the Board of Trustees or by committees appointed by them and acting under the charter of the university and the bylaws of the Trustees. "No proof has been brought forward which, in the minds of the Trustees, proves President Durkee to have been guilty of arbitrary or irregular action in his function as president of the university. All direct, personal charges against him are unsupported by evidence. No abuse of his powers as president of the university was proven. His connection with the Curry School of Expression in Boston was approved at the time by the trustees. He has since relinquished that connection. "We desire to bear testimony to our confidence in President Durkee's character and abilities. He has rendered notable services to Howard University, raising it from college of moderate size and influence to the most important institution for the education of youth of the colored race in the United States. In our relations we have found him frank and open. Some differences of opinion will always arise between heads of institutions learning and their trustees and allies. Trustees and President have always been able to harmony for the good of tution.

"It is our purpose, together with the president, to improve the university in its organization, its teaching force, and the number and character of the students, so far as its resources allow, with hearty co-operation between Trustees, president, faculty and alumni." Additional Resolutions Adopted. With reference to the four teachers whose services were discontinued last June, the Board of Trustees took the following action: I. "Voted, that the action of the executive committee and the budget committee of the Board of Trustees in the matter of the discontinuance of certain teachers on June 15, 1923, he and hereby is ratified as carrying out the directions of the Board of Trustees in the matter of eliminations, contractions, etc., in conformity with the reorganization program of the university, as adopted June 15, 1923." 2. "Voted, also, that, inasmuch as the executive committee and the budget committee had no instructions extending beyond the action that they took with reference to the separation of certain professors on account of the consolidations and reductions incident to the reorganization program of the university, the Trustees hereby grant leave of absence to the following four persons, beginning July 1, 1825, for one year—full salaries to be paid at the same time and on the same terms as the regular academic salaries last received by them; Alaine L. Looke, professor of philosophy; Alonzo H. Brown, professor of mathematics; Metz T. L. Loochard, assistant professor of French, and Orlando C. Thornton, instructor in finance and business organization. At the end of the year, June 30, 1825, all connections of these persons with the university shall cease." The resolutions referred to have represent the decisions of the Board of Trustees with reference to complaints of one kind or another which have been lodged against the university administration over a period of several months. The Board of Trustees decided to take cognizance of these charges and complaints, a special meeting being called for the purpose of dealing with them. 8 Charges Heard Against Durkee (Continued from Page 1.) was true, the "Four Horsemen" made a violent protest against the question on the ground that Mr. Brett was attempting to ridicule the president. Following the advice of his legal adviser, Dr. Durkee refused to answer. A copy of Carter Woodson's resignation from the university, in which he declared that the president was incompetent, was read in spite of the absolute immunity which was granted each member of the faculty who would testify at the bearing, fifty per cent. of the younger professors refused to make a statement about the administration, for fear that they would be persecuted by Dr. Durkee for their attitude towards him. All of the older white professors unheld the administration, while the colored professors denounced it. An abundance of evidence was produced by the alumni to substantiate its charges. Most of the evidence was accepted after a heated verbal battle between one of the four Durkee defenders and Counsellor Dyett. The hearing was thrown into an uproar of violent laughter during Dean Miller's testimony. His gestures, his movements about the floor, his satire at the expense of the president, furnished the entertainment while he was on the floor. He related the incident when he was called a "dirty contemptible puppy" by President Durkee. Dean Miller was recalled later in the day to testify about the president's connection with the Curry School of Expression. Colored members of the board of trustees attempted to bring the investigation to a halt when the president was cross-examined on the Curry School. Standing direct mise measure following a heated discussion over the election of a colored girl to represent the South. The original plan for the federation provided for four officers and an executive committee of seven representing the geographical divisions of the United States. When executive committee members were voted upon Miss Mabel Holloway of Howard University was chosen as the Southern representative. Then R. E. Kiser, white, of Louisiana State University, who had been a candidate from the Southern division, withdrew from the conference. This precipitated a stormy debate which culminated in a decision to name two representatityas instead of one from each of the sections. It was decided that the seven first elected should choose the other seven. 12 STITCHES TAKEN IN MAN'S NECK While standing in front of the premises at 133 West 140th street Sunday afternoon Alfred Juliet, who did not give his address, was slashed with a knife by a man he later identified as Jay B.

TWO MEN ARE HELD FOR ALLEGED THREAT Two men were held in $2,500 bail each for a further hearing by Magistrate Oberwager in the Washington Heights Court, Sunday morning, on a charge of felonious assault. The accused men are Henry Dorsey, 29, a chauffeur, 129 West 134th street, and Neal Law, 30 a laborer, 117 West 134th street. The complaint was made by Louis George, a furniture polisher, 117 West 134th street. George said that the men came to his apartment Sunday evening and pointed revolvers at him and threatened to blow his brains out. For having a dangerous knife in his possession Earl Ford, 25, was held in $500 bail by Magistrate Gordon in the Washington Heights Court Monday for a further hearing. Gordon was arrested Sunday in St. Nicholas Park, near 135th street, when the arresting officer said he displayed the knife openly.

Harlem's Own L Catholics Initiate Jim-Crow Policy Services for Negroes Held in Basement-That for Whites Upstairs PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 14.—According to Clarence F. Clarke, a Catholic, the Catholic Church is forsaking its established policy of fairness to all races and under Cardinal Dougherty has established a jim-crow church in West Philadelphia within the shadow of another Catholic church. This is supposed to be contrary to the teachings of the great Catholic Church. All the people who are members of the Catholic Church who reside in a particular parish are supposed to attend the church in that parish, according to Mr. Clarke. Several of the members are protesting against the treatment accorded them. A committee waited on Cardinal Dougherty and, according to the statement of the chairman, the Cardinal is in harmony with the segregation program. It is further reported that some of the white priests do not want colored people in their churches and suggested that colored people should be gled to attend the Jim crow church. Father Deaver, who is the priest in charge of the colored work and who has shown great interest in the race problem since his appearance here, says that it is a matter of expediency; that the majority of the colored parishioners desire a separate church and that much good will be done that could not be accomplished otherwise. The thing that is reported to give the colored members the greatest amount of concern is the fact that two services are, being conducted at the same time in the identical church—service for colored people in the basement and one on the main floor for whites. According to some of the members, the case will be reported to the Pope. As it is against the great established principles of the Catholic Church—Philadelphia Tribune. Furniture!

Lulu Leon, white, of 33 West 117th street, charged that she was in a theatre at 145th street, near Eighth avenue, Sunday night. De Fontes, she said in Washington Heights Court Monday, followed her from Amsterdam avenue and 145th street to the theatre. For an hour in the theatre the man, she said, placed his hands on different parts of her body and asked her to go out with him. A police officer on post at 145th street and Eighth avenue was summoned by the girl, and De Fontes was placed under arrest. He pleaded not guilty and was held in $2,500 bail for a further hearing. RUN DOWN BY AUTO While crossing the street at 134th street and Seventh avenue Sunday afternoon, Charles Brown, 46, address unknown, was run down and slightly injured by an automobile driven by J.

According to the physician, Brown was under the influence of liquor at the time of the accident.

Families where, because of the illness of the bread winner, there will be no Christmas; or aged people who have only a very small income. Such cases as the following are illustrative of the kind that come to our attention daily. A. J. a young man who is the father of a family, met with an accident while at work. He injured his finger and was brought to the hospital where he remained for nearly two months. During this time, his wife did what she could to earn a little money and keep the wolf from the door. After his return home, just as the family was commending to feel encouraged because the father would soon be back at work, he met with another accident which resulted in a broken leg. That meant another six weeks in the hospital. Now the doctor advises a brace which will cost $20. Where is the money to come from? The wife can only make enough to buy food. The rent is overdue besides. If we can get the brace for him, this man will be enabled to go back to work and take care of his family himself. R. S., a single woman, 30 years, had always supported herself by doing first class dressmaking. She has recently become the victim of asthma and attacks have become so frequent and so severe that she has had to give up her work and has used up her salaries. At present she has only what she is receiving from the Social Service Department. The doctors offer hope that she will be improved enough to carry on her work in a few months if she can have rest and proper food for a time. The Social Service worker found that she was living in the generosity of a friend. She could not understand these conditions, it was necessary that she be moved once into more comfortable quarters. A room was found for her and we are helping her financial until she can become self-supporting again. M. A child, six years old, is on weight com. She is many pounds underweight and is underweight due to proper nourishment. Her father has deserved the family and the mother works to support P and the sisters. There is also a grandmother who must be supported. She takes care of the children while their mother works. We have been splitting extra nourishment for P and have sent her to the country.

In one of the royal apartments a short time later Menjon's Minister of Finance (Mario Majoroni) and other statesmen are reminding the sing that the country requires a large loan. The only way it can be obtained is either through a marriage with the House of Slavonia or a trip to America. "We shall go to America," the sing announces, "via Paris." The story goes on to show in a humorous, entertaining way just what happens when the philiphine king meets the most famousancer in the French capital andthen, in America, falls in love withyoung American girl, only tobecome to return to his owncountry without her. "The King on Main Street" is the elimination of a dream ofyears of both Monta Bell and the star,is a perfect role for Mention. He is the temperament, the air ofexhibition, the finished type ofwriting necessary for it. He had hiscare set upon taking this one ofhis greatest efforts. And, according to all advance reports,he hasmore than succeeded.

As a result of the dispute, the niece died. The youth left, ignorant of the fact, although he told his brother of the quarrel. Arrested by the murder, the brother was acquitted, but the towpath still remained and possession began to place itself on the character of the foster sister because she and the mother lived in the same house unmarried. The brother loves the girl, but he knows that the lad in France also loved her. Their life before he soldier left, had seen many calous moments. Finally a committee comes to no house and announces its purpose of placing the girl in a home for the wayward. The girl died just before the brother came home. He ordered the malicious members of the committee to leave. Then he starts to find his foster sister, who fled away toward the lake. At last comes word that the soldier brother, aged one of the great heroes of the way, was sent to the city with the memorial of his family could be but see Johnne Walker and Gladys Juliette in "The Standers," a real Universal special coming to the Franklin Theatre tomorrow.

Tinney (From Zit's.) When it's its pay day down at Baldwin, which time will come when Earl Carroll, Frank Tinney's new boss, has paid him several salaries at the rate of $1,250 per sal, the creditors of the firming Tinney will gather outside his door, and promise: among them will be a lady who cloaks in the name of Carrie Snood, duky of feature, but with a heart of gold. Carrie, it was learned this week, has agreed that her lawyers meet Tinney's solicitors and arrange a settlement between them. Originally, Carrie brought suit in the Supreme Court against the comedian, making $2,000 gold after alleging that Frank used her rough Those familiar with the comings and goings of Tinney during the time he was much emanated of Imogenee Wilson recall Carrie Sneed as Imogenee's personal maid. According to Carrie, one day during the series of boxing matches between her mistress and Frank, then Imogenee's lover, she fell afoul of some of Tinney's wallops and suffered thereby what are described on police records as abrasions, contusions and lacerations. Carrie asserted, in demanding the 2,000 claims that she was an innocent bastard at the scrape. But she added that when things went wrong for her mistress she stopped in and tried to make peace. Timney, she claims, could no resemblance between her and a snow-white so she took care of his life on her. He used Carrie carried about scarf for a long time attesting to the launting force of Timney's punches. On the eve of bringing the case to trial in the Supreme Court Timney left, for Europe and remained away more than seventy. Her attorneys, Brand and Burnstein, waited until Timney returned, and then brought the meter up again. They report that the comedian's lawyers had agreed to settle the matter out of court so Carrie would be healed, after all, by a generous application of humor silver. White Actress Claims She Has Only College Maid Helen Parker a Graduate of Ohio State University and Father a Musician Here The only actress in New York who has a college graduate with a B. A degree for a maid is Ruth Hammond, now playing the role of the college widow in J. C. and Elkhorn's comedy, "The Poor Nut." In its ninth month at the fifth at Theatre. Miss Hammond's colored maid, Helen Parker, is a graduate of Ohio State University, having received her B. A. degree from the institution in 1923, when she was 29 years of age. Miss Parker holds a teacher's license in both Ohio and New York and has taught in the public schools of Ohio. The fact that Miss Parker is a graduate of Ohio State University was discovered by Elliott Nugent, joint author of and featured player in "The Poor Nut," the night after Miss Hammond joined the company. He boarded her maid humming the tune of the Ohio State song, which is one of the university's most popular airs. Questioning brought out the above facts and also that she was born in Columbus, to Mr. Nugent, it should be explained, is also a graduate of Ohio State University. Miss Parker's father is a musician, being both a vocalist and an instrumentist, and broadcasts every Monday night from a New York station.

