Realtors and builders in many parts of New York and New Jersey offer attractive homes on easy terms. BY THE CAMERAMAN Controlling Race Stock STATISTICIANS of population estimate that the end of the present century will witness a total population in the United States of two hundred million people. These estimates have warmed the scientists to action, an outstanding one of whom, Prof. R. F. Foerster, of New Jersey, sounds the following warning: "What is vital is that our control over the future race stock of the United States will apparently never be greater than it is today, and if it desired to maintain a high average of ability, well-being, and citizenship, no simpler device is at hand than the nonadmission from this time forward of all DUBIOUS RACE ELEMENTS. From other observations of zealous Prof. Foerster, it appears evident that his classification of "dubious race elements" refers particularly to Negroid types from the West Indies, South America, Africa, and elsewhere, the fusion of whom with other racial types in America, says Prof. Foerster, should be avoided; "for," he continues, "the mulatto population today equals in number the black population of not many decades ago." Thus, once again are science and the midnight instincts of the "superior" races at variance; and it seems almost impossible to bring about either written or unwritten laws which have any marked effect to safeguard the policy of preservation, in order that the "sheep" and the "goats" may be kept eternally apart for all save economic co-operation. The "superiors" cannot seem to save themselves, and the "inferiors" are becoming more variant in hue than Joseph's cont of many colors. There is one sedative, however, which might be employed ere the effects of fusion bring greater conservation to the "higher" types of stock; and that is the formula of American democracy, which if employed in pure unadulterated doses will at least bring some degree of peace and repose to those who have been more wont to worry about racial purity than Christian integrity. United Laundry Workers THE American Federation of Labor has announced that the 20,000 colored laundry workers of New York City are being organized by the International Laundry Workers' Union, the Women's Trade Union League, and other affiliated associations subordinate to the parent A. F. of L. These 20,000 colored laundry workers, the A. F. of L. asserts, constitute about 75 per cent of the New York laundry employees. We would certainly like to see the detailed figures of the laundry personnel of New York employers, for about five years ago colored employees of New York laundries constituted only 20 per cent of the grand total. In the skilled occupations they constituted only about 10 per cent; in semi-skilled occupations, about 10 per cent, and in unskilled occupations, about 19 per cent, (Continued on Page 2.) Miss Carrie Peters Seriously Injured in Accidental Plunge From Casing WASHING WINDOWS, DEBUTANTE TUMBLES TO STREET Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Peters in Serious Condition in Harlem Hospital—Attorney Myles Paige Submits to Blood Transfusion While washing windows in her home, Miss Carrie Peters, the beautiful daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William H. Peters, of 310 West 139th street, fell out of the window from the top floor of their four-story residence Monday afternoon and is in a serious condition at Harlem Hospital. An amount of blood was transfused into her system from the body of Counselor Myles Palge, who volunteered, early Tuesday morning. After the transfusion hopes for her recovery were somewhat strengthened. Although she tumbled four stories to the concrete sidewalk. Miss Peters has never lost her consciousness. Her left arm was severely fractured and her intestines disarranged. A relapse in her condition came about 4 A. M. yesterday morning. Her parents, who had left the hospital, were hastily summoned to her bedside. The Rev. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, and his assistant, Rev. Raymond Henderson, were also at the young girl's bedside. Her uncle, Dowitt Starlings of Richmond, Va., and her flance, Dr. Raymond Cannon of St. Paul, Minn., are en route to her bedside. Because of her perfect physical condition prior to the accident and her fine mental alertness, the phy- sicians at the hospital said she had a fighting chance. Shortly after 4 o'clock Monday afternoon, Miss Peters, who is a senior in the Wadleigh High School, began to do some house cleaning. Her last task for the afternoon was to wash the windows. It was while washing the front windows that she lost her grip and tumbled down to the sidewalk. Her mother, almost hysterical, summoned the ambulance and rushed her to the hospital. She is engaged to marry Dr. Cannon, who is the president of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, this June, following her graduation. Her father is a prominent business man and is owner of a large garage in West 444th street. Visitors at the hospital are to be limited to relatives and intimate friends, it was reported. Discharged Janitor Sent to Workhouse Realty Agent Has Him Arrested for Interfering With New Employee Philip Hudson, janitor. 2033 Seventh avenue, was sentenced to five days in the Workhouse by Magistrate H. Stanley Renaud in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning on a charge of disorderly conduct. Samuel Stuart, white, 1252 Lincoln place, Brooklyn, who is agent for the Seventh avenue premises, made the complaint. Stuart said that because he received so many complaints from tenants about hot water and steam, he fired Hudson. On Sunday afternoon the agent said that he visited the premises and found Hudson intoxicated and interfering with the new janitor, preventing him from doing his work. The old janitor, Stuart said, was intoxicated and refused to give up his keys to the premises. When Hudson testified he admitted that he was intoxicated. He said that he had withheld the keys because his salary had not been paid him. He was forced to give over the keys before he was sentenced to the workhouse for five days. TWO BARGE WORKERS CHARGED WITH MUTINY Two members of the crew of the barge Cutler were arrested by the marine police when the barge reached port Thursday from Newport News. Va. and held in $3,000 ball each by Magistrate Hirshfield, in Brooklyn, on a charge of mutiny. The men, described as Alexander Allen of 36 Lawrence street, Brooklyn, and Alamando Sewer of St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, were charged by Captain Selmer Clausen of 62 Fourth place, Brooklyn, with attacking him with an axe and knives while the barge was being towed up the Narrows. He overpowered them and tied them to the deckhouse until a police cutter came alongside. Captain Clausen was attended by Dr. Partha of the Broad Street Hospital.

The dancers spread an alarm, which resulted in the arrest of the four gunmen. To do this they slipped out a side exit and called two policemen to the scene. The raid, if successful, would have netted the bandits nearly $200,000. Floral Offerings Completely Cover Rostrum Eulogy Read by Rev. Dr. William P. Hayes The auditorium of the Abyssinian Baptist Church was crowded to its capacity by mourners at the funeral services Thursday morning of Mrs. Blanche Fletcher Rhodes, daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. A. Clayton Powell, who died following an operation last Tuesday morning. The vestibules and stairways were also lined with persons who tried in vain to witness the funeral ceremony. The rostrum was completely covered with floral tributes. Barely BRONX JURY A MAN CHARGED ON GIRL OF FO Cases Against Seven Other Evidence—Girl Died in A jury sitting before Judge James Barrett in the Bronx County Court returned a verdict of not guilty in favor of Safrino Amantea, one of the eight defendants charged with sodomy and rape in the second degree in the case of Ruby Edwards. visible behind the pulpit because of the large embankment of offerings was Rev. William P. Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church and a close friend to the family of the deceased woman, who delivered a solemn, yet colorful eulogy. The Revs. Marshall Shepard, assistant pastor of the Abyssinian; John B. Pharr, who succeeded the Rev. Powell in the pastorate of the Immanuel Baptist Church, New Haven; Cenn. Richard M. Bolden, pastor of the Immanuel Church here, and W. W. Brown, pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Church, assisted with the services. Shortly after 1 o'clock the family marched down the aisle to their seats. The body lay in state from 11 a. m. in a beautiful conch casket of white broadcloth. The deceased was draped in white canton crepe and held a bouquet of illies in her arm. Dressed in white crepe, two members of the choir stood at either end of the casket like (Continued on Page 2.)

COMMON LAW WIFE STABS MAN TO DEATH IN 122ND ST. Says She Did Not Mean to Kill Him, but to Hurt Him Sufficiently to Make Him Stop Abuse William Newton, 40, a longshoreman, was stabbed to death Sunday by his common law wife, Susie Roberts, in their home, 236 West 122nd street, near Seventh avenue. She was locked up in the West 123rd street station, to be arraigned on a charge of homicide in the Homicide Court. On his way to the W. 123d St. station, Detective Unger was attracted by screams issuing from the house at the above address. Excited residents told him that murder had just been committed, and pointed to the door leading to the Newton apartment as the scene. Unger found the Robert's woman bending over the prostrate form of Newton, imploring him to return to life. She told the detective that in the four years of her life with Newton, she had suffered constant abuse. He had a violent temper, she said, and she was always the butt of his ill humors. Sunday, she said, he lashed himself into a fury over some trifle and a quarrel resulted. He began to beat her, she said, and in self defense she took up a knife from the table nad strabbed him. She had not intended to kill him, she said, but only to hurt him sufficiently to make him let her alone. Dr. Jacob Mendelson, 530 Manhattan Ave., who was passing the house at the time, was called in. He said Newton had died almost at once from the wound. Held for Robbing School Children Two big, husky youths, who are said to have made a practice of holding up and robbing school children of their lunch money, were hold without bail by Magistrate Charles Oberwager in the Washington Helights Court Friday. The prisoners, who gave their names as James Jones, 18, and Samuel Sawyer, 20, both of 246 West 129th street, are alleged to be the leaders of a gang that preys upon school children. Jones is charged with leading a gang of eight boys who surrounded Godfrey Ross, 16, 148 West 141st street, Wednesday night, near P. S. 139, and asked Ross for "a nickel." When Ross refused the monay, Jones, it is charged, drew a peekknife and threatened to cut Ross if he did not "come clean." He then took a watch worth $35 and some jewelry from him, Ross says RAID Wife of Col. Little Dies of Pneumonia Mrs. Margaret Lander Winslow Little, wife of Colonel Arthur Little, former commander of the 88th infantry, died Sunday in the Hotel Gotham of pneumonia and was buried yesterday in All Souls' Cemetery, in Great Neck, L. I. Manslaughter Verdict for Newark Slayer Charles Evans, known as "Foxy Evans," was found guilty of manslaughter in Judge Porter's court late Wednesday afternoon for the shooting and killing of Joseph Knight, alias "Monkey Face Joe," in "The Palace of Joy" at 135 Broome street, Newark, early on the morning of November 14. The penalty is 12 years. Evans set up self-defense as his plea. Grilled on the stand by Prosecutor McKenna, he admitted that he had been convicted of carrying concealed weapons in New York. The State, through James Twyman, an eye-witness, put in evidence that Evans, who always "went heeled," shot "Monkey Face Joe" as the latter was leaving "The Palace of Joy" after being ordered out by Evans. TWO MAIDS BEATEN BY ARMED THUGS IN DWELLING TWO MAIDS BEATEN BY ARMED THUGS IN DWELLING Claimed They Were Answering Advertisement for Houseman to Gain Entrance-Condition of One Serious A brutal attack was committed on two women servants in a private house at 55 East Seventy-third street shortly after noon Monday by three armed young white men, who escaped before other occupants could be summoned. The purpose of the assault and the identity of the thugs is shrouded in mystery, for there was little of value in the house and nothing was taken. The victims were Martha Harris and Jennie Taylor, both 48 years old, who are employed by Mrs. Ferrier J. Martin, living on the premises. They were taken to the Reception Hospital, where they were treated by Dr. Nelson for scalp wounds. The former, more seriously injured, remained at the hospital, while in the latter, suffering principally from shock, returned home. According to their story the three men rang the basement door bell about 13 o'clock. Martha Harris answered and one man told her that he had come in reply to an advertisement for a houseman. MUSICIAN TRAPPED IN ROOMING HOUSE WITH MAN'S WIFE MUSICIAN TRAPPED IN ROOMING HOUSE WITH MAN'S WIFE Divorce Action to Follow Sunday Morning Raid of E. M. Wright, With Boulin Private Detectives East Ninety-seventh street accompanied by operatives from Boulin's National Detective Agency and other witnesses, conducted an early Sunday morning raid on the basement floor of 231 West 128th street, where he claimed he found his wife, Mrs. Rachael Wright, and a man by the name of Joseph Hawes, a musician and leader of a dance orchestra. It is claimed that when the raiders arrived on the scene, Hawes was taken by surprise and he held on to Mrs. Wright claiming that she was his wife, until he suddenly realized that the husband was present. It is said that Hawes was roughly handled by the enraged spouse. Mr. Wright claims that sometimes his wife would leave the house and would not return until late in the night or early in the morning, leaving a pair of twins unattended. He then employed the Boulin's Agency, who kept both her and Hawes under observation for some time. The Wrights were married in June, 1921, in New York City. Their twins, girls, are 3½ years old. At the time of the raid, the landlord, Mr. Pattiford, told the detectives that he did not know Hawes and he was no a tenant of his. It was further discovered that Hawes had entered the house without his knowledge or consent by obtaining the keys of a roomer. Mr. Wright, who is in the express business, has started suit in the Supreme Court, through his attorneys, for absolute divorce and custody of his children, naming Joseph Hawes as correspondent. She was unwilling to admit them, but they forced their way in. They showed pistols, according to the women, and one threatened, "Don't cry out or we'll kill you." Despite the fact that the women were too terrified to call out or resist, the men beat them over the heads with their pistols and hastily left the house. No attempt was made to search the place for valuables. A few moments later the butler, L. J. Daniels, went to the basement in answer to another ring at the doorbell, and found the women semi-conscious. Detectives of the East Sixty-seventh Street Station are investigating. It is believed that the mem may have been out to rob, and that they committed the assault to enable them to escape when they found they had entered the wrong house.

