Large streams from little fountains flow;

(Everitt.)
AS LONG as separate school systems for white and colored prevail in America, the endeavor to abort the ever-growing barriers to interracial contentment will be as difficult of consummation as buffeting the tides of the English Channel. Children are born into the world as of God and not as of man, who is responsible only for their physical content and contour, and not for the soul which within them lies all dormant to the ways of world civilization.
At a tender age, where separate school systems prevail, the impressionable child-mind receives its first knowledge that physical differences are the imaginary barometer of racial declensions which describe "superiority" for one group and "inferiority" for another.
As later periods of impression gather the white and the black children into their folds, there is corroborated in the mind of each the false doctrine of segregation, and when majority is reached the theory of a "God-intended" difference is permanent in the annals of both Christian and pagan.
Dominating numbers give a distinct advantage to the majority group, which, as the late ex-Senator Benjamin Tillman of South Carolina would have said, knows that "God intended the white race to reign supreme over the black race."
Thus, the separate school from the kindergarten onward is the priving lever which separates the races of America by color—not by brain force, ability, nor principles of Christian endeavor. And yet, how potent is a drop of Negro blood, one-eighth of which more than outteracts seven-eighths of Anglo-Saxon life fluid.
If America would match tremendous commercialism with Christianity, with science, with efficiency, and with patriotism, the separate school must eventually be made obsolete. It is the most fortunate breeding ground of Vanity the world has ever known. It ravages both religion and morals and anaesthetizes the chief virtues of both races.
The economic advantages it pursues to give by furnishing work outlets for ambitious Negro teachers are false, as is evidenced in the entire educational districts where it abounds, and as counter-evidented in Northern atmospheres, where hundreds of teachers, white and black, teach thousands of children, white and black, without regard to racial classification.
The separate school system has (Continued on Page 18.)

KU KLUX KLAN DEFENDER TENDERED PRESIDENCY OF LINCOLN UNIVERSITY AT MEETING OF TRUSTEES
The alumni of Lincoln, University has been stirred into a rage by the knowledge that the presidency of that institution has been tendered to a Southern man. The meeting at which the tender took place was held by the Board of Trustees of the university in the Witherspoon Building, Philadelphia, on June 23; it is claimed.
The man to whom the presidency was tendered was the Rev. Walter B. Greenway, pastor of the Bethany Temple Presbyterian Church, Fifty-third and Spruce streets, Philadelphia. He was born in Broylesville, Tennessee, and educated at Washington College, Tennessee.
In May, a committee of five of the Trustee Board was appointed to bring into the board of trustees at its annual meeting the name of a candidate for president. It is believed that the majority of this committee favored the selection of Prof. Walter L. Wright, who has been at the University for about thirty years, and who is well liked by the students and alumni. The alumni at its annual meeting, held at the University on June 15 also unanimously recommended Professor Wright. It is thought that the committee of five trustees had no opportunity to make their recommendation effective at the board meeting. Dr. John B. Laird, president of the board of trustees, corralled his friends on the board and rode rough-shod over the minority members who are the real friends of the University, it is said. The type of man Dr. Greenway is, is shown by the following taken from an article in the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, June 28: "PASTOR RAPS KLAN BAN." "Dr. Greenway Says He'd March if
"Mayor Kendrick's order refusing to allow the Ku Klux Klan to hold a parade in the city next September in connection with the Susqui-Centennial was criticised in a sermon last night by the Rev. Walter B. Greenway, pastor of the Bethany Temple Presbyterian Church, 54th and Spruce streets. 'Where are we Americans; are we going to be sold out?' he cried. In answer to this there was a chorus of 'No.'"

WASHINGTON. D. C., July 5.—The National Equal Rights League and the United Colored American Committee had an audience at the White House Friday noon, at which time there was presented a petition against Federal employee segregation. Twenty persons were in the delegation.
The audience was conducted by Maurice W. Spencer, treasurer of the League, who introduced the delegates, explicitly stating their purpose. After introducing the delegates he presented William Monroe Trotter, of Boston, secretary of the League, who presented the petition to the President.
Mr. Trotter placed on the table a big pile of petitions with 25,000 signatures from forty states specifying one from Maine and four from California, saying they proved universal geographical opposition to Federal segregation. He also presented one from the "372nd" Battalion, Massachusetts National Guards, which Mr. Coolidge authorized when governor.
He then asked the President to lead the day in having the United States make the 150th anniversary.