Price Lyceum About Things Theatrical Song Recital of Well-Known Singer at Manhattan Casino December 27th Mine. Lula Robinson-Jones as president of the J. C. Price Lycum has arranged a program for Sunday afternoon at Mother A. M. E. Zion Church, of which the Rev. J. W. Brown is pastor, that can be considered one of the best things of its kind to be offered the public in some time. Prof. Leon Adger will be at the new organ, while Dr. Hubert H. Harrison will deliver one of his brilliant lectures. Garland Anderson, the California bellboy who wrote "Appearances" which is expected to return to Broadway in the near future, will tell why he wrote the play. The Coleman boys hacked and presented the "Creeol Follies," which even they will modestly tell you was the best thing done in colored shows ever since somebody said let's have colored shows, but it went on the rocks. With good Mr. Shapiro the idea again came forth for another show, which he had done some some, some, and the lamented "Creeol Follies" out. It was trying to find excuses for old man Shapiro when colored Harlem, taking fright at the old gondola, refused to hike to the Lafayette in large numbers. Wotta world, wotta world! Among the singers to appear will be Mrs. Helen Bates Williams, soprano; D. L. Haynes, bass soloist, and George Royal, bartonella; Miss C. Cappr will be at the piano; Miss Ethel Bennett is the secretary of the Iyreum. Mime. Jones appeared in recital at Manhattan Casino on the night of December 7. assisted by Prof. Adger with the Monarch Orchestra in attendance, led by Leont. Fred Simpson. A splendid musical treat was offered on the above occasion and Mime. Jones is very grateful for the support given her. The program was as follows: 1. Hilt list did he Mr. theermant Bach. Do The Trout Schubert. Do Cuckoo Song. Frank 2. March New Colonial. Hill Music. Do The Night Words. Do The Trees. Bach. Do Asa from Homeland. Do Italian. Vocal. Now, if you are willing to do be fair, there's something in that. Not that we did not see things from this angle before, but with us there has never been any half measures, and there were certain things in our minds which only the consistent thought of the better things will keep on, and even the most exacting will admit that there are times when the mind WILL, wander to what, even inadvisedly, one might consider us unwelcome. If Mr. Summers could provide a public Department of finance matters of shows, and also promise him that this is one paper which will run his stuff without hope of any advertising, as our policy was called by the material alone. There was something spiritual in those few words which the general manager of the Lafayette said to us, and to those words we succumb cheerfully. 12. Salmon pie. 13. Squash pie. 14. Pumpkin pie. 15.

When the big transatlantic White Star liner "Olympic" arrived at Southampton, England, one day last September, there walked down the strollup two distinguished American artists, heralded in England as "American Ambushadors of Sympation," but none other than our good old friends Noelle Sissle and Eubie Blake, famous in America as the writers and stars of "Shuffle Along" and "The Chocolate Dundies," and curiously more important to the English public as the creators of that great international song hit "I'm Just Wild About Harry." The Best XMAS GIFTS 25% Noble Stasle and Eubie Blake, accompanied by their wives, arrived in London for a stay of eight weeks. They are still in England, and likely to be for some time, unless they accept the tour offered to appear in France and Germany with the winter season on the Riviera, taking in Cannes, Nice and Monte Carlo. Stasle and Blake's demanded retention in England is somewhat explained by two quotations, one from the London "Daily Telegraph", which states: "Stasle and Blake have the kind of quality that grows upon you and makes their work appear at a second visit to be even better than you remembered it." The other quotation, from the "Stake." England's leading theatrical weekly, has this to say: "the more you know of Stasle and Blake, the more published themselves very quickly as staunch favorites." The songs of these colored performers have a flavor of their own, and the pianist of the pair is one of the best we have heard for some time." REDUCTION ON ALL MADE TO ORDER OVERCOATS Noble and Euble's initial engagement in England was at London's exclusive and very smart Kit Kat Club and the Pieceaday, both places the rendezvous of artistry and the ultra social contingent. It wasn't long before the music halls, or vaudeville theatres, as Americans would call them, were bidding for Sissie and Blake's appearance, climaxed in their opening at the Alhambra. Will the boys ever forget it? The fond memories of the choirs and wild applause demonstrations of the Art can motion pictures, an experience Sissie and Blake are a measured chapter to their already meteoric theatre careers. The supposedly conservative English audiences became a howling bedlam in a vocal bombardment that elicited all arguments us to Sissie and Blake's success. Success, and then some, and that is why Noble and Euble are still in England. This is a chance of a Lifetime to save money and be dressed stylish Suits to Order In any style you want, at $22.50 --- $25 $30 --- $35 Sissie and Blake's auspicious debut at the Alhambra caused the management to hold them over at this theatre and contract for three weeks at the Collsoum, rated London's leading variety theatre. Two of these weeks include the Christmas and New Year holidays. The Victoria Palace, Chiswick Empire, Holborn Empire and Shepherd's Bush were all added to the list, and so the boys merrily go on. At present Noble and Euble are the featured attraction at Murray's and the Carnival Club, in addition to headlining in the music halls at the same time. Aside from the stage triumphs of Sissie and Blake in England, new hareels are being woven with the muson' compositions of this versatile pair. He is singing and whiffs Ig Sissie and Blake's new fox ballad "Why." This number, hot at Keith-Prowse, a large British music publishing house, has been recorded on the phonograph and is being sung and played on the air, to the evident delight of British radio fans. Radio applause cards and lotteries are quite the same in England as in America in expressing satisfaction with a broadcasting program, and to quote one is to quote the sentiment of all: "Our family loved 'Why.' Won't you please put it on again soon?" Every garment's made to your individual measure Quality, Style and Fit Guaranteed London's biggest and most lavish revue, "Still Dancing," the Zieglo-Follies of England, is featuring with scenic splendor "Lady of the Moon," a Sissie and Blake composition. It is recorded and agreed that this melody is the most beautiful in the musical score of this big show, identically. Charles B. Cochran, the producer of "Still Dancing," is the same who at one time wanted to put on in London. Sissie Alley put for reasons at home, but it appeared. It is reported, London's West End can be secured, with proper terms, London may yet see "Shuffle Along," with Sissie and Blake as the stars. The West End of London is the gay white way and theatrical district. MAJESTIC Tailoring Co. 2391 7th Ave. The energetic Keith Prowse Company also purchased "Lady of the Moon," keeping close to Messrs. Sislea and Blake for all their latest song creations. The last one is a song novelty called "Three Wise Monkeys." Another ballad, and the English love sentimental songs, is in the music hall of Sislea and Blake. It is called "You." This and "Picadilly Blues," a new one, too, will shortly be heard for the first time. No rest for the weary. Sislea and Blake have been commissioned to write the score for a new musical play by Draycott Dell, the English author. This play is scheduled for next fall production. The spring also will witness the premiere in London of "Sislea," a white musical comedy, in which Sislea and Blake wrote half of the music, eight numbers. Will they know Sislea and Blake in England?

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 16, 1925 Professor Anderson Will Fittingly Observe Holidays at Class Headquarters "Moonphin Along," as presented at the Lafayette Theatre last week, was the best argument why shows should not be rushed to the fore before being completed. Up to Saturday the production had not rounded out into what we expected, and all because Jesse Shipp found himself surrounded by circumstances over which he had no control. The idea lies prevailed at the Lafayette Theatre ever since the days of the Coleman Bros. that an up-to-the-minute musical comedy production can be produced in one or two weeks, while the truth of the matter is it takes months before a show of this kind is ready for its initial appearance, after which the necessary changes are made to round it out into something presentable. Christmas Night and New Year's Eve Night to Be Celebrated by Patrons, Pupils and General Public No better example of this desire for putting on overnight things only to have them fall by the wayside was ever given than in the days of our good friend Mr. Shapiro. Even such a talented artist as J. Rosamond Johnson tried to make the addloplain of Frank Montgomery falling to impress some wise mind prompting the poor man who knew as much about the entire thing as we do about manufacturing helium gas. Professor Charles H. Anderson, ably assisted by an efficient staff which has surrounded him ever since he started his Saturday Night Special Assembly at the Flks' Auditorium, will fittingly observe the coming holidays, and the spirit of the merry yuletide season which will prevail will be in keeping with the atmosphere of You would imagine from the lukowarm manner in which we have been giving the latency the go-by that Signor Frankie Schiffman would be very much displeased. Don't you believe it. Stress of circumstances forced us to get Frankie all wrong, and it was only an accident that disclosed how certain minds can play havoc between two human beings. Mr. Schiffman is blessed with the art of refusing to allow any man to have the wrong conception of him when the opportunity presents itself, and that's just how it happened. We ran into him one night last week and his greeting was never warned. Some will say that the Brocher representative has been trained to grab what favor he can at the hand of the press, but some how or the other he will use his method in dealing with whom he might have held the greatest respect in the past. He'll fight, all right, hence it will be readily soon that he must be reckoned with. "We have nothing against you for any attitude you might face where this theatre is concerned," he said, "but how about all these performances and a number of shows behind which we have thrown our support both moral and financial." Sinclair and Blake's mailing address is care of American Express Lany London England reinforcement which has been in evidence at his classes. Christmas night has been set aside for the initial gala dansent of two which will be given, the other to take place on New Year's eve, a time when the majority of the people will be preparing to usher in another New Year with all the joy for the blessings received in the closing twelve months. For these occasions Professor Anderson has made special arrangements, which will include John C. Smith and his talented musicians in special programs which will include a number of waltzes into which John will throw his soul as he did on one occasion when we had to be present at the assembly. Continuing to maintain his classes in a manner that should please the most exacting in spite of the demands of this jazz age, we feel that Mr. Anderson is deserving of the attention of those he seeks to attract to these affairs, at which there will be no question of the enjoyment in store for those taking advantage of the opportunity to attend. Special parties and individual will be given the same attention not only by the professor, but his assistants, at the head of whom will be the ever courteous and genial Warren Green and George Donaldson. Dancing will be in order from nine o'clock until three a.m. Moonlight Ship to Again Sail From New Star New Year's Night Is Her Regular Sailing Schedule and Allie Ross Will Lead the Music Captain Henry Wilson believes that he went off his regular schedule the last time he took the Moonlight Ship out, and gangs of his friends are of the same mind, but New Year's night is on the regular sailing schedule of the Moonlight Ship and nothing will stop her. The Captain has made extensive preparations for the sailing of the boat on the first sight of the year, and few there are who would want the New Year to be ushered in and not be found sharing the joys of an occasion which will be fraught with all the good things which only the Moonlight Ship can carry. This year the captain will also get out a special program and this will give his many friends a chance to let the world see what they have to offer through this part of the entertainment on the ship. A fresh crew on the boat to man her will most likely be installed to add to the list already getting the bont in order for the big sail. Best Sport Pages In Greater NewYork Manhattan Casino 155th Street and Eighth Ave. Boxes for Big Athletic Event New Year's Night on Sale at Renaissance In Spite of Strenuous Season, Colored Champions Will Open the Year Against Italian Catholic Club-Will Meet World's Champions This Sunday Night at Renaissance Casino-Team Again Victorious Where to start and when to finish has become a hard task in writing about the crack Renalissance Five, which has been creating such a future ever since the team started its strenuous season on the basketball court in early September. The things accomplished by these youngsters under the guidance of "Bob" Douglas and the possibilities of the future are of such one must be state and make certain that nothing is missing in recording the doings of an aggregation which has set such a fast pace it is even taxing to the usually alert "recorder of deeds" on the newspaper. In keeping with the events of the past few months, one is forced to look back before telling of future plans. Not many weeks ago these colored hats met and more than held their own with the world's champions, the Celtics, at the Orange Armory, and as if to cap the climax Manager "Bob" Douglas the other day closed negotiations which will bring to firearm the coming Sunday night this famous team of white players in a return game against the local team. This in itself should be enough to make the wetkin ring with the cheers of an appreciative bunch of followers right here in Harlem, but maintaining the arsenuous pace to which they have kept, these same colored players will return on this Wednesday night to Arcadia Hall in Brooklyn to meet the Nonpareils in a return game for which both white and colored fans in Brooklyn have been howling ever since the first contest. And to make sure that the coming year will find them going at it as hard, the Renaissance will appear on New Year's night at Manhattan Casino to meet the Italian Catholic Club, the latter known to many as the Madison Square Whirlwinds and the same team that came from behind and won from the Douglas men Thanksgiving night. The demand to see these leading teams of the country in action has taken such form in the days. Manager Douglas has been forced to place his box reservations on sale at the Reposance Theatre, which will make it possible for prospective purchasers to secure these seats any time of the day or night, or at least up until the theatre closes its doors each night. Sunday night's game holds great possibilities for the local team. They are meeting the world's greatest aggregation on a court with which they are familiar and one on which they have yet to lose a game this season. With almost a score of victories at the Reedskance Casino, the colored team should be primed for the big contest on Sunday night and judging from the manner in which they virtually "manhunted" the Celtics at the Orange Armory, there is every reason for the large number of fists behind the local team to feel that the time is here for them to make their greatest aid for world honors. In the benefit game for the New York American Nissan (and against the Starling Greys at the Renaults Casino Costa last Sunday night) the local players had no trouble winning by a score of 41-27. The first half ended 25-15 in favor of the Renaults and they had no trouble holding the lead when they took the court for the final half.