Hayes, Long Associated With Abyssinian Pastor and His Family, Reads Eulogy Over Remains of Blanche Fletcher Rhodes (Continued from Page 1.) guardian angels as hundreds, of persons reviewed the remains. Following the church ceremony, interment was made at the Flushing Cemetery. Resolutions were read from the Official Board by Nelson E. Dixon, the Choir by Mrs. Esther Hayes, the Sunday School by Miss Miriam DeAncy, the Pastors' Aid Society by Mrs. Maggie Dale, the Community Workers by Miss Dorothy DeAncy, the Personal Workers by Mrs. Mattle J. Desverney, and the Missionary Society by Mrs. Isabelle Braxton. REV. HAYES' EULOGY. The Rev. Hayes, in his eulogy, said in part: "When I remark that Blanche was not easily analyzed or understood, I am merely echoing a statement that all have made who chanced to know her. She did not fall in the easy category of the average woman. She possessed a personality percularly her own. She dwelled in a world apart. "At times she appeared a bit strange and mysterious even to her closest friends. Persons of this rare type of character are easily misjudged as no doubt she often was. But after all no two individuals are cast in exactly the same mould, and it is only the small mind that gives undue significance to the angularities of human nature. Blanche Fletcher Rhodes was a woman whose real self did not lie open and exposed. The supernatural foliages had to be brushed away in order to get a glimpse of the superior qualities underneath. In other words, you had to know and understand her in order to pass correct judgments. Those who did not know her intimately were in no position to appreciate her or do justice in the portrayal of her character. "It may be that. Blanche was taken from us in order that we might see and appreciate more fully those superior qualities of soul buried deep beneath the surface. Sometimes death alone can bring one's true character into the light of day. I think of these lines from Shakespeare, "For it so falls out, that what we have we prize not to the worth, whistle we enjoy it; but being lack'd and lost, why, then we lack the value; then we find the virtue, that possession would not show us whistle it was ours. Today we see Blanche strong in life, brave in sickness, and unconquerable in death." Among those who sent messages of condolence were 137th Street Branch of Y. W. C. A., Rev. and Mrs. J. W. Brown, Dr. and Mrs. Davenport of Atlantic City, Counselor and Mrs. Wm. Smith, Dr. and Mrs. Charles E. Stewart, Washington, D. C.; Rev. and Mrs. Henry S. Spearman, the Washington D. I.

WHITE BOY ACCUSES COLORED TEACHER OF ASSAULT Says H. A. Tynes, of Public School 85, Hit Him on the Head With a Ruler Complete Denial Made of Charge Through his attorney, J. P. hill, 2376 Seventh avenue, H. A. Tynes, a teacher in Public School No. 85, made a general denial of the charges that have been brought against him by one of his pupils, Frank Chevarine, white, age 12, of 421 East 160th street. A summons accusing Tynes of assault was served upon the instructor to appear in the Harlem Court Tuesday. The complainant is alleged to be one of the most disorderly boys in the school, which has the name of being one of the worst in the city for teachers. Frank in particular has given his school authorities continual trouble. it is said. The boy is now under the parole of a truant officer. it was also learned. Frank, it was said, is in serious condition in St. Luke's Hospital suffering from hemorrhages of the scalp and injury to the tissues of the brain. According to the boy's parents on February 23 last he felt ill and was confined to his bed for a week. Becoming alarmed the parents summoned Dr. M. Douglas Macleod of 204 East 105th street, who had the boy taken to the hospital. Finding the boy's injuries serious the physician said he questioned him, and the boy told for the first time the story of the alleged assault. The boy said, according to the story of Dr. MacLeod to the police, that Tynes had struck him over the head with the ruler on the 23d when Paul did some class work incorrectly. X-rays to determine whether the boy's skull is fractured have been ordered. Stabbed by Unknown Man.

Evenings Men Accused of Rape Acquitted (Continued from Page 1) Brong Grand Jury to be tried for their relation with Ruby Edwards, the 14 year old girl, who died several days after she had been taken from a barn in the Bronx. He was directly charged with sodomy. The jury was carefully selected by Assistant District Attorney William Kler and Louis Hartman, representing the defendant, Thursday. The first witness for the prosecution took the stand shortly after noon. He was the man that owned the barn. He was followed on the stand by Patrolmen Dian and Foley. Sergeant Henry Robert Volze and the girl's mother. Attorney Alan Dingle, secured by the N. A. A. C. P., assisted in the prosecution. After the two days of direct and cross examination, Judge Barrett charged the jury. He was deliberate, explaining in detail the points of law upon which the crux of the case rested and reviewing completely the entire testimony. With great emphasis he urged the jurymen to be without a reasonable doubt, a doubt that they would consider in their business, in returning their verdict. The jury retired at 4 o'clock. The owner of the barn was the first to take the stand. He told that he discovered the girl in his barn with several of the defendants. He made them leave the premises and later informed the police, he testified. The temperature outside was about 4 degrees above zero. The girl he said, was partially clothed at the time he saw her. Ruby was later taken to the police station. When questioned at the police station as to what the man had done to her, she replied: "Ask them. They know." Detective Dilan, one of the arresting officers, took the stand, and his testimony was corroborated by Detective Foley. The officers testified that the defendants were examined separately at the station, and each made confessions. The girl, the officers said, had willingly gone to the barn with them. Sergeant Henry denied the charge of one of the defendants that the officers had forced the defendants to make confessions. The signed statements, he said, were taken by him. The policemen were followed on the stand by Robert Volze, one of the defendants, who turned state evidence. Counsel for Amentea grilled Volze severely and questioned his creditability as a witness. Volze told of his experience with the girl and the relation he saw the defendant have with her. He told how the girl suggested and urged him and two of his companions to take her to the barn. Turning from the story of his knowledge of her riding up and down the subways, Volze told of the two-day experience with the girl. The story was more pathetic than horrible. It seemed that an ignorant, foolish little girl had come to New York and gone astray. The girl's mother, Mrs. Della Walker, took the stand to give the girl's correct age. She said that she was born December 11, 1911. That the girl had the appearance of a young woman about 20 years old was admitted by the mother. In resting the case before the jury the defense argued that no evidence had been produced that showed that the act was actually committed. That there had been no corroboration of the testimony of Volze was also contended by the defense counsel. TAILOR SHOP BURGLAR PLEADS GUILTY TAILOR SHOP BURGLAR PLEADS GUILTY Pleading guilty to a charge of burglary, Henry Johnson, 23, 170 West 133rd street, was held without bail by Magistrate H. Stanley Ronaud in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning. On Thursday night Johnson broke into a tailor shop at 190 W 135th street, which is owned by faldore Schneiderman, white, of 990 Bronx Park South. Early that morning the large show window of the shop was smashed with a huge stone wrapped in wet paper. Three bolts of woolen cloth valued at $100 were stolen. After the police were notified by passersby that the shop seemed as though it had been robbed, the owner was notified. Following the search for the burglar, Johnson was seen with some of the cloth in April 4th--Easter Sunday Order Your Suit and Top Coat Now Not many days now before Spring makes its bow.

Colorful News Movies (Continued from Page I) as against 80 per cent, 90 per cent, 90 per cent, and 81 per cent, respectively, for whites in the four general groups named, i.e., total unskilled, semi-skilled, and unskilled. Now, there is no especial reason why the colored workers should have the "corner" on the profession of washing and ironing any more than the white should have it on electricians' and pipefitters' (or any other) occupations; and a bit of suspicion irresistibly attaches itself to a movement to organize the sisters and brothers, while, at the same time, they are frequently barred from other branches of the union. Be that as it may, however, if the news is authentic then the new laundry union prospectives should see to it that they increase their inclusion in the skilled classes. No particular pride attaches itself to the fact that they are "heavy" in the unskilled classes, and "tight" in the skilled group.

N. A. A. C. P. RIDICULES DEL. JUSTICE Awaiting Sentence on Penal Code Violation To await sentence Herbert Taylor, 249 West 128th street, was taken to jail Monday morning following his conviction of living in a disorderly house. He was represented by Attorney Louis Lavello, Taylor gave his occupation as a longshoreman. Taylor was arrested after officers of the Special Service Division caught a naked man with two nude women in a bedroom at the 123rd street address, it was alleged. According to Taylor, he was in the back yard getting wood to start a fire in the kitchen, which is in the basement of the dwelling, when he heard the door ringing. On answering the bell, the prisoner said, the men told him that they were from the gas company and wanted to inspect the premises. When the officers revealed their identity, Taylor said, they made him and two other men stand in a corner and informed them that they were under arrest. Pleads Own Case and Is Convicted Brint-Taborne, 66 Forest street, Montclair, acted as his own lawyer when he was tried before a jury in Judge Porter's court on a charge of carrying a revolver Friday. Taborne cross-examined State witnesses briefly and to the point, testified for himself without being shaken by cross-examination, and called a witness to corroborate his story. The jury returned a verdict of guilty against Taborne in five minutes. Taborne's story was that he lived in a poolroom at 19 Maple avenue, Montclair, where he was arrested February 7 in a raid, and argued to the jury in a short summation that under the law he was entitled to have a revolver under those circumstances. Cunning as Taborne was in legal lore, his plea was spolled because when he was arrested he told the police his home was at 66 Forest street, and the officers so testified. SENTENCE SUSPENDED IN "FAMILY AFFAIR" When Joshua Rochester, 2172 Seventh Avenue, was arranged in Washington Heights Court Monday morning on a charge of felonious assault by his wife, he changed his plea from not guilty to guilty through his attorney. Sentence was suspended. Following an argument in their apartment, the man caused his wife to cut her face with a sharp instrument early Monday morning. On the motion of the defendant's counsel that it was merely a family affair the sentence was suspended. Steps In Front of Taxi. While going east on 153th street and Seventh avenue, Alonzo Brennan, 58, 40 West 153th street, stepped in front of a taxi on Monday.