Whereabouts of Boy Still Mystery
Disappeared From Orphanage Conducted by Elder W. Roberson
The whereabouts of little Rudolph Boullier, age eight, who disappeared under suspicious circumstances from the orphanage conducted by Elder W. Roberson of the "ever live and never die cult." in Lawnside, N. J., are still shrouded in mystery.
Rudolph's disappearance was revealed by Mrs. Minnie Bedell of St. John's A. M. E. Church, this city, when she went to the orphanage June 17 last. On that day, she says, a woman by the name of Abby Yancy, who was in charge of the home, saw her coming down the road leading to the house with a detective, and knowing her mission, is believed to have concealed the youngster.
Mrs. Bedell was there a few days prior to this, she says, and states that the boy had received a severe heating. Rudolph is fair in complexion, with sandy hair and black eyes. He is said to be small for his age and has a rounded face.

Harry De Bose, alias "Harry Jones," who made a sensational escape from the police in White Plains three years ago after shooting a state trooper, was caught in an elaborately furnished apartment here Friday evening by representatives of the Boulin Detective Agency. For three years the state authorities had been baffled and without a single clue as to De Bose's whereabouts. While he was eating dinner, the detectives gained entrance into his apartment at 321 West 123d street and placed him under arrest.
Realizing that the officers were standing before him, De Bose, it is said, made a wild dash for his

Gun's Failure to Fire Probably Saves His Life—Intruder Shot in Leg—Has Criminal
After chasing an armed man through the rooms of a Harlem apartment, which police say, he was in the act of robbing, late Saturday afternoon. Policeman Otto Burke, of the West past street station, captured the intruder after shooting him in the right leg as he stood at bay, revolter drawn, on the stairway of the apartment house at 132 West 1925 street.
The alleged burglar, who gave his name as Albert Stuart, 75 83 West 1925 street, was taken to Bellevue Hospital. He had made an attempt to fire on Burke as he turned from his flight on the stairs. It is said but his turn to fire and Burke's bullet sent him down.

to avoid the drive through the city

was accompanied by Mme. Borno,

Leon de Jean, former Haitian Minister
to the United States; Mme.

President Borno said he had been tremendously impressed both by the resources and the courtesy of this country.

"My visit was a great success," he said, "Everybody was considerate of me. Even the weather was hospitable."
Economic and political conditions in his country were very good at present, he declared. "We are greatly benefited by the interest of the United States in our problems," he said, "and have every need of its co-operation."
As the ship passed the Statue of Liberty the twenty-one guns of the Presidential salute boomed out from Castle William on Governor's Island. She paused to acknowledge it. This tribute was delayed several minutes on his arrival here.

INVITES CAPITAL TO INVEST IN HAITI.
An appeal for American capital to develop qualified resources of the Republic of Haiti marked the address of Louis Borno, President of Haiti, at an inocence whence the Pan-American Society of the United States gave for him last Monday at the Bankers' Club.
President Borno deprecated the habits of Americans to invest in Latin-American government securities, rather than in developing the natural resources of the countries.
"The exploitation of the resources of Latin-America will vastly increase supplies of raw materials for American factories, and will also increase the purchasing power of Latin-America for the products of the United States," he said.
President Borno deplored the complaints of malcontents who try to convince the world that the United States has sinister designs on Haytil and declared that the ten years since the treaty with the United States have been the most prosperous in the history of his country.
John L. Merrill, president of the All American Cable Company, presided at the luncheon. Among the others present were Lieutenant Colonel J. A. Marmon, assistant chief of staff at Governor's Island; Leon De Jean, former Haytian Minister at Washington; Hannibal Price, resident Haytian Minister at Washington, and Leonce Borno, nephew of the President and Consul General in New York.

