COLORGRAMS. Art Conquers Segregation THE tempest in the teapot of Art simmered down to serene tranquillity in Washington last week when patrons, white and colored, settled down, elbow to elbow, in the Washington Auditorium, and, minus any evidence of segregation, enrapturedly listened to the wonder tones of song which burst forth from the throat of Roland Hayes, the golden-voiced tenor of black hue, but whose tonal charms easily rank with those of John McCormack and Lambert Murphy. To face honest Negro opinion, however, it may not be amiss to tabulate the views of a few of those who did not wholly ascribe to the hue and cry of segregation which belligerent protestants floridly aimed at the managers of the Washington Auditorium, ill-famed among colored folks because of the segregation schemes which wrecked the International Musicale last spring. One philosopher said: "Inasmuch as Hayes ranks in the world of musical art along with Kreisler, Hoffmann, Anna Case and Elman, and since colored people are willing to be segregated to hear those great world artists, I don't see why the color question should be so accented when our own Hayes, fostered by the same promoters, comes to Washington to bring his version of art. If they protest segregation now, then they should protest it when Padorewski comes to town." Another conservative critic said: "The loudest hue and cry in this Hayes advent is being made by those who are Jim Crow school teachers in a segregated school system. If, as they insist, Hayes should cancel his engagement and obliterate his financial returns because of segregation, then some of those protestants should forthwith blue pencil their names and salaries from the payroll of the segregated school system whose emoluments they gladomely enjoy." All's well, however, that ends well; and the great tenor sang his program to a mixed audience whose individuals courteously exchanged opera glasses, joined sentiments in applause, and spanned two hours with Art, minus any riotous insults, or disorder. Art held full sway, and self, at least, was laid on the table as white and black side by side, necledum the race's greatest contribution to field heroes "cornered" by the Anglo-Saxons and Germans. The treat was sublime; the spectacle was inspiring; and, lest we forget, the protestants had no need to voice their protest. For two hours Roland Hayes made Christians of everybody, and that's something that happens once in a lifetime. Senator Caraway's Bill SENATOR CARAWAY. the ardent Arkansas Democrat, has again breathed the breath of life into the ashes of Rome by introducing into the U. S. Senate a bill to prohibit intermarriage between whites and blacks within the District of Columbia, and the residence in the Nation's Capital of such persons married in other states or territories, which do not ban such marital ventures. The bill provides heavy penalties for such infraction of racial admixtures, and is the federal counterpart of similar statutes upon the books of Senator Caraway's state, along with the remaining line-up of the Solid South. There is nothing new in the spectacle of the Caraway measure; nor is it any wonder that any of the South's legislative ambassadors should deem it to be their public duty to strive for mythical racial purity through a law with teeth in it. Fear is the indirect cause of all legislation; and where a people have demonstrated, as they have in the South, that golden sunshine is the only persuasive force which will keep them in their own back yard, then, of course, racial bur- (Continued on Page 12.)

TO "BREAK THE BONDS" Patronize Only Stores Employing Negroes ROLAND HAYES AND GUESTS DENIED ADMISSION TO THEATRE FIREMAN AND TWO OTHERS ON CRACK FLORIDA TRAIN KILLED W. C. Durant, of Durant Motors, Escapes Death When Engine Plows Into His Private Car PALM BEACH, Fl. Lap. 11. — Two crack railroad trains of the Florida East Coast Railroad were in collision at Frontenac. Forty miles north of here, early yesterday morning, and in the wreck the fireman on one of the trains, a chef and a steward were killed and thirty persons injured. W. C. Durant, of Durant Motors, was a passenger on the train, but escaped serious injury. The chef and steward in Mr. Durant's private car. Parion, attached to the rear of the Royal Polnician, train 56, were killed when the engine of train 56, the West Indian Limited, plowed into it. The fireman killed was on No. 56. The Royal Polnician, which left Palm Beach at 2:00 P.M. Saturday, was held up because of traffic congestion at Frontenac, near the end of the double-tracked portion of the line, to permit several southbound trains to pass. The flagman of the Royal Poilchann had been stationed some distance in the rear of the train while it waited, but when the clear signal was given he was called in. He had just reached his train, which was preparing to move off, when the West Indian Limited, which had left Palm Beach at 5:40 A.M., raced around a curve a few hundred feet away. The engineer of the West Indian Limited exploded the other train, but it was too late. The brakes had barely been applied when the big engine of the West Indian crashed into the Durant private car, telescoping it and two Pullmans ahead. Most of the injured persons were in the Pullman immediately in front of the Durant car. None of the cars of the West Indian Limited was derailed and, while many passengers aboard it were shaken up, none was seriously injured. Rescue squads were hastily organized from among the passengers and train crews and these removed the injured. A special train made up of two Pullmans and an engine was rushed to St. Augustine with the more seriously injured and others were treated by private physicians here and at Titusville. A special train was immediately made up for the Durant party and it was routed to run straight through to New York via the Atlantic Coast Line. HELD IN BAIL FOR AUTO DEATH Henry D. West of 122 West 130th street, was held in $2,500 bail Thursday in connection with the death of Mrs. Elsie Battles, age 40, of 307 West 120th street, who was killed last Monday week when West's automobile struck her.

His active employment was continuous until he yeared on the retired list in 1920, except for a short term affair as an enlisted man in the United States Navy, in the expiration of which he returned to the Star. 16-Year-Old Boy Held for Burglary Magistrate Vitale deplored the holding of a 16-year-old boy in jail for three days Monday morning, when Edward Gambona, 15 West 143d street, was arraigned before him on a charge of burglary. The youth is said to have been acting in concert with John Mondon, 14 years of age, 297 West 142d street, and broke into a confessionary at 2493 Seventh avenue. Mondon was arraigned in the Children's Court on Monday. Gambona was held until some disposition had been made in the Mondon case. Gambon declared that the didn't even know what he had been arrested for and that he had not seen Mondon for nearly a week before he was charged with the burglary. Mondon told the police that the youth helped him to break into the store, according to the police. Relatives Sought When Jailed Man Dies PITTSBURGH, Pa., Jan. 11.—Police and officials of the coroner's office were searching last Thursday night for the relatives of a man who died In the Allegheny General Hospital at 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon, a short time after he had been found unconscious in a cell in the Northside police station.

THE NEW YORK "If We Had You Down South," She Tells Him, "We'd Teach You Democracy" Mrs. Robert Wylie Lyle, founder and president of the American Society of Reconstruction, added a touch of excitement to a luncheon given Sunday by seven organizations at the Hotel Astor to protest against the proposed alien registration law when she rebuked Walter Lippmann and Louis Marshall for attacking the proposed measure and "speaking contemptuously of the Nordics." The remarks of Mrs. Lyle were not in the nature of an interruption. She waited until Sherwood Eddy, presiding; Mr. Lippmann, Mr. Marshall and the Rev. Charles K. Gilbert had finished speaking and the meeting had adopted a resolution condemning the proposed legislation. As the meeting was about to adjourn she heaped to her feet, vehemently announcing that she was one of the "despised Nordies," and declared that many of her hearers could not truthfully say the same. "Mr. Lippmann," she shouted above the hissing of those who apparently cared nothing for the honor of the Nordics. "I have listened to more contempt from you today than I ever heard from anyone before. I believe in being my brother's keeper, but if you bring too many foreign brothers over here you won't be able to furnish them with shoes!" Turning to Mr. Marshall, whose White Mate on Garvey Ship Accused The former chief mate on the General George Goethals stewardship was arraigned in the Jefferson Market Court before Magistrate Jean Norris, Monday, on a charge of selling two coils of rope valued at $20, belonging to the company. The stewardship is owned by Garvey's Black Cross Navigation and Trading Co. The accused man, John M. Garrett, was given a summons to appear in court by C. V. Briggs, secretary and vice-president of the Overseen Navigation Corporation, operating agents for the Black Cross ship. Garrett was held by Magistrate Norris for a further hearing Thursday. A probation officer was ordered by the court to investigate the accused man's record.