No Arrest Made After Attack No Arrest Made After Attack Colored Man in Same State Was Recently Hanged The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has addressed letters to the Governor and the Secretary of State of Delaware inquiring why no action has been taken to prosecute a white man who on Thursday, February 25, attacked a colored woman, a sworn affidavit stating the facts having been submitted to the Attorney General of the State. Delaware is the state in which a colored man was publicly hanged in the Georgetown Jail yard on February 26, men, women and children viewing the body, after the militia had repulsed a crowd at his trial by hurling tear gas bombs at the mob. The affidavit made out by the woman attacked states that George Elzey, white, a state automobile inspector, entered the premises of a colored man named Purnell at Seaford, Dela, and, having asked Mr. Purnell's wife to accompany him to the barn, there attempted to attack her, tearing her clothes and placing his hand over her mouth when she struggled and screamed. The local squire declined to issue a warrant for the white automobile inspector when complaint was made, and when Mr. Purnell visited the State Attorney General in Wilmington the Attorney General referred the matter back to the local deputy, there being no result. The N. A. A. C. P. communication was referred by the Delaware Governor to S. D. Townsend, Jr., Secretary of State, who wrote the N. A. A. C. P. that the State Attorney General had made a "thorough investigation of the case and determined that the facts did not warrant a criminal prosecution." The N. A. A. C. P. thereupon requested to Mr. Townsend as follows: "I am such as the facts which I have presented to Governor Robinson were included in a duly executed affidavit signed by Mrs. Purcell and witnessed by two reputable citizens of Seaford. I am writing to inquire if Governor Robinson, Attorney General Southerland, or you would be willing to give us the facts as ascertained by the Attorney General's investigation. This request, of course, does not imply any question of Attorney General Southerland's diligence. On the other hand, this matter was reported to us by citizens of Delaware whom we have every reason to believe are thoroughly reliable. You will understand that feeling that proper action has not been taken to bring to justice the alleged attacker of Mrs. Turnell, whether that feeling is justified or not, there will be great discontent among the colored citizens of the state. It is for the purpose of letting them know exactly what action has been taken by the state that we take the liberty of requesting you to send us this information.

Alberta Vancouver June Ministers Present Plea to Coolidge Ministers Present Plea to Coolidge Disrespect for Constitution Breeding Lawlessness, Memorial States (Preston News Service.) WASHINGTON, D. C., March 22. —Measures to stop lynching and for enforcement of all portions of the Constitution were requested of President Coolidge by a delegation of ministers representing the National Ministerial Alliance, composed of all the Negro denominations of the country. Mr. Coolidge agreed to examine a memorial left for his attention. The delegation told the President that depriving Negroes of the franchise in the southern states and elimination of the race as a political unit has been injurious to the entire country, because it has bred disrespect for the Constitution. "We suffer, being deprived of our political birthright," said the memorial. "The American people suffer more in becoming a party to the great injustice and in treating their Constitution as a meaningless, worthless thing. Thus it appears that this nation has been sowing injustice and wrong for five unbroken decades and today we are reaping a whirlwind of contempt for the Constitution and outlaws are rising among all the classes of the body politic. "Our people, in parts of this country, when accused of crime, are too frequently denied that right of every American citizen—trial by due process of law, the safety of one who is uncondemned, until he is legally convicted, to be punished according to the law, by officers of the law, and not murdered by interrupted mobs."

Jacobs, New York attorney, who is staying here with Leonard Kip Rhinelander, his client, is in receipt of the following from F. E. Lee, local business man: "I can, on behalf of Ocean Springs citizens, only hope that you may have a pleasant journey back to New York." Mr. Jacobs, in a recent interview to a New Orleans paper, said the citizens of this town "were showing little faith in their own city." The letter pointed out numerous improvements made here recently and added: "You yourself have taken about $21,000 profit out of the real estate dealers here, and Ocean Springs has been as kind as it knows how to you and your client, Leonard Kip Rhinelander, giving you both hospitality at rest and seclusion from your recent strenuous experience in the East. The citizens of Ocean Springs resent your recent interview as published, because it is unjustified and untrue." Mr. Jacobs had not replied to the letter today. He and Rhinelander have been here for several weeks. Charged With Assault. On a charge of felonious assault, George Gibson, 30, 105 West 129th street, was held for a further hearing by Magistrate H.

Has Former Lodger Arrested as Disorderly Adolpha Desez, who gave his address as 52 West 115th street, a former roomer in a white woman's apartment, was arrested after he had been summoned to court Monday morning on a charge of disorderly conduct. Mrs. Anna Stack, also of the 115th street address, the complaint, charged that Desez had given THREE up his room at her apartment and that on Sunday, while intoxicated, he entered the apartment without permission and went to bed in her son's bed. He then annoyed the family and refused to get out of the bed, she said. To allow the defendant an opportunity to secure counsel the hearing of the complaint was adjourned for 48 hours. Ball was set at $500 by the court. Cigarette Dropped in Paint Causes Explosoin While mixing paint in the basement of 117 West 127th street Wednesday, a man named Benzin, who roomed in the house, dropped a cigarette into the mitxure causing it to explode.

An idea which is fundamentally fallacious is that exercise is enough to maintain health and strength. For this reason athletes neglect their diets and indulge in strenuous exercises, with the result that most of them die young or are subject to frequent operations. Athletes, on account of their outdoor life and strenuous exercises which stimulate their appetites, are heavy eaters and eaters of foods deficient in the indispensable mineral salts. Walter Camp, author of the "Daily Dozen"; Christy Mathewson, of baseball fame; ex-President Roosevelt and many others were great outdoor men who succeeded to incorrect eating. Babe Ruth goes to the hospital or sees the doctor often; so do Gene Tunney, Jack Dempsey and other famous athletes who do not know what food to eat, when to eat it, and how much of it to eat.

This idea has no physiological basis. It is based solely on habits and customs. I often hear it and I ridicule it. Alcohol is not a true physiological requirement, although a large proportion of mankind is addicted to it and tobacco. A. Malcolm Smith, Arctic explorer, who has spent 48 years in Canada and Alaska, has said that neither meat nor liquor are necessary in the Arctic cold. From London has come another story that the memory of Thomas Parr, who set England's standard of longevity by living to be 152 years old, is being invoked in a campaign by the Long Life Society in favor of simple living. "Old Parr" lived under ten English monarchs, from 1483 to 1635. The authenticity of the record is attested by a slab in Westminster PETER "As to taking a drink of liquor every time one gets a cold or wet, as some chaps do," he says, "I regard that as absolute folly. I huddled my dogs against the sled on a bitter cold night when we had no place to camp, and walked around them in a small circle all night to keep warm—but I didn't drink any liquor to help me through, and I believe I am better for it. EATING AND LONGEVITY. From Constantinople has come the story recently of a man who reached his 150th birthday. Zora Agunh is his name.

Picture Houses Again Offer Splendid Films Best Amusement Page in New York City And It Was a Most Glorious Occasion, as Even the Elders Joined the Little Ones in so Testifying. Once upon a time, or to be exact, Monday afternoon, March 15, from three until six o'clock, there were fairs and elves and fays and sprites all fitting and feasting and laughing and dancing at Little Miss Jacqueline Beatrice Willis' birthday party. Little Miss Jacqueline was four years old on March fifteenth and her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. C. Luckey Roberts, gave a party in her honor at their home, 355 West 15th street. Although Mr. and Mrs. Roberts were in Palm Beach in person it is safe to say they were here in sight at least. However, Mrs. Mary Catherine Hawkins, little Miss Jacqueline's great grandmother, took charge of affairs and with the assistance of Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. Coulston, Mrs. Rogers and Mrs. Williams, as one of the tiny tots remarked, it was "wonderful." Mr. Junior Dean and Mr. Doyle W. Dillies arranged the decorations, all in pink and white. An elaborate collation was served to the children and of this the elders were permitted to partake as they joyfully looked on this little story from fairyland with Miss Jacqueline at the head of the table and grand Master Leroy Jr., her young brother, at the other end with the score and more of other children in varied carmelt caps all lined up on either side, and there was grave and weighty discussion on such matters as peppermint, wintergreen and as to which flavor ice cream was greatest and such like. And there were numerous useful and some very beautiful presents. After luncheon Mr. Edward Steel played for the youngsters, and Mr Steel is really a wonderful little dance, was a revelation. The guests were: Misses Evelyn Bailes, Gloria Brown, Annette Shead, Beatrice Snoad, Margaret Rivera, Shirley Monroe, Henrietta Toodles, Mury Toodles, Marie Wilks, Helen Willis, Elaine Tinsley and Oliga Worrel. Masters Morris Shead, Wadsworth Scott, Elmer Louis Hooper, Harold Willis, Paul Jones, Kenneth Clarke, John Toodles and Leroy Willis, Jr. Among the elders permitted were: Mrs. Mary C. Hawkins, Mrs. Rivers, Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. Elizabeth Smith, Mrs. Cecil Hooper, Mrs. Thodorede Brown, Mrs. Win S wills, Mrs. Marion Hill, Mrs. Elscott, Mrs. Wm. Clarke, Mr. Edward Steele, Mr. Edw.

Wilks Motion Picture Operators State Their Side of Case And Again Asks for What We Believe to Be a Fair Chance March 15. 1926. London Editor. N.Y. Amsterdam News. Olivia Editor, N.Y. Amsterdam News. New York City, N.Y. Dear Mr. Editor, in behalf of the colored motion picture machine operators of New York City, I would like to explain briefly the difficult situation in which we are placed. It is hardly necessary for me to explain how these exhibitors are making fortunes here in this community and from none other than members of our race. These some exhibitors have completely ignored our plans of placing us in their operating hours, to project the pictures on the screen. We have been trying for the past four years to get these positions, but because the operator in a theatrical is hidden away from the view of the public, the advantage is often of us in placing men of the opposite race to fill these positions. We have good, efficient operators our people, but we are absolutely pushed aside on account of our role. As soon as the Lafayette theater changed to pictures, Mr. Moore placed a colored man in our protection booth immediately. "the Honorississus" one of Harper's picture houses, has a colored man in the projection room. Why can't the other houses favor the men of a race but bills their houses every day? We have been refused admission as members in the operators' union yet the Lincoln Theatre and Franklin also sign contracts every year with the same union that reacts as members to their body, can't something be done to remedy this situation? We are sure the theatre-going public of the race is not aware of the treatment incurred us or they would, believe us in some way to secure these positions. We have sacrificed so much in Lulu Belles--All?

