Curtis Segregation Case
STATING that "UPON THE PLEADINGS" it had no jurisdiction in the so-called Curtis case, the U. S. Supreme Court dismissed the appeal from decisions of the District of Columbia courts to the effect that white property-holders can, by valid contract, exclude Negroes from purchasing property in areas restricted to the use of the covenantors, their heirs and assignees.
The Court added that neither the Fifth, Fourteenth, nor the Fifteenth Amendments were involved in the case, and that the appellants had not been deprived of any of their constitutional guarantees, either before or during the trial of the cause. This blow is disheartening to the race, because precedents of our highest tribunal are reasonably permanent in the progression of American jurisprudence. Yet, there is cause for hope, we think, in the following brief analysis of law in the Curtis case, which we submit with deep regard for the poise, sincerity and untiring efforts of appellant's counsel in the case. There was never more than the merest veneer of constitutional law involved in the Curtis case. Rather, the problem turned upon that absorbing doctrine of the law of real property prescribing and describing the type and content of covenants, which, when created within land grants by devise or demise are such covenants as run with the land, and in so running become binding upon the covenants and their heirs and assignees.
The covenant in the Curtis case was clearly a binding one, and one as to which the covenantors were within their rights to make. The question then arose as to what right might arise in persons not parties to the covenant, which in the face of the law of real property would be entitled to paramount consideration. Such a right or at least the presumption of such a right arose whenever a prospective purchaser came forward in whose later one of the covenantors might desire to disavow the covenant with his fellow covenantors in order to sell to third parties, whose right to purchase was certainly, in the beginning, on a parity with the right of the covenantors to contract among themselves, and in so create a validable contract.
At this point, immaterial to Constitutional Law, but as a primary question to the scope of the law of Real Property, there immediately arises the query as to whether or not the covenant thus made was such a covenant as would run with the land to the restriction of the personal legal rights of covenants and third parties; and upon examination of the covenant in question there appears to be nothing which places it within the category of a covenant that "run with the land." with the characteristics of such covenants, and with the restrictive forces which such covenants are, by precedent and otherwise, intended to possess. Now do we find but the merest sufficiency of evidence which classi-
Charged with being a fugitive from justice, Ocey Wilson, 34, 244 West 130th street, was held in $2, 100 ball Friday in Washington Heights Court by Magistrate Gottlieb. According to Detective Mullahay of the West 152nd Street Station, who arrested Wilson, the Harlem man is wanted for felonious assault by the police of Washington, D. C. Chief of Detectives John Pratt of the capital asked that Wilson be held pending the arrival of extradition papers, Mullahay said.
N. J. WOMAN FALLS FROM "SKY-ROCKET"
Mrs. Pauline Wright of 300 Second street, Hackensack, N. J. was killed Sunday night when she fell from the "Sky-Rocket" at the Palisades Amusement Park. Seated in one of the cars with her husband, Benjamin, she had completed drops of 71, 65 and 50 feet and was only about eight feet from the starting point when, according to witnesses, she stood up and was thrown to the roadway. Dr. E. C. Holstren park physician, said the woman had been killed instantly.

National Legal Committee of N.A.A.C.P. to Determine Next Step in Washington Segregation Case
It was announced Friday by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that as soon as the full text of the United States Supreme Court's decision is received, the National Office having wired to Washington for it, the National League Committee would meet to determine the next step to be taken.
In its declaration, just rendered, in the case of Curtis and Corrigan vs. Buckley, et al., the Supreme Court, because of lack of jurisdiction, refused to pass on the case, which involved the right of white property owners to enforce an agreement barring Negroes from owning and occupying houses in certain residential sections.
From the excerpts printed in the press it is apparent that two questions are still left open by the Supreme Court's decision, namely, the question of public policy and the constitutional question. The exact nature of the action to be taken will depend upon a careful examination of the full text of the decision.
Louis Marshall, a member of the National Board of Directors of the N. A. A. C. P., who appeared before the Supreme Court when this case was argued, has expressed his belief that the issue can again be brought before the Supreme Court from a new angle.
The N. A. A. C. P. announced that it will continue the fight against this form of segregation resolutely until every legal recourse is exhausted.
In making this announcement the association expressed its sincere appreciation to Messrs. Moorfield Storey, Louis Marshall, Arthur B. Spingarn and Herbert K. Stockton, who gave their services as counsel, and to Messrs. James A. Cobb, Henry E. Davis and William H. Lewis, the attorneys in the case.
Palm Sunday Slayer Gets 20-Year Sentence
Sam Fulton of 16 Church street, Jamaica, Queens, pleaded guilty to a charge of murder, second degree, and was sentenced to from twenty years to life imprisonment in Sing Sing Wednesday by County Judge Frank F. Adel in Long Island City. Fulton killed his wife, Marie, with an axe in their home on last Palm Sunday. He kept the body in the house five weeks, praying over it. Three weeks ago he surrendered, saying he had been directed to do so by his wife, who came to him in a dream.
MESS BOY PROBABLY FATALLY SHOT BY COP

The victims are Edward Sanders, 19, a mess boy, and Ossel Roggemick, white, a deck hand. Sanders was shot by John McCormick, a patrolman of the Old Slip precinct, while fleeing after stabbing Roggemick.

The temple is being built by the 45 lodges of the State which make up the Prince Hall Grand Lodge. A parade requiring 45 minutes to pass at a given point preceded the ceremonies. Thousands of people lined the avenues to view the colorful sight. Members of the local Elks, I. U. O. M, and Knights Tempars and Odd Fellows accompanied the Masons from their present building, 155th street and Eighth avenue, to the new site, 14th street near Seventh avenue. Two hours before the procession reached the appointed place people had thronged the street in front of the construction. Traffic was pitifully jammed. Apartment buildings in the immediate neighborhood were crowded with spectators. Approximately 100 members of the Eastern Star, the ladies' auxiliary to the lodge, sold flowers for the temple all during the morning and afternoon
Grand Master Joseph Sullivan was the principal speaker. He glorified the Masonry of America. Mrs. Alice Campbell. Grand Matron, represented the women of the organization. Other speakers included the Rev. Charles Martin, Frederick G. Pillery. Grand Master of the I. O. O. F.; James S. Watson, Assistant Corporation Counsel, and the Rev. George S. Stark. Dr. Cornwell Banton, Delaware, William W. Allen, Maryland. Other prominent citizens and members of the lodge took part in the ceremonies. On the stand of honor were the officials and members of the Board of Directors, Edward T. Sherwood, Grand Deputy, and Arthur A. Shomburg, Grand Secretary, were among the ranking officers.
The line of march was from 155th street and Seventh avenue to Bradhurst avenue and 148th street to Seventh avenue and 129th street to Lenox avenue and then to 144th street.
The Board of Directors consists of Mrs. Alice Campbell, George W. Lockett, Jerome P. Ottley. Arthur Simmons, Oscar Cassell, Harry J. De Passo, Samuel J. Davis, Andrew J. Wade and Winifred P. Carr.
The Berlard Knopp and H. J. De Passo Company are the builders. Vernon W. Tandy is architect.

