The Filibuster "Bursts"
LED by the intrepid Congressman and soldier, Colonel Hamilton Fish, of New York, former Harvard football star and present-day reminder of Lincoln, Stevens and Grant, the House Republicans burst the filibuster bubble which Southern Democrats launched in Congress last week in opposing the authorization of the American Battles Monument Commission to erect in France a $30,000 memorial to the 369th, 371st and 372nd American Infantry Regiments, composed of Negro soldiers during the World War and depleted by forty per cent casualties in action on the trench battlefields.
Said Congressman Fish, in opening the debate, which closed with a vote of 227 to 116 in favor of the memorial: "I would be derelict to the memory of these colored soldiers in my own regiment and the white officers who were killed in that regiment. If I did not do everything in my power to see that they get proper recognition. There were 400,000 Negro soldiers in our army. There are 12,000,000 colored people in the country, and everyone is interested in seeing that recognition is given the soldiers of the colored race who made the supreme sacrifice."
Hon. Martin B. Muddlen, of the First Chicago District, Illinois, was on his feet, saying: "I am proud to be able to say to the men of the House that a majority of my constituents are black men and I am to be here to speak in their behalf. There has never been a time in all America's history when the black man was not in the forefront defending the American flag. No more distinguished privilege could be accorded to any man than the privilege of standing here today to do honor to these men who volunteered to give their lives in defense of their nation's honor."
Even Hon. Royal H. Weller, Democrat, representing the 21st Harlem District, of New York, broke with his southern party colleagues and supported the measure, saying: "I know of no more worthy measure than can come before this. Congress."
(Congressman Connally, of Texas, Democrat, and his geographical associates, however, were adamant in their opposition to the monument measure, then endeavored to dissolve themselves from discrimination and racial prejudice with smokerscreen allusions to the soldier contributions, white and black, which their states made. And the filbuster went merrily toward until the smooth working Republican machine, augmented by not a few northern Democrats, (Continued on Page 11)

WASHINGTON, May 3.
After a Democratic filibuster of three hours the House Wednesday passed by a party vote of 226 to 116 a bill authorizing the erection of a $30,000 monument in France to the Ninety-third Division, composed of Negro troops. In this force was the former Fifteenth New York Infantry, which is now the 360th. The Democrats, under the leadership of Representative Linthicum of Maryland, minority leader of the Foreign Affairs Committee, maintained that Congress should not take the designation of monuments out of the hands of

Distinguished Persons of Both Races and From Many Sections of Country Present—John Macy, Who Presided, Praises Work
A brilliant assemblage of more than four hundred persons thronged the Fifth Avenue Restaurant, 200 Fifth avenue, at the Second Annual Prize Award Dinner of Opportunity Magazine on May 1. Present were some of the most distinguished persons of both racial groups in the field of the arts, letters and music.
All of the judges in the sight divisions of the awards agreed that the entries, 1,276 in all, represented much finer work than the preceding year.

He said that in reading the winning compositions he had been particularly struck by their originality, freshness, frankness and vigor. Color. He declared, had nothing to do with artistic product: "The important thing," he said, "is that good work has been done; not that good work has been done by Negroes. It is the beauty of the poem which counts, not the fact that it was written by a Negro."
He also landed the racial attitude of the writers, "I was glad to see that these Negroes have taken themselves for granted; have frankly accepted the fact that they were black, and have let it go at that. They adopted neither the apologetic nor the belligerent attitude."

BESSIE COLEMAN AND WHITE PILOT IN 2000 FT. CRASH
POLICE OFFICERS ACCUSED OF CRUELLY BEATING MAN
Fractured Skull From Blows With Blackjac Led to Roy Sarcy's Deat in Bellevue Hospital Wife Soon to Be a Mother
That a merciless, ruthless, brutal beating, sustained while he was in the custody of detectives of the 135th street station, was the cause of Roy Sarcy's death in Bellevue Hospital, is the charge that is being filed this week by friends of the deceased man through the law firm of Hammond & Hecht. 220 Broadway. Evidence that proves that the man's skull was fractured from blows of a blackjack used by officers is said to be in the hands of the prosecutors. A charge of manslaughter will in all probability be brought against Detective Coogan, who is attached to the station. The name of other officers in the case could not be ascertained during the first part of the week. Sarcy had been in the hospital for about five days. Following the advice of his private physician, he went to Bellevue for treatment. The day before and up until the time of his death he was delirious.
William Lawson, 39 West 132nd street, who was Sarcy's landlord, and ten other persons are said to have been informed by the deceased man of the pitiless beating he endured from the officers. Some of the witnesses observed the cruel manner in which he was handled while being taken to the station, it is claimed.
A little over two weeks ago Sarcy was participating in a friendly game of poker at the residence of some associates in 132nd street. A guest by the name of Elmar Johnson. It is claimed, insisted upon on Sarcy returning $10 to him that he had lost in the game. When Sarcy refused, Johnson, other guests declared, attempted to snatch the bill from the winner's hand.
The bill was torn in half, both of the men retaining a half. Johnson ran out of the room and later sent a messenger to Sarcy demanding that he return the other part. When Sarcy refused to do this, Johnson went to the 135th street station and drew out a complaint that Sarcy had attempted to rob him.
When Sarcy was brought to the 135th street station, it is alleged that he was attacked by the officer who endeavored to force him to admit that he was guilty. Later when he was arraigned at the main headquarters he said he was beaten again.
The charge against Sarcy was dismissed when he was arraigned in the Washington Heights court. Funeral services for the alleged police victim were held Saturday. His wife is expecting to be a mother soon.

Man Who Cooked for "Stonewall" Jackson Dead
(Preston News Service)
WASHINGTON, Pa., May 3
Charles Brown, 80 years old, born
in slavery in Virginia, who cooked
the last meal General "Stonewall"
Jackson ate before the battle in
which he was fatally wounded, died
here Thursday in the Washington
County infirmary.
"FIGHTING BOB" HERE
Alderman Robert R. Jackson (Fighting Bob) was in the party of fifteen Chicago Aldermen in the city last week studying conditions here at first hand. After leaving here the delegation visited Boston. While here they stopped at the Waldorf.
Wills' body was cremated in the plane about 36 minutes after the fatal crash, when an excited speculator struck a match to light a cigarette, igniting the gasoline fumes from the plane and setting it on fire. Mrs. Meadows and a neighbor had made valiant efforts to remove the body from the wreckage shortly after the crash, but the weight of the plane was too heavy for them to lift.
A wrench slipped into the control gears of the plane is thought to have caused the aviator to lose control. Spectators watching the plane from a distance said it suddenly fell spinning to earth. After Miss Coleman fell from the cockpit. Wills is said by witnesses to have looked over the side of the plane, a short time before it crashed. It is believed he regained control of the plane after his companion had fallen, and would have landed safely, only for crashing into a tree.
BODY IS CREMATED.
Police were summoned to the scene by Raymond Meadows, son of the woman upon whose property the plane fell. Efforts were made by the police to save Wills' body from the flaming plane, but they were prevented from doing so by a gasoline explosion. One of the officers' trousers is said to have caught fire.
Wills and Miss Coleman were entangled by the Colored Welfare Association, according to Karl Westphal, 429 West Church street, with whom the aviator resided.
They were to have given an exhibition at the fair grounds this afternoon. Their fatal trip yesterday was a trial flight.
John T. Betsch, publicity manager for Miss Coleman, was arrested by police as the man who struck the match causing the plane to take fire. He was released after being held several hours. He attributed his action to excitement caused by the crash.
The Lawton L. Pratt Undertaking Company took the body of the aviatrix in charge, and will ship the remains to her home in Chicago for burial.
The charred remains of Wills were taken to the funeral establishment of the Marcus Conant Company to await shipping instructions. Connor Wills of Tallahassee, a brother, was to arrive in Jacksonville last night. The body is expected to be sent to Dallas for burial.

HIGH SCHOOL-COLLEGE CAMPAIGN ON
Alpha Phi Alpha Wages Seventh Annual Crusade on Ignorance
TWO
Go-to-High-School, Go-to- College Campaign Set for Week of May 10 to May 16
Announcement has just been made by Raymond W. Cannon, General President of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, designating and proclaiming the week of May 10 to 16 as the time for the operation of the Seventh Annual Go-to-High-School, Go-to-College Movement. This announcement had been keenly awaited by the members of the various chapters of the fraternity, who have been working zealously on plans to make this the most intensive campaign that has ever been held.
Something of the scope and origin of this movement can be obtained from a presentation recently given of the origin, purpose and operation of these campaigns by the general president, who is also the director of the Go-to-High School, Go-to-College Campaign. He says in part:
"Greek letter fraternities among college men are recognized as distinct American institutions, originally created by Americans to satisfy the needs of Americans. Therefore, we, as Americans, must have our fraternities to satisfy those needs which only fraternities can satisfy. Fraternities have become such a factor in college life that they are now recognized as a part of the, educational institutions in most instances. Certainly they constitute a part of the student's college life. They seem inseparable from the institutions recognizing them.
Already the machinery in 67 chapters has started to move and during the week set aside Alpha Phi Alpha men everywhere will work unceasingly to carry the message of larger and better education to the people. They will go to the musses and get the ear of boys and girls, encouraging them to stay in school; they will urge those not in school to enter or re-enter; they will insist that no one leave school until something has been accomplished.
State campaign managers will work under the direction of the national director and assign speakers to cover the small communities

The rural communities will be invaded, literature distributed, oratorical and essay contests held, and other unique methods employed to extend the idea of the movement far and wide.

White Salesman Attacks Operator
White Salesman Attacks Operator
Angered Because He Did Not Know Apartment Number of Client
Because James Boyce, elevator operator in the apartment building at 339 Washington Court, could not inform him the apartment number of a client, Otis Myer, a white repairman for the Hoover Vacuum Cleaner Company, struck the operator over the left eye with a sharp instrument Monday morning. Myer was found guilty of disorderly conduct when he was later arraigned before Magistrate August Glatzmayer and was fined $5. He testified that he hit the elevator operator because he swore at him for stepping over the corridor floor that he had just mopped. About 9 o'clock Myer entered the apartment building inquiring for a party whose name was unfamiliar to Boyce. Myer was sent to one apartment that Boyce suspected was the place. On returning to the lobby, he told Boyce that it was the wrong place. Several minutes later Myer returned to the building and insisted that Boyce locate the party he was seeking.
When Boyce told him not to walk over the floor, he became indignant. It was testified. Boyce said that he used profane language, but it was intended for the intruder. After he was struck by the white man, the elevator operator said that he picked up an iron pipe but was prevented from striking his opponent by a patrolman who came upon the scene.