The anti-Lulu Belles are shoulders to contribute to it giving feeling that the work we are going out to those who Think Thomas wrote "The American individual with enough bravery, finished truth as Miss Dennis. A Young Woman of the Present Day Sees the Show at the Belasco Theatre From Another Angle and Speaks Without Reservation. By RUTH DENNIS The subjoined article is from the pen of a young woman who has contributed a number of brilliant articles to this paper during the past few months. We have no apologies to offer for reproducing it. We have never aimed to assume a position of moralist or to preach morality, but we have ruth which we, as a race must recognize if we hope to attain those heights which we so blatantly tell the world we are aiming for. To conduct this column in a manner to warrant this brave young woman to contribute to it gives us a sense of satisfaction in feeling that the work we are doing is slowly but surely reaching out to those who Think. Not since William Hannibal Thomas wrote "The American Negro" have we ran across an individual with enough bravery to come forth with the unvarnished truth as Miss Dennis. Was "Lulu Belle" actually based on the life of Florence Mills? is a story which has been asked continuously since the play of that name startled theatregoers. Dennis have been forthcoming from Miss Mills and others repeatedly. But so true to life is this play that "Lulu Belle" seems typical of the average Negro girl. Miss Florence Mills is one of the best known young women of that group. Her sudden rise from obscurity to fame and riches and her continued success have made her the target of unkind criticism by those who are envious. Why not the question by all who dare face the truth, "Is Lulu Belle' based on the life of the average Negro girl?" So great a responsibility rests upon Negro womanhood that it is imperative that serious consideration be given the condition of a race is fixed by the character of its women. If "Lulu Belle" is typical, then the Negro is doomed. Is it true that virtue is deprecated by the young Negro woman of today? Is there any strong incentive for virtuous living when the pure and impure are received on an equal footing, in society, and the ability to wear good clothes. is the so-called majority of Negro women are evading honest toll to live in licentious ease. "Clothes, clothes, clothes" is their one ambition. They seem to be the open sesame to social recognition. The craze for dress has aroused within the Lulu Belles of the race a passionate discontent that urges them to resort to all sorts of reprehensible follies and even to crime to obey. Greed and unrest among the fair sex is laudable if it led them to honest labor and thrifty forethought. What do high aspirations, noble purposes and commonsense lessons of life mean to the average Negro girl or woman of today? One may get an idea just what value is placed on these enduring qualities from daily observation. The Lulu Belles, who see themselves as a monotonous everywhere. They parade with shameless audacity their wanton finery before their envious and less successful friends. Clubs, cabarets and all social rendezvous where these Luhli Belles congregate to display, their charms are devoted to gambling, drinking and dancing. Their knowledge of social decorum has been mainly derived from questionable novels and rotten theatricals. They can like "white folks" when they indulge in all such damnable gratification is the thought which spurs these foolish ones on to destruction. When rebukeled for their folly they set up the excuse that they are no worse than the whites. The belief that they are justified in imitating them has proved that the Negro regards the white man as his superior or he, the Negro, would set up his own standards and live by them. If "Luhli Bello" is to be typical of the Negro woman of today, if she is to be a reproach among all peoples of the earth, then she will continue as she is, weak in purpose, timid in courage, superstitious in thought, and signally lacking in those enduring qualities which make for morality, thrift and industry. Even in motherhood these Luhli Belles are not animated with profound convictions of truth and duty. They do not seem to realize that they are the custodians of the souls as well as the bodies of their children. These heroines must realize that between good and evil conduct there is a great gulf. They must be God-fearing teachers of truth and righteousness. They shall lead the Luhli Belles to chaste living and the race will forever call them "bleeded". The anti-Luhli Belles are the hope of the race. On their shoulders falls the burden of redeeming and saving the host, it will be their responsibility to set the high standard of living, regardless of other races' ideals. our efforts to pass the rigid examination in order to get our licenses, and now we ask you to do your best for us in putting this affair before the public. We are fully organized and ready to fill any position in this community. I beg to be, yours very respectfully. A COLORED M. P. OPERATOR. "Request" Pictures at the Renaissance Theatre Win. Fox's "Over the Hill" with Mary Curr, one of the most famous pictures ever produced, will be the special attraction at the Renaissance Theatre Thursday and Friday, March 25 and 26. The second of the requested pictures is "The Ten Commandments," which will be played at this theatre again on Thursday and Friday, April 1 and 2. In bringing this masterpiece once again to the Renaissance Theatre in response to a great number of requests the management has very fittingly nooked it for Holy Thursday and Good Friday. Colleen Moore in "We Moderns" will be the feature picture at the Renaissance Theatre Saturday, Sunday and Monday, March 27, 28 and 28. This is a delightfully acted picture in which the star of "Sally" slams the lid on the flapper and steps out as modern in the extreme. DeMille Makes Hit With "The Road to Yesterday" Once again the great Cocil E DeMillo has struck out of the beaten path of motion picture production, and traveled over "The Road to Yesterday." And he has not traveled alone. He has gathered his public unto him, and taken them along in droses and awarens. In his latest release, personally directed and independently produced by him, which will be shown at the New Douglas Theatre this Sunday and Monday this peer among directors has given us a picture production to ponder over. First of all he has taken a theme of timely moment; a scientific problem that has baffled humanity since the beginning of time—reincarnation. He has woven a romance around it; he has instilled it with an undercurrent of pathos and human interest as only such a director is capable of. Fine Dramatic Presentation at Fisk University Fine Work by Students Receiving Praise From All Those Witnessing Show According to many, no better play has ever been staged at Pisk University than the one given on last Friday evening by the Docagnian Club, a girls' organization assisted by Chas. S. Lowis, C. Warner Lawson, and O. Erwin Smith, when they presented "The Chinese Lantern," three act play by Lawrence Housman, under the direction of Miss Lillian E. Cashin. The scenery was well chosen, appropriately arranged, and altogether made a most pleasing stage setting; while the costumes were striking for their beautiful colors and artistic designs. This, coupled with the naturalness and grace of the actors, and their perfect coordination, gave the audience a most delightful evening of entertainment. To attempt to mention the stars of the play would be to enumerate each actor, for each individual played his part with perfection. Miss R. Chrystal Tuill represented Olangist, a master artist, with much dignity; her art students and apprentices were Missae Inez Daniels, Hattie Beverly, Thelma West, Minerva Hatcher, Grace Binford, Jewette Gamin, and Katie Stills, who represented, respectively, Fee-Ah-Bee, Hon-Kin, Tee-Bee, Nitt-Hat, Non-Lign, Non-Tee, and Li-Long. Lottie Gee Making Good in European Engagements Word coming to this country recently brought the information that Miss Lotte Gee is meeting with an abundance of success on the other side. Miss Gee opened on March 15 in Birmingham, England, where Eubie Blake is her partner for the present on account of illness which laid Noble Sissle low. Miss Gee states she is far from being ill, and never felt better in her life. Her opening was most auspicious and she was forced to respond seven times to the insistent call of an audience that never seemed to get enough.

"Ladies of Leisure" at the Roosevelt Elaine Hammersstein at the Roosevelt has made an unusual and sophisticated comedy-drama in "Ladies of Leisure." The film has well been called a story of the penalty of virtue. This unique idea is not treated in a vulgar or slippant manner. Absolute sincerity seems to have been Director Tom Buckingham's aim and he has achieved it. Rarely has there been seen a picture with a stronger fabric of amusing situations which are not exaggerated or slapstick. A really all-star cast is one of the features of "Ladies of Leisure." Elaine Hammersstein, T. Roy Barnes, Robert Ellis, Gertrude Short and Tom Ricketts are some of the well known names. VIOLIN RECITAL AT MARTIN-SMITH SCHOOL On Sunday afternoon, March 28, at 5 o'clock, Eugene Mars Martin, Director of the Martin-Smith Music School, Inc., 139 W. 136th street, will give a violin recital at the school.

The 19th Annual Recital and Dance will be given for the benefit of the Martin-Smith Music School, Inc., on the 14th day of May at Manhattan Casino. A very fine program is being prepared for this occasion. "Phantom of the Opera" at the Franklin Theatre "The Phantom of the Opera." Lon Chaney's much-heralded successor spectacle to "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," and one of the most daring departures in screen portrayals ever attempted, comes Monday to the Franklin Theatre. It is a spectacular mystery story of Paris, in which a complete operatic performance, staged in a huge replica of the Paris Opera House, largest in the world, is compared with weird and grotesque adventures in the great cellars and plays the opera singer whom he kidnaps into his underground stronghold, and Norman Kerry plays her lover and rescuer. A remarkable cast is seen in the principal roles, and fully four thousand. 2 PANTS ROXY CLOTHES ALL 2 PANTS ROXY CLOTHES thousands of men Roxy Clothes and money will buy!

Let Your Friends in Albany Know. Mail T This Ad! Jefferson Passers Fail to Hold Gregory, Clinton Star Clinton's Colored Ace Scores 7 Fields Goals and 3 Fouls Against Glotzer in P. S. A. L. Final in Madison Gym—Orange and Blue Falls Down on Foul Chances THE Thomas Jefferson quintet proved unequal to the task of breaking the jinx which Manhattan fives seem to hold over Brooklyn aggregations and as a result was defeated by De Witt Clinton, 28 to 25, in the final round for the city P. S. A. L. basketball title on the James Madison High court last Saturday night. More than 1,800 fans jammed the Madison court to capacity for the long anticipated battle. Inability to cage foul shots and the phenomenal playing of George Gregory. Clinton's star forward, were the two factors directly responsible for the defeat of the Brooklyn-Queens champions. Out of eleven tries from the foul line the Orange and Blue succeeded in caging but three, while Gregory accounted for seven field goals and three fouls, a total of 17 points. The decision to place Gus Glotzer as guard over the shifty colored star also cost the Jeffersonians dearly. Gregory scored five goals off Glotzer, only to be held scoreless when Max Posnack was placed against him. Late in the second half Posnack was shifted and Glotzer resumed his guarding with fatal results, for Gregory immediately made a three-point play, which proved to be Clinton's winning margin. Jefferson Starts Well. Jefferson started well when Rabinowitz scored from the field near the foul line, but Wolff evened the count with a pretty heave under the basket. Gregory's foul put the Manhattanites in the lead, but Rabinowitz retaliated with a basket and Jefferson once more was ahead. Glotzer's foul gave Jefferson a 53 advantage and Cohen again tied the score for Clinton with a field goal. Hart, Jefferson's sturdy little colored star, put his team ahead for the last time with a neat field goal but Clinton put on steam and with Gregory leading the attack went in front never to be headed. Just before the end of the first half, Gregory scored the most sensational goal of the contest when he whipped the ball over his head MOR Easter PHONOGRAPHS ORTHOPHONIC VICTROLAS COLUMBIA GRAPHONOLAS SONORA PERKINS $5 DOWN $5 DOWN "Morris" Offers the Above Instru Season on Very EASY TER RADIO FO At the Best Prices and L Radiolas --- Stromber Freed-Eisemann --- "Morris" Offers the Above Instruments to You for the Holiday Season on Very EASY TERMS.

Posnack then relieved Glotzer and succeeded in holding the Clinton star scoreless for the remainder of the half, which ended 18 to 14 in Clinton's favor. Clinton started the second half with a whirlwind attack and rolled up six points while Jefferson was held scoreless. Shuckman finally broke the lee for Jefferson with a foul shot and Rabinowitz cut Clinton's lead to 24-17 with a neat, one-handed toss from the side. Gregory scored on a foul and Shuckman followed with a two-pointer, making the score 25 to 19. Posnack had succeeded perfectly in holding down Gregory, but Glotzer replaced his hard-working teammate. Gregory immediately took the ball and dribbed down the floor to score. He was fouled while doing so and scored Clinton's final point from the fifteen-foot line. Jefferson Hallies Gamely. Playing with the courage of despair, Jefferson staged a great rally in the closing minutes. Hart weaved his way through the Clinton defense to score twice from the field, and Posnack heaved in a pretty shot from midcourt.

Coach Taylor is not quite sure of his regular string, but quite a few of the youngsters are exhibiting form that will bear close watching. A number of the old recruits are back in the fold. The Wallace duct, with southpaw Hargrove, Drew and Amis backing them, will more than likely operate conditions in the box. Coach Taylor is a little dubious about his infield as all the lads in that division are roping neatly. Blackwell, Smith, Cook and Valentine are stepping with rare form in the outer garden and his troubles there will soon come to a termination. For the past few days the boys have been handicapped by three inches of snow, making rehearsals an impossibility. Their first tilt is with the V. N. and I. L. Hilltoppers in Petersburg, April 14. VERSARY DANSANTE The Y. M. D. anniversary this year will take on the form of a strictly invitational dansante with all the former features of the anniversary program. This affair will be held in the beautiful Almas Studio, 100 West 12th street, on Thursday evening, March 25. Arrangements are in the hands of the entertainment committee, composed of Charles King, chairman, William Fisher and Robert McNichols. George Gregory is president of the division and is only assisted by Herbert Harris, vice-president: Kenneth Miller, secretary, and Eitel Riley, treasurer. Girls in Championship Clash at St. Mark's Hall Note where the Gibraltar and Tattler Girls are going to meet in a game for the championship among the weaker sex at St. Mark's Hall tonight (Wednesday), and from what we can glean from Chris Hutswould this is going to be the hummer among girls' basketball teams. Hutswould is slated to leave town to referee an important series of games, but not before he takes charge of that clash which to the young ladies is the most important happening of the week. The Inffabbles will meet St. Mark's Alumni in the preliminary. For All The Family "We use Black-Draught in our family of six children and find it a good liver and bowel regulator," says Mrs. C. E. Nutt, of Mineral Springs, Ark. "I have taken it myself in the last two or three years for indigestion. I would feel dizzy, have gas and sour stomach, also feel a thickness in my chest. I'd take a good dose of when I felt that way, and it would relieve me, and I would feel better for days. "My husband takes it for biliousness. He says he has never found its equal. When he has the tired, heavy feeling, he takes Black-Draught night and morning for a few days and he doesn't complain any more. "I sure do recommend Thedford's Black-Draught." Your liver is the largest organ in your body. When out of order, it causes many complaints. Put your liver in shape by taking Thedford's Black-Draught.