A. R. button and medal on his cont appeared and asked the marshal if he could participate. He was Spence Gibbs, 80 years old, of West Chester, Pa., who is employed at Mountain Lakes. A seat in the second car was assigned to him and he was welcomed, by the few surviving members of John Hill Post No. 59, of the G. A. R.
TAMPER WITH POLICE AUTO NEAR STATION
Charged with attempting to steal a policeman's automobile from in front of the West 135th Street Station, Harry Marsh, 239 West 135th street, and his brother, Clifford, 82 49th street, Corona, were discharged in Washington Heights Court Saturday.
Both testified they were drunk and that they did not know what they were doing. Policeman News, some of the West 135th Street Station, who saw the men tampering with his automobiles, said they resisted arrest and assaulted him in front of the lieutenant's desk in the police station.
Harry Marsh appeared with a cut under his right eye, and as both had spent the night in jail Magistrate Gottlieb decided they had been sufficiently punished for their intoxication.
THE NEW YORK
KEEPER NICHOLS GETS 2-YR. PRISON SENTENCE
Pleads. Guilty to Charge of Selling Narcotics in Tombs, Under Extenuating Circumstances Mercy Plea Denied
"Please don't send me away, Your Honor. Give me another chance," cried Claude Nichols, former jail keeper in the Tombs Prison, when he was sentenced to two years in the Federal Prison at Atlanta, Ga., by Judge Henry Goddard in the United States District Court Tuesday at noon. Nichols, through his counselor, Attorney Moses Palakoff, pleaded guilty on two counts which violated the Narcotic Act. Assistant United States District Attorney Isaac Guttman was in charge of the prosecution.
The Federal agents who caused Nichols' arrest and furnished evidence for his indictment were present in the court.
Following the plea of Attorney Palakoff for his client, Nichols told his story. He explained how the physician in charge of the drugs had ordered him to issue the pills and powders.
Extra portions of the drugs he would keep in his locker, the former jail keeper nervously testified. He admitted that he accepted tips from the Government agents. The agents informed the court that it was a fact that no marked money was found on the prisoner.
Nichols' confession was seemingly doubted by the court. Not the more fact of having accepted a tip, but the shielding of a dope ring is believed to be the reasons for his conviction.
In his plea for another chance Nichols pointed to his wife who had been in court all during the morning. She wore a light tan coat suit with a black mourning hat. Tall, slender, slightly drooped shouldered, Mrs. Nichols stood near the bar as her husband incoherently begged for mercy.
About 11.45 a. m. Nichols, a short stocky built fellow, was brought in by a marshal. He was cheerful, smiling and occasionally talked to those who stood near him. He searched the room with his eyes until they focussed on his wife, and then he appeared to be broadcasting the feeling of his soul to her.
Nichols' plea was denied. Judge Goddard expressed his sympathy for the unfortunate man, but insisted the crime was too serious to go unpunished. The man he realized had a wife and mother who have no one to support them with Nichols in jail. The entire family effects of the Nichols' were sold to pay his lawyer, the prisoner testified.
After the decision was rendered Nichols ferked away from his at-
Magistrate Scores Bootleg Liquor
Hold Man Without Bail on Charge of Demanding Drink With Gun
Vile, filthy, poisonous liquor and its effect upon the moral of mankind was briefly discussed by Magistrate Gottlieb, sitting in the Washington Height Court Monday, George Brown, 68, 2137 Seventh Avenue, on two serious charges. Dominick Princeport, white, counterman in a soft drink stand at 2135 Seventh avenue, appeared as complainant against the prisoner. He declared that Brown came into his store and demanded a drink of whiskey. On being refused, the soft drink keeper testified, Brown drew a revolver and then assaulted him.
"If you don't give me a drink, I'll kill you," Princeport swore that Brown threatened. When the liquor was not forthcoming, the soft drink parlor was transformed into a battle royal. Brown getting the better of the fracus.
In explaining his responsibility to the community, Magistrate Gottlieb declared that no respectable man would carry a weapon without a permit unless he could give some good reason. He then scored the liquors that are bootlegged and condemned them as being vile, filthy and poisonous.
Walving the examination, Brown was held without ball for Grand Jury. A plea was made by the defendant's counsel for bail, but it was denied.
Three Divorce Suits Started
As a result of raids conducted by the Boulin's National Detective Agency, three suits have been started in the Supreme Court for absolute divorce and one for alimony and counsel fees.
Mr. James S. Holt, 2400 Seventh avenue, a waiter in Johnny Jackson's restaurant, has started a suit for absolute divorce through his attorney, Richard E. Carey, against his wife, Eva.
Mrs. Harriet Giles of 249 West 121st street is suing her husband, David, for absolute divorce, asking alimony and counsel fees.
Mr. Emory C. Redding of 236 West 64th street is suing his wife, Ruth, for divorce.
Consolidated Gas Collector Robbed.
Henry D. Dehsel, white, 114 E. 282nd street, a collector for the Consolidated Gas Co., was making collections in the tenement house at 2181 Fifth avenue, near 134th street, Friday afternoon when he was attacked by two men in the hallway and robbed of $41.71.
torney and advancing closer to the Judge's bench with outstretched arms; he again asked for mercy. The gravel of justice was sounded and two marshals pulled him away. As he struggled past his wife he was heard to say: "This is ridiculous. They tell me to play city and that they would go easy with you (at the pause). Now they are railroading me." Mrs. Nichols walked straight to the corridor where she bowed her head and wept. "I'll such a good man. Why did they treat him like that? They're making a goat out of him," she cried.
Jury Verdict Favors Tenants in Suit
A verdict in favor of tenants in the apartment building at 213-14 West 143rd street was returned by a jury sitting in Judge Jacob Panken's part of the Seventh District Municipal Court last week. The Edro Holding Corporation, of which Pope B. Billups is said to be secretary, sued to raise the rents of the tenants.
The sixteen defendants who and the suit were represented by Counselor Charles Marks. Vernal J. Williams, 206 Broadway, represented the corporation. The only witness for the holding concern was Mr. Billups.
The jury was out only fifteen minutes and returned a verdict in favor of the tenants.
NATIONAL TRAINING SCHOOL DAMAGED BY FLAMES
Panic Ensued, but Teachers Conducted Students to Safety Blaze Discovered by Visitor.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 1. — Fire caused by sparks from the kitchen chimney Wednesday caused damage of approximately $6,000 to the main building of the National Training School for Women and Girls at Fiftieth and Grant streets, Northeast.
Twenty-six girls were attending classes in the building when the fire was discovered by a visitor, Grace Spalding, of Danielson. Conn., a delegate to the Northern Baptist convention. A panic almost ensued, but teachers managed to get their charges to safety without injury. The third floor, used as a dormitory, and the roof virtually were destroyed. The second floor, also a dormitory, was badly damaged. Water and smoke completed the damage.
The school, a private institution, is headed by Miss Nannle H. Burroughs. The building which was burned was the main building of the group and contained the office, chapel and reception room.
A nearby building was threatened by the flames which leaped twenty feet in the air, but was saved by firemen despite the difficulty of getting water to the school, which is built on a hill.

Official Says He Has Never Deposited Funds of Order in Non-Interest-Paying Banks Five Negro Financial Institutions Used
Attributing to Harry H. Pace, president of the Northeastern Life Insurance Company of Newark, N. J., statements contained in an article on the forthcoming Elks' Convention at Cleveland, Ohio, James T. Carter, grand secretary of the Order, says that Mr. Pace misstated the facts. The article was published May 19 in The Amsterdam News and in varying forms in several newspapers throughout the country. Mr. Carter directs particular attention to the following passage:
"The Order of Elks has around $100,000 in cash, $50,000 of which is on deposit in two white banks in Richmond, Va. One of these banks pays no interest whatever on a $17,000 deposit they have had for nearly ten years, while another pays two per cent on $34,000 that has been with them for a long time."
Mr. Carter's statement then continues as follows:
Fish Memorial Bill Reported
Senate Committee Approves Proposal to Honor Negro Soldiers
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 1.—Representative Hamilton Fish's proposal for erecting a monument in France to the Negro soldiers of the Ninety-third Division was reported favorably Friday, May 28, by a 6 to 5 vote by the Senate Military Affairs Committee. The bill has already passed the House of Representatives and its supporters will now attempt to get it through the Senate before the close of the session.
The measure has been consistently opposed by Senator Reed of Pennsylvania. Chairman of the Battle Monuments Commission. The favorable report of the bill by the Senate Committee follows soon upon the hearing held a week ago when Congressman Fish, Doctor Emmett J. Scott, of Howard University, and Major West A. Hamilton, of the American Legion, appeared before the committee in behalf of the measure.
Southern members of the Senate Military Affairs Committee for some unknown reason supported the bill almost unanimously. Two weeks now remain of the present Congressional session.
KENTUCKY ELECTRIC
CHAIR KEPT BUSY
EDDYVILLE, Ky., May 28. Within less than an hour three men, two of whom were white, were electrocuted in the State Penitentiary here early today, making the third time since the electric chair was installed that a triple execution has occurred. John Baker, the colored man, had been convicted of killing his wife.
"As grand treasurer of the Elks, I have never put a dollar of their funds in a single bank which did not pay interest, the lowest rate paid by any of them being 3 per cent, and I challenge him to disprove this statement.
"Will you give the statement he makes that the Order has had a deposit of $17,000 for nearly ten years without interest, I wish to emphatically deny this statement. When I was elected grand treasurer, in 1913, only $1,$23.50 was turned over to me.
"At the end of the session of 1914 (than years ago) the total worth of the grand lodge was $12,216.71. Not until 1922 (less than four years ago) has the Grand Lodge had as much as $17,000.00 in any one bank. Now I ask, in view of these facts, was it possible to have had $17,000 on deposit for 10 years in any bank without interest? Another evidence of Paul's reckless disregard for the truth.
"Harry Pearce has assumed to be a kind of historian of the Order, and it was only necessary for him to refer to the minutes of each session of the Grand Lodge since I have been Grand Treasurer for a verification of this statement and see that, accompanying each of my papers, I am showing every bank in which the funds have been deposited and the amount of interest paid by each."
"ANOTHER GLARING MISREP RESENTATION."
I face further says:
"I have sought for many years to have this money properly invested or to be distributed for deposit among the worthy banking institutions operated by our own people. There are only two obstacles in the way."
"One of these is the Grand Secretary and the other is the Grand Treasurer, both of whom have blocked every effort to put any of this money in colored banks."
"Ever since I have been Grand Treasurer, I have never selected a permanent depository of the funds without submitting the name of the bank or trust company and

any information I had as to its condition first to the Grand Exalted Ruler and the Grand Secretary for their approval. This is also a matter of record both in the minutes of the Grand Lodge and in the correspondence between these officers and myself.
For more than three years after I were decolored, every dollar of the Order's funds was deposited in two Negro banks. When the funds began to grow so rapidly, and the information having come to me that kicks were being made about all the money being in Negro banks, it was decided, after the usual exchange of views among the above-named officers, to open an account in a strong white trust company.
"In the meantime, three colored banks were also added as depositories. No other white bank was added as a depository until February 1922 when after ten years of our colored depositories had failed. The funds are now deposited in three white and five colored banks.
"The statement just made by me with reference to banks is of its self a sufficient refutation of this additional misrepresentation of Harry Pace. I will add, however, that, without recognizing the right he takes unto himself the idea that the Grand Lodge should either be invested or deposited, as is indicated by the sentence:
"I have sought for many years to have this money properly invested."
"I would like to call his attention to the plain provision of our law, which permits no investment of its funds by the Grand Treasurer, and which does not order him plainly requires (Page 10 of Constitution and By-Laws) that:
"The Grand Treasurer * * * shall deposit the same (all funds) in the bank to the credit of the Grand Lodge."
"It is true that Pace wrote me on the subject of adopting the Wage Earners Bank of Savannah as a depository, but the credit for bringing this bank to my attention to Dr. Clayboro, and not to Harry Pace, although the latter claims it.
"At the time the Wage Earners Banks was requesting a deposit I was flooded with applications from numerous colored banks all over the country for deposits; and while it was my personal inclination to accede to their requests, I felt that it was my duty to the order to throw every reasonable saterain to their its funds for their protection.
"It must be borne in mind, too, that these applications followed the failures of several banks in which the Order had lost funds, which, however, were made good by my personal check at Newark. I therefore, wrote to the Grand Exalted Ruler and the Grand Secretary of theleges, such selections as were made, including the Wage Earners Savings Bank, were the result of unanimous decision of these officers.
"Pace, who is now so much interested in depositing the Grand Lodge's funds in Negro banks, used the failures of two Negro banks in which the Order had funds as a basis of his opposition to my rejection of Order Convention, but before the Newark Convention, because he claimed I was not using good judgment in the selection of banks.
COMPARISON OF RECORDS.
"I am perfectly willing that my record for racial endeavor and faith against Pace's with no fear as to the result. I am sure it will be found that in my trail there will not be a fitting about from post to post, leaving dead carcasses of a number of corporations and enterprises behind. I have had the privilege of knowing the number of responsible positions in my lifetime, and hold a few now, one of which is the presidency of a corporation which employs over 500 Negro men and women and carries in Negro banks deposits of more than 400,000 dollars in Pace where are the funds of the Northeastern Life Insurance Company deposited? I can say, however, I have never sought a single one of these offices, not even the Grand Treasurership of the Elks, always feeling the office should be closed. Should I close it upon a different course, I hope I will never try to gain an office by adopting such methods as Pace

Then, explains Mrs. Bunch, she happened to read about Cardui, the woman's tonic, and decided to give it a thorough trial, the results of which she describes below:

"Having demonstrated his ability to misstate facts by the article under consideration, I think this is a very poor recommendation of him for the office which he seeks, whose duties will require the greatest identity in reporting from actual convention the actual happenings.