A dispatch from Havana says that a manifesto calling for the resignation of Luis Borno as President of Haiti has been issued by Haitian residents in Cuba, said to number more than 160,000, according to an article appearing in a newspaper there. The manifesto was especially directed to the Congress and Government of the United States.
The protest accused Borno of illegally usurping the office of President.
The manifesto demanded the re-assembly of the legislative chambers and the holding of constitu-

Finally he urged abolition was a fair return for over 150 years of fighting, dying and sacrificing and in just appredication of a perfect record of loyalty with never a traitor.
The Rev. Thomas S. Harten, national organizer, urged the President to live up to the traditions of Massachusetts.
The President replied to the spokesman in a calm, friendly manner. He said that some segregation had been removed and he would continue his opposition to it until it was all removed.

loaded revolver. The quick action of the private agents prevented him from carrying out his plans.
A little over three years ago De Bose, who had been employed at Yale University, secured work as a butler and his wife as a maid in the home of a wealthy family in Scarsdale, near White Plains. They lived in the rear of the big mansion in a comfortable little cottage. His employer after reprimanding De Bose one night summoned the police. It was late that night when the state troopers knocked on the door of the little cottage, but De Bose refused to open the door. The officers then began to break into the house. As the first man passed the threshold, De Bose opened fire. Three bullets took effect in the trooper's left shoulder.
With his wife the assailant jumped out of the back window of their dwelling and escaped. District Attorney Rowland took charges of the case. Every clue was ex-
haunted by his office in an attempt to find him.
Four months ago the private detectives were retained to continue the man hunt.
Shortly after 9 o'clock, the detectives rang the door bell to the six-room apartment. Going under their assumed names, Mrs. Jones answered the door. Her husband made his last attempt to get his loaded revolver. A few minutes elapsed, and it was all over for "Mr. Jones."
Before he was taken to White Plains, De Bose was quizzed in the 132d street station. He said that he was working as an electrician for the New York Edison Company. During the examination, he exhibited no signs of nervousness. He repeatedly denied the charge of being from the White Plains vicinity, but the authorities identified him by a photograph. According to the police, De Bose served 11 months in jail at New Haven, Conn.

Charged With Theft of
$7,500 Worth of Silk
Charged with the theft of silk valued at $7,500, three men were arrested early Friday by Parchman Martin Welsh of the West 30th street station after he had seen them, he alleges, carrying the merchandise from a loft building at 125 West 30th street into a taxicab.
The suspects fed at his approach, but he gave chase in another taxicab and overhauled them at Eighth avenue and 30th street and forced them into the curb. Thirty-four bolts of silk were said to have been in the cab.
The prisoners gave their names as John Hines, 26 years old, of 306 West 121st street, the chauffer of the car; Joseph Doran, 27, and Richard Green, 28, both of 119 Edgecombe avenue. Hines denied any complicity in the burglary. The three were taken to Jefferson Market Court for arrest.

Although Simons has been unable to raise a $2,000 bond, his ball was raised by the to $3,000. Last week when the prisoner was arraigned before the Magistrate, and Murkie was still in Harlem Hospital, his ball was set at $2,000.
Murkie testified that in pushing his way into an elevated train at 66th street and Ninth avenue he rubbed against Simons. An argument between them followed and Simons called him a vile name, he said. In retaliation he swung at Simons with his fist.
In defending himself from the blows of the big, tall, muscular white man, Simons, who is about five feet five inches in height, returned the blow. Simons, who had been cleaning his finger nails with a penkite, accidentally stabbed Murkie, it is alleged, in warding off a thrush at him by Murkie.
Simons was not given an opportunity to tell his story. The court waived his examination, informing his lawyer that it would be a waste of time to go further into the hearing.
The complainant was not cross-examined.
Nothing was said, of course, of the brutal manner in which the police officers beat Simons when they placed him under arrest. He is being held for trial in the General Sessions.

