HARLEM BONDSMAN NEAR DEATH VOL. XVII. NO. 24. Published Every Wednesday by The Amsterdam News Publishing Co., 2293 7th Ave. NEW YORK, WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 1926 Entered as second-class matter Dec. 31, 1909, at the Post Office at New York under the Act of March 3, 1819. CHURCH IN UPROAR A STRANGER? If you're a stranger in New York and want a room --- a nice comfy room, right away. Now, how can you get the right room right away? Why, by reading the FURNISHED ROOM COLUMNS ---- of ---- THE AMSTERDAM NEWS মা মা The Quest for Real Civilization DAVID WARK GRIFFITH, moving picture creator of the "Birth of a Nation," following that infamous picturization of racial hatred, next turned to the public with "Intolerance," a film showing that Selfishness, from B.C. to date, has been the motivating ill of all the generations of man. Today represents the acme of triumphs of the God of Self. The Chicago gang war, the Carteret riots of New Jersey, the British strike, mob rule, and a thousand other exhibits demonstrate the flight of Love and the advance of Self. Virginia, the State in which John Powell, American piano virtuoso and "race purifier," is trying to wash away the "sins" of color, worries about the visit to the South of Governor Al Smith, of New York, fearing that he might aspire to the Presidency of the United States, and noting that "there is a religious bar (Catholicism) against the Governor," which would make his candidacy the "sheerest political futility." A group of satisfied Americans spends sleepless nights fearing that the dark tenth part of the country's population might advance too far to be safely and judiciously "handled." A bloc of New Jersey labor trembles test black labor might get too firm a hold in New Jersey industry. The Communists' hands itch to handle the world's wealth; and Capital and Labor are at each others' throats daily and nightly. The Church has become so absorbed in the world's commercialism that it is fast becoming a tool of that institution, which is built upon wealth and influence. Twelve million American Negroes are being "shunted" here and there, an almost negligible force, except when handy to help the gigantic "interests" attain their goal. And all this is the melting pot of civilization's content—while the quest for the real civilization, which every man recognizes, when he examines his own conscience, has become a mere dream. Has the Self of Civilization become ballast? Who is responsible, the Church, by indifference; the (Continued on Page 2.)

MAN LYNCHED IN ALA ST. PETERSBURG, Ala., May 10 The body of Parker Watson, who was taken from two deputies last night while being carried to the Clearwater Jail, was found on a lonely road north of here today.

TO "BREAK THE BONDS" Patronize Only Stores Employing Negroes DEFENDS WOMAN BELIEVED "FRAMED-UP" BY POLICE Employer Tells Detailed Account of Way Stool-Pigeon Secured "Evidence" to Bring About Arrest of Mrs. Minnie Lynch That police officers, with the assistance of "stool-pigeons," are willing to go to any length to make arrests on trumped-up charges, is disclosed in a letter to Walter F. White, of the N.A.A.C.P., from Mrs. James H. Kirkpatrick, 328 East Fifty-first street, for whom the alleged victim of the frame-up was formerly employed as a domestic. The case of the woman, Mrs. Minnie Lynch, of 486 St. Nicholas avenue, was scheduled to come up in Jefferson Market Court yesterday. She is charged with prostitution. Mrs. Kirkpatrick's dramatic recital of the events leading up to the arrest follows: "Mrs. Lynch is married and has two children, a son 15 and a daughter 10. Her husband is living and works for a piano manufacturer here in New York. They occupy two rooms and rent five to roomers. "Some two months ago a man calling himself Thomas appeared at the house and asked for a room. He claimed to be chauffeur for some people from Atlantic City, who were in New York for a short time. At the time he called, Minnie Lynch's two sisters, Mamie Brown and Margaret Johnson, of 302 West 128th street were called on her phone and the man said the room was too small and dark and left.

Lola Coombs had been singing along when they had come to ask Mamie to go to the train with them. The man, still calling himself Thomas, recalled himself to Mamie and Mamie. He said he wanted a room and on seeing the one Mamie had to rent paid her a dollar deposit and agreed shortly after balance. He left and Mamie and Lola went off to the train leaving Mamie to receive some coal ordered by the janitress of the apartment house. About, 3 o'clock Thomas returned.

Carey, has started a suit in the Supreme Court for an absolute divorce from his wife, Isla Blanche Montrose Agard, naming Oswald Pilgrim as co-respondent. Mr. Agard has also started a $500 alienation suit against Mr. Pilgrim. The couple were married about four years ago in New York City. They have no children. Mr. Pilgrim is an employee of the Jamaica, L. I., branch of the Title Gurantee & Trust Co. Mr. Agard claims that he is a married man and has a wife and children, living in Jamaica, L. I. Some time ago he engaged the services of the Boulnin's National Detective Agency, 110 East 125th street, to make an investigation resulting, it is claimed, in his wife and Pilgrim being found in a room at 116 West 117th street, under the name of Mr. and Mrs. Montrose. His attorney has in his possession several affidavits to prove his statement. Mr. Agard claims that his wife and Pilgrim lived as man and wife at the 117th street address from October, 1925, to April, 1926. Dr. E.

Mrs. Sadie Osgood, housekeeper for Harleston, was attacked by her employer around 10:30 in the morning. She ran out of the house and summoned the police officer. On entering the building, the police man said. Harleston levelled a revolver directly at the officer. Williams quickly pulled out his service pistol and opened fire. He shot his prisoner in the left arm and abdomen. Mrs. Osgood took a taxicab shortly after the shooting and has not been seen since, according to other lodgers in the building.

DETECTIVES DIVERCES, INVESTIGATIONS, ELEC BOULIN DETECTIVE AGENCY Harlem 114th St. 125th M. 1937 Prison Keeper System's Victim Prison Keeper System's Victim Tells Amsterdam News Representative He Is Innocent of Drug Selling Locked up in the Tombs Court, where he was formerly a keeper, Claude Nichols, who lived at 201 West 121st street, is wondering what will be his fate when he is placed on trial in Federal Court, probably today, on a charge of violating the United State narcotic laws. He has been held in jail because of his inability to furnish security for $10,000 bail. Nichols says he is innocent and lays the distressing situation he finds himself in to a combination of circumstances. These he told to a representative of The Amsterdam News, who interviewed him in the prison, a day last week. He says that it is customary to keep drugs on hand in the prison to be dispensed by a physician to addicts confined there, but that after the physician left, about 4 o'clock each day, the drugs were given over to one of the keepers to be dispensed, and for the past two years the job had been wished on him, despite his protest that his job as keeper had nothing to do with them. At times, he says, when a prisoner who was on his list as a drug fiend was discharged or admitted to bail, the surplus would be left temporarily in his care. The two Federal agents who were locked up in the prison and who brought about his arrest were listed as drug fiends and the physician gave him drugs for them, he says. At the time he gave the drugs to them, he says, the agents proffered him a tip, which later was cited as evidence that he sold drugs in the prison. Nichola, who has been a keeper for the past four years, was appointed by order of Mayor Hylan, after he had successfully passed the civil service examination and other requirements. He says he knows absolutely nothing of the drug ring alleged to be operating in the prison. The case will be tried before Judge Golddard, with Assistant U. S. District Attorney Guttman representing the Government. He lived with his wife, Louise, and his mother at the above mentioned address and bore a good reputation by officials of the prison. FISTS FLY FOLLOWING SUNDAY MORNING SERVICES Members of Baptist Temple Church in Free-for-All Fight Over Deacons' Right to Call Business Meeting Disgruntled deacons, who in vain have attempted to have their pastor enjoined from filling the pulpit, resulted in a free-for-all light Sunday morning in front of the Baptist Temple Church, located in 132nd street, near Seventh avenue. A decree in favor of the Rev. Charles D. Douglas, pastor of the church, was handed down by Judge Mahoney in the Supreme Court Friday, upholding his right to remain as pastor of the church. Following the sermon Sunday morning, the chairman of the deacons' board got up and announced that a business meeting would be held this week. It was later reported by a church member. The pastor then pointed out the fact that the meeting could not be held without his consent. At this juncture supporters of the church official and of the pastor hurled word-bombs at each other. When these bombs burst one blow was passed. Then the fun began. The entire body was then thrown in an uproar in battle-royal fashion. According to waiters in the Tabb's Restaurant, who occupied grandstand seats, some of the women were seen with bloody noses and torn clothing. Men were fighting women and men alike, they said. A manager of the garage next to the church, the bleacher section, said that he judged that over 100 members were engaged in the fight. The trouble, it was stated by one church official, was caused by a small group of men who have attempted to control and dominate the church and minister. They brought an injunction against the Rev. Douglas last week to restrain him from remaining at the church. Another member of the church, who was brutally frank in telling what she knew about the situation, said that the small "fundamentalist" group of deacons have driven every progressive preacher away from the church. She declared that they opposed every progressive measure. (Preston News Service.) PINE BLUFF, May 13.—W. A.

Minnie agreed that he and her husband would move out of their room and the rent was agreed on as $7 a week. Thomas paid the balance of $6 and Minnie gave him a key to the apartment. He asked for a towel to wash up and gave him one and he went into the bathroom. A few minutes later the door bell rang and Minnie opened it. "Two detectives rushed in and pushed her into the front room saying she was under arrest. They also said. 'You've got $7 of this man's money, and pulled down her stocking and took out the $7 Thomas had given her and also a $5 bill of her own. Meanwhile Thomas rushed the bathroom sayin "Minnie was then arrested and taken down to Jefferson Market Court. She was told she could make a telephone call, but she was not given time to do so and finally allowed to hear him, Frank Lynch. Through a bondsman, hall of $500 was secured. Frank paying a fee of $500 cash. The next morning the bail was raised to $1,000 and an adjournment until Thursday morning. May 6, was obtained, when the further adjournment until next morning at 10 a.m. m. was arranged. "I have known Minnie Lynch for almost seven years," the writer says, and adds that "during which time she has served me as cook, nurse, laundress and for house cleaning by the day. She first worked for me regularly as my cook, but had to stop when illness took over and when illness, she was in the Harlem Hospital where she visited her. "After she got better she was forced to go south for several months until her health improved. On her return she worked as my laundress, as she had to devote most of her time to taking care of her apartment and children, who are extremely well brought up children following people, all of whom I know personally and all of whom have spoken well of her to me: Mrs. Franklin L.

Colorful News Movies (Continued from Page 1) people, by avarice; or merely the innate greed of organized groups? Is William Macdonald correct when he says that western civilization is doomed? Of course, it is patent that the trend cannot last; for like a giant flywheel it will soon create sufficient momentum, if not regulated, to cause its own destruction. Hence, even with the ills that beset us, our group knows that a greater menace besets the country and the world. Perhaps, in stretching forth her hands in that day to locate, Ethiopia can save the world from itself. Just as Cardinal Hayes has openly given aid and comfort to the Jews, perchance we can some time set an example to crumbling civilization. At least we can have confidence in ourselves and in the qualities we have inherited from our forefathers (including those in John Powell's State of Virginia) and press on forever to increase our success and the success and civilization of the world, for, as Simon Strauss says; "Success measured in dollars and success, only is not success." Criticism's Reward in Georgia DOWN in dear old Georgia, the Columbus Enquirer Sun, a white daily paper edited by Julian Harris, son of Joel Chandler Harris of the Uncle Remus stories, has been carrying on a vehement campaign of defense of the Negro. Incidentally, the good editor and his daily de- I you are well you are happy. you are sick you are miserable. Every human being faces the danger of disease.