Wheeling Has 3 Vacant Pulpits
Ministers Resigned for Various Reasons in Past Few Months
(Preston News Service.)
WHEELING, W. Va., June 1.—Churchmen in this city are terribly perturbed over the notoriously caused by the resignation of the pastors of all the churches here within the past few months.
The first change was at the Simpson M. E. Church, from which Rev. C. E. Hodges was transferred, at his own request. He is now pastor of a very prominent church in Washington, D. C.
Next came the ultimatum and then the resignation of Rev. S. A. Davenport, after friction and disagreements with officers of Macedonia Baptist Church, the largest religious organization among Negroes in Wheeling.
The last, and possibly the most sensational, change came when Rev. R. A. Adams, one of the most experienced and best qualified ministers the A. M. E. church in Wheeling ever had, suddenly informed officers and members that he had decided to terminate his services as pastor of the Wayman A. M. E. Church.

files any of the issues involved in the precepts of the Constitution and its guaranties.
This was clearly the view of the Nation's highest judiciary when it said, "Under the Pleadings" this Court has no jurisdiction; and, alas, the pleadings dealt with constitutional issues rather than the simple, common law elements of the ownership and alienation of fee simple estates, and covenants attached thereto.
Psychology Study AMERICA might well read the "Study in Psychology of the American Negro," by Miss Nora M. Porter, a noted white writer, whose enlightening contribution is appearing exclusively in the California Voice, Oakland, Cal. Says Miss Porter: "Held back so long by unfavorable climate, the white man was the last to develop culture. But as soon as he began to be cultured, being enterprising and ambitious, he built upon the foundation laid by the dark races, and has moved forward so rapidly that he feels justified in calling himself a superior race, and we must do him justice to say that in most cases he really does not know that he is mistaken."
Miss Porter continues by saying that 'blood transfusion can be practiced from one to the other, and in transplanting skin, the white skin will grow white on a black man and black skin will preserve its color when grafted onto a white man.' In all, Miss Porter bravely advises her race that it is wrong, all wrong, in putting such a heavy price upon man's exterior as done by Nature.
When Moses married the daughter of Jethro, who was a black woman, and when Simon the Cyrenian helped the Saviour carry the cross on the way to Calvary, no one thought that years hence, after civilization died and was born again, such internal strife, based upon skin complex, would push its hydron head into the New World; but, as Miss Porter says: "The white man's hostility as well as his ignorance has kept the Negro in subjection and doubt."

to make up the committee, but only six were present. Father Shelton Hale Bishop, who selected the committee with the consent of the principal, acted as chairman. Others of the committee who attended included the Rev. Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church; William M. Kelley, editor of The Amsterdam News; Attorney Myles A. Palge, Mrs. C. B. Penn, Y. W. G. A. Secretary; Ira de Reid, Industrial Secretary of the local Urban League; and the Rev. John W. Robinson, pastor of the St. Mark's M. E. Church. Mr. Palge, who complained that he discovered that Miss Korman had an unfavorable attitude toward Negroes when she refused him permission to speak before the student body during the "Go-to-High School—Go-to-College" campaign sponsored by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, was the first to speak.
He told the committee how the principal greatest him and gave her reasons for not allowing him the right to speak.
In defence of her refusal, Miss Korman stated that had she known Mr. Palge represented the class of people which he did, she would not have refused him.
Had she been principal of a school where Italian children made up a large percentage of the student body the "Go-to-High School—Go-to-College" campaign would have been welcomed, she said she told Mr. Palge when he called. Italian children are taken out of school by their parents before they have had sufficient learning in order to make money. In this community, she said, mothers sacrifice everything that they have to keep their children in school.
"While their mothers are sacrificing everything for them, many of these girls are loafing and throwing away their time in school." Therefore, she felt, it was unfair to encourage mothers to keep on sending this kind of girl to school. The Rev. Imes interrupted the principal with a question as to whether or not the per cent of lazy girls in P. S. 136 was above the average of those in other schools. She said it was not higher. To a question asked by one member of the committee as to the per cent of Negro children in the school she said that no records were kept classifying students according to race.
Miss Kornman gave, however, the distribution of the students in the various courses. The student enrollment is 1,774. Eight per cent of this number are graduating this June. Six per cent of them are in the rapid advancement class. Six per cent are in commercial class. Thirty-eight per cent of the students are in the industrial classes and six per cent are in the adjustment class. The sentiment of the conference committee was that Miss Kornman did not have comprehensive knowledge of the colored people of Harlem.
the conference adjourned to meet again tomorrow.

ATLANTIC CITY, May 31. About two weeks ago Herman Schwarts, a white man of 2419 Atlantic avenue, it is charged, committed rape upon his maid, Mrs. Annie M. Roberts. The affair happened during the absence of Mrs. Schwarts, the man's wife, who happened to be spending the day in Philadelphia, it is said. Finding that he could not subdue Mrs. Roberts alone, Schwarts is said to have called a traveling salesman to his assistance. The woman was in such a bad condition her people were forced to rush her to the local hospital for treatment. The offender is out on $3,000 ball. No effort has been made to apprehend the traveling salesman.
Judge Nott in General Sessions Wednesday imposed a sentence of from eight to sixteen years in Sing Sing on Richard Evans, 21 years old, of 306 West 144th street, who pleaded guilty to a first degree robbery charge.

PHILADEDPHIA, May 22—Hilldale checked the rush of Oscar Charleston and his Harrisburg Giants when the teams clashed for the second time of the current season. Phil Cockrell's moist ball heaving was too much for the Capital City clan and the visitors were forced to take the smudgy end of a 9 to 2 count.
Ping Gardner essayed to oppose Cockrell on the peek but the Hilldale missile maulers clustered six lusty blows for as many runs in the third frame. When the visitors took the field in the fourth inning, Gardner had been totally erased from the scene and Geesech Corbett, the soft ball pitcher, graced the hill.
The locals kept up their socking tactics and in the fourth inning chased another brace of counters across the glad gum. And Frank Warfield made a personally conducted affair of the ninth and finally amassed by the Darby Dalies when he hit one of Corbett's shoots on the nose; the ball sailed over Charleston's knob, he made a frantic but futtle attempt to gather in the flying sphere and Warfield completed the circuit eve the pellet was returned to the diamond.
Charleston also furnished the fans with a thrill, when his home run clout over the center field fence in the eighth inning scored Dixon ahead and prevented Colonel Strouther's clan from absorbing a coat of whitewash.
Gardner managed to pass the first two frames unscathed, then things began to happen and when the smoke of the inning had cleared away the Daisies had collected a half dozen runs and sewed up the ball game. Cockrell started the hectic session with a single over second. Briggs was hit by a pitched ball. With the infield in Warfield outqueued his opponents and singled sharply off Garner's glove, filling the sacks. Carr raked a line single to right and Cockrell and Briggs registered. Mackey doubled to right and Warfield and Carr came home. Clint. Thomas singled, scoring Mackey. Thomas stole second and third and scored on the squeeze play when Stevens bunted safely. The defeat dropped Harburg in to a tie with Baltimore for first place and enabled Hilldale to move up above the Cubans into third position.
A crowd of 6,000 fans witnessed the fray. A light rain fall intermittently during the final innings of play.

Owing to the lack of playground space the games must be played in the street. The ball is a rubber ball, the bat a broom handle and the manhole a rule starts from the "manhole" lid or pods as home plate. Seven to nine players are used in the game and each team is permitted to carry 12. The schedule starting on May 24 will run until June 30. The captain and manager of the playing teams are as follows:

LIONS TO MEET
TUSKEGEE TEAM
It has been definitely determined that Lincoln and Tuskegee will play a great inter-sectional game this fall. This will probably be the greatest game of this kind during the season. Tuskegee for many years has been the dominant football factor in the South, and Lincoln has kept the same position in the North. The game will be played on October 29 and this date is far enough advanced in the football season to determine the relative merits of the two aggregations. The authorities have been fortunate in securing as the place for the contest the magnificent Athletic Stadium at the Sequik-Centennial grounds. It is certain that this game will attract, not only the followers of Howard, Lincoln but also the football fans from the eastern seaboard, as well as a large number of persons who will be attending the Philadelphia Exposition.
Lincoln's team will be coached again. His year by Willy "Lissy" Young, who has just signed a new three year contract. Young will be assisted by Dr. "Ernie" Martin of Boston, who has rendered such valuable assistance at Lincoln for the past two years. Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, continues in his capacity as Graduate Manager.
HARVARD STAR HELPING LLOYD
Earl Brown, star pitcher with the Harvard University varsity nines of 1923-24 seasons, is again in the uniform of the Lincoln Giants. Shortly after his graduation from Harvard in 1924, Brown signed up with the Lincoln but did not remain the season out. Manager Lloyd has induced Brown to return to the game to distract him in playing several young pitches whom he believes will develop into the sensation of the League this season. He has also induced Charlie Bradford, veteran athlete and coach, to again don the Lincoln Giant uniform to help his pitching staff out.
Chambers, who defeated Hildale Saturday, Gilmore and Dudley are the pitchers who are being developed by Lloyd and who are causing considerable concern among the other teams of the League.

