HEIGHTS COURT FLAYED VOL. XVII. NO. 8. Published Every Wednesday by The Amsterdam News Publishing Co. 2233 7th Ave NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1926 Entered as second-class matter Dec. 31, 1909, at the Post Office at New York, under the Act of March 3, 1879. SECTION ONE RAID ON ROOMING HOUSE "LOVE NEST" REVEALS DOUBLE LIFE OF MARRIED PAIR Colorful News "Movies" BY THE CAMERAMAN Howard University Appropriations THE Howard University appropriation for the coming fiscal year is in the Congressional mill, which grinds slowly and with exceeding oratory and perspiration. When the initial item of $218,000 struck the floor of the House last Friday, Congressman Butler B. Hare, of South Carolina, who has stepped into the shoes forsaken by Mr. James Byrnes, upheld the traditional custom of his predecessor by having the entire item stricken out on a point of order, which, while warmly debated by Congressman Cramton, of Michigan, and Congressman Hill, of Maryland, was sustained when the South Carolinian said: "I shall not discuss the merits or demerits of the proposition at this time, but insist on the point of order." And with one sweep of the clerk's pen went Howard salaries, ice, stationery, laboratory supplies, biological apparatus, buildings, furniture, fixtures, libraries, and even fuel and light for Freedmen's Hospital. If anyone thought the Howard tree of knowledge would be spared, he has another dream coming, for "Woodman" Hare of South Carolina did not spare even a single branch of Dr. J. Stanley Durkeen's pet. It is consoling, though, to review the arguments of the fearless John Philip Hill, Maryland Republican, and Congressman Cramton of Michigan. Mr. Cramton said, with deep feeling: "I ask the gentleman (Mr. Hare) not to insist upon his point of order. Howard University has been supported, in small part, by Federal funds for some 40 or 50 years. It has in that time developed until they now have a regular attendance of over 2,000 colored students—students who would not have an opportunity elsewhere to get the training they get at this university. I personally feel that there is a real Federal obligation in connection with that institution." Mr. Hill said: "Mr. Chairman, the appropriation for Howard University stands on a different basis from other appropriations connected with the Federal encouragement of education. Federal assistance has been rendered to Howard University for 40 or 50 years. I do favor in every possible way the encouragement of education by the Federal Government in its own proper sphere, and I hope the bill will promptly pass, since this Congress should do everything possible to encourage so valuable an institution as Howard University. Mr. Hare's point of order won in the "finals," however, and it re- (Continued on Page 12.) GROCE AND JACKSON NOT PICKPOCKETS Similarity in names, Groce and Grace, caused it to be falsely reported several weeks ago that Horace Groce, 24, 55 W. 133rd street, was sentenced to jail for fifteen days on a charge of pick-pocketing. Groce was sentenced to the workhouse on a charge of disorderly conduct by Magistrate Earle B. Smith in the Washington Helghts Court. A man by the name of Horace Grace and not Groce was sentenced to the workhouse for picking pockets. It was also reported that Joseph Jackson, 23, 2303 Eighth avenue, was convicted of the same offence. He was charged also with disorderly conduct. The charges against Groce and Jackson grew out of a fracas in an Eighth avenue restaurant. HELD AS FUGITIVE FROM CONNECTICUT Accused of being a fugitive from justice, Harold O'Nell. 2012 Fifth avenue, was held in $1,000 bail for the police authorities of Hartford, Connecticut, when he was arraigned before Magistrate Dearna in the Washington Heights Court, Monday. O'Nell is said to have secured an automobile on a certain condition, Falling to keep his promise, he fed with the machine from the state. Pullman Porters, Attention! Big Mass Meeting WEDNESDAY, S. P. M., JANUARY 20 ALTHA ST. JEFFREY HALL 125 West. 1300th St. SPEAKERS: A. Philip Randolph A. L. Totten Walter White A. C. Holden TO "BREAK THE BONDS" Patronize Only Stores Employing Negroes INJUSTICE DISPENSED IN HEIGHTS CT., SAYS DIST. ATTY. INJUSTICE DISPENSED IN HEIGHTS CT., SAYS DIST. ATTY. Possible for Prisoners Accused of Serious Offenses to Be Dismissed Without Trial, He Says —Worst in City A certain clique operates so efficiently in the Washington Heights Court that it is possible for prisoners charged with serious crimes to be dismissed without trial. This deplorable condition was attacked by Assistant District Attorney Charles White, assigned this month to the Heights Court, Monday. Declaring that the condition is acute and is causing a gross miscarriage of justice, Mr. White strongly asserted that the Heights Court was the worst regulated court in New York. The assistant district attorney said that it was even becoming difficult to get the police to respect the law. An instance where a police officer refused to make an arrest for theft at the request of a restaurant man was cited by him. It is a common occurrence in this court for a policeman to testify in behalf of the defendant. To explain that he was not biased towards all defendants, Mr. White said that he sometimes took the side of the defendant when it was obvious that he was being "framed-up." When a person comes into the court, a person is in trouble and justice should always prevail, he stated. Fifteen complaining witnesses failed to appear in court last week. In each one of the cases the complainant was held out in the corridor when the case was called. Expressing his belief that he could bring about a better condition, the district attorney explained that he would break down the clique in three months if his time was extended to that length. In citing similar conditions that have existed in courts, Mr. White declared that the Harlem Court functioned for a long time in the same manner. FINE PEDDLERS WITH NO LICENSES $2 EACH For ostructuring traffic and peddling without a license, seven men were fined $2 each by Magistrate Douras in the Washington Heights Court, Monday. Two of the men were colored. The men gave their names and addresses as, Malcolm Brown, white, 101 W. 141st street; Charles Kelly, 60 Edgecombe; Nathan Kaplan, white, 960 Grand avenue; Charlest Welnert, white, 375 E. 174th street; Karl Lenman, white, 520 W. 168th Street, and James Hill, 48 W. 186th street. BOULIN DETECTIVE AGENCY 116 East 123rd St. Harlem 5848(day) Brad, 0850(night) Mays Withdraws From Pullman Brotherhood In a telegram received yesterday, R. L. Mays of 3659 Michigan avenue, president of the Railway Men's International Association, states that he has withdrawn from participation in the organization of the Pullman Porters' Brotherhood. He gives as his reason: "Mismanagement of the campaign." A copy of his resignation is on the way, but had not been received at the time of going to press. City-Wide "Y" Campaign Begins West 135th Street Branch to Raise $8,245 of Total of $465,319 for City Beginning Monday, the New York City Y. M. C. A. will set out to raise $465,319, to meet 1926 expenses, including its share in the expenses of the National Council, Foreign Work, New York State Committee; the Y. M. C. A. College at Springfield, Mass., and the Summer School at Silver Bay, Lake George. The annual financial canvass was launched at the annual dinner, held in the Hotel Astor Friday night, attended by about 500 association workers and persons interested in the progress of its work Cleveland H. Dodge presided at the dinner and the speakers were: The Rev. Dr. Daniel L. Polling, cochairman of the Marble Collegiate Church; Judge Adrian Lyon, chairman of the General Board of the National Y. M. C. A. Council; Richard W. Lawrence, vice-president of the New York Y. M. C. A. and Arthur Rugh, Bible Secretary for China. In his address, Mr. Rugh pointed out the necessity of enlarging the work in China, as much for the benefit of the United States as for the Orient. He said that $40,000 was available for Communicate propaganda in China by Bolshevist agents. He also stated that most of the unfavorable reports of civil wars in China were untrue and that most of the disturbances are caused, not by the inability of the Chinese for self-government, but by avaricious foreign Powers. 138TH ST. BRANCH'S SHARE. The $465,319 to be raised by contributions completes a budget of $2,143,473, $4,677 of which is for the support of the West 135th Street Branch. This Branch requires only $3,243 in contributions, and Thomas A. Taylor, executive secretary of the Branch; Henry C. Parker, chair man of the Board of Managers, and others interested in the work of the "1" are confident that the local campaign committee will succeed in raising this amount. The 135th Street Branch was represented at the Hotel Astor dinner by the following citizens: John E. Nall, Henry C. Parker, William H. Wortham, David L. M. Clark, William C. Anderson, Jr. Dr. Channing H. T. Hoblas, Javan A. Steele, William K. Bell, Rudolph J. Thomas, Wilberforce D. D. Simmons, R. B. DeFrantz, Alan L. Dingle, Clarke L. Smith, S. B. Bourra, George E.