For such unceasing devotion to Truth, Justice and Equity the Enquirer Sun has been awarded the Pulitzer prize "for the most disinterested and meritorious public service rendered by an American newspaper during the year." That the journalistic progenies of the late Joseph Pulitzer, of the New York World, should deem, as meritorious service, a defense of the persecuted Negro race of America is not strange. Pulitzer, himself a Jew, has borne the scorn and antipathies of the "superiors," and left among his "legacies" the admonition to defend the underdog. That, however, a white Georgia newspaper should have the temerity to blaze away at the racial customs and traditions of the Klan is cause for considerable wonderment in this day and time, when Georgia and its sister states are making their final effort to clamp the lid on the aspirations of the Negro. Not all of Georgia, nor of the Southland, is bent upon an era of persecution of the black man, and now and then some good samaritan like Julian Harris has the moral courage to champion the Negroes' cause at the hazard of profit and reputation. It is these few patrons that make it believable that some day the sunny South will come to its senses and cure its palsied hands of their racial epidemic. In the meantime, it is cheering that in some notable way the country may know, through awards and otherwise, that watchmen are observing interracial trends in the South, praying for signs of evolution and willing to give prizes to all who help to bring about Christian changes of sentiment, and action. Six Under Indictment for Mine Murders BIRMINGHAM, May 10.—Indicting W. A. Bates, white, former Deputy Warden at Flat Top mines, and five others for murder in the first degree, the Jefferson County Grand Jury completed its first drive to clean up the conditions existing under the Alabama convict leasing system about which it had heard amazing testimony for more than a week.

He was located in Brownsville, Tenn., and held without bond, pending arrival of extradition papers.

Owners Win Suit Co-operative Apt. Owners Win Suit Hard-Fought Court Battle Over 141st Street Apts. Decided—Tenants Must Vacate Losing in their fight, angry tenants who were ordered to vacate their apartments at once hurled violent epithets at their landlords and one landed in jail Monday when Justice Darvies, in the 125th Street Municipal Court, rendered a decision in favor of 20 prominent citizens who sued to get possession of their apartments. Last September a co-operative group of people bought the apartment buildings at 103-109 West 141st street. When some of the tenants occupying apartments were ordered to move, war was declared by the tenants on the building's owners. Taking the tenants to court, the co-operative body was denied its appeal to have them evicted. The co-operation was then dissolved and individual owners of apartments took action. The hearing Monday had been postponed several times. As each of the landlords took the stand, the counsel representing them pointed out the superior calibre of his clients. At the end of the hearing a man by the name of Hewitt raged, swore and made threats in the court and the presiding justice ordered him under arrest on a charge of disorderly conduct. Among the apartment owners Brides & Groomse Note These Furniture Values! who took the witness stand were: Dr. Charles Roberts, Mrs. Nannie Washington Brandon, Dr. Lyle Carter, Dr. Arthur Dunnelly, Counselor Robinson and Mrs. W.

DETROIT, Mich., May 10.—A brilliant defense has been opened by Clarence Darrow, chief attorney retained by the National Association in the defense of Dr. and Mrs. Sweet and their nine co-defendants in Detroit, from a charge of murder arising from the death of a man shot during a riotous demonstration outside the Sweet home. The stories told by police and members of the Waterworks Improvement Association, to the effect that no mob menaced the Sweet home and that the shooting was unprovoked, have been riddled by witnesses for the defense, a number of whom have testified that from 400 to 500 people were about the house at the time. Mrs. Mary Spaulding, a social worker, testified that the street was like a parado and that there were 500 people there. James Smith testified he saw several hundred people around the Sweet home. Philip Adler, a newspaper reporter, said he saw 400 to 500 people there, and that he heard stones hit the Sweet house before the shooting. Ray Lorenzo, proprietor of an auto accessory shop, was also among the numerous witnesses who testified to seeing a crowd of 500 people outside the Sweet house. Mr. Darrow announced that it would not require more than two or three days for the defense to complete its testimony and rest its case.

Evenings LOW-RENT HOUSES NOW IN SIGHT ROCKEFELLER TO BUILD APARTMENTS IN HARLEM FOR NEGROES Purchases Sixty Lots Between 149th and 150th Streets, Near Harlem River and Seventh Avenue Purchase of sixty city lots in Harlem, one of the largest unoccupied plots in Manhattan, by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., for $500,000, is declared to forecast an improved housing development for those who need it most — the Negro. It is Mr. Rockefeller's third venture in housing betterment at low rental in the city, and model apartments, with plenty of light, air and sanitary features, are reported planned by his architect, Andrew J. Thomas. The site is one block from the Harlem River, between West 149th and 150th streets, Macomb's Dam place, Seventh and Eighth avenues, the car yards of the Interborough occupying the river front. Until six weeks ago the property was held by the Astor estate and was known to the locality as Ontario Field, an old athletic ground, vacant except for the westerly side, on which are a motion picture theatre, garages and some frame buildings. The whole area is 150,000 square feet, comprising a city block. Some time ago a delegation of Negro leaders of northern Harlem sought to interest Mr. Rockefeller in housing improvement, which is neatly needed there, and this is taken to be Mr. Rockefeller's reply, although no announcement of plans accompanied that of the purchase. Mr. Thomas is understood to have prepared preliminary drawings, but is now in Cleveland.

Beats Fruit Dealer Who Insulted Wife Beats Fruit Dealer Who Insulted Wife Charge of Disorderly Conduct Against Victor Houtman Dismissed Victor Houtman, 25. 117 St. Ann's avenue, near 133d street, was dismissed when arraigned before Magistrate Flood in Night Court Friday on a charge of disorderly conduct, preferred by Malachi Zucker, white, 570 East 137th street. Zucker, the proprietor of a fruit stand at the 137th street address, appeared in court wearing several bandages and with his left eye closed and his nose bleeding. He charged Houtman had beaten him up. The fruiterer testified Houtman's wife had gone to his stand Friday afternoon and taken several cherries therefrom without paying for them. He said he remonstrated with her and she went home, returning two hours later with her husband. The husband, he said, hit him several times. Mrs. Rose Houtman testified Zucker had told her to sample the cherries and on finding them sour she did not buy any. She declared he then called her a vile name. Several white women who are alleged to have witnessed the incident told Mrs. Houtman not to stand for that treatment. She then went home and told her husband, who went to the street to learn what the trouble was all about. Houtman said several peddlers jumped on him and hit him when he began to talk to Zucker. Policeman Slekmann, of the Alexander avenue station, who arrested Houtman on Zucker's complaint, said when he arrived at the stand he saw several men stop beating Houtman and run away.

NO MONEY DOWN Sent to Bellevue for Observation Sent to Bellevue for Observation Officer Says Woman Attacked Tenants, Causing Serious Injury to One "Please don't send me away; I am all right," cried Mrs. Lotte Robinson, 35 West 132nd street, NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 12, 1926 when she was informed by Magistrate Joseph Corrigan in the Heights Court Monday that she was being sent to Bellevue Hospital for observation. Last week she attacked several tenants living in the same apartment with here, causing serious injury to one woman, it was stated by Officer James Boyle, who made the arrest. Miss Beatrice Robinson, daughter of the alleged insane woman, said that she was afraid to trust her mother. Isaac Robinson, a receiving and checking clerk, the husband, said that he believed that it was dan- gerous for his wife to be allowed to go free. He said that although he had been separated from her for over ten years, he knew that she was subjected to fits at times. Robinson said that he gave his wife $7 a week for her support but could not be responsible for her actions. When asked by the court if he would take her back and live with her, Robinson said that it would be impossible. The alleged demented woman will be held in the observation ward at Bellevue for ten days and then returned to the court for disposition. Travel Conditions of Negro Studied GREENSBORO, N. C., May 10. After considering the need of better traveling conditions for Negroes, the North Carolina Interracial Committee in annual session here appointed a committee to seek the improvements desired. Among the conditions complained of were the lack of separate retiring rooms in Negro cars, the use of wooden coaches, the occupancy of Negroes' coaches by white pass- engers and railroad employees, and lack of prompt service at ticket windows sometimes resulting in the missing of trains. It was pointed out also that the buses now coming into general use offer no relief, since they do not carry colored passengers. The subject of health was discussed by a representative of the state board of health and a report by Professor A. H. Hook of Elon College emphasized the need of better housing for Negroes. Mrs. Kate Burr Johnson, state commissioner of public welfare, and L. A. Oxley, head of the bureau of Negro THREB welfare work, told of the State's extensive welfare program for Negroes, which employs eighteen trained colored workers. Dr.W.C. Jackson, of North Carolina College for Women, was elected chairman for the ensuing year.

The concert was given under the auspices of the local members of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs. Dr. Julia P. Coleman was directly in charge of the program. Because of the long delay in beginning the program, the audience became restless, which later showed its effects on the singer all during the first part of the program. It was 9:15 p. m. before Miss Anderson mounted the platform for her first number. Judging from the applause of the audience, her best work was done in the German numbers.

Dougherty New Management Takes Reins at the Douglas and Roosevelt Houses New Management Takes Reins at the Douglas and Roosevelt Houses Motion Picture Operators Will Be Forced to Join the Union, but Half a Loaf Is Better, Etc. THE new management came into the Douglas and Roosevelt Theatres this week and all colored Harlem will center its eyes upon just what the outcome will be at these houses, where the colored motion picture operators are concerned. Last week Mr. Pekelner took great pains to tell us that the new management would give our colored boys a chance to operate the machines in the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres, but apparently Manager Pekelner also took good pains to keep from us the information that the union would step in and have a say about the matter, because they hold the whiphand over the M. and S. people, who control many theatres outside of this district. Well, thereby hangs a tale, but better half a loaf than no loaf at all. Considering the Jim Crow stipulations in the rules as printed in this paper a few weeks back, it is hard to understand why the union seems to want to function in a district with people who are so hateful to them they are forced to make certain rules for the whites and different rules for the colored operators. We understand that the union will be perfectly satisfied to allow the colored operators full charge of the houses within the next few weeks and then the white operators will be placed in houses where, union or no union. Negroes dare not even hope to enter as motion-picture operators. On the face of it all, the whole matter is damnable, but far be it from us to even attempt to advise WONDERFUL NEW DISCOVERY WHITENS AND CLEARS YOUR SKIN AFTER A FEW TREATMENTS Banish Freckles, Blackheads, Muddiness, Tan, Pimples, Sallowness, Blotches and all Blemishes by this wonderful new scientific treatment, which positively clears and whitens your skin after a few nights' treatment.