J. A. Rogers Back From Carolina
Author = Journalist Impressed With Commercial Progress in Durham
After addressing a large number of high schools, universities, clubs, churches and other audiences, white and colored, J. A. Rogers, author and journalist, returned to New York City last week from a trip to the South.
Among the places at which he spoke were Howard, Virginia Union and Shaw Universities; Morgan, Bentuck, Slater and Hartshorn Memorial Colleges and A. & T. College of Geuensboro, N. C. He also addressed the employees of the Richmond Beneficial Insurance Co. the St. Luke Society, the Southern Aid Society, the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Co. and the Booklovers' Club of Norfolk, Va.
"North Carolina," he said, "is making rapid industrial progress, but still there is much segregation and injustice to Negroes. At Durham, N. C., I met the finest type of colored people I have seen anywhere. There is more co-operation and business progress there than anywhere else I know of. Many of them are very wealthy.
"Among the things that struck me most were the large number of light-colored people, particularly the women and the younger generation. At one large college in Raleigh, N. C., I counted more than 14 girls who would be accepted as white anywhere. Wages were, in many instances, very low. At Norlina, N. C., the scene of a lynching some years ago. I found that colored women were getting sometimes as low as 75 cents a day with meals, working from sunrise to sunset in the tobacco and cotton fields.
"But...perhaps the thing that struck me most in the South was the conspicuous absence of the American flag. I visited courtroom after courtroom to find only a picture of Gen. Robert E. Lee and his officers, or a lithograph of some local real estate or drug dealer on the wall. The same held true of most of the public Buildings, other than Federal."

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., May 1. Prosecutor John E. Toolan of Middlesex County has been directed by Governor A.

Governor Moore, who spent the week-end here with Mrs. Moore, said today that the result of Prosecutor Toolan's investigation will be reported to him. "If any evidence of lawlessness is developed in the Carteret case," the Governor declared, "immediate and forceful steps will be taken to punish the offenders."

BRITISH COURT HITS GARVEYITES
DECISION DEPRIVES U.N.I.A.OF BEQUEST OF $100,000
Supreme Court of Britis' Honduras Sets Aside Will of Late Isiah Morter, Naming Garvey Organization Residuary Legatee
By a decision handed down by the Supreme Court, sitting at Belzia, British Honduras, the Universal Negro Improvement Association is deprived of an estate willed to it of over $100,000. This became known through a special article by Lester A. Walton in Sunday's World. The bequest was made to the organization by Isiah Emmanuel Morton, a rich planter of Central America, who upon his death, May 19th, cut off his widow with $25 and named the U. N. I. A. residuary locator.
"C. S. Bourne, recently resigned as chancellor of the Universal Negro Improvement Association, Mine. Henrietta Vinton Darls, fourth vice-president, and other officials, were sent to Belize to cooperate with the association's legal representatives. It is said that at one time the lawyers for Mrs. Morter would have considered setting the case for $10,000, but this suggestion was frowned on by Garveyers." Chief Justice Sisnett of the Supreme Court handed down the decision in the case. Commenting on the deceased leaving over $160,000 to the Universal Negro Improvement Association for the African Redemption Fund, the court said:
Whatever may be the subsidiary objects of the U. N. I. A. and African Communities League, the principal object is the redemption of Africa. This redemption can be effected by peaceable and constitutional methods or by means of force of arms, or other forcible means. That forcible means are contemplated and being prepared for can be gathered from the rules and regulations for Universal African Leagues of the U. N. I. A. and A. C. I. These rules and regulations, although carefully worded, are more in keeping with the rules of a militant body than a peaceful body of workers, as they speak of military skill and discipline, 'military commander.' 'court, martial,' etc.
'And the Universal Ethiopian anthem is as follows:'
Ethiopia, thou land of our fathers,
Thou land where the gods loved
to be.
As storm clouds at night sudden gatherers.
Our armies come rushing to thee.
We must in the fight be victorious.
When swords are thrust outward to gleam.
For as will the victory be glorious.
When led by the red, black and green.
Chorus.
Advance, advance to victory.
Let Africa be free.
Advance to meet the foe with the might.
Of the red, the black and the green.
"From this verse is clearly shown the militant nature of the fight referred to therein" continues Chief Justice Sisnett. "And I

Kept Diary of Holdups in Which He Figured
Walving the examination in the Washington Heights Court Friday morning on a charge of robbery. Richard Evans, 206 W. 141st street, the alleged literary holdup man, was held without bail by Magistrate Abraham Rosenbluth for Special Sessions. According to Assistant District Attorney Ewald. Evans has been involved in over fourteen holdups during the last six months. Four of the alleged victims identified Evans as being the bandit who robbed them.
Following a chase of eight blocks, Evans was captured by Patrolman Forster of the 122nd police station early last Tuesday morning. At the time of the arrest a 23-calline revolver was found in his possession. In the same pocket with the weapon the policeman said that he found a diary containing a complete account of the hold-ups in which the man had taken part in. Several poems were also in the note book. One verse was captioned "Crooked Things I Can Do."

DETROIT, Mich., May 3.—Argument over mistrial in the case of Dr. and Mrs. Sweet and their nine co-defendants halted progress of the cases in Detroit Thursday, according to reports received by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It was discovered that Charles Thorne, one of the jurors, 82 years old, had sat in the Circuit Court within the last two months and was therefore disqualified for jury service. Although neither Clarence Darrow, chief counsel retained by the N. A. A. C. P., nor the prosecuting attorney was anxious to ask for a mistrial, it was decided to argue the question before Judge Frank Murphy before proceeding with the trial.
Up to the present, Attorney Darrow and Thomas F. Chawke have grilled witnesses endeavoring to show that the only purpose of the "Waterworks Improvement Association" was to prevent Dr. Sweet from occupying his home. Cross-examination of witnesses by the N. A. A. C. P. attorneys was also directed toward breaking the police story that there was no crowd around Dr. Sweet's home before the fatal shooting from the house occurred. Boy witnesses admitted seeing stones thrown at the Sweet home.
WHITES CHANGE TESTIMONY.
Nine witnesses deny mob spirit existed at time Breiner was shot. "I heard a volley of shots—saw the flash of fire; then Leon Breiner yelled, 'My God. I'm shot!' I started to run away but the first step I took I was shot.
This was the testimony Friday of Eric Haughberg, a white witness for the state in the trial of Henry Sweet, before Judge Frank Murphy in recorder's court. Haughberg's testimony added to the structure of evidence that Prosecuting Attorney Toms and his chief assistant, Lester Moll, have been building around the defendant. Defense Counsel Clarence Darrow and Thomas F. Chawke have battled to mar the state's picture of the crime, and have succeeded to considerable extent in drawing from witnesses admissions that a crowd had assembled in the vicinity, that stones were hurled at the Sweet residence prior to the shooting, and that people in the neighborhood were opposed to the presence of Negroes.
Of nine witnesses questioned Friday, all denied the existence of a crowd. Haughberg stated that there were a few people on the street. He said he was upstairs shaving, unaware of impending trouble in the community, when he heard a volley of shots. He pushed downstairs, he said, and was standing a few feet from Breicher when the second volley rang out. Someone carried him

Into a garage, Haughberg testified after which he lost consciousness, recovering later in Receiving Hospital.
Mary Henley testified she was upstairs changing her dress when she heard shooting and a bullet crashed through the door near where she was standing. She went downstairs, she said, and saw several people, some of whom were carrying away a man who had been shot.
OTHER WITNESSES TESTIFY.
Edward Anderson, also white,
said he was attracted to the Sweet
home by "curiosity" after he had
decovered that traffic had been
decorated around the place. He
estimated there were from 50 to 100
people in the street, near the corner
of Garland and Charlevoix. He
denied knowing that a colored
family had moved into the district,
and did not change his testimony
after Darrow read from the trans-
cript of his testimony in the former
trial in which he stated "he
had heard about it."
Fred A. Benoit, another white witness, said the neighborhood was quiet on the evening of the shooting and that he went to sleep on the porch of his home after dinner. Later, accompanied by two acquaintances, he said he walked down to the corner of Garland and Charlevoix because of "curiosity." The most people he saw congregated, he declared, were two or three in a place. Darrow read from Benoit's testimony in the former trial in which he admitted seeing many people standing on the sidewalk and street.

Janitor Knocks Out His Boss
Janitor Knocks Out His Boss
Says Unrecognized House Owner Called Him a
Failure to recognize his employer Friday proved the downfall of Frank Joseph, 30, janitor at $21 West 144th street, when he paid a $2 fine in Night Court for disorderly conduct, and probably lost his job, in the bargain, for striking the landlord of the building, Louis Rosenfeld, white, 3721 Nautilus avenue, Seagate, Coney Island. According to Rosenfeld's story to Magistrate Vitale, Joseph refused to chase a group of molesting children from in front of the premises, when he directed him to do so. It was the janitor's contention that
he did not know Rosenfeld owned the building.
"I'm the landlord; go ahead and do as I say," Rosenfeld declared he warned Joseph.
"But my janitor not only disobeyed, but, in the bargain, he called me vile name and knocked me down, causing my nose to bleed."
It was Joseph's contention that he had not been aware that the man was his employer, since he was hired by an agent living at 1685 Amsterdam avenue.
"I went over to see the agent to find out, but this landlord called me a vile name and struck me first, so I had to strike back in self-defence."
Joseph was arrested by Policeman Bernhardt, of the West 162d street station.
REFUSED TO MAN PUMPS.

Fire at St. Mark's New Church Quickly Put Out
That a fire in the half million dollar St. Mark's M. E. Church, adjacent to the Dorrence Brooks Square, which is near completion, caused no serious damage was reported Saturday, following an investigation by the Fire inspector. While a concert was being given in the basement and a meeting being held in one of the trustee rooms last Monday night, four hanging doors that were in a crate in the entrance to the main auditorium caught on fire as a result of spontaneous combustion, it is said.
Several boys who were playing on the outside of the edifice were first to see the blaze. Rushing to the church entrance, the youths gave the warning to the officials. Several minutes after the fire department reached the scene the fire was extinguished. The building being fireproof, there was no damage other than the loss of the doors.

Colored Picture Operators Will Be Placed in Roosevelt and Douglas
General Manager Pekelner Has Kept His Word and Took Matter Up With New Owners Coming Into the Theatres at Lenox Avenue and 143rd Street and Seventh Avenue and 145th Street Within Next Few Days
THE colored motion picture operators, who have conducted a dignified campaign in trying to get into those theatres catering exclusively to Negroes, will have every reason to feel satisfied that they are fighting on just grounds when the news comes to them that the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres within the next few days will place colored men to operate the booths in the above houses.
We have personally taken our place on the firing line for our boys, for us at least, there was nothing else we could do in the matter and it was a pleasure to confer with Manager Pekelner, who, as we have pointed out in the past, has tried his best to work along humorous and sympathetic lines with us ever since he came here.