P.)—A case involving the civil rights of an editor in the Virgin Islands was argued today before the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. It was an appeal taken by Rothschild Franks, editor of The Emancipator, published on the Island of St. Thomas, from a sentence of 60 days in jail and a $100 fine imposed by Rour Admiral George Washington Williams. Francis was sentenced for an alleged criminal libel against a policeman. He demanded a jury trial, but this was refused by Admiral Williams, who tried the defendant himself, found him guilty and passed sentence. Later Francis published an editorial criticizing the naval officer and declaring that he had been "railroaded solely because of racial and political prejudices." Charles H. Gibson, Government attorney on the island, came to this city to protest against any interference by the Court of Appeals with Rear Admiral Williams's ruling. The court took case under advisement. Tenants Have Landlord Held Failed to Provide Heat and Hot Water on Coldest Days On days when the temperature was thirty-two degrees above zero, twenty-two tenants in the apartment building at No. 864 Lenox avenue were without steam heat and hot water and this condition has prevailed over five weeks, according to tenants who made a complaint against Gilbert Martin, the white agent of 915 W. 143d street, in the Washington Heights Court, Monday morning. Martin was held in $500 bail by Magistrate Vitale for a further hearing next week. From a report made by a health officer following an investigation of the premises it was learned that the boiler was inadequate to supply sufficient amount of hot water for the building. On measuring the temperature in several of the apartments the officer said that the temperature was the same inside as it was outside. Some of the tenants said that they had asked the agent each week to furnish them with heat and hot water and that on each occasion he had given them some excuse. The tenants who made the complaint included Mrs. Ula Mason, Albert Scott, E. Benjamin and Alberra Rose. "Neglected Truth" Creating Sensation "The Neglected Truth," an article appearing in the current issue of the Messenger magazine, is creating quite a sensation throughout the country because the charges, ranging from blackmail to murder, contained in it against Joseph D.

Clark, executive secretary of the Pittsburgh Urban League.

Mr. Hayes said that he was informed prior to going to the Aldine that no discrimination was shown there and he need have no fear. "Imagine my surprise and embarrassment when the lady ticket seller informed us that they did not sell tickets to Negroes," Mr. Hayes declared. "We were certainly neat in appearance and portrayed a genteel demeanor as well as spoke clear cut English," he said. The party asked for the manager of the theatre and was informed that he was out of the city.

Mrs. Selena Branham, out of the church, just before the opening of the Sunday morning services. The officers did not obey the shepherd of the flock. Rev. Byrd then disrobed, put on his hat and coat, and went into the street and obtained a policeman, and then ordered him to take Miss Branham out of the choir, from which he had previously barred her, and then told the officer to also put her mother out. The officer hesitated, not knowing whether or not he was within his rights. By being informed through the pastor's legal adviser that the officer had the authority to act, he courteously asked them to leave the church. Mrs. Branham, a former member of the church for many years, together with her daughter have been experiencing some difficulties with Rev. Byrd, it is said, since the coming of the new cholmaster.

C. last Saturday night. For a pair of heavy lads they waged a battle that would have done lighter men credit. What's the Matter With Giving Hall a Chance? This Colored Boy Has Been Making Good Right Along and We All Want to Know For the past year we have been reading about Benny Hall, and about nine times out of ten this same Hall has been on the winning end of his fighting; so much so the white papers have been devoting a great deal of space to the activities of this boy. The news got out that we wanted to see Hall in action and on Monday night Benny blew in to say that he has always been ready to meet the beat in the game at the bantam limit or heavy fly. Hall has the goods. We need to see some new talent at the Commonwealth and we rise to ask Eddie McMahon of the Commonwealth if we cannot be given the opportunity to see Hall in action. We also put the same request to the Manhattan Sport Club which is on record as being willing to give our good colored boys a chance. Here's the first one that we are going to the bat for and as we know the fans would be satisfied, we do not hesitate to bring flall forward and ask a hearing for him. How now, matchmakers? Sailor Darden and Homer Robinson at Pioneer So much interest is being manifested in the coming bout between Phil McGraw of Detroit and Basil Galliano of New Orleans, which will feature the Pioneer Club's show on Tuesday night, Jan. 19, that Lew Raymond, matchmaking director, intends to appeal to the Boxing Commission for permission to have an extra section of seats installed at both ends of the house so as to accommodate the overcrowd which is expected to witness the fight. In the semi-final of six rounds George Courtney, Oklahoma cowboy and protege of Paddy Mullins, who scored two knockouts at this club, will engage Eddie McMullin, Scratchman and cousin of Tommy Milligan, who will be making his debut here.

One Up Lawson, with Neuman's unanticipated large paunch as his target, frequently caught Ray below the belt anintentionally and was booed for in the customers. Neuman proved to be tougher than Lawson had expected, and at times had Bob backing away from his advances. Lawson, holding Neuman even all the way, lost the fight when he slowed up at the end. The Ohloan cut Neuman's left gore on a blow when they came out of a chin in the second frame, and the optic bled profusely for the rest of the cauto. So hard were they fighting that Referee Dorman fell to the floor in his effort to pull them apart in the seventh round, giving the spectators a good laugh, naturally enough. Neuman weighed 1883, Lawson, 182. in the semi-final ten spot, Irwin Bige, Leo P. Flynn's Omaha transportation, fought a hurricane draw with Barney Shaw, the rugged West Side. Both men were tough and each was anxious to put the other to sleep, but slugged away at each other without even putting one of the other down. In the opening four-rounder, Tommy Gervel, 129, West Side, stepped through the distance to a good draw with Al Zoll, 121g, of Harlem, and the crowd felt compensated for the poor exhibition Metro put up when George Forbes, 130g, colored, of Harlem, fought a sizzling draw with Billy Wiley, 131, East Side, in an emergency four-rounder. While Dorman was the third man in the ring, Ban Arkinson and George Schwegel were judging the bouts from the ringside, and Eddie Munson was clicking off the minutes. Another Good Commonwealth Card. Eddie McMahon, matchmaker for the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem, announced last night that he had completed the card for the boxing show at his club next Saturday night. In the star bout of ten rounds Ted Merchant of England, who defeated K. O. Chaney, Sid Barbarian and Benny Valger, will meet Billy White of Jersey City, the lad who has won his last twoights by knockouts. Sid Burt and Irwin Bige, the Pacific Coast star, will meet in another ten-rounder, and the first ten session bout of the night will bring together Willie Makel and Tommy Gervel. George Porbes and Willie Wiley open the program in a four round contest. LAWSON AND NEUMAN IN A DRAW Rely vs. Vidabeck at Man.

Sailor Darden, the colored star and Homer Robinson, also colored, will meet in another sixer. Colored Fighters to Again Get Chance at the Manhattan Casino Sport Club Alex Rely, South American Light Heavyweight, Topping Card Against Billy Vidabeck From New Jersey in One of Three Star Tens This Wednesday Night. The Manhattan S. C., located right opposite the Polo Grounds, will make another attempt to put boxing across in that locality. Door programs and bad weather have made the place a sort of a hoodoo to promoters, but the new organization, headed by Ben Embinder, promises that the bouts will be up to snuff and the weather fair. The initial bill will find Billy Vidabeck, the New Jersey heavyweight, opposed to Alex Rely of Peru in a ten-frame quarrel. Irving Shapiro and Vincent Sanchez will mix it in a second ten, and in the third ten-session rumpus Milton Weiss and Mike Reilly will not make love. The Peruvian boxer, Alex Relf, "The Peruvian Brown Panther." light-heavyweight champion of South America and heavyweight champion of Peru, recently arrived in New York at the Invitation of Tex Rickard to make his debut in this country, which will lead to a battle with the world's light- heavyweight champion and leading heavyweights. Alex Rely is destined to become one of the greatest crowd pleasers to perform inside the ropos because of his style milling. He is a "Bronze Hermeses" in appearance, who is as tough as hickory, aggressive as a bulldog and hits like a trin-hammer with either hand. Rely relies on both hands, is very brave and can stand punishment. He masters perfectly short blows which are his specialty, especially right hooks to the plexus and jaw and a very fast cork-screw blow. He employs often his left hand particularly exchanging blows. In the five years he has been boxing he has engaged in S4 contests, 24 of which were won by the knockout route. Romera Rely, who is doing exceptionally well in this country, was knocked out on two occasions in the first round. Rely and King Solomon fought the most hectic 15 rounds encounter witnessed in a South American ring. There is no question that Rely, who has the color and showmanship of his fellow countryman Louis Firpo, will become one of the greatest flastic attractions in short order. Rely, by the way, challenged Louis Firpo on three different occasions to determine the heavyweight championship of Latin America, but was not accorded the opportunity. He hopes to be more successful in this country and to get a chance at the light-heavyweight championship, and in the meantime he is ready to meet any man picked for him by the boxing promoters of this country. The re-opening of the Manhattan Sport Club with the present manager gives us every reason to look forward for another opportunity for the colored mitt pushers who have been making good but who can only entertain hopes for bouts at the Commonwealth. DOCTORS CAMPBELL & BROOKS Surgeon Dentists 2138 Seventh Ave. Corner 127th St. N. Y. City Morningale 1450 Eric Dawkins in Brilliant Showing at Paterson, N. J., Last Saturday Afternoon De Hart Hubbard Came Within One-Fifth of a Second of Equalling Record Hung Up by Leon Murchison PATERSON, N. J., Jan. 11. -De Hart Hubbard, former Michigan star of the cinder path and field, who captured the broad jump for the United States at the last Olympic games, came within a fifth of a second of equaling Loren Murchison's world's record of 62-5 seconds for sixty yards in the special race which featured the meet of the Paterson Y. M. H. A., held in the City Armory here Saturday night. Hubbard's feat was the more remarkable because he suffered the ill-luck of getting off to a poor start and did not reach the maximum of his powerful thumping stride until ten yards of the race had been run. A crowd of 5,000 saw Hubbard's unsuccessful onslaught on Murk chilson's mark, the high light in the first big meet of the indoor track season in the metropolitan district. Hubbard, who ran unattached, sped across the finish line a yard and a half in the van of Eric Dawkins, also competing unattached, while Louis Clark of the Newark A. C., former sprint star at Johns Hopkins, was third, half a yard in the rear of Dawkins. Chet Bowman, former sensational short-distance man at Syracuse, seemed to hack a good deal of his old-time vim and dash, and the best he could do was fourth. Goodwin Smashes Record. The Philip Diamond special mille race, another attraction on the night's card, developed into a run- away affair for Willie Goodwin, crack New York NY. Miller, who smashed the mile armory record, held by himself, clipping a full second from the old mark. Goodwin's time, that night was 4:21; after the race Philip Diamond, who is Presi- dent of the local Y. M. H. A., pres- ented Goodwin with a cup trophy. Salem-Crescent to Be Represented in Tourney The early entries to be received for the Crescent A.