Another fine house gathered to see the game. Baltimore Athenians Win Close One From Howard University With "Chippy" Taylor in the hero role the Athenians snatched a game from Howard University by 27 to 24. Taylor, who had been forced to the sidelines for several weeks with an ankle injury, was called to the game with but a minute to play and Howard leading, 24-23, and responded with two beautiful field goals that brought victory. Howard trotted out a well-conditioned and an aggressive team. Simpson, Spears and Berry proved bulwarks of strength for the D. C. team. Veney and Baskerville were great aides to Taylor in making victory sure for the Athenians. The Philadelphia Flashes will oppose the Athenians on Christmas night. The poses of the Y. M.

The remarkable shooting of Davis, Crainford, and Shields led to the record score. "Three Eddies" Back Home Tiny Ray, looking like the same. Tiny of old, dropped in on Monday night, thereby staging his own little surprise for us as we did not expect him back from Europe for quite some time. Tiny, with the big act known as "The Three Elders" went to Europe with the 'Chocolate Kiddies' and reports everything lovely on the other side. The boys will return to Europe in March to join the kiddies who are making an extended trip that will take them in the principal cities of the old world. Attraction The Sportive Spotlight Brooklyn strutted her stuff up to the last three minutes of play between the team of the Superior A. C. and the Philadelphia Panthers last Wednesday night. But when Philadelphia turned on her heavy batteries Boss Lane and his crowd trembled, but consoled themselves with trying to show confidence until the winning shot sailed through the air into the basket. At the conclusion of the game the dancing started, and everything appeared to be lovely, until the air was rent by a pistol shot. The entire gathering became quiet for about twenty seconds, then they woke up and started to ANYWHERE. Just like crowds will do. Arnold (Vincent Astor) Landin was standing by our side telling how Brooklyn would have won and they allowed him to coach the team when the shot was heard. A few seconds after we saw him giving a correct imitation of "Red" grunge across the floor. Messrs. Lee and Robinson, colored plain clothes caps, had grabbed the culprit and given him the bum's rush. Landin eaked back and informed us that all he was after was his cont. It is our personal opinion that all running records between Myrtle avenue and Willoughby to Franklin avenue and Gates were about to be broken by Brooklyn's most wealthy barber. We have never seen a man carrying the weight of "Fat" Landin make such a quick getaway. True, Hoss Lane was in the box office telling Anton Niles how he (Boss) would have challenged any man who got in his way while headed for the lower section of Brooklyn, but it was Landin who turned to Julian Coleman late in the evening and he never going home alone. When there's going to be total darkness all that I need is my overcoat, AND THAT WILL BE CARRIED OVER MY ARM. Brother Quentin Vaughan, one of the finest characters in the city of Brooklyn, having seen service in France, held his ground and after Leo and Robinson had captured the enemy decided to call it a night, and with his charming better-half he us all a fond farewell. Charlie (Stiffle) Smith also held his ground, and his only comment was that if Sidney Miller from Cass Auter's had been present Landin would have been forced to share the honors with a getting back to quiet secrecy. Brooklyn of hurburg rounds me of the story they are of how Brooklyn the genial barber who has seen the longest service at Cass Auter's got a setback last week. Brown approached two ladies of his acquaintance and as he opened his mouth to ask a question one of the ladies hastily said: "Feeding, Mr. Brown? Choking who?" Which shows that even women are forced to keep up with the times. True to his word, Joss McMahon, matchmaker at Tex Rickard's New Madison Square Garden, started the works rolling with at least one colored fighter on the card last Friday night. The Christmas Fund card will find both Tiger Flowers and George Godfrey on the bill. Godfrey's appearance will be the high skim for W. Rollo Wilson to slip into town from the Quaker City, and will possibly be taken in tow by Charlie Magill. Charlie, upon his return from the football game on Thanksgiving day, said that Rollo took him to the Mayor, who turned over the keys of the city in a hurry. It is the opinion of Cumberland Posey of Pittsburgh, and sometimes of the Pittsburgh "Courder," that we should not remind the world that we were instrumental in making Bill Madden sit down at St. Helena. The "Little Napoleon," Cumberland feels, was a wonderful man while he was at the head of the Incorporators, but Cumberland is not aware of the charge of treason lodged against "Little Bill" by his own players, and the Pittsburgher is also unacquainted with the part this writer played in helping "Napple" to his exalted position—and also helping him down after he had passed his usfulness. If "Rob" Douglas had the ideas of Bill Madden he would never occupy the seat he now holds down in professional basketball. Buddy Saunders is on the warpath and rearing to go. Buddy dropped in the other night to tell that he is willing, ready, and anxious to meet any man in the world up to 42 pounds. Buddy has been making a good showing here of late and has held his own with some of the top术师. He feels that he is entitled to a shot in the neighborhood in the near future and the case is now up to our friend Eddie McMahon. Now that they are going to bring George Godfrey here to appear on the Christmas Fund card, the time is ripe for John Lester Lemonson to get another shot at the Commonwealth. John Lester disputes Godfrey's claim to a shot at the best in the game until such time as he can prove to the world that he is better than John Lester himself. Some weeks ago we heard that Johnson was slated to meet Bud Gorman at the Commonwealth, but the match apparently fell through. With the closing of the football season we breathe a sigh of relief. This because we feared some enterprising sundown sheer would uncover the fact that a "black Grange" had arisen on the football horizon and Oscar Mischews would have to write a story about him and feature him in the movies. From the turn things are taking even the original "Bod" appears to be having a hard time holding on to that certified check for a hundred thousand dollars. The announcement of the coming of the world-famous Collie team to the Renaissance Casino this Sunday night will naturally leave Harlem all "hat up." This is as it should be. For years our colored basketball players have tried to break into the big money by defeating the Celtics, but Dame Fortune has simply refused to smile on them. This time, with the experience gained from meeting the hardest teams in the game and holding their own with them, the colored players stand a better chance for victory than at any other time in their checkered career. So the "Golden boy" will return to the wars at the Commonwealth Sport (Chu this Saturday night)? Well, that's good news, but he is not meeting John Lester Johnson when he faces Ray Neuman. For some reason or other we suspect that John Lester would be about the man to meet Jack DeMave, and if Jack wins we want to see him matched with Johnson. We refuse to accept the glorious things said of DeMave until he shows us what he can really do against the man who smashed three of Jack Dempsey's rips when the latter was in the making. Perhaps Tiger Flowers will oblige by meeting DeMave after the Garden bouts on the 23rd. Wot?

Hines defeated the famous Jesse Wilkerson of Washington three years ago for the title. He ponent at the first was Ginger, who he defeated in the play off, putting Thompson and Ginger in a tie for second place. W. Elmore was also in the tie for second place, but owing to business taking him on a six months' tour he cannot compete in the play off.

Billiard Notes Clarence Jones demonstrated to both players and spectators at the Lafayette Hillard Emporium his ability to play a winning game of billiards. Some of his games were won by close margins. He won 11 out of 13, dropping one to R. G. Johnson, of the Paradise Orchestra, for whom he was playing 55 to 50, losing by 11.

Tom Fahy's "Golden Boy" to Meet Ray Neuman of Hoboken This Week—Bobby Risden to Meet Willie White, While Sandy Taylor Will Go in Against Morris Meola in Another Ten They call him Tommy Hinghey, and he appears to be one of the most retiring and modest little white fighters that ever appeared at the Commonwealth Sport Club. No fanfare of bugles greeted his coming, nor did the snare drums roll at his appearance. Apparently he was unknown and no salves of applause when he took his corner to face Mr. Brown in the star ten of the evening. But, and you can make that BUT as large as you please, with a well-timed right cross he brought the entire house to feet. It happened in the second round. Brown, as confident as ever, went out to leit-hand Tommy to death, as hecen his custom for the past few months, but Tommy had been doing a great deal of thinking and somebody must have schooled him to the use of that right. They had fiddled around for a chile and having a high old time when like a bolt from a clear sky fommy let fly that right which is now famous and it connected, solidly, my lords and ladies, on he jaw of brown and he wore down as if polo-axed. Mark well but it was the first time that trown had been so ill treated by my fighter in his entire career and that he was woozy as he took count of nine there could be in question. This was the high light of this light but Brown got up and coached the storm and eventually handed Tommy a good hearing. Hughes covered repeatedly wring the course of the light and closed to stand up and face the laught sent his way in revenge or coming pretty near removing brown from the spotlight. Black Bill again showed fangs that he has a betty pinch when he came pretty near putting down Tommy Melito for the full count in one of the early rounds. The Scottish champion appeared to be much heavier than Bill, and the urban throughout the fight reused to rough it with him. But when the going got good in the open Bill uncovered a left Scotty's midsection that was leavating, to say the least, Bill and the pleasure of stopping the foot in the fifth round, but the little boy tried to claim a foul and during the excitement he was he beneficently of a long count. Bill concentrated his attack to Scotty's body after that and won the decision after keeping Melton in distress almost during the entire fight. The coming Saturday night will see Jack DeMazo called the "Golden Boy," snucking in against Ray Neumann of Hoboken in the star ten of the evening. DeMazo has won himself gang of publicity and will appear to a full house to show the cares of which he have been making in the form of another ten will bring together Robby Risdon and Willie White while Sandy Taylor will take the other spot against Morris Medcalf. Fine houses have been greeting the cards at the Commonwealth and Saturday night saw anotherumper gathering out to witness hoops.

These three instilling young men, Engene A. Rhodes, Osavir Beatrice and Andrew J. Bood, who are behind the affair, are famous for giving the plan, love and living public something unusual and better when year They have set a standard which other will now find it easy to overcome. In serving Paul Spencer and his world famous Canadian orchestra, the Three Joymakers, have achieved what many would have thought impossible on a Christmas night. It is no neglect to say that this famous orchestra which is making its last public appearance Christmas night at New Star Casino before calling on Dec. 25 on the S. S. Majestic to open at the world famous Kit Kat Club in London, January 8, by special appointment from Lord and Lady Bryng, are exceptional musicians, as Kit Kat Club is London's most exclusive rendezvous, and nothing but the best artists throughout the world are presented at this famous club. Such well known bands as Paul Whitman's, Vincent Legris, Ben Bernie, Paul Spencer, Brook John and noted artists like Sophie Tucker, The Dolle Sisters, Frank Timney and many others of procreation have held away at the renowned Kit Kat. Mr. Specht has arranged through one of the powerful broadcasting stations in New York to have this famous band broadcast their music to Europe some night before Christmas, to be picked up in London before sailing from this country. All other stations will be shut down while Paul Specht and his band are broadcasting watch for announcements in New York daily papers. If this tiro had not always produced what they had advertised, the announcement that this wonderful band would play for their dance Christmas night would be unifiable, but owing to the established reputation of the Joy-makers the public can depend upon hearing Paul Specht and his famous Canadian band at New Star Casino Christmas night. In addition to Paul Spicer, the Three Joymakers have secured our old favorite, Allie Ross and his orchestra, an all star combination of picked musicians, to alternate with Mr. Spicer's jazz arrists, which means it's going to be one wonderful night of joy. It surely makes this dance the most outstanding affair of the holiday season and a record crowd is certain to take advantage of a rare opportunity of enjoyment. In speaking to one of the boys, it appears that they are making arrangements to have as a part of honor some famous purists, certain people everybody in New York would be delighted to see, and if it is the ones we think, they have been on everybody's tongue NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 16, 1925 World's Champion Basketball Team THE FOOTBALL CLUB OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK For the First Time in Ten Years the Supremacy of the Celtics Is Threatened, and by a Colored Team, the Renaissance Five, Which Will Meet the Crack White Players at the Renaissance Casino This Sunday Night Martin Portrait Unveiled at City College Wednesday Most Dignified Program Marked This Honor to the Late Musician To those who made the journey up the hill to the Great Hall in the College of the City of New York, was given a program of dignity and solitude that will long be remembered on Wednesday evening, Dec. 9, 1925. The occasion was the unveiling of the portrait done in oils by Edwin A. Hastleton of the late David J. Martin. The program opened up with Overrease, Magic Flights, Mozart, played by the Senior Orchestra of the Martin-Smith School, School, under the direction of Europe Maria Martin, older son of the late David L.