They are the ones to judge and, if they have decided to enter the union and creep for a time, well and good. If not, we throw every ounce of what support we can give to them to fight a condition that is deplorable. Negroes are reading their newspapers more and more and they are perfectly aware that they must stick together to get ahead. We await the decision of the motion-picture operators of this city to know whether we are to go into the highways and byways and cry aloud unto the Lord against continued oppression, or if we are to wait a while until such time as the union can be made to see its error by inserting rules which not only fall to jibe with the constitution of this country, but with the laws of this State, which stipulate that race, creed or color should not be a part of any condition wherein certain people are catering to the public. The weapon of the boycott must be used among Negroes when their own are offended. The law which gives these boys the right to make an open appeal to the public for support can be invoked by sending speakers on the corners of Harlem to tell Negroes how they are being discriminated against, while the Greeks coming among us bearing gifts are fattening upon the sweat from our brows and the pound of flesh which they would ring from us without any return. The Lefayette Theatre, Lincoln Theatre, Franklin Theatre, Orient Theatre, Gem Theatre, Renaissance Theatre are all in line to do the right thing by our boys. WILL THE NEW MANAGEMENT OF THE ROOSEVELT AND DOUGLAS COME FORTH WITH A STATEMENT SHOWING THEY ARE WILLING TO DO THE SAME? A William Hart Feature at the New Lincoln When it is reflected that on one scene alone for William S. Hart's "Tumbleweeds," which comes to the Lincoln theatre next Thursday, more than $100,000 worth of cameras were used, fully nineteen being trained on the action, it can be judged that this is one of the world's greatest western pictures. It is Hart's own production for United Artists Corporation release, and is his greatest effort in the eleven years of his successful screen career. The great scene referred to is the land rush which duplicates that which took place thirty-six years ago at the Cherokee Strip between Kansas and Oklahoma. Hundreds of wagons, people, horses and mules were utilized in this great dash—the most thrilling ever depicted for a picture anywhere. The scene was enacted before a crowd of spectators and members of the press and all were thrilled as if by an actual happening in life. King Baggot, director, with his assistant and thirty sub-assistants, staged the one of the event. It is notable that who was injured—not even a horse or dog. Savoy Features to Appear in These Columns Through the courtesy of the publicity department of the new Savoy, which has created such a favorable impression on thousands since the doors were thrown open, we expect to carry from time to time many features in connection with the place which we believe will appeal to our readers. That the Savoy is here to stay is evident not only from the wonderful support, which should occasion no surprise considering the kind of place it is, at the hands of our people, but from the evident desire of the management to please all hands. ssance Theatre "Ibanez Torrent," that famous Monta Bell production, starring Ricardo Cortez and Greta Gorbo, will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre Thursday and Friday. May 13 and 14. The story is by the author of the mighty "Four Horsemen" and deals intimately with that always interesting subject. Spanish love. It is one of the screen's finest pictures and will please all who see it. "The Merry Widow," Eric Von Stroheim's epic production, will be the feature Saturday, Sunday and Monday, May 15, 16 and 17, at the Renaissance Theatre, with Mae Murray and John Gilbert, supported by a large and distinguished cast.

Martin started a series of concerts hoping thereby not only to show the result of the splendid work that he had been doing, but to try and raise funds to carry on that work which has attracted the attention of people all over the country. When Mr. Martin died some time ago his mantle fell on the shoulders of his brave wife who has been carrying on the work with the assistance of sons who will yet make the impression in the world of music which will prove that David I. Martin did not labor in vain. As a fact, the accomplished children he left behind already proves that, to say nothing of those scholars who have had the benefit of the Martin training at the school; hence it is easy to understand why it is such a pleasure to direct the attention of the public to the 19th annual recital and dance which will take place at Manhattan Casino on Friday night. These events have been looked for by hundreds in the past, and the work being one of the most worthy in the city, it is to be hoped that thousands will from tonight also looked forward to the future of what can be accomplished with unselfish support. "For the occasion Fletcher Henderson and his Original Roseland Orchestra and John C. Smith and his Modern Dance Orchestra have been secured to furnish the music for the dance at the conclusion of the concert. This is a big undertaking, and again proves the desire of the management of the school to go far in giving people a "run for their money." The recital will begin at $:30 P. M. sharp, and it is to be hoped that lovers of the best in music be in their seats at this time. All the boxes have been sold and it is natural that the management should feel appreciative of this support by trying to make it pleasant for all hands. Rector and Cooper Revue at the Alhambra The revue headed by Eddie Rector and Ralph Cooper which went on the road some weeks ago will open at the Alhambra Theatre next week. This show is taking the place of the Mills show, which the place of the work and will be the big offering at this theatre for the next few weeks. Bill (Bojangles) Robinson is one of the headliners who will appear during the run of the Rector-Cooper offering. Others to appear include the clubs Pig and Lillard. Adelaide Hnil and Margaret Simms. We understand that the best of scenery will be placed in the show, which will be practically new. A number of other well-known performers will be added to enlarged chorus will vie with the others for first place honors. Cotton Club Draws Big The Cotton Club Revue got off to a big start at the Lafayette Theatre on Monday and standing room was at a premium. So far this revue brings to the Lafayette theatre for four hours of beauties seen even at this house where the best looking girls on the stage have been "carrying on" for months. Some years ago when Marlutch auditioned for a job at Coney Isle reformers went in the air and forced Miss Marie to take a steamboat for Sunny It', but today you can go to the Lafayette Theatre and see everything Marlutch and all the Hawaiian dancers with less clothes than was ever worn before. Comedy, music, snap, ginger and everything is in the Cotton Club Revue and with those good looking men and women all reuses which have gone before them, the house should continue to do a big business.

S., and yet they cannot see the advisability of organizing in a business way for the promotion and protection of their investment; to say nothing of advertising and promoting clean billiards for the pleasure of their patrons. "Country Jess." who is known nationally by old billiard room managers, blew in one of Seventh avenue's best rooms last week with one of our young, ambitious business men who is owner of a fleet of taxis. The management discovered the little party just in time to save the young man from a cleaning out and incidentally saved a billiard patron who did not know the gun was loaded. Just as every one was complimenting one of our best actor pocket billiard players on his improvement in billiard room ethics, it is said that he pulled an awful stunt in a Lenox avenue room last week on Derby and Buster Miller. Both are wondering what they shall do about it. Edward Morton of Saulsbury, N.C., and an active member of the Colored Amateur Billiard Players' Assn., has gone home to visit his folks and will return about June 1. He is very sociable. Compton Glover, Chicago billiardist, passed through New York en route to Paris. Incidentally he dropped in at the Lafayette Emporium and got a game on with "Shakey." While the games were even, 1—1, Compton got a little the best of it. Ginger gave his pal Barney Young a good lacasting last week. Barney's alibi was that he was down home where there were no billiard tables. "Tis said "It is a long road that has no turning." Pres.

Of course, the average person reading these lines will naturally say the only drawback is that Henderson will not be on the job before the early morning hours. Such a state of affairs has held good at many of the affairs and not in the far distant past either, but this Decoration Day night affair is something different and one of the conditions under which Mr. Henderson has been engaged is that he be on the job from early evening until the early morning.

FRANCIS THE first step in the rec structure, controlled as Tennis Assn., took place when at an election of offi Hanson, one of Harlem's m West 10th street, was elected The election of Dr. Hap popular desire of the tenn light this newspaper made o for the election of an executi the cooperative power lodger which has been dormant for instill confidence and stabili who, by his initiative and I to command the respect that deserves THE first step in the reconstruction of the local tennis structure, controlled and directed by the New York Tennis Assn., took place on Monday night, May 3 when at an election of officers of that body Dr. T. E. Hanson, one of Harlem's most popular dentists, of 101 West 101th street, was elected as president. The election of Dr. Hanson was in response to the popular desire of the tennis fraternity, reflected in the fight this newspaper made during the past several weeks for the election of an executive with the ability to harness the cooperative power lodged in the associated clubs, but which has been dormant for the past years, one who could instill confidence and stability in the rank and file, and who, by his initiative and leadership, will show the way to command the respect that the New York Tennis Assn. deserves. Dr. Hanson, who is a member of the Manhattan and Cosmopolitan Tennis Clubs, gave a sample of his ability in organizing and directing when he was appointed last year as chairman of the banquet committee of the association during the 1923 State Championships. This banquet had never been a success, but the good doctor took charge, and for the first time made it a wonderful feature of the annual New York State week of tennis activities. We feel sure that some of our sport loving men and women in Harlem will give the association financial aid in putting through this project, which will mean the building of better bodies and minds of some of our youth, and act as an inspiration to others who will no doubt follow. Those desirous of aiding may now be with the Storries. If the new President shows as much zeal in his office as he did as chairman of that committee, this administration is bound to be a success, and he will contribute to tennis a legacy that not only will not be forgotten, but will be a monument to the advent of real progress in New York tennis circles. Other officers elected with Dr. Hanson are L. E. Spouner of the E. and S. Tennis Club, Vice-President; Albert E. Macdowell of the St. Thomas, Secretary, both re-elected. John W. Stephenson of the Wienna is Treasurer. Chas. Buchanan of the Cosmopolitan is Assistant Secretary. The Executive Committee are as follows: Gerald Norman, Flushing Tennis Club; Arthur E. Francis, St. Thomas; Everard Edmund, E. and S.; Donald Crichton, Cosmopolitan; Robert N. Wood, Ideal; Lonny George, attorney, Grenville. The second step of progress was evidenced in a resolution adopted by the body, making provision for a petition to the associated clubs, for the donation to the association of two paid up memberships from each club, to be used for junior players, these juniors to be recommended to the association through the delegates and assigned by the association to the various clubs. If this is granted by the clubs, it will insure the start of about two dozen young boys and girls in the game this season. We cannot imagine any of the clubs refusing such a request and at the same time considering themselves loyal and progressive. Plans are in the making to help the youngsters with tennis rackets, balls and other tennis paraphernalia, also the services of a qualified tennis coach to give lessons at FROM MANILA the Wonder CIGAR FLOR de ISABELA Royals 5¢ only at UNITED CIGAR STORES Largest in the world because we serve the people best. construction of the local tennis and directed by the New York face on Monday night, May 3, officers of that body Dr. T.

We feel sure that some of our sport loving men and women in Harlem will give the association financial aid in putting through this project, which will mean the building of better bodies and minds of some of our youth, and act as an inspiration to others who will no doubt follow. Those desirous of aiding may get in touch with the Secretary, Mr. A. E. MacDowell of 554 Lenox avenue, or the President, Dr. T. E. Hanson, 101 West 140th street. We have no apologies to offer, no do we have any misgivings for the part we played in arousing public opinion against the deficiencies of the tennis organization in New York. Our articles may have pluqed some of those concerned; this slight resentment will subside, however, as we feel that everyone wants progress, and we cannot correct a wrong by hiding it. We feel ashamed, as a tennis player, to be connected with an organization whose chief function seems to be one of satisfied indolence; we realized that the great Empire State was deserving of a representative tennis body in keeping with its importance as the leading state of the Union. To have kept quiet about conditions as they existed, would have been contrary to our conception of the loyalty we owe the game. Now that we have started on an era of progress, let us work for a coordination of the individual members of the associated clubs, their representatives in the association, and the officers of that body.