All efforts by the police to establish some clue to the identity of the shooter have failed. When questioned at the hospital, Orrico claimed that he had never seen the man before and had no idea who he was. Other men who were in the place at the time of the shooting gave a good description of the gunman, but all stated that they did not know him.
Despite Orrico's story that he does not know the man, police are of the belief that he is concealing his assailant's identity. They base this theory on the fact that only persons known to the owner were admitted to the "speak easy."
About a half dozen men, white and colored, were in the place when the unknown assailant entered. According to witnesses, he had one or two drinks and then walked over to the bar and demanded that Orrico give him "all the honour in the place."
The proprietor ordered the man to be quiet and sit down. The man then whipped out a gun and fired one shot which struck Orrico in the abdomen and passed through

ston, 242 West 133d street, near Seventh avenue, driver of the truck, ran his machine to the curb, and, it is said, jumped off and could not be located after the accident. Winston was driving south on Lenox avenue, and attempted to turn east on 136th street, when it is said, he struck the passenger car, which was proceeding north on Lenox avenue. Immediately after the crash, Policeman James B.

Harris disclosed the driver's identity and police are searching for him.
The four men were treated by an ambulance physician from Harlem Hospital, after which all were able to go home.

Still holding the revolver, the man backed out of the door into the street, where he disappeared. Someone phoned the police of the East 126th street station and within a few minutes six detectives headed by Thomas Ryan, the new deputy inspector of the district, arrived on the scene.
They found Orrico where he had collapsed on the floor and a few of the customers, whom they took into custody. One of the detectives phoned for an ambulance and Dr. Schwab of Harlem Hospital responded. He ordered Orrico removed to the institution immediately.
Police made a house to house canvass of the neighborhood in an effort to find some trace of the gunman, but their efforts availed nothing.

Strike Worker Shoots Annoyer
Garfield, N. J., Man Says Striker Cursed and Stoned Him
The second shooting in the twenty-three week textile strike occurred a day last week when a striker was shot by a worker at the United Piece Dye Works at Lodi, N. J., says the Associated Press.
Walter Brunk, white, aged 38, of 776 Passalo street, Passaic, the wounded man, was taken to Hackensack Hospital. He was shot in the right arm and his condition was said not to be serious.
Nathaniel Branth, of Garfield, told police Brunk and two companions accosted him on Burns avenue as he left the plant and cursed and stoned him when he refused to join the strikers. He fired several shots at them from a revolver. The police said the other men wore Philip Maddena and Thos. Regan of Garfield, both white. Regan is a picket captain of the United Front Committee and has been arrested many times during the strike. Branth was held on a charge of atrocious assault and battery. The other shooting was in Wellington a few weeks ago, when a worker fired into a crowd of strikers gathered around his home. A 14-year-old boy was slightly wounded.

Correspondent, in Letter, Tells of Inhuman Act of White Man in Newport News, Va. Lad Drowns
In a letter Mr. R. Hoyt of 2088 Fifth avenue has brought to the attention of The Amsterdam News one of the most brutal acts of inhumanity ever recorded, which he says, took place in Newport News, Virginia, June 15. His letter follows:
"Breon Bradby, a 15-year-old first year student of Huntington High School of the same city, having been exempt from his examinations on account of his excellent work, went down with a number of his school mates to the boat harbor. Finding a life preserver he put it on.

It is remembered that only several months ago a young Sunday School teacher was forced to resign from the organization. Her modern views about religion were condemned by the officials. It is
"As it is common with boys, his friends dared him to plunge into the water, knowing he could do but little swimming. Being a brave lad, he jumped in. At this point the water was very deep and the current was moving rapidly, so that the life preserver was not sufficient to save him. Twice he went down and the third time raised a hand as if calling for help. But his now frightened companions could not lend their aid.
"In the meantime, a white man in a rowboat came upon the scene. Thinking that the youngster was white because of his fair complexion, he asked to what race he belonged. Not knowing the reason for the question his companions retorted 'colored.'
"Then this white man, instead of rescuing the boy, tied a rope around his leg and held his head in the water says: You fair skinned N—— are passing and getting jobs that we white people ought to get.' So the poor youngster met his death when for conscience sake he might have been saved.
"Told by his companions of the incident, one of his teachers rushed to the beach but it was too late. Nothing could be done. What is more his parents were not allowed to approach the beach."
Bethel Breaks With Chorister
Because the trustee board, he said, refused to approve of his recommendations, Hebert A. Allen resigned as director of the Bethel A. M. E. Church Choir last week. Although the differences between the church board and chorister had been brewing several weeks, it did not become generally known until his departure. Efforts on the part of several of the officials to ignore Mr. Allen and subordinate him to organist are said to be the principal reasons for the break. From a reliable source it was learned that every progressive move introduced in the church is met with strong