Monmouth Elks Defeat Crack Elizabethans 28=13 Monmouth Elks triumphed over the Arlington "S." from Elizabeth. N. J., on the Asbury Park Court, December 36. At no time did the Elizabeth boys gain the lead. The first half was full of thrills, going down 14-11 in the Elks' favor. In the second half Arlington played a follow game: that is, following Aubury Elks. The game ended 26-13 in Elks' favor. The Elks played a wonderful floor game, and this was the cause of the Arlington's downfall. We will play anywhere within 300 miles for game. Write J. R. Hearie. 39 Atkins avenue, Asbury Park, N. J. Buddy Saunders Wins Verdict Over Tommy Jordon Colored Welter Whips White Boy Who Had Been Slated to Meet Kid Albert at the Commonwealth A few nights before he was slated to appear at the Commonwealth Sport Club in an encounter with Kid Alberts, Irish Tommy Jordon ran into bad luck when he was paired with Buddy Saunders, another colored welter of some merit, at the Laurel Gardens Sporting Club, in Newark, N. J. Saunders, crying for a chance to show around here, took advantage of the opportunity and belted Jordon with an effective left jab that gave Tommy no chance whatsoever to get in any work on his own account. Truth to tell. Buddy kept the white boy from getting started, although he tried valiantly "all night long." Saunders wetched 149 pounds, while Jordon tipped the beam at 147. Buddy has some good rights promised him in the near future and will most likely get a shot at either the Commonwealth or Manhattan Sport Club in the near future. Armory Five Stops Anti Air Men in First Game The Armory Big Five representing the 369th Infantry Regiment had a walkover in their first game in the New York National Tournament, last Saturday night, when they trounced the 212th Anti-Aircraft Regiment to a tune of 63-20. The Aircraft outfit started, as though they were going to make all kinds of trouble for the Harlem representatives, but gradually fell behind as the first half grew older. The first half ended with the score 20-11, still the 369ths were uneasy, for there was a possibility of the visitors coming from behind. The entrance of "Tony" Kicks in the game put plenty of life in the home boys' lineup and with that went the hopes of the 212th. The 368th by virtue of Saturday night's win move into the second round of the tournament, and will travel to Brooklyn, Saturday night, Jan. 16, where they meet the 101st Cavalry. The 369th team scored as follows: field goals, Gaynor, 9; Garcia, 9; Rucker, 8; Hicks, 2; James, 1; Curtis, 1; foul goals, James, 1; Anderson, 1; Gaynor, 1. PRIVATE TUTOR Consideration to Groups.

Prepares for Another Busy Week Another busy week looms up for the Y. M. D. basketball team of the West 135th Street Branch Young Men's Christian Association, for on Friday evening, January 15, they meet their old rival St. C. in a return game at the Parish House. Keen interest centers around this contest, as the Y. M. D. won the decision in the first match and it is felt by many that St. C. is going to reverse the order on Friday night. Saturday evening, January 16, will find the strong Monchair, N. J., Young Men's Christian Association basketball team as the opponents of the home team. This combination comes to N. Y. with fire in their eyes, determined to wipe out the victory scored by the local boys some time ago in N. J. The Alpha Phil Alpha Fraternity will clash with the Y. M. D. on Tuesday evening January 19, in a benefit game for the creation of a Conference Fund to be used in helping to send representatives from the W. 155th Street Branch to the Older Boys' Conference held every Thanksgiving week-end.

Jamaica Painter Says He Saw "A Dark Man Coming With a Bundle" --- And a White Man Escorting His Perfectly Good Overcoat, Despite the Extreme Cold Weather Robert Lichter of Richmond Hill is a painter, but his testimony in the Queens Court of Special Sessions on Friday last indicates that he has all the instincts of a detective. Lichter was largely responsible for the arrest and conviction of two men on a charge of petty larceny. Philip Bauer, 42, of 45 Hearn avenue, Jamaica, and Robert Whittington 45, colored, of 60 Elm street, Jamaica, were charged with having stolen a half dozen pairs of trousers and an overcoat from the shop of Iadore Knutsky at 104 Rockaway road, Jamaica, on November 11, while Knutsky was out and only his 5 year old son was in the shop. Lichter testified that just before noon on November 12 he was painting the outside of a house in Liberty avenue, Jamaica, when he saw a colored man coming up the street. There was a bulge under his overcoat and the legs of some troUSER were hanging out beneath. Lichter said he stopped the man and asked him, where he got the troUSER and the man asked him and then went on his way. Just behind him, came a white man carrying an overcoat, according to Lichter. Lichter said he was sure there was something wrong so he waited until the pair were about fifty feet ahead of him and then he followed them. He said that twice they turned corners and finally came to the house, 50 film street. The colored man went inside and the white man threw the overcoat in the hallway and drove off in an automobile. Lichter said he called a policeman and returned to the film street house. He said they found the crosses and overcoat and after a chase caught the colored man, who had run away when they entered the house. He said that just as he caught the colored man detective Furter of the Jamaica predicts drove up in a department automobile and took charge. Burger said he questioned the colored man, who gave his name as Whitington, and then took him to the station house where after some questioning he gave Bauer's name. Bauer was brought to the station house and identified by Drinken and Krautsch was called and identified his goods. Both Bauer and Whitington denied any knowledge of the goods. Bauer teams to the city for training and both he and Whitington said苏伯雷 used Whitington some money and paid him that morning. They had a couple of drinks together and then separated they said. Piercee Nolan, Kelly and Caldwell found both men guilty. Whitington, who on cross examination had admitted he had been in jail several times, both in Philadelphia and here, said he was sentenced to an indeterminate term in the New York Penitentiary. Russell was continued on bail for one week pending investigation and sentence. Benefit Recital to Be Given at Central "Y" Mary Elizabeth Smith, central support by Eriktingen Kehr violinist, and L. H.

Robeson and Brown in Another Recital Sunday In response to public demand, expressed in the overflow crowd at their first concert of the season, James H. Pond announces a second appearance of Paul Robeson, baritone, and Lawrence Brown, composer, at the Selwyn Theatre the night before the first concert of the two, in Town Hall January 4, resulted in one of the largest audiences of the season, with many standees and with hundreds turned away, and proved beyond doubt the immense popularity of Negro music in New York, the world center of music. In their second program Mr. Robeson has arranged to include several Negro melodies before he returns to New York. These are folksongs the actor-singer found in his recent tour of the South, on which he gave especial study to the music of his race. The programs of the two differ from those of others in that they are authentic in every way. Mr. Brown, in arranging the Negro music, has not introduced any foreign elements, but has given it to the world in the way in which it is sung in its original interpretation. The two musicians have performed an amazing performance throughout the city in London, where they recently acceded a triumph. Their concert at the Selwyn Theatre promises to be the most interesting they have ever given. Evening of Music at Ambassador To aid the Negro Art School, Dr Signandu Spaeth讲演 Will Marton Cook and other well-known artists in an evening of music at the Ambassador Theatre Sunday.

The Tikie Jubilee Singers and Alta Tikie Jubilee Singers, were also on the program. Duke Ellington's orchestra furnished a number of selections of jazz. Elkins Ensemble at Town Hall The Elkins Ensemble of forty voices, led by William C. Elkins, began its concert at the Town Hall Saturday evening by singing the Doxology behind closed curtains, as a keynote of the religious character of the "spirituals" which made most of the ensuing program.

Watson, in a recent issue of the Supreme Circle News, published in Albany, Ga., says: Politically, the Negro is not the one on his own he has been slipping backward for the past decade, and it is because he does not interest himself sufficiently to quality and participate in matters political. He has no political program and is never found a unit on any proposition. Yet he believes the Republican party behaves like the Democrats would destroy him, and RESTS HIS CASE THERE." THE ALMAS.