Filipino boxer of the 102nd Medical Regiment, in the feature eight round contest in the Forty-seventh Regiment Armory, Brooklyn, last Friday night. Savardo substituted for Dave Kanzer. Savardo stood up gamely under a severe pounding in the seventh. It was his stormiest session. Rash rocked him with lefts and rights to the jaw. Savardo appeared wabby, but made a game stand of it. In the closing seconds of the round Savardo displayed courage, wading in in fearless manner. Rash continued his attack in the final frame, beating his opponent to the punch to win by a considerable margin. Savardo finished none the worse for the beating he received, the judges awarding the verdict to Rash. The weights were: Rash, 118, and Savardo, 11916. Danny Shugrue, crack lightweight of the U. S. Marines, won a hard fought battle from George Williams. Negro lightweight of the 369th Infantry, in the scent-final eight round tilt. This was a close waged affair. Shugrue won because he was the aggressor. He also landed the cleaner punches. Nevertheless, Williams gave a good account of himself. The judges awarded the verdict to Shugrue. The weights were: Shugrue, 137½, and Williams, 137. Scotty Horsburg of the 105th infantry, Ansonia, Conn., stopped Murray Bresner of the Thirty-fifth Infantry, U. S. Army, in the seventh round of a scheduled eight round fracas. Bresner proved an easy mark for the hard hitting Horsburg. After two minutes and seven seconds Bresner's seconds threw a towel into the ring as a token of defeat. Horsburg weighed 117½ and Bresner 116. In the two six round preliminary bouts Andy Masterlone of the Twenty-seventh Train Division and Red Roland of 244th Const Artillery fought a draw, and Al Gwynn of the 106th Infantry outpointed Hass Connolly, also of the 106th infantry. In the opening four rounder Jimmy Empire and Roy Starke, both of the Twenty-seventh Train Division, battled on even terms. HANSON TO HEAD TENNIS BODY HERE Newark Stars Cop Double-Header at Jamaica Baltimore Sox Humbles Proud Hilldale Nine Sunday BALTIMORE, Md., May 9.—The Baltimore Black Sox took a doubleheader from the champion Hillelid Club Sunday, winning the first game 9-2 and the second 11-6. Tarlton Strong made his 1926 debut by winning his game in fine style. He struck out seven and allowed seven hits, while the Sox knocked Winter out of the box in the seventh. Henry, who relieved him, was hatted at will. John Backwell hit his strong stride by getting three hits, a homer and two doubles in the first game; he also got three safe blows in the second, one being a double to center.

Columbia Star Defeats Former De Witt Clinton High School Champ Deck Took the Century by a Yard From Cooke, but Barely Won in the Furlong Columbia's strong track team had no trouble continuing on its winning way when Coach Carl Merner's outfit faced Syracuse on Saturday in the first meet ever held at Baker Field. The final score was 74 to 48, with the Blue and White showing power in both the running and field events. The victors accounted for nine first places in the thirteen events contested. Palmer Wright, Columbia junior, was the outstanding star of the meet, with three first places. The former Flushing High School boy easily won the 120-yard high and 220-yard low hurdles events and also was victorious in the high jump. In winning the high jump Wright topped the stick at 5 feet 11 inches, and defended Huber, of Syracuse, by one inch. Stanley Deck, Columbia's star spinner, and Captain Carl Biggs, of the up-state forces, were double winners. The former won the 100 and 220 yard dashes, in each event defeating Cecil Cooke, ex-Dew Witt Clinton High School boy. Deck was victorious over the Negro luminary by a yard in the century, but barely won in the furlong. Cooke, of course, was at his best in the quarter-mile, his specialty, in which he holds the national senior and junior crowns. In the feature race on the program Jim Loucks, of Syracuse, defeated Bill Schmid, Columbia's star.

St. Paul Holds Annual Intra-Mural Track and Tennis Meet By EDGAR ROBINSON PETERS. LAWRENCE VILLA, Va., May S. —St. Paul held its third annual intra-mural tennis and track meet hero today. The tennis tournament was the first on the day's program. Peters carried away the honors in the singles and doubles matches. Wilbur Nelson being mated with him in the doubles. All opponents were easily eliminated until the finals, when the Poole and Turner combination came within one point of putting them out of the day's running. The third year class was the high point class of the six that participated in the meet, piling up 23 points, to win by a wide margin. They seized first positions in three of the main events. The shot and discus throws were won by Pierce, who outchassed his competitors in form and distance. The half mile was carried off in fast time and was captured by William Travis, one of Conch Boyd's next two-quarter clippers. SUMMARY: 100-Yard Dash—First.

FORDHAM ROAD West of Grand Concourse Raymond 5300 EXPERT TUNING AND REPAIRING Good Colored Fighters Given a Chance in New York This Week Chick Suggs Will Be at Madison Square Garden While Bruce Flowers Will Top Commonwealth Card LOCAL fans of color were very much disheartened last week when they glimmed the offerings of the two places we have been taught to look to for the best of matches in the Greater City, to wit: The Commonwealth Sport Club and Madison Square Garden. Down there, where so many of our good boys have been made to look bad through no fault of their own, Larry Estridge, who hasn't been the same since his last engagement with that former master of the ring, Panama Joe Gans, went in against Sergeant Sammy Baker, and the story told after the fight caused no sensation in Harlem. It was expected that Baker would stow away the colored middle-weight champion. Better men than Estridge have fallen before the Mitchel Field soldier—men known to be able to assimilate oodles of punishment, and knowing Estridge as we do, we cannot see how anybody could think he had a chance against Baker. At the Commonwealth Sport Club they promised Big Munn against Bill Bailey, and praise be it failed to materialize. Who Bill Bailey is we know not, neither do the fans in these parts, and the consensus of opinion was that Munn was being built up by being thrown a number of unknowns from the colored race. His first fight at the same club should not add any laurels to him, for who knew the unfortunate picked for him to murder? But this week the story is different. Down at Madison Square Garden Chick Suggs, king of New England and the real champion of the bantams, will go in against Johnny Brown, while up here at the Commonwealth on Saturday night, Bruce Flowers will top a mixed card against Billy Palmer, son of the immortal Pedlar Palmer of England. We are willing to wager that more colored fans will turn out this week than was the case last week, for when it wasn't a case of unknown and untried victims, as many believed, there was that poor, mighty poor, match that brought Baker and Estridge together. The old guard will most likely be on hand when the fireworks start at the Commonwealth this week and we hope that Matchmaker Eddie McMahon will be able to secure some other good fighters from among us to continue that splendid work started by his brother Jess, who for more than two years on a stretch not only gave our colored boys a chance, but went out of his way to secure promising material to put against the white boys. The Hawtree Indians divided their twin bill with the Penn Red Caps at Community Stadium on Sunday, winning the first, 10 to 6, while the visitors copped the honors in the second, 10 to 9. In the first game the homesters came from behind to tie the score in the third, getting three runs in this session. They kept up the onslaught on Stark till Revers took the hill and then scored three tallies in the sixth. In the last half of the seventh the home team had scored ten runs before one out was made and as the visitors were saving Wiley for the second game, Manager Sandt consented to halting the game and the score reverted back to the first half of the inning. The second game found the colored lads a much improved outfit as they shifted around the players and this was a wise move, as they soon had Cullum on the run and pounded the offerings of Hokinson until he was relieved by Kaiser. Joe put a halt to the visitors' heavy stickwork and would have held them scoreless had a ball not rolled away from an outfielder. Kaiser is becoming quite popular with the fans, as he is the only Hawtree pitcher who is getting by in all his games. Joe has worked in three of the four games played. Wollweber is also giving signs of developing into a star as his catching is of the highest order. As yet no man has been fast enough to beat his throws to second. Fred Mundhenk was the batting star of the day, getting two homers and three singles in eight times at bat. The scores: RED CAPS. AB. R. H. O. A.

May 9.—The eyes of the world of fistlecuffs today are turned toward the city that hasn't seen a real boxing match in twenty-four years — Chicago — but which now looms as the scene of many of the leading bouts of this year. Those same eyes have looked over, under, or around the mid-West metropolis for years because it wasn't legal to fight here. But the election of April 13 changed the whole boxing situation when voters of the city favored the legalization of boxing. Lincoln Hospital Nurses' Alumnae Ass'n ANNUAL BLUE BIRD DANCE TO BE HELD AT RENAISSANCE CASINO 138th St. and Seventh avenue FRIDAY EVENING, MAY THE FOURTEENTH Music by Renaissance Dance Orchestra Director: Mr. Vernon Andrade SUBSCRIPTION $1.00 Batting Rally Gives Lincoln Giants an Even Break Against Bacharach Nine Grier Puts Up Brilliant Mound Performance, but Had Streak Broken in the Ninth After being defended by the expert pitching of Claude Grier in the first game of their double headed Sunday, the Lincoln Giants staged a batting rally in the second game and won an 11-7 victory from the Bacharach Giants. The Lincoln scored 9 runs in one inning of the second game and it required the whole pitching staff of the Atlantic City team to retire the side. Grier was in his best form for the opening encounter and almost pitched a no hit game. He held the local team hitless until the ninth inning. In that frame Singer and Hudspeth made singles and George Johnson made a two-bagger. The Bacharachs, on the other hand, hit Chambers hard, resulting in an 8-2 victory for them. Manager Lloyd tried out one of his busher pitchers, a six foot boy by the name of Gillmore, in the second game, and although it was Gillmore's first appearance in league baseball the general consensus of opinion was that he made good. The visitors did their best to get Gillmore rattled but he was cool under fire as at any other time and it looks as though Lloyd has a real find in him. However, he will be given a more severe test next Sunday when he faces the heavy-hitting Harrisburg Giants, whose manager is Oscar Charleston, the greatest player in the Eastern League, "Fut" Jankins, local basketball star, is also in the Harrisburg lineup. The scores of the Lincoln-Bacharach games were: First Game. BACHARACH GIANTS. AB. R. H. O. A. García, 2b. 3 1 0 3 4 Chicago Taking New Life Because of And Recalls That Boxing W City After the Fight Between Brooklyn, and Joe CHICAGO. May 9.—The today are turned toward the boxing match in twenty-four y now looms as the scene of this year. Those same eyes have le the mid-West metropolis for to fight here. But the elect whole boxing situation when legalization of boxing. The boys in the Loop are already talking about the holding of a Dempsey-Wills fracas here. Floyd Fitzsimmons, the only man in the world who ever persuaded Harry and Jack to put their names on the same piece of paper, is known to favor this city for the match. Gossip has it that some of the delay and dickering concerning this match has been due to a desire to see what Illinois would do with the boxing referendum before any action be taken regarding the scene of the battle. Dempsey is also known to favor the Windy City. Willis doesn't care much where the fight is held. Another bout that quite likely will be held here is one between Sammy Mandell and Sid Terris for the lightweight championship of the world. It is also expected that Bud Taylor, the Terre Haute, Ind., flash, will appear here in a match for the bantamweight championship. Another match suggested is one between Young Stribling and Eddie Huffman, the rising young light heavyweight. These are only a few of the matches that should come Chicagoway, and it is quite likely that plenty of others will loom in a short time. Already places in which fights may be held are at a premium. Jim Mullen, Chicago's leading promoter, has already bargained for the White Sox baseball park. The Colleum Athletic Club is a potential scene. Various promoters and organizations have already "scoped up" about all the available sights for holding the matches. It is the first time since 1902 that Chicago has had excuse to get excited about boxing.