opposition by a fundamentalist group.
It is remembered that only several months ago a young Sunday School teacher "was forced" to resign from the organization. Her modern views about religion were condemned by the officials, it is claimed.
Some of the members contend that Bethel, despite its membership and connection, is one of the most retarded churches in the A. M. E. connection.
A movement is now on foot to raise a large sum of money to erect another church building and the slogan "Build a Greater Bethel" has been adopted.
Mr. Allen has been director of the choir for over two years. According to a reliable informant, he will now devote all of his time teaching at his studio. 434 West 163rd street.

BEAUTY FASHION HOUSEHOLD HINTS
THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT
WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS to be self-evident; that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. . . . And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."
So reads this excerpt from that document, aged with years, over which our fathers pondered, thought and even labored in 1776 — July 4.
This week — one hundred and fifty years later — we have not the problems that confronted those early settlers. Yet we do have problems.
The men who sat in Independence Hall were lawmakers. The men who sit in our legislatures today — one hundred and fifty years later — are, too called lawmakers.
Yet, "in the course of human events." one hundred and fifty years later, we do not live as though all men are created equal."—T. E. B.

Keep Scalp Clean
A normal scalp is extremely rare. Practically speaking, there is no scalp which is not infected in some way, to some degree. This is not at all strange when it is considered what a "catch-all" for dirt the hair of the scalp is. It not only retains the dust and soot of the atmosphere but also holds and conceals secretions of the oil and sweat glands and the scales which are constantly being thrown off. The hair is probably drier than any other part of the skin surface. Yet millions of otherwise clean persons—especially women—go through life believing that the hair should be washed as little as possible. They often wash the teeth of their bodies at least once a day and even wash their teeth and faces many times daily. But they wash their hair only once in two or three months—a practice of neglect as bad as wearing your stockings that long without washing.
The fact is that the scalp should be washed at least once every week. For despite all time-honor-

ed notions to the contrary, washing does not hurt the hair, it marvelously improves it and promotes growth. With the right kind of soap, thorough rinsing and drying and the application, or a little oil to the hair, it may be beautified. Shampooing regularly removes the dirt, dust, scales, grease and infectious agents and the liability of further infection is decreased. Circulation will be improved and the general tone and appearance of the scald and hair are brought up to what they should be—and seldom are.
The Cook Says---
Cakes must be cold before being iceed. The best results are obtained when the cake is made one day and iceed the next.
A pinch of soda in the milk when making cream of tomato soup is a preventive against curdling.
A small piece of butter added to the water in which rice or lima beans are cooked will prevent their bubbling over.
To cut pastry sharply and neatly the knives and fancy cutters should be dry, clean and floured. The only other way of cutting is to dip the instruments in boiling water and use them at once.
When cooking eggs, wet the shells thoroughly in cold water before dropping them in the boiling water, and they will not crack.