Under the auspices of the Colored Amateur Billiard Players Club in 1915, there was played what was known as the Newspaper Men's Pocket Billiard Match for which the Club provided a trophy. At that time Jack Trotter represented the New York News and J. E. Elmendorf, the New York Age. It was an interesting contest and created quite a bit of interest from a social standpoint among newspaper men. Mr. Elmendorf won the match, and it is his desire that this feature be revived among the Scribes. He is donating the original trophy to the Lafayette Billiard Emporium to be contested for and the winner's name is to be engraved on it along with the year. The one getting his name on it three times will be the permanent possessor of the trophy.
To this end the management of the Latafyette Billiard Emporium invited entries from the New York Age. The Amsterdam News, the Inter-State Tattler, and the New York News. Mr. Alvin Moses is to represent the New York News and Louis Garcia the Amsterdam News. The games are to be played the evenings of June 1617 and are to be 100 points each.

LINCOLN HITS FEATURE AGAIN
LINCOLN HITS FEATURE AGAIN
The Lincoln Giants' prospects of taking the lead in the Eastern Colored League's pennant race brightened considerably the past weekend. To the surprise of the Philadelphia fans, they made Hilldale look foolish on Saturday and won a 13-6 victory.
On Sunday the Lincolnns continued their heavy batting and won both games of the usual double header. In the first game the New Brunswick nine was completely outclassed, losing by a score of 18-9. And in the other contest the Pottstown, Pa. team was defeated by a score of 12-4.
The second game was featured by the batting of Orville Singer, who hit a home run, made two 2 baggers and a single in five times at bat. Manager Lloyd also hit a homer in this game.

Harrisburg Stages Sensational Rally to Win
Harrisburg Stages Sensational Rally to Win
PHILADELPHIA, May 29. — Colonel Strothers' Harrisburg Giants made history for the Darby ball yard when they turned an apparent overwhelming defeat into victory by a sensational ninth inning rally that netted the visitors six runs and the game, heating out Ed. Bolden's clan S to 7.
All of the tallies came after two men had been retired in the final frame and with Hilldale holding a four run lead in the ninth and with two men out, many of the fans who had left the park and boarded waiting trolley cars clambered out again and returned to their stands while Oscar Charleston and his cohorts came from behind and scored a remarkable victory.
Henry Gilleseus was the hero of the occasion; he replaced Pritchett.

NEW YORK PLAYERS WIN FROM NEW JERSEY IN TENNIS MATCHES
NEW YORK PLAYERS WIN FROM NEW JERSEY IN TENNIS MATCHES
Despite the rain earlier in the day the third annual interstate tennis matches between the New York Tennis Association and the New Jersey Tennis Association were completed on the Plainfield Tennis Club courts on Decoration Day. New York won five matches, New Jersey three, and one was called on account of darkness, with the score even.
Many of the topnotchers of both associations were absent, including Gomes and Ponder of New York, the Worde brothers, Hill, Butler, Granger and Cobb of New Jersey. This gave an opportunity for a number of second string men to compete.
Two matches of ladies' singles were played and each association captured one. The biggest upset of recent years was the decisive defeat in straight sets administered to Mrs. Elise Colsei, the New York lady champion, by Miss Alvise Marcellus, the New Jersey title-holder. Miss Marcellus gained the lead early in the first set and held it by her powerful service and vicious drives to the back lines. Despite the wet courts and balls, Miss Marcellus handled Mrs. Conick's tricky chop shots and at no stage of the match was she in real danger. Mrs. Conick fought hard to overcome the lead and managed to bring the score to 3-4 in the first set, but her opponent put more speed on her drives and ran out the set at 6-4.
In the second set Miss Marcellus gained a lead of 5-2 when Mrs. Conick staged a desperate rally and came within a game of bringing the score to deuce, but at 5-4 Miss Marcellus won the deciding match game on her service. The triumph of Miss Marcellus was a vindication of those tennis fans who contended that she was unjustly treated by the rating company. The TW who passed over her noteworthy record in the 1925 season and rated such players as Mrs. Saames of Chicago and Miss Enrico Brown of North Carolina.
Mrs. Susie Madison of New York gave a wonderful exhibition of grit when she came from the rear to defeat the hard-hitting Mrs. Thornhill of New Jersey in a gruelling three-set match. Mrs. Thornhill, who is one of the hardest drivers among the ladies, took the first back strong and back strong and with the score at 2-2 in the second set started a rally that netted her four straight games and the second set 6-2.
The third set was a classic. Mrs. Thornhill, driving like Helen Willis, took five games in a row and seemed headed for a love set. On the sixth game Mrs. Madison used a chop to deadly effect and won the game. Mrs. Thornhill came within one point of the match in the next game when she scored placement drives bringing the score to 40—15. Mrs. Madison again used the chop stroke to deduce the game and finally won. She also took the next game easily, but was almost defeated with the score at 5—3 when the Jersey star made the game 40—15 on service. Two successive outs deuced the game and Mrs. Madison finally scored placements for a win. She took the next game from 40—30 and deuced the set. Again employing the chop she had her opponent almost out from fatigue and took the next two games for the match.
Erye Saitch, the New York champion, had a hard battle with McWilson, the young New Jersey track, in the first set which he won at 6-4. In the second set Saitch played cross court shots and had McWilson all at sea, winning only one game in the set. George Smith of New York toyed with Brice of New Jersey for an easy win at 6-3, 6-9. Smith drove over goering and did it the gallery with sensational smashes at the net. This was Brice's premier appearance in fast company, but he showed plenty of grit.
Willis of New Jersey fought hard against Fred Johnson of New York in their singles match and forced the New York veteran to a deuce set. Johnson's superior accuracy and court generalship brought him out ahead of the hard-hitting Plainfield player. In the second set Willis was wild and throw away many points on outs. Johnson used a short chop which was very effective on the heavy courts and frequently caught Willis out of position or off balance. Johnson took the second set at 6-2.

veteran Jersey chop stroke artist, after a three-set match. McDowoll tired his appointment in the second set and had little trouble taking the third and deciding frame. Terry of New Jersey got revenge on Spooner of New York in two hard deuce sets, in which the issue was in doubt up to the last stroke. These two old-timers always have their annual battle, which affords much sport for the gallery. This victory puts Terry a match ahead.
Arthur E. Francis of the Amsterdam staff picked a tartar in Victor Craig, a 18-year-old junior, and was defeated in straight sets. Craig is captain of the Plainfield High School tennis team and amply demonstrated Mr. Francis' theory of training them young.
Wills and Miss Marcellus won the first set of a mixed doubles match from "Chick" Jones and Miss Alston of New York. The New Yorkers turned the tables in the second set and, because of the growing darkness, the match was called at set all.
Summary: E. Saltchief defeated McWilson, 6-4; 6-1; Geo. Smith defeated Brice, 6-3, 6-0; F. Johnson defeated Willis, 7-5, 6-2; McDowell defeated Burrell, 6-1, 6-7; 6-4; Mrs. Madison defeated Mrs. Thornhill, 2-6; 6-2, 7-5.
Terry, New Jersey, defeated Spooner, New York, 8-6, 8-6; Craig, New Jersey, defeated Francis, New York, 6-3, 7-5; Miss Marcellus, New Jersey, defeated Mrs. Conick, New York, 6-4, 6-4. Willis and Miss Marcellus vs. Jones and Miss Alston, 6-4, 2-6.
THE BUSHWICKS' STREAK BROKEN
Bushwicks' winning streak of ten straight games was broken on Sunday at Dexter Park, when the Hildalales took the measure of the Kandy Kids in two games, winning the first game by 8 to 6 and annexing the nightcap by an 11 to 9 score.
"Red" Ryan managed to have the best of Herble Steen in the first game, but both pitchers were hit hard. The Kandy Kids had no chance whatever in the second game before the sterling pitching of Campbell, who held the Bushwicks to four scattered hits and gave them their first coat of white-wash.

Another Unknown Beaten in Harlem
Whence he came none knows, nor do they care whither he goes. At least that is what the colored fans are saying about Joseph, the fighter seen against Monte Munn at the Commonwealth Sport Club last Saturday night in the "feature" of the "new talent" card. Where they are digging up the truth, he is knocked out by Munn nobody seems to know, but everybody seems to care. We would all like to know where these colored plastic scarfies keep themselves when they are not being thrown into the Commonwealth ring burnt offerings to aspiring white hopes.
Phew! Gee whizl Jesse, times certainly have changed since you went to Madison Square Garden to act as Mr. Rickard's matchmaker. Need thee every time in Haven. Need thee don't return soon you'll find yourself minus the colored following which you built up for the little club on the wrong end of 135th street.
COOKE GIVES TRAINER MEDAL
A special despatch to the New York World coming in on Sunday brings an interesting tale which tells of the action of Cecil Cooke of Syracuse University which will bring added glory to the colored athletic star. Says the World: "A story came out of the Harvard Locker Building at Cambridge on Saturday after the I. C. 4-A golden jubilee track and field meet which bears repeating.
"Cecil Cooke, the big Negro runner of Syracuse, who captured the quarter mile title from as fine a field of athletes as ever clashed in that event, is one of the figures in the story. Cooke had just left the rubbing table when the Syracuse manager brought him the gold modal emblematic or his victory. The Negro gazed at it with pride, handed it around so that less fortunate athletes might look on it, and was about to place it in the pocket next to his heart when he stopped and pondered for a moment.
"Then he went back to the rubbing room and quietly sought out Frank Otto, the Syracuse rubber. "Mr. Otto, he said, 'you're a white man, and, except for me, your work is with boys of your color. But ever since you've been in Syracuse you've given me just the same treatment and just the same attention as you have given the white boys on the team. I want to tell you I appreciate that. it's made things mighty nice for me and I want to show you my appreciation. "This medal is just about the best thing I ever won. I want you to take it as a gift of thanks for your care of me.' "Before Otto could answer the ebon-hued star, Cooke turned away and was gone. There was a lump in the throat and a sentimental tear in the eye of each of those who witnessed Cooke's act and overheard his remarks."
Big Benefit for Walker's Mother
Big Benefit for Walker's Mother
Headed by Bill (Bojangles) Robinson, Flourmey Miller and other well known performers, a big benefit for the mother of the late George Walker is being planned. Word being to New York last week brought the information that the mother of the famous George who reached his greatest heights as a member of the team of Williams and Walker is today in destitute circumstances.
When alive and well, George Walker took care of his mother. For a long time after he was struck en with the illness which eventually resulted in his death, she enjoyed the fruits of his labor in her behalf, but changing circumstances brought misfortune and today the mother of one of America's greatest comedians is seeking help in her old age.
We believe that every performer of color will rally to the call. There are also scores of white performers who will be found to the fore when arrangements are complete for the benefit, which should be one of the biggest and best ever staged here.
Miss Preer Recuperating
Evelyn Preer Thompson, who has been very ill for the past few months, is again on her feet and on the road to a rapid recovery. Miss Preer has been with "Lulu Bello" ever since the opening of that play in Philadelphia and at Belasco Theatre here. Her many friends were glad to give her a warm welcome to "The Aveno" when she made her belated return this week.