Bout Fixed, Cry Fans. A great deal of money had been wagered on Gans. When he lost the cry that the bout was fixed went up. Then a law was passed that made it illegal for even a father to box with his son in his own back yard, so airtight was it. Then in 1900 Chicago boxing promoters learned that they could evade this law by holding "boxing matches." The prize-fight law did not say anything about "boxing exhibitions." Carter Harrison, the mayor of the city at that time, permitted "boxing exhibitions." But the McGovern-Gans fight and subsequent developments stopped that and Chicago has gone without fighting since that time. Floyd G.

Just to think of it, in 15½ hours; less than a day's journey for us when we went, they reached the pole. I wish that I could make an aeroplane flight to the pole, but never again on foot for me. To go there by man power is killing and, then (with a little laugh), I'm getting altogether too young to try that any more." Good-Humored and Affable. Henson is a good-natured, very affable and frank man. He is slightly bald and has a small, dark mustache. He wears horn-rimmed spectacles. In telling the story of his late adventure, he said: "It took us from March 1 to April 6, or about 35 days, to get to the North Pole. When we reached there, the Pole did not live up to its press notices. All that we saw was a vast field of ice without any open water, broken here and there by a hummock, and with no animal life of any kind. It was an absolutely silent world. "In fact, it didn't look much different from the way the North River might look if it were frozen over from shore to shore." "We reached the pole, the commander, myself and four Eskimos who were with us, between S and R to cross in the evening, having traveled 413 geographical miles from Columbia, which we left on March 1. We were too tired to do anything except build igloos and tumble into them. But the next day Commander Peary made observations from four different quarters with a sextant and the use of mercury for an artificial horizon. At the Top of the World. "I shall never forget how he returned to me with glistening eyes and said: 'Well, my boy, in the more than twenty years that we have been together we have been trying to get to the apex of the earth. Today we can shake hands and say that we are two men who have reached at last the top of the world." "At first it was hazy up there," said Henson, as his eyes took on a reexistent light, "but on the CHURCH NOTICE IN spirit and truth. S.

"Several of friends had taken Cardui and they said to me, 'Why don't you try it?' I knew I needed something to build up my general health and to increase my strength. "Finally one day when I was recovering from a spell of sickness, I decided to try Cardul. I got a bottle and began to take it. I could notice that I was improving as my appetite got better and I did not give out nearly so quick. I took several bottles and I felt lots better. "Two years ago I decided to take it again.

After he had taken his observations and made sure of the fact that we had reached the Pole—the first set of observations showed we had overshot it a little bit—Commander Peary made a record of the event and wrote all our names and the date and time in a little notebook. "He put the record in a metal tube six inches long and one and one-half inches wide. Of course, that tube would not remain there, but would be carried away by the movement of the ice. "In the first stages of our journey to the Pole we had our most difficult march. We walked eleighteen or twenty hours a day until we were ready to drop, and we had to stop time and time again to break through the huge hummocks of ice which confronted us. In spots they were 50 to 100 feet high. Assistant to Peary. "I was the trail breaker after Captain Bartlett turned back to the ship which we left on February 16, 1999, at Cape Sheridan. Grantland, 80 miles south of Cape Columbia. We went forward on snowshoes and after we had gone forward about a mile or so we doubled and picked up the sledges. Then we would leave the sledges and break a path ahead once more. "Often these hummocks shut out any view of the horizon in front of us and they were so difficult to contend with that at one time it took us a whole day to get over one of them. We went forward in twos, each couple close together. We had eight dog teams. I was in charge of the equipment. I ordered the whale boats used in the expedition and designed and made the sledges. I also did carpenter work. My job was that of an assistant to Commander Peary. "Going out from Cape Columbia the first stages of our journey were mighty rough and we had to wield a pickaxe constantly to cut the ice. At one time the ice in motion sounded like thunder as it moved swiftly to the eastward and it cut right into our igloo. "The rough going made it impossible for us to go more than 15 miles a day, so you can see how the flight by air compares with man power. Commander Peary often said that he thought that the real way to reach the Pole would be by air, and I believe that he set apart or offered Eagle Island as a base for aircraft. "On that long tramp North, walking every day until we were ready to drop, and doubling back after trotting a trail so as to bring up our sledges, we lived on ternican, which is dried beef, hard tack, and each man was permitted one quart of tea a day. "When some of the dogs grew weak and could not go any further they were killed, and the third quarters fed to the other dogs, while the forequarters were eaten by us. We called it terminican. It was not so bad, either. "As we neared the region of the pole, conditions of travel improved and the last 125 miles or so were much easier going. Sometimes, one or other of us broke through the ice, but always managed to get out before we had sunk below the waist. We left the pole on the eighth, after sleeping at night in igloos on the ice floes. "There was no place up there that offered a safe landing place for aircraft. On our way back we were able to go much faster, because we had the trail which we had cut on the way up. But, sometimes, it was rather difficult for us to find it, and we had to scout around until we picked it up again. "We were able sometimes, with the aid of our slodges, to make no much as 50 miles in a day of 18 or 20 hours and frequently 25 or 30. "It was 25 or 30 degrees below zero at the Pole and there were soft drifts of snow there. Otherwise, it was just an ice waste, without any prominent features." Henson said he had been on previous expeditions with Commander Peary, the first in 1891, and from then until 1909, when the Pole was found, he went frequently to the Arctic regions with the American naval officer. Henson was born in Cape Charles, Md., and when he made his first trip to the Arctic regions with Peary he had just returned from an expedition to Nicaragua, where it is quite warm. He remarked somewhat succinctly that being unacquainted with conditions in the Arctic region, he failed to dress for his first trip and wore over his coat and waistband News of Brooklyn and Long Island only a sealskin coat, two pairs of woolen stocks and ordinary rubbers over his shoes. Pulled down over his head, he wore a woolen cap. "I froze my nose and the rest of my face, somewhat," he said. "But later I learned better and took measures to protect myself properly. On inter trips I suffered no more than anybody else. I was the hunter for the party, as well as being in charge or equipment." Little Boy Burned to Death HEMPSTEAD, L. I., May 9.—Thomas Coles, Jr., 6 months old, was burned to death and his brother, Roger, 2 years old, was seriously burned, here last week when fire destroyed the one-story house in which they lived. Roger was taken unconscious to the Nassau County Hospital, where it was said his condition was serious. The origin of the blaze was not determined. Attorney Rufus Perry Bites Through Side of Flushing House Popular Brooklyn Barrister Gives Unique Demonstration in Queens Supreme Court "I have always been opposed to houses being sold to people on plans and pictures, and then, when built, not conforming to the representations made," declared Justice Mitchell May in the Queens Supreme Court in denying the motion of Mendel Presberger, an officer and director of the Flushing Lawns Corporation, to foreclose a mortgage held by Presberger on the premises of Charles V. Richey, 7131 1608 street, Flushing. Director of Corporation. The Richey premises is one of the so-called "paper houses" in queens. The motion was made by the plaintiff (Presberger) for judgment on the pleadings, that is, on the complaint and answer, without permitting the defendant the right to hear it. She is only authorized usually in cases where the answer of the defendants admit, or does not controvert, the allegations of the complaint. Richie's answer, served April 17, to the torreclosure suit, alleged fraud on the part of Presberger in the making of the mortgage. Richie's answer further contends that Presberger is a director of the Flushing Lawn Corporation and that the mortgage which he sought to foreclose was given by the Flushing Lawn Corporation to Presberger, its director for the express purpose of writing on the purchaser of the house; to divest the corporation of its assets to which the purchaser of the house would have a right to look for redress and to otherwise render itself financially irresponsible. Justice May, in denying the motion, said that fraud was alleged in the answer and that he would permit the attorneys to stipulate to try the cases next Friday. Takes Bite Out of Wall. Attorney Rufus Perris of Brooklyn who represents Riley, produces a piece of the material which he alleges, is "composition paper," that the sides and roof of Richey's house were constructed of, into Queens Supreme Court and standing before Justice May bit a large piece out of the material to demonstrate his claims as to its filmy qualities. Richey, in his answer, charges that the house, built by the Flushing Lawns Corporation, their agent, was built as represented. The affidavits submitted in his answer read in part: "The sides and roof of sold houses were built and constructed of a composition paper, which is highly inflammable and dangerous to like and limb—sold house was built in violation of the Building Code of the City of New York and such was known to the plaintiff." Coleman He further contends that while the houses were being purchased that, Presberger, through the agents, entered into a conspiracy with James Coleman, a building inspector, whose district covered the premises: "To permit the erection of said house of faulty and inferior material, contrary to an ample by the painting, violation of the Building Code of the City of New York and caused the Queens Building Bureau to issue a certificate of occupancy on false reports made by Joseph Feldman." James Coleman, the inspector named in the affidavits of Richey, resigned several months ago as an assistant to the charge of the charge by Richey was started by Borough President Maurice E. Connolly and Superintendent John W. Moore of the Queens Building Bureau. CRYSTAL PALACE Open for accommodations for Tourista. Sunday dinner from 1 to 4 P. M. and week-ends. MRS. W. A.

Dr. Thomas S. Harten, before Justice Callaghan in the Supreme Court, will not be proceeded against for perjury, according to the statement of Dr. Harten last week. Retaliation will consist only in their dismissal from the church. Dr. Harten was acquitted Tuesday afternoon on five charges, including false arrest, slander and assault, brought against him by John Fletcher Paige and his wife, Ollie, former members of his congregation. During the trial, at which the Paiges were represented by Frank Harvey Field, and Harten by Rufus Perry, about half a dozen members of the congregation gave testimony against thir pastor. The church's Board of Deacon's is the opinion that these persons are the members whom Dr. Harten has described as "the disgruntled who wish to get rid of me at any price." That the sentiment of the church is at present wholly in favor of Dr. Harten was demonstrated at the services held on Sunday. There were loud and resounding cheers when several of the members verb- EXCLUSIVELY Roxy De "NOWHERE C.

Deacon Stephen Gray congratulated Dr. Harten on his victory and joined with Allan Dillard, another of the deacons, in commending him as the best pastor the church has ever had. R. Austin and Miss Lillian Corbett also made congratulatory speeches, while Mrs. Nancy White, president of the church's missionary society, presented Dr. Harten with a basket of roses, gift of the congregation. The only disturbance to mar the harmony was the apparent venom of one of the erstwhile witnesses for the plaintiff, a woman, who, as Dr. Harten entered the vestibule of the church Sunay, made a gesture as if to strike him and used abusive language, according to several of the bystanding members. A skirmish was avoided, however, by Dr. Harten's stepping out of her reach and continuing into the church. Other testimonials of confidence were the gift of a purse of $700 from the congregation and the donation of a $1,000 bill by an individual member. Dr. Harten's sermon treated with "Mother's Day." His only remark to his congregation concerning his plans for disposition of the insurgent members was: "Charges of perjury will not be brought against those here who lifted their voices against me in court. I have no desire to even collect those damages which are due me. My only wish is to return good for evil." The Board of Deacons, which will meet within ten days, will consider the expulsion of the insurgent members.