Governor Smith Stressing Housing in Annual Message --- Also Asks Regislature to Rid State of Unlicensed Doctors In his annual message to the Legislature, Governor Smith included indications affecting citizens of Harlem. The Governor offered a solution of the tenement problem and condemned the illegal practice of medicine. A hundred tenement cases were heard in the Seventh District Municipal Court during the past year. Three persons were convicted for the illegal practice of medicine in the Washington Heights Court recently. GOVERNOR'S SPEECH "About 25 years ago the state, by the Tenement House Law, undertook to protect tenement dwellers in two respects: First, as to the construction of new tenements; and, second, as to the care and unceep of existing tenement properties. At the time of the passage of the onerated Tenement House Law, it was believed that normal means of transportation and the construction of bridges over the East River would so distribute the population as to change the character of certain of the old-fashioned neighborhoods of Manhattan Island. "Experience, however, has taught us that you cannot move people by law. If a considerable number of people insist upon living in a given neighborhood, nothing that we do by law will change their ideas, and add to the old of 25 years' same old, disillipated tenements still being used for dwelling purposes. CHILDREN IN DANGER "Children are still being brought up in dark, ill-ventilated, overcrowded, unsafe tenement houses, and those houses are to be found not only in New York City but in all the cities and even in the smaller communities of the state. The social tills and moral dangers consequent upon our neglect of housing have been ably presented by courts dealing with juvenile offenders, by social, church and civil agencies of every kind. "The building of homes has been looked upon as an enterprise conducted like any other business in which the element of specialization provides a long this point of view is maintained it has been proven to be impossible to construct the homes we need or to rebuild the tenement areas whether in New York City or elsewhere, which continue throughout the years to be a menace to the health and morals of the community. "One of the elements that has undoubtedly proved an obstacle to private capital for this class of housing has been the cost of borrowing money and another is the slow and uneven process of providing sufficient land to conduct a profitable building operation on a large scale, and such building operations cannot be profitable except on a large scale. STATE MUST BID "If the State of New York is to maintain its position in the front rank of the progressive commonwealths of the country, after having taken the lead in enacting during the last 20 years progressive legislation along almost every other humane line, we cannot overlook the all important problem of having the state lend its aid to the improvement of the living conditions of its people. Nothing that I can think of will go further to promote the health, comfort and morals of our people than wholesome and sanitary housing. "I have become convinced that if there is to be a satisfactory and reasonably speedy solution of the state must revise its laws to meet the situation. There are two prime essentials to the solution. The first is to provide for the borrowing of money at low rates of interest; the second is the use of the power of condemnation in order that large parcels of land may be acquired at reasonable prices. ILLEGAL PRACTICE OF MEDICINE "I renew the recommendation of a year ago that careful consideration he given to the protection of the people of the state from unlicensed and unqualified persons practicing medicine. The cooperation of the State is an essential factor in the protection of the public health, as well as in the care of the slick. "A very large part of modern public health is urging people to get the advice of their physicians before serious and perhaps incurable conditions have developed. Such efforts are essential to the quality of persons are allowed to sold themselves out as physicians. "The subject is a difficult one, but the State of New York should take the lead in establishing high standards of medical practice and providing a practicable plan for their enforcement. It is a matter of justice to qualified physicians and of protection to the public." CENTRAL WEST SEEKS VOICE IN HOWARD "U" CLEVELAND, Ohio, Jan. 11. Definite support from Howard alumni all over the country backing the candidacy of Dr. Charles H. Garvin for membership on the board of trustees of the university is seen in the result of the vote of the alumni taken in December by the office of the alumni and field trustees. Dr. Garvin is one of the outstanding graduates residing in this section of the country. The vote taken in December for selection of the six nominees who are to be subjected to a further vote scheduled for January 30, 1926, resulted in the nomination of Dr. Garvin and five others, the others being Dr. Sara W. Brown of New York City, Dr. James Carter of Albany,burg, Pa., Reed Geoffrey C. Miller of New York City, Miss Nellie Quander of Washington, D. C., and Attorney Thomas Walker of Washington, D. C. Norman L. McGhee Ends Seven Years as National Secretary DETROIT. Mich.-After seven years of continuous service as National Secretary of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, during which time the fraternity grew from a chapter roll of 15 in 1919 to a present roll of some 60-old chapters, Attorney Norman L. McGhee, formerly of Washington, D. C., but cow of Cleveland, O. at the recent convention held in Detroit, Mich., realliquished the office to J. H. Evans of Atlanta, Ga. The length of his service at McGhee is a national officer sets a new record in Negro college fraternity circles, his seven years being the longest of any present or former fraternity officer. McGHEE'S WORK PRAISED. The important part which Attorney McGhee has played in the affair of Alpha Phil Alpha is attested by the article which appeared last January in the convention issue of The Sphinx, the official organ of the fraternity. It reads as follows: "Brother McGhee begins his seventh year of uninterrupted service as General Secretary of Alpha Phil Alpha. Following the eleventh annual convention in Cleveland, O., December, 1918, he was appointed General Secretary to fill an unexpired term of Brother Numa P. G. Adams, restigned. The office of General Secretary is the most important office in the fraternity and, naturally, it took Brother McGhee a year or so to get his bearing and put machinery in order to handle efficiently the vast amount of work that passes through his office. When he was appointed, he of him, the Columbus convention he was elected by unanimous vote and the seventeenth convention approved his work for another year as a matter of course." Following the close of the 1924 convention held in New York City, Attorney McGhee resigned his position at Howard University where served in the office of Dr. Emmanuel D. Emmanuel, assistant to the Secretary-Treasurer, and took up residence in Cleveland, O. Since his coming to Cleveland, increasing claims upon his time for the practice of law have been made. OTHER OFFICERS ELECTED. Another change in the national administration of the Alpha Phil Alpha was the election of Persival R. Piper of Detroit, Mich., as National Treasurer. This place has been held for five years by Dr. Homer Cooper of Chicago, IL. Other officers elected at Detroit were Raymond W. Cannon, who was re-elected as president; Perron P. Anderson of New York City, vice-president; Charles W. Greene of Atlanta, Ga., as vice-president; S. Mannel of Columbia Q., as vice-president; James W. McGregor of Los Angeles, Calif., as vice-president, and Oscar C. Brown, who was re-elected as Editor of the Sphinx.

Thompson Held Funeral of John W. Thompson Held Up-State Politician Led Frederick Douglas Monument Committee ROCHESTER, N. Y., Jan. 11.—African Zion Methodist Church, in Favor street, was filled last Tuesday afternoon with an audience that said its last tribute of respect to John W. Thompson, who died the Sunday before at his home, No. 257 Caledonia avenue. Not only the funeral, but the committal service, also took place at the church, owing to the fact that the body was taken to Albany for burial there beside the grave of Mr. Thompson's late wife. Rev. R. R. Ball, minister of Memorial Church, and Eureka Lodge of which Mr. Thompson was a past master, conducted the services, Mr. Ball was assisted by Rev. John H. Mason, representative in this section for educational institutions. Men prominent in the city's news and political houses whose beauty floral designs surrounded the casket, but the largest tribute was from Mr. Thompson's own race people who owed him much. He was a disciple of Frederick Douglas, many years his senior, and, like that great leader, Mr. Thompson had an ambition that included his fellow men, "There are many are better fitted to pay him ribute than I, because of your longer acquaintance," Mr. Ball said in his college lecture, "I know him by a year and a half. I console to no man a finer appreciation of his qualities than I had." Mr. Hail said that Mr. Thompson, being merely a man, was not perfect, but that he was a fine type of American and Christian manhood. Mr. Thompson had been the Episcopal Church, he said, and "when he left this holy communion it was not owing to dissatisfaction," but because he wanted to help his people to develop spirituality, and gave of his means, his time and his ability to help the poor, he was in which the funeral was taking place. "I am persuaded that the better a man is the more truly ambitious he is," said Mr. Ball. "The ambitious man in all history was Jesus Christ—how He lived and planned and solved problems! Christ was not the only object of His ambitions. It was true that He looked to the end and endured His sufferings for the joy that was set before Him, but the final goal of that ambition was His follower. "The presence of his congregation today is truly an evidence of Thompson and also of their life of the life of Mr. Thompson deserves a great share of the honor of our having this building today." The choir led in "Rock of Ages" and "He Leadeth Me." The bearers were: Leon J. Du Dolls, John H. Connion, Harry C. Thomas, J. S. Heslop, D. W. Wat- son, and many members of the Euroca Lions Museum.