JOHNSON K.O.'D BY BOB LAWSON
Whatever claim Jack Johnson might have had to recognition in the roped arena passed on last Sunday in Juarez, Mexico, when he was forced to bow to a technical knockout at the hands of Bob Lawson, in the seventh round of a bout scheduled for twelve rounds. Lawson, a stable mate of Tiger Flowers, pounded the former heavyweight champion so lustily Jack was knocked to the floor in the seventh and unable to continue when the call came to "carry on" in the eighth round. While Lawson has found the going rather hard with the new comers of his weight, he is battling one hundred per when it comes to the old timers. He flashed a marvelous right on the chin of Kid Norfolk at the Commonwealth Sport Club here in Harlem some time ago and had Norfolk cuckoo for many minutes after the knockout.
KIDDIES AT NEW STAR
The wheels of time have again put to past a stretch of 365 days, and with it we have on hand the show you have waited so long for, Grace Giles and her famous Dancing Pupils in their annual theatrical revenue, which will be staged at New Star Casino, Friday night of this week, at 8.30 sharp.
The past performances of this aggregation of talented children point towards another excellent offering, among whom are some of greatest and most promising kiddie stoppers, such as Thelma Leybari, Jeppie Johnston, Thelma Edwards, Gloria Wilson, Rose (Marie) Lewis, Dorothy Small, Eleanor Johnson, Grace Flood and a hundred others.
To name the entire cast would make quite a list, so come out and see who is on program and enjoy yourselves in the finest way, with the finest people, with the aid of the finest dance orchestra, John C. Smith, conductor.
Miss Giles has worked like a
kingdom of kindness in their life, and gives the
kindness to their friends and family.
has many surprises in store for those who attend.
"Charleston Dandies," With Clarence Muse, Coming Here Soon
Word came to us last week from Clarence Muse telling us that he is on his way back to New York after an absence of many years and will be seen in a Muse offering entitled "Charleston Dandles," which has met with great success wherever shown.
Clarence Muse will never be forgotten by that large, fortunate number of people who visited the Lafayette Theatre in the days when the drama held sway at this house. Muse, casted in parts that called for him to be a villain, did such splendid work he was nicknamed "Villain" Muse, and this was the greatest tribute to his ability as an artist that could be paid him.
Muse is a versatile man, and New Yorkers will look for his return with the joy that can only

come from people who can appreciate the worth of one who took a particular pride in the work which stood head and shoulders above the jazz of the present age.
Midnight Show at Douglas Theatre Saturday
In line with the new policy inaugurated by the M. & S. Circuit upon the taking over of the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres, a midnight performance will be offered at the Douglas Theatre on the coming Saturday night, June 5.
On this occasion Clarence Williams, Eva Taylor, Nora Bayes and a number of others will appear in what we understand is another big revue being whipped into shape for the above mentioned night. Judging from the success scored elsewhere by revues, we do not hesitate to predict that a bumper house will be on hand to greet entertainers widely known in this section of the city.
Renaissance Theatre Again Offers Splendid Feature Films
At the Renaissance Theatre this week, the program will be as follows:
For Wednesday, June 2, the feature will be Dolores Costello in "The Little Irish Girl."
Thursday and Friday, June 3-4, Blanche Sweet, Hobart Bosworth and an all star cast in "The Far Cry" will be the attraction. This is an adaptation from Arthur Richman's play, replete with romance and thrilling scenes.
The week-end feature, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, June 5, 6 and 7, will be Elinor Gyn's "Soul Mates" a Jack Conway production starring Alleen Pringle and Edmund Love. This is a typical Elinor Glyn story with the eternally interesting sex theme. The picture is one that will thrill and fascinate with its surprising twists taken by this romance of wealth and society.

Splendid Vaudeville Program at the Savoy This Thursday
Thursday is fast becoming very popular with followers of the Savoy because of the unusually good vaudeville show presented each week on Thursday night. Some of the well-known acts that have graced the Savoy disappearing stage are Johnny Hudgins, Florence Mills, Rector and Cooper, Eddie Connors' Revue, Connette's Inn Revue and a host of others too numerous to mention. Negotiations are under way at present to engage the entire Cotton Club Revue and the new Club Alabama Revue for the very near future. Usual admission prices prevail for these exceptional programs.
Considering that one is enabled to dance to such good music as is provided continuously by the Charleston Bearcats and Fess Williams' Royal Flush Orchestra and can enjoy a good show in addition to the wealth of other features which make the Savoy so popular, it is no wonder that the slogan on Thursday nights on everyone's tongue is "See you at the Savoy tonight."
Cotton Club Revue at the Lafayette Next Week
Bigger and better is the Cotton Club Revue which comes to the Lafayette Theatre as the big attraction next week. We have it that this is the summer edition of this famous aggregation of dancers, singers and a new batch of comedians. Some weeks back we had occasion to speak of that splendid line up of chorines with the Cotton Club and those responsible for this end of the entertainment assure us that the creole beauties will play a return with new additions guaranteed to keep the most exacting audience until the final curtain
This week The Rainbow Revue opened with big houses, both Monday afternoon and evening. Standing room was again in order shortly after the doors were thrown open to the public and those wending their way into the house were well rewarded by a fine entertainment.
Beware of Eye-glass Faker
Beware of a man who comes to your door trying to sell you worthless eye-glasses.
He tries to influence you by making false statements: that he is a doctor, representing health departments, hospitals, institutions, etc.
He often uses my name to defraud the people of Harlem. He obtains money under false pretenses.

Palace Owner Freed of Charge in City Courts
Palace Owner Freed of Charge in City Courts
Johnny Powell, James Van Hook, Herbert Johnson and Edward Cooper all went to the bat with the District Attorney in the recent padlocking case which placed the clamps on the Capitol Palace on Lenox avenue and won the case without hardly any effort.
Messrs. Crane and Kalman, two young attorneys at 42 Broadway, represented Mr. Powell and his associates, and while it is true that they are youngsters, conducted the appeal from the conviction when the Palace was padlocked for six months in such an able manner older attorneys complimented them tentfully.
The case was tried before Judge Kormochan, who held that there was no reason for the charge brought against the place some weeks ago. It is the intention of the popular Johnnie to thoroughly renovate the place before again throwing the doors open to the public.
It would seem that a great deal of pressure has been brought to bear in places where such can do the most harm against young Powell, and this because he is one of the few colored men operating a place of this kind. Others have come into the district and without anything in common with the people, have found success, and we see no reason why Powell and his associates should not enjoy that full support to which they are entitled.

I have been reading with much interest the articles penned by you in the columns of the Amsterdam News, hence I saw your advanced information from the rating committee of the New York Tennis Association in your issue of May 5.
I have been reading with much interest the articles in the columns of the Amsterdam News, hence I saw information from the rating committee of the New York institution in your issue of May 5.
I expected to have seen some comment on same in her, but noticed that your space was taken up with other suppose were of more importance, so if you will perk your issue of May 19 I will register my opinion on the listed, and which I understand have subsequently been association.
It has from time to time become my bounden of adversely, when necessary, the work of the rating cost the local and national bodies, and on most of these action has been in defense of some of the fairer sex. To the previous occasions, so here goes:
Beginning with Mrs. Conick at No. 1 and ending with at No. 3, there is no comment to be made, as these are positions, but from No. 4 on the rating would be amused for the reaction it might have on the younger players all supposed to be so keenly interested in. I am worried the committee based its findings on the records of ladid. I can't see how it could possibly have left entirely ten Miss Helen Roberts, who, according to the record, merits No. 4 position in the ratings.
Miss Roberts defeated Miss Druscilla Weeks in the E. and S. Tournament, then defeated Mrs. Ted Hoe she played Mrs. Conick in the semifinals. This true put out in the first round of the New York State Tour opponent on this occasion was Miss Radcliffe, the second Chicago, and on this occasion she made a very favor. This together with her exhibitions in intercity and club the best meeting contention that on last year's form also is now No. 4 in New York State.
Miss Irene Swail at N. 9 and Miss Gittens at No. 1 placed. These two young ladies are close contenders in slight margin in Miss Gittens' favor. After No. 6 the so closely matched that you can toss a coin for the out. And now just a word in behalf of the youngsters is to interest in the game. My advice to these, if they in the tennis world, is to keep out of the clubs in H. have developed strokes with which they can combat to. To do this, all they need do is to write the Commissary of Manhattan, enclose one dollar or permit, ping themselves go as often as possible to courts where they will meet courteous and obliging youngsters help them, and by watching the older players they four necessary to become a champion. The large men clubs in Harlem and the selfishness of the majority of make it next to impossible for a youngster to get the in conclusion, and in defense of my previous star to inform these youngsters and the N. T. Assn. that the possessor of two gold medals, won in open competition last season. The young lady whom she defeated was so pleased with her playing that she teamed up with the doubles.
I expected to have some comment on same in your last number, but noticed that your space was taken up with other things which I suppose were of more importance, so if you will permit me space in your issue of May 19 I will register my opinion on the ratings, as published, and which I understand have subsequently been accepted by the association.
It has from time to time become my bounded duty to criticize adversely, when necessary, the work of the rating committee of both the local and national bodies, and on most of these occasions my action has been in defense of some of the fairer sex. This is not unlike the previous occasions, so here goes:
Beginning with Mrs. Conick at No. 1 and ending with Mrs. Leonard at No. 3, there is no comment to be made, as these are in their rightful positions, but from No. 4 on the rating would be amusing were it not for the reaction it might have on the younger players, whom we are all supposed to be so keenly interested in. I am wondering whether the committee based its findings on the records of last season. If it did, I can't see how it could possibly have left entirely out of the first ten Miss Helen Roberts, who, according to the records placed before me, merits No. 4 position in the ratings.
Miss Roberts defeated Miss Drusilla Weeks in the first round of the E. and S. Tournament, then defeated Mrs. Ted Hooks, after which she played Mrs. Conick in the semifinals. "Tis true Miss Roberts was put out in the first round of the New York State Tournament, but her opponent on this occasion was Miss Radcliffe, the second ranking player of Chicago, and on this occasion she made a very favorable impression. Then together with her exhibitions in intercity and club matches, form the best team that on last year's form alone Miss Roberts is now No. 4 in New York." Miss Irene Swail at N. 9 and Miss Gittens at No. 10 are also badly placed. These two young ladies are close contenders for No. 5, with a slight margin in Miss Gittens' favor. After No. 6 the other players are so closely matched that you can toss a coin for the other positions.
And now just a word in behalf of the youngsters who you are trying to interest in the game. My advice to these, if they would advance in the tennis world, is to keep out of the clubs in Harlem until they have developed strokes with which they can combat the older players. To do this, all they need do is to write the Commissioner of Parks, Borough of Manhattan, enclose one dollar for permit, and after equipping themselves go as often as possible to the courts in Central Park, where they will meet courteous and obliging youngsters who will gladly help them, and by watching the older players they will develop the four necessary to become a champion. The large membership of the clubs in Harlem and the selfishness of the majority of these members make it next to impossible for a youngster to get the proper tutelage. In conclusion, and in defense of my previous statements, I want to inform these youngsters and the N. T. Assn. that Miss Roberts is the possessor of two gold medals, won in open competition in Central Park last season. The young lady whom she defeated in the singles was so pleased with her playing that she teamed up with her and won the doubles.
Hoping you can find space to publish this, I am.