The first Movement from the Military Symphony, by Hardy, was played by the Junior Orchestra of the school under the direction of David L. Martin, younger son of the late David L. Martin, the Rev. Shelton Hale Bentley gave an address, followed by a solemn song, "Ritrina Vindhya" from A. von was sung by Mrs. M. W. Brown, with Mies Andrades' landsay at the piano, Mr. J. Belhousie stood followed with an address, and then young David L. Martin played a hello solo, "Deep River" most distinctly and effectively. Mr. John N. Nall followed with an address, then the tense moment arrived as little Gortrude R. Martin, the young child of the late David L. Martin, drew back the curtain from the portrait, as if he would speak to the vast audience which gazed upon a most striking likeness of the young man who had meant all that the speakers of the evening had been saying from a musical, religious and civic standpoint, as well as best husband and father. In the next movement, which I to be a fitting as well as possessive close to the memorable vanilla, the orchestra and chorus played and sang Handel's Large without a conductor, implying their influence by the unseen hand of their former conductor, David L. Martin. FLASHES STOP THE VANDALS The Philadelphia Flashes the Five trounced the Vandals of Atlantic City in Philadelphia last Friday night by the score of 44 to 22. This was the Flashes' eighth consecutive victory. throughout the country for the past two months. Preceded for more information, this one of the Joymakers, the most conservative of the three would say no more, just smiles and said: "We want to surprise our patrons Christmas night." Philadelphians Took Thrilling Contest From Superiors on Latter's Own Court Last Week Brooklynites Stumped by Ability of Visitors to Stage Last Minute Rush From the Rear. Which Gave Them the Game They became howling derisies at Labor Lyceum last Wednesday night when the famous Philadelphia Panthers stacked up against Brooklyn's own, the Superiors. But only for a time did the people of the "City of Churches" give a correct imitation of the world renowned Turkish whirlers, for the Philadelphiaians" staged a second half comeback that brought dismay not only to the Superiors, but their followers as well. And at that the thrills continued all through the contest. The brooklynites lurished the crowd at Labor Lyceum not only good music, but the kind of basketball which is associated with the crack Renascence Five when they meet the leading white teams. The game ended with a 23-21 score in favor of the Panthers. The outstanding player of the night, putting all the players together on a par, was Percy Holmes. Percy played such a brilliant game, almost guarding three men at one time, we took it upon ourselves to promise Percy that with a little more weight in time "Bob" Douglas will seriously consider him for the Renascence. Which is saying a great deal at this time as Douglas must pilot a winning team to be able to hold the enviable position now enjoyed by the Renaissance. But we are getting away from the game. It looked bad for Philadelphia all during the first half, which the Brooklynites took by a safe margin, but one man on the Philadelphia team in this half gave promise or what he could do. This player, whose name we missed, is a long shot shark and when he throw a few of them in the first half the crowd thought he was coming out. No such thing. Its team came out of the second half and started from the rear with a rush and uncovered their heavy artillery. They made the Brooklynites break ground and soon had them tied.

Brooklyn fans were forced to give him the big hand. The Philadelphia played with a confidence breed of hard battles in the past, and after they had Brooklyn where they wanted her they administered the winning stab that gave them the game. The showing made by the Superlovers gives promise of plenty of trouble for the other teams they will most likely meet on their own home court during the season. The Brooklynites should grab some holiday dates as the turnout last Wednesday night proves that they can get 'em in on larger numbers if they will but go after 'em.

Our New Year's afternoon Coach Charlie Bradford will again take his place at the wheel of the "Red and Black Machine" and will endeavor to lead the basketball players of the St. Christopher Club over the remains of the Superior Club of Brooklyn. So that Charlie will be prepared to meet the Brooklyners we take pleasure in discovering, in man Charles" that these splendid youngsters from the City of Churches are playing a great game and will meet St. Christopher toe to toe. The St. Christopher Club of St. Philip's Parish is fostered by the church and the result is that the youngsters making up the team are as fine an array of young men as can be found anywhere in the city. They have been taught to play for the "games' sake" and their last appearance against the same team in Brooklyn is still fresh in the memory of the people across the bridge for the gentlemanly manner in which they met their foes. St. Christopher gave this city some of the most thrilling basketball games in the past, and the way the present is coming along we have every reason to look forward to the future for a repetition of these thrillers which made New Year's afternoon a day to be an artistically looked forward to.

Wilbecan to cease his political activities, an order which is said to have come direct from the Postmaster-General, and the furore which it has created leaves the outcome not yet in sight. For years Mr. Wilbecan has been one of the most active Republicans in Brooklyn, which, when added to his various activities in behalf of the race of which he is a member, shows that he is an outstanding figure in this borough. Apparent of the story carried by the "Brooklyn Times," his friends, both white and colored, are taking advantage of the opportunity to voice their resentment against this action from the party which he has so faithfully served in all these years.

The appended story from the Brooklyn Times will throw some light on the occurrence of last week which has created a sensation in Brooklyn: George E. Wibecan, named colored officer and employee of the Brooklyn Post Office, last night resigned his membership in the Sixth Assembly District Republican organization and will, it is said, retire from all political activities. He will no longer be affiliated with the Republican party. Wibecan says he will not be a member of the Democratic party, but will adopt a stand-off policy. His action is implied in part in an order from Washington, and partly because of resentment over the treatment which he says he has received at the hands of post- and party representatives. It is stated that a meeting to contest against Wibecan's trust year will be held in the near future and that it will be sponsored not above by representatives of the colored race. Wilde has been in the past service for twenty-eight years and has an excellent record. In spite of the large number of adults in Re- lation to adult classes, he has avail- ed proper instruction.

A complaint that Winecan was unfully active politically, was received in Washington, and Postmaster Fitzman is said to have received a letter ordering that Winecan cease his political and civic activities or else tender his resignation. It is understood that Winecan has agreed to cease all political activities, as evidenced by his resignation last night, but that he will not give up his constitutional right to engage in civil work. He was one of the founders and is still a moving spirit in the Lincoln Settlement, a colored welfare organization. Winecan's understood determination to cease being a Republican is said to be due to rement that a Republican administration should demand his retirement from politics. For many years he has been a at. O. P campaign speaker. He is retired National head of the Colored Ellis.

Special Services Continue at the Concord Baptist Church Dedicating Splendid New Organ Former Sunday School Superintendent Dodson Attributes Church's Progress in Music to Effects of Professor Murrow's Work Special services dedicating the new $15,000 pipe organ continue at the Concord Baptist Church on Adelphia street, near Myrtle avenue, this week.

Prof. Murrow was for years the christian of the Sunday School, which he took delight in training at Christmas, Easter and Anniversary Day. N. B. Dodson, who was Superior-indent of the Sunday School from 1892 to 1920, attributed the success of the school in music to Prof. Murrow's flue art in getting the school to sing.

Haled to Court for Driving With Defective Brakes Frank Greene, 27, of 1931 Horkamer street, learned last week that courts do not work on the installation plan and there is no discount for cash. Greene pleaded guilty to a charge of operating an automobile that had defective brakes and was fined $5 by Magistrate Harry Miller in the Jamaican Magistrate's Court. Greene took some bills from his pocket, fingered them a minute or two and then said: "Your honor, I got all but three "Your honor, I got all but three or that five." "You mean you have $27?" asked the magdlrate. Greene admitted he meant just that. Magistrate Miller said he was sorry but partial payments could not be accepted and committed Green for five days in the City prison. Telephone calls to the clerk's office late the same day, however, indicated that Greene seemed to have friends that appeared to have what Greene had "all but" and was anxious to find out where to deposit the money.

The story of an怒狠 hamburger steak was unraveled in the Madrasist's Court here last week, when Thomas Casswell, 35, of Ramson avenue, appeared against John Morrissey, a taxi driver, of Chestnut street, Colordarsh, whom he charged with felonious assault. According to Casswell's story, he entered a lunch wagon on Mort avenue and ordered a hamburger steak with an egg on top, but when the steak was served him, the egg was missing. What happened after that, Casswell declared was not clear to him, for he next found himself lying on the floor with a scalp wound in the bargain. He claimed that Morrissey had struck him with a stool. Morrissey pleaded he thought his customer was going to shoot him and knocked him down. This testimony was corroborated by witnesses and Magdalate Conway dismissed the charge.

Payne, formerly United States Consul to the Danish West Indies, and up to the time of his death a judge under the present Administration in the islands purchased from Denmark by this country many years ago. For fifteen years Judge Payne served in the diplomatic service and built up a record in the consular service for efficiency and faithfulness, of which his friends in this country have been justly proud. A native of Virginia, he was one of the astute politicians of his section and in his early days a close friend of the late Reverend Moss of Concord Baptist Church, Brooklyn, N. Y. Judge Payne served under four presidents and upon the taking over of the Virgin Islands by this government played a prominent part in the transfer proceedings. However, where he had many friends among the islanders while a United States Consul, it is claimed that his elevation to the judiciary brought with it unusual severity upon the part of Judge Payne where the poor people, were concerned and this alienated the affections of those who had previously felt proud of the recognition of the government for the services rendered by one of the few colored men while in the diplomatic service. His body was born to its last resting place by his associates on the bench, but in spite of the feeling against Judge Payne by many among the colored people, the Virgin Islanders are very resentful against the present naval authorities for failure of Governor Trunch to send a personal representative to the funeral. It is being pointed out that in the times of the Danes that such an attitude would be looked upon as an unfortune and paternal Denmark would never carry her color prejudice that far.

They have also learned that Candy, Pumpkin Pies, Cookies, etc., "fit for a "King" are made with ALAGA Cane Syrup. Regular shipments are now being received, right from where the Sugar Cane grows, to meet the rapidly increasing demand. ALAGA Cane Syrup is the entire Juice of the Sugar Cane plant boiled down to syrup, with nothing added, except a very small portion of corn syrup to prevent sugaring in the can. Yes! It is higher than ordinary syrups, but not half as expensive as maple syrup; whereas it is among the choicest of table and fancy baking syrups. Nevertheless, it has a flavor all its own. Ask your grocer for the Real ALAGA Cane Syrup. If he does not have it, keep on asking him till he gets it for you. Until then the following stores can supply you: HARLEM (Above 120th Street) Chas.

Parmore was wanted on a charge of murdering a deputy sheriff near iron City, Ga., and when the authorities sought his extradition he appealed to Governor Silzer, declaring that he would not receive a trial in Georgia. He used every legal means to stay in New Jersey, but a writ of habeas corpus was denied by Chancellor Buckes and Governor Silzer, after a bitterly contested hearing, ordered him extradited. Governor Silzer warned the authorities in Georgia that Parmore must have a fair trial or there would never be another fugitive returned from New Jersey under his administration. Governor Walker, in his letter to Governor Silzer, wrote that he was sure that the executive would be "pleased to receive official notice that Silas Parmore has been tried by a jury in Georgia, given a fair and impartial trial and found not guilty, by a jury of twelve white south Georgia citizens. You will remember my assurance that he would be given such a trial, and the same has been accorded him without any pressure from this office or otherwise. "You will recall the insults heaped upon the State of Georgia by the Elizabeth (N. J.) papers, and this incident but illustrates the fact that some of the outside press has fit to emphasize Georgia as bad, while, as a matter of fact, the State of Georgia and its people are no worse than those of other states." BUSINESS IN N. Y. HITTING ON ALL SIX ALBANY, Dec. 14.—Business is hitting on all six these days. Nearly 8 p.m. more companies have been incorporated in New York State so far this year than in all of 1924. Last month receipts to the Corporation Bureau in the office of Florence E. S. Knapp, Secretary of State, ran to better than $622,000. Every month is a record-breaker. The number of companies incorporating last month, amounting to 2,050, is $68 over the same month a year ago. More companies mean more business and more employment. The Florida real estate boom is cropping out in New York state those days through the incorporation of land companies that will deal in Florida acreage. Next Summer's styles will be fashioned by many more garment-making concerns, no less than 71 having incorporated last month. Never a month passes without from 10 to 20 new motion-picture companies, last month's aggregation numbering 24. ATTORNEY CONFIDENT OF VICTORY IN TEXAS Fred C.

Morningings 1450 To Be Preceded by Dinner at Headquarters House Colonel Spencer and Captain Fish to Be Present The 300th Infantry, N. Y. N. G. (Old 15th Regiment) is to be reviewed by its wartime commander and first colonel, William Hayward, on Wednesday evening, Dec. 23, 1925, at the armory. Colonel Hayward is to review the regiment formally for the first time since it has been located in its new armory at 143rd street, east of Lenox avenue. Colonel Hayward will be the guest of Colonel William A. Taylor and other officers of the regiment at dinner at the Headquarters House, 58 West 130th street, preceding the review. A special feature of the review will be an exhibition of the noncommissioned officers' school under Major Keviney O'Connor of the 1st Infantry, N. Y. N. G. Major O'Connor has been working faithfully with his "prep" school all winter and hopes to stage a final exhibition with the crack noncommissioned officers and state-trained men of the regiment. The review will be the second review of the season, the first having been tendered to Colonel Thomas Fulbright service, commanding officer of the 105th Regiment, N. V. N. G. (old 82nd of Brooklyn). A large attendance of enlisted men is expected, and all old veterans of the regiment have been invited as special guests of the regiment. The 15th Regiment veteran corps, composed of the men who fought throughout the World War under the leadership of Colonel Hayward, will be present and pass in review before him. The present commander of the veteran corps, Mr. Renold B. Lightston, has been invited to represent the veteran corps at the dinner. The review is quite timely at this time, in view of the fact that it was during the fall season of the year and the beginning of the winter in the stormy days of 1918 when the regiment saw 151 days of continuous fighting and when they won the distinction of being the first troops of the American Expeditionary Forces to reach the Rhine. The regiment was the only American unit to serve with the French forces throughout the war, being attached to the 161st Division of the Fourth French Army. Colonel Hayward is co-operating with the movement to establish a monument in Harlem to the perpetual honor of the Negro soldiers who served in the World War. Definitive plans have taken shape for the erecting of such a creditable memorial. Aside from the specially invited guests to be present at the review, including all of Harlem's most prominent citizens and leaders, Colonel Hayward will have with him Col. Lorillard Spencer and Capt. Hamilton Fish, U. S. representative in Congress, and many officers of the old regiment. The active National Guard of the State of New York will be represented by Col. Monday of Major Harry's staff, Division Adjutant; L. Col. William R. Wright, of the Division Staff; Col. McDermott, Capt. Henderson, Capt. Flannery, of the 165th Regiment, N. Y. N. G., and other officers. The armory will be opened to the public to witness the review. A cordial invitation is extended to all to visit the armory. Tickets for the public may be obtained at the armory. The Geo. P. Davis Post of the American Legion of Brooklyn and the veteran corps of the 15th Infantry have been invited to attend in a body.