Brotherhood Flays Stock Offer Says Object of Scheme Is to Divert Attention From Organization In a statement to the press the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Portors has attacked the announcement of the Pullman Company that porters in its employ may purchase stock in the company. The release in part follows: "The porter is given 41 months in which to pay for the stock at the rate of $3.00 a month. The money is taken out or his pay check every pay day. This method of payment alone is an indictment of the low wages the company is paying the porters, for by giving them 41 months to pay for one month's wages, they don't make enough money to pay for it in a shorter period of time and exist, to say nothing about living. "The object of the stock scheme is to direct the attention of the porters from the movement to organize them, to make them think that they are a part of the company, to impress the public with the idea that the company is very much interested in its Negro employees, that they don't need a union of their own to improve their working conditions and to rely upon the company, which they have done for over a half century and are still under-paid and over-worked. "Of course, the one stock which a porter can buy, some can't buy even one, does not give him any voice in the affairs of the company. The 10,000 shares to all of the porters, granting to them purchase them, would not give them any deciding voice in the company. It won't help them to increase their wages by one penny, nor improve the conditions in the company. The big stockholder in the company control it. Even if the porters had the money and desired to purchase the stock, they would not be permitted to buy enough to give them the right to breathe a word as to the management of the company. 'Grinning Negroes Make Bad Leaders' Channing H. Tobias in Pointed Speech in Southern City MEMPHIS, Tenn., Jan. 11.—Before a convention of 7,000 Southern white Methodist young people meeting in the Municipal Auditorium here, Channing H. Tobias of New York, senior colored Y. M. C. a secretary, declared that the Negro who bends and grinds and lies is incapable of revealing the soul of his race and that, regardless of the tone of his grief such a Negro by the daily press, he will never be accepted as a leader. The speaker further said that the time had come for white people to quit thinking of the Negro as a problem and think of him as a contributor to the upbuilding of the nation along all lines. He pointed to the contribution that Dr. Carver of Tuskegee had made to the South through his agricultural experiments and asked why such a man should be considered a problem. Following the address questions were asked from the floor. One questioner wanted to know how white people should address color- ed people. Before Mr. Tobias could reply, a white leader on the platform indicated that he desired to give the answer. His reply was: "Address colored people just as you would white people. Why should you hesitate to say 'Mister' to a colored man? Prejudice accounts for your refusal to do it. The sooner we stop that sort of nonsense the better for us." The address was well received by the convention and every courtesy was shown to the speaker by the leaders. Bishop Ransom Answers Darrow Bishop Ransom Answers Darrow --- PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Jan. 11.—"God has done a thousand times more for the American Negro than he ever did for Daniel; yea, a million times more." Thus spoke Bishop R. C. Ransom, formerly of New York, but now of Nashville. Tenn. in a stirring address to the Elder E. McEntrich, this city, last Tuesday night, under the auspices of the Citizens' and Southern Bank's Thrift Committee, on the subject, "The Way Out for the Negro." Continuing, he said: "My good friend, Mr. Darrow, would not speak as he did if he wore a black skin and if he wore that black skin in the South. There are some things a man cannot learn about this problem, but he must have the importance of a black man. It may be that we need to branch out in other lines, but it is not true that we must desert the God of David. It is not true that the God of David has not helped us and does not help us. God shut the mouths of three lions in the den for Daniel. God has shut a million mouths for the black people. It hatred and murder raped the heart of the South and to run rampant in the south, it occasionally does in a lynching, what would happen to the Negro? Who could protect him; who could keep him from the same fate of the Indian in the faces of the white man? It is God and the fear of God that keeps these jaws locked and keeps reasonable peace in the South today. Take God out of the South and not only from the South but from America, and see how the Negro will fare. Mr. Darrow is wrong about the God of Daniel, and every thought the Negro knows it, and if he were a Negro he would know it. "But what we want to do is to do as Daniel did after God had locked the lions' jaws- go out and The Way Out. "Naturally, the first 'way out' the Negro found was religion. This is the first way out every oppressed people find. And we build our churches, produce our religious leaders, and have wonderful organizations that dot every hill and valley where black people live. The Negro church will forever stand as one of the marvels of race organization. As yet it has not been equalled by the race in any other field. But religious organizations did not bear the same burden as the Civil War our leaders looked to politics as 'the way out,' and filling in behind the Republican Party we plied ourselves vigorously to political activity, and black men sat in the Senate and House of Representatives of the nation and in most of the legislatures of the South. But politics alone was not 'the way out.' Then came the passion for education, and we filled the schools. We graduated from colleges from medical schools and from law schools. Not finding we turned in classical training and yet we have not found the way out." "We are now in the midst of another development. But we must not make the mistake of forsaking the old, tried ground. We do not need less religion, or less politics, or less education. We need more. We need Daniels God, all political organizations, all kinds of companies. But we also need economic education. We must organize our labor; organize our business, organize our money. Economic organization is one of the ways out. This is a field we have not occupied. We want to do in it what we have done in religion. And one of the first things we want to do is to organize banks. We make millions, yea, yeah, but little value to us in advancing our people, because the money is not organized into banks to help our people build homes and business and advance in social life. And there is a great moral side to this. Our education depends upon it. Our women must marry husbands who can support them and their children. This cannot be done without we organize our money and make places for the money coming up, our schools. Negroes need businesses, insurance companies, newspapers, and hundreds of businesses to supply their needs, and that is a way out. "The greatest thing in our way today is not the prejudice of the black man. For no white man's prejudice can keep a Negro from going to a Not A CLASSIFIED AL Is the Key to Everybody's Pocketbook Wilberforge Students Resent Attitude of Chicago Alumni Wilberforge Students Resent Attitude of Chicago Alumni (Preston News Service.) WILBERFORCE, Ohio., Jan. 11. According to a statement of the president of the Wilberforce Forum, composed of college alumni at Wilberforce University are very much aroused over the recent attacks made on the university by certain disgruntled alumni. This particularly applies to an article published in the Chicago Defender of January 2. when a special committee at the Chicago alumni made their desires for a "house cleaning." "To begin with, Miss Barzart and Mr. Hubbard, members of the committee, are not considered as alumni, owing to the fact that they only received their high school training here. In fact, one of them never completed the high school course. As to Messrs. Foster, Crews and Reed, it is a question in our minds as to whether they are in position to criticize the university or any of its policies intelligently. The gentlemen failed to the inevitable go and only one of them has ever graced the campus with his presence since that time. A survey of the subscription list of the campus paper, "The Mirror," fails to reveal any of the gentlemen's names. Therefore we question the authen- gro churb, or putting his money in a Negro bank, or reading a Negro newspaper. There are 12,000,000 Negroes in America. Ten million of them never read a Negro newspaper or put money in Negro newspapers. In the past, the Negro physician or buy from the Negro grocer. Surely the white people's prejudice does not keep them from that. A white man's prejudice may keep you from eating in a white restaurant, but certainly not in a colored eating house. Why, then, has the Negro been so slow to orginate the spirit of slavery in bequeath the spirit of slavery. There still persists in the black man's mind to too large an extent that he is not as good as a white man, that he was made to be a slave, that he can trust a white man but not his own. And that is the spirit we must fight and fight hard. The spirit of slavery keeps us down.

This is not the first attempt of disgruntled alumni to undermine the present administration." it is declared. Continuing the statement says in part: "The type of publicity which these individuals persist in giving the university could not help. In fact, we feel that the function of the alumni is not to be fault finding or destructive in their criticism of the teacher, because they constructive. The student body thinks that the first thing that the alumni could do for Wil伯力force would be to organize itself, then appoint a committee to visit the university and become acquainted with the facts and growth and development of the university. The alumni has been notoriously negligent in this respect. This probably occurred because the fact that the criticism made concerning the lowering of the scholastic standing with the facts concerning the university, and progress that has been made in the past two years as to standardization is remarkable. If the alumni were to do less shouting and more shooting, and incidentally let some of those shots be taken, years and cents, we will have a bigger better and mighter Wil伯力force." president or the Citizens' and Southern Banking Co.

TUSKEGEE, Ala. — The sixty-three chapters of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity concluded on Dec. 31, 1925, one of the most constructive conclaves in the history of the fraternity. Not only were the internal affairs of Omega thoroughly considered and plans for their progressive development outlined, but the fraternity gave sincere thought and attention to matters of vital importance affecting the race in America. The convocation endorsed and pledged the united support of the Omega Psi Phi to the work of the N. A. A. C. P. and donated $200 to that organization. It pledged itself to work for the passage of a law which would make lynching a Federal crime. It protested and urged the President of the United States the abolition of segregation against the Negro in the Federal Civil Service. 2,500, was the scene of a reception and dance tendered the fraternity by the officials of the institute.