Arcadia Hall Jammed With Hundreds of Brooklynites Last Friday Night at Su
The Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres this week will pass into the hands of the M. and S. Circuit, one of the largest in the theatrical world in this city. The gentlemen behind the M. and S. are the largest independent owners of the theatres in Greater New York and control about thirty houses. We are firmly of the opinion that Mrs. Downs of the New Lincoln Theatre, who returned recently from her trip to the West and South America looking the picture of health, will give our boys the chance which the manager of the Lincoln, Raymond Snyder, also needs should be given our operators.
Before the end of the summer we hope to see every theatre in this neighborhood employing colored operators. Down on Leah street our old friend Billie Burke, who was dramatic director for the New Lincoln Theatre when Mrs. Downs first presented dramatic playlets, has been employing colored operators and yet the house is not in that the august union would call "the black belt." With the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres employing colored motion picture operators, they will be right in line with the Renaissance. La Layette, Gem and the Orient. All we are asking is a chance for these colored men to get work in their own neighborhood in those places catering to people of their own race as they will never be able to break into the bigger houses in other sections in this city.

Arcadia Hall Jammed With Hundreds of Brooklynites Last Friday Night at Superior Club Dance.
Vincent Lopez and Fletcher Henderson drew hundreds of Brooklynites to Arcadia Hall in behalf of the Superior Social and Athletic Club. The boys were all diked out in their "tuxes" to meet the populace and from early evening until early morning joy was really unconfined.
During the first part of the affair Vincent Lopez's orchestra held the stage and dished up popular tunes for the merry gathering. After midnight Fletcher Henderson and his crack aggregation of musicians arrived at the hall and took the house by storm.
This was the annual affair of the Superiors and it went over with a bang. We understand that the boys are planning a mid-Summer night's festival during the next few months and if past performances speak for anything it is safe to prodlet another big success for the popular Brooklynites.
10th Annual Martin Recital Should Be a Big Success
The program for the 10th annual Martin recital and dance at Manhattan Casino. Friday evening, May 14, will be one of the most artistic the school has ever presented. Miss Sonoma Talley, who was recently mentioned in "Musical America" as ranking among the six leading pianists of our race, will play the Hungarian Fantasy by Liszt, with the orchestra. Miss Talley is also one of the faculty of the school.
The other soloists who will appear on the program and all promising students of the school, and it is with great pride the school will present them. Miss Iva Neugen, soprano, will sing "Ermani Invoni" by Verdi, with the orchestra: Miss Louise Huges, violin concerto No. 7. by DoBeriot, with the orchestra, and Elwood Scott will play with the Young People's Orchestra Accolay Concerto. Miss Addie Davis will be the soloist with the chorus.
The recital is scheduled to begin at 8:30 and we request our guests to be in their seats at that hour, if possible, as it is our aim to keep up the reputation of the school and begin on time, so that the dance can commence at 10:30. Fletcher Henderson and John C. Smith will both be on hand to play for the merry throng of dancers who will be present.
Versatile Trio Entertained
Dr. and Mrs. A. Robinson of Detroit gave a most wonderful supper-dance at their home, Friday, April 22, in honor of the Versatile Three, Messrs. Haston, Mills and Tuck of London, England, who were playing at the Temple Theatre.
Among those present were: Dr. and Mrs. James Almes and their beautiful daughter, Miss Marlon, who sang, danced and played during the evening and was really the life of the party; Mr. Chester Almes, Dr. and Mrs. Chas, Green, Dr. and Mrs. J. B. Goggins, Attorney and Mrs. Chas, Roxborough, Count Earl Cuzzins of golf fame, Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Swan, Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Banks, Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Roberts, Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Lee, Mr. and Mrs. Romain Johns, Mrs. Hazel Hughes, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Parker, Mrs. Marjorie Saunders, Mr. James Goggins, Dr. and Mrs. Pope of Washington, D.

LOTTIE GEE RETURNS
After a successful European appearance in some of the leading places on the other side, Miss Lotte Gee returned to this country last week and judging from her looks she is in the best of health and spirits. Miss Gee went abroad with the "Chocolate Kiddies" and later joined Sissie and Bliss. Her friends are giving her a right royal welcome home.

Renaissance Offers a Number of New Pictures
For Thursday and Friday, May 6 and 7, at the Renaissance Theatre, the feature picture will be "Why Women Love," with Blanche Sweet and a distinguished supporting cast of such well-known characters as Robert Frazer, Russell Simpson, Charles Murray and Dorothy Sebastian. This is another one of the screen's big thrillers and an exceedingly interesting picture, "Irish Luck," with Thomas Melghan and Lois Wilson, will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre. Saturday, Sunday and Monday, May 9, 10.
This is a true Tom Meighan picture, with a number of novel and exciting scenes. Lady Luck runs riot throughout. The manner in which a New York cop suddenly finds himself mistaken for an English nobleman is amusing yet decidedly interestingly brought out. Love, that age-old theme, too, runs well throughout the picture and, of course, the chap with the Irish luck finally wins an English nobleman for his bride. The picture is one that will hold attention from beginning to end.
"The Merry Widow," that fascinating stage success that has been adapted to the screen by Eric Von Stroheim, starring Mae Murray and John Gilbert and which was picked by noted critics as the best picture produced in 1925, will be seen at the Renaissance Theatre, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, May 15, 16 and 17. Renaissance theatre-lovers will thus have an opportunity of seeing this wonderful production at their favorite theatre. Another big attraction coming to this theatre is "Bronze" with Colleen Moore. This picture is that charming actress' best achievement since her showing in "Sally." No doubt both these pictures will be awaited with interest and seen by capacity audiences at each screening.
Social Rounders at Renaissance Casino Friday
The coming Friday evening will find things enlivened around 138th street and Seventh avenue as on that occasion the popular Social Rounders will be staging their spotlight dance at the Renaissance Casino.
John C. Smith and his melody singers and orchestra will be on hand to make things joyful for the merry gathering, which will dance to the latest popular tunes.

"Goohered," a play with music, presenting aspects of Negro life in South Carolina, and emphasizing the part played by a "conjure" woman, is now in rehearsal for presentation in a Harlem theatre, according to a recent announcement.
The text of the play was written by Casper Garrett, at present doorman at the Forty-ninth Street Theatre, and the music and lyrics were composed by Hall Johnson, colored violinist and composer, music teacher in Harlem, who played in the orchestra of "Shuffle Along." Additional lyrics have been written for the piece by Langston Hughes, whose poem, "Weary Blues," was awarded first prize last year in the "Opportunity" Magazine Contest.
The leading role, that of the conjure woman, is being rehearsed by Abbie Mitckell, well known on the musical comedy stage for the past twenty years.
Mr. Johnson said the first performance would probably be given about May 31st.
"This is an attempt to bring before the public a truer picture of Negro rural life than has been seen in the jazz revues," declared Mr. Johnson in announcing the production: "We shall try to represent the real dancing as it is done on the plantation, buck-and-wing, shake-downs, the ancestors of the Charleston which is now so much in vogue. The dancing will be a feature of the production, although like the music and text it will be subordinate to the picture we shall try to draw of Negro life. I am making a big feature too of the choral singing, in which Negro spirituals and work songs will have a prominent place."

Farmers and Bacharachs Broke Even in Big Double-Header
Farmers and Bacharachs Broke Even in Big Double-Header
Lundy, Cummings, Garcia and Marcell Turn in the Day's Most Brilliant Performance Before Enthusiastic Gathering at Farmers' Oval
THE Farmers broke even with the Bacharach Giants of Atlantic City in the first double-header before the largest crowd of the season at Farmers' Oval Sunday. The Eastern Mutual Colored League aggregation won the opening game by a score of 10 to 6 and the Farmers came back in the twilight tilt to even matters with a 10 to 5 triumph. Mackey, the Glendalers' new southpaw spitball hurler, was the Bacharachs' victim in the first game. They tore right into him in the opening frame and took him apart to see what made him tick, with six runs being the result of their examination. Lefty Grier held the Farmers in check for three innings, but weakened in the fourth and allowed four runs. He was felt for two more runs in the next two frames and was succeeded by Roberts, who sent down the homesters in great style in the closing frames. Charlie Miller limited the Jerseyites to six hits and but for sloppy fielding by Shortstop Quigley would have looked better in the Bacharachs' run column. Johnson and Roberts were thumped soundly by the Farmers.
White and Jones did some splendid plain and fancy hitting, respectively, in the opener. The center fielder got four singles in five times at bat, while Jones got three, a single, triple and homer in the same number of chances. Marcell made two doubles in four times for the Giants, while Bunny Hirten had the Farmers' longest hit, a double, as one of two hits in three chances. Cummings hammered out a homer for the Bacharachs and White obliged with a triple in the second game.
Visitors' Infield Shines.
The Pacharach infield, composed of Manager Dick Lundy, Cummings, Garcia and Marcell, performed brilliantly in the first game, pulling Grier and Roberts out of several hot spots. Marcell was replaced at third by Brown in the second game and the change failed to prove beneficial. Brown being runner-up to Quigley of the Farmers with three errors. Lou Heizer played a bang-up game at second base for the Farmers in each game, while Raskin, a new first baseman, featured at bat in the nightcap with two timely singles in four trips. Howie Loesch also gave the Farmer rooters a big thrill in the nightcap by stealing home.
The Farmers taking a page out of the Bacharachs' book, got the jump in the first tuning of the closing affair and remained in front throughout. Kinney started the fun by drawing a base on balls. Heizler attempted a sacrifice bunt and reached first on Johnson's fumble. Quigley advanced Kinney and Heizler with a neat sacrifice bunt, after which Loesch singled, scoring the pair. On the throw-in Loesch went to second, from where he scored on Raskin's bingle. The Farmers added two markers in the second and after the Bacharachs failed twice in the fifth, scored three more in the sixth. Two more runs in the seventh gave the homesters their total of seven and the Bacharachs rolled up three points in the last two frames.
Reed walked in the first frame of the opener. Cummings hunted to Mackey, who threw badly to Raskin, and White heat out a high infield hounder, filling the bases. Farrell then dropped a Texas Leaguer behind Quigley for two bases that scored Reed and Cummings and sent White to third. White raced home on Lundy's infield out. Marcell walked and was forced by Garcia-for the second out. Farrell scoring on the play. Jones then drove one over the fence for four bases, scoring Garcia ahead. The scores:

The Farmers found Simons, the Giants' hurler, for 11 hits, while the Lincolns got 10 off Williams. The homesters were guilty of five errors. Quigley making two and Loesch, Crist and Parro being guilty of one aplece. The batting of Scott, Huspeth and Loesch were features.