C., Dec. 14.—Assistant Attorney General Matthew W. Bullock of Massachusetts, an active member of the Eta Phi Chapter of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, will deliver the annual address at the public meeting of the convention of that organization which will convene at the seat of the Iota Omega Graduate Chapter at Tuskegee, Alabama, from December 27 to 31 inclusive. Assistant Attorney General Bullock, who is a graduate of Dartmouth College and Harvard Law School, was formerly the head coach of the football team of the Massachusetts Agricultural College; he then spent some time as teacher of Latin, history and social science at Morehouse College, Atlanta, Georgia, after which he became Dean of the Alabama A. and M. College. During the late war he served as a Y. M. G. A. secretary both here and in France. Subsequently thereto he assumed the duties of the Executive Secretary of the Boston Urban League, which position he relinquished in 1921 when he became the Assistant Attorney General of the State of Massachusetts. These educational qualifications and varied experiences of Attorney Bullock render him exceptionally qualified to address the group of aspiring young college men who comprise the membership of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and the host of visitors who will attend the convention.

ORLANDO, Fla., Dec. 14.—The body of Arthur Henry, who was spirited away from the Orange General Hospital by three unidentified masked men on the night of Nov. 26, was found in the Convay section, eight uniles east of here. Tuesday afternoon, information received at the office of Orange County Sheriff Karel said. Henry had been shot to death, it was said, the supposition being that he was killed immediately after being forcibly removed from the hospital by the trie who had gained admittance and taken possession of the wounded man after covering the guards with revolvers. Henry was taken to the hospital after being shot and beaten into submission by Detectives George Jump and D. W. Dority, who had also been wounded by Henry. The two officers were sent into the colored section to investigate a report of a shooting affray. Dority entered the house where the disorder was reported. His flashlight was shot from his hand and he received a bullet wound from the gun or Henry. Detective Jump went to the aid of his fellow officer, and was likewise shot. When Henry attempted to flee, Jump shot him in the leg and handcuffed him. He was removed to the hospital and placed under arrest. Shortly after midnight, three masked men surprised the guards and seized the wounded man, placing him in waiting automobile and spiritting him away. The following day the sheriff's office received an anonymous tip that the body of Henry could be found in the Conway section, but investigation proved futile. Both detectives are still in the hospital recovering. Highest N. J. Court to Pass on Noel Case TRENTON, N. J., Dec. 14—WILLIAM A. Wachschenk, attorney for Harrison W. Noel, white of Montclair, has obtained a writ of error for an appeal before the Court of Errors and Appeals, the highest tribunal in New Jersey, from Noel's conviction on a charge of murder for the killing of Raymond Pierce, taxicab driver. Chancellor Walker had denied an application for a similar writ, which would have taken an appeal before the State Supreme Court. Wachschenk set forth that the verdict was contrary to the evidence; that Noel's confession was made because of promises of concessions; that the burden of proof of Noel's sanity rested on the State; that County Judge Caffrey had trailed to so charge the jury, and that the Court had made improper rulings regarding the evidence submitted.

Association of Trade to Hold Election At the annual election of officers of the Association of Trade and Commerce, Friday evening, Dec. 18, it is expected that the general membership will express their dissatisfaction of the activities of the Association as they have been conducted since it was organized in 1920 by electing a new set of officers. Three sets of names were submitted by the nominating committee, out of which a slate has been compiled, headed by Ex-Assemblyman Pope B. Billips and composed of men who have pledged themselves to produce a program for 1926 that will be a credit to the Association and a benefit to the citizens and business people of Harlem, particularly north of 125th street. Ga. Klansman Made Collector Ga. Klansman Made Collector Negro Leaders Urge G.O.P Senators Not to Confirm Nomination WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.—Protests have been sent to all Republican Senators over President Coolidge's choice of M. O. Dunning to be Collector of Customs at Savannah. The President's plea, in his message, for equal rights for all races was discounted in their minds by his sending Dunning's name to the Senate almost simultaneously. Dunning is an avowed leader of the Ku Klux Klan, and received $25,000 a year as a chief organizer in Georgia, according to the leaders opposed to him. When Mr. Coolidge was at Swampscott, Dunning called on him, then came to Washington and conferred with Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Andrews. A few days later Dunning was designated as the new Collector. Protests were entered then emphasizing that Dunning was first a McAdoo. Democrat who came to the New York Convention and holted John W. Davis for Coolidge when Davis attacked the Klau. Dunning is said to have claimed the credit for swinging West Virginia, Mr. Davis's home State, to Coolidge, and made this the basis for obtaining the Collectorship. The recent death of Henry Lincoln Johnson, National Committeeman and one of the most influential Negro leaders in the South, complicated the G. O. P. patronage problem and the Johnson organization protested Dunning's appointment as depriving it of patronage and added insult to injury because of Dunning's Klan affiliations which he retains. He is said to have told the Treasury chiefs he would have to continue as a Klan organizer, as the salary of Collector was not adequate. Nearly all Republican Senators received letters urging them to defeat Dunning's nomination.

A CLASSIFIED AL Is the Key to Everybody's Pocketbook Lawyers Exchange Rhinelander Briefs Lawyers Exchange Rhinelander Briefs Ex-Judge Mills Asks That Jury Verdict Be Set WHITE PLAINS, N. Y., Dec. 14. —Ex-Judge Isaac N. Mills of Mount Vernon completed Saturday his 2-page brief in support of his motion to set aside the verdict of a jury which denied Leonard Klp Rhinelander an annulment of his marriage to Mrs. Alice Beatrice Jones Rhinelander of New Rochelle, on the ground that she deceived him as to her color, and exchanged briefs with Lee Pursons Davis, counsel for Mrs. Rhinelander, yesterday. The papers have now been submitted to Supreme Court Justice Joseph Morschauser for his decision. Judge Mills does not raise any question of law, but contends that the jurors erred in their decision when they held that Rhinolander knew his wife was colored, whereas he maintained in his suit that she committed a fraud by claiming she was white, another important point in his favor he says, was her concealment by silence as to her color in that she failed to tell him before the marriage she was a quadroon. It is generally believed that Judge Morschauuser will not hand down his decision until after the first of the year, as he will have to go through 2,200 pages of testimony. Dr. James Clark Bennett, eye specialist and member of the New York Bar, with offices in Yonkers, announced his intention today of bringing a suit for damages against Fred C. Santford of 121 Saratoga avenue, Yonkers, a juror, in the Hinkelman case, because of his alleged charge made to Supreme Court Justice Morschauer which resulted in a Grand Jury investigation that Dr. Bennett had talked to him about the case during the trial. Dr. Bennett says he did not say a word and thinks the charge was made in a spirit of revenge and he will sue for slander and monetary damages. Beauty It's Made in Our Shop!

The coming of Dr. Sweet will give the citizens of New York an opportunity to see the brave young physician, who with his friends defended his home against the invasion of a mob. Dr. Sweet is one of the most prominent of the Kappa men, and stands high in the fraternity. He is the polemarch of the Detroit Chapter, and under his direction the chapter in Detroit has become one of the most active of the fraternity chapters.

This will be followed by a basketball game between the Omega Psi Pi fraternity and the Kappa Alpha Psi fraternity at the Renalissance Casino. Among the prominent members of the fraternity who have asked for reservations are Dr. Midian O. Bousfield, president of the Liberty Life Insurance Company of Chicago; William H. Harrison and W.

When the distinguished philosopher referred to Dr. Sweeney he pointed out that it was all right to be leave, but intimated that one should not allow his body to be used for a burial fire. The difference between the Northern and Southern whites is that they have a different form of prejudice in the different sections. You make known his attitude on the notion of the State of Virginia on passing a law which prohibits the intermarriage of races, the great lawyer related his experiences in Richmond. While talking with a branch supporter of the law who contended that it presented the interrogation of races, Mr. Darrow said that he asked the gentleman in which group did he belong. At this point, the speaker told him, to determine to which race he belongs, depends on how you go back. Mr. Darrow laid stress upon the driving of money and education opportunities to exist in the country. The future does not depend upon money and education. but they are mighty big factors. It helps he elaborated on the subject of weight, the speaker expressed his reluctance on giving advice. Vehicle is usually free, and anything that is given away for nothing is worth anything. He gave this as his reason for not desiring to give the following suggestions: "Become self-supporting, if you can. The Negroes have been living on the as a race. Every time Negro gets into an independent business it is a great deal better than depending upon someone else, people who is his own boss is doing something." Many have given poetry, melody and information far beyond the whites. A Negro should write a novel without any trace of color in it. All of the characters should be white; but if you using a waiter it he must be covered. Dancing a minute to allow the audience to become quiet, win from an outburst of humber, he concluded by saying that, after the book had met with success, let it be revealed that the author is colored. Discussing the problem of the Negro, Mr. Dawey explained that in order to receive full credit, the Negro must do more than the white man. Although during his speech he used the audience to break forth into rags with applause, and bring laughter, he did nothing, on Mr. Dawey, as people for lack of information thought in voting, raised a note to impress the great need for intelligence. "The only badge of equality you have in the North is the bullet, and it has been foolishly thrown away. A bullet should never be counted until after it has been cast. Your vote is always counted before the election. Negroes have overlooked their heat but by voting the Republican ticket. "I want you to be independent. Keep white politicians guessing. I don't know of any better weapon than the bullet. I assume that the white Republicans did go down South and free you; well, you have paid them back in full. In case you don't think you have, vote once more and ask for a receipt." "if blame the intelligent Negroes for being Republican decoys for pay. Negroes have the balance of power in a number of Northern States and cities. The duty of a colored man is, first, to himself and then to his race. I cannot emphasize too much the importance of being independent. Become independent and then they will look for you." Turning to another extreme fault of the Negro, he declared: "You are too blooming plops. Many people get consolation out of religion; but if the Lord was going to do something for you he would have done it long ago. I would have more confidence in Him if there wasn't a white and colored Y. M. C. A." Breaking away from the things that the Negro must overcome if he expects to take his place among the other peoples of the world, Mr. Krown pointed out their hope for the future as he saw it. There is no power to get rid of black race; the white race must reckon with the black race in the future. You are developing of genius. You can't change people by argument.

ROSTER. (In the Philadelphia Tribune) Contrary to the expressed opinions of many old-time politicians that Governor Pinnet would appoint a white person to fill the vacancy in the minor judiciary caused by the death of Hon. Annes M. Scott, the Governor Wednesday appointed Edward W. Henry as magistrate, to preside over Magistrate's Court No. 2. The news spread like wildfire and there was exasperating great rejoicing in the camps of the independent forces, for they believed that Governor Pinnet had made a wise selection and at the same time strengthened himself with colored voters of every shade of political opinion. Disaster for McCoach. Those who are supposed to know politics think that the appointment of Mr. Henry by an independent governor means disaster for William McCouch, the acknowledged boss of the thickly populated 20th Ward. Mr. McCouch has consistently refused to consider any colored person fit for any important position in spite of the fact that colored votes keep him in office. The present president gives the colored voters a chance to work for their friends and tear the 20th Ward from the clutches of a man who cares nothing for their civile and moral development. The sheen of the 20th Ward may already be heard around the clubs and streets. "Down with McCouch and his type of leadership." Mr. Henry Fit for Job. Edward W. Henry, the man appointed to the magistracy, is capable and well fitted for the position. He is a trained lawyer. In everything that touches the civic life of Philadelphia and the Negro race he may be found giving his aid and support. He erries out against wrong and comments the right. With faith in his people and the belief that right will ultimately triumph over wrong, he dares to challenge injustice in the face of hostile criticism. He believes that wise men change their opinions when sufficient facts are shown to warrant a change, butools remain steadfast even in defiance of facts and justice. For five years Mr. Henry was president of the Citizens' Club. He resigned because he could not consistently support Coolidge and Dawes, the Republican nominees for President and Vice-President respectively. At the present time he is a candidate for the presidency of the club. Mr. Henry is a graduate of Atlanta University. He received his legal training at Howard. He is a member of several secret organizations and stands high in fraternal circles. Because of his personality he is exceedingly popular. The term expires January 1, 1928.