The early stages of the game resembled nothing short of a rout, but an indomitable will and the ability to pop 'em at long range stood the soldier boys in good stead and furnished a very exciting climax to a well-played final stanza. Accurate shooting from both the field and foul line featured the game, the Superiors excelling in the first half while the Hell Fighters held sway in the second. In our review we noted the Superiors led with 19 field goals and made 13 of 17 free attempts. The Regimental boys caged 15 field goals and were successful in $ out of 11 trips to the foul line. The much heralded speed of the Brooklynites completely upended the Hull Fighters during the initial stanza and despite continuous applause the fans showed their keen disappointment as the "Soups" registered basket after basket with nary the semblance of a marker for their opponents. That the Superiors were out to win was plainly evident; Bartlett clearly out jumped Monte, Thompson came in and received the tap and gave it to "Sandy" and "Old Hooks" wouldn't miss. He caged 'em from everywhere, then brought a few from nowhere to show that he was not exactly off form. One of these days that guy's gonna he good, yeh; good enough to play five men by himself! Five baskets and one free throw in the first half-11 point, count 'em! Bartlett and Edwards also enjoyed a profitable first half scoring 9 points each. The half ended with the 369th very much in the "Soup," they could only show 14 points for their labors while the superiors showed 30. The soldiers however would not be denied; they came back strong with a long range attack, two of the shots that Louis Garcia and Monte pulled were from three quarters of the court. Monte opened the gaming when he stood past center and sent the leather on a line through the ring. Louis Garcia duplicated. The "Soups" then worked the ball down and doubled on Edwards' nifty loop within the 15 foot zone. Here Stevens, who had replaced Thompson, also sank a double. Monte for the Gothamites kept throwing from after, scoring four doubles from the center and one hanger. However, his notable effort was only enough to reduce the Superior advantage from 16 to 11 points. Steycens and Thompson played a steady game. Thompson's receiving of the tap from center was perfect. Rube Niles also played a good game. Although he fumbled and missed shots he usually made us defensive work was very good. his defensive work was very good. Gene Brown handled the game capably, his keen reflexing compelling the lads to play fast and clean.

Stag and Acme Teams Ready for Big Game This Friday night will see a pilgrimage of the faithful basketball fans to the Renaissance Casino to see two big games which have been the topic of conversation among the younger set for the past month. On this occasion the boys of the Stag Club will line up against the players of the Acme A. C. and the fur will fly. In the preliminary game the Gibraltar Girls are going in to meet the crack white combination representing the New York Life Insurance Company. A tie for leadership exists between these teams and this will be the deciding game. Leonard LaBett, promoter of the affair, says that the stage is all set for a real big time as all the boxes are sold and everybody is happy in anticipation of a big time. 'Y' MIDGETS TO ATTEND BASKETBALL BANQUET The "Y" Midgets, winners of the Inter-Branch Basketball League, will attend the basketball dinner given by the Inter-Branch Boys' Council on Wednesday evening, March 24, at the Trianon Restaurant, 2829 Broadway. Gold basketball will be awarded players and a blue enameled "Y" with "26" on either side awarded the Branch. "Doc" Cook of DeWitt Clinton high school fame and now coach of the freshman basketball team at Columbia University, will be the main speaker. The members of the team were Samuel Reese, captain, Rolland Ford, Samuel Adams, Earl Brasier, Frederic Talley, Robert Henderson and Henry Ellis. Mr. William Payne has acted as senior adviser to the group. Van Putten, of Salem, Loses to Pete Fasanoe Thrills aplenty were furnished last Saturday night at the amateur boxing tournament conducted by the Arlon Lodge, No. 342 Knights of Pythina, at the Broadway Arena for the benefit of the Passeover Relief Fund. Five knockouts, three of them in the first round, marked the show, in addition to a burlesque wrestling match between Young Mundy and Soldier Cononowitz. A notable feature was the work of the referee, Dr. Charles Simonson, of the N. Y. Elks, who was loudly cheered when he left the ring. Dr. Simonson was applauded for stopping the scheduled three-rounder between Peto Fasanose, of the Trifuity A. C. and Ellis Van Putten of the Salem Crescentes. For two rounds Ellis had showed a slight superiority over his smaller opponent. Pete came out of his corner in the final round swinging terrific rights and lefts at his now terrified adversary, and soon had Ellis in a bad way. The crowd howled for action from Van Putten apparently not realizing his condition. Paying no heck to the yells, Dr. Simonson stopped the fight, awarding the decision to Fasanose. When the audience saw that the Crescent Club had been near serious injury, they gave the reference one of the finest receptions ever tendered to any official in this city. The game for which the fans have been waiting so long will be played on Saturday evening, March 27, when the strong Y. M. D. Alumni meets the Y. M. D. Each team has one game to its credit, therefore both are anxious to take the "rubber" for it means the mythical championship of the West 155th Street Branch of the Y. M. C. A. On the same all "Y" basketball program the Y. M. D. Lightweights will oppose the Cardinals, winners of the midday Y. M. C. A. championship of New York this year, and the strong Cubs team will engage the Eagles. Every member and friend is invited to attend this all "Y" attraction. With the Billiardists Spring is here, so is Ginger and Barney Young. Both have been out of the city. Barney reports from Baltimore, where he has been visiting his folks, and Ginger from upstate, where he and his Jazzers have been entertaining. Both hit the Lafayette Billiard Room raving to have a fling at the Ivories. Ginger got a shade the best of the contest. J. Rosamond Johnson has been a close student at billiards this winter. His partner, Taylor Gordon, has been giving him a handicap of 70 to 50, but Johnson says from now on they play even as he has improved just that much since the Musicians' Tournament. While playing at a local theatre this week, Allie Powell says in his off-time his address is the Lafayette Billiard Room. Allie is a billiard fan and plays an interesting game. Shelton Brooks says he will try out a few of the boys at Pocket Billiards during his sojourn at the theatre where he is playing as a part of his recreation. The boys are getting in from Florida. None seem to be humpbacked from carrying their load of long green. Every one has a little change, so to speak. If the saying "Money talks holds true," they are all dumb. The twenty-five tables at the Emporium are all undergoing their spring renovation from the winter season, looking forward to a busy spring and summer. Old King Billiards is fighting a hard fight against the Number King who by money tricks and propaganda seems to have gotten a good start. Only time will tell who is the winner.

DON'T MISS THIS GREAT SOCIAL EVENT De Hart Hubbard Shares Spotlight With the Great Foreign Stars Famous Cincinnati Flyer Turns in Another Sensational Performance by Establishing a New World's Indoor Record in Broad Jump PANDEMONIUM ruled in the crowded drill shed of the 22nd Regt. Armory last Saturday night when Charlie Hoff, the man that put Oslo, Norway, on the map, soared over the crossbar at 13 feet 7½ inches to a new world's indoor record for the pole vault at the twelfth annual indoor games of the Post Office Clerks' Association. For the tenth consecutive time since the fourth of February the black-haired Norseman fractured the indoor record at increasing heights. Competition was there for Charlie that night. Vln Pickard of Pittsburgh University cleared the bar at 12 feet 6 inches after Emerson Norton of Georgetown was forced to withdraw after jumping 12 feet because of a pulled muscle. Side. Last Saturday night Nobby Joe Gans played a quick return date and proved the good judgment of the Commonwealth's energetic matchmaker when the Chicagoan DeLart Hubbard, famous flyer of Cincinnati and United States Olympic representative of U.S. gam in the broad jump, established a new world's indoor record for the running broad jump by leaping 24 feet 71⁄2 inches on his first attempt. This is one foot and one-eighth of an inch better than the mark established by Charles Hoff at the "Cassie" meet last Tuesday night. Hubbard is also holder of the outdoor record of 25 feet 107⁄8 inches. After winning his heat and semifinal, DeLart Hubbard, Cincinnati Negro flyer, declined the issue in the final in order to conserve his strength for the broad jump event which was to come later in the evening. Due to the large field in the 1,000-yard handicap run two races were held, George Marsers, of the New York A. C. starting from scratch in the first division had to be content with second place, being beaten by Bernard McCafferty of Seton Hall Prep. McCafferty was allowed 35 yards on the scratch, which proved to be too big an advantage to overcome. Johnny Holden of the N. Y. A. C. started from scratch alone in the second group. Pinkle Sober did not toe the mark, because of a severe cold. Holden had no trouble in capturing the first prize in 2 minutes 17.1 seconds. Fordham's one-mile relay team captured first place in the Metropolitan College relay race by a good margin. Mitchell, Ethelcee Gibson and O'Connor, running in that order for the Maroon, bested the quartets from N. Y. U. and C. C. N. Y. with ease in 3 minutes 22:55 seconds. Johnny Gibson, running third leg for the Jesuit school, cleared away any doubt as to the ultimate winner by turning in one of his fast 440-yard trips. Sensational Bout at Commonwealth S. C. Saturday Kaplan and McVey to Renew Hostilities — Gans Whips White and Brown Gets Decision Over O'Dowd K. O. Phil Kaplan and Jack McVey, ranked as two of the foremost performers in Harlem, are hard at work getting themselves in tip top shape for their twelve-round scrap at the Commonwealth Sporting Club in Harlem next Saturday night, which will be the feature attraction of the National Sports Alliance Relief show. Matchmaker Eddie McMahon has been trying to land Kaplan and McVey for some time, but it was not until the proposition was put to them that it was for a cause that concerned them that the match was finally consummated. The matching of K. O. Phil and Jack makes it a certainty that a banner attendance will be on hand and there is sure to be a neat profit, which will be turned into the coffers of the fund for taking care of boxes and others in the game who have been incapacitated or ill and in need of assistance. Kaplan recently thrilled the Garden fans by stopping the great coast phenom, Mickey Rockson, K. O. Phil, now that he is a middleweight, packs what is without a doubt the hardest punch - of any man in the class. McVey is a shifty fellow and has met the best. Jack took on Joe Dundee on one day's notice and made the Baltimore lad step some in their scrimmage. McVey will also be much stronger as a middleweight and will keep Kaplan going at a fast clip throughout. The second twelve on the card is a featherweight tussle, in which Willie Makel of Harlem buckles into Irving Shapiro of the West Phone Audubon 6650 DELLA M.