BEFORE the end of another week the associated clubs that make up the New York Tennis Assn will have decided whether they intend to make some real effort to build up tennis in the Empire State or not.
BY their action at the annual meeting on Monday night they will have shown their response to the call of this newspaper, speaking for the benefit of players and fans alike, when we showed the impotency of the association and the complacent attitude of the players that developed the game in the past.
WE do not classify our part as an agitator, but we do say that we have tried with an earnestness unmatched to bring the true conditions to the attention of the tennis public with no hope of glory for ourselves beyond the benefit that will come to a grateful tennis loving and playing fraternity.
IF we have succeeded, the tennis players and fans will be the ones responsible for the change. We trust that we have not made bad friends. We do not think so, for we believe that if in our articles we have pointed out by inference the shortcomings of any man or set of men we did it with a motive to help the game, and there is no doubt to our mind that such help is needed.
WE trust that the association will elect a set of officers capable of putting it in its rightful place among the bodies and restoring the prestige that was fast ebbing away—officers that can show the way to progress, and who by their endeavor will instill confidence and respect, which will automatically set in motion the co-operation needed for a successful and progressive season of tennis, laying the foundations for truly great things for the association to do for the future.
THE lethargy that has existed so long might make it hard at the start, but the right men will let no obstacles impede their progress, and once started everything will seem easy to them.
THEIR first task should be to make the association mean more in the future to the tennis fraternity than it means today, and to increase its sphere of usefulness in our community by making it take a militant stand in the advocacy of the advantage tennis affords our youngsters as a budder of manhood and character, as a moulder of a clean, healthy body, with great vigor and strength, and the unfolded environments that surround tennis has been responsible for its place in the front rank as the cleanest of all sport universally played.
WE should like to see about thirty junior players among the clubs this summer, and this task the association can set itself to do; and with the proper co-operation of the clubs, if they mean to help in the progress of the game, this can be brought about with little sacrifice on the part of any, and with great benefit to all.
WE offer to our readers this week advance information on the tennis rating of the players of the New York Tennis Association which was reported to the association at their annual meeting Monday night. May 5. by the Rating Committee made up of L. E. Spooner, Atty. H. Eustace Williams and Ashby L. Stephens.

"Wash" Passes Away
Frank Washington, for many years a barber at the Association Barber Shop in the days when the late Jesse Shipp held sway at the Seventh avenue place, passed away suddenly early Monday morning. In those days when Bert Williams opened the shop for his father, "Wash" was one of the most popular barbers and was widely known among the athletes who made the place their headquarters. He is said to have been seen on Seventh avenue a few hours previous to his death.

PHILIDELPHIA, May 1.—Hilldale Park, the home of the world's colored champions, was the scene of an auspicious opening, when following the customary frills of an opening day the home team took the Bachacharri Giants into camp after a torrid ten innings struggle by the score of 5 to 4. Headed by the Masonic Band of forty musicians both clubs marched to the flag pole in center field and with the 10,000 fans standing with heads bared, Frank Warfield and Dick Lundy, respective field generals, hotested the flag to the tune of our national anthem. Hortorable John A. Sparks then sent the teams into action by tossing up the first ball. After all these preliminaries Dick Lundy's Bacharachs started out with the intention of ruining the opening fracs so far as the home club and fans were concerned.
They rolled up two markers in the first frame and added another in the fourth; these tallies assumed gigantic proportions as the game wore on especially with Arthur "Rats" Henderson going like a house afire and yielding but two hits in the first four innings. In the first inning Cockrell retired Redd, the first man to face him, on strikes. The usually dependable Judy Johnson started his weird day afield by scooping up Cummings' grounder and throwing it into the crowd behind first base and Cummings pulled up at second. Chaney White socked a double to left field and Cummings scored and White rode home on Marcell's double and Johnson's second error. Judy's third boot came in the 6th inning on Jones' splash and was unproductive to the enemy.
Hildale found themselves in the 5th inning and scored two runs on successive singles by Rivers, Stevens and Cookrell and Briggs force out. Two more home tallies in the 7th put Boulden's squad in the van, but the Bacharachs came right back in the 8th and tied up matters. George Carr opened the tenth inning by hitting Henderson's first pitch against the center field fence for a double. Bizz Mackey almost duplicated his feat, but Chaney White horned in for a bit of thievery and picked his drive off the boards. Judy Johnson, then, must the wildest kind of excitement atoned for all of his errors by smoting one of Rats' benders to the left field fence for a double, breaking up the game. Clint Thomas gambled about the center pasture and fielded sensationally. Dick Lundy, Frank Warfield and Garcia, the new Cuban second sacker, put u pa strong game on the defense. "Deep" Rivers, the new outfielder in the Hildale camp, collected two hits on his first two trips to the plate.

Royal Giants Suffered First Defeat of Season Last Sunday Afternoon
THE Bushwicks discovered on Sunday that daylight saving not only means economical use of sunshine but also preservation of ball games, when they
avenged their only defeat of the season by taking the Brooklyn Royal Colored Giants over the jumps twice. A crowd more than 10,000 people enjoyed almost five continuous hours of good and not-so-good baseball. The first game went the regulation distance, but consumed two hours, the Bushwicks winning by a score of 10 to 0, and the nightcap went eleven innings before Fred Homan's charges won by 9 to 5, and made a perfect day of it. An abundance of errors was a handicap to Pitchers Carl Dietjen and Lefty Hoarjoy in the opener, the Bushwicks being guilty of five and the Royals three. There were less errors and better work all around in the second game, which for six innings was marked by a hurling duel between Jack Warhop, the Bushwicks' underhand expert, and Cannonball Dick Redding.
Hilldale Takes Both Games From the Lincolns at League Opening
The world's champion Hildale Dale Club opened the baseball season in the best form last week. After defeating the Bacharach Giants in Philadelphia in a ten-inning game on Saturday, they journeyed to New York and won a doubleheader from the Lincoln Giants Sunday.
Ideal weather conditions aided in getting out a crowd of more than 6,000 fans, many of whom were Philadelphiaians who came over on an excursion to root for their team.
The Lincoln's hope of victory had been placed in Chambers, the young left-hand pitcher who has been doing most of the mound work for his team this season. But on Sunday Chambers was not in his best form and was beaten in the opening game by a score of 18. The Lincoln's tied the score twice during this game and forced Hilldale to use its full strength in winning. The visitors used two pitchers, Henry and Lee, and both were hit hard. Howard, another young pitcher, was the choice of Manager Lloyd for the second game and when he proved to be easy for the heavy-hitting Darbites, the local team seemed to lose further interest in this game. They were completely outclassed and beaten by a score of 17.1. The batting of Thomas, centerfielder for Hilldale, was a feature. Thomas made two home runs and a two-bagger in four times in that.
The Lincoln's weakness, the lack
of experienced pitchers, will be
strengthened by the addition of
several new pitchers by next Sunday
when the Bucharach Giants
will play a doubleheader at Pro-
tory Oval. Nutall and Harper,
formerly of the Bucharachs, to
together with two other men not so
well known in the East, will join
the local pitching staff during the
week.

Royal Giants Suffer of Season Last
THE Bushwicks discover saving not only mean but also preservation avenged their only defeat of thelyn Royal Coloured Giants over more than 10,000 people on hours of good and not-so-governed the regulation distance. Bushwicks winning by a score went eleven innings before 10 to 5, and made a perfect dismiss was a handicap to Pitcher Hoarroy in the opener, the L and the Royals three. There work all around in the second was marked by a hurling duel Bushwicks' underhand expert ding
Smith, the Royals' second baseman, was the outstanding figure of the day. He got four hits out of five times at bat in the second and two out of five in the first, besides being without fielding six all afternoon. One of his seven hits was a double, and two bases was the furthest that any hit went for. Jack McVoy, Bushwick first sacker, also enjoyed a good day. He made four hits in nine times at bat and played a smart game at first base. He got two doubles, one of which went to put when he tried to stretch it into a triple. Brooks' center fielding for the Royals was a thing of joy and beauty in each game.
Herb's Heroics Halfway.
Southpaw Harb Herb Saved the first game for the Dexter Parkers and came mighty near losing the second. The nightcap was a thriller from the sixth inning on. Warhop and Redding twirled shutout ball for five innings and the former gave ground first in the sixth inning, when three hits and four notted the Giants two runs. The soothaven athletes did not solve Redding until the seventh, when they forged to lead with three runs. Royals tied it up again on Steen in the ninth, and Holland turned back the Bushwicks when they threatened to knock off Flourney in their half of the same frame.
Sen and Holland got by without trouble in the tenth but each gave way in the eleventh. The Royals getting two tallies and the Bushwicks coming back with three.

Racial Problem Is Among Great Issues in America, Says Durkee
President of Howard University Also Strikes Out Against Anti-Prohibitionists
MODERN education and prohibition were praised at the annual meeting and joint dinner of the Social Union of the Long Island Baptist Association and the Baptist Church Extension Society of Brooklyn and Queens held last Wednesday night at the Hotel St. George. Howard P. Patterson, president of the Social Union, presided over the business meeting and Orrin R. Judd, president of the Extension Society, introduced the speakers.
The Rev. Charles J. Sears, secretary of the New York Baptist City Mission, and executive secretary of the Extension Society, and the Rev. J. Stanley Durkee, the new pastor of Plymouth Church on the heights and president of Howard University, were speakers. The Rev. Rivington D. Lord of the First Baptist Church in Williamsburgh, pronounced the invocation and the Rev. J. Earl Edwards of the Queens Baptist Church the benediction.
"Our racial problem, the World Court and prohibition are the greatest issues in the United States today," declared Dr. Durkee. It is by these issues we will prove whether we are able to bear the influx of immigration and assimilate it, and prohibition will prove the test. If we do not uphold it, we go back morally and spiritually, not because of prohibition but because we no longer obey the law because we are not in residence with our Constitution. A man who advocates the changing of the prohibition law is un-Christian and un-American."
In speaking of Sunday sports, Dr. Durkee declared that he was opposed to the commercialization of the Lord's Day by baseball and movies. He declared that ministers like Bishop Manning and others who try to compromise on Sunday sports and on prohibition of baseball man who rocks the boat. He urged the use of brains as applied to religion, and declared that science and religion were not opposed and that a thorough understanding of chemistry would save the church. Dr. Sears also made a plea for bringing the forces of education in line with religion. He declared that with the exception of a small group the colleges were not open to students of any different to it, because of the attitude toward science and higher education.
"The effect of our attitude in this matter is affecting our foreign mission field, for many cultured students in the East are rejecting our mission and fotters their minds," said Dr. Sears, "Another obstacle in this
Weak in Back and Sides
"Before the birth of my little girl," says Mrs. Lena Stancil, of R. F. D. 2, Matthews, Mo., "I was so weak in my back and sides I could not go about. I was too weak to stand up or do any work. I felt like my back was coming in two. I lost weight. I didn't eat anything much and was so restless I couldn't sleep nights. My mother used to take CARDUI For Female Troubles
so I sent to get it. I improved after my first bottle. Cardui is certainly a great help for nervousness and weak back. took six bottles, was well and strong, just dined fine from then on. Cardui helped me so much."