BRITISH JAMAICANS TO HONOR EX-PRESIDENT The British Jamalcans Benevolent Association, Inc., will give a banquet and presentation in honor of its ex-President, Mr. R. S. Trew, on Thursday evening, January 28, at the St. Luke's Hall, 125-27 West 130th street INJURY CLAIM OF LABORER LEADS TO STABBING Buffalo Man Held Without Bail Pending Outcome of injuries to Lawyer—Refuses to Talk to Amsterdam Reporter Facing a charge of seriously stabbing William Giddes, 40, a white lawyer, in the office of the State Department of Labor, William Breon, 33, who is being held without bail in the Tombs Prison, refused to talk to a reporter from The Amsterdam News Monday. Until last Tuesday, the day of the alleged assault, Breon was an inmate of the City Ledging House. Breon's animosity against Giddes was due. it is claimed, to the fact that the Employees' Liability Assurance Corporation of 120 Broadway, by whom Giddes was employed, had taken an appeal on the award in Breon's case which the State Department had found for him. He was injured by a steam roller four or five months ago while working on a road in Buffalo. He put in a claim for injuries which, if awarded, entitled him to two-thirds of his salary while incapacitated. Three months ago he came to New York and his claim was transferred to the branch of the State Labor Department here. Breon's claim was recently awarded, but it could not be paid as the Assurance Employees' Liability Corporation filed an appeal. It was said that the appeal on the award in Breon's case was based on the awardment of the Assurance Corporation that his condition was not entirely due to injuries received in the steam roller accident, but that he had been in a bad physical condition when the accident occurred. It is alleged that Breon appeared at the department building last Tuesday, and when he was informed by one of the women employees that the appeal was still pending he shouted: "I am going to get that white man!" He made good his threat. After attacking Gldes, Breon dashed out of the room and through the corridors of the building with his knife—a large pocket knife with a long hook attached to it—still open. William Burke, an investigator for the Department of Labor, who was coming along the corridor, grappled with the man, who seemed to be in a frenzy and sought to throw him. Burke and Breon struggled violently, both finally crashing through a glass partition which separated the corridor from one of the rooms. Burke then succeeded in getting Breon down and taking his knife from him. The man was arrested by Patrolman John McKeon of the East Thirty-fifth street station. The prisoner was later held without ball to await the outcome of Giddes's injuries by Magistrate Corrigan in the Yorkville Court. Patrolman McKeon told the Magistrate that Giddes's condition is serious. Klan Menaces Florida Real Estate Owners TAMPA, Fla., Jan. 18.—City and county officials have ordered police to make a special effort to round up reported bands of night riders, which officials charge, are making wholesale attempts to frighten Negro property owners of Tampa into selling their holdings. R. R. Dobey, holder of property said to be valued at several thousands of dollars, told the members of the City Commission he was warned recently to leave Tampa within 48 hours and a burning cross was left at the front gate. Police were detailed to protect Jobey and his home. City officials admitted they had received numerous complaints from colored citizens who said they had been threatened by masked men. Dobey told the Commissioners that after the mob left his house he saw members of it set fire to another home nearby. Shots Set Fire to Newark House Man Shot in Arm at Close Range by Patrolman Police reserves and the fire department were called out shortly before midnight Saturday, as a result of a free-for-all fight at 41 Division place, Newark, where Luke McLeod, 35, of 206 McWhorter street was shot twice in the arm by Patrolman Werner of the First Precinct, who was summoned to the place to quiet the disturbers. McLeod is in the City Hospital receiving treatment for two bullet wounds. Patrolman Werner was walking along Division place when he was informed that there was a fight at 41 Division place. When he arrived there he encountered McLeod coming out of the hallway with a stove-lifter in his hand. The policeman fired two shots at McLeod. They took effect in his right arm. So close was the range from the revolver that the sparks from the discharging cartridges set fire to a balastrade. An alarm brought out the fire department and a riot call brought reserves from the First Precinct and headquarters. The damage from fire was slight. Heavy Fog Causes Harlem Accidents The heavy fog that blanketed Manhattan on Monday morning caused several serious accidents in Harlem. While crossing the street from west to east side at 137th street and Lenox avenue, William Cracker, 49. 57 W. 137th street, was struck by a taxicab owned by Michael Richmond, 38 W. 145th street. Cracker was taken to the Harlem Hospital, where he was treated for a contusion of the left hip. Frank Leacock, 11 years old, was struck by a truck at Seventh avenue and 141st street while he was on his way to school. Gordon Price, the truck driver, was released after the youth refused to make a complaint. Howard Pinn, 8 years old, 213 W. 140th street, was knocked down by a Ford truck on 141st street, between Bradhurst and Eighth avenues. He was attended by Dr. Schwab of the Harlem Hospital. LONG SENTENCE FOR KILLING HIS CHILD PRESCOTT. Ark. Jan. 18.—Julius Young was convicted in Circuit Court Tuesday of murder in the second degree for the killing of his two-year-old child last summer. He was sentenced to serve 21 years in the penitentiary. Young also convicted of assaulting his wife and mother-in-law, Mrs. Annie Wright, with intent to kill and sentenced to serve five years in the penitentiary. He will appeal to the Supreme Court. BRIGGS IN COURT AS PROTECTOR OF BLACK CROSS SHIPS BRIGGS IN COURT AS PROTECTOR OF BLACK CROSS SHIPS As Vice-President of Company, to Whom Ship Is Leased, He Presses Charge Against White An amazing sequel to the world-famous duel between Marcus Garvey and Cyril Briggs was developed in Jefferson Market Court, this city, Thursday, when Mr. Briggs appeared in that court to press a charge of grand hecney against the former white chief officer of the Garvey Black Cross Company's vessel, the "General George W. Goethals," now at Pier 75, North River. The former chief officer, John M. Gorrell, was hold in $500 ball for the higher court by Magistrate Jean Norris upon the representation of Mr. Briggs that two coils of new mantle rope, placed in the care of the chief officer, had been unlawfully removed from the boat, with the connivance of the chief officer. Mr. Briggs appeared in court in the capacity of vice-president and secretary of the Oversea Navigation Corporation of S0 Wall street, operating agents for the Black Cross Company's vessel. Replying to some questions by the writer as to how he found himself in the role of fighting for the interests of the Garveyites, Mr. Briggs sturt with emphasis that "this is a matter of business with me. So long as my firm continues to act as agents for the vessel it will be my duty to protect the interests of the vessel and its owners—even to the extent of putting in jail those who attempt to juggle with the property of the vessel on the assumption that it will be 'easy pickings' because of the fact that the owners are colored and are, moreover, experienced in the shipping business. "Furthermore, so far as having been an enemy of Marcus Garvey, it is now an acknowledged fact that Garvey was his own worst enemy. Had I been the bitter, relentless personal enemy that Garvey professes to see in me, is it likely that I would have refused to testify against the man at his trial? is it likely that he would have found occasion, even during the first stages of my criticism of his policies and methods, to have written me a letter commending my stand in re his first convention call? And, anyway, is there anything so strange about my present role of defending the interests of the owners of the steamship "Goethals" when the very fight I had with Garvey was occasioned by my desire to protect the hard-earned monies of thousands of Negro working men and women against the poor business judgment and immature methods of Garvey? "But, as I have said, this is a matter of business with me. There may be some sentiment, but the business end comes first. I am here as an officer of my company." STANDARD LIFE SOLD. ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 18.—The Standard Life Insurance Company was sold to the Standard Life Insurance Company of Arkansas for $750,000, according to an announcement made last week. 16 PAGES Complete in Two Sections 3c. IN GREATER NEW YORK ELSEWHERE 5c Preacher Prays, Then Leaps to Death in Mine FAIRMONT, W. Va., Jan. 16.—Twenty-one men entombed in an air lock after an explosion in the Jamison Coal & Coke Company mine near here were released today. Originally there were 23 in the group rescued, but two or them, both Negroes and one a minister, perished in an attempted dash for the mine shaft soon after the men had taken refuge in the air lock. Before the minister left them, he led in prayer. 25 Babies Found in Heatless Flat Landlord Haled to Court and Placed in Bail for Further Hearing Twenty-five little babies made a complaint through their mothers against the bad "heat man" Monday. Mothers of these infants, appearing in the Washington Heights Court before Magistrate Douras, declared that they had been without steam heat for over six weeks. For their babies' sake women begged the Court to insist upon their agent supplying them with steam heat and hot water. The cause of the infants was championed by Assistant District Attorney Charles White. The agent of the premises at No. 664 Lenox avenue, Gilbert Martin, white, was censured for falling down upon his responsibility. Mr. White explained to the court that he questioned a number of the mothers about the condition and that he had learned that the housewives were forced to wear their heavy coats in the house. If the little children were given the liberty to crawl five seconds on the floor they would never come out of the house alive, the district attorney shouted. On measuring the temperatures in several of the apartments a health officer found that the temperature was the same inside as it was outside. The bad "heat man" as the infants style the agent was held in $500 ball for further investigation. BAPTIST CHURCH IN WASHINGTON IN ROW WASHINGTON, D. C. Jan. 18. Details of the strife going on in the Morning Star Baptist Church here were revealed when the Rev. Roger Chambers, assistant pastor of the church, wea brought into police court on a charge of threatening the Rev. Frank C. Bundy, the pastor. "After listening to the case for nearly two hours," the Court remarked, "I have come to the conclusion that there seems to be some slight discord in the Morning Star Baptist Church. But who started it and how it will end I am unable to say." He dismissed the defendant. WOMAN TRIES SUICIDE AT SODA FOUNTAIN WEST NEWTON, Pa., Jan. 18.—Miss Ora Reed, 23 years old, of Cleveland, attempted to commit suicide in a soda grill here Wednesday morning, according to police. She drank a soda into which she had poured iodine. An antidote was given her and that night she left for Cleveland. Police were unable to learn why the woman wanted to take her life. WARNING! The Abyssinian Baptist Church, 132 West 183th street, issues said notice: An impostor is soliciting money and other articles for the Home for the Aged; also soliciting money for calenders.

Prea- HARLEM ATTORNEY TRAPPED WITH NORA HOLT-RAY HARLEM ATTORNEY TRAPPED WITH NORA HOLT-RAY Operatives of Boulin's Private Agency, Accompanied by Several Witnesses and Wife of Lawyer William J. Patterson, Find Pair Undressed in Room of 132nd Street House Harlem's mythical "400," which has been ailing for a long time, suffered a serious setback early Wednesday morning when private detectives from the Boulin Agency broke into a furnished room at 158 West 132nd street and exposed Attorney William L. Patterson, a member of a law firm with offices at No. 2303 Seventh avenue, and Mrs. Nora Holt-Kay, beautiful wife of Joseph Kay, of Bethlehem, Pa., to the world. Exposed is the right word, for according to the twelve or more witnesses in the raiding party, including Mrs. Minnie Summers Patterson, Attorney Patterson's spouse, who lives at No. 2250 Seventh avenue, both parties were undressed and in bed when the sleuths crashed in the door of the room after its occupants had refused to open it. The hour was around four-thirty in the morning. RAID REAL SURPRISE. It is not known exactly how the private detectives got into the rooming house where Mrs. Ray and Atty. Patterson were found, and succeeded in escorting Mrs. Patterson and the other witnesses, including a uniformed policeman, up the steps and to the top floor room occupied by the pair, without alarming the entire household. Number 158 is a private house. When the party reached the top floor one of the detectives knocked on the room door several times but not response. He then proceeded to crash it and soon admitted the little gathering before either of the occupants could get dressed. A fist fight between the attorney and one of the detectives took place soon after an entrance was made into the room. The landlady, Mrs Mae. Holland, stated that she rented the room to Mr. Patterson for $8 per week. Mrs. Ray's marriage in July, 1923, to Jos. Ray, confidential secretary of Charles Schwab, president of the Bettlehem Steel Company, attracted considerable attention because of the supposed wealth of the two contract parties. At that time she was widow of the late George W. (Continued on Page 2 CIRCULATIC IS POWERFU THE NEW YOR AMSTERDAM DIT Greater New York circ more than double th other Colored newspap New York.

Pluko WHITE HAIR DRESSING FULLY GUARANTEED Pluko HAIR DRESSING Black and White Gans 50¢ Green Gans 25¢ MORE THAN A MILLION PACKAGES ARE SOLD A YEAR TWO EVICTION BREWING TROUBLE IN JERSEY CHURCH Branhams Remained Away From Services Sunday for Fear of Another Ejection—Choir Girl's Letter Made Public Miss Inez Branham, nor her mother, who were evicted Sunday before last from the Lafayette Presbyterian Church, at the request of the pastor, Rev. William A. Byrd, attended services there Sunday for fear of a recurrence of the Sunday before. Miss Branham's refusal to resign from the choir is given as the cause of the disturbance. A very singular circumstance surrounds this case, because, so far as is known, no charge against Miss Branham has been lodged, by either pastor or choir leader, for her dismissal. The Rev. and Mr. Branham made a personal visit to the church several Sundays ago to ascertain why a chair had been removed from behind their daughter, and the church leaders promised them to adjust the matter. The following letter to the officers and members of the Trustee Board of the church elicited the reply published last week. "I now take this opportunity to explain myself in reference to my discharge from the choir. Two weeks ago last Sunday I went into the choir with the best of spirits towards everyone. When I went into the choir I knew that I had a seat behind me, but while Rey Brayed was praying someone moved the chair from behind me. I turned around and said don't play that on me. I had the horrors of falling and my nerves just gave away. "The following Thursday, Mr. C. James came to my house and stayed over two hours, talking about the church and choir and telling my mother and I that the church was nothing but a society church, also saving how faithful I had been. He said I have never given them my trouble and hoped that I would be able to get out to the rehearsal and choir on Sunday, as they wanted to keep the young people and get rid of the older ones, as they have given so much trouble, and they wanted young blood. So I went to the rehearsal O'clock, and after then Mr. James came and told me that I was discharged. I asked him for what, he said he didn't know. They both let me rehearse until after 10. I came home and told my mother and she immediately got Mr. James on the 'phone and asked him why was I discharged from the choir and he told her the name. My mother asked him had I broken any rule and he said no, not that no knew. "The following Sunday I went to church and roped myself and Mr. Adger told me that I could not sing, I told him I was going to sing, because I had not done anything. So Rev. Byrd told me to take my robe off and I did so. My mother and father asked Rev. Byrd and he told them that I had done nothing and he would adjust it next week. So my mother gave him the entire week, he has never called up to ask anything about me, and everywhere we want people were talking about me being discharged, which was certainly embarrassing after all the years of service I have given this church. "So this Sunday my mother went down and told me to keep on robe and go into that choir if anyone one else went. Rev. Byrd did not even speak to my mother, but ordered me up to take my robe off. She asked him why, but he paid no attention, and finally my mother made the public explanation to the church, saying if he were a Christian minister he would at least have kept his promise and been to see about me and was determined that I would not take off that robe unless he gave her reason. So then he ordered some one to go out for an officer. But neither raitin nor sinner would go, but Mr. James started. Well might Mr. James say there was no religion there—only a society church." So Rev. Byrd took off his cassock and robe, put on his hat and coat, and went out to get an officer. The officer came in to take us out. When the officer came, Rev. Byrd said: "Take that woman out and that girl in the choir!" The officer was very polite and refused to take us. Of course, it did make me historical. (Signed) "MISS INEZ BRANHAM." SEES TWO ROBBERS LEAVING APARTMENT Two men were held in $3,000 bail each on a charge of breaking into the apartment of Attorney Ellie Lovelace, 485 Lenox avenue, by Magistrate McQuade in the Washington Heights Court. The lawyer said he was entering his apartment late Thursday night when he noticed the two men leave the house carrying two overcoats which he recognized as his own. He gave chase, he said, and was joined by Policeman Vienot of the W. 125th street station, who overtook the man and placed them under arrest. At the police station they gave their names as John Harris, 221 W. 125th street, and Robert Moore, 18, 2745 Seventh avenue. DISHWASHER SAYS After drasing Harry Raymond, a dishwasher, into a sallon, two men are accused of robbing him of $8. The accused men, Arthur Sanders, 25, 23, Prince street, and Robert Knight, 22, 25 W., 132d street, were each held in $5,000 ball for the Grand Jury when arraigned before Magistrate McQuade in Helights Court Saturday. Lawyer Trapped With Mrs. Ray (Continued from Page 1.) the celebrated Chicago saloon keeper, who upon his death left her a considerable sum of money. According to acquaintances of the couple, after a honeymoon spent in Europe, they lived together about two years. Later in the same year of her marriage, Mrs. Ray was defendant in a suit brought by Mrs. Bertha Battie, of 3821 Indiana avenue, a maid in her employ, for $25,000 damages, growing out of the maid's arrest for the theft of jewelry belonging to Mrs. Ray. Atty. Patterson and his wife, who was Miss Minnie Summers, an expert dressmaker, have been separated for some time; she living at the Seventh avenue address and he living in the Y. M. C. A., in 135th street, it is said. Since their separation, he is also said to have partially supported her. They have no children. SEVERAL SUITS MAY BE BROUGHT. Two divorce actions and possibly two alienation suits are expected to grow out of the circumstances revealed by the raid. Mrs. Patterson is expected to bring action for divorce against her husband and sua Mrs. Ray for damages for the alienation of his affections. Mr. Ray, who has an action pending against his wife in which he names a cabaret owner as correspondent, will probably, through his attorneys, Taylor & McCarthy, of Bettieheim, Pz. bring another divorce action naming Patterson as correspondent. In addition, he too, may ask damages for the alienation of his wife's affections, from both persons named as correspondents. Ray's wealth has been conservatively estimated at $200,000. He has been in Schwab's employ for thirty-eight years. His wife is said to have at least $50,000 in her own name. Her attorney is said to be John R. K. Scott, of Philadelphia, Pa. STORY SUPPRESSED. But far more startling than the circumstances laid bare by the Boulin agency, for it has been supposed for some time that the wealthy matron and young attorney were on "friendly" terms, is the failure of the local weekly newspapers to publish the story last week. As has been before stated, the affair took place Wednesday morning, nearly twenty hours after The Amsterdam News was published, but in plenty, of time for all other weeklies published here except The Nero World. Even the Tattler, for some unknown reason, passed the story up. How the story will be dealt with this week by the Chicago Defender, where Mrs. Ray is well known, and other out-of-town weeklies cannot be surmised. In an article as the local newspapers did not print the story last week, it is hardly probable that it will be presented this week. MRS. RAY LEAVES. Mrs. Ray, who was stopping with Atty, and Mrs. Harry Austin of 237 W. 139th street, left the city last week for an unknown destination. She was to have danced for the New York Urban NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JAN, 20, 1926 League's Charity affair, to be held in the Capitol Palace cabaret, Tuesday evening, January 26, but it is not known whether or not she will return to the city by that time. Lads, 17, Held for Burglary One Confesses Theft of $400 Worth of Clothing From Woman One youth was held without bail and another was held in $1,000 bail on a charge of burglary by Magistrate Gordon in the Harlem Court, Saturday. The youths gave their names as William Garrett, 17, 60 East 131st street, and Harry Sandeford, 17, 147 West 131st street.