though we feel that his claim of the No. 5 position for Miss Helen Roberts is based more on a personal desire than on the point of real merit. Constructive criticism is always in order, but to do that kind of criticism we must purge ourselves of all traces of partiality.
It has always been a hard job for the New York Tennis Association to rate their players in the past due to the lack of a proper system, coupled with the fact that certain data that the clubs should give to the association were always lacking. The association should make it mandatory on the part of the clubs to furnish the rating committee with the necessary information that will aid them in their work of rating players at the end of the season.
This is not meant as a defense of the rating committee, however, and they may make such reply to Mr. Bell's criticism as they see it. We must, however, take violent exception to the paragraph of Mr. Bell's letter in which he gives advice to the youngsters which is, in substance, against joining the clubs in Harlem until they have developed strokes to combat the older players etc.
It has been our pleasure (and we feel it our duty) in the past, and more so this season, to advocate the enrollment of junior players in the clubs of the New York Tennis Association, with a proper systematic course in tennis training and the help and co-operation of the adult players and fans.
This movement has met with instant approval from players and fans. Teams, and plans are under way to put in motion the proper efforts that will allow the team to progressive era in the tennis world among our people—an example that can be followed by the rest of the country with credit to all concerned.
We have no desire to discourage any of our folks from getting the aid of our white brothers and sisters in any line of endeavor that means progress, but we do maintain beyond contradiction that the most important factor in the progress of the race has been its willingness to help itself and to co-operate with one another.
We must try to solve our own problems. We have tennis courts in our Harlem section that lots of money has been invested in, and if we were not to patronize and support these courts they could not be maintained for our use.
Although the public parks are available for our use, private courts are a necessity if we are to build up the game among our people, and we must do so with our boys and girls.
We feel that Mr. Bell can do more for the game he loves if he should advise the boys and girls to join the Harlem clubs, and himself help in the movement to raise funds to equip them with tennis paraphernalia and a tennis coach of ability.
Then, again, with all due respect to the park players, and particularly those of our race who have taken part, we have not seen any that came away from there with the foundations of the game that we are trying to give to our youngsters. In other words, those that we have seen are all chon, slice and cut-stroke artists, and while that style of player is all right in certain ways, we can find no one who will not agree that the basis of the modern tennis is built around the driving game.
We cannot hope to be a tennis factor ten years or less from now with boys and girls of today, as men and women of tomorrow, with the foundation of their game built on the chop, slice and cut-stroke theory of the game.
There may be park drivers, but we have never seen any of ours (who always come back to our Harlem courts) do anything else than cut, chop, or slice their strokes.

"Sea Horses" at the Roosevelt, June 6 and 7
Mack Swain, famous screen comedian, weighed 305 pounds when he began work as one of the principal players in "Sea Horses." Paramount's spectacular melodrama, which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre, June 6.
After a month of the hardest and hottest work of his long career, he stepped on the scales.
He weighed exactly 316 pounds. However, he was the striking exception, for the other players, including Jack Holt, Florence Vidor, George Bancroft and William Powell lost from five to ten pounds each.
"Sea Horses" was picturized by Allan Dwan from the exciting novel and serial magazine story of the same name by Francis Brett Young. It is an intensely gripping tale of a lone woman's adventures on the east coast of Africa.

Baltimore Annual Conference, which was organized in Philadelphia a hundred years ago. The conference will be held at Big Wesley A. M. E. Zion church, at Philadelphia, Pa., Dr. H. D. Tillman, pastor, is erecting a $150,000.00 church and hopes to have it completed at that time. A special committee composed of the following have been appointed to arrange the church service: hisp J. B. Caldwell, Pa.; Dr. M. L. Bullock, Pa.; Drs. J. H. Tucker, D. C.; B. J. Bolden, Pa.; G. M. Edwards, Pa.; W. D. Battle, D. C.; C. C. Williams, D. C.; H. D. Tillman, Pa. and H. L. Holt, Pa. RESOLUTION PRESENTED. Whereas, the rising tide of segregation and the flagrant disregard of constitutional authority has resulted in a widespread reign of laborlessness and utter disrespect of man. And, whereas, the present administration is pledged to the strict enforcement of laws and has made that the basic principle of the Coolidge Administration.
Be it resolved, that we, the members of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church do hereby heartily approve and commend the present ordinance and give our firm for rigid enforcement of the Constitution, and its amendments.
Be it further resolved that we look with distaste upon and strongly condemn all and any movement that tends toward the modification of the Vollead Act or the repeal of the eighteenth amendment; cognizant of the fact that such effort has been easily made, attempted modification and repeal of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments.
Be it further resolved that we believe in One Hundred Per Cent Americanism, but regard all organizations such as the K. K. K. to be not only un-American, but as dangerous to the political and civil order and tend to develop disrespect for rather than obedience to, constitutional authority.
Be it further resolved that we commend all organizations working for law enforcement, particularly the N.A.A.C.P. and others in their efforts to be connected to anti-lynching law upon the statute books of the nation.

This city will be the Mecca for thousands of Baptist Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. workers, teachers and pastors during the week beginning June 21. The occasion will be the annual convention of the great National Baptists Young People's Congress which will hold its sessions daily in the Clermont avenue Rink, near Myrtle avenue, with headquarters at the Concord Baptist Church, two blocks south on Adelphi street. Interest in the Congress is heightened this week by the arrival here of the Rev. Isaac C. Reddle. Field Worker for the New England District. Rev. J. B. Adams, pastor of Concord is chair-
REV. ISAAC C. REDDIE,
man of the General Committee and
R. Lincoln Powell, who knows
how to cater for big gatherings will
feed the southern army from noon
to night daily at Concord.
the congress opening session will be preceded by a large mass meeting to be held on Tuesday evening, June 22, at which speakers of national repute will deliver inspiring and instructive addresses and a chorus of five hundred voices will sing melodious songs with a gospel message that will wake up the careless and unconcerned and turn many hearts Christward.
The Rev. Dr. L. K. Williams, pastor of the Olivet Baptist Church at Chicago, who is also president of National body, will be here; also Rev. E. W. D. Isaac, Director General, and Secretary Sims will speak work and teach daily in the Rink. Four special trains will bring the delegates from the south and west to the tune of eight or ten thousand. Such a host as is predicted will come has never been seen in this great city where Beecher, Talmadge, William T. Dixon and Newell Dwight Hillis preached the gospel of glad tidings and good will to men.
Concord Chorus Singers
The chorus made up of the Concord singers, the Sunday-school orchestra has been augmented by the orchestra of the Berean Baptist Sunday school and vocalists from the church membership. Volunteers for the chorus have been being trained in music with the choristers and other leaders. Mr. Alexander Gatewood, the rising young soloist; Mr. L. H. Caldwell, organist of Concord; Mr. P. A. Myers, chorister of the Sunday school, have all been invited to participate in rehearsing the chorus. The pastors of all the churches are members of the pre-committee. Rehearsals are held at Concord on Wednesday nights and at the Metropolitan Baptist Church. West 125th street, on Thursday evenings.
Brooklynite Seeking to Get Out of Workhouse
David Alexander, of 93 Downing street, Brooklyn, who made a fortune selling love charms, brought habeas corpus proceedings last week before Supreme Court Justice Riegelmann in Brooklyn to obtain his release from the workhouse.
Alexander was committed for two months by Magistrate Haubert May 21 for fortune telling. His lawyer, Rufus L. Perry, declared the commitment specified disorderly conduct, which is a different offense.
Assistant District Attorney Lee admitted that Alexander probably would have to be discharged, but was given until June 1 to submit a brief on the law. Meanwhile the defendant will stay in pall.