Army Orchestra was imported from Fort Denning, Ga., to render the music for this occasion. On Wednesday the fraternity was the guest of the officials of the Veterans' Bureau. It recommends to Congress that effective measures be adopted to restore the suffrage to the Negroes of the South or that the representation of those States in which the Negroes are disfranchised be reduced. It recommended that a conferred effort be put forth urging labor unions to admit Negroes to membership on equal terms with other workmen. The conclave also commended the Medical Officer and his staff in 'Charge of the United States Veterans' Bureau Hospital for the efficient way in which the affairs of that institution are being conducted and recommended that the policy of manning the hospital with an entire Negro staff be continued. The fraternity also endorsed the program of and took out a life membership in the Association for the Study of Negro Life and history. It authorized its committee of the Colonel Charles Young committee to cooperate with the local organizations who have obtained the permission of Mrs. Young in the erection of a sultanium at the grave of this sooth soldier in Arlington cemetery. During the sessions of the conference two inquisitive public meetings were held, the first, in the hall at Tuskegee on Sunday evening, December 27, 1925. Mr. K. R.

A brief response on behalf of the faternity was made by the Grand Basileus, Attorney George L. Vaughn of St. Louis. The Assistant Attorney-General of Massachusetts, Attorney Matthew W. Buholz, a member of Ela Pan Chapter, delivered the main address. He stressed the value of obtaining full knowledge of the accomplishments of the Negro in the past in order to stimulate pride and ambition and achievement in the future, and urged the cooperation of members of all races in order to establish a true democracy and bring to a realization the ideals upon which the American Government was founded. The music for this occasion was rendered by the Institute choir and orchestra and Miss Muriel Battery. The second public ceremony took place at the grave of Bockon T. Washington, Attorney George L. Vaughn delivered a short and appropriate address at the conclusion of which he reverently placed a wreath at the foot of this illustrious leader. SOCIAL EVENTS. It was apparent from the moment that the special Pullman cars bearing the host of official delegates and visitors arrived and were met by the Grand Marshal, John B. Garrott, and practically the entire membership of the Iota Omega Chapter, that the hospitality of Tuskeguei could not be paralleled by that of any previous place where Omega was held its conventions. Tuskegee Institute and many members of the staff and officials of the Veterans' Bureau Hospital received many visitors and their special guests. Many private automobiles were placed at the disposal of the visitors. A large electric sign of welcome with an electric design of the emblem of Omega superimposed upon it flashed its cheerful greetings across Tuskegee's campus.

Downingtown Enrollment Passes Century Mark (Preston News Service.) DOWNINGTOWN, Pa., Jan. 11. With dormitory accommodations for 52 students, the Downingtown Industrial School reopened after the Christmas holidays with an enrollment of 102 boys and girls, the larger majority of whom come from Philadelphia. Because of the overrowed condition of the girls' dormitory, it has been necessary to reject numerous applications from prospective girl students. At present the boys' dormitory also is taxed to its匀 capacity. In 1923-24 the school had a maximum enrollment of 27 students, only 20 of whom came from Pennsylvania. In 1924-25 the number increased to 79, of whom 29 were from this state. After the Christmas holidays last year, the school reopened with 52 students and reached a maximum of 56. The present enrollment, therefore, represents practically a doubling of the enrollment of 1924-25. In order to relieve congestion in the girls' dormitory and to provide space for additional girl students, work is being rashed upon the rebuilding of the old Trades Building destroyed by fire in October, 1924. The present calls for a foundry in the basement and four larger rooms on the first floor. A second floor will be added when funds become available. In order to raise funds to purchase needed equipment, the girls' glee club is giving a series of concerts. Already one has been arranged for January 27, at the Central Presbyterian Church, the largest white church in Coatesville. On January 30 the girls will sing in the Bethel A. M. E.

Speaking seriously, black people are as anxious to preserve themselves as are the whites. The great rank and file of them find no cause for mocking or hating them, and for resisting racial admixtures which take place each decade, particularly in Dixieland. When, however, the law shall have taken away the purge of lawful wedlock it will be hard to tell what will have become of public decency, public policy, and the rights of American citizens to own their own proxatives, especially with regard to persons with whom they decide to live lawfully. The weaker -ace has always suffered, regardless of either common or statutory law. The plan of prohibited intermarriage will never solve the nexus of natural selection; neither will it preserve either the white or the dark races. In a purity any stronger than honor and integrity.

Away with the Caraway Bill! Pass the Anti- Lynching Bill. Dyer-McKinley Anti-Lynching Bill will pass is a burning question. It is said that the Southern Democrats will resurrect their practice of old and filibuster it to death, or use it as a club over the heads of the Republican majority, which has other momentous measures of a national character to push through the present session of Congress. Arguments against the bill will, of course, revert to the time-honored doctrine of States Rights, and the freedom and right of a state to invoke its own procedure to punish the promoters of lynchings. The practical trouble, however, with the Southern States, is that seldom, if ever, are lynchers brought before the bar of justice where the victim is one of color. The unwritten "honor and integrity" of Southern gentlemen stop them from prosecuting any of their number for merely lynching a Negro. Some time or other the question of whether a colored citizen of the United States has any racial rights as a citizen of theocracy or Misteskip, and whether his offenders must face the law in that territory must be settled, and it might well be now as then. The Federal prohibition officers seem perfect freedom in applauding the Volunteerism all over the country. Pallocks, revenue cutters, guns, and other instrumentalities of the Federal law are put into action where a quart of whiskey is concerned; and if the redress of the ruthless purchasers of the life of an American citizen, no matter if in Maine or Misteskip, is not as important as a quart of sixty-proof liquor, well, then, it is time to unlock the door of the parliamentary and give undisguised freedom to all the guests therein abiding. We must watch the anti-lynching bill and see that, for the sake of America, it is passed. We must throw behind its supporters the potential persuasive force of every Nearoy in the country. The disgrace of federal bureaucracy removed from the land of freedom and, even if we can't make the world safe for Democracy, let's make America safe. Surely there's too much Christianity here to continue to permit our country to lag in upholding the doctrine. "Thou Shalt Not Kill." We've been praying for a century or so. Let's now put some practical puff in it by reminding Congress of the power of the ballot. Preaching and Practicing AVETERAN preacher, Rev. W. J. Howard, of Washington, D.

N AUTO LESSON Dale, Reliable School JE, NEAR 59th ST. PLAZA 1730 The procession of nearly 300 automobiles was more than a mile long, and sincere mourners almost fought that, in the hour of death, they might pay their last tribute to the veteran benutzer who loved them and will remember all the years. The secret of such a demonstration was found in the fact that the man had practiced what he preached through a long life of usefulness and service. It is said that no night was too dark for him to heed the call of a parishioner; that he always seemed able to finance some dire need of the starving or the sick. When distress broke out, his flock, to be sensible minister was the first to offer aid and comfort and the last to leave as long as there was service imperformed. From the pulpit the veteran labored, not so long in explaining just why Paul's letter to the Ephesians was written, as he did in admitting his followers to observe the Golden Rule. If a communicant's rent was a little short, Rev. Howard would either help make up the difference, or he probably knew the landlord and could induce him to pay. The same is just as important as the classes; and, as some one has said, God must have loved them because he made so many of them. Rev. Howard's humble but highly serviceable public career of practicing as well as preaching is a splendid example to the sordid world of self that love is service, and that service is the most beautiful, as well as the most profitable, adaptation we can over make of the admonition to love our neighbor as ourselves. Koldfeet WORD comes from gentle New England and likewise from lion-hearted Georgia that Koldfeet have attached themselves to the Klan, causing that august organization to exude the cold sweat of an unnatural death. In New Haven, Conn., it is said that the joining fee has dropped down to ten bucks per head, and that there are not a few "Nutmeg" State deserters who have had quite enough of the malady of Kluxism. Down in dear old Georgia it is said that the Klan has caused such reversion of memories to the days of Governor Oglethorpe that under the new slogan, "It's great to be a Georgian," the Southern view is that the K.K.K. is even too strong for the ex-Oglethorpe territory. If it is true that the Klan has koldfeet and has decided that Americanism is all right the way it is defined by American traditions and the U. S. Constitution, then the Invisible Empire might turn its attention to some constructive work, all the way from interest in Americanism to attendance to enforcement of the State Federal Constitutions according to law, not according to froods. This would be far more Americanlike than the past work of the Simmons aggregation, the feet of which might become warmed by the potential inspiration which has made real one hundred per cent Americans a patriotic Christian people. Colorgrams In Mississippi they're wondering what's the use of the public expenses of trial—that is, if a mob is going to overrule the jury later on. Washington, D.

SERVICE WITH LIBERIA Postmaster Kley announces that, beginning January 15, 1826, the exchange of money orders with Liberia, which was discontinued April 1, 1915, will resume and with those for all other European countries. The orders will be issued on the international form and the amount will be expressed in dollars and cents only. Payment in Liberia will be made in Monrovia, the exchange office of that country. The addition of Liberia to the list of countries to which postal money orders may be sent brings the number of countries with which the United States maintains a direct exchange of money abroad to 11. In addition to these countries there are a number of places and countries with which the United States carries on an indirect exchange of money orders through the intermediary agency of a foreign post office department, so that postal money orders may be purchased in the United States for payment in practically any civilized country in the world.