That we go on record vigorously protesting against such illegal efforts to obstruct us in our legitimate right to organize; and be it further Resolved. That the recent activities of U. S. Assistant Attorney-General Perry W. Howard be called to the attention of the Department of Justice, with a view toward curbing this Negro from using the prestige of his high office to serve the interest of the Pullman Company. We urge every delegate in Congress to inquire into the relationships existing between said U. S. Assistant Attorney-General and the Pullman Company; and in conclusion, we appeal to every liberty-loving American who believes in justice for all men, regardless of race, color or creed, to rally to the support of the 12,000 Pullman porters of the nation fighting for a chance to exercise their God-given right to life, liberty and happiness. Resolved. That a copy of this resolution be sent to United States Attorney-General. Farzane, the New York City delegation, in Congress, and a copy given to the press. Tension Between Races Growing Federal Council of Churches Attributes Disturbances to Housing DETROIT. Dec. 15. "While the last year has exceeded all expectations in the development of interracial good-will, between the white and colored citizens in this country, a striking development has been the growing tension between the races in Northern cities," the Commission on Race Relations reported recently at the annual meeting of the Executive Committee of the Federal Council of Churches. Cleveland, Kansas City and Detroit are mentioned by name. The trouble is attributed to housing. It is imperative for the Churches to take up housing through local commissions the report urges. "Fourteen lyachings have been recorded this year up to November 15," says the report, stressing that all efforts be devoted to making 1936 a "lynchless year." It is pointed out that all the victims of mob violence in 1934 and 1935 have been Negroes. "so the matter is now fully a race-relations' problem." Race Relations, Sunday will be observed this year on February 14, the report states, adding, "Of special significance for this year and for the observance in 1926 is its broadening to include relations of Jew and Christians, of whites and Indians, and whites and Mexicans in the United States and of Orientalists as well as Negroes and white Americans." Plans were announced for a series of interracial conferences in cities of Pennsylvania and probably in Ohio during 1926. Because of migration of Negroes to the North and West, the organization of interracial committees or commissions have been carried from the South to these sections. Northern and Western cities now having interracial commissions include: Brooklyn, N. Y.; Buffalo, N. Y. Chicago, Ill.;incinnati, Ohio; Champaign, Ill.;Cleveland, Ohio; Danville, Ill.;Dayton, Ohio;Denver, Col.;Des Moines, Iowa;Gary, Ind.;Indianapolis, Indiana;Hartt, Conn.;Kansas City, Mo.

RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 14—San- uel Washington was sent to jail Thursday because he could not turn himself into a buzzard. According to the police Washington was hailed before Justice Maurice in South Side Police Court on a charge of obtaining $150 from a woman whom he told he could turn himself into a turkey buzzard and obtain the release of a friend of hers from jail. "Open that window," Justice Maurice instructed a court attache, and turning to Washington. said: "If you can turn yourself into a buzzard fly out that window." "I was just fooling, Judge." Washington answered, whereupon he was remanded to jail to await further investigation of his case. Democracy's Real Test Is the Negro Democracy's Real Test Is the Negro E. K. Jones Says New York Is Fairest State in the "The Negro is the real test of democracy in America," said Eugene Kinkle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, "and New York State probably has shown a fairer attitude and more open mind in handling the question than any other state in the country. There certainly is no other spot on the globe where so many white and Negro people reside and where there is so little friction." Mr. Jones was addressing the State Charities Conference at the Hotel Roosevelt last Thursday. Between 1910 and 1920, he pointed out, the Negro population of the northern United States increased from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000, most of the increase occurring during the war years and immediately later. He estimated the present Negro population north of the Mason and Dixon line at 2,000,000, and ascribed the increase to migration from the South. Mr. Jones said in part: "In moving North the Negroes have sought those communities giving them the most promising industrial and economic outlook. These communities in an overwhelming majority of cases have been those whose basic industries thrived. Thus Pittsburgh and Detroit, Cleveland and Chicago and the satellite towns of Gary, Duquesne, Homestead and Steelton have received large Negro accretions. Between 1910 and 1920 Akron's Negro population increased 749.3 per cent; Detroit, 611.3 per cent; Chicago, 145.2 per cent; Toledo, 203.2 per cent. "Life among the Negroes in New York City is approaching a normal state. The cosmopolitanism of the city attracts the Negro. The hot progeny of the population has generated an atmosphere of freedom and democracy. The city's reputation has been broadcast to every moss and corner of the Southland, and when Negroes decide to move it is natural for those along the Atlantic seaboard to think of New York and act accordingly. The largest majority of the Negro migrants have settled in New York City and the adjacent counties of Westchester and Nassau." Fr. S. H. Bishop Lauds Seals Sale Temporary Headquarters of Harlem Committee Now Located in Parish House Sincere appreciation of the work of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association and approval of the sale of Christmas Soals were expressed today by Father Shelton Hale Bishop of St. Philip's Protestant Episcopal Church. In advocating the sale of the little red-and-green tuberculosis soals Father Bishop said: "I am more than happy to give my endowment to the work of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association, Inc., as I know it through the Harlem Committee. The temporary situation of its headquarters here in our parish house has thrown me into closer contact with the work than ordinarily would have been possible and has brought with it a larger acquaintance with what is being done. It is only necessary to see the number of people who come in and out of the office for medical and clinical education, to judge of the quantity of work the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee is called upon to do. "Each member of this great community knows something of the inroads of tuberculosis among us. The purchase of a few Christmas Seals is within the scope of almost every person's expenditures. The sense of the need and the service should alone determine how few or how many." Just one of the many activities of the Harlem Tuberculosis Committee supported by the sale of Christmas Seals is its Health Speakers' Service. Through this department, churches, schools, clubs, mothers' meetings, trainers, etc., have benefited by the health talks given them by specialists on how to keep well and avoid tuberculosis and other diseases.

"Today the modern church has gone down under a religious bankruptcy; it has sustained a moral fall a spiritual decline." So said Pastor Stephan last Sunday night at the Darken Second Seventh Day Sunday. "Joshua, Joelot 127,128. The pastor took his text from the book of Revelations, which, said he, contained several outlines of the history of the universal evangelical church from the day of its inception to the close of probation. The pastor began his discourse by saying: "I hold no brief against some particular Protestant sect or denomination; my arrows are at no point pastor or congregation. But I do address myself to the entire religious world, the universal church." "Because of its coldness and insincerity; because of its unholy pride and colossal vanity; because of its base corruption, error and inhumanity; because of its foul worldiness, the church has fallen. She has now become the habitation of devils, the camp of every fool spirit, the cage of every unclean and hateful bird." Rush Memorial Church Rev. G. M. Oliver preached an educational sermon on Sunday morning on "The Seven Greatest Wonders, from a text in Psalm 72:18. At 3 p. m. Rev. J. H.

Dec.16-2 African Girls Not Superstitious Now Come Willingly to Day School Without Fear of Misfortune "Twenty years ago it was with difficulty that any native girl could be persuaded to come to day school, and when she did she soon stopped coming if any misfortune or sickness entered her family," writes the Rev. Robert Shields, missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church in Loanda, Africa, to the Board of Foreign Missions. "For the natives were so superstitious that they connected their misfortunes with sending their daughters to the mission. This has all passed as regards Loanda and vicinity, last year our 250 day pupils were about equally divided between boys and girls. "For the first ten years the girls came to school in pannos, sheetlike coverings; that they wound about themselves; now they come in dresses. It is their fathers' own choosing for them, and a very happy one, we are glad to say. Now we see many little native children with hats and shoes. This is a great advance, for when native fathers buy these things for their children they do not buy a plurality of wives so easily. "In those days it was not the custom to let the native girls learn to read. Now when the missionary teachers go through the villages they hear the mothers say with much pride: 'There are the women who teach girls to read and write.' "For years we lovingly and kindly cut all the fetish cords that our pupils had tied around their ankles and wrists. Such a custom could not be allowed in'a mission school that was trying to teach them to be Christians. The children soon learn to come to school without them, and now we seldom see them worn. "This year witnessed the first Sunday collection among the children. It was thought wise in former years not to ask this of them, for the majority came from heathen homes. Now many fathers and mothers give Sabbath offerings, and it is a joy to watch the children as they too gladly give their mites." The Three Joymakers The Three Joymakers Eugene Rhodes, Andrew Boyd and O'Savior Beatrize, Who Are Getting Ready for Their Big Christmas Night Affair at New Star Casino. Business Location BY C. E. ARNSTRONG. the finances of an enterprise; this article will deal with the business home. This would be the next important step finding a suitable location whether the contemplated business be manufacturing or trading, the proper location, would mean much toward the success of the business. The matter of location should be thoroughly looked into. If it be manufacturing, easy access to railroads and shipping centers, where raw materials entering into the making and the finished product itself can be transported with a minimum amount of handling at least cost. This is very advantageous both to the business as well as to the prospective customer in mind that the finished product is usually shipped to customer. For in the words, the business pays the weight on incoming raw materials while the customer pays the weight on outgoing finished products. After the proper location has been acquired the management then is faced with the problem of whether to buy or lease the location. The final decision, of course, will depend on several factors, but a newly organized enterprise should soo as much of its capital in liquid condition. I am in favor of buying for the first few years as against buying. The same conditions are applicable to a retail organization in the main, the difference being that buying takes the time of manufacturing. In many large retail organizations the products sold are manufactured by the company themselves or companies closely affiliated with them, but the average small organization, say with a capital of $5000, should not attempt to manufacture, but should concentrate on selling, because the profit to be made from quantity discount would be greater than the profit derived from any attempt in the field of manufacturing. In fact, many retailing organizations have lost large sums of money in attempts at manufacturing, being unfulfilled of the fact that their chief function in the economic scheme of things is distribution. Entrance into outside lines should only be entered in cases of extreme emergency, such as the chain stores and large mall-order houses were forced to do after it was found that they could not get the proper service from manufacturers. In these instances, where sales are running into the millions annually, the ends justify the means. Walking examination when an arrested before Magistrate Villa in Morrisdale Court Wednesday, George Hall, 29, 123 West 124th street, was held for the grand jury in 5,500 ball on a charge of stealing an automobile belonging to Louis Goldstein, white, 1879. Andrews avenue. Goldstein testified that, on December 2, he found the door of his private garage pried open and his car missing. He identified the car Hall is alleged to have been driving as the missing automobile. According to the police, Hall has served time on a similar charge. MAN HELD UP AND ROBBED IN HALLWAY Returning home early Thursday morning, William Albert, white 1473 Hoe avenue, near Jennings street, was held up in the hallway of his home and robbed of $15 in cash, a platinum watch and chain and a diamond ring, according to a report made to the police authorities. Albert said that his assailants were two husky colored men who pressed a knife against his side and choked him. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 16, 1925 Unusual Film at the Douglas Theatre Sunday Fine Array of Stars to Be Seen in "Go Straight," Which Is One of the Latest Releases Try to imagine the six best pictures you've seen blended into one screen play and you will have a partial idea of the entertainment value of "Go Straight," which will play at the New Douglas Theatre this coming Sunday and Monday, December 20-21. This is by way of saying that this unusual film offering contains a perfect combination of melodramatic adventure, humorous touches, and delicately spun romance that will insure an hour and a half of pleasurable enjoyment. The story of "Go Straight" gets away to an interesting start when a young and beautiful girl, drawn into a phit to roh the home of a millionaire, suddenly decides to reform. To do this she must break with the gang of crooks, of which she is the brains and operating head. She sends the gang notice that she is through and leaves town, going west to Hollywood. At this juncture, the director has injected some tremendously humorous as well as interesting material, showing the world famous studies, and the audience is treated to some back screen shots of Anita Stewart and other film celebrities at work. Reverting aside to the plot, a beautiful love story develops when the girl secures a post as secretary to a Hollywood bank official who soon asks her to be his wife. Mountainview, the crooks have discovered her whereabouts and solicit her aid in robbing the vow bank in which she has become a trusted employee. How she cleverly tells their endeavors is the envy of this exciting and fascinating story. The picture is further added by one of the best arrays of all star players assembled this year. The difficult and exciting role of the girl who was a rock by training but not by inclination is magnificently portrayed by tidyads Hillette, an actress of rare ability and personal charm. Opposite her, in the character of the young Hollywood bank president, Owen Moore is cast and does full justice to his role. Mary Carr, the famous mother of "Over the Hill" fame, is Moore's screen mother and acquires herself with her usual supremacy of performance. See "Go Straight" by all means. It embodies everything you like best on the screen. It is thrilling. It unfolds a fine love story. It shows the regeneration of a young girl, and is crammed with action from start to finish. Surely you can't afford to miss it. WOMAN B. M.T. AGENT SLASHED ON THROAT A desperate criminal, said to be colored by Mrs. Julia Gleitz, white, ticket agent for the B. M. T. subway at the Myrtle avenue station in Brooklyn, slashed her on the neck with a knife and robbed the change booth of $8.75 Friday. She was taken to the hospital, where several stitches were taken to bind up the ugly wound, and later removed to her residence in Lynbrook, K. T. She is expected to recover. At the time of the attack and robbery the station was deserted and the man escaped and the agent was unable to give a good description of him.