Carlton "Y" Drive for $5,000 Goes Over
Workers in the Carlton "Y" camplign for $5,000 from May 19 to 24 found the Brooklyn public greatly interested and willing tooulder their knowledge of the responsibility of maintenance of the Carlton Avenue Branch.
About 40 men were actively engaged in seeing the people. They met each evening at the Branch for supper at 6:20 and, following their reports, 8:20. Of the 450 or more people seen, very few refused to contribute, and many made keen sacrifices in order that they might do their part. Members of the Board of Managers, who have never failed to render service, were also involved in other, contributed nearly $1,000 and 20 per cent of the required amount to balance the budget for year ending March 31, 1927, while 401 other persons made up the remainder of a total of $5,314. Board members of the Carlton Avenue Branch wishes to thank the people of Brooklyn for their keen into-sett and generous support.
Very truly yours.

FULTON GIVEN TWENTY YEARS
Sam Fulton, 30, of 18 Church street, Jamaica, "voodoo murderer," was sentenced to 20 years to life imprisonment in Sing Sing last week by Justice Adel in Queens County Court. He changed his plea to guilty after the prosecutor had outlined his case to the jury. Fulton was charged with first degree murder for the death of his common-law wife, Minnie Hall, whom he killed on Palm Sunday and then remained beside her bed for five weeks praying. He appeared before Magistrate Miller, bearing a large Bible, and declared that his dead wife had appeared to him in a dream, told him to admit the murder, be electrocuted, and join her in heaven. Fulton, at the time of his arrest, admitted killing the woman, but charged he did it in self defense as she had attacked him with a hatchet. He showed a scar on his head to County Detective Butler, who arrested him.
Minnie Hall was said to have been one of several women on the staff of a Jamaica cellar digger, known as "doctor" to a certain part of the colored population, who brew weird concoctions which they believe insured the drinker against loss of her husband's love.

The Literary
Indigestion
By J. FRANK DILLARD
SEE where Sinclair Lewis
I refused the-Pulitzer -prize
jor writing the best novel of
the year; So they better take
a hint from that and try not
to force the Spingarn medal
oa this writer—at this time.
In reading of the great British
general strike, I saw where every-
ining was calm and peaceful, ex-
cept. spordale brick fights; over-
timing of buses; probuble ‘starva-
ston; the complete incapacttation
\of all industry and possible revolu-
on.
The striking laborers poured out
over 1,000,000 gallons of gasoline,
sored on London docks, which
wused the wideawake American
business man to forthwith raise
ihe price of gas.
1 guess thay will shoot us for
treagen next!
But this 1s one time the British
“put it over’ on the Americans.
The Americans have nearly every
other record but they must bow to
Britannica im the “'strike-out"
record,
Maybe they could get Mexico,
Cunuda and Cuba to Join them ia
a sirlke to out-strike the English,
but then the Enclish could call on
ail thelr other dominions (exelu-
sive of Canada); so it doesn't seem
as 2 there Is any chance whatever
fer the Americans to outdo them.
Vuless—ah! unless—they _ could
prerall upon about ten Negroes to
Mick together long enough to put
over an effective strike!
‘But I assume Negroes are still
tea afratd to take @ chance on ans-
thing Ike that, for fear they will
sarve to death or even miss ono
geod meal of pork chops!

Race Discrimination in the District of Columbia
JUDGMENT should begin at the House of God. The District of Columbia is the seat of the National Government. The legislative, judicial and executive branches are all located here. At the Capitol laws are made for the Government of the United States. If the fountain head is pure the stream will be pure, but if the fountain head is polluted the stream must needs be defiled. It is, therefore, of prime importance to the colored people to keep a close eye and strict watch upon racial happenings in the District of Columbia.
During the last few weeks matters have been going from bad to worse and from worse to worst. The Interstate Commerce Commission has denied the United States Senate the United States Senate has, by decisive majority, declined to reintroduce the Dyer Bill, which aims to correct the evils of lynching. The provision for separate bathing facilities has been signed by the President of the United States.
The fact of separate bathing facilities is not out of harmony with prevailing practice and custom, in the district of Colorado, in the United States, utilities and facilities. The objection lies in having this discrimination written into the law by the Congress, of the United States. This is perhaps the most conspicuous indication to be found anywhere in Federal law.
The Supreme Court of the United States, by unanimous decision, has declared local covenants excluding colored people from buying, owing or occupying property in covenanted districts not unconstitutional. This gives these covenants the force and sanction to enforce them, making that this case originating in the capital of the nation, has been passed upon by three courts and thirteen judges with unanimous concurrence.
At the capital of the nation the Negro meets with every form of discrimination confronted in the Southern States. Distranchishment of the Negro, I believe, was first sanctioned by the passage of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments; but, in order to give it the semblance of fairness, the whites were equally distranchised. This reminds me to say that some of our Negro agitators seem to be more interested in equality than not being more distranchishment. The District of Columbia, because whites and blacks are alike voteless.
We have separate schools, the same as in the South and border States. There is no separate car law within the District, although Jim Crow cars from Virginia roll into the city at the attitude of the Government on national separation. There is no city in the United States of the size of Washington. There is no anti-miscellaneous law, although sudry attempts have been made to this effect. Some years ago we woke up one morning and found that such a measure had passed the House of Representatives and was defeated in the Senate only by keeping it from a vote by skillful tactics. There is constantly kept before Congress bills for the establishment of separate cars and antisecregation law. The most insidious form of race discrimination but presides in public sentiment. There is no law in Washington or elsewhere which forbids civil equality between the races, except in the instance above enumerated, and yet the Negro is effected by hotels, hotels, barber shops and places of amusement as if by statutory enactment.
It is vitally important that the race should keep its eye on the national Legislature, especially to forend unfair action. We have very little hope for affirmative action in our behalf, but live in constant dread of hostile enactment. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is the only effective organization in the field of political and civil rights. The headquarters are in New York City, but the real focus is the national capital. The local organization for this city has been fortunate during the past ten years in having at its head

By Kelly Miller man of the highest consecration and devotion.
The Honorable Archibald Grimke, recently retired because of age, was, and is, one of the most outspoken apostles for race equality, with the "I" dotted and the "I" crossed. He seized the "I" branch for many years and has been as effective as any other in combating race prejudice and discrimination at the national capital. He devoted the richest years of his life to this cause without regret, he would have survived, he would have injured remuneration for service rendered for human rights.
Fortunately he was succeeded by a younger man, Mr. Nevel H. Thomas, who is filled with a double measure of his power, upright and down straight on all matters of political and civil rights of his race, and as uncompromising as the Hebrew Prophet. As head of the police, Mr. H. Thomas, P. he keeps a hawk eye upon Congressional action and departmental procedure. He has acquired an infallible instinct in detecting racial prejudice and discrimination and never fails to hit it. an hit it hard.
He is a school teacher and draws his stipend from the Federal Government, and yet he never fails to denounce the wrong deed and the...wrongdoer with such unmistakable characteristics whom he criticizes, compelled to commend his courage and the righteousness of his position. When the rest of us were restrained by prudence and caution, he demanded equality of provision in the public schools, which, largely as result of his insistence, has become a charged position of the educational machinery of the national capital.
Sports are of a most democratic nature. They are more democratic than the church or school. There is less discriminatory than the church. Park than any other public institution in the city. When the monster, Prejudice, threatened to raise its head even in the sports, it was Nevel H. Thomas. In the impolyce and kept the sports of the national capital democratic. It was but last week that he appealed to the President of the United States not to sign the separate bathing laws, and the law discrimination by the Federal Government. Although his protest was not effective, it at least called attention of the Negro and the nation to the grave danger in the race nominated in the bond. As local prejudice is so strong as to prevent facilities, it is a wise policy to defer only as far as we must the race nominated practice, but never allow it to be crystallized into law.
In scanning the Sixteenth Annual Report of the N. A. A. C. P. I notice that much of its good work has been local in the several States and common in the measure that this should be so, and yet race prejudice can be fought more effectively at the center than on the circumference. The National Association did well to take over the segregation case in the national capital, for this fact the sentiment for the whole country.
The recent decision of the Supreme Court has already been quoted by the journals throughout the country for justification of schemes for justification of schemes for ever the Negroes residue in large numbers. It is deeply unfortunate that this example of race discrimination should first be set at the national capital. It is encouraging to hold the rest of the rotary of the N. A. C. P. after reading this decision, that the Association has just begun to fight; the fighting in the future must consider more largely than the fighting in the past fostering affirmative action; the hostile action on the part of the national Government.
When Nevel H. Thomas was first promoted to the head of the focal association, many felt that he was, perhaps, too outspoken and incautious for safe leadership, even of an agitative organization, but experience gained in the right he can hardly be overinstantiated. Even those who are opposed to one position will respect and admire uncompromising courage when they know in their heart of hearts that his course of action is just and right. It requires two types of effort: formal training for John Brown and Abraham Lincoln were the complements of each other; John Brown, with rockless courage and sacrifice to blast away at the evil foundation, and Abraham Lincoln for safe, constructive endeavor. The militant organization must, first of all, be militant. It must fight discrimination and prejudice without compromise. Other types of temperament
will do the safe and sane constructive work.
Nevel H. Thomas has consecrated himself to the cause of human rights as a sacred religion. He enters the conflict as upon a holy service, but himself with complete detachment, without fear of consequences or hope of reward. He devotes every moment of his time outside of his stated livelihood to the welfare of his race. During all of his service, he expected one cent remuneration for his services. You cannot buy devotion with dollars any more than you can purchase the gift of God with money. He spends material compensation as fifty lucrative performances of duty due to God. He would no more think of accepting a salary for this service than a priest would accept pay for prayer. Our one conspicuous militant organization is the key position in the national key position at the national capital a man of such militant spirit at such a time as this.

Needs of Negro Given Study in Louisiana
State Interracial Committee Sets Objectives in Welfare Program
NEW ORLEANS, La. May 31. A state house for delinquent. Negro boys, additional public schools and larger facilities for the training of teachers; the provision of parks and playgrounds for the prevention of delinquency among colored children, and initial steps toward the general provision of better housing conditions — were among the principal objectives set at the fifth annual meeting of the Louisiana State Committee on Race Relations held here this week, in conjunction with the State Conference of Social Betterment. The meeting was well attended and participation in the program was general. Prof. L. M. Favrot of Baton Rouge was re-elected chairman of the committee.