Last Saturday night Nobby Joe Gans played a quick return date and proved the good judgment of the Commonwealth's energetic matchmaker when the Chicagoan went in and without wraps pasted Billy White of New Jersey good and plenty. White came out in the first round and gave promise of making this bout one along sensational lines, but Gans soon took things into his own hands and Billy had quite an interesting evening to which he contributed little. The colored had won by a mile and the judges experienced no trouble arriving at the decision. Al Brown in the feature offering of the evening won from Mike O'Dowd. Al did not have an easy time winning, for when O'Dowd got rid of his fear he sailed into Al and made it so interesting for him many booed the decision, which gave him the fight. Catskills' Coming to Battle Renaissance Five This Sunday Night Patersons, With Borgeman in Line-Up, Had No Chance With the Douglas Men Here Last Week WE THOUGHT by this time at least one white basketball team would do what has now appeared to be impossible, and that is to break the winning streak of the Renaissance Five on the latter's court right here in Harlem. But even the mighty Celtics had to retreat when they faced the Douglas men on the latter's own court and everything points to another season of consecutive victories for the local point. Last Sunday evening the Paterson came in from New Jersey with Benny Borgeman in the lineup, and they were as hopeful a bunch as ever tried to stem defeat at the popular stamping ground of the Big R players. But even with Borgeman in the lineup, Renaissance simply ran away from Paterson and piled up the comfortable score of 56 while Paterson trailed with 26. Experts present at the game believed that Paterson would come from behind and stage a sensational last half barrage, but after Renaissance left the court in the first period with a 22-12 score they had the confidence which few teams could overcome after taking such a safe lead and it was nothing to it but Renaissance. This Sunday evening the champions will entertain the Catskills in what those who know the prowess of the upstate five predict will be a hot engagement. These farm fed white boys, they say, have got the stamina, speed and enough resourcefulness to make it mighty interesting for Captain Slocum and his men.

State Schoolboy Champion Turns In Another Brilliant Performance Gus Moore Romps to the Fore and Virtually Showed Up a Field of Fifty Runners at Twenty-fifth Annual Meet of De Witt Clinton School LARGELY because of the work of Frank Labes, Charley Smith and Harry Bresiloff, which accounted for a clean sweep in the 12-pound shot put, the New Utrecht track team scored a clean-cut victory in the twenty-fifth annual indoor meet of the De Witt Clinton High School at the 102nd Engineers Armory on Saturday. New Utrecht chalked up 27 points, a clear margin of triumph over the Stuyvesant team, which collected 14 tallies. Karl Wildermuth, the star sprinter of the Lynbrook High School aggregation, turned in the outstanding performance of a brilliant meet when he equalled the national interscholastic indoor record of 0.110-1-5 in the 100-ward dash. In trying the record held by Francis Hussey for some years, Wildermuth defeated Vincent Ottley, the colored streak from Textile, by a matter of two yards. Ottley crossed the line the same distance ahead of Lalor of Stuyvesant. Wildermuth left the mark like a shot and was clear of his field before twenty yards had been covered. He gradually increased the lead and was never pressed at any time. Bernstein Starts Utrecht Parade. The New Utrecht march to triumph was started when Phil Bernstein sprinted first across the line in the 220-yard dash. Bernstein's time of 0:25 was nothing remarkable, but it was sufficient to win with some to spare from the Clinton crack, Innis, and Reuter of Newtown. Otto Rosner added impetus by capturing the half mile, finishing with a high turn of speed after setting a slow early pace. On the last lap, Rosner opened up a tremendous gap, but the time for the event, 2:05 3-5, was comparatively slow. This brace of victories was increased by one when Frank Lubes had captured the shot put with a heave of 51 feet 3% inches. Smith was second, a few feet behind, and H.

Mallon of Manuel Training took fourth place. It was this sweep in the single weight event that clinched the meet for New Utrecht. Eddle Everard of Sturvesant took the only other field event on the program, the running high jump, with a leap of 5 feet 10 inches. The holder of the inter- scholastic record was satisfied with a victory and did not attempt to go higher, after Buch of New- town and Langley of Morris had been disposed of. Easy Victory for Moore. Gus Moore of Boys' High, New York. State, cross-country champion, turned in one of his usual sterling performances in making a show of the field of almost fifty that started in the mile run. The colored star succeeded in lapping the majority of his opponents, and won by more than three parts of a lap from Erda of Poly Prep. Moore was never extended and his brilliant time of 4.32 2-5 is but slight indication of what he could have done if pressed. Ben Dolgow of Alexander Hamilton, was the victor in a stirring finish in the quarter-mile run. After winning his heat in the good time of 0:53, Dolgow just lasted to win the final from Hiller of Flushing, and Briggs of St. Augustine. His time was 0:55 1:5. The Hamilton star jumped into a long lead at the start and this stood him in good stead, for he was stopping badly at the end.

This is not a blood game, nor is it a game for vengeance, yet a hard struggle is bound to be the result. The question is, who is going to win? You can't, as some philosopher has already remarked, always guess the answer in sporting events. The Jerseyites want to tell the world that while Morgan will arrive with such stars as "Lanky" Jones, "Pinky" Clark, "Mars" Hill, "Ike" Young and Mack Payne along with Powell Sheffly, the Tuxedos have a line-up in Peacock, Johnson, Jones, Nottingham, Raymond, Edwards, "Slippery" Raymond, Jordan, Bell and Murphy that will make any combination of basketball players step to win. Anyway, the Tuxedo team can make a pretty good bet and if she does lose it will take place in good company. There are two other attractions which the Tuxedo club will offer to her large number of followers. Maude Mills, sister of Florence, will give a stunning act in snappy songs and dances, and Herb Dumbar's Blendolian Orchestra, which recently returned from a successful tour abroad, will give the dance lovers something new with their soul-stirring jazz.

The white clubs are the fastest semi-pro teams in this vicinity and all of the colored clubs are members of the Eastern Colored League. The Bacharach Glants, Harrisburg Glants and Hildale Club were all represented at the meeting and will comprise the colored teams. Camden of Camden, N. J., Allentown, Pa., and one other club yet to be selected will round out the circuit. The schedule will be worked in such a way as not to interfere with the Eastern Colored League schedule. One feature will be that when the colored clubs meet the game will count in the percentage of ench league. Frank Miller, former manager of the Upland team, was named president and Bill Dallas, a local newspaperman is secretary-treasurer. The club managers who attended the meeting wore Ed Boldon, Hilldale; Colonel Strothers, Harrisburg Giants; Chargie Johnson, Bacharach Giants; Lou Schauh, Camden, and Ernie Landgraf, Alentown. Another meeting will be held at the Christian street Y. M. C. A. March 18 to complete arrangements and admit the sixth club. Hazleton, Pa., has been named as the logical town to complete the circuit.

Julius Bledsoe, Negro baritone, achieved a triumph at recent recessions he gave in Ohio cities. The Dayton, Ohio, "Journal" said of him: "Mr. Bledsoe possesses two characteristics of a great singer, a naturally beautiful voice and interpretative skill. In addition he has acquired a high degree of technical ability. Selections were presented with restraint and vocal police." The Cincinnati "Enquirer" said of his recital in that city: "A comparison of Julius Bledsoe with Roland Hayes is inevitable, and the conclusion in nearly every case will probably be that the former, though different in many ways from his tenor confere, is just as finished an artist. His is a bartone voice of amazingly wide range, rich and resonant in tone, at once powerful and of fine quality." "At Calvary M. E. Church, 7th and Smith streets, Julius Bledsoe, Negro barrio, appeared in a recital Wednesday night which revealed one of the most magnificent voices heard here in a long time, "Perfectly placed, with a tremendous range (over two octaves), with a rich, vibrant quality equally interesting in any style, this voice has an appeal that knows no limitation of race." The Cincinnati "Times-Star" said: "Reviewers of concerts accustomed to a cohort of artists without voice and vocalists without art who clutter up the concert stage listened almost with incredulity on Wednesday evening to a singer of such great natural endowments as to be a phenomenon."

It makes it unlawful for any white person to establish a residence in any colored neighborhood or for any colored person to do the same in a white section except with the written consent of a majority of the residents in that neighborhood; provides that any person owning property in a neighborhood Specialists Will Attn TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE best known surgeons and phy the fifteenth anniversary meet Clinic and the ninth annual m Clinical Society of Tuskegee ing to announcement made Dibble, Jr., medical director treasurer of the clinical society That the clinic is widening its scope and attracting greater attention is evidenced by the fact that the Alabama State Medical Association and the executive committee of the National Hospital Association will hold their meetings here during the sessions of the clinic. Following the observance of National Negro Health Week, the clinic will begin during the Instituto's Founder's Day exercises when among the many visitors from all sections of the country there will be present a number of nationally known physicians and surgeons. Dr. Dibble, who is arranging the clinical program, is of the opinion that the clinic this year will surpass those of former years both in attendance and in instructional value. "Our clinic," he declares, "has demonstrated from the beginning its value to physicians and surgeons who wish to keep abreast of the advance in medical science. It has become an institution, regularly attended by the leaders in the profession." Physicians and surgeons who have as patients good clinical subjects are urged to bring them to the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital for treatment. Patients unable to pay will not be charged; others will be requested to pay the regular fee. Specialist Will Attend. The visiting medical men will be welcomed to the facilities of the hospital and those of the Institute by Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute. Likewise they are invited to visit and inspect the U. S. Veterans' Hospital by Lieut. Col. J. H. Ward, medical officers in charge. The Government institution is adjacent to the institute grounds.

NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 1926 Mr. Darrow and Walter White spent two days in Detroit this week making final arrangements for the new trials. Robert M. Tons, County Prosecutor, has announced that Henry Sweet, younger brother of Dr. O. H. Sweet, will first be tried. Separate trials have been demanded by defense counsel. Though this will make the trials much longer, it is felt that this procedure will more surely result in fairer trials for all the eleven defendants. ns to Fight New Ordinance to Finish inhabited by persons of the opposite race prior to the passage of the ordinance shall have the right to move into it; and provides that a white person may purchase or own property in a colored neighborhood subsequent to passage of the law or a colored person in a white section, but prohibits occupancy of such property.

NOTICE WE REPAIR FOUNTAIN PENS EQUAL TO NEW WHILE YOU WAIT LENOX PEN HOSPITAL 541 LENOX AVENUE Corner 137th St. New York --- Miss Robinson Conducts Successful Kindergarter A little more than a year ago a young woman interested in children took note of the crowded school conditions existing in Harlem, and conceived the idea of a private kindergarten for race children. After a survey of the community and finding that there was little or nothing being done to meet this need, Miss J. Marjory Robinson, daughter of Rev. J. W. Robinson, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, decided to launch such an enterprise. Starting in September with two children, the school has grown until it has 35 children enrolled, with an average attendance of 25 daily. Under the careful supervision of Miss Robinson and her assistants, the children have shown marked development. Some special features of their work are: French conversation, dramatization and a kindersymphony. A few Sundays ago the children appeared on a program at the Forum of P. S. 138 and sang a group of Negro spirituals. They are now preparing for a Kidfie Karnival and Fashion Show to be given Wednesday evening. March 31, at St. Mark's M. E. Church, 1838 street and St. Nicholas avenue. The school is located in the Coachmen's Union League Building, 252 West 138th street. The hours are from 10 A. M. to 2 P. M. C.O.S. Conducting Drive for Funds C.O.S. Conducting Drive for Funds Spent $19,600.63 on Needy White and Colored Families in 1925 The Charity Organization Society, 105 West 22nd street, which is conducting a drive throughout the city for funds, spent $19,600.63 on needy colored and white families living in Harlem during 1925. Aid was given 243 white families and 207 colored. The total number of individuals under the society's care in the district was 2,532. The office of the society at 71 E. 125th street is known as "Harlem's Trouble Doctor." During all hours of the day those in distress call to talk over their troubles, get advice and help. The Charity Organization Society spends $750,000 yearly. It is entirely supported by voluntary gifts. Its primary purpose is to aid families in distress, due to unemployment, illness and incarceration. Both races in Harlem are cooperating to make the drive, which started Sunday, March 21, and closes Wednesday, April 7, a success. The ten local districts where the society gives valuable aid to the needy are taking part. The Harlem District Committee is made up of white and colored citizens. Officers of the Central Council are: Robert W. deForest, president; Otto T. Bannard, vice-president; Harold T. White, treasurer, and Lawson Purdy, secretary and general director. CUT HOLE IN ROOF TO STEAL DRESSES Burglars saw a hole through the tin roof early Thursday morning and entered the women's dress shop of Sydney Birnbaum at 2393 Seventh avenue, near 139th street. They escaped with silk dresses valued at $3,700. When Birnbaum opened the shop, which operates under the name of the Snappy Styles Shop, he found most of his stock of dresses gone. Detectives of the West 135th Street Station believe the burglars must have used a truck to cart away the dresses. BOY MADE HEAD OF SCHOOL ORGANIZATION David Myers, a colored student at Sturveasant High School in New York, has been elected president of the General Organization of the school, winning by an overwhelming majority of the students' votes.