Live Representatives Wanted WRITE TODAY FOR OUR PROPOSITION Hudgins, as Seen by Writer in "New Republic" Distinction Lies in Economy of Effort and Restraint, Says Observer of Colored Comedian (From The New Republic.) CLUB ALABAM: The Alabama is more open, more easy and more leisurely than Texas Guilan's. There is a long and quite ample dance-floor lited with tables sufficiently far apart—red and white checked table-cloths under imitation palms. The entertainment is elaborate and extremely good—I like particularly the posed evolutions of the high-yellow girls in their towering pink plumes. The chief feature of the show is the Negro pantomimist and jazz dancer, Johnny Hudgins. Johnny Hudgins, who has appeared much in vaudeville, seems to have earned the reputation among the Negroes themselves of being the most considerable colored comedian since Bert Williams. And there can he no doubt that he is, in his line, a remarkable artist. What is most striking about him is the simplicity of the material which he is able to make effective. He neither sings nor tolls any jokes nor does he work up anything with a partner. One of his principal acts is a pantomime of a man singing a pathetic song with intense simple-heartedness and single-mindedness while a muted cornet supplies the bleating of a tremulous tenor voice. Another is a dance with an invisible girl; nothing he does is better than the bad few moments he passes when he has been cut in on and has lost her and is left alone on the crowded dance-floor dodging imaginary couples—disappointed, bewildered, gaping. Hudgins' great distinction lies in his economy and restraint, in his genuinely fine taste—and in his incomparable sense of musical rhythm. Everything he does—his stumblings on the dance-floor, his tossing flowers to the audience from his hat, his sudden plunge from his sobbing solo into a spasm of sprawling Charleston steps—is a part of a jazz dance. No one has ever worked more freely in stricter obedience to beat. If Hudgins is not a clown, a dancer of the first order, Mr. Soldes, who seems unaccountably not to have written about him, must tell us For attempting to strike a man who refused to give him alms, Gus Cluney, 38, no home, was sentenced to three months in the workhouse by Majisrate Barrett in Heights Court Thursday. Cluney accused Ernest Blackman, 2277 Seventh avenue, early Thursday morning and asked him for a dime with which to get a cap of coffee. Blackman is said to not answered, that he looked "sareng enough to earn a dime," and Cluney raised his arm to strike him for the "slur." Blackman grasped the man by the wrist and the two grappled, attracting Policeman Boshamer of the West 153rd street station. Boshamer placed Cluney under arrest. The police say that Cluney has served two previous terms on similar charges. Sergeant Hanson. Outley of the Ninth Cavalry. U. S. A., has been designated a captain by President Coolidge and sailed yesterday to take his new post with the Liberian frontier forces. Sergeant Outley has been serving since 1915 with the Ninth Cav airy and has seen service in the Philippine Islands, as well as in Europe during the World War. He is a graduate of Lincoln High School, Kansas City; Wondell Phillips, Chicago, and the Green College of Motors at Chicago. At the latter school he qualified as an electrical engineer and is said to have won signal distinction along this line. His mother is Mme. Moselle Outley, the pianist and former director of music at Roger Williams University, Nashville, Tenn. Outley will be in charge of the Liberian frontier forces. He will receive salaries and expenses totalling $2,500 and, in addition, travelling expenses of $500 and other perquisites. He will also be granted a two months' leave of absence each year. (Preston News Service.) CINCINNATI, Ohio, Dec. 14.—Another man was fleeced Tuesday by two men, who offered to get him a job as porter at the post office. Ray Chapman reported to the police that he met two men at Seventh and John streets, who asked him if he wanted a job as porter at the host office. He said he did. They then accompanied him to the corridor of the Government building where he was asked to put up some money to purchase a uniform. Chapman said he handed over $11. The two men disappeared and so did the $11. TO WORK OUT $100 FINE AND 30-DAY SENTENCE EAST VIEW, N. Y., Dec. 14. Charged with driving an automobile at the rate of fifty miles an hour, without even a license to drive at all.

He was sited $100 on the speeding charge, but did not have that amount, and will have to work out the fine in addition to the 30-day sentence. (President News Service.) WASHINGTON, D.

It should does it? WE DESIRE in no way, whatever the case from the southern state the one feels is her due for acquitting a innocent man of murder. Strange things than that may yet happen in Georgia. Nevertheless, we feel needed to remind Governor Walker that state did not, necessarily, give a fair trial of its own volition, house at the time Governor Silzer, the extradition papers it was with specific understanding that the accused would be protected from the violence and that he would be given a trial; either this, or no other alternative from justice would be retried Georgia from New Jersey during the绞刑 administration. WITH THE EXCEPTION of the city of Mississippi, we know of no more devoted citizen-group in the entire United States than the whites of Georgia, like as a basis for our estimate, every thing Parmore feared—mobs of depraved Georgians have justice on and taken the lives of persons since 1882, out of a total nation during the same period 1992. In other words, something per cent of all mob atrocities in United States have been stage Georgia. IF PARMORE had been apprehended in Georgia instead of New Jersey, it too probable that he would not need to be acquitted of the charges against him. THE 3,600,000 JEWS in the United States are represented in the congress by seven Congressmen, the 12,000,000 Negroes are without representation of this, therefore, on a purely population parallel with that of the Jew, the Negro entitled to at least twenty-five pressmen. AT THIS LATE DAY we are told, southern white woman that Abra Lincoln freed the slaves so that night attack unprotected white women hushands were away fighting a Confederate army. The husband course, upon learning of the action, would leave the fighting front to his family, and thus handicapsecution of the Civil War. We Georgia's Rational Moment Georgia's Rational Moment GOVERNOR WALKER, of Georgia, has sent a message to Governor Silzer, of New Jersey, apprising him of the fact that Silas Parmore, a colored man extradited by the latter some time ago, has been tried and acquitted of murder by a jury of "twelve South Georgia citizens," and that this fact should prove that Georgians are no worse than citizens of other states. It should, but does it? WE DESIRE in no way, whatever, to take from the southern state the credit she feels is her due for acquitting an innocent man of murder. Stranger things than that may yet happen down in Georgia. Nevertheless, we feel compelled to remind Governor Walker that his state did not, necessarily, give Parmore a fair trial of its own volition, because at the time Governor Silzer signed the extradition papers it was with the specific understanding that the accused man would be protected from mob violence and that he would be given a fair trial; either this, or no other alleged fugitive from justice would be returned to Georgia from New Jersey during the Silzer administration. WITH THE EXCEPTION of the citizens of Mississippi, we know of no more depraved citizen-group in the entire United States than the whites of Georgia, and take as a basis for our estimate the very thing Parmore feared—mob rule. Mobs of depraved Georgians have sat in justice on and taken the lives of 498 persons since 1882, out of a total for the nation during the same period of 4,492. In other words, something like 20 per cent of all mob atrocities in the United States have been staged in Georgia. IF PARMORE had been apprehended in Georgia instead of New Jersey, it is all too probable that he would not have lived to be acquitted of the crime charged against him. THE 3,600,000 JEWS in the United States are represented in the present Congress by seven Congressmen, while the 12,000,000 Negroes are wholly without representation of this kind. Therefore, on a purely population basis parallel with that of the Jew, the Negro is entitled to at least twenty-five Congressmen. AT THIS LATE DAY we are told by a southern white woman that Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves so that they might attack unprotected white women whose husbands were away fighting in the Confederate army. The husband, of course, upon learning of the attack would leave the fighting front to protect his family, and thus handicap the prosecution of the Civil War. What a derful thing is/ imagination!

That new interpretation of American democracy, and which none but a weak, vacillating, straddling clan would have uttered.