Johnson Implicated in Moore Street Hold U
An alarm for a stolen automobile last Sunday night caused the arrest of one of three men, said to have been armed, who, it is alleged, held up and robbed about 10 patrons in a former liquor store, and O'Neill, 54, of 244 East 89th street, Manhattan, one of the patrons, was clubbed into insensibility by the bandits. Only $12 was taken.
Shortly after the report of the stolen automobile had been broadcast to all precincts. Detectives Carroll and Downey saw the car in front of the Moore street address. As they were examining it, three men backed out of the former saloon. The detectives seized one, but the other two escaped. The prisoner described himself as Anthony Johnson, 17, of 166 Leonard street. O'Neill went home after being attended by an ambulance surgeon.

Cop Fell Trying to Arrest Crap Shooters
When a report came to the Clarson avenue prescinct on Sunday that a dice game was in progress at Quincy and Downing streets, Patrolman James Kane was sent to investigate. He found the game and approached it on the run. Somebody yellied "Cheese it!" A large number of prospective prisoners disappeared in a large number of different directions. Kane thought for a moment he had to leave the house just as he was about to grab them he tripped upon the curbstone and fell. Dr. Greenwood, summoned from the Cumberland Street Hospital, treated the policeman for lacerations of the face and hands. Kane reported sick and went home.

Dr. Proctor Honored by Association of Congregational Churches Meeting in Brooklyn, May 13
The New York City Association of Congregational Churches, comprising churches in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and the suburbs, with an enrollment of 65 churches, consisting of 81,000 members, will have as its presiding officer the Rev Henry Hugh Proctor, the Nazareth Congregational Church of Brooklyn, for its Spring meeting, which will be held Thursday, May 13, at St. Mark's Congregational Church, Decatur street, between Ralph and Patchen avenues.
At the Fall session of the association, held at the Tompkins Avenue Congregational Church of Brooklyn, Dr. Proctor was elected assistant moderator to the Rev R. Michael which time he has accepted the call of a church in Boston, Mass., so the assistant becomes moderator.
This will be the first time the association has met with the St. Mark's Congregational Church and the first time a colored man has presided over this organization. Sixty years ago Henry Ward Boecher preached the dedicatory sermon of this church and it is a remarkable coincidence that, in recognition of this anniversary, one of the race for whom Mr. Beecher made such a strong plea, both at home and abroad, should be thus honored. Mr. Boecher was nominated for this position by the Rev. A. C. Garner, pastor of the Grace Congregational Church of Manhattan, and there will be a large representation at this meeting from the five colored churches of the metropolitan area, which contain a membership of 1,545.

come. Mrs. Myrtle Paschal entertained with vocal selections, followed by a select reading by Mme. Agnes Gordon, celebrated elocutionist from New England. Mrs. McMullen of the Ralph Avena Church of Brooklyn also appeared on the program, as did Mrs. E. Jones of Metropolitan Baptist Church of New York, assisted by talent from the literary society of her church; Mrs. C. B. Nelson, O. K. Wilkinson of Lebanon Church of Brooklyn, Program of Watkins of Abysasia. R. G. Harris is the senior president; R. G. Dyarborough, junior president, and Rev. T. H. Batton, pastor.
Washington.Sentenced to Serve Four Months
For failing to contribute to the support of his child, Russell Washington, a musician, of 129 West 133rd street, was sentenced to serve four months in the City Prison at Welfare Island by Magistrate Brough in the Family Court. Washington was arrested by Probation Officer Samuel Gibbon on complaint of his wife, Mrs. Washington, and given her very little for the support of their child since he had left her last year, and that he was over $100 in arrears with his payments at the time of his arrest. The Probation Officer said that he had been trying to locate Washington ever since March, and that while looking for another abscess in Brooklyn he came across Washington to enter the subway with two richly robed young women, and placed him under arrest
In passing sentence, the Magistrate said, "You ought to be ashamed of yourself — running around with other women while your wife and baby are in want. Possibly one of those ladies will dispose of her sable coat and put up a bond of $416 for you; otherwise you must spend four months with the pick and shovel."
The musical event of the past week in Brooklyn was the organ recital at the Concord Baptist Church of Christ, on Adelphi street. The Concordia Club presented Mr. Frank Miller and Mrs. Mary Henderson Smith, contralto soloist, who is fast becoming a favorite of the crowd. The proceeds were given to the fund for the Charles F. Murrow Memorial organ dedicated recently at Concord Mrs. Smith is a product of Concord Church and Sunday school. She was accompanied on the piano at the recital by Prof. Lynden Calvert, Curator of the Rev. J. B. Adams, the pastor, presided and made the introductory and closing remarks.

Jamaica Man Killed Wife on Palm Sunday
Sam Fulton, 40, of 16 Church street, Jamaica, walked into the Jamaica Magistrates' Court last Wednesday and after the business of the court had been concluded he went up to Magistrate Harry Miller. "Judge, I want to be arrested and killed for murdering my wife."
The magistrate thought he was crazy. Finally, the magistrate asked him a few questions. He said he had beat his wife to death with an axe on Palm Sunday at 16 Church street. The magistrate sent Patrolman Bessel to the address with Fulton. They went to the house and in a bedroom on the top floor they found the body of the woman horribly mutilated.
The patrolman notified the magistrate, who told the district attorney. Assistant District Attorney Prosser went to Jamaica to conduct a investigation. Fulton said he owed two months' rent, that his wife had been unfaithful to him and that she had been a crook.
When Fulton went into court he had a Bible and some love letters he said his wife had received. Police say the condition of the woman's body indicated she might have been slain on Palm Sunday as Fulton had confessed.

DAY FROM 9 A.M. UNTIL 11 P.M.
Not so, long ago, April 11th of this year, to be exact, humanity suffered in the person of Luther Burbank, the world famous horticulturist, an irrepairable loss. Mr. Burbank in his latter days, as you know, came out figuratively to square and candidly asserted that he was an infidel (in the everyday sense of the word). Which statement quite naturally shocked a certain group of people. A few weeks after expressing his candid opinion, Luther Burbank passed on. At his passing we ode certain group of people, as might be expected, said in unison: "I told you so." His amazing discoveries for the benefit of mankind would stand.
of course when William Jennings Japan died last year, at the height of his championing of a cause which was in direct distinction to the expressed opinion of Burbank, the same certain group of people maintained their consistency by remaining as inconsistent as ever, saying: "Oh! that was just in the natural course of events." Had it been Clarence Darrow instead, then what?

Then a few days ago, Sinclair Lewis, the famous novelist, went to Kansas City and by some ruse got himself admitted into a church and even into the pulpit. And before the pastor or somebody could hush introducing him, he prematurely commenced to berate, demean, ridicule and otherwise deny the divinity of Christ and existence of God. He dared either or both and the Holy Ghost thrown in for good measure to strike him down or to come out and indulge in a "free for all rough and tumble." Discretion compels us dumbbells to remark that at its best the whole affair was a very poor imitation of Titan, or probably more appropriately of an inexplicated mouse at a cat convention.
To distress, Burbank is gone, but humanity is thankful and rightfully so, that it still has the utilitarian services of Dr. George Washington Carver of Tuskegee.
I guess all of this is a little too sheep for this column, because, as you know, this column isn't supposed to be intersted in anything above the status of pork chops, moonshine, and Charleston contests. So borrowing a phrase from a element of society we will, for the time being, "stay in our place." This column, as you know also.

PRAISES RHYTHM OF
AFRICAN MUSIC
WASHINGTON, D. C. "The rhythms of African music are extraordinarily rich and animated, while the chief motif is usually simple and indefatigably repeated." writes Dr. Wilhelm Heilitz, noted German critic, in the March Frankfurter Zeitung, "The African talent for diversified rhythms on drums and other percussion instruments is little short of marvelous. The native can keep five or six rhythms going simultaneously on his drums and keep them all sharply differentiated. This talent has been developed into drum telegraphy in West Africa. The natives can make themselves understood at over 1,000 kilometer distances."
Young Post to Have Membership Drive
The annual membership drive of the Colonial Charles Young Post of the American Legion will be held the week of May 9-15.

Reduced rates for the whole trip are available to all 50 members of the Legion of 1926 and 1927. Several men are taking advantage of this opportunity.

In final preparation for the drive there will be a drive meeting of the Legion on Friday evening, May 7 at 8:30 at the Urban League, 202 West 136th street.

is the official organ of the "Order of Disorderly Dumb-Bells." One of the unique features of this organization is, it doesn't cost anything to join. Of course we may launch a couple of drives; have a few rallies; or sell some shares in our projected factory, which will manufacture balloon-tire shoes for Elk marching clubs, but for the time he was young, he didn't delight" (mind you I mean "nearsighted" bankers). So we shall pass through those tunnels when we get to them.
By the way, while looking in the dictionary for some big word to spring on the readers, I, for some psychological reason inadvertently came across the word "dear." I saw that "dear" when used as an adjective meant: something bearing a high price; more costly than usual; expensive, etc.; I wouldn't look any further). Now dear wife or dear sweetheart is most assumably using "dear" as an adjective. So why not make them Elk wife and Elk sweetheart? Then they wouldn't be quite so expensive—providing you use good judgment. If any Elk takes offense at these wry-cracks, "I'll just tell the little incorrigible fellow from Washington on him.
Washington? Washington? All that reminds me of politics. I think it was the great philosopher Bungleton Green or somebody who said: "Politics makes strange bed-fellows." And to verify the truthfulness of the statement, there is Pat Harrison and a gang of Washington Negroes eating out of the same political eating and sleeping in the same political bed at the expense, so far, of Attorney James A. Cobb and about twelve million other Negroes. Darned, if truth ain't stranger than fiction!
Protests Separate Bathing Beach Bill
Objectionable Features of Amendment Not Known Till Last Minute
A letter to President Coolidge, protesting against the passage of a bill in the House of Representatives, carrying a Senate amendment which provides expressly for the use of bathing beaches in the National capital with segregation of white and colored people, has been sent to the White House by Neval H. Thomas, President of the Washington branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.
"The objectionable feature of this bill," the letter states, "was put into it in the last stages of its passage through Congress and our intention was not drawn to it until after passage, hence our only recourse is to you.
"The matter is therefore respectfully called to your attention with the wish that you may not permit this bill to become a law with your approval."
The bill is numbered H. R. 6556 and colored citizens have been urged to write President Coolidge asking that he veto it.