Bradhurst 0678 JOYRIDERS IN WRECK; TWO HURT IN CRASH; 3 ARRESTED Fleetest Car in Newark Service Stolen From in Front of Hospital—Two Other Cars Smashed Detective Eugene Seery left his car in front of Beth Israel Hospital in Newark Sunday night and twenty minutes later when he left the hospital the auto, a high powered car known as the fastest in the Police Department garage, was gone. Then things began to happen. The car had been stolen. Two women and a man are under arrest as material witnesses. Detectives Hill and Shine came on the run when Seory reported the racer, the pride of the department, stolen. They established the fact that a lone man had hopped behind the wheel and sped away. The car was traced to a saloon at Barclay and Kinney streets, where witnesses said a large party of men and women had piloted in. Then followed confused reports of a big car racing through Newark, violating traffic rules, spinning high pitched notes of close harmony in jazz. Another Car Stolen. Before long the angry reports that poured into headquarters concerned a car other than the police racer, but one just as heavy and just as fast. The joyride came to a smashing climax early Sunday morning when the machine smashed into a taxi driven by William Groiner, 129 Norfolk street, at Badger avenue and Runyon street. Another car driven by Rudolph Richards, 46 Conklin avenue, was wrecked when the taxi was hurled against it by the racer. Leon Simpliner, 27, of 52 13th avenue, and Lillian Rosenfeld, 22, of 207 Hillside avenue, passengers in the cab, were taken to City Hospital. Simpliner was in serious condition with a possible skull fracture. Patrolman Ernest Rogenthal, a couple of hundred feet away, saw the joyriders pile out of their auto and run. He opened fire when they failed to heed his call, but did not hit anyone. Not long after the two women and the colored man were arrested in connection with the case. Their names were not given out. Detectives Hill and Shine found the police car abandoned at Kinney and Howard streets at 4.30 a.m. 144th Street Tenants Complain of Service To allow the health officer to investigate the premises Samuel Wexler, 112 W. 144th Street, agent for the premises No. 116 W. 144th street, was ordered to appear later this week in the Washington Heights Court by Magistrate Douras Monday. Four tenants made complaints against the agent for not supplying hot water and steam heat. In rebuking the agent for not furnishing steam, Magistrate Douras said that because fire is in the furnace is no sign that the building is warm. Warning was given to the agent to give the tenants heat at once.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JAN, 20, 1926 PITTSBURGH BANK CLOSED BY ORDER OF BANKING DEP'T Frozen Assets Given as Reason for Action Founded by R. W. Hunte in 1919 Pittsburgh, Pa., Jan. 18. Close on the heels of the suspension of the Pittsburgh American, and, following a steady withdrawal of deposits, last Tuesday morning Pittsburghers awoke to find that their largest banking institution had been closed by the State Banking Department. Poor real estate investments were blamed by the state bank examiner for the shortage in cash that resulted in the closing of the Steel City Banking Co., at Sor Wylie avenue and a branch at 6309 Broad street, East End. Five thousand persons had $300,000 on deposit in the bank. The total assets amount to $485,000, of which 40 per cent is composed of mortgages on which return is slow. The paid-in capital of the company was $55,960. R. P. Ferguson, Chief State Banking Examiner in the Pittsburgh district, closed the bank and its branch at 6309 Broad street, East Liberty, and the business passed into the custody of Peter G. Cameron, State Secretary of Banking. DIRECTED BY MINISTERS. The Steel City Banking Co. was a partnership organized November 17, 1913, under the name of the R. W. Hunter Banking Co. and obtained a license to operate as a private bank. The name was changed in 1921. Rev. Moses S. Hunter, who resigned as president, a few weeks ago, is a brother of the man under whose name the company was first organized. Rev. J. C. Austin is vice-president of the banking company. The third clergyman in the directorate is Rev. J. H. Robinson, Jr., of 2402 Webster avenue. Other officers of the bank at its closing were Arthur D. Stevenson, a lawyer, secretary and cashier, and John H. Fletcher, assistant cashier. Day, Hunter's place as president of the institution was to have been filled at the meeting of the directors scheduled for next week. It has been known for some time that the bank was in difficulties and persons familiar with its history and operations were not surprised to learn that the doors had finally been closed. The Steel City Bank was part of a group of institutions under the inspirational leadership of Dr. J. C. Austin, pastor of Ebbw冤 Bandit Church of this city. These organizations were: Ebonezer Bandit Church, the Home Findler League, a real estate corporation; the Pittsburgh American, a weekly newspaper which suspended publication with the issue of January 1 Sons of the Southern Soil, a kind of political-religious organization, and the Steel City Bank. Besides these organizations there were many others operated by private persons as individual businesses, but which were, nevertheless, closely associated with the above-named corporations and the man at the head of them. NO RUN ON BANK. Although there has never been any noticeable run on the bank, withdrawals have been steady and constant.

It seems that a very small amount of this money was redeposited. The Banking Department has given out no word-as to the actual condition of the bank. A lone notice on the door announced that the Steel City Banking Co., a partnership, had been closed. Police protection was asked for, and all day two city police officers stood outside the door. DIRECTORS. The Bank came under direct supervision of the State Banking Department under a law which became operative last May. The closing resulted from the second examination made by the Banking Department. Besides those named, the directors of the company were: J. W. Loving, gardener, 500 Greenfield street; W. H. Hughes, merchant, 511 Chaundy street; L. H. Walker, salesman, 2437 Webster avenue; J. H. Johnson, merchant, 2616 Hallett street; James M. Burwall, dentist, 1505 Wylie avenue; Hampton Ricketta, janitor, 2121 Rose street; Joseph James, engineer, 714 Duff street; Sheedrick Fields, merchant, 2825 Webster avenue; Milus Sales, laborer, 2307 Bedford avenue; W. B. Shorter, business man, 2122 Wylie avenue; Augustus Hargrove, merchant, 3 McClaren street; and York Powell, merchant, 2316 Wylie avenue. UNDER OBSERVATION. The bank had been under observation by the State Department of Banking since last July, when the directors were notified to take proper steps to protect the depositors. It was at this time that the directors decided to ask for the resignation of Rev. Hunter as president. It was rumored that there was a shortage of several thousand dollars, that the bank had not been efficiently managed, and that, if it survived, drastic reorganization would be necessary. PROZEN ASSETS. It is said by those who are close to the bank that the main cause of its difficulties, said to from inefficient management, was indiscreet debbling in real estate. Aside from this, it is reported that Rev. Hunter had withdrawn several thousands of dollars from the bank to finance the Pittsburgh American. It is alleged that this shortage was made good by a transfer of funds of Ebenezer Church to the bank's account and giving the church a note against the Pittsburgh American. Combined with these causes was the announcement of Dr. Austin of his intention to leave Pittsburgh and take up the pastorate of Pilgrim Baptist Church in Chicago. Many of the depositors of the bank were members of Roy. Austin's church, who had put their money in the bank on account of his connection with it. It is believed that when these depositors learned that he was preparing to leave they went to the bank to withdraw their funds. Frank W. Jackson, Special Deputy Banking Secretary, has been named receiver for the Steel City Banking Co. by Peter G. Cameron, State Secretary of Banking. Jackson will take charge next week, at the same time, will continue as receiver for the defunct Carnegie Trust Co. of which he has had charge since its closing, last April. R. M. Ewing was made special counsel to Mr. Jackson.

McLean in a message read Wednesday night at the Institute for Negro Welfare Workers, in session here. Unable to be present, the Governor sent his message to the meeting.

C., Jan. 18.—Mrs. Bettle Sanders, aged 82 years, risked her life early Sunday morning to save several small children from perishing in the flames when her home was destroyed by fire, according to police reports.

Here, the Negro understands the white race, and the white race understands him. Likewise, the shortcomings of both races are better understood than in any other section of our country. "It is an interesting feature that in North Carolina, fewer Negroes find cause to leave than from any other Southern state. I believe that this is due to the splendid cooperation that has existed between the races for so long. I believe, likewise, that the work you are engaged in is responsible in no small measure for this splendid co-operation. The continuance of this policy is the greatest hope, not only for your race, but for the natural and active development and progress of our state as a whole."

The Tenth Crusade In less than two years the colored babies of the United States raised more than $31,000 to fight for their own future. Such a thing was never before done in the history of the world—such a fight by colored mothers against their oppressors of their future. In 1924 they raised about $11,000 and in 1925 more than $20,000. We do not know the exact figure, for in a few cases the share of the money retained in the local Branch treasury of the N. A. A. C. P. was not reported. We call "The Tenth Crusade." There were eight crusades in the Middle Ages and in 1922 the Colored Women of America conducted what Dr. Dufols called "The Ninth Crusade" and raised about $15,000 to fight chinching. Early in 1924 the hanks of colored mothers began "The Tenth Crusade" "will not cease till colored babies cease or till their repression ceases. Every branch of the Association and every group interested in its work that has not yet had a contest, should conduct one early in the year. All contests in previous years can repeat them this year. There are always new babies. Detroit, Mich., held two contests in 1923—one in May and the other in December—and the two in June and July branches had contests, both in 1923 and 1925.