CHRIST NEVER MARRIED. For that reason we do not know what kind of a wife He would have taken unto Himself if He had married. One thing is certain: If Christ had married His marriage would have created a sensation similar in character to the other two principal events of his life—His birth and death. We do not believe that neither religious barriers nor civil customs would have thwarted His taking unto Himself the woman He loved and who reciprocated that love. WHY then should the marriage of Irving Berlin, a Jew of humble parentage, and Ellin Mackay, a Catholic, be looked upon with so much askance by the religious denominations of the contracting parties and by a large portion of the populace? Why should not interracial marriages, which both church and state seem powerless to prevent, have the blessings of all religious bodies and the general public, regardless of race, or creed, or color? Interracial marriage at its worst is is not near so bad as concubinage. Yet that is exactly what several religious bodies and many states of the nation foster by withholding their sanction and approval. THE MATRIMONIAL SHIP rocks enough nowadays without having anyone stand up in it. Looking Toward 1928 FRIENDS of Governor Smith are still hopeful that he will be the next Democratic Presidential nominee and are taking definite steps toward that end. Mayor Walker's recent march through Georgia, during which he sought to sell New York's Governor to the South, and the more recent utterances of Edward James Woodhouse, in the Independent Magazine, are examples of the quiet campaign being conducted in Smith's behalf. SAVS Mr. Woodhouse: It is not the conclusion of this article that Governor Smith will or will not be nominated for President by the Democratic Party in 1928, but simply that the South is watching him and preparing to make a deliberate decision between giving up bigotry and prejudice and judging a great man fairly by the balance between his virtues and his faults, and the alternative of losing whatever chance the Democrats have to win the Presidency in 1928. It is not the conclusion of this art that Governor Smith will or will not nominated for President by the Democratic Party in 1928, but simply the South is watching him and preparing to make a deliberate decision between giving up bigotry and prejudice and judging a great man fairly by his balance between his virtues and faults, and the alternative of losing whatever chance the Democrats have win the Presidency in 1928. As a Virginian and a student of Southern history, I feel convinced that if facts are once correctly presented As a Virginian and a student of Southern history, I feel convinced that if the facts are once correctly presented to the South, that great American virtue, the sense of fair play, in which the South is strong, will lead it to agree that Governor Smith is a statesman of the first rank and worthy to sit in the seat of Thomas Jefferson and Woodrow Wilson. WE READILY ADMIT that as Governor of New York, Mr. Smith, though not a great man in our estimation, has, nevertheless, shown some of the attributes of greatness, so keen is his understanding of mob psychology and the measures which make a strong appeal to the masses. In other words, as a great statesman Governor Smith is a great politician. As a mob psychologist he knows exactly when and when not to go to the masses of New York's citizenry for approval or vindication of his executive acts or the measures he favors, and this keen insight has led many to believe that he has strength of character approaching that of a Roosevelt. TO MAKE A PROPER ESTIMATION OF GOVERNOR SMITH all one has to do is recall his acts—as contrasted with his words—during the recent Democratic convention in Madison Square Garden. In avowed anti-Klansman, he offered but little opposition when the convention refused to insert an anti-Klan plank in the Democratic party's platform. A long-time opponent of capitalistic control of government, he sat idly by while his party gave the nomination to an international banker's lawyer. A man of strong character and conviction would most certainly have withdrawn from that disgraceful convention and party and faced political oblivion rather than ally himself with a party so overwhelmingly dominated by Klannist influences. IT IS HARDLY necessary to comment on Mr. Woodhouse's statement of fair play as a Southern virtue. We know differently. We lay great stress on the activities in behalf of the candidacy of Governor Smith for President because it is altogether possible that the movement may be successful in 1928, and because his colorful career as Governor of New York State, always actively supported by Negroes, may lead the latter to support him for the higher office. It elected to the Presidency, Smith would again be compelled to face the forces of reaction in the South, and, judging by his activities during the recent Democratic convention, again compromise with them. Included in this compromise would most certainly be the just aspirations of the Negro to the full enjoyment of his constitutional rights.

The Defense Fund TAL CONTRIBUTIONS to the De-raised by the National Associe the Advancement of Colored Pie the Detroit Branch of the ass TOTAL CONTRIBUTIONS to the Defense Fund raised by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the Detroit Branch of the association for the Sweet case, amount to $71,166.16, which is in excess of the amount originally asked. More than half of the total amount was subscribed and paid by Negro contributors to the fund—an accomplishment in which all of us should take the utmost pride. Every dollar subscribed by the Negro for his own defense is worth a thousand dollars subscribed by members of other More White Criminals in S. C. Jails There are more Negroes in South Carolina than white people, and yet, for the first time, there are more whites in the prisons of South Carolina than Negroes. The crimes of larceny and other similar crimes have increased threateningly among the whites. "I can remember," says Judge Featherstone, of Spartanburg, "when it was the rarest thing in the world for a white man to be in sessions court except for fighting or homicide, but now three-fourths of the cases of housebreaking and larceny and other similar crimes are committed by whites." North Carolina judges are astounded and alarmed and disturbed at the increased number of young white men brought before them for the same character in the same trouble in judges in their sister town. It is a matter for serious reflection. What is the cause? And what is the remedy? influence supposed to make for education and civilization. There is improvement in the institution, but the lack of the eliaping of the home and lack of respect for law seems to have grown, while institutions for education have grown anace. Prejudice is a pernicious product of a deficient information in combination with excessive filicic. It judges and condemns in advance of facts and prostitutes principle to passion. It consciously incriminates others and unconsciously incipulates one's self and thus wields the double edged weapon of a two-fold curse. It sows animosity and antagonism where patriotism and piety require amity and cooperation. If you are a good Christian, Jew, or American, you must supplant prejudice with justice, first in yourself and then in others. Judge no group by one of its individuals or any individual you yourself or properly informed. If you find a man really not as he ought to be don't straightway damn him and all of his color, country, or creed. Rather be sufficient of a good Christian, Jew, or American to aid him with your example and influence to become what he should. To be prejudiced is to be primitive and pernicious.

Liberia is a Negro republic in West Africa, under the Atlantic, between Sierra Leone and every coast. With 43,000 square miles of terrain, mainly jungle, it is about the size of Ohio and very much the appearance of Illinois, if the State were turned over on its back and singletonly. It has perhaps 3,000,000 inhabitants, whom 75,000 live on the coast, speak English, a civilized. The remainder are savages, and so them are cannibals, but gentle cannibals, and take more readily to work than any other people in Africa. This African commonwealth bears a certain relation to the United States—a relation that best sentiment is going on between the rival constitutions modeled on, with a President, Senate and House. Liberia is a Negro republic in West Africa, bordering the Atlantic, between Sierra Leone and the Ivory Coast. With 43,000 square miles of territory, mainly jungle, it is about the size of Ohio and has very much the appearance of Illinois, if the latter State were placed over on its back and slanted diagonally. It has perhaps 3,000,000 inhabitants, of whom 75,000 live on the coast, speak English, and are civilized. The remainder are savages, and some of them are cannibals, but gentle cannibals, and they take more readily to work than any other black people in Africa. This African commonwealth bears a certain relation to the United States—a relation that began in sentiment but is going on to something more practical and vital. It has a constitution modeled after our own, with a President, Senate and House. Its capital city of Monrovia was named after our President Monroo. One of its coast countries bears the familiar name of Maryland. Its finances are administered by an American controller. Its army been reorganized by American effort. The nation has lost two of its efforts of white Americans in behalf of black Americans. The National Colonization Society of America did this work in behalf of free persons of color in the United States. Begun in 1816, its task was consummated North Carolina judges are astoined and alarmed and disturbed at the increased number of young white men brought before them for the same character of crimes that trouble the judges in our sister states. It is a matter for serious reflection. What is the cause? And what is the remedy? Another South Carolina judge, in another part of the state, notes the same situation. Judge Henry is quoted as saying that "there is some excuse for a Negro stealing. He was brought up in slavery, or his ancestors were, and he thought it little harm to seize a little of the property belonging to his boss, but in these days the race is on between the white and the black to which will number the other in the penitentiary." What is the cause? Is there a remedy? Judge Henry says: There is apparently a breakdown in reverence for parental authority; if children have no regard for the authority of their parents, the chances are that they will have no regard for the law of the land. I believe in the wisdom of Solomon "Share the rod and you spoil the child." We are losing our sense of responsibility with our reverence. There is a cult growing up which says we have no fixed moral standards—this lack of standards may have its beginning in the home. We, however, cannot correct that hereon you can merely put on the penalty here—the penalty that was not put on by the parent. The Columbia State, from which these quotations are taken, thinks there is "food for thought" in these presentations and adds a swelling tide of evil among whites, is to be checked and turned back, measures more potent than sorrowful thought must be found and applied."