Submits Proof of Attucks' Race Submits Proof of Attucks' Race Trotter Answers Man Who Doubted He Was of Negro Descent William Monroe Trotter, secretary of the National Equal Rights League, has written to Walter Kendall Watkins concerning his recent criticism of the historical accuracy of the Boston Massacre Day proclamation lately issued by Gov. Fuller and also his statement that Crispus Attucks was not of partly Negro decent. The Equal Rights League secretary states that the authority for the statement that Paul Revere arrived shortly after the massacre and pronounced the words quoted by Gov. Fuller in the proclamation is a story of the life and times of Paul Revere by Walter Alden Dyer, a graduate of Amherst College, listed in "Who's Who in America," as having been a staff writer or editor of several important newspapers and magazines and the author of several well-known books. This history has been accounted for the State Library. According to the secretary, Mr. Dyer records Revere as arriving too late to avert the tragedy, but in time to quell further disorder with his whistle. Slave With Short, Curled Hair. In regard to the charge that Attucks was not colored, the secretary refers to the New England Historical and Genealogical Register, published in October, 1859, page 300, wherein it is stated that in the Boston Gazette of November 20, 1750, an advertisement appeared announcing that Crispus, a mulatto, had run away from his master. William Browne, of Framingham. The advertisement described Crispus as being 27 years old, well set, 6 feet 2 inches, short, curled hair, etc. The article goes on to say, according to the secretary, that the above-mentioned man is presumed to be Crispus Attucks, who fell at the Boston Mussacre. The descendants of Browne have a pewter drinking cup belonging to Attucks and his powder horn. That article is signed by C. H. Morse, Cambridgeport, July 22, 1839. J. H. Temple, the reply of the Equal Rights League secretary goes on to say, a native of Framingham, whose ancestors represented the town before the Revolution at patriot conventions, in a history of Framingham states that Attucks was a mulatto, born in Framingham, and that the old hole where the Attucks family lived is still visible. Temple is quoted as saying that Attucks was the descendant of John Attucks, an Indian, and that it is quite probable that the family had intermarried with Negroes who were slaves. Ald. Shields Favors Roof Playgrounds After pointing out that 2,254 children under 16 years of age were killed and 53,849 children under 16 years of age were wounded, making the appalling total of 56,103 children of school, age who were wounded or killed by motor and other vehicles while seeking recreation or engaged in play on the streets of New York City during the five-year period ending December 31 last, Alderman Henri W. Shields of the 21st A. D. introduced a resolution asking the board to use the roofs of several apartments as playgrounds. The number of vacant parcels of land in residential districts upon which playgrounds might be established is wholly inadequate to serve the needs of the great masses of children of New York City. Alderman Shields' resolution states. The resolution directs the President of the Borough of Manhattan to secure estimates of the cost of constructing playgrounds in this manner. George Moseley of 662 Rockaway avenue, Brooklyn, who killed George Jenkins with a knife December 14 lust, was sentenced to not less than ten nor more than twenty years in County Court, Brooklyn, Saturday.

Read About Roxy on Page 5 A CLASSIFIED AD Is the Key to Everybody's Pocketbook New Jersey Citizens Urge Equality Law TRENTON, March 22—Negroes from all parts of the State attended a hearing today of the Committee on the Revision of Laws in the Assembly chamber and took issue on the proposed amendment of the Civil Rights act to give persons denied accommodation by a hotel because of race or color the right to recover a personal judgment against the management. The hearing lasted for two hours. The present act provides that a judgment ranging from $100 to $500 may be recovered, but directs that the money be paid to the State. A. Dayton Oliphant of Trenton, a white counsel for the New Jersey Hotel Men's Association, opposed the bill. Among the advocates were Dr. Walter A. Randolph of Newark, former member of the House from Essex, and Attorney Isaac Nutter of Atlantic City, a political leader. The hearing was marked by several stormy intervals. The Municipal Civil Service Commission has ordered a new police examination. Applications opened March 23 and close April 13. Examinations will take place July 13 and 14.

Segregation Fight On in St. Louis A concerted effort by 21 organizations in the city of St. Louis to establish exclusion of Negroes from residential districts with definitely fixed boundaries, is being met by the local branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which has organized a special committee to obtain members and raise funds to meet emergencies as they may arise. James H. Tanter, secretary of the St. Louis Branch, writes to the National Office of the N. A. A. C. P. in New York: "There has been instituted propaganda to prevent the Negroes from occupying premises in certain localities in St. Louis. Boundaries have been formed and a perfectly organized effort has been established to accomplish these aims of the white real estate agents. "Twenty-one organizations have banded themselves with well-hired plans to keep the Negroes from purchasing or renting houses only in the localities they have selected for them. This organization is composed of real estate men, merchants and business men of every profession. The agreement as laid out, or, in other words, the constitution of the organization, is in our hands. The Executive Committee (of the branch) has authorized a committee and that committee has worked out a plan to comb the city for membership and defense funds to be used as emergency arises. We have something like 30 organizations. All are willingly desirous of working with the association's branch."

Wednesday, March 24, 1926 Tammany Hall and Crime LAW ENFORCEMENT in New York City is probably at the lowest ebb it has ever reached. Hardly a day goes by that bold bands of bandits do not swoop down upon the city, commit robberies of the most atrocious kind, elude the police and escape. Hardly a week goes by, even in Harlem, that some storekeeper is not shot down by youthful white and colored amateurs in the game of crime, who, despite their youth and the fact that they live in the community, manage in far too many instances to elude the police and escape sometimes without even carrying out their plan to get money without working for it. IT REALLY SEEMS that ex-Mayor Hylan's prediction that with the advent of the rock-ribbed Walker-Tammany administration criminals would overrun the city, has come true; and while three months is a short time within which to judge a new administration, the present tendency is unfavorable to the Walker administration. BACKED BY MAYOR WALKER, Commissioner McLaughlin, who says that he has sent every available member of the police force out on patrol duty, asks for the appointment of more policemen to meet the situation. But will an augmented force of uniformed patrolmen be able to make any appreciable headway against this wave of lawlessness? We seriously doubt it. WE FIRMLY BELIEVE that an all too cumbersome legal machinery, the appointment of politicians to the Magistrates' benches, the ease with which confirmed criminals with "influence" manage either to escape with light sentences or with no sentence at all, are at the seat of the present crime wave, spurred on probably by the belief that Tammany Hall's vociferous condemnation of crime is only for the consumption of the honest citizen.

THE PROHIBITION QUESTION, believed to have been settled several years THE PROHIBITION QUESTION, believed to have been settled several years chairman of the General Unitarian Conference from 1915 to 1917, and president of the Free Religious Association from 1911 to 1919, in which year he left the Unitarian Church. He has been a director of the American Civil Liberties Union and the Union Against Militarism. Dr. Holmes has lectured throughout the United States and is the author of many books and pamphlets, including: "New Churches for Old," "Marriage and Divorce" and "Readings From Great Authors." He is an editor of "Unity," a magazine published in Chicago, and assistant editor of "The World Tomorrow," published in New York. 2293 SEVENTH AVE. PROHIBITION John Haynes Holmes Dr. Holmes was one of the signers of the Lincoln's Birthday Call in 1909, which resulted in the formation of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. A stunnch and uncompromising friend of the Negro's cause from the outset, Dr. Holmes is now a vice-president of the N. A. A. C, P. As pastor of the Community Church of New York, Dr. Holmes has made himself known throughout the country for his feathery and liberal utterances. He hold important offices in the Unitarian Church, being ago with the passing of an amendment to the Constitution and the Volstead Enforcement Act, will not down. A straw vote, taken by newspapers throughout the country, has just resulted in a five to one vote for the repeal of the prohibition amendment, and a still greater majority for the return of light wines and beer. THIS VOICE cannot be much longer ignored; and since the Federal, State and city governments have so far demonstrated that they are unable to enforce prohibition in its present form, it is high time to have a referendum on the whole subject. Expressed by Our Contemporaries If We Had 13 Months study of the proposed calendar of thirteen lunar days, of twenty-eight days each, shows the idea, on whole, to work out pretty well, with a few odd-day of the day the week. Assuming that the week, as would start with Sunday, it is interesting to see the fixed holidays would occur.

Washington's Birthday also be Sunday, giving another double holiday. The Fourth of July and Christmas would fall on sdays. Lincoln's Birthday would be a Thursday.

We Plead With You (From the Philadelphia Tribune.) men have fought and died for the right to vote. A mass of colored citizens suffer the anguish of hell in southern States because of disfranchisement. Yet lands of colored people who live in states where can vote sit at home and refuse to vote. Our freed educated Negroes appear to be the greatest allies. They howl about injustice. They shout grievances from the housetops like three-year-olds. But they will not use the most effective men possess to right the wrongs of which complain. George William Curtis made the following comment in one of his orations: When good men sit at home not knowing that is anything to be done, nor caring to know; curing a feeling that politics are tiresome and dirty, politicians vulgar bullies and braves—then it is not a government mastered by ignorance a government betrayed by intelligence; it the victory of the slums, it is the surrender of schools; it is not that bad men are brave, but men are infidels and cowards." The foregoing is applicable to the indifference exuded by thousands of Negroes. Many of the illusions come from the apathy of our educated men.