SAVE Yourself Your Health Your Clothes TIME MANHATTAN LAUNDRY SERVICE 118 EAST 199th ST. NEW YORK Harlem 3377-8-9 NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JAN, 20, 1926 HOW FOODS CAUSE DISEASE By JOHN A. DIAZ. CHAPTER II Natural Foods and Moderate Eating Prevent Disease. The most important gift of Nature is food. The growth of man, from the tiny germ or cell to adulthood, to the hour of dissolution, depends on the food he digests and the activity of man's body is maintained by his food. The energy he exerts and the heat he generates are derived from his food intake. But the food must be of proper quality, and the inefficiency or excessiveness of food on one hand, and the inferiority or worthlessness of food on the other hand are, paradoxical as it sounds, responsible for about 70 percent of food encounters. The statement is startling but it is true. Food is the most aused and misused gift of the Creator at the disposal of man. Of the food commences when we eat too much; when we eat food that is devitalized—that is lacking in those elements essential to thoroughly nourish the body—when we eat food that is devitalized—that is failing so we fall to formerly masticate it. Before the British Association for the Advancement of Science, Sir David C. Bruce, Chairman of the Lister Institute of Preventive Medicine, declared, *savage living on the natural fruits of the earth and the chase, knows no deficiency disease. It is only when man begins by artificial means to polish his rice, whiten his flour and tn his bees, vegetables that the trouble begins.* After reading this, the average reader still thinks that refined or denatured, devitalized, decomposed foods, and foods that are omasaculated, tinctured, medicated, deodorized, death pickled, sulted and vinegarized cannot make him sick. He will not think that they are the cause of his constipation, to which more than a hundred and one lilis are tracable, of hisache, toothache, and indigestion No wonder the American people are spending more than $500,000,000 a year for drugs to overcome the lack of quality diet. No wonder over 500,000 children under 10 years of age die yearly in the United States. No wonder through sickness England loses $750,000,000 per year. No wonder $750,000,000 per year. And how many hundreds are idle because of sickness or indifference to the Laws of Nature! -Millions of people who neglect their stomachs, and as a result demand that they be paid with their very lives for their crass ignorance and inexcusable negligence. Prominent men of the country who have studied most of the most important one—human nutrition, they reached in this science only IMPROVE YOUR BEAUTY W I T H Miss Lyda D.

As a result of their gross ignorance of the fundamental principles of nutrition, they succumbed to the fallacious, deictic conventionality of so-called modern civilization. I head the list of prominent, useful men of the country who paid for their dietetic errors with the name of President Harding. William J. Bryan paid for his gluttony, Percy D. Haughton, renowned football coach, paid the price of the violation of Nature's laws regarding nutrition. Charles Murphy, boss of Tammany Hall paid for his gastronomical errors. Countless others who made similar errors have paid. The average individual ents too much. It is because he is ignorant of the effects of foods. Overeating lowers the vitality and the resistance to disease. It weakens the human frame. It is productive of fermentation in the stomach and bowels. It causes hyper-acidity, one of the forerunners of dyspepsia (indigestion). It produce carbonic acid gas, vinegar, alcohol and other harmful chemical materials, which poison the blood. More people die from over-eating than from starvation. Thomas Cogan, a physician, published a book about 300 years ago entitled The Haven. The Haven diet he says: "Use a measure in eating that thou maist live long; and if thou wilst be in health, then hold thine hands." Before Cogan's book was published, Lewis Cornaro, an ardent advocate of the benefits of diet, specializes in matters of diet, advocated the simple diet which served for the nourishment of the oldest peoples of Egypt, Syria, Greece, and the Romans when they were at the height of their prosperity in the longest longevity, better health and greater comfort of mind and body. Dr. Daniel Sagar in his "Art of Living in Good Health" says: "we eat or drink for health or ill-health. Explain as in which disease can occur in the human body. "Aside from surgery and midwifery the practice of medicine for the most part revolves about the stomach. While medical science causes all diseases, at bottom all diseases are alike. Poisonous principles are thrown into the blood and the result is disease. There are several hundred organs and tissues in the body, each one of which has a name to a disease; but while the names of diseases are different, yet the cause which produces them is generally the same over-eating, which produces auto-intoxication, self-poisoning, or old age or disease, call it what you will. The conditions which produce Bright's disease will also APEX PRODUCTS The World's best Hair Preparations ACQUITS WANTED MAKE ALL ORDERS RETURN TO THE APEX HAIR CO.

It is a travesty on Nature's laws to hear man, standing before his fellowmen with dyspepsia, amnesia, and dyspnea by yelling, feet, preaching salivation for some future state and at the same time denying his body. Whan God made man, He made his physical as Physical, his spiritual as He made the laws that govern both. Sin is a violation of law, whether it be a violation of the law of the physical being, or the law of the spiritual being, since both are from the same source. The result of the violation of the law of physical being. Spiritual disease is the result of violation of the law of the spiritual being. We teach that medical practitioners for the salvation of the soul; but who are preaching for the salvation of the body? One of the most perverse, hurtful medical traditions is that no person may appear to have any person occasionally until that person is seriously sick. I am convinced that man can change his whole physical, mental and moral aspect by working for and demanding the help of life by sitting down to a table of denatured food, prepared as a result of centuries of ignorant habits, brought about by a desire to produce something different from our neighbors, and only for the purpose of nourishment.

It ‘eas In honor of this Negro that the colt was named. Dr. Marius Johnson, famous ex- plorer, sclentlat and game hunter, ‘owas the colt. which {8 now at Del mont Park. being prepared by Max Ufrsch for the races here nevt spring. Dr, Johnson (s exceptionally fond ot this young thoroughbred. Not because he 1s a brother to the fa- tious Sarazen; uot because be ts an exceptionally fite looking young horse. ‘The famous explorer 10 fond of all horses, especially thorough- breds. But his aifection for them Js mild compared to thag he bolds tor the poor half civilized African ‘Negro AMiratel. ‘That Dr. Johnson ts alive to-day fs becaise of this Negro, Mirafel saved his lite: saved him from one of the most cruel deaths Im- uginable; saved him trom being de- voured by a frenzied lion in an African jungle. ‘While exploring and hunting tn the African wilds in 1918 with the Paul J. Rainey expedition Dr. Johnson came suddenly ugon a wiant loness. He frightened her And she began to charge.” A mas of undounded courage and an ex- perfenced hunter. Pr. Johnson was aaqual to the emergency. He litte ‘his gun quickly and fired, and fired accurately. The Hones ‘staggered & fow feet and went down—dend. ‘As she fell Dr. Johnson stool still thrilled and elated, but a Dit nerv: ous from his narrow escape. Be. fore he had a chance to lower his gun another shot rang out. Tt startled him. He looked around and saw Iying almost at bis fcet & aetond dead giant lion. The shot he had heard had killed this fellow. It had come from Mirafel's un just as the ferocious beast was bout to spring on Dr. Johnson. Miratel was Dr. Johnson's Fun bearer and guide during the ex. pedition. He knew tho African jungles pretty well and warned his master that morning that he was tn or near a ion’s den. It was Mon's den the hunter was seek: (ng and he forged on. For half an hour before he ran acroes the Voness he had not sean Mirafel. We assumed hin gun bearer was nearby but he didn't know exactlr shere. But when Dr. Johnson fired Mirafel was only a few feet amar. Halt hidden by @ rock he had his mun trained on the lioness and was about to ahont simultansousiy with the explorer when he sa® the glant male Tien charging (rom the rear. th a flash the Negro rwitched his run and fired. Tis aim was per- fect and the lion went down in Tenn than a second after his mate had fallen trom the Doctor's bullet. Mirafel a Courageous Man. Dr. Johason instets Mlratel was @ bero—oue of the most faithrul and couragsois men he ever knew. Ue says bis dusky friend realized that a shot less accurate than the ‘one he fired meant death to him ‘8 well as bis master. And that be realized, too, he could have escaped Wis possible death by running Away if he so deuired. ‘Dr. Johnson bas told his triends that that Negro bas a heart of wold, and that ever and always he will remember him as a brave ond true and trustworthy fellow. The explorer has sect bim gifts and tokens of friendship often and ot- fered to bring him to this country. But Mirafel preferred the life of the jungle. ‘When Dr. Johnson ot the colt by High Time and Rush Box he didn't name him Mirafel tmmedt- ately, Even though he was a fell made youngster atid q full brother to Mra, W. K. Vanterbilt's cham: pion of 1924 and the conqueror of “the French star Epinard, be de aired to withhold tho name. He wanted to know moro about the colt, and declared that unless be fave evidence of having speed and courage he would not be called after the man who bad seved his Ufe, In his opinion the name of Mirafel was too good to be called by & cheap plater. Colt Named After Trial. Max Hirsch tried the colt ast fail and he showed spood and acted as it he were going to develop into a nice horse. The noted trainer Impronsed on Dr, Johnson thet Yearling trinls are often deceptive dnd Aectared he could not vouch for hin greatness. But the fact to take a chance with the name of his friend and be sent it along to the Jockey Club for registration. Sportsmen and horsemen in all parts of the country, especially in Kentucky, have heard the story of Miratel, and all are rooting that the colt named after such & cour ageous fellow will make good. “Mirafel, the colt, is not # cheat: nut ike his famous brother. He fs a bas. but he is marked somewhat the same, Ho haa the same white ‘stripes on his face and two white fogs, ‘Hirach says he is the tmage of the immortal Lexington, He says he and several veteran horae- mea learned thie by comparing him with photographs of the champlon ‘of seventy-five years ago. Mirafel, lke Sarazen, has several strains of the blood of Lexiugion coursing ‘through his veins.

Following this study, speakers were sent to the various locals to discuss with the unions the importance of the Negro committee of organizing Negro workers in trade unions was formed and, on May 23, a conference was called at Arlington Hall, attended by delegates from various unions. The conference not only endorsed the admission of Negro workers in the ranks of organized labor, but formed the Negro Industrial Committee of Negro Workers, opening an office with an executive secretary and an assured budget for the first year." The report of Mr. Reid, secretary of the Industrial Department, showed that the new openings made included saleswomen, stationary engineer, finisher in paper mill, electrical tester and sign painter.

Senator Cole Blease Again in Limelight WASHINGTON, Jan. 16—Members of the diplomatic corps were reported aroused to-day by the speech in the Senate yesterday by Senator Cole Blease, of South Carolina, attacking diplomatic immunity. Protests were chiefly heard among attaches of the Latin-American embassies and legations. No formal protests have been received by the State Department. Senator Blease's attack grew out of the arrest here several nights ago of several young men and women in a cafe charged with violation of the prohibition law. Attaches of several of the embassies were in the cafe with liquor in their possession, but were not taken by the police. The words of" Senator Blease which aroused the diplomats particularly were: "If the authorities keep on right in this great city of Washington allowing people to live most disgraceful lives, to debauch if they possibly can the women of this country, to feed liquor to the women of this country, and claim protection of foreign embassies, I test them. Senators, that you know take the laws and are going to be responsible when the common people of the country rise and take the law into their own hands. Why has not the cotton-mill boy the same right (to carry liquor around in his packet) as some little half-Negro from a foreign country coming over here should have?"

AN HONEST DEMOCRAT'S CONFESSION (Washington Correspondence.) WASHINGTON—In his recent special, delivered at the Iroquois Club's Jackson Day dinner at Chicago, Ill., Governor Albert Ritchie, Democrat, of Maryland, explained the attitude of the domi- nance of the democratic Party, when he said, "Good citizen of the South feel that refusal to obey the Fifteenth Amendment of the U. S. Constitution involves no REAL ISSUE and is no violation of their INDIVIDUAL CONSCIENCE." This very trunk admission by a probable candidate for the Democ- ratic Presidential nomination in 1928 was made while the Democ- ratic Governor was preaching the doctrine that "the preservation of the transcended such questions as the transgender such disarmament." It was a Democratic message in the language of a Democrat, he said. But it was more than that to the Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, New Jersey, Ohio and New York colored voters who have been flirting with the Democratic party under the illusion that the leopard would change its spoils. To them it was the message of despair—one that will be heard only once that, in the innermost mind of the national Democratic Party the Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution, and, in fact, any sacred part thereof which involves the united freedom of United States citizens, falls into a second or third place when compared, by Democrats, with individual consciences or the final consciences of States' rights represented by the party of Andrew Jackson and Woodrow Wilson. Consternation should follow in the wake of even a slight degree of thoughtfulness on the part of colored Democrats who can understand just what Governor Ritchie said when they recall that their misfitting activities are the mistaken results of the "smoke-screen" so carefully constructed by such progressive Democrats of the North as Messra. Al Smith, Taggart, and Brennan, who have been up upon a sufficient Negro deflectivity from the Republican Party to seize Democratic success in such States as Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Illinois, New Jersey and Missouri. Leaving individual consciences, such as Governor Ritchie so loquently describes, to interpret and enforce the U. S. Constitution would present the same wild fanatic civil government as that which has been so long held in the solid Democratic area for which the Maryland Governor essays to speak. Under this plan the Governor forgot to picture just what would happen to Congress and the other instrumentalities of good government so wisely established for all—not some—of the Constitution. enforcement is one of the aims of the Republican Party, and no one knows this any better than the colored voters who, under the enforced Fifteenth Amendment, in Republican areas, do business with the ballot-box on election day, rather than merely read at the Democrat as their brethren do the Democrat in Governor Ritchie says, "Individual consciences" supersed the Constitution.