'Wash' the Barber Dies Suddenly
.
Worked All Day Saturday at His Chair in Seventh Avenue Shop
"You're next," exclaimed Frank Washington, 57, at his barber chair in the shop at 2297 Seventh Ave. all day and far into the night Saturday. Happy and joyful as usual, no pain or grief. Sunday he was still in his merry mood. But Monday morning he was dead.
"Wash," as he was called by everyone who knew him, had been suffering from heart trouble for some time. Sunday night, while he was walking along the street, he made a complaint about his heart. Friends who were accompanying him insisted upon going to his room at 170 W. 135th street with him.
Taking turns at the bedside, legeres in the apartment nursed him all during the night. About 4 o'clock he apparently fell off to sleep—the sleep of the dead. His daughter, Mrs. Roseland Holland who lives in New Jersey, was summoned. Mr. Washington is also survived by one other daughter, Mrs. Imogene Sullivan.

Claim Basis of Carteret Trouble Was Pitting of Black and White Workers Against Each Other
A demand that protection be given to Negroes returning to their homes at Carteret, N. J., from which they were driven by a mob, was sent to public officials of New Jersey Sunday by a mass meeting at 200 West 135th street, under the auspices of the Harlem Educational Forum and the American Negro Labor Congress. Forest Bailey, a director of the American Civil Liberties Union, ensured the town and state officials of New Jersey for failure to protect citizens from the final attacks by the mob, which resulted in the burning of the Baptist church there.
"There was a great contrast in the action of public officials of New Jersey in dealing with the mob at Carteret and the textile workers who are on strike at Passaic," said Staley, the former case manager to protect all the they sent guards and sheriffs in force to Passaic to protect factories and employers and to oppress the strikers."
Most of the speakers agreed that the trouble at Carteret was not one of racial conflict but of an economic situation, which was brought about by the encouragement given negroes to work in the factories. Finally was limited exclusively to white laborers and mechanics. This view of the mob attack was incorporated in a resolution to be sent to the public officials. It read:
"We direct attention to the basic cause of these terrible outrages—the pitting of black and white workers against each other in suicidal competition for jobs by emplaced in a rededicated war—and declare that the only remedy for this situation is to be found in the organizing of black and white workers upon a basis of equality and the formation of intersocial labor councils."
On the motion of Dr. Hubert W. Harrison, a committee of five was appointed by the chairman. While the committee was visibly of establishing a protective organization, to be known as the National Negro Defense Committee.

With a Bible in one hand and a package of letters in the other, Sam Fulton, age 42, walked up to Magistrate Harry Miller at the close of proceedings in the Jamaican Court Thursday morning and announced: "Judge, I want to be arrested and killed for the murder of my wife." The Magistrate and court attendants were inclined to ignore him, but he became insistent, explaining that he had beaten her to death with an axe on Palm Sunday in their home at 16 Church street. Patrolman Bessel was sent to the house with Fulton and found the woman's body in a bedroom on the second floor.

Urban League House Opening
Urban League House Opening
一
New Headquarters Inspected by Hundreds of Visitors During Day
"Open House Day" was observed at the New York Urban League last Wednesday. In the afternoon hundreds of persons visited the League's headquarters, inspecting the new building and the activities of the Urban League and co-ordinating agencies, being served tea by the Urban League's Women's Auxiliary.
In the evening a large and enthusiastic group gathered in the Assembly Hall, where Miss Marguerite Wales described the work of the Urban League Center of Henry Street Settlement, which has grown from two nurses to a staff of 24, who make more than 4,000 visits in the Harlem District monthly. She declared the Urban League Center the largest and most active of all Henry Street Nursing District, Miss Mabel Nodwell is supervisor, assisted by Marion Pattiford.
Dr. H. O. Harding, chairman of the Harlem committee of the New York Tuberculosis Association, of which Mrs. Mabel D. Keaton is executive secretary, explained the health program of that organization describing ideal clinic structures, distribution of free literature and various activities for the improvement of health conditions in Harlem.
James H. Hubert, executive secretary of New York Urban League, spoke on "Harlem and Its Needs," describing the Urban League's approach. He emphasized especially the progress he made during the five years, when the high death rate, now practically cut in half, and the reduction of delinquency. "Our chief concern," said he. "is raising the standard of living. When $5 per cent of our mothers are forced to work to supplement the family income; when children are without parental care; when teachers are forced toter and clothing—the bare necessities of life—are out of proportion to the income, we must continue to expect an abnormal community life. These maladjustments will be remedied when the Negro worker is given a living wage, an equal chance to work at the job for which he is given "Not alms but opportunity."
The opening of the Urban League building supplies a long-felt need in Harlem. It houses the 43 workers of the 3 co-ordinating agencies; has an auditorium and clubrooms for various affiliated groups. Already these are much in demand.
Mr. Arthur C. Holden, chairman of the executive board, who conferred with President at the opening exercises, paying special tribute to the people of Harlem and the Women's Auxiliary in particular, of which Mrs. Edgar N Parks is chairman, for the splendid co-operation given in financing the purchase and re-modelling of the league's home.
Short addresses were made by Mr. Curtis J. Beard, vice-president of the Empire State Savings Bank and treasurer of New York Urban League; Dr. E. P. Roberts, Mrs. Louis Corbis; Mrs. Ersage, Mrs. Corbis; Mrs. L. Resident of the Grand Council of Brotherhood of Railway Employees; Mr. E. K. Jones, executive secretary of National Urban League.

Exhibition.
Hurrah, burrow, went the Boy Scouts at the Ninth Republic, Ayes hall, Hall 125th street, near Lexington avenue, last week! To tell the truth the boys went to see a motion picture show and an exhibition.
The title of the pictures were "The Man Who Found a Boy, and Scout's Letter." The boy, P. Whiteford, directed by Mr. Whiteford, an executive of the Manhattan Council. The boys who took part in the exhibition were Sanford Berlin, Seymour Pike, Louis Landreau, David Sacks, P. S. Rosenberg, Max Ernstein, Joseph Wiseman and Matthew Rosg.
Founder Coming Here
Sir Robert Baden-Powell, the founder of the Boy Scouts of the World, will be here within the next two weeks. On his arrival Scouts from all over Greater New York will meet him at the station. Coolidge Praises Scouts.
President Coolidge, addressing the National Council of Boy Scouts Saturday night in Washington, said that the principles of the organization require rules of right thinking and acting and that its code embraced almost every virtue needed in the personal and social life of mankind. There are 3,000,000 boys in the United States who have been Scouts, one out of every seven are eligible," the President said, and he felt it was impossible to estimate the physical and spiritual needs of the boys who have been added to the national life if, in the period since its formation in 1910, the other six also had been Scouts. The President declared that the organization must attainment for good and that the Scout's oath and the 12 articles in the laws formed a comprehensive formula for developing moral and spiritual character which the President characterized as "affirmative obligations" rather than "prohibitions," require Scouts to be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, courageous, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.
"If every boy in the United States between the ages of 12 and 17 could be placed under the wholesome influences of the Scout program and should live up to the rules," the President said, "we would hear fewer pessimistic words as to the future of our nation."

Williams of Disk University. Mr.
Kramer's poem was especially
praised by the judges. It is en-
titled "No Images," and is as fol-
ows:
She does not know
Her beauty;
She thinks her brown body
has no glory.
If she could dance
Naked
Under palm trees
And see her image in the river
She would know.
But there are no palm trees
on the street
And dish water gives back no
images.

Fish's Monument Bill Passes House
(Continued from Page 1.) the American Battle Monuments Commission, which it had created for the purpose, and that no distinction should be made between races—that monuments should be erected for American soldiers regardless of color. Representative Hill, Republican, of Maryland, a member of the Battle Monuments Commission, advised against Congress designating monuments individually, and read a letter from the secretary of the commission in which it was stated that the Negro regiments comprising the 93rd Division were to be honored by tablets placed on other monuments.
The bill was sponsored by Representative Hamilton Fish of New York, who was a captain in the 93rd Division. Although it does not specify the site of the monument, the commission said it is generally understood that it will be erected near Sechoult, which was captured by the 369th Infantry and a part of the 372nd Infantry, composed of troops from Ohio, Connecticut, Missouri, Massachusetts and the District of Columbia.
Representative Connally, Democrat, of Texas, offered an amendment to dedicate the monument to all colored troops in the A. E. F., but Speaker Longworth upheld a point of order made by Representative Begg of Ohio.
Representative Linthicum said he had many Negroes in his district, but none had asked him to support a monument for Negroes. They did not want segregation, he added.
Troops Again Guard Accused Prisoners
MADISONVILLE, Ky., May 2. While machine guns frowned down upon the courtroom the State continues the trial this week of the first of three men accused of attacking a white girl.
Kentucky has taken elaborate measures to prevent race rioting. Three platoons of National Guards flanked the defendants on their march from the jail to the courthouse and machine guns were stationed at the three entrances and inside the lobby.
The accused men are to be tried separately, one after the other, and the troops will remain on duty until the cases are ended. The record in Bunyan Fleming's case is complete. He was found guilty. After Fleming, Nathan Bard and Columbus Hollis will be tried. The latter is said to have confessed the attack, implicating his two companions.
MRS. MOZELL SMITH

PITTSBURGH, Pa., May 3—Mrs. Mozell Smith, aged 54, who was found dead in her home in Smallman street Friday afternoon, was the victim of heart disease, according to the report of the coroner's fury.