The quoted statement adds that race "is by no means the whole record and no man will kept out on grounds of race." The editors of the student organ said that Mr. Pennypacker had certified as correct the statements attributed to him. "The whole record does include evidences of the candidate's personality and promise," the quoted statement reads, "this fitness to give the most to Harvard and to derive the most from what Harvard has to offer. Traits of character which tend to prevent a boy from becoming a part of our great fellowship of Harvard will be weighed. Among these traits may be extreme racial characteristics. Race is a part of the record. It is by no means the whole record and no man will be kept on grounds of race, but these racial characteristics which make for isolation will, if they are borne by the individual, be taken into consideration as a part of that individual's characteristics, under the evidence of character, personality and promise. "If there should result in fact any substantial change in the proportion of groups in the college following the application of the test, this will be due not to race discrimination or any quota system but to the failure of particular individuals to possess as individuals those evidences of character, personality and promise which, welched with other evidences, render them more fit than other individuals to receive all that Harvard has to offer. Of course there will be criticisms. It will be said that Harvard is discriminating on grounds of race. That will not be true." Frat Asks Funds for Col. Young Monument Epsilon Chapter of the Omega Pal Phl fraternity is doing its share in the national drive of the fraternity for funds to erect a fitting monument over the grave of the late Colonel Charles Young in Arlington National Cemetery at Washington, D. C. A committee under the chairmanship of Dr. William H. Allen of 239 West 135th Street has been appointed and is making arrangements for a mass meeting in honor of the memory of the late Colonel. Realizing that the public at large would like to share in this monument to do honor to one who did his whole race great honor, the committee would be glad to receive subscriptions to the fund from anyone interested. Checks and money orders should be made payable to Col. Young Memorial Fund and forwarded to Dr. William H. Allen at 239 West 135th Street.

Mr. O'Meally is fully equipped with the necessary laboratory instruments, such as precision voltmeters, milliammeters, filament emission meters, oscillators and wavemeters to make complete tests on any radio set The Literary Indigestion BY J. FRANK DILLARD. WHAT little I know is what I read in the paper and hear other people say. Of course I sometimes attend a movie, and find something enlightening and interesting in the "news reels," but after that I just take consolation in the thoughts of what I should know. And to acquire what little amount of intelligence I have, I was forced to listen, observe and keep my mouth shut—none of which was in the least congruent to my native. But I gues it is best not to know so much—at times—and it is of far more importance to realize the fact. Then one doesn't become nearly so sophisticated. And to complement the matter, it causes one to give other people credit for having at least an lot of common sense; and, when in one's more magnanimous mood, even a fairly good portion of intelligence. No longer than last week I saw in the paper where the "drys" were trying to keep the country "soaked"; and the "wets" were trying to repeal or modify some Volstead Act. During the investigation, which was then in progress, the drys certainly did make it hot for the wets and Attorney Emory R. Buckner, the enforcement chief for this district, who seemed to me to be testifying in behalf of the wets. While cross-questioning Attorney Buckner, the committee almost had him with his back to the wall, when he was snowing and proving statistics about those 60,000,000 gallons of alcohol consumed yearly by the public, not to mention the thousands of cases smuggled in from Kentucky, Tennessee and other places. But Buckner let them know that that appellation "attorney" attached to his name wasn't an honorary degree. And to show his resourcefulness and knowledge of contemporary American psychology he emotionally asserted when in the very embarrassing predicament: "Now that's where the——in the woodpile lies." At which the entire committee just roared; and from that time on he was the recipient of their paternal favor, and got everything he was trying to get except the thing everybody thought the wets wanted—and that was repeal or modification of the Volsted Act, or at least a referendum—which is the return of the personal liberties of the vast majority of the public. The drys didn't have a chance when their turn came to deal, because the wets had used their trump card; and the papers wouldn't print anything they had to say anyway. So the whole thing simmered down to just another investigation, and the usual request for an appropriation of approximately a hundred million dollars more for the enforcement of prohibition, which would lay the foundations for future investigations and more contemplated appropriations. And thus it goes. Gosh! What a mixed-up affair it is! (The investigation of course). Citizens' Council Sponsors Clean-Up Campaign Clean language, clean homes, clean streets, clean parks and clean amusements are some of the phrases stressed by the Citizens' Welfare Council this week in its clean-up campaign.

Fisk Students Endow School Fisk Students Endow School Majority of Senior Class Take Out $500 Policies Payable to University NASHVILLE, Tennessee, May 10.—That there is a new spirit at Fisk University, and that the students are manifesting a loyalty unprecedented in the history of the school or in the history of our group, was evidenced recently when a large percentage of the senior class took our policies, $500 endowment, with the Supreme Life and Casualty Co. of Columbus, O., making them payable and irrevocable to the university. This is equivalent to an outright endowment, since after a period of three years the school may begin to realize on the policy. At the death of the policy-holder or after a period of twenty years the entire face value of the policy will be paid to the university. The total amount of insurance written on the senior class amounted to approximately $25,000. Credit is due to Mr. E. L. Powell State Director of West Virginia for the Supreme Life and Casualty Co. who is an alumnus of Fisk, for initiating and carrying this project through, it was declared.

Detective Wiesner of the Missing Persons' Bureau said that the last clue of her whereabouts has dwindled down almost to a mere hope. Appeals have been broadcasted over the radio and friends have joined hands with the family in their hunt for Serena. It is believed by the girl's parents that she is being held against her will as a prisoner. Wearing a black overcoat with a gray squirrel collar and black silk dress, Serena left, home to visit a girl friend. When she did not return for dinner her mother called the girl she had left to visit. The girl friend, however, had not seen Serena.

May 10.—Before the Senate Sub-committee on the Judiciary in the "wet and dry" hearing, Dr. I. Garland Penn, Cincinnati, Ohio, made a plea for the appointment of more Negroes as assistant United States district attorneys and prohibition enforcement officers as an aid toward stricter and more general enforcement of the Volstead Act and the Eighteenth Amendment. "Negro bootleggers are in most cases affiliated with white bootleggers, and apprehension of both by Negro officers is more likely than otherwise," he said. The fine work of former Assistant United States District Attorney Beatty in Cincinnati was referred to by Dr. Penn in the apprehension and conviction of the many Cincinnati police who were sent to the Atlanta Federal prison.

News of Churches, Fraternities and Organizations Haynes Emphasizes Church Strength Speaking before the General Conference of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in Kansas City last Friday night, Dr. George E. Haynes, Secretary Commission on the Church and Race Relations, Federal Council of Churches, said in part: "The Negro group must meet the conditions of the Negro church or organization. What organization has the Negro comparable to the Negro Church? First, in the matter of numbers there are more Negroes actually enrolled in Negro church denominations than in all the other organizations put together except the secret societies. Look at the matter of the strength of age and the number of Negroes more than 100 years old and has survived and grown each decade. What is the evidence when we turn to the matter of financial power and support? Today there is probably more money invested in Negro church property than any other one phase of Negro economic life and that makes more money for general and specific purposes than all of Negro business organizations. clates, and Counsellor David C.

Next Sunday Burgen, sobering in a full their of Philadelphia, Pa., at the Lyceum hour, Mr. Nicholson, bartonite; Miss Philth Burgen, sobering; Mrs. Bassie Thomas Russell, contralto, and others. Address by Supreme Court Justice Philip McBook. "Turn, if you will, to the personnel. With all the criticism of its ministry, from local preachers to bishops and general officers, presidents and moderators there, and ministers begin and act within the ranks of the leadership of the church than in any other of our professional groups except probably the teaching profession. But, after all, where lies the organized power of the church? The church is the most unique of our institutions and agencies, which would be based on basis it does. Could the theatres last six months by giving everybody the privilege who came to make a voluntary collection for its support? "The Protestant Negro churches have grown rapidly the past 60 years. With their bishops, their presidents of conventions, moderators, district superintendents, and central ministers they have made great headway in organizing and serving the people in many ways. "What is the call, now, that comes as the great challenge of this our day to this giant organized power in the Negro church? There are two types of things that the two bodies of the Negro church must be to justify its place of power and responsibility. (1) It must realize its opportunity and begin to function in that opportunity as the great agent for dealing with the social and community conditions in the internal life of the Negro church, and every one of the great centers of population now numbering more than 70 cities where Negroes are congregated in great numbers the problem of their place in industry is no longer and can no longer be the question of the individual. The question of the nation can be met by organized labor, but the white labor unions would have taken a different attitude toward the Negro worker if the organized power in the Negro church had been a functioning factor in dealing with the wage and work conditions of the great masses. I know questions of the church; but my friends, these are questions of life and labor, and can the problems of life and labor be separate from religion? Is not the great function of religion to solve the problems of life and labor? If, then the church, or the government, it must deal with these practical problems of life and labor. "Again, let us look at the great housing issues now so crucial in every one of our northern cities. This involves not only the question of the internal condition of the Negro, but involves his relationship with his white neighbors. If the Negro church in personnel and social service organization was today able to step out in the forefront of the problem of adjusting the housing, community conditions and conditions of Negroes in a hundred cities and towns north and south, we would immediately see a new day in both the internal community life of the Negro and his relationships with his white neighbors. "Turn in another direction. Look at the great leisure-like needs of these teaming millions who are crowding into our industrial and commercial centers. They are havingings—mores money than they have ever known before. Their hours of work are shortening and their hours of leisure are lengthening. What is being provided to take care of this leisure? In many communities, their right and opportunity to furnish the outlet for these leisure-time activities." Mother Zion Church The largest Mother's Day celebration in the history of Mother Zion Church took place Sunday. Rev. J. W. Brown preached from Prov. 1:8—"My Son, Forsake Not the Law of Thy Mother."

This was the charge brought to the attention of the twelfth annual meeting of the New Jersey Organization of Teachers of Colored Children which met at the New Lincoln school of Trenton to-day. Swedensboro, Heverly, Glassboro, Cinnaminson, Salem, and Cape May were among the towns and townships of New Jersey which were declared by President L. B. Granger to be more typical of Georgia and South Carolina than of an unlightened northern community. Unequal salaries for colored teachers, unsanitary buildings, and text books in poor condition were some of the ways in which one or another of these towns were alleged to discriminate against their colored pupils. Howard H. Long, Assistant superintendent in charge of Research of Washington schools, was the principal speaker of the afternoon. Mr. Long flagged the present method of using intelligence tests and of inferring from these tests that Negroes are inferior mentally. Annitting that according to the tests, Negroes rate lower as a whole, the speaker went on to expose the fallacy of many methods of application. For instance, Harlen Negroes average higher than southern whites of South Carolina, Georgia and Florida. A filing was taken at the popular Nordic cult that is finding so much favor among pseudo and near scientists of today. Southern states, whose stock is almost pure in "Nordic" rate consistently at the foot of the ladder when it comes to statistics on venereal disease, criminality, feeble-mindedness, etc., while Massachusetts, Maine, and Vermont, with a racial stock of non-Nordic origin, rate at the head. Helen Weld, a white high school pupil of Englewood, was the winner of the organization's prize in the short story contest. The conditions of the contest demanded that each contestant write a story depicting the charm of the colored child. Miss Melissa A. Jones of Atlantic City was the chairman of the literary committee. The following officers were repre- ceded for the coming year: Lester B. Granger, Horntown, president; Gertrude P. Williams, Moorstown, vice-president; W. H. Johnson, Condon, treasurer; Cornelia E. Chamber of Atlantic City, recording secretary; W. M. Morrell, Horntown, corresponding secretary; T. Montgomery Gregory, Atlantic City, field agent. Eleven Choirs to Sing in Choir Contest BORDETOWN, May 8—Eleven books from ten different cities of New Jersey are competing this year for the Bordentown Choir Cup, a massive silver trophy standing 20 inches high, which will be presented to the choir that receives the judges' award on May 16.