B. Elacera, educational director of the Commission on Interracial Relations, who stated the fact that no thoroughgoing welfare program is possible in the South which does not take into consideration the community needs of the colored group.

Reviews Early Stages of Woman's Suffrage
WASHINGTON, May 23—Early stages of the woman suffrage movement was the subject of a prominent member of the District of Columbia bar, before the Women's Republican National Political Society Club at the Phyllis Wade School, C. A., Sunday afternoon, May 23.
Mr. Wilson began with the struggles, hardships and sacrifices of the pioneers of the movement, in the 19th amendment. He mentioned the seeming lack of interest on the part of women to take a genial role in the movement and stressed the importance of colored women doing their full duty in preserving this amendment by taking an active part in the fight for the freedom and the nation. The address was well received.

INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION, that great
bugaboo of Negro inteilectuals, came
up for a hearing in the school contro:
versy being waged over the attitude of
the principal of Junior High School No.
136 in denying a member of the Alpha
Phi Alpha fraternity permission to talk
0 the student body on the importance
yf continuing their studies through high
school and college.
PARTICULAR emphasis was placed
yn the following passage from a leaflet
sent out by the principal to the parents
4f students in the school:
The General Course prepares for
the profession and should be taken
only by those pupils who have good
minds, are not over-age for their
grades, and whose families have the
financial ability to keep them at
school at least ten years longer.
If they leave the course without
completing it, they have no special
preparation for life, and will fall be-
hind those who are trained in. the
industrial or commercial courses.
Even those who finish face the
probability of a small income for
several years after leaving college.
The Commercial Courses should
be taken by pupils wishing to do
office work. This field is much
overcrowded, und only those pupils
who are specially fitted and special
ly well prepared for such work will
succeed in getting good positions. |
The Industrial Course is not pri-
marily to make milliners, dressmak-
ers, etc., but to give the pupils a
broad training along industrial lines, |
so that, if they have the ability,
they may be prepared to take the
more responsible, higher paid posi-
tions in those lines of industry for
which they are specially adapted.
A combination of skillful hands and
a good general education puts a boy
or girl in the way of earning a very
gocd living. .
FRANKLY, we see no harm whatever
in the three paragraphs quoted. They
are entirely in line with modern thought
along educational lines jor all races,
and should apply with no more force to
the Negro student than to any one else.
Such a program in the hands of a prin-
cipal intelligently sympathetic of the
Negro is an instrument making for
greater usefulness to the student of the
days spent in public schools, and it is
only when it is advocated by a principal
with preconceived ideas as to the kind
of education the Negro is capable of ab-
sorbing that it becomes both hurtful
and harmful.
IT MAY BE that.the principal of Jun-
jor High School Noz 136 is out of her
element when she is in charge of an in-
stitution ninety-five per cent of whose
students are Negroes. At feast, this

to the tenets of the. Fifth, Thirteent:

“IT 1S OBVIOUS,” proclaims the de
cision, “that none of these amendments
prohibited private individuals from en:
tering into contracts respecting the
control and disposition of their own
property . ... .” To this we agree,
but when individuals enter into an
agreement to proscribe a whole race it
is equally obvious that such an agree-
ment is contrary to the much-talked-of
American spirit, on which the democ-
racy. was supposed to have been
founded.
THE SUPREME COURT by its deci-
sion has set a dangerous precedent,
ene. which must in time make its con=
tribution to interracial friction and dis-
order.
INDIANA is still under the domination
of the Ku Klux Klan. Senator James E.
Watson has been renominated.

Manliness Under Race Prejudice
(Rev, AL L, Scott in Southwestern Christian
Advocate.)
The first uty of the genuine man, to my mind,
is not to whine, but to ACT. One subtle hatm that
prejudice may do is to create a chronic sense of
wrong which slves Tise (0 un exaggerated, morbid
sensitiveness, Tho victim of prejudice, if he be a
weakling, ix too apt to ascribe every inconvenience
and every failure to that source; to become thin-
skinned and defiant: to lose his clear, uoblased
judgment; to fall a victim to the manta of persecu-
on, Ho minimizes the abundant good-will that
surrounds hin on all hands: he becomes a sorehead,
plagned with suspicious harborings and complaints,
whose Injured vanity and smarting wounds obstruct
his nsefulness by crowding out every other consid-
eration.
To brood over one’s wrongs {s to fall into one
of the worst mental diseases, a disease which does
more than simply put an ashen pall over God's fair
‘sky, but harms us most by making us pity ourselves.
and robs us of two of the greatest thinga in the
world, namely. the capacity tovlove mankind and
the jor af service. Lat us not permit the conscious:
ness of prejudice to blur our aight and envenom
our hearts; let us fight with ourselves to preserve
our moral balance, our sense of proportion, our
objective, unbiased judgement, our wholesome in.
stincts of tellowshin, Do not allow the little cloud
on the sunlit horizon to be magnified by the jaun:
diced eyes of fears. and sensitiveness until to the
morbid fancy {t overeasts the sky and eclipses the
sunlight.

And how tiie white folks for
miles around fall for it, All
tha “ham” jokes are on Ne
groes, but I perceived: that
nearly all the HAM goes into
white people. Noah even bas
nis signboards 1a Europe, and
the traveler in France or the
Alps may read: “When visit:
tng California, go to ‘Noah's
Ark, tn beautiful San Mateo,
and eat the world-famous Vir
ginia sugar-cured ham.”
On busy evenings Noah's
block and all the blocks near-
by aro jammed with autos, and
the white animals form a line
outside waiting to get in and
extending often two blocks or
more from the door. Inside
the great specially built ban-
queting hall you will see Noah
in the rear, chief cook among
his cooks. with white cap and
cook's apron on. It is sald
that hia ham cooking process
4s only known to him, and that
he has tho recipes in # safe

So much for NOAH. Accord-
ing to Marcus Garvey. Josus
Christ and the Virgin Mary
were also black, or onght to
have been. The more I see of
white and black, the more I
think Garvey must be right.
And after all. didn’t Josus
get lynched, and wasn't Mary
Ike the great Black Woman
fn that she was the typical All-
Mother?
But let us wado out of that
deep theclogy before we got
drowned and talk on some
thing easy. Haye you notced
that little word “San” before
so many of these southwestern
names, where Spanislt gran:
dees and Spanish priests onco
ruled? It means “saint”:
San Mateo, Saint Matthew;
San Juan, ‘Saint John; Son
Francisco, Saint Francis,” nnd
fo on without number. The
feminine is “Santa,” hence
Sents Rosa, Santa Clara, San-
ta Catalina, and so on.
‘You would think that a peo-
ple. who made ‘such constant
Use of a religious epithet must
have been a very good people,
but we kmow that Spanish civ-
flization has been one of the
eruclest. doviis that ever in-
fested the earth,
‘That “San” only meant that
they were very RELIGIOUS;
it did not mean that they were
yery GOOD. Those ate differ:
ent facts. One can be awfully
religious without being gucd.
To bo ike Christ, to bo Chris-
tian in that sense, fs of course
different from being merely
Very religious. And so, ton, to
be like Buddha or like Socra-
tes. The Spanish regime was
at one and the samo timo the
Diggest example of religious
form and tho biggest sample
of tyranny and cruelty on tho
earth.
In San Mateo and in San
Joso many of the men wear
the enormously wide brimmed
straw hats with tassels hang-
ing from them, in the manner
of the Spanish. and “many
young men dress up like Valen-
tinos, with tight breeches and
many-colored hats held by a
cord tied under chin, It Is in-
teresting to note how many
gouthern Whites are in all this
country. One gets the impres-
sion that the women among
them are more Mberal and
promising than the men. After
the meeting women will
come forward and say: “I am
from Alabama—I agree witit
you,” or “{ was brought up
at Shreveport, and J have al-
ways felt that the thing wes
wrong.”
At the meeting of the Cali-
fornia “League of Women
Voters, with headquarters in
the great St, Francis Hotel, I
learned that, although few col-
, ored women ever seem to go
there, they are welcomed and
given the full freedom of the
meetings. There is no carre-
spondingly eminent organiza.
tion among San Francisco
white men that welcomes col-
ored men. And yet the popu.
lar idea {s that women aro the
more narrow-minded of the
population.
The leading women of this
San Francisco organization
were so genulnely interested
that wo had to have with a
selected group of them another
more private and social gath-
ering one evening at the home
of one of them. There we
talked frankly and freely con-
‘cerning anything and every-
thing in the whole black-and-
white business,

Centennial International Exposition to be held in Phila-
delphia from June 1 to December 1 will be the presen-
tation of a mammoth pageant, “Loyalty’s Gilt,” on July
t2th in the great auditorium, The pageant has a number
of striking episodes and is intended to appeal to the hu-
man sympathetic understanding of the white group for
the Negro. It is a highly dramatic picture of the de-
velopment of the race. even suggesting by one episod:
the early Egyptian days and linking the history of the

tracting the favorable atten-
ton of all who. have met her

own accomplishments are out-
standing. She played the lead-
ing woman's role in Eugene

To America
MERICA, dear fatherland, to thee
We bring this humble lay of fortitude
And dauntless loyalty!
From thee we learned the love of liberty.—
‘The deathless will that crowns the eagle's brood
With noblest royalty!
Although our fairer brothers still disdain
To own our royal blood that came from thee,
Thou art our native land!
We won our heritage thru bitt’rest_ pain.
And bold endurance bought our liberty,--
And yet a stronger band!
We would he false to Africa's kingly blood
Ii we were false to thee, America,
Land of fair Freedom's sun!
Let Hatred bank her lustful, greedy flood.
We shall be true to thee, America,
Till all the carth is one!
Our blood is blended in each crimson stripe
Our souls are shining in each silver star
Of lovely Freedam’s flag.
Shall atght of petty strife with filth hestripe
The folds of Liberty that_from afar
Shelters the cagle’s cray?
America, how could we love thee se,
Ji we loved Afriva’s sunny strand the les.
Borne on the eagle's wing?
Back to our motherland, our new blood’s flow,
Now bears the toreh of love, ta free, t+ bless.
And so in joy we sing! .