broke it up with the ballot, and assured the country that so far as the House is concerned, America desires to pay tribute to the valiant services of the 369th, 371st and 372d Regiments, which more than did their bit to keep the Germans out of New York, and, also, away from Florida, Alabama, Louisiana, Tennessee, Mississippi, Texas, and their sister commonwealths, whose representatives wipe out the color lines when an appropriation is on the floor, but resurrect it as soon as the balloting is over. The measure now goes to the Senate, where it will undoubtedly have smooth sailing.
Berger's Federal Aid Bill
HON. VICTOR L. BERGER, of the Fifth Congressional District of Wisconsin, the first socialist ever elected to the U. S. Congress and participant in a "thousand" combats, political and legal, has introduced in the House of Representatives a bill providing for Federal aid to the States in a drive to combat illiteracy. Under the terms of the Berger Bill it is proposed that the Federal Government will appropriate two million dollars each year for the next six years, the same to be apportioned among the various States in proportion to their percentage of illiteracy, and subject to the requirement that each State match the amount appropriated by the Federal Government.
In his argument in favor of the bill Congressman Berger makes some significant assertions, as follows: "It is surprising that the United States, which was one of the first nations to make elaborate plans to furnish an elementary school education to all those within in its borders, should now compare so unfavorably with other countries in the percentage of illiteracy. In England, the percentage of illiteracy is about 1.8, while in the United States, for the same class, it is in excess of 7 per cent. Illiteracy is greatest in the South. That explains in a large measure why the Ku Klux Klan got its start and was able to make such headway in the South."
Discounting the Klan phases of the socialist argument, it is patient, of course, that the Negroes of the neglectful South are made to bear the brunt of the contribution to illiteracy. With discriminatory expenditures for segregated schools in both the urban and the rural southland, they have not the equal chance to equip themselves with a thorough knowledge of reading and writing. It would indeed be a boon to them if increased Federal and other funds were available to them for the cause of education. It is sadly doubtful, however, with the trend of states' rights clutching the southern states in its tight grasp, that consent could be gained to permit the Federal Government to salvage its illiterates in the states. This is why it is so important, just now, for the race the country over to let the world know that its individual units cleave, first, unto their citizenship

in the United States, and, second,
to their citizenship in the states
in which they reside.
Mr. Berger, Socialist, though he
is, has given the country something
to think about in reminding it of
its obligation, as the whole, for its
subjects in the states: for, alas, as
he intimates, illiteracy is a double-
harreled reflection upon both state
and nation, and one or the other
must have the moral courage,
sooner or later, to wipe it out.

A section of the resolutions adopted strongly condemned the "Carteret outrages" and charges the police of Carteret with responsibility for much of the disorder, saying that the hand of the law, as far as the Carteret Police Department—was concerned—was directed mainly at arresting colored persons, and not in arresting persons, regardless of color, who were responsible for the disorders.
The Queens at. the Mardi Gras May 14 at the Armory are: Mrs. Odessa Warren-Morse, Miss Ruby Mason and Mrs. E. A. Warren-Davis.
Frequent Bilious Attacks
Frequent Bilious Attacks
"I suffered with severe bilious attacks that came on two or three times each month," says Mr. J. P. Nevins, of Lawrenceburg, Ky. "I would get nauseated. I would have dizziness and couldn't work. I would take pills until I was worn-out with them. I didn't seem to get relief.
BLACK-DRAUGHT
Liver Medicine
and I began its use. I never have found so much relief as it gave me. I would not be without it. It seemed to cleanse my whole system and made me feel like new. I would take a few doses—get rid of the bile and have my usual clear head, feel full of pep, and could do twice the bulk of attacks are "seasonal" with many people. Millions have taken Thedford's Black-Draught to ward off such attacks, and the good results they have reported should induce you to try it.

SALINA, Kan., May 3—Luke F. Parsons, 83 years old, last survivor of the famous John Brown band of slavery days, died here today.
When Parsons came into Kansas in 1856 the country was in the throes of the free state and slave state agitation. He joined the famous abolitionist, John Brown, and his sons in their fight to make Kansas the state, and with him in all of his battles with the border raiders who sought to extend slavery into the state.
Escapees Harper's Ferry.
Although selected by Brown as one of his 10 picked men for the raid into Virginia at Harper's Ferry, Parsons escaped the fate that befell that little party, as he was in Colorado at the time, whither the gold rush had taken him.
Parsons was day clerk at the famous Eldridge or Free State Hotel at Lawrence, Kan., when it was burned by Quantrell's band, the printing presses destroyed and the town sacked.
In the attack on Fort Titus, headquarters of the border raiders, Parsons was wounded. In that action the first two balls fired from an old cannon were moulded from type picked up following Quentin's shooting, ringing out the captain cried: "Those are the second edition of the 'Herald of Freedom' (one of the newspapers destroyed at Lawrence). How do you like it, eh?" In the battle of Ossawatome, Kan., August 31, 1856, Brown had Armory Mardi Gras Friday, May 14. Boxes $6, admission $1.

One Filibuster Busted
OVERCOMING a filibuster of Southern Democrats, Republican Congressmen, aided by several Democratic members from the Northern States, passed last week a bill introduced by Hamilton Fish, of New York, for the erection of a monument in France to honor three Negro regiments, including New York's "Fifteenth." Arguing against the measure, one Southerner exclaimed that it was "discrimination in favor of colored troops." Another could not understand why the three regiments had been singled out to the exclusion of other Negro troops who saw service in the World War.
MR. FISH, in defending the bill, said it was but a simple act of justice to the three regiments suffering heaviest casualties in the war and whose flags have already been decorated with the French Croix de Guerre.
RACE PREJUDICE played no part in the opposition, according to the Democrats who opposed the measure, but we do not believe them. The American Battle Monuments Commission, headed by General Pershing, opposed the measure on supposedly other grounds than race prejudice, and the Southern representatives in Congress found it advantageous to back this opposition rather than flaunt their racial prejudices as they have hitherto done to any measure looking toward full or partial recognition of the Negro as a full-fledged citizen and soldier of the country.
WHILE it is a far cry from the erection of a monument in France to our being accorded that kind of equality under the law and constitution America claims to hold out for her citizens, without regard to race, creed or color, and while there are other forms of simple justice we stand in greater need of than the erection of a monument, we were in favor of the bill and we are glad it has passed the House, if for no other reason than that in its passage Republicans demonstrated their ability to overcome a Democratic filibuster.
OTHER and more important legislation having a more direct bearing upon the Negro is now or will soon be put before Congress, and if a filibuster can be overcome in one instance it is reasonable to conclude that it may be overcome in other instances. In the future it will not be sufficient for Republicans to offer a filibuster as their sole excuse for their failure to pass legislation favorable to the fulfillment of America's idea of equality as outlined in her Constitution.
GREAT BRITAIN has threatened to bring suit against eight Southern States
who defaulted in the payment of their debts when the Confederacy collapsed. England was willing to lend money to the South to perpetuate slavery, and we would shed no tears if she brought a suit and lost; nor would we grieve if the South at this late day should be called upon to pay in full for her folly.

Expressed by Our Contemporaries
Christian Cowardice
(From the Norfolk Journal and Guide.)
(From the Norfolk Journal and Guide.)
It is admitted, openly and privately, by all sincere Christians of the times that the most dominating and persistent challenge confronting modern Christianity is to ameliorate interracial differences and strife with an application of Balm of Gilead. It is not too much to believe that upon this lone and simple test Christianity will spread and enrich the ages or fail and be denied. Any gathering of professed Christians that attempts to ignore or sidetrack this fact, simply fails to confront and grapple with Christianity's momentous problem. Yet, in spite of these incontrovertible verities, the great gathering of the Interdenominational Young People's Conference in Birmingham, Ala., last week pursued a most remarkable policy of Christian cowardice. The disservice rendered Christianity was so manifest that the cause would have been better served had the conference never met.
Dr. Will W. Alexander, Director of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, himself an apostle of interracial good-will and one who is an ardent exponent of the idea of applying Mr. Sinaf's code to our interracial tills, must have had in mind the thought that if Christianity means anything, it must mean: "All Men Up and No Men Down," when he essayed to tell the Hirmingham gathering of the unjust and un-Christian attitudes of which the American Negro is the victim, and to utter a plea for greater Christian tolerance for the brother in black.
But did this gathering of supposed young Christian people react with burning enthusiasm to the challenge of this quest of good-will? Were they receptive of this bit of undefiled and frank Christianity handed them by Dr. Alexander? Mayhaps some were, but not so with those who were heard, according to the reports. They showed that they were out of sympathy with his all-encompassing idea of Christianity and proceeded to evidence a most egregious manifestation of Christian cowardice as well as a flagrant violation of the amenities deserved by a guest of the occasion. They sought to heckle the speaker. They wanted to know: "Do you believe in the repeal of the Jim Crow laws?" "Do you think that educated Negroes are more hostile to whites than uneducated Negroes?"
Do you believe Dr. Alexander answered the first two questions in the affirmative. He declined to answer the third. It is just as well that he did, as it was plain that his inquisitors were not in a mood to accept such a broad Christianity as his. He is a Southerner of unquestioned courage and sincerity. Since 1919 he has challenged Christianity in America to apply its test to interracial goodwill. He knew that several weeks ago, when the leaders of the Birmingham conference were confronted with a challenge of standing unequivocally upon the Christianity professed by them or capitulating to Christian coward then seeking to manifest itself in race prejudice, they followed the latter course by announcing that there would be racial discrimination in the seating arrangements in the auditorium in which the meeting was to be held. Dr. Alexander knew that while he spoke hundreds of young colored Christians were absent from the conference because their denominations refrained from participating in it when they could not lend endorsement to the idea that race prejudice and Christianity ever are consonant. His course was hold. That of the conference was cowardly. Christianity, to be true to its preceptor, must recognize no traditions or customs violative of the spirit of Him "who was no respecter of persons."
Jersey Disgraced Again
(From the Daily Mirror.)
There's another war in New Jersey.
This isn't a big war with thousands involved, like the Passaic (xtail strike) (which Governor Moore has NOT settled yet), but a little, one-sided, cowardly war.
Some tough white men, for reasons as various as they are obscure, set upon a handful of colored people in Carteret, drove them from their homes and burned their church.
The ruins of that church, shown in the picture (a photograph of the church accompanied this editorial), stood for a day in mute reproach to a community that gave way to the most unreasoning and cruel of human passions, race hatred. Perhaps the sight of those blackened timbers annoyed the man who set fire to the building that was the heart of the colored settlement; even the skeleton was pulled down on Tuesday.
The smoke of that burned church still smudges Carteret, and the State. It was the right of those colored workers to live and worship where they pleased, entitled to protection so long as they wore low-helbling.
A brawl in which a colored man is said to have stabbed a white man was a matter for the law to deal with. And it was the business of that same law, and the arm of its enforcement, to prevent mob violence, to guard from attack the homes and the church of the colored population.
The Carteret police were blind and deaf, apparently, when mob tury broke loose. At least they took no effective steps to halt an onslaught that sent men and women and children fleeing in terror.
The Carteret police ARE STILL BLIND AND DEAF. They know—everybody in the town knows—who are the leaders in this race against the colored folk. They know THE WAR IS STILL ON.
A few at a time, the colored people are returning to brave a smouldering hatred. Decisive action—few arrests—would prompt sittle threatened violence.
The Carteret police do nothing—THE STATE DOES NOTHING—while the members of the mob import tear bombs from New York and cut curtain poles into clubs for renewed and bloodier battle.
MURDEROUS THUGGERY breeds in Carteret. Aren't assault and arson enough, or will the authorities wait for KILLING*
Prize Winning Editorials Tied for F. C. W. C. Award for Constructive Journalism
(From The Amsterdam News, May 6, 1925.)
All of us know that three young men were put to death in Sing Sing prison's electric chair last Thursday. Most of us know that two of these young men were of Jewish parentage and the third Italian. According to our State laws, the trio deserved the terrible penalty inflicted upon them. They were tried and found guilty of a most heinous crime. Another young man, also of Italian parentage, secured a new trial, which resulted in a disagreement of the jury, was tried a third time, convicted and is now awaiting the same fate in connection with the same crime.
Two of these young men were brothers, who left behind them advice, which, if it had been heeded in time, would have saved them from such a dishonorable death and spared their mother and father the disgrace and humiliation which must be theirs.
The electric chair at Sing Sing was not made especially for the Diamond brothers or for John Farina. There are a thousand other deaths they might have died, but by their conduct and by their deeds they showed a preference for it.. Their first step toward Sing Sing and death was taken, maybe, when as mere striplings they loitered on the street corner near their home with bad boys; disobeying, no doubt, their mothers and fathers; or when as younger men than they were when they were nut to death, they let their desires for worldly pleasures run far ahead of their earning capacity, resulting in an attempt to get something for nothing.
At the time they were unaware of the fact that they were on the road to Sing Sing; nor are thousands of young Negro men aware of the fact that they are on the same road. But they are. They may not get as far as the Diamond brothers and Farina, but unless they turn about, they will awaken some day to find that they are nearer Sing Sing and death than they thought.
Once a young Negro man sets foot on the road to Sing Sing, there are few turns along the way. Straight as was the road for the Diamonds and Farina, two Jewish and one Italian, the road of a Negro is straighter and narrower. Guilty or innocent the young Negro, in addition to the law, finds his color against him. His relatives may be unable to provide funds with which to place at his disposal the best attorneys. New trials for him are few, disagreements fewer and acquittals almost beyond hope.
It behooves the young Negro man, if not for his own sake, at least for the sake of his mother and father, sister or wife, to keep his feet out of the road to Sing Sing. He, more than the Italian or the Jew, should be careful of the company he keeps. The Diamonds and Farina went to the electric chair not as Jews or Italians, but as criminals. There is noodium attaching to their particular race because of their deeds. The Negro who goes to Sing Sing goes not only as a convicted criminal but as a Negro criminal, and unfair public opinion seeks to visit his disgrace upon the entire race.
Young Negro man! Beware of the road to Sing Sing and death!
Negro Being Recognized as Creative Artist, Says N. A. A. C. P. Report
American Negroes are being recognized as creative artists and contributors to the national culture, according to the annual report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, just published.