These facts of history are important right now, and the sentiment of the philanthropic Americans of a century ago—they were both Northerners and Southerners, be it said—emerges as one of the biggest international and economic factors of the generation. Something like a trade war is being waged by British tropical colonies, which control much of the crude rubber supply of the world, against the United States, which hovers 75 per cent of its Opressive prices.

On his own account he has investigated that territory, and entered Mexico as a rubber grower, but he has leased 1,000,000 acres of land and began rubber plantations. Eventually this tract will take care of half the needs of our country. For the presence it is almost the sole hope of relief by purely economic means, although political means also may be useful. Africa suddenly becomes a major interest of Americans. Liberty will be worth watching. Constitutions in Africa Nearly all of West Africa under British rule now has constitutional rights. Great Britain's policy toward the natives appears to be one of gradual assimilation, giving the Negroes a share in government, first as unofficial members of deliberative assemblies and then as full fledged legislators. Recently Sierra Leone and Southern Nigeria adopted their Legislative Councils a proportion of elected African members, and the latest colony to effect this change. Letters patent reor-ger the Legislative Council were read in the Chamber of Accra last month and the Council will be in function early this year. early all of West Africa under British rule no constitutional rights. Great Britain's police and the natives appear to be one of graduation, giving the Negroes a share in government, first as unofficial members of deliberative assemblies and then as full legislative委员. Sierra Leone, Niger and Benin are the Negroes' Councils a proportion of electors in members. The Gold Coast is the latter to effect this change. Letters patent received the Legislative Council were read in the meeting of Accra last month and the Council will function early this year. Governor will be President of the new body will be composed of the officials and four financial members. Six of the latter will be from provinces, three Africans from the five European, Provincial councils and The Governor will be President of the new body, which will be composed of fifteen officials and fourteen unofficial members. Six of the latter will be Africans from the provinces, three Africans from the towns and five Europeans. Provincial councils are also established, elected by head chiefs, three for the eastern, two for the central and one for the western province. This will give the head chiefs an opportunity to discuss questions relating to the welfare of their respective provinces. The constitution also provides for the election by ballot of municipal councils with African majorities, a feature intended to encourage interest in municipal government among the natives. Of the European unofficial members of the Legislative Council one will be elected by the chambers of commerce, one by the mining interests and three members at large will be chosen on a general ticket. The introduction is a great step forward in instruction of the natives in the ways of civilization. Another favorable influence is the continued prosperity of the colony, largely due to cultivation of cocoa, which was first exported in 1891 to the amount of 80 pounds. In 1891 shipments amounted to 960 tons; in 1913 to 554,545 tons. Even during the war the figures kept mounting, reaching 80,571 tons in 1918. The industry is entirely in the hands of natives, whose standards of comfort have been enormously raised. What is the reason for growing crime among whites? What is the remedy?—Raleigh News and Observer. Prejudice Next to me sat a Negro workman who evidently was returning from the stress and grime of his day's work. He wasn't esthetically beautiful but he was morally admirable, as far as I could see. He represented industry and probably his objects of lustry by which his application was impired. Soon there entered the car a handsomely dressed young woman of the butterfly type, who apparently was returning from an afternoon's round of pleasure. If I was correct in my surmise she was one of that horde of social loafers, a painted perambulator of fashionable propriety, whose main occupation is to spend the time and his rather money. He was to room and stood before the Negro and myself. After a while the workman left. His seat was taken by this vivified combination of cosmetics and clothes. I leaned over and said to her: "Pardon me for not giving you my seat but I have had a busy afternoon running around to several hospitals and on other ministerial duties and am tired." "Oh that that's all right," she replied. "I think the incidence of that nigger refusing to give me a seat!" "Negroes are terrible people," I said. "Look in the paper of this morning and you will see what one of them did." In the morning's press was notice with a picture of a Negro who with great heroism saved several white women from death by fire. As I mentally contrasted this colored man along with that one of the car and his bedridened and degenerate critie I could not but feel with contemptuous disgust that she was the blackest of the three. As Negroes increase in the North white people who claim to be Christian or other bad better be careful not to disguise them by the color their clothes or to unregenerate individuals of their group. The Negro is with us to stay. He was forced to come. Let us be suffieldly Christian, Jewish, or American to treat him as we find him and if he is not what he might be let us help him to become what he should. Our civilization will be evaluated by what it does for its less fortunate members. In five of the thirteen original States, Negroes were not only recognized as citizens, but were also admitted to the exercise of the right of suffrage. (From the New York Sun.) Keeping Fit:- By R.

These as vitamins THERE is an old saying that "we eat to live." This is true, yet it is far more important "to know just what to eat in order to live." On such a knowledge depends much of our health and happiness. The essentials in foods are carbohydrates (starches), fats, proteins, slat and water. Most every one knows this. Recent physiological chemistry has made a startling discovery that certain foods also contain elements absolutely necessary for proper growth, nutrition and strength of the body tissues. These new food elements are known as vitamins. All foods do not contain these vitamins, thus it is very important and necessary to know the particular foods which contain these life giving properties. Science has now recognized that certain diseases and nutritional disturbances occur only when a particular diet is deficient in vitamins is enten over a certain length of time. vitamins is found in milk, eggs, condensed milk, cheese and most of the nuts, such as peanuts, almond, coconut and hickory. They also contain some of the A class vitamins. This class is found plentifully in sweetbreads (brains of animals), liver, carrots, collage of carrots, celery, parsley and potatoes. There are three known forms of these vitamins: Fat soluble A: water soluble B: and water soluble C: a combination of foods rich in these vitamins should be the ideal diet. These foods are butter, milk egg yolk, carrots, spinach, lettuce, cabbage and the germs of cereals. These contains vitamins of the fat soluble A class: meat contains a small amount of this A class. Modern milling processes have deprived our grain foods of much of their essential vitamin value. Such modern rice, puffed oats, corn flakes, Force, white flour, in their process of preparation at the mill and factory lose their vitamin contents, and are thus deprived of their chief nutritional values.

MAY seem to be chatting a good deal about novels when more serious books on the Negro remain on when more serious books on the Negro remain on my shelves yet unreviewed, but this is the season for books "in lighter vein" and I know of no more entertaining and touching recent novel dealing with the Negro than this of Garnett's. Garnett is an Englishman, a writer who loves phantasy, "The Sailor's Return," with Merrick's "Quaint Companions," which I have already reviewed, draws a delightful picture of a colored man and a colored woman out of his and her usual environment. While these two stories are not in the least alike, one places them together because of their delicacy of touch and their artistry. The sailor, William Targett, returns to England from a long voyage in foreign parts. With him as his traveling companion is a black man carrying a large basket. You meet the two first on the train out of Southampton, where, alone in the carriage, the basket is opened and a little black boy jumps out. He has laid quietly without crying, a tribute to Jungle-reared babies, throughout the trip. You soon learn that the black man is a Tulip, William's wife and that the little black boy is their son. They had an exciting courtship in Dahomey, and Tulip, who is a king's daughter, brought her husband a small fortune in gold and ivory. Now they are in a land wholly new to Tulip and one where she feels little at home. "Our folks are not so merry as the Africans are," her husband explains to his young brother, and that makes the greatest change for her, as she is used to laughter. Often she has asked me why the men here do not dance, why they never beat drums, or clap their hands, or shout songs in chorus. She thinks we are a very dull set of dogs here." The story of this strangely assorted but happy couple ends in sorrow. Tulip soon encounters, from her husband's sister, as much race antagonism as she would receive had she been in Georgia. If she had been poor, a servant, there would have been no word against her, but Targett dresses her in beautiful clothes and together they go on gay, uncleviled good times, such as swimming naked in the ocean, and accordingly they move to the town. The sorrow that comes to them, however, is the sorrow of accident, not of any loss of trust and affection.

Spinach contains all three classes of vitamins and is excellent food for adults and children. The juice of boiled spinach is excellent for nursing children and bottle-fed babies.

But the picture of Tulip at the lust is pathetic, however unemotionality it is told. After her husband's death she goes on "working as the drudge of everyone about the place. In the village they were used to her and now that she was always dressed in the poorest castoff clothes her mistress had given her, nobody shouted at her or jeered as she went by. She had learned to know her station in life and she did her duty in it very well. Her little boy who had sent her to Africa that he might not stay on in England where he would be just a "little mizer." In both Merrick's and Garnett's books England is shown as very unfriendly to the Negro. But perhaps I take them too seriously. Theirs are tales of imagination and Garnett depicts the English as well as the African in a somewhat fantastic manner. "Negress" BY WILLIAM PICKENS.