But what are the facts? The fact is that of the colored men who have taken the highest degree which American universities give, a third of them are in legal medical dental, and musical professions have none or very few. The thing which makes it appear that very few educated men are in the ministry is the fact that the number of ministers is very large. There are at least 60,000 of them. The church has tried to cover the whole field of Negro religious assah, and to do so has made a great number of men who are poorly educated. It has done this on the theory that a poorly educated preacher with a good heart is better than no preacher whatever. Meantime it has tried to meet the demand for educated preachers. The result is the race has in number about as many preachers as it needs. Only it must educate them. Contrast the state has not permitted the need for lawyers to be met with any except educated lawyers. So, while nearly every Negro community has its preacher it has not its lawyer. Now it is a fact that we have less educated lawyers than preachers, for there are far above 2,000 educated Negro preachers in the country. In other words the law is held out to the young Negro and the ministry and more educated men and women have entered the ministry than have entered the law. This is not generally realized because every cation, while you might meet five lawyer you meet has some preachers with practically no education before you meet one with education. Thus, we have put our attention upon the uneducated teacher. But take this city for example. We have in Philadelphia about fifteen well educated preachers of fair color. We can easily name more than fifteen well educated preachers, who equal or surpass in training the lawyers. This is true in nearly every other city. When you take the large number of cities in which there are no colored lawyers and one or two educated ministers you see more educated Negroes have gone to the ministry than to law. Furthermore, if we take Philadelphia as an example ministers that are a larger portion of men who are educated for the law among us are not practicing the law than of those educated for the ministry but not in the ministry. We do not make this comparison with any invidious intent. We only point out the facts. We believe they will encourage those who are interested in encouraging the education of Negro preachers. Our problem is to educate 45,003 Negro preachers. And our other problem is to get 45,000 Negroes for lawyers and to educate them. SCHOOL OF RELIGION HEALTH CONFABS WASHINGTON, D.

(Ackh) DuBois in Boston Speech Bares Duplicity of Present Civilization DuBois in Boston Speech Bares Duplicity of Present Civilization BOSTON, Mass., Jan. 18—Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the "Crisis," was the speaker at the Ford Hall Forum on Sunday. Taking as his subject "The Hypocrisy of White Folks," he bared the duplicity of present day white civilization—governments, religion, society. The Klan were excoriated. He admitted, however, that there was an element of hypocrisy among his own people. Dr. DuBois had no panaceas to offer for the "shocking" state of affairs. In part he said: "There has come the time in the history of the United States and the world and the history of forward-looking movements, to be able to look the truth in the face. Not to be afraid to show that the church has failed miserably, that an organization which was supposed to say "Peace on earth" was found yelling for war in the worst manner. That, while we have done something for the freedom of women, we haven't begun the job yet. We have been doing something that comes to black children. That, so far as the distribution of all wealth and wages is concerned, you cannot imagine any country doing it with more lack of sense than the people of this country. Here we are building up people with so many millions that they can't count them and, on the other hand, we have people struggling for decent clothes and decent food. This country has been struggling for a country that has boned democracy—to the kind of treatment that Negroes are getting in the United States, not yesterday—but today? "Here, for instance, are my friends, the Catholics, with whom I have been closely associated since the beginning of the Ku Klux Klan. They have been taken in to prison for 400 years, and today there are five colored graduates of Catholic colleges and four priests. But if we have failed, why not acknowledge it? The Negro has been shut out from American democracy and with him has been shut out vast numbers of other What are you going to do about it? I no panacea about that, but the first thing is the truth." "Hypocrisy is defined as feigning to be what you are not. And what the leaders of white civilization say is: 'Pretend that the world is what it is not, let it become worse than it is.' We are not perfect; we are terribly imperfect. Things that form the shape of fear lay upon white civilization continually. They say it is all right to talk about Democracy on the Fourth of July or any other day when you are talking to a mass of people, but you can't carry out Democracy without having chimes. We have got a rule this country by inside the walls of our country, and do not have any country. It is the strong belief of large numbers of men in their own circles they say it right along. Once in a while it gets so large within them that they burst into the newspaper and say it. They are afraid of the masses of men. "In the matter of wealth there is nobody in the United States that for a moment would say that the wealth of his country or income of this or any other civilized country is divided according to any reasonable rule. All the people who are wealthy, who own property and hold land, are getting enough to eat, don't want any disturbance of the present method of wealth, because if it is they may suffer and, rather than that, they are content with the present distribution of wealth. They know the poverty of the world, the curious sort of way in which we reward inventors by giving their inventions to people who did not do them at all. As soon as somebody talks too loudly about the wealth of the population, they mediate shut up by the police or other ways of making people keep still when they are talking about wealth. "As to the status of women: are you going to let them be free, have the same kind of freedom that others enjoy? Your daughters might run off with a Jewish song writer; or your sisters may marry a colored man. You have got to see to it that they remain the property of a particular kind of white man; if you are going to have your own families spoiled, this innate heritage of superability stretched out among those masses of Morons, or you are going to have trouble. When you are talking in the South you are going to be slapped in the face by chivalrous Southerners. "In the North what is it that you are afraid of in regard to children? There are not so many opportunities and places open to them. Suppose your child had a particular genius. You want it to push forward; you want it to have a chance. "There are certain families in Boston who belong on the Harvard crew—and they get there. They don't want Ily Einstein. In Mr. Morgan's bank you will not have new people, nameless people, or people with impossible names. "Take the matter of courtesy! How far can you afford to be courteous to everybody. If you bow politely, they will be calling on you; they are expecting an invitation to dinner. "In Boston we were trained to take off our hats. When I went South at the aye of 17, I took of my hat once. "There is no kind of courtesy. in the way in which you take care of the man you don't want to win. In the South you don't have duels between the races. When you do have duels they don't get into the newspapers. But what you have people jumping on one man and killing him with any kind of cruelty that you can think of. "Take again this matter of religion; this matter of practising the Golden Rule and the rule of sacrifice. "When it comes to the lesser breeds we send missionaries, and that is because we are used to sending them, and we send them for other reasons, too. Nothing is more important than keeping peaceful with this world. You have got to send Christians around the world to tell other people of Christianity. Just imagine the Africans, who are a simple, exceedingly logical people. We have got to the place where logic never interferes with what we want to do in America. But we have people who preach the "Prince of Peace," of treating other people as you would treat them. But we have the matter of fact, can you blame Africa, China, and Japan for laughing at Christianity? "The idea of people talking of the 'Prince of Peace', then fighting for four years. They are voluntarily adopting hypocrisy because they think it is going to advance the kind of civilization that they stand for. You must not say that in any respect modern white civilization is a failure, because if you do it it is going to decrease the respect in which the white race is held throughout the world. "If this way of using hypocrisy was a success, then there would be a great deal to be said in favor of the kind of people we have to stop economizing? You have mobs and lynchings. You that are standing for the 'safeguarding of this particular civilization are surprised and astounded at the people who help you on. The organizations that grow up and sweep over the country." -From the Boston Chronicle. Past Noble Fathers' Assn.

Carey, of Chicago, was elected to succeed Bishop W. W. Beckett, deceased, as Chairman of the General Conference Commission of the M. E. Church. This commission is to all all committees for the next quadrennial meeting of the A. M. E.'s when bishops and general officers will be elected and the entire organic law of the church considered for revision. The chairmanship which usually goes to a bishop is regarded as one of the most powerful positions in the church. Bishop Carey was a member and now becomes the new appointee to fill the vacant place on the Commission, which meets next month to choose a place for this meeting. The last conference was held in Louisville. Six bishops are to be elected at the next conference. . Mother Zion Church Beginning with the Sunrise Prayer Meeting at 6 a. m., Mother Zion Church had interesting events' all day Sunday. Dr. W. N. Holt, the Evangelist, preached the morning sermon. Thirty people came to the altar and were invited to his invitation and twenty-three of whom united with the church. Dr. Brown was the preacher at the Junior Church services in the Lecture Room at 10:30 a. m. Special Evangelistic Meeting was held in the Sunday School at 2 o'clock. Dr. 3:50 a. m. Dr. Holt conducted a meeting for women only. Mine, Lulu Robinson Jones and Miss. N. E. Holt sang songs. Dr. Brown preached the annual sermon the Clubmen's Beneficial League in the evening. He referred to the recent purchase of two apartment houses by its members at the cost of $77,000. "It is a most helpful thing, and ought to receive the wholehearted support of all or its members. It also should increase the membership of the League. If there are any men present tonight who are not members, I would advise that you seek to become so at once." They left a donation of $50.10. Dr. Holt will preach every night Dr. Holt will preach every night during the week. Assembyman: Abraham Granate, the Lyceum, dorm at 4 n. m. His subjects are "Housing" and "Extension of Rent Lawa." Others on the program will be Miss Harriet B. Johnson, soprano; Mr. George Royla, baritone soloist; Miss Gladys Cooke Canada mezzo soloist; and Miss Alicia McKenzie Music by the Lyceum Choral, Mrs. Bertha Des Verney, director. Rush Church Notes The activities of the Junior Church continue to grow, and the interest of the younger people is becoming more strongly manifested each day, particularly at the Sunday morning services and the Saturday evening class of music. This institution is being conducted on the same scale as the Church proper in that it contains the same auxiliaries and assistants to the pastor as the larger organization. The success of the Junior Church depends a great deal upon the co-operative spirit of the parents and guardians with that of Dr. Oliver and his co-workers. The Junior Church Choir has advanced fully and guardedly a short period. Mrs. Helen Walsh is now at the head of this work, is training those young people in the fundamental principles of music. The Junior Choir is fully vested and its members number about 35. "Life's Investment." 1st Tim. 4:8. was the subject of Dr. Oliver's sermon at eleven o'clock Sunday morning. "At this time - of the year," he said, "when the average dealer is taking inventory of his stock, it is a good thing for all of us to take inventory of life and see if we are investing in that which brings us the best results. The first item is the investment. The interests derived from this investment would be the best obtainable. It is necessary, in order to receive proper results in business deals, to include God in the firm—a silent partner—yet one whose advice has always proven correct. "God's endorsement on our life's note means the best security to be had. It is a mark of respect. for a man in the business world to also be concerned in God's field of labor. We must invest, in order to do more and better industry." Mr. John Eady, pupil of Prof. Tarrant, sang. "A lesson on the Magnitude of Faith" was given by Dr. Oliver at the evening service. The Senior Choir will present a musical program Sunday, January 31. St. Mark's M. E. Church The morning and evening services of St. Mark's M. E. Church were well attended. At both services the message was delivered by Rev. J. L. Thompson, D.D., pastor of the R. E. Jones Temple M. E. Church. Rev. Thompson is the evangelist who is conducting the revival services in St. Mark's Church. The revival services will be held every evening during the month of January (except Saturday) at 8 P.M. At the Sunday-school hour the funeral services for Miss Odessa Spencer were held. Miss Spencer was a teacher in the Junior Department of the Sunday school. The Epworth League is holding a series of discussions on Mexico, under the direction of Dr. Robinson, pastor. Salem M. E. Church Sunday's services, including the two sermons of Dr. Albert E. Hughes, were an added impetus to the annual revival, now going on in church. During the day thousands of people took part in the worship. Dr. Hughes persuaded thirty-eight persons to join the church, ten of them being new converts. Dr. Hughes, the only colored member of the Board of Home Missions and Church Extension of the M. E. Church, is a life long friend of Dr. Cullen and a favorite with Salem Church. The object of the Lyceum service was to reflect the spirit of the revival which is going on. A very long meeting was the result. William Stirred great dumps with his rival songs. Joseph Phillips made a talk on the freedom that comes with knowing the truth. Another touching part of the meeting was the song service led by the Choral Society. Rev. Cecil LaGrange, a former member of Salem, now a pastor in Unitown, Pa., prescheduled an evening sermon last week. This will be the last week of the revival. Two of the closing features will be the young people's meeting. Friday evening, and the meh's meeting-Sunday afternoon. Among those reported sick are: Mrs. Lillian Groomes, Sloan's Hospital; Henry Koontz, 60 E. 134th street, and Mrs. Louise Roberts, 135 W. 138th street. Obituary THORNE—Cecil C.

Va.—Dr. G. Bowens, long since an expert in the Negro social welfare of Virginia and at present the director of Colored Activities in a gigantic factory and millwork project in Nanesmond County. Va. has issued the call for 2,000 industrious colored families, the heads of which are skilled as millwrights, electricians, machinists, plumbers, steamfitters and skilled mechanics, to locate permanently in Nanesmond, where employment at good wages and pleasant home surroundings await them. This giant project represents the money and the confidence of promoters who believe that American Negro labor is as good as any that can be found. It is the call of opportunity for Negro artisans who are prepared to make good in an industrial project of great promise. The fact that Dr. Bowens, who has labored long and faithfully in his own state for the welfare and work opportunity of his own people, is the prime mover in bringing about this chance, leaves no doubt that it is gifteded and a long looked for opening for men who can deliver the goods.