A Dying Man's Lie Refuted (From the New York Age, Jan. 30, 1926.)
When Charles Clayton, a night watchman at Glen Cove estate on Long Island, staggered to the lodgekeeper's home one night last October, with a bullet in his abdomen, his last utterance before he died was "A Negro shot me." Last week the Nassau county police arrested Harold Davidson, white, twenty-two years old, also of Glen Cove, who confessed to the detectives that he had killed Clayton, a close friend of his father, during an attempted hold-up. The detectives had their attention turned to Davidson in connection with the crime when a gate crossing watchman told of seeing him with Clayton previous to the shooting.
The county police, according to newspaper accounts, believe that Clayton, knowing that he was dying, said that he had been shot by a Negro in order to "cover up" the son of his friend. Evidently he had no thought of the jeopardy in which his dying lie would involve those black men whom the police hastily arrested on suspicion, but who were released for lack of any incriminating evidence. The fact that the orderly processes of the law obtain in Nessau County prevented the institution of lynch law, in default of any real evidence in the case of these few blacks apprehended in the vicinity of the shooting.
While the police are content to accept the lie as the natural effort to cover up a crime, the utterance of so false a statement on the verge of the grave wholly negatives the generally accepted idea that an ante-mortem statement by an individual with the knowledge that death is near is entitled to more than ordinary credit on that account. Evidently Clayton could lie as coolly and thoroughly in the face of death as at any other time. Whether he was an exception to the general run of humanity in this regard or not is a question. The newspaper accounts of the affair described him as a six-foot exmarine, and former guard of J. P. Morgan's place. He was forty-two years of age and had no doubt graduated from a hard school of experience which left little room for sympathy or imagination. The dying man probably neither thought nor cared that his effort to shield his friend's son might cause some friendless black man to pay the penalty for a crime of which he was guiltless.
This incident should give students of criminal jurisprudence cause to readjust their values as to the weight to be given ante-mortem statements in submitting them to a jury as evidence. It may even be affirmed that a man who is indifferent to truth as an abstract proposition may lie as calmly in the face of death as in the prospect of living to rue the day when he told the truth.

CULLEN TO EDIT MEXICAN MAGAZINE
WASHINGTON, D. C.—In the March issue of "Palms," a magazine of poems, published in Guadalajara, Mexico, the Editor, Miss Idolla Purnell, made the interesting announcement that Countee Cullen will be the editor of the next volume, which will be published early next fall.
"It will be an unusually good issue," states Miss Purnell, "with the added interest of being entirely written by Negro poets, from the leading article on "The Negro Renaissance" by Walter White, Assistant Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Negroes, to the last poem and the notes on the contributors."
A. B. B.
By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M. D.
THE responsibility of a father to his son is great, but his obligations to this same son are greater. Nature gave him this son, whose physical, mental and spiritual care is in his keeping, and the father who shirks this duty will sooner or later pay a penalty in mental anguish, in which he will be desolate indeed.
This obligation of a father to his son cannot be taken over by the mother. It is a father's job; it cannot be done by a mother. This obligation is to remove ignorance of things sexual and in its place give knowledge to his son of the pitfalls and traps that lie in his path, as he develops from boyhood into the inexperience of youth and finally into early manhood.
To do this successfully the father should have a plan and scope; a guide for this delicate talk; the best book that I know of, and one that is both interesting and practical is "Ten Sex Talks to Boys." This book is published by the J. B. Lippincott Company of Philadelphia, Pa.
If every father who has a son will get this little book, he will then be in position to impart knowledge of things sexual to the opening consciousness of his growing boy. Do not have a false idea of childhood and not putting dangerous notions into his head; you son's mentality is expanding; his physical body is growing; physiologically his sex organs will begin to function, and if you do not give him the necessary knowledge in the proper way of the care will not be held in check, and will go along the road of least resistance and ignorance, leading to a life of immorality, pain and venereal disease.
What kind of a son would you like to have?
There is the son who respects his mother and sisters, and because of this respect all members of their sex; such a son keeps himself clean morally. He does not seek the company of prostitutes, for he knows that disease shows up. If he accidentally finds himself in such company, he gets out of it as quickly as he can, because he knows danger surrounds them.
The picture of misery, pain and disease is so forcefully impressed on his mind by the advice given to him by his father that all the endearing charms of prostitutes have no effect upon his manly power, and promiscuous and illicit in his judgement; no more in his youthful life. In this way he keeps his health and prevents chronic invalidism or even laugnacy.
There is another kind of a son—I see him quite often. This son has no respect for his mother or sisters. He therefore has no respect for the members of their sex. This son is immoral. He cannot be trusted in the company of a decent girl. His ideas of life are always directed by the impulses of sexual immorality. This is the type of young man whose action brings down upon his head the curses of some fatter for the dishonor the function of his disdain. He seeks constantly the company of prostitutes and finally he is caught in the clutches of venereal diseases, premature debility, chronic invalidism and a cloudy and disalus future life.
These are types of sons. It is up to the father to guide his boy, to show him the right way. Do not let him be guided by ignorance, for she is an expensive teacher. Mastery of writing in the accepted obligations of the wise father.

To My Mother
TOO late for thee to hear, my angel mother,
I breathe this token of my gratitude
For thy great love, second alone to His
Who is the Father of the Universe:
All that I am, all that I hope to be.—
Young, hopeful, climbing ever t'ward the stars,—
Though I attain life's dearest heights of fame,
Receive the thund'rous plaudits of the world,
Or triumphant o'er life's evils here below,
I reach at last Truth's land,—the better land,—
I owe it all to thee, to thy great love!
Take then this token of my gratitude.
As calmly sway these pines above thy couch
Of earth, where thousands wait the great reward
Of faithful souls swept from life's battlefield:
By God's help, I shall strive to live so true
That when, at last, I come to wait with thee
In Death's great slumber room, glad tongues r
"Worthily he lived; more worthily he died,
Of his dear mother's faithful love and care."

Chicago Negro Banks in Good Condition
WASHINGTON, D. C.—
Statement of condition, as of
April 12th, of the Douglas N
ational Bank and the Binga
State Bank, both located in
Chicago's black belt, and each
capitalized at $200,000, showed
combined resources of $3,416,
102.56, being in the case of the
Douglas National $1,735,136.02,
and for the Binga State $1,680,965.34.
Combined loans and discounts were $1,215,105.13, being $420,416.15 for the Douglas national, and $795,432.38 for Binga State Bank. Combined deposits were $2,620,367.31, being $1,202,741.42 for the Douglas National and $1,417,625.59 for the Binga State. Investments in U. S. bonds, other bonds, and securities totaled $1,024,028.38, being for the Douglas National $714,965.58 and for the Binga State $309,601.80. Their cash position was $710,727.14 and the total real estate investments were set down at $385,260.
The foregoing figures appear to indicate that these two banks enjoy the confidence and general support of the Negroes in Chicago; that they do almost wholly a commercial banking business; and that the commercial operations of the Chicago Negro business men, assuming that the item of loans and discounts amounting to $1,215,105.13 represents credits granted to them by these institutions, are of a very considerable magnitude.
Raleigh Votes Big School Bond Issue
RALEIGH, N. C., May 3. Voting almost unanimously a school bond issue of $1,300,000, the city of Raleigh this week provided for extensions of its school system which are expected to make it adequate for the next ten years. Out of a registration of 4,726, the friends of the measure polled 3,716 votes and the opposition only 55.
One feature of the election was the solid Negro vote in favor of the bonds, in consideration of the school board's announced purpose of expending $400,000 of the proceeds on the colored schools, including the immediate completion of a handsome high school.
It is a matter of favorable local comment that there was no opposition to this provision for the Negroes and none to their participation in the election.