Gov. Moore to Address Insurance Stockholders NEWARK, N. J., May 10.—In a letter addressed to Harry H.

I have never found anything that served me so well. "Since I have known about Black-Draught, I have not suffered nearly so much with headache, caused from indigestion. If I find my tongue is coated, and I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth, I know I have been eating indiscreetly, and I immediately resort to Black-Draught to straighten me out."

Wednesday, May 12, 1926 Low-Rent Houses in Sight THE ANNOUNCEMENT that John D. Rockefeller, Jr., has purchased sixty city lots in the northern extremity of Negro Harlem, on which he plans to erect low-rent apartment houses for colored tenants, offers the most tangible solution of the acute moderatelypriced housing shortage prevailing in this section of the city. While the area in which Negroes live has more than doubled itself since the war, the rents charged in apartment houses thus opened and in the new houses erected during the same period have been so exorbitant that honest working people of small means have not been benefited in the least. WHAT HAVE BEEN THE RESULTS? Summarized by the New York Urban League, they are: "Exorbitant rents necessitate three, four and five average families living in a flat intended for just one family. In many cases children are forced to work to meet the demands of greedy landlords. Mothers also are forced to toil at actual manual labor, while their children are left at home neglected. "Delinquency, immorality and other equally deplorable conditions are an inevitable offshoot of this mode of life. "The menace to health presented in this situation is very great. The sanitary conditions resulting from this abnormal overcrowding have been responsible for the spreading of contagious diseases in the 'colored belt' and many consequent deaths." THEREFORE, we know of no other humanitarian purpose to which Mr. Rockefeller could devote a portion of his wealth, especially that part of it he has devoted to Negroes, than the building of apartment houses people can afford to live in and yet return a reasonable profit to their owners. His philanthropic ventures in Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. building for Negroes, his generous contributions to Negro schools and colleges, social and charitable agencies, are not near so important in comparison as the providing of decent homes for the immediate relief of a condition which makes charity necessary. THE CUSTOM of observing Mother's Day antedates the Christian era, though the specific designation of the second Sunday in May was but recently made in the United States. The worship of Rhea, great mother of the gods, was introduced into Rome, through Greece. 250 years before Christ, and elaborate ceremonies held on the Ides of March each year, since which time its significance has gradually taken on its present meaning. "WHITE SERVITUDE in Pennsylvania" is the title of a book by Dr. Checsman A. Herrick, president of Girard College. The British Strike ENGLAND is now in the midst of an economic upheaval second only to the opening days of the World War. Already the miners' strike has involved more than two and a half million workers in the principal industries of the country. England today is an armed camp-armed against itself. Eventually, and unless the strike is called off, or unless the striking miners' and operators agree to arbitration, there will be serious consequences in every part of the British domain and the entire civilized world. THE CAUSES of the strike are stated and restated from day to day and need no reiteration here, beyond mention of the fact that the wages of striking miners ranged from $1.62 to $2.62 per shift, and that the new terms, which the miners refused to accept, reduced the wage per shift by from twenty-eight to eighty-five cents, presenting an unattractive inducement for the importation of workers, white or black, from any section of the world other than those under the British domain. WE ARE MORE INTERESTED in the consequences than in the causes of the strike. The population of the British Empire is about five hundred million, four hundred million of which is of the darker races. Should complete disruption set in—and it is sure to set in unless the strike is settled—a new day for these races will dawn. H. R. 9694 HAVING WEATHERED a filibuster in the House of Representatives, the Hamilton Fish Bill for the erection of a monument to American Negro troops brigaded with' the French now goes to the Senate Committee on Military Affairs. With the exception of Representative Stephen G. Porter, of Pittsburgh, every Republican in the House is recorded as having voted for the bill. WHAT the record in the Senate will be cannot be foretold. Senator James W. Wadsworth, of New York, is chairman of the committee and the same pressure that was brought to bear in the House should now be directed at Senator Wadsworth and other members of the committee to assure a favorable report on it. ONE SOUTHERN Congressman, claiming to number many Negroes in his constituency, in opposing the bill said that they were not interested in its passage. Present such an assumption on the part of the members of the Senate Committee by writing them and telling them that you are in favor of the bill. Aside from Senator Wadsworth, the other northern and border Senators on the committee are: Francis E. Warren, of Wyoming; Ralph E. Cameron, of Arizona; Frank L. Greene, of Vermont; Hiram Bingham, of Connecticut; W. H. McMaster, of South Dakota; W. P. Pine, of Oklahoma; Arthur R. Robinson, of Indiana; William Cabell Bruce, of Maryland, and Lawrence D. Tyson, of Tennessee. Mention the Bill by number, H. R. 9694. THE VALUE of public school building in Georgia has just been shown to be $58.72 for each white child and $10.02 for the Negro child; expenditures for new buildings per child, white, $2.84; Negro, 27 cents; expenditures for equipment per child, white, 40 cents; Negro, 3 cents. There is no corresponding disproportion in the assessment of taxes. "White" Christians "White" Christians By WILLIAM PICKENS THERE are white skins science will have it: t brown ones. But a Christians? Is color a qual seem so, else we should hape are all hypocrites and r seem to be "white" Y. M "white" Baptists. Methodist THERE are white skins and black ones — or as strict science will have it: there are lighter skins and dark-brown ones. But are there "white" and "black" Christians? Is color a quality of Christianity? It would seem so, else we should have to conclude that white people are all hypocrites and not ever real Christians. There seem to be "white" Y.M.C.A.s, "white" Y.W.C.A.s, "white" Baptists, Methodists, etc., etc. There is a school on Gramercy Park, New York, which has the erf宗tery to announce itself as TRAINING SCHOOL FOR CHRISTIAN WORKERS. That is a forgery: they have deliberately left out the word "white." They are therefore deceivers and swindlers. Miss Carrie G. Hargrave, of Wilmington, N. C., seeing this forged label, wrote the school in good faith, as she desired to become a "Christian worker." and received the following letter: "My dear Miss Hargrave: Your letter reached me this morning and I regret to say that we do not accept colored students in our school. I would suggest your writing to the National Bible Institute. "I am glad to know you are interested in taking training for Christian social service, for there is an increasing demand for trained leaders. "Will you please fill in the enclosed blank and return to me, giving me the names and addresses of three persons who know you well, to whom I can write for letters of reference? "Will you also please send me your latest photograph? "You will be interested in looking over the enclosed weekly schedule, which will give you some idea of our daily program. "Very sincerely yours. (Signed) "CHARLOTTE A. PORTER" Then the unsuspecting Miss Hargrave, with a heart full of Christian hope, filled out the blanks honestly, compiled with My Impression o My Impression of Perry W. Howard By WM. H. FERRIS, A.M. Author of the African Abroad The friends of Hon. Perry W. Howard National Committeeman from Mississippi and the United States Attorney General, were gra that he was exonerated from the charges ma sentative Jeff Bushy, Democrat, of Mississippi The friends of Hon. Perry W. Howard, Republican National Committeeman from Mississippi and assistant to the United States Attorney General, were gratified to learn that he was exonerated from the charges made by Representative Jeff Busby, Democrat, of Mississippi. It seems that Representative Busby, a disciple of Vardaman, does not take kindly to the idea of a colored man dispensing patronage in Mississippi, as all matters of Federal patronage are referred to Howard for a recommendation, which is always predicated upon the recommendations of the chairman and secretary of the local county organization of the county in which the office lies, who are, in the majority of cases, colored July. I was first impressed by his manly bearing, his ease of manner and the note and ring of sincerity in his voice. I was next impressed by what he said and by what he did not say. He did not make any spread-eagle speech, did not attempt to play on the racial passions or prejudices of his hearers—but talked sense. In the course of his address he paid a tribute to Attorney Thomas Walker which "in felicity of It is a law of physics that one and the same body cannot occupy two separate and distinct places at one and the same time, and it is equally true in psychic affairs that one and the same individual cannot be a lamb and a lion at one and the same time. Now, this is the unique position which the Hon. Perry W. Howard seems to occupy at present. At the same time that a few colored men up North and out West are calling him an "Uncle Tom," a few Caucasians down in Mississippi are calling him a Czar and Dictator. How can we solve this Sphinx riddle? The Sphinx riddle was: "Who is the being that walks first on four feet, then on two, and then on three?" The answer of Oedipus was "MAN." So the answer of the question, "How can Hon. Perry W. Howard seem to be an "Uncle Tom" and a Czar at one and the same time?" is that he is a "MAN." How can this be? Homer or some other Greek poet says of King Aeolus, the Greek god of the winds, that he knew when to hold in check the winds and when to let them loose. That is what every successful statesman does. That is what the Hon. Perry W. Howard does. He knows when to say: "This is a trivial matter; it does not involve the self-respect of my race or nation or my integrity as a man, and I can concede a point here"; and when to say: "This is a vital matter that involves the self-respect of my race or nation and my integrity as a man; I must hence make a stand here." Any colored man who can become a political leader in Southern States, as Judge Joseph Lee did in Florida. Wright Cuney in Texas. Henry Lincoln Johnson in Georgia, and James Hill in Mississippi, and as Perry W. Howard does in Mississippi at the present time, must be another King Aeolius—must possess a blending of common sense and manliness. Hence, we solve our Sphinx riddle by saying that the Hon. Perry W. Howard is neither an "Uncle Tom" nor a Czar, but a man of the King vogue type. I must heard Mr. Howard speak in public at the banquet in honor of Assistant District Attorney Thomas L. Jones last and black ones — or as strict we are lighter skins and dark-there "white" and "black" of Christianity? It would to conclude that white peo- ever real Christians. There A.'s, "white" Y.W.C.A.'s, etc., etc. all other requests, even sending along her "brown" Christian photograph, and returned the same to the pseudo-Christian school. And immediately from the so-called Christian dean there came the following revealing letter: "My dear Miss Hargrave: My letter reached me this morning and I regret to say that we do not accept colored students in our school I would suggest your writing to the National Bible Institute, 340 West 55th street, this city, as I think they may be able to accept you as a student. "Trusting that the way may open for you to take the training you desire, I am. "Very sincerely yours, (Signed) "CHARLOTTE A. PORTER." Now, in the name of Jeeus Christ, I wish to ask: Why don't the pure food laws compel these hypocrites and swindlers to label their canned religion for what it is by printing the important word "white" clearly and distinctly on their advertisements and their goods? Honest and innocent people should not be perpetually exposed to being double-crossed, embarrassed, sometimes burdened with expense, and finally politely and religiously insulted by these prayer-making "Christian" sharks. Perry W. Howard W. Howard, Republican Mississippi and assistant to general, were gratified to learn the charges made by Repreat, of Mississippi. July. I was first impressed by his manly bearing, his ease of manner and the note and ring of sincerity in his voice. I was next impressed by what he said and by what he did not say. He did not make any spread-eagle speech, did not attempt to play on the racial passions or prejudices of his hearers—but talked sense. In the course of his address he paid a tribute to Attorney Thomas Walker which, "in felicity of phrase," was worthy of Chaucey M. Depew. He talked not as a Negro speaking to a group of Negroes about Negro problems, but as a man and an American citizen talking to other men and other American citizens about the things that concern humanity in general and this country in particular. I saw then that Mr. Howard has a cool, level head and a good heart. He was something more than an intellectual machine. He was a man with a soul and a conscience. "What the colored citizens need at present is not representatives who will crawl on all fours like a dog, tamely accepting segregation, or bray like the ass in the lion's skin in Aesop's Fables, making boasts and threats that they cannot carry out; but representatives who will feel that they are made out of the same clay as the rest of mankind and are created in the divine image, possessing those characteristics and attributes which differentiate man from the beasts of the fields. Such a man is the Hon. Perry W. Howard. VIRGIN ISLANDS HEARINGS HELD WASHINGTON, D. C., May 10.—Hearings on the Virgin Islands Civil Government bill have been completed before the House Committee on Insular Affairs, Halvor Berg of the St. Croix Council described the absurdities of limited suffrage in the islands and charged that the Naval Governor was obstructing the passage of the bill. Similar hearings before the Senate Committee on Territories and Insular Possessions were concluded today. NEWSPAPER ASSN. TO MEET IN AUGUST The annual meeting of the Negro Press Association will be held in Philadelphia. Pa. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, August 5, 6 and 7. President B. J. Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent, and J. E. Mitchell of the St. Louis Arms have authorized the call. The association will be the guest of the Philadelphia members Know New York State New York State was first seen by a white man when in 1552 Giovanni del Verrazano, a Florentine in the service of Francis I of France, sailed into the mouth of the Hudson River. This was nearly a century earlier than the arrival of Henry Hudson in the Half Moon. In the waters of the Empire State are found 375 different kinds of fish. Of these the oyster and the bluefish are the most important. The boundaries of the state are 1,500 miles long, and it is only thirtieth among the states in area, though it leads in population and wealth. The 40,000 miles of high-power transmission lines in New York would girdle it 27 times, and the 20,000 miles of gas mains nearly 14 times. There would be an electric meter every 80 feet along each line and a gas meter every 40 feet along the circling mains. New York State leads in reforestation, and since 1900 has planted 98,311,000 young trees, nearly as many as have been planted in this time by the national government in all the Federal forests. The first school in the state was established in 1633 by the Dutch inhabitants of New Amsterdam. The common school system, approximately as in operation now, was not set up until 1812. The death rate in New York is steadily decreasing. The total number of deaths last year, 142,428, was only 200 more than the total for 1965, although the population of the state has increased by three million since then. Know New York State The Hudson, New York's greatest waterway, was originally known as the Mauritius, and later as the North River. In 1609 it was renamed in honor of the famous navigator who in that year sailed up the river in the good ship Half-Moon. New York State's industries range from furniture to turs and from printing to peaches. Of a total of 28 industries listed for classification, United States Government, 242 are represented in the Empire State. In 1925 the production of electrical energy in New York State for the first time passed the ten billion kilowatt-hour mark, and that of manufactured gas the one hundred billion cable feet mark. Both are records among the states, and respectively to represent, respectively one-fourth of the electricity and one-fourth of the manufactured gas produced in the entire country. The most valuable mineral products of the Empire State are her clay products. Bricks, porcelains and terra-cotta together make up 30 per cent of the value of all the state's mineral production. In addition to seventeen state charitable institutions, there are new work about 900 other, maintained by counties, municipalities or private agencies. All are regularly inspected by the State Board of Charities. Farm Population Decreases 1.5 Per Cent A continued decrease in farm population in the United States is reported by the Department of Agriculture, which estimates that there are 479,000 fewer people on farms January 1 this year than on January 1 a year ago. The Department estimates the farm population at 20,555,000 on January 1, 1926, compared with 31,134,000 on January 1, 1925, a decrease of 1.5 per cent. These figures include all men, women and children living on farms. The movement from farms to cities, towns and villages in 1935 is estimated at 203,060,000 and the movement to farms at 1,133,000, a net movement away from farms of 991,000 persons. Births on farms during 1935 are estimated at 710,000 and deaths at 288,000, leaving a natural increase of 422,000, which reduced the loss due to cityward movement to 479,000. The figures for 1924 showed a net loss in farm population of 182,000 persons. The gross movement from farms to cities in that year was 2,075,000 and the gross movement back to farms was 1,336,000, a net movement, not counting births and deaths, of 679,000 persons. Ira W. Jayne Judge of the Wayne County Circuit Court of Detroit, Mich., Hon. Ira W. Jayne has been a helpful and staunch friend of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. He has attended a number of its annual conference and forcible and incompromising addresses has contributed his legal knowledge and skill in the legal battles in which the Association is so often engaged. Judge Jayne is not only a member of the board of directors of the N. A. A. C. P., but is an alumnus of the Association friend upon whom the Association been able to call at all times, certain that his aid would promptly be forthcoming. By E. ELLIOTT RAWLINS, M. D. CUSTOM and the social status have changed considerably. The old-time modesty of girls and young women is now looked upon as provincial and unnecessary. "Freedom" is the slogan of the new woman, and just now this "freedom" seems to be leaning towards the side of license, as far as sex matters go. Personally, I feel that this tendency of unguarded liberty in things social is causing moral delinquency among a large number of young women. This new freedom in things social should be supplemented by a knowledge of sex hygiene. Every girl and young woman should have this knowledge imparted to her by a mother or some elderly guardian. Impressions should be given of the sacredness of the womanly functions and the injuries of disease that may accompany illicit indulgences. Impressions thus given will last long and will help the defensive power of their wills. being has passions which, though dormant, may be aroused, and thus inhibitory inductions are necessary to act as a sedative against such stimulants. Sex education and knowledge of the dangers and the physical and mental diseases which may be a result of such illicit indulgences is as necessary to a young woman as the education and knowledge in things pertaining to business or household care. Remember, your girl is developing. Physiologically, her sex organs will begin to function and, unless certain inhibitory influences are present in the girl's mind, the will-power may break down under sexual stimulations. These are the days of free and intimate social contacts between boys and girls, young women and men. The dance, the theatre, the social entertainments, the intoxicating jazz music, all produce a familiarity that can easily develop into attempted liberties, once the natural modesty and reserve of the young girls is encroached upon.