C., Jan. 18.—In protest against the threatened removal of Captain Arthur Newman from the post of principal of Armstrong High School, the pupils went on strike at nine o'clock Friday morning. The walkout was orderly, and the movement of the pupils from the vicinity of the building was even more quiet than is normal. Also, it was noticed by the teachers that the students were not entering classes and the principal was so informed. He called an assembly, and after directing the pupils to go to classes after they had held a brief session of the Student Council, he turned the meeting over to the council expecting them to Get a lot of time and prepare for work. Instead, the pupils simply, by a well understood prearrangement or by a spontaneous agreement, walked out of the building. CONFERENCE ON RELIEF FOR FARMERS WASHINGTON — Colored farmers are generally interested in the fourth national cooperative marketing conference that is being held in Washington this week under the auspices of the National Council of Farmers' Cooperative Marketing Associations. Those who are interested in the progress of the colored farmers hope that some plan will be adopted that will permit them to participate more fully in the benefits of the cooperative organizations.

String Quartet and Minnie Brown in Concerts BY CLEWELAND G. ALLEN A large audience greeted The Negro String Quartet, Sunday afternoon, at the Queen Congregational Church, and heard one of the lovely concerts rendered this season. The string quartet is made up of four accomplished players. They began their program with Haydn's Quartet in D Major, and gave numbers from Pochon, Boccharim, Foster-Pochon, and Coleridge Taylor. The string quartet was assisted by a string Minnie Pinko soprano, who was never heard to more enjoyable advantage. Miss Andrades Lindsay gave fine support and sympathy as an singer. The numbers of the Negro String Quartet are Felix Weir, 1st violin; Arthur Boyd, 2nd violin; Hall Johnson, viola; and Marlon Cumbo, viola. The Negro String Quartet will be heard on this evening of February 11 at Salem, M. E. Church, assisted by Miss Abbie Mitchell. Canada's Indian Culture The entire Pacific Coast of Canada—from the Eskimo area on the north to California on the south—was the home of many aboriginal tribes of Indians. They were of no less than five great linguists, stocks, each differing from the other as much pathos as to the same. From the Slavic and each embracing numerous distinct languages. The culture was characterized by the following features: an extensive use of cedar products; an independence on the sea as the principal means of transport and for simple foods, such as salmon and clams; an overwhelming desire for rights and privileges of various sorts, to be known as rich and important and as belonging to several societies, and an intricate art found only in this area. The principal vehicles of this work wearing, tazingo, painting and wearing, the were as elsewhere, inferior and superior artists. The best of this art is appreciated by our own greatest artists; it has already contributed to our industrial arts and will do so to an even greater extent in the future. For this reason it has become of economic importance. In the finer examples of the art of these people the lines are usually shaded and flow from one element into another at a tangent. The figures are not apt to be circles or ovals, but one side usually runs in a different direction from the opposite and each curve generally differs from its neighbor as the result of its stenosis. Stenosis and patterns were employed to guide the painter and weaver. —Southern Worthington. LEG SORES ARE CURABLE.

In the meantime, it would do well for prospective striking students, if any there are at Howard this year, and any other paddlers in the making pot of dissension on Howard Hill, to consider the thin ice on which Howard is found skating each mid-Winter and forthwith resolve to help the helpers by sawing educational and co-operative wood to the end that off the South Carolina rocks and be what it ought to be, both within and without. Any other course is ultra virus, so far as Negro education is concerned. Travelin' "Souf" AROBUST looking Negro youth of perhaps 23 years of age slowly entered the Jim Crow coach at Washington, seated himself beside me, drew a dream book from his right hip pocket and proceeded to make himself comfortable. He was well dressed, and a roll of yellow bills which he carelessly drew from his pocket at intervals convinced me that he was at least temporarily prosperous. "Traveling South?" I ventured to ask, offering him my morning paper. "Yeah," he responded quietly. "Going back home, I guess?" I followed up, as I glanced at a headline which said that zero weather and the high cost of living had brought about a Negro stampede back to Dixieland. "Yeah," he answered, as quietly as beform. "How far are you coming from?" I continued, determined to make my uncommunicative companion talk. "Started last night," he said Mrs. Mary T. Leddy, wife of John E. Leddy, attorney, brought suit in the Supreme Court last week against the Pullman Company to recover $25,000, alleging that she was assaulted by a porter on a New York Central train, June 27 last. Mrs. Leddy says she was occupying a lower berth on the train. She left her berth a short time, she alleges, and on her return discovered the porter had opened her baggage and taken her jewel case. She accused him of attempting to steal it, she said, and he grabbed her and tried to prevent her from leaving the car to get aid. She broke away from him, she alleged, and later succeeded in getting her property back. The defendant filed a general denial FLA. CONVICTS WHITE MAN OF MURDER ORLANDO, Fla., Jan. 18.—The first white man ever convicted of murdering a colored man in Florida went on record here last week. Heywood Registere, leader of a criminal band, was convicted of killing Isaac Peoples. First Lynching of 1926 (From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.) Mississippi was the stigma of being the more of than one-third of all the lynchings the curbed in United States in 1925, but it is the news of feverish real estate activities, the news comes of the first lynching in 1925, panied by other reports of race troubles. At Fla. last Monday a mob seized a Negro, who flicers were taking in an automobile to be idle but before the identification had been made lynched him. It was not mentioned that the flicers made any earnest attempt to protect the one from the mob's attack. Following this barricade killing on the day of the new year, three Negro organizers Tampa have appealed to the city government protection against "night riders" tobacco, which the night riders was one of the riders behind and Tennessee some years ago, but the moiety of real estate agents, who would for Negroes to sell their holdings and make their subdivisions, is given as the guiding impulse these Tampa marauders. One aged Negro on the burning of a cross before his home and warning to leave the city in twenty-four hours same band, he said, set fire to another N house. Such reports somewhat dim the prospect racial difficulties, which have undergone so a decrease in the past two years, will still decline in 1925. Dropping from forty-three to sixteen in 1929, the number of lynchings that minimum in 1925. As a result reduction might be expected, if officers are public should at all times take a firm stand of those acts of violence and cowardice, as we against any kind of agitation that is design attr up racial animosities. Being the first state to demand the punishment of its perpetrators (From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat). Mississippi has the stigma of being the scene of more than one third of all the lynchings that occurred in the United States in 1840, and in from Florida, of feverish real estate activities, that the news comes of the real branch in 1925, accompanied by other reports of race troubles. At Ocala, Fla., last Monday a mob seized a Negro, whom officers were taking in an automobile to be identified, but before the identification had been made they lynched him. It was not mentioned that these officers made any earnest attempt to protect this prisoner from the mob's attack. Following this barbaric killing on the eleventh day of the new year, three Negro organizations in Tampa have appealed to the city government for protection against "night riders." Not the price of tobacco, which at the outset was one of the reasons behind the "night riders" spreading terror in Kentucky and Tennessee some years ago, but the animosity of real estate agents, who would force the Negroes to sell their holdings and make large subdivisions, to be guiding impulses of these maneuvers. One aged Negro told of the burning of a cross before his home and of a warning to leave the city in twenty-four hours. The same band, he said, set fire to another Negro's house. Such reports somewhat dim the prospect that racial difficulties, which have undergone so marked a decrease in the past two years, will still further decline in 1926. Dropping from forty-three in 1923 to sixteen in 1924, the number of lynchings remained at that minimum in 1926. A still further reduction might be expected if officers and the police were to be more effective in those acts of violence and cowardice, as well as against any kind of agitation that is designed to stir up racial antimotions. Being the first state to have a lynching in 1926, Florida should be the first state to demand the punishment of its perpetrators.

Gordon Gugickisberg, his righty brother, had that the great need of the moment was an educational institution which could meet the highest and broadest needs of Africans, and one whore the leaders of the race to head education, and an education head education, and an education the heart and hand also. The Gold Coast Government has, therefore, devoted half a million pounds to the foundation of the Prince of Wales College, Achimota, which, I believe, is the most significant thing in the whole of Africa today. They have appointed the Rev. Alec Fraser, who in Ceylon had shown at Trinity College, Kandy, that the true public-school spirit can flourish in the East, to be Achimota's principal, and during the past year he has been my privilege as a staff of his staff to the college and the other white officers in getting a thorough knowledge of the country and of formulating plane for the working of the college. We have not only been laying plans. We have very literally been preparing the grounds of this university college, which cover an area of four square miles on one of the most beautiful and commanding sites on the Gold Coast. With some fifty teachers selected from the five continents of Europe, Asia, Africa, America, and Australia, and with accommodation for a large number of students, will be the aim of Achimota to correct the mistakes which have been made in the educational systems of Africa. It will take the African boy and girl at the age of six and carry them through the kindergarten to the university courses.-Dr. J. E. K. Aggrey in the Southern Workman. Large Mid-Winter Registration at Howard WASHINGTON, D. C.-At the end of the first week of the winter quarter, Howard University finds its dormitories and classrooms crowded with 1,733 students. In the spring of 1900, the university had 1,000 have enrolled. The other departments show enormous registrations, as follows: Medicine, 227; dental, 97; pharmacy, 68; law, 88; music, 54; religion, 235. The total for the collegiate year 1925-26 exceeds that for the predecessor year by several hundred. On a point or order made by Congressman Hare, Democrat of South Carolina, on Monday, January 11, the entire appropriation for Howard University was stricken from the appropriation to the Senate where the appropriation will undoubtedly be restored. AND NOW WE HAVE "THE ONLY WHITE MAN" Jules Bennet, assistant stage manager for Lewis and Gordon's arce, "Easy Come, Easy Go," at the Bilton Theatre, who "doubles in white" as the Pullman porter in the uproarous smoking car scene, recalled yesterday that he was a New Year's that he played the only other Pullman porter role of bis career. On that occasion he officiated as genius of the whisk in a film called "Splinters," made by the old Biograph company. The picture was shot on a Great Northern train between Vancouver and Montreal, from the pulley in the world who was ever a Pullman porter on the Great Northern." declared Mr. Bennet yesterday. prejudice himself, but against the whites. The blacks were all white to him, the whites all black. Not a white witness escaped Darrow's charge of perjury. Here is an oratorical gem of characteristic ray concerning the fifty or more white witnesses in the case: "Every state witness perjured himself over and over again to send these defendants to prison. . . . Men, women and children alike have come into this court to lie. . . . They perjured themselves in favor of their noble Nordic race. . . . Every one of them lied, right down to little children." The white man who was murdered, the white neighbors, the police, the state's attorneys, the detective, the lawyer, no Negro in the case could have felt more race prejudice against the whites: this writer is willing to say that low Negroes ever have felt, or ever want to feel, a race prejudice as intense and unreasoning as that of Darrow. However, we confidently leave Darrow to the Negroes, where he wants to be, for we believe that the more intelligent American Negroes are beginning to realize the falsity of such friendship. There is in this country a deliberate and organized effort to Bolshavize the colored man. Every visitor to the recent scientific gathering of the American Negroes is assigned to the fourth street of Bolshaviz chiefs in their new crusade to arouse the yellow and black peoples of the earth in a war against white government. There are in Moscow now American Negroes being trained as Communist agents for work among their people in America. American Negroes know this and are arousing themselves to meet the situation. Let us hope they will handle it effectively. The destiny of the white race and the black race in this community is to together and together they will resist all attempts to destroy the white man's civilization which is the black man's best security. Mr. Darrow proceeded from Detroit to New York where he again spoke to Negroes. He again made sport of the "Nordic race." This in religious representative of the religious Negro cautioned the Negro against piety. "There's another thing--you're too blooming pious," he said. He counselled the Negro to form of himself a white politician, and he preached "in short, he exhibited in numerous ways that most degenerate form of race prejudice—prejudice against the race that bore him. Negroes don't protect white men who fawn upon Negroes." Colorful News Movies Colorful News Movies (Continued from Page 1.) Mrs. Leddy Accuses Porter and Sues Pullman Co. with a smile. "Got hung up in Philadelphia with the boys an' had to wait until this mornin' to buy an overcoat, he added, pointing to the good-looking uster which he had just hung on the car hook. "You don't mean to tell me you've gone through the Winter without an overcoat, have you?" I shot at him. "Hardly," he said, laughing aloud. "You see, I've been a chauffeur up in New York State and my regular coat and uniform went along with the jcb, and when I got home, I didn't have time to buy an overcoat; and it's kinder cold down coat; and so Sally writes me." "Well, well," I answered perplexely, as I tried to forego further curiosity. "Didn't quit your job, did you?" "Rure," the youth responded quickly. "I'm on my way to Jacksonville now." "Coming back?" I quizzed, as the youth turned down a page in the dream book. "Man alive, you bet I am," he replied, as he gutted the dream book back into his hip pocket. "You see, everything comes out just like Sally said, and when I had that last dream the other night, knew that I would beat it. Florida," the youth said, warming up with enthusiasm. "Been up in New York State two years. Been going to night school studying electricity.