Attempts at Race Segregation 1817 the United States Supreme Court annuled Louisville city ordinance that provided for the negation of Negroes in a sort of pate or settle. In consequence it was believed that attempts to segregate by statute or otherwise necessity would be abandoned. It appears, however, various ingenious shifts have been adopted to amplish segregation without violating the letter law as laid down by the nation's highest court. The Supreme Court is pending a case that illustrates the tendency. Thirty taxpayers of Wash. D. C., are seeking to enjoy a neighbor from using a property owners' agreement to refrain selling property in a certain area to colored ones. The issue is whether the court will recognize and enforce such an agreement, or pronounce contrary to public policy and therefore void. It is an old common-law maxim that one cannot date the him in a The President Speaks NEARLY one-tenth of our population consists of the Negro race. The progress which they have made in all the arts of civilization in the last sixty years is almost beyond belief. Our country has no more loyal citizens. But they do still need sympathy, kindness and helpfulness. They need reassurance that the requirements of the Government and society to deal out to them evenhanded justice will be met. They should be protected from all violence and supported in the peaceable enjoyment of the fruits of their labor. Those who do violence to them should be punished for their crimes. No other course of action is worthy of the American people. "Our country has many elements in its population, many different modes of thinking and living, all of which are striving in their own way to be loyal to the high ideals worthy of the crown of American citizenship. It is fundamental of our institutions that they seek to guarantee to all our inhabitants the right to live their own lives under the protection of the public law. This does not include any license to injure others materially, physically, morally, to incite revolution, or to violate the established customs which have long had the sanction of enlightened society. "But it does mean the full right to liberty and equality before the law without distinction of race or creed. This condition cannot be granted to others, or enjoyed by ourselves, except by the application of the principle of broadest tolerance. Bigotry is only another name for slavery. It reduces to serfdom not only those against whom it is directed, but also those who seek to apply it. An enlarged freedom can only be secured by the application of the golden rule. No other utterance ever presented such a practical rule of life."—PRESIDENT CALVIN COOLIDGE in his message to the Sixteenth Congress Expressed by Our Contemporaries Damned With Faint Praise (From the Norfolk Journal and Guide) If President Coolidge had omitted altogether any references to Afro-Americans in his message to Congress he would have rendered the race a service. His weak, colorless, meaningless appeal for sympathy for the race is an affront to twelve million black Americans, who have never had their case so bungled by a President in a formal statement. The race does not ask maudlin sympathy. It wants a square deal and equal opportunity with other citizens since it shares with other citizens equal responsibilities. The President virtually condoned political and social injustices as practiced upon the race in America when he pointed out that to guarantee to any body of citizens the right to "live their own lives under the protection of the public law" did not "include license to injure others materially" or to violate the established customs which have long had the sanction of enlightened society. That is a new interpretation of American democracy, and one which none but a weak, vacillating, straddling politician would have uttered. It is the President's own way of evading an endorsement of anti-lynching legislation and getting around segregation and discrimination in the Federal Government departments. There are no customs having the sanction of enlightened society that are higher than the organic law of the law of the land, and in compromising with such customs Mr. Coolidge is placing his executive sanction upon bigotry and all the evils that flow from it. We have had much stronger and more statesmanlike utterances from Southern Governors during recount years. If President Coolidge will let the race question entirely alone he will render a service far more effective to colored Americans than will ensue from his periodic attempts to appease the mob and appeal to its perverted conscience at the same time. Attempts at Race Segregation (From the Chicago Daily News.) In 1917 the United States Supreme Court annuled a Louisville city ordinance that provided for the segregation of Negroes in a sort of pale or settlement. In consequence it was believed that attempts at raco segregation by statute or otherwise necessarily would be abandoned. It appears, however, that various ingenious shifts have been adopted to accomplish segregation without violating the letter of the law as laid down by the nation's highest tribunal. In the Supreme Court is pending a case that illustrates the tendency. Thirty taxpayers of Washington, D. C., are seeking to enjoin a neighbor from violating a property owners' agreement to refrain from selling property in a certain area to colored persons. The issue is whether the court will recognize and enforce such an agreement, or pronounce it contrary to public policy and therefore void. It is an old common-law maxim that one cannot do by indirection that which the law prohibits doing in a direct manner. Trying to segregate a race by agreements among property owners seems to be a clear instance of an indirect effort to accomplish a forbidden and. Should the Supreme Court sustain the agreement by ordering the issue of the injunction sought, the decision would be a great surprise to students of constitutional interpretation and basic legal principles. Blows His Own Horn Blows His Own Horn Author of "From Superman to Man" Tells Why His Book Should Have Wide Reading Among Negroes By J. A. ROGERS A philosopher, trying to figure out why hens' eggs were in demand, and ducks' eggs were not, came to the conclusion that it was because the duck laid her eggs in silence, while the hen made such a noise that you simply couldn't ignore her. The editor of The Amsterdam News has kindly offered me space to tell why "From Superman to Man" should be read, so I am going to initiate the hen and blow my horn a bit. "From Superman to Man" should be read because it lifts the so-called race question out of the rut of prejudice and cheap sentiment and shows that what we have to deal with is not a Negro problem but a section of the eternal human problem. It should be read because it is a modern and scientific discussion of the subject, with the latest findings in anthropology, sociology, economics and history presented in a simple and interesting manner. It should be read because it represents independent Negro literature. It is, so far as I know, the only work of importance on the Negro not published or financed in any way by white people, being published by myself. With no Negro publishing firms, the race is dependent upon white publishers, who will give to the world only what is safe for white supremacy. "From Superman to Man," even after it had been recognized by several universities, was refused by white publishers, when I objected to their mutilating it so as to inject their own sentiment. One white philanthropist who, without my asking, offered me a few hundred dollars" to aid in its publication, withdrew her offer when I refused to alter pages 108-110 to suit her prejudices. On the other hand, the book was welcomed by many white persons whom I have reason to believe are genuine friends of the Negro. One of them, a professor at the University of Chicago, on being given a copy by her maid wrote me a letter of congratulation, bought fourteen copies that she sent to prominent educators, used it in her classes, and invited me to address her students at a reception given at her home. Again, the Catholic Board for Mission Work Among the Colored People, on running accidentally across the book, sent two of its members to look me up. It bought a total of thirty- Colorful News Movies (Continued from Page 1.) pamphlet shows that the better thinking whites of Mississippi are determined and have set their minds and souls to the task of ridding the State of one of its greatest manaces. Mississippiians are now on the right track toward civil, social, economic and religious development. They are urged to keep up the good work until the State is entirely rid of lynching and mob violence. RECENT increased activity among various groups and clubs composed of American whites to foster, nurture and spread the seed of RACE HATRED — resulting frequently in race clashes — is doubtless based on the spirit of innate ENVY. When one observes the economic and educational progress Negroes in this country have made since emancipation, it is easy to see why certain groups of ignorant and shiftless whites, whose opportunities (based on color) are practically unlimited in comparison with those of Negroes, would become envious when they see Negroescircumscribed as they outstrip most of these whites along educational and economic lines. It is then that these whites are impelled to advocate Nordic "supramacy," "racial purity," "pass miscogenation laws," grandfather clauses, deny the Negro the right of suffrage and resort to all sorts of subterfuges to further intimidate the American Negro and hold him in subjection. In the face of all these obstacles the Negro is making progress. Thus, the renewed efforts to repel the onward march in progressional development could grow out of nothing else save wild-eyed civy. Vaunted white "supramacy" manifests itself frequently in the --- Envy seven books, which were sent to Catholic educators in different parts of the country. Later the Board sent me a check for $200 as a present, and caused the book to be used as a text-book in a leading Catholic college. This action was purely in the interest of the Negro, as I am not a Catholic nor has the book any pro-Catholic propaganda. "From Superman to Man" has also found its way into educational institutions like Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes, Fordham and Columbia Universities. These are some of the reasons why it should be read. "From Superman to Man" will make a fine Christmas present. It may be had at the Amsterdam News for a dollar and a half, finely bound. Witter Bynner Prize Won by Countee Cullen Countee P. Cullen, poet, has won the Witter Bynner undergraduate poetry prize for 1925. The contest was open to all college students in the country. This year's winner had won second honors in the Witter Bynner contest for 1924 and 1924. Poems were submitted from students of the University of Chicago. Cornell University, Mount Hollygoe College, University of Michigan, Harvard University, and many other institutions. The judges were Witter Bynner, donor of the prize, George Sterling, and Sarah Tenside. Mr. Cullen has just published his first volume of poems entitled "Color." He is a student in the English department of the Graduate School of Harvard University. DARROW APOLOGIZES FOR BEING "NORDIC Clarence Darrow appointed for being a Nordic in speaking Saturday night before the Jewish Center, in Eastern parkway, Brooklyn. Darrow, speaking on "The Freedom of Education," discussed the Scopes evolution trial in Dayton, Tenn., and told of "a singular aggregation of people belonging to the Nordic race—99 per cent pure." I should say poor. "Those Tennesseeans are fundamentalists for the most part," he continued. "Some told that they might mean they form of mob violence in various communities whoever an ambitions Negro endeavors to better his living conditions and home-life surroundings. Whenever a Negro possesses sufficient manhood and courage and moves into better developed se-called white neighborhoods of any city to avoid rearing his children in sections where he is compelled to live alongside vice dens, and where untoward influences abound, where the denizens of the underworld are his neighbors, he is looked upon by the whites of the new neighborhood as an "uppish" n—r who wants to be white and get away from his people. Immediately efforts are made to restrain him from moving into the so-called white neighborhood. When he is brave enough to move in, then the gang of whites form mobs, attack his home, destroy his property and often take his life in their effort to force him to move back among the denizens of the underworld. These acts of violence against ambitious Negroes are unquestionably based upon the innate spirit of envy, so manifestly prevalent in the large class of ignorant and shillless whites. Their ignorance, bigotry and intolerance constantly gnaw at their very heart strings. It is this class of envious whites that constantly endeavors to place obstacles in the path of the American Negro. The black man's salvation lies in a renewed determination to make of himself the ideal American citizen. Own and maintain the best home he can possibly afford; give his children the best education he can; let no man be more thrifty than he; more courageous, more religious, better qualified, more industrious, more patriotic or more law abiding than he. As sure as there is a God in Heaven the obstacles that linger, lazy, shiffless, envious whites place in his pathway will vanish as the morning dew before the bright sun on a clear day. The Virgin Islands THERE is much ado about the Virgin Islands, for- are narrow and ignorant. I can't discuss that. The fundemalists believe that morning can be taught from books and, therefore, you can't teach evolution. Yet the people of Tennessee preach from a book: that was written when the earth was supposed to be flat. "Science stands by it self, by what it has accomplished. It does not need the support of books." Renew Fight for Rights in 1926 BOSTON, Mass., Dec. 14. The National Equal Rights League, from its national headquarters in Cornhill, Boston, next door to where Gerrison published his "Liberator" issues a call to all colored citizens in every community in the United States to severally band themselves together to start now a special racial movement to secure rights in 1926, which is the sesquicentennial year of the Declaration of Independence. The League argues the race to show the country and the world an ability to co-operate, stand together, make intelligent demand, resist dentals with spirit and courage, and campaign for the protection which every other race of Americans enjoy, formidably on its own moral, mental and financial resources at 150 years of an American Independence which it helped win, and 20 years after slavery was wiped from the statute books of the nation. A nation-wide beginning of a six months' special censure is recommended for the first day of 1926 as the 150th anniversary year, by union after midnight or after-watchmeeting mass meetings for demand of the rights of the Declaration of Independence. If not feasible, every community is asked to hold such a meeting New Year's day or evening; they to organize and prepare for a steady campaign, calling upon white America not to celebrate July 4 without having ceased its violation of the Declaration with regard to the ever loyal colored citizens. DETT DECLINES TO ACCEPT DISTRICT POST HAMPTON, Va.—Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett, director of music at Hampton Institute, will not give up his work there to accept the position of director of music in the Washington public schools. Tender of the post in Washington was made by Assistant Supervisor at Garnet C. W. Wilson some time ago, and it was understood that Dr. Dett had accepted. zenship Rumors of legislation have brought forth "pros" and "cons" as to a number of plans, running from annexation to Porto Rico to a distinctly sole and separate government to be run by zeaious statesmen, both native and American. Members of the Colonial Council, the native Virgin Islands legislative body, are already here, pressing for a national plan to promote legislation by Congress, following the death of the McLean bill last year. In the meantime, a currency bill has been introduced by Senator Cummins of Iowa, which would change to U. S. standards the Danish monetary system now in effect on the islands. Economically, the islands are in bad shape. Nothing has been evolved to take the place of the bay rum industry, now dead under the National Prohibition Act. For this reason employment is at a low ebb, with low wages and much surplus labor. It appears that unrest has pervaded the islands over alleged miscance on the part of some of the administratives of Government, and that protest after protest is being sent forward to official Washington, with concurrent requests for relief, by legislation or otherwise. Precedents for self government are, of course, much varied, due to the peculiar circumstances which have surrounded each particular case. The fact remains, however, that the Virgin Islands, having become an integral part of the U.S. A., are entitled to the advantages, along with the disadvantages, if any, which go with the new order of things. They are entitled to develop under American Government, and they are entitled to all the considerations which America preaches and practices within her own native borders. If under present circumstances, the Virgin Islands are being denied or neglected, in an lofa, as to any of those things evolving from the spirit of 1776 then it is the manifest duty of the U.S. Government to enforce its remedies, if necessary, to that civil and legislative justice done to its wards across the sea. Surely President Coolidge meant The Peril of Venereal Disease FROM time immemorial venereal diseases have been prevalent. Human passion is in constant conflict with the will, and in most cases passion and sex desire overcome one's better self. It is therefore necessary to have the knowledge of certain ill effects which result when we allow passion to master our will. There are certain forms of venereal diseases which are local, in which the venereal poison or germ does not enter the blood. The inflammation in this form is noticed at some point on the skin. nothing less than this in his first message to the Sixty-ninth Congress. There is another form in which the poison enters the body. Thus the poison is present but is not noticeable. The person so affected goes Building Memorials DESPITE the myriads of monuments already erected in the South in memory of General Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Jeff Davis and a host of other heroes, whose names are dear to Dixie, there's a veritable frenzy "down home" just now to memorialize — and then memorialize some more—in honor of departed celebrities and erstwhile sacred spots. Committee after committee is now in formation, and, aside from Stone Mountain, the Merrimac, Governor Oglethorpe and Ben Tillman, everything and everybody of historical worth in preserving the traditions and customs of Dixieland are to be done over in bronze or marble. In this connection it occurred to us the other night "while listening in" to a burst of music radiated from Little Old New York, that the south might not be unwilling to accept an humble suggestion from us, concerning the noble patriotism which prompts the building of memorials. The occasion was the singing by a pupil of Jean de Reske of that schilling southern melody, "Carry Me Back to Ole Virginity." As the last burst of song subsided and the echo of the golden tenor's voice, filled with sweet pathos, was followed first by a full and then by vibrant appliance over the fond memories of "Ole Virginity," we could not help but aliently pray, since the South is so ardently engaged in embalming in bronze and marble those things so dear to its heart, that it might also erect a monument to the memory of James Blind, the Negro composer who wrote dear "Ole Virginity"; for he, too, was a patriotic preserver of the sacred memories of the Southland, even if he couldn't get very much adjunct freedom in the Old Dominion State and its sovereign sisters of the "out." NEW WASHINGTON WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 14. The new John E. Cooke School on O street between Fourth and Fifth streets, which has been virtually completed, was inspected Thursday by the board of Education and Dr. Frank W.

ROBINSON. There is another form in which the poison enters the body. Thus the poison is present but is not noticeable. The person so affected goes on, not knowing the danger which lurks in his system. This form of venereal disease is known as syphilis. It is the scourge of modern civilization. The poison remains in the blood five, ten, fifteen or twenty years before it begins to manifest itself in certain symptoms, such as falling hair, ulcers, chronic tonsillitis, chronic dyspepsia with liver inflammation, bone inflammation, neuritis, paralysis, and insanity. In fact, the germ of syphilis may invade any tissue producing inflammation of that organ. The sad thing about this disease is the fact of its presence in the blood, without it giving any symptoms in the years, and then at some time it breaks out with the fury of a volcano. This disease of syphilis is transferable from one person to another. Many an innocent wife has been infected by her husband, the germ of syphilis is unknowingly in his blood, and thus he gives the disease to the one whom he has promised to protect and cherish. When the wife becomes infected with this malady, the germ enters the blood of the future children born to her. Thus the poison enters into the social fabric of our home life. Doctors are forever on the lookout for this disease; and thus a Wasserman Blood Test is frequently taken by physicians of the blood stream of that patient; in no other way can you be sure of the absence or presence of this disease. Young men should be warned by their fathers during the years of their early manhood of the ill effects of this social malady. Mothers should instruct their daughters as they begin to bloom into womanhood of the dangers of this disease. Sex instruction by parents surely can prevent many a pitfall. Illusion, science, and the absolute knowledge of the danger of this disease are the only means to assist the will in its conflict with passion. Italy Frees All Slaves ROME, Dec. 12.—Slavery has disappeared in all Italian African colonies. The Italian Anti-Slavery Society makes this announcement and adds that 2,500 slaves have been liberated in the last few years. Tripolitania and Cyrenaica are entirely free from slavery, owing to the iron vigilance exercised by the Italian authorities on land and sea. In Krythen the last slaves were liberated in 1908, while in Somaliland not only has slavery disappeared but even domestic servitude is prohibited.