WRITES ESSAY ON NEGRO IN LITERATURE Writing under the title "The American Negro Enters Literature," Jim Tully in the March number of the "Literary Digest International Book Review" notices a number of new books either written by or about Negroes. Of "The New Negro," edited by Alain L. Locke, Mr. Tully says: "It is a direct challenge to the young white writers of the nation. In it are more than two dozen names of Negro authors, many of them showing splendid promise." Portugal's African Slave States Portugal's African Slave States By ALBIN E. JOHNSON (From The Nation, March 10) THERE was a time, not so long ago, when slavery was not regarded as highly reprehensible; nor was serfdom, nor peonage. Now, however, an international conscience frowns upon these ancient institutions; the new morality of Lincoln and Wilson and Viscount Cecil of Chelwood decrees that "involuntary servitude" shall no longer be tolerated on the earth. But, somehow, in Africa, when morality conflicts with economic law, when nature conspires against the ambitions of energetic Europeans who would wrest from the soil its latent wealth, the agents of Lisbon and Paris and London and Rome agree graciously to abolish slavery as such, and then announce to the credulous native that henceforth he need only engage in a little "compulsory labor" now and then. It is the purpose of this article to deal only with the Portuguese colonies of Angola and Mozambique, although it is fair to say that conditions similar to those existing there are to be found in mandated territories of Great Britain, France, and Italy. But since the latter governments have made no defense of "forced labor" nor attacked the Slaincy Protocol of Viscount Cecil, which is now being discussed and considered in the chancellories of Europe, it may be hoped that these Powers will discourage that notorious practice in the future. Portugal, however, has not only refused to forswear "forced labor," which Lisbon designates by the less obnoxious term of "compulsory," in her colonies but, actually argues that it is her duty to mankind and her obligation under the League Covenant "to exploit the richness and resources" of her African colonies, and that the end justifies the means. The conditions that are alleged to exist in Angola and Mozambique need not be reapplated. Professor Edward Alsworth Ross of the University of Wisconsin and Dr. R. Melville Cramer of New York City have devoted more than sixty printed pages to a report exposing them. The Nation, in its issue of August 12, 1925, printed the Rosa-Crumer document in part. That the charges are taken seriously is evident from the fact that Portugal saw fit to dispatch a top-heavy delegation to the Sixth League Assembly to argue her case, and colonial committees to the Temporary Slavery Commission's sittings at Geneva, and has made an extensive reply in detail to the allegations of the two Americans. But the Portuguese arguments in favor of "compulsory labor" and Alfonso Augusto da Costa's opposition to that part of Viscount Cecil's protocol deals with the discredited practice are unique in the annals of diplomacy. Hence their exposition. Article 3 of Viscount Cecil's Anti-Slavery Protocol, presented to the League Assembly and approved as the basis of an international convention, reads: The signatory states, recognizing the grave evils that may result from the employment of forced labor, except for essential public services, engage that, where it is necessary for special reasons to admit employment of forced labor, they will take all necessary precautions, particularly where labor belongs to the less advanced races, to prevent conditions analogous to those of slavery from resulting from such employment. Like much of Lord Cecil's famous Geneva Opium Convention, the chief article in the Anti-Slavery Protocol is rather innocuous. It permits "forced labor" for "public services," which may be made to constitute almost anything. And in other "special cases" it only suggests that "all necessary precautions" are left to the discretion of the authorities concerned. But even this theoretical and limited curtailment of their colonial administrative powers is distasteful to the Portuguese. "We must distinguish between compulsory (or forced) labor, which should be avoided as far as possible, and the obligation to work," declares the Portuguese Foreign Ministry, adding: The obligation to work is a law of nature, the scope of which the very progress of our civilization tends daily to enlarge. We must not forbid compulsory labor in such a way as to suggest to the native races that its prohibition implies for them a right to leness, and a permission to emancipate themselves from the law of work to which we are all subject. This would be dangerous to everyone and for the natives themselves, because their well being and development must proceed hand in hand with the economic development of the country. This development can only be achieved by the science, capital, and labor of the colonizing race, working in close co-operation with the native populations. Of the natives' antipathy to this "law of nature" to work the Portuguese make a great issue, pointing out that agricultural and industrial undertakings cannot hope to prosper without workmen and that it is their "right" to demand of the native population the labor necessary to carry on such undertakings. The natives, says La Costa, "are often wealthy and indolent" and refuse to work even for the highest wages. The native has few needs and makes his wives toll for his daily bread (explains Da Costa, espousing for the moment the cause of the weak or sex). Work has no attraction for the native and he does not feel the need of it. He often spends his day drinking native beer, taking snuff, and chatting. And, therefore, since the welfare of the individual is in direct proportion to the material and economic development of their country, it is quite comprehensible that the authorities should exercise, albeit with great prudence and all the necessary tact, a certain moral pressure, which they are entitled to use by the very nature of the task they are called upon to perform. On the other hand, while discussing the subject of women carrying the hod, the Portuguese spokesman hastens to assert that the same women do not seem to mind it a bit; in fact, these faithful wives of African Negroes simply love to toll for their men. The Ross report regarded it "as surprising that women with babies on their backs should be sent in place of their husbands to work on the public, highways." But Da Costa, pointing out that this is of course an "appeal to pity and humanitarian sentiment," says: But it has no significance. African Negroes never leave their children when they are young for fear that they will be stolen or eaten by wild beasts. They tie the babies upon their backs and carry them along when they are working about their houses or in the fields and even carry them during the intermimable dances of which, especially at night, the blacks are so food Ross further reports that when a man has been conscripted he often returns penniless to his village eight months or a year later. The American investigators learned that, according to the natives' own explanation, the planters often failed to pay them anything or treated them so cruelly that they were forced to run away before their work period expired, hence forfeiting their "fifty cents"; or else they alleged that the Portuguese cipalos, native police, or the official administradores, to whom the planters are often required to transmit the workers' pay, appropriated it for their own use. But the Portuguese answer contains a warning: It is not always advisable to believe what a native has to say. The native, as anyone will know who has studied his psychology, will always say what he thinks his interrogator wants him to say. A native returning after having worked for a specified time receives his wages. On his way home he finds opportunity to amuse himself and spend his money. When he reaches his village his wives ask him what he has done with his wages and naturally he then says that he has not been paid. And so it goes, according to the Portuguese, even in darkest Africa. And in this fashion, Item after item, Lisbon answers the Ross-Cramer Report. When the Americans declare that the natives are forced to build "useless roads," Da Costa is quick to challenge the meaning of the word "useless." The natives are generously allowed to "plant pineapples along the borders and so are the only people to profit by them." In conclusion the Portuguese point out the nation's brilliant record as a colonizing Power: how Lisbon abolished slavery fully three decades before it ceased to flourish in America; how Portuguese missionaries were spreading the Gospel of Christ over Africa and the Orient, and even in the New World, long centuries ago, and how the Lisbon Government today (in Macao and Angola) is doing its share in continuing the civilizing work of those early crusaders. Then, deferentially but specifically, Alfonso Augusta da Costa turns an accusing finger backwards and asks the distinguished persons who introduced the Ross-Cramer Report to the League to look into the condition of the black population in America, which "frequently complains that its members, although citizens of the United States by law, are not treated as such on account of difference of race and color." Spanking brutally, "forced labor" is a necessity in the present Portuguese scheme of colonial administration (and probably in British Kenya, the Cameroons, and Togoland), just as "opium farms" are indispensable in Portugal's cesspool of the Orient, Macao. Reservations to the recent International Ophim Convention, made by Portugal for Macao, which the American delegation even refused to dignify by participating in the final drafting, have for the time being rendered that questionable document wholly ineffective: Portugal's advance reservations to Lord Cecil's Slavery Protocol have strangled it before its birth. White Magazine Devotes April Issue to Discussions of "Social Equality" For the first time in this country, a national magazine published by white people has devoted an entire issue to the subject of social equality, the crux of Negro-white relations. The "World Tomorrow" for April is an unequivocal statement by Negro and write writers on the absurdity of the caste system in America. This April issue ranks "The World Tomorrow" as the bravest publication in the country. Heretofore only Negro papers have so much as even approached frankness in a thorough discussion of this subject, and no Negro publication has dared to devote an entire issue to the subject. This is the one question, rob. in a frank discussion of which more courage is required of a white person than of a black person. This document will make history and should be filed away by every individual, every social agency and every library in the country. The April issue can be had for 15 cents, and a year's subscription to "The World Tomorrow" costs only $1. To our friends and co-workers we wish to quote the following from the general description of the April number, made by the editors of the publication: "William Pickens argues for equality, not so much for the sake of Negroes themselves, as for the sake of all American citizens. 'If the Negro wins his fight for individual valuation, individual rights and individual liberty, he will put the civilization of man on a new high level. In say That Firestone "Investment" in Liberia By WILLIAM PICKENS Limerick failed to get a $500,000 loan from the United States Government, and we thought that the failure was good luck for Liberia; for a loan by a big government to a little one is like a loan from a corporation to a small politician—that is, the loan is a purchase. But after good luck saved Liberia from being strangled by $5,000,000 from Congress, the little republic decided to be choked to death by a $100,000,000 Rubber Company, an American corporation with less heart and soul than American politicians. It seems that little fellows like Liberia, when they get hungry, cannot resist temptation. Haytt's experiences were no lesson to Liberia. If the Firestone Company invests $100,000,000 in Liberia, this company will be the de facto government there; the Liberian Government will not even be de jure but only de nomine. The American gun must always follow the American dollar. That is really what American guns are made for.

EACH year in the United States about 107,000 babies die before they are a month old. This is appalling, and surely methods can be instituted to protect these innocent babies and give them a good start on life's journey. This is a big and important problem for social agencies, health associations, city and state and national health bureaus, combined with this an educational campaign against those diseases which produce in the child congenital debility and syphilis. Splendid progress has been made during the last ten years in reducing infant deaths after the first month of life; this is due to excellent work done in what is known as pre-natal care and the progress in the science and care of the infant feeding. birth and obstetrical infection. The program may be divided into the following divisions: pre-natal care of the expectant mother for five months before birth of the child; adequate obstetrical care at the time of birth by a competent physician The chief causes of death in infants before the end of the first month are congenital debility, syphilis, injuries to the child at the time of birth, premature birth, and sepsis and infection to both mother and child—what is known as obstetrical infection; any one of these being present may be a cause, overpowering the delicate vitality of a one-month-old infant. Many things can be done to avoid these diseases, mechanical injuries, premature votes April Issue "Social Equality" ing himself he will serve his fellow-man." "Social equality? I'm for it!" oxclaim three white Southern writers, one of them a granddaughter of slave owners. Howard J. Kaster, a Southern white student, writes: "I believe in social equality because it is impossible to believe anything else." "Zona Gale, with her mysterious gift of friendly ridicule, laughs the Nordics out of court. On being 'superior', she says, 'nobody can continue to assert that he is better than others and continue to remain so. There is some secret and scrupulous law which attends to this." "Adventures in Misunderstanding: a Personal Experience" is written by Eric Walroud. E. Franklin Frazier, colored, of Atlanta, and John Haynes Holmes, white, of New York, answer: "What is Social Equality?" Dr. Holmes comments: "The man who would deny social equality to his fellows has a hard time of it. What wonder that he wraps himself in the white sheets of ignorance and dons the peaked cap of superstition." The April issue also contains stimulating reviews of A. L. Locke's compilation of "The New Negro"; Walter F. White's new novel, "Flight"; Langston Hughes' "The Weary Blues"; and of the forthcoming book, "Toward Interracial Cooperation," by Geo. E. Haynes. This April issue of "The World Tomorrow" is itself a decided step in advance toward interracial cooperation by recognition of the fact of the unity of the human family. the proposition to let the Firestone Company invest $100,000,000 in Liberian liberties is being hold up by some robbers in the Liberian Legislature. We shall see. One hundred million dollars is a hard thing to refuse—even when we are not going to get any of it but are to have the sole privilege of seeing it being spent. We hate evil predictions, but predictions never change anything. If they miss, they miss. They may forlort but cannot forcoordain. We predict: If Liberia lets Firestone in now, within a generation the two hottest—and scorchingest and hardest—and roughest words in all the Liberian vocabulary will be FIRE and STONE.

The program may be divided into the following divisions: pre-natal care of the expectant mother for five months before birth of the child; adequate obstetrical care at the time of birth by a competent physician at home or in a hospital; and proper nursing care for at least two weeks after delivery. With such a program syphilis and venereal disease can be detected early and proper and adequate treatment given; prenature births and congenital debility can be prevented only by such care and precaution. Those women who are too poor to privately receive such attention should have social and municipal agencies provided to extend to them the privileges of such a program. Each infant who dies is a future citizen lost. In Harlem, this program is being pushed by such agencies as the Henry Street Settlement Nurses in co-operation with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.; the pre-natal clinic at the Urban League Building at 202 West 126th street; the Harlem Tuberculosis information Bureau at 202 West 126th street; Harlem Hospital and its social service department, and the Negro physicians practicing in this community, whose co-operation along scientific and philanthropic lines is enhancing the health and physical condition of the Negro population in Harlem.

And damning shipwrecks to the arms of death.— arms or death. I cannot see my star, my guiding star. When bitter disappointment, glooms my heart And doubt assails my faith with fiery dart. And loud my object spirit cries for light. And vainly flutters upward in the night. I cannot see my star, my guiding star. Tis then my thoughts return to Calyre's cross.