I inquired, as he looked at me for an instant as though I had hurt his feelings. "Sally—man alive, Sally's my girl. We're going to be married next Sunday night, and she's coming to New York and study millinery," he almost shouted to me, as I sank back in the seat convinced that it's a two-to-one shot that everyone "travelin' Soul" nowadays will soon go into action. Thaddeus Stevens --- Reconstructionist EVERY colored man, woman and child in the United States should read Samuel W. McCall's "Life of Thaddeus Stevens," the reconstructionist, whom the Lancaster, Pa., district sent to the U. S. House of Representatives, as Republican leader in the House, during the Civil War and Reconstruction days. Stevens was the most bitter foe slavery in the United States ever had, and fought unruly until his death for the civil rights and full equality of the freedmen. On Stevens tombstone at Lancaster, Pa., is found the simple statement: "I repose in this quiet, secluded spot, not from any natural place, for walking, but from other cemeteries limited as to race by charter rules. I have chosen this, that I might illustrate in my death the principles which I have advocated through a long life—the equality of man before his Creator." Of late years, oppressors of Negro freedom and carping critics of proponents of Justice and Equality for the Negro have taken keen delight in throwing stones at the deceased Negro champion, the World War Griffith, the moving picture mogul, built his character, "Stoneman," in the "Birth of a Nation," from his distorted vision of Stevens. Others speak of him today with half-cooled hostility and patronizing praise. It is a blessing to read behind Daniel Gibboas (white) of Brooklyn, N. Y., who says, in a recent rebuttance to Stevens: "I was at the funeral of Thaddaeus Stevens and shall never forget that fine, strong Roman face stilled in death as all sorts of men passed his bier with bowed hands, and deep feeling." needs and we need. Steven was indeed a reconstructionist who knew that right was right. So far as black America is concerned, his name belongs on the high party with those of Lincoln, Grant and Sumner. Never before or since have we had a defender of Steven's calibre. With him, defense was offense-offense against race tyranny and intolerance. If his soul could be reincarnated today in the bosoms of a few Congressional statements, we freedom for which he gave us the fullest measure of debt from the struggling race whose goal was his goal and whose wounds were his wounds back in the days when our grandfathers were imbibing their first breath of democracy. New York Bans Secrecy SUSTAINING the Walker Anti-Klan statute and declaring that the power to declare a law unconstitutional is always exercised with reluctance, the New York Court of Appeals has decided that if the clandestine fraternity of Imperial Wizard Simmons expects to do business in the Empire State, it will be compelled to file with the Secretary of State a list of its members, a transcript of its secret oaths, and a copy of its constitution and by-laws. "The alternative," says the court, "is to unhood and disband." There were no dissenting opinions from any of the justices. In the course of its decision, the Court said : "Labor unions, college fraternities and sororities whose names are legion have received legislative approval. Have a good opinion of least threat, and has recognized as innocuous, if not excellent, the character which they claim for themselves. BUT, the Legislature may take notice of the potentialities of EVIL in secret societies, and may regulate them reasonably, without depriving the members of the liberty without due process of law." This decision, of course, has pulled all the teesh out of the Klan, which, for impatus and functioning power, depend solely upon hoods, masks and other perilous elements of secrecy. The Klan will have to fold up its tent and back out of New York State into some area which was "born in the eclipse and rigged with curces, dark." The psychology of flat-footed raterism as proposed by Empire State is altogether too strong a claim to the Knights of the Invisible Empire. On the other hand, New York residents who believe in honest-to-goodness fraternalism—and their number is legion—are already listed up in societies which, as the New York court says, have a savory reputation. Banking A. B. A. does not necessarily always stand as a symbol of the American Banking Association, for, alas, Pittsburgh awoke last Tuesday morning and found that its racial banking segment had been added to the long list of banking casualties. The Steel City Banking Company, pride of Pittsburgh, and favored child of finance, had been closed by the State Banking Department because, it was said, "it was unable to meet its obligations on account of unwise investments in mortgages and other securities." In other words, its promoters had been indulging in ANTI-BANKING ACTIVITIES. And thus is Pittsburgh plunged into financial despair, as have other leading cities, with the race's experimentation as receiving and paying tellers, investors, and manipulators of the coin of our loyal banking clients. It is said that we have not as yet mastered the banking business, though it is not our business. It is considered that very limited facilities are available to our representation. Once the writer took a university course in banking; but yet we know he is not qualified in the banking science and practice. It is up to the race to provide some means of entry into the actual practices of the banking game, plus the financial wizardry so essential to banking success, only a minute which is dependent upon taking in those through one window and paying it out to other. Our economic wealth and financial co-operation comprise the chief solvent of our banking problems. NO MARKED PESSIMISM SHOULD FOLLOW IN THE WAKEN OF THE PITTSBURGH FAILURE ANY MORE THAN IF A LAUNDRY OR A BOOTBLACK STAND WERE TO CLOSE UP FOR WANT OF COMPETENT MANAGEMENT. It's all in the most racial advancement, which only 24' little rain along with the sunshine in order that we all may know that the "Perfect Day" is still a long, long way off.

Wednesday, January 20, 1926 Social Foundations IF THE DANGERS of an iniquitous social set, such as we have in New York and most large cities, could be confined to that set "high Negro sassiety" would soon end the danger by destroying itself. But the dangers are not confined to those calling themselves the socially elite. Like an octopus, the all too prevalent corruption in Harlem social circles enmeshes the sorority girl in her teens, the college youth soon becomes its prey, the young matron and the young professional man fall afoul of the traps it sets for them. FEW INDEED are those who are able to keep their reputation intact, once they are admitted to what is known as "Harlem's best society," because it is never satisfied until it has crushed all that is elevating, all that is noble, all that is really worthwhile out of its victims, leaving nothing except the open road to degredation, shame, scandal and disgrace. ENTRANCE to Harlem's so-called socially elite groups has no basis in character. The keepers of shady houses, women of questionable reputation, degenerates of every description, men with no visible means of support, professional gamblers, and drunkards, are as readily admitted as any one else, if they have a few dollars to lavish on some charitable, civic, fraternal or church organization and are able to entertain friends in their own home or in an exclusive cabaret. HARLEM SASSIETY, as we pointed out several years ago, must not be confused with the thousands of decent people living here who are proud not to be numbered among the "elite"; who mind their own business and let the other fellow's business and his wife alone; who do not consider a hip flask of poisonous liquor indispensable to social intercourse, and who do all in their power to protect their sons and daughters from the many dens of iniquity which infest the community for the social enjoyment of a corrupt society. WHITE PEOPLE of anti-Negro tendencies have always held that the Negro has no sense of morality or shame, and while the statement is as untrue generally of the masses of Negroes as it would be of any other race, it is exemplified in Harlem by a few men and women of supposedly high standing and education, to whom our critics can point because they are well known in the community. Consequently, Harlem is constantly disgraced by the acts of this "socially elite" group and will continue to be until character is re-established as the basis of society and its varied activities. ROLAND HAYES AND SEGREGATION ROLAND HAYES appeared in a court a few days ago, when Washington newspaper reports severely criticized it that they thought was his stand on question of segregation at his Capital. Much as we like to see segregation each time it raises its own, much as it is out of place through the length and breadth of the country and especially in the Nation's Capitol. We refuse to sit idly by and seek to attempt made to besmirch one of the greatest artist the Nation has produced up to this time. WHAT it is unfair to blame Hayes condition which has been very advanced since the beginning of the institution of the late President of the Nation seems all too evident. And yet Washington and a few days later Jimore; Hayes refused to sing the discriminatory arrangements in seating of Negro patrons we visited. Those who know him do not for one minute that this was a course open to him. NON WITH THE FIGHT against prosecution! But in our fighting let us use guns on the enemy, both within, and not on our friends. ELEVATE REV. BISHOP REV. HUTCHENS C. BISHOP has handed out forty years' continuous as rector of St. Philip's Protestant Church, which is the largest body in the denomination and the healthiest Negro church in America. It has been duly heralded in the weekly press, and a dition in his honor in one of the city inclusive restaurants. OUT WHY STOP HERE? How can noble work of Rev. Bishop compete with that of other ministers, not newly colored, in the Episcopal Church America? And, why has Rev. Bishop been given an opportunity to accuse the bishopric, an honor which the distinguished clergyman ought to aspire? What more should be desired of him to prove his fitness, the highest position at the disposal of denomination? THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH in America would honor itself by raising Bishop to the bishopric. ESPASMODIC ATTEMPTS at law, agreement in the South, such as the evident a few weeks ago when Mississippi judge fined a county sheriff for failure to protect a prison mob violence, must not be used to overshadow the absolute unity of a national anti-lynching a teeth in it. What is a fine of $5 prepared to the death of an innocent at the hands of a mob? ROLAND HAYES appeared in a new roll a few days ago, when Washington newspaper reports severely criticized what they thought was his stand on the question of segregation at his Capital recital. Much as we like to see segregation opposed each time it raises its ugly head, much as it is out of place throughout the length and breadth of the country, and especially in the Nation's Capital, we refuse to sit idly by and see an unjust attempt made to besmirch the name of the greatest artist the Negro race has produced up to this time. THAT it is unfair to blame Hayes for a condition which has been very pronounced since the beginning of the administration of the late President Wilson seems all too evident. And yet, in Washington and a few days later in Baltimore; Hayes refused to sing until the discriminatory arrangements for the seating of Negro patrons were abolished. Those who know him do not doubt for one minute that this was the only course open to him. ON WITH THE FIGHT against prejudice! But in our fighting let us train our guns on the enemy, both without and within, and not on our friends. ELEVATE REV. BISHOP REV. HUTCHENS C. BISHOP has just rounded out forty years' continuous service as rector of St. Philip's Protestant Episcopal Church, which is the largest Negro body in the denomination and the wealthiest Negro church in America. The fact has been duly heralded in the daily and weekly press, and a dinner given in his honor in one of the city's exclusive restaurants. BUT WHY STOP HERE? How does the noble work of Rev. Bishop compare with that of other ministers, not necessarily colored, in the Episcopal Church in America? And, why has Rev. Bishop not been given an opportunity to accept or refuse the bishopric, an honor to which the distinguished clergyman has a right to aspire? What more should be required of him to prove his fitness for the highest position at the disposal of his denomination? THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH in America would honor itself by raising Rev. Bishop to the bishopric. SPASMODIC ATTEMPTS at law enforcement in the South, such as was made evident a few weeks ago when a Mississippi judge fined a county sheriff $500 for failure to protect a prisoner from mob violence, must not be permitted to overshadow the absolute necessity of a national anti-lynching law with teeth in it. What is a fine of $500 compared to the death of an innocent man at the hands of a mob? Expressed by Our Contemporaries. Roland Hayes and Agitation (From the Boston Chronicle). He demands made upon Roland Hayes to he protest against segregation in public gov is as unreasonable as it is unwise. Mr. K artist, not an agitator. Through his s in his art he is more effectively meeting to the Negro as such than all the ra rers in the country put together. Were a from the high plane of his appeal for of the worth of the Negro to the sing of words about his rights we would of the good accruing to our cause when hey should oditers and preachers expect his with his fine temperament to indulge Roland Hayes and Agitation (From the Boston Chronicle) The demand made upon Roland Hayes to head up the police against segregation in public gatherings is as unreasonable as it is unwise. Mr. Hayes is an artist, not an agitator. Through his excellence in his art he is more effectively meeting objections to the Negro as such than all the ranting agitators in the country put together. Were he to descend from the high plane of his appeal for recognition of the worth of the Negro to the mere banding of words about his rights we would have the good accruing to our cause wherever he appears. Why should editors and preachers expect him to tamper with his fine temperament through indulging in the rebellious mood accompanying agitation and protests? No one who has seen audiences of all degrees and kinds of humanity under the influence of Roland Hayes' artistic appeal and high spiritual personal mantra would be able to indulge in gross agitation and protest while proper and in keeping with some natures would be gross and below the appeal Mr. Hayes makes. Let those who are by nature and training fitted for protest and agitation conduct this part of the business. But where we have a man of his high artistic excellence and lofty spirituality let us relieve him of the need of resorting to agitation and protest. We should rather shield him from this soul-destroying business rather than urge him to take an active and leading part in it. Negro Academy Holds 29th Annual Meeting WASHINGTON, D. C.—The American Negro Academy held its twenty-ninth annual convention here Monday and Tuesday, with business sessions at the Mu-so-lift Club and open meetings at the Cleveland Community Center. The ciliation was organised in 1897 by the Rev. Alexander Crummel to promote development of literature, science and art, and to foster publication of scholarly works by Negroes. "American Literary Tradition and the Negro" was the subject of a paper presented by Dr. Alexander Schomburg thur A. Schoomburg of New York, president of the academy, discussed the origin and development of Masonry among Negroes, and W. P. Dabney presented a treatise on "Cincinnati's Colored Citizens." Resolutions were passed expounding the academy for distinguished services of three members who Financing the Enterprise By C. E. ARMSTRONG A newly formed commercial venture does not, because of its youth, have recourse to the great underwriting and investment houses like J. P. Morgan & Co. or Kuhn, Loeb & Co. Therefore, they have to raise their own capital when, where, and how they can. This is especially true of ventures sponsored by our group. In the main our various businesses have not reached the stage in their development to warrant the placing of any extensive lines of credit at the financial seal, and the banks within our group are usually so tied up with their own propositions that many requests by infant organizations for financial help are turned down. I do not mean that there should be an indiscriminate granting of credit, but there are many propositions of merit which, after careful investigation, would warrant the placing of some credit at the disposal of the bankers, the experience and counsel of the bankers. The inability of many promoters in the past to secure credit through the proper channels led to the offering of stock to the members of the race under the guise of investments. Stock selling at best is an expensive affair, and doubly so when the stock offers are not entitled. It has been stated by competent authorities that it cost from 20 to 30 per cent to Negro History Week a Popular Idea The call of the Association for the Study of Negro Lives and History for the celebration of Negro History Week has met with a most favorable response throughout the country. It seems that the public has been awaiting such an idea. Citizens in all States now rise with loud acclaim in offering their assistance in making the celebration a success. Among the interested are the teachers in the public schools, heads of the various systems, presidents of colleges, churchmen, and outstanding men of achievement in other important lines. The Superintendent of the State of New York will take note of it in his bulletin to the schools. The Department of Public Instruction of Utah says to the state the response will follow on the part of the schools in that State. The Department of Education of Arkansas says: "We shall be A.L.A. Announces Forty Best Books CHICAGO, Jan. 3. — The American Library Association announced today the following choice of the forty best books published in the United States last year: A Story, Yellow's Story, *Seller's Anderson*, *Life and Letters of John Muir*, *William Frederic Bade*, *Portraits, Real and Imaginary*, *Ernest Boyd*, *Bare Soula*, *Ganalliel Bradford*, *Genius of Style*, *William Crazy Brownell*, *Mark Twain's Autobiography*, *William Jean Howella*, *Write the Wild*, *William Ford Gorzas*, *Burton J. Hendrick*, *The Pantheon and Other Greek Temples*, *Jay Hambidge*, *Charles Proteus* died during the year—Chaplain Theophilus G. Steward, retired army officer, of Wilberforce, O.; John E. Bruce, publicist and newspaper correspondent of New York City, and Judge H. Terpenz of Municipal Court. Each of the latter had been decorated with the Liberian Order of African Redemption for special service rendered the little African republic. Officers were elected as follows: Arthur A. Sconumbry, New York, president; L. Lafayette M. H. Heath; J. Lafayette W. P. Dabney and Joseph France, vice-presidents; Thomas M. Dent, recording secretary; Robert A. Pelham, corresponding secretary; F. H. M. Murray, treasurer, and John W. Cromwell, librarian and historiographer. On the executive arm, ars. J. Chirman; Kelly Z. Miller, A. Leroy Locke, H. P. Slaughter and George U. Lightfoot. sell a stock issue of $100,000, provided the selling does not consume more than 40 days. With the poor facilities at the disposal of promoters of our race it takes considerable effort to sell a product, susan can be raised to make any appreciable business showing. In the past men have sought to interest the public in enter- prises which did not possess the semblance of existence. This is wolfly wrong. The general public should have been involved in any commercial idea until it has been tested in the markets thoroughly, and after it has been proven beyond a doubt that a market exists for the product of the idea. Capital then may be sought after for expansion purposes, because the changes have been done through in the testing out of the idea. The logical step in securing the necessary funds to begin operation in a small way would be to interest friends or relatives having faith in the impact and success of the project, the promoters themselves devoting all of their time and energy to the development of the project. After it has reached the stage where it can pay them a living salary and return a fair dividend on invested capital, with still a certain amount of cash, the project that might arise, then, and only then, is it ready for public participation. glad to carry out any suggestions you have to make in bringing this matter before the colored teachers of Arkansas." The State Superintendent of Public Instruction of Delaware writes that after a conference with Mr. R. S. Grossley, who has agreed to head up the celebration in that State, he will send out a letter to this effect to all the Negro teachers in that State. The Department of Negro Education of North Carolina has sent a similar letter to the Negro high schools of that commonwealth and expresses a willingness to do anything else to bring the matter before the teachers of that juriediction. Mr. G. C. Wilkinson, First Assistant Superintendent of District Schools of Washington, has appointed his system and appointed a committee to work out a program which will be observed in every Negro school in the District.