They are all men of delicate tastes. Leonard Merrick the novelist, with his "Quaint Companions"; David Garnett, writer of fantastic tales, with "The Sailor's Return"; Ronald Firbank, whose "Prancing Nigger" has been compared to "Alice in Wonderland," and Haldane MacFall, author of "The Wooings of Jezebel Pettyvier," whose other works concern themselves with such subjects as "French Pastelists" and "The History of Painting." It is a compliment to the African that such men have depicted him. In America he has been used largely in burlesque. His humor has been depicted as buffoonery. Du Bols Heyward, with a poet's sensitiveness, sets the beauty and tragedy in Porgy, and his surroundings, but no one in the United States has revealed the wit and charm of the Negro as has the Englishman. Full would see changes should he be put in command of a company of Zouaves in Jamaica today. But certainly he caught the wonderful imagery of the speech of the black men among whom he was thrown. Ronald Firbank and Haldane MacFall have written of the Negro of the British West Indies. "Prancing Nigger" is a dream of an enchanting island in the West Indies, where the country malden wears a garland of flowers for clothing, and where the city, like other cities, beckons, and clothes captivate, and at last soils. The title is unfortunate. It leads one to expect burlesque to book the delicate suggestive, a scene appears only to fade away. Its laughter is fraught with pain. One's only criticism is that the book is far too short. This fault can never be laid at the door of "The Wooings of Jezebel Pettyfer," which would be better if it were shorter. It falls off at the last, and one is a little provoked to find so many interesting characters all come to a bad end. To be sure Jezebel, whose name describes her perfectly, lives triumphant, but she is continually not much concerned with the fact that it is the setting and the wit that make Jezebel Pettyfer. The major part of the book is laid in Jamaica, and the characters are black men of a company of Zouaves, together with the clerk and schoolmaster and loose women who freeride the saloon of the Negro Knickleback. The saloon has been made by colored readers that this is not a fair picture of the West Indian Negro. Of course it is not. But what story that revolved about a soldier's life would be? It seems quite as decent a crowd as Kipling drew in "Soldiers Three," and immeasurably funnier. At times the white man often. Moreover the book is a reprint, having appeared first in 1897. Doubledless Mac All the World status have changed consid- modesty of girls and young upon as provincial and un- slogan of the new woman, seems to be leaning towards sex matters go. Personally, unguarded liberty in things frequency among a large num- being has passions which, though dormant, may be aroused, and thus inhibitory influences are necessary to act as a sedative against such stimulants. Sex education and knowledge of the dangers and the physical and mental diseases which may be a result of such illicit indulgences is as necessary to a young woman as the education and knowledge in things pertaining to business or household care. In no other way can self-protection be possible. There is a little book, entitled "Ten Sex Talks to Girls," published by J. B. Lippincott Co. of Philadelphia, Pa., which I can heartily recommend to mothers. This book will help them to impart this knowledge to their daughters in both a scientific and pleasing manner. Many a "social outcast" has been made so through the lack of the required knowledge in sex relationship. Your duty and your obligation, therefore, is to send your daughter out into the world with proper knowledge, so that she may go through the fire unscathed.

Pull would see changes should he be put in command of a company of Zouaves in Jamaica today, but certainly he caught the wonderful wit, the bright imagery of the speech of the black men among whom he was thrown. Jezebel Pettyfer in her delicate muslin draperies is captivating. She makes a "Lin Belle" tawdy. Her justification of her life is too long to quote, but she brings Scripture, all too convincingly, to her aid. "Appears to me da only women wid style dat was of much account in de Scriptures, der was almost always loose in de anections. Dar was dat Eve herself. She do not have paecious to匙 for her deed to do to settle down and create a Church of England clergyman to marry she, but she gets worth round, eaten apples. "and so on calling upon a galaxy of Biblical figures, woman and man There is culture in the book and much thievery. But the story is tawdry. One is concerned, not only with the comments upon the happenings. It ends with this philosophy: "For myself, said Wilberforce Gumma, the chemist, who had the reputation of being a thinker, "I don't hold much wud de idea that God made everything too good. I don't hold much other yo' is bound to lower de credit of de Creator." ZULU PRINCE STUDIES RACE PROBLEM HERE LEXINGTON, Ky. May 13.