The situation has arisen through recent landing at Monrovia of hundreds of automobiles and trucks for use on the Firestone rubber plantations. Hard surface roads are being constructed to connect twenty centers of operation, one from Marshall to Monrovia, and only being completed. From an estimated population of 2,000,000, Harvey Firestone, Jr., has anticipated an ample supply of labor. Direction of enlarged constabulary and police forces is being sought by former colored officers of the 92d and 92d Divisions of the American expeditionary forces. In the "Southern Workman" The current issue of the "Southern Workman" (publisher by the Hampton Institute Press) contains an article on the Urban League Movement by James H. Hubert, secretary of the New York Urban League. Illustrated with portraits of some of the leaders in the movement. Another illustrated article is on "Indian Culture of Canada's Pacific Coast." by Harlan I. Smith, Dominion Archaeologist. Extracts from addresses on the occasion of a visit to Hampton Institute of about 100 county superintendents and school trustees are formed as issuing symposium. One of W. J. Harsha's Indian stories "The Strong Letters," and a "wireless" talk from London by Dr. J. E. Kagrey, on the Prince of Wales College at Achimota, are included in this issue.

At the age of 22, from 1867 to 1869, he was secretary to the great abolitionist, Senator Charles Sumner, and lived through the stirring Reconstruction struggles. Mr. Storey has been an overseer of Henry Law, editor of the American Law Review, president of the American Bar Association and of the Bar Associations of his State and city, Massachusetts and Boston. He has written a life of Senator Sumner, published a series of lectures on the reform of legal procedure, and has written numerous essays and pamphlets on matters of public concern. He has been identified with many movements for the public welfare. Including civil service reform, Indian rights, antimperialism and the movement for Philippine independence. On January 5, 1926, Mr. Storey appeared before the U. S. Supreme Court in behalf of the N. A. A. C. p. to argue against residential segregation in the Curtis case. Mr. Storey filed a brief in the case against "Grandfather Clauses" in 1915, won the Louisville segregation case in 1917 and won the Arkansas cases in 1921. He will take part in the contest against the Texas "White Primary" law, to come before the Supreme Court in 1926.

The average business man has a vocabulary of 10,000 words; the college graduate one of twice that number, according to Dr. Frank H. Vizetelly, managing editor of Funk and Wagall's New Standard Monetary, survey of the completed survey of the words known to various individuals and classes. The average physician, lawyer and minister have vocabularies exceeding that of Shakespeare, which included 23,000 words, Dr. Vizetelly says. The average minister is acquainted with 25,000 vocabules, including 4,140 of the Bible, Woodrow Wilson, in his books, used 60,000 distinct terms. The average individual, not specifically educated, knows between 3,000 and 10,000 words, the lexicographer says. A child of six knows more than 1,600 words, Dr. Vizetelly estimates. The man who cells roasted meat on his own probably knows 3,000 words or more he says. Dr. Vizetelly himself admits to a knowledge of 450,000 words, the number which appears in his dictionary. In discussing the vascular diseases, the plaintiff and lawyers, the lexicographer points out that the former must know the names of 1,700 parts of the body, 1,300 bacteria, about 1,000 diseases, 300 poisons, 500 pigments, 900 tests and tumors, and 10,000 chemicals and drugs.

Race discrimination and an passion in Nagroos in the United States as well as elsewhere will be discussed at a mass meeting to be held Monday evening, January 25, at Unity Hall. At this meeting a formal protest will be made. In commenting on the proposed meeting Walter Anderer secretary; of the Harvey Flood scheme; it appears as a simple business proposition for growing rubber, but actually it marks the definite participation of American imperialism in the partition of Africa. How long will it take before Liberia will be growing under an American immigration policy, that which is already being exercised in Haiti? "Meanwhile, the imperialist crimes against the Negro population of Haiti are becoming bolder and bolder. Military Governor John H. Russell, who is engaged in crushing the few remaining liberties of the Haitian people by means of the American Marines, has just declared that he will permit no presidential election in the republic this year. "Instead of allowing the people an opportunity to vote, the present servile Borneo administration will be able to office indefinitely—which means as long as it does the bidding of the United States Marines. "Imperialism is the universal explorer of the Negro people in this country and abroad, just as it is the explorer of all other oppressed races and nationalities. All the oppressed peoples must unite against this monster." DO YOU LIVE BY THE ROADSIDE WASHINGTON, D. C.-Do you live by the roadside? If you do, prepare to smile. The Secretary of Agriculture has announced that $73,125,000 has been proportioned to the states for use in the construction of Federal-aid roads. This means improved trunk highway travel between important points on the states. If you live on the Federal roadside, hold your property and improve it. This means business, money and good feeling. And Ucle Sam is helping to bring it about --- "Man does not live by bread alone," yet, at the same time, "what is eaten" may make or kill the man. Listen to a poet, how he puts this fact to rhyme: "Tis not her coldness, father, That chills my laboring breast; breatest; It's the furfounded cucumber I've ate and can't digest. To some people "what to eat" seems a simple matter. They are guided by one of three factors—their appetite, their taste or their habit. Such individuals sooner or later come to ruin. Taste, in fact, may lead you astray; a good cook can so pepper and salt and season a bad steak that the taste is bewildered and the steak is eaten with gusto and relish. Often you read of people dying of "acute indigestion" resulting from a "delicious" dinner served at some elaborate banquet or at some high-class hotel. Taste in these cases covered a multitude of sins on the part of some butcher, hotel keeper, or grocery owner. Bad food was eaten, but the taste did not know it. Owen Meredith, a famous poet, puts it in this way: We may live without poetry, music and art; We may live without conscience and live without heart; We may live without friends, we may live without books; But civilized man cannot live without cooks. He may live without books—what is knowledge but grieving? He may live without hope—what is hope but decelving? He may live without love—what is passion but pinning? But where is the man that can live without dining? Some people are very fond of cheese. Germans are devoted to beer, while to Italians it is distasteful in comparison with their wines. Some people have a decided fancy for kidneys and liver. The French enjoy burgers. The English people like the muscles around the prime ribs of beef. Nutrition experts are proving that liver, spice and lung of animals are more nutritious than the muscle cuts, and yet these parts are not eaten: horsefish is eaten in various parts of Europe they are now beginning to like them, but 4 of them flesh. Snail soup is eaten in Italy; in parts of France an appetiting dish is made with wedgeworms. Sugars and starches are important factors in our diet, yet the Eskimo eats plenty of proteins and fat and very little sugar and starches. Some Europeanans dislike bananas and onatoes. They find them easier and dishonest yet they have a highly nutritious foods—rich in iron, vitamins and roughage. Next to orange juice is tomato juice in the prevention of scurry in children. Thus, you see, habit is not an infallible guide to a highly nutritious diet. To some people the appetite will lead them astray from the paths of a proper diet and body's nutritious need. Some people eat too much and some body's nutritious need for much sugar and starches is noticed by some people. Others eat too much meat or proteins. Still others eat too much fats. Modern medicine teaches us that excessive protein, such as found in meats, may lead to disarrangement of the kidneys resulting in Bright's disease. Medical knowledge also allows us that excessive use of surgeries may so overwork the pancreas that diabetes will finally be the outcome. Thus the appetite, taste and habl do not act as a true guide to our proper diet. We must study food and food values. We must think more about what we intend to put into our bodies.