WHO IS SCHOMBURG?
June’ 18, 1888,
Editor Brooklyn Page,
N.Y, Amsterdam News,
‘Brooklyn, N.Y.
Dear Sir:
T have read with a great deal
of Interest about the purchase
‘ef the Schomburg Library and
while, with a number of other
Brooklynites, | know that Mr.
Schomburg le a resident of
Brooklyn, think It rather strange
Geapite the many things said
about this epoch making event
in the history of Negro literary
advance, nothing Is sald of the
man who has devoted more
than a quarter of a century to
tne accumulation of books on
le race.
‘Who is Sohomburg? From
whence did he come? To my
way of thinking. the decision
of this man to sell hie valuable
Wibrary for about one-tenth
what it is worth bocause he is
moved with a strong desire for
tha advance of his race Is some-
thing #0 Inspiring It gives one
renewed confidence in the race
to which we belong. Had Mr.
Schomburg written the “Cess
Pool Blues" or some other rot:
zen contribution to the jazz age.
columns would have been writ:
ten on his tife.
{ have carefully followed the
accounts of the sale of the
Schomburg Library and am sti!l
in the dark as to whether Mr.
Schomburg ls an Amertcan
indian, Esqumeau or x Gypay.
Publication of this letter will
pethapa prompt those who are
‘20 loudly singing hie’ praises to
tell us from whence he came and
‘the youthful environment that
gave us auch a splendid example
of upstanding race manhood.
Yours truly,

That Achievement -
Begins With Dreams
‘The Rev, Henry Hugh Proctor

Sundsy morning on “The Vision of
a Dreamer.”
“Fira thousand years ago.” be
said, “there ‘played on the hills of
Canaan a boy sho: was destined
to play a large part in the history
of the world. His name was Jo-
seph, and he was s dreamer. Re
buked by his father, hated by his
brothers, imprisoned by his mas-
ter, forgotten by his associates, he
nevertheless held on until his
dreams came true, He saved bis
tanlly 10 time of famine and be:
came the forerunner of the Saviour
of mankind.
“Contrary to popular conception,
the world owes an uaparable debt
to dreamers, ‘The {nsptration of
all pronrens ts due to dreams. A
Greamer foresaw thie wonderful
continent and led the way to It
& dreamer foresaw this ‘unique
Sroup of states and carved out the

MILLION DOLLAR FUND to fight segregation, Jim Crow and disfranchisement, "the last vestiges of slavery," was launched in the Auditorium Theatre at a mass meeting of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, before it closed its seventeenth annual conference here. The fund was launched during the address by the secretary of the association, James Weldon Johnson.
"What American Negroes need and what we propose to begin raising now," declared Mr. Johnson, "is a fund of one million dollars to fight segregation, Jim Crow and disfranchisement, these being the last vestiges of slavery.
"Such a fund will be a demonstration of the mass power which the Negro intends to use and will serve notice upon the country of the Negro's determination to secure and maintain every fundamen-
Bill, which would make lynching a Federal offense and provides for a fine of $10,000 to be imposed upon any county in which a lynching occurs, such sum to be recoverable by dependents of the mob's victim.
"A sincere and earnest effort has been made by the House of Representatives in the past several Congresses to pass this measure," said Congressman Dyer.
"No Hope for Negro in Party Politics"
Speaking before a mass meeting of the Association, William English Walling, writer and lecturer, declared that the Negro must look for salvation elsewhere than in party politics. Mr. Walling urged that Negroes throughout the United States vote independently of established political parties. "As a persecuted minority the colored people must vote for their friends absolutely, regardless of party," declared Mr. Walling. "And that is exactly what they are doing in every Northern State. When there is no friend to be voted for and no enemy to be voted against, a colored citizen may vote for 'his' party. But, even then, he knows it is only 'his' party for that one election and in that one State. In

"What American Negroes need and what we propose to begin raising now," declared Mr. Johnson, "is a fund of one million dollars to fight segregation, Jim Crow and disfranchisement, these being the last vestiges of slavery.
"Such a fund will be a demonstration of the mass power which the Negro intends to use and will serve notice upon the country of the Negro's determination to secure and maintain every fundamental right which should be his in common with other Americans.
"It is possible and feasible for American Negroes to raise this million-dollar fund. The race has the money and can give. The demonstration was recently given in the quick raising of a Legal Defense Fund of more than $70,000.
The American Negro asks no allowances for what may be his shortcomings or his lapses. But he does demand equality of treatment. Ignorant white men have rights; poverty-stricken white men have rights, and even white criminals have certain rights, and these rights belong to them regardless of their condition. We intend to see that unhappily circumstanced black Americans have the same guarantees and opportunities as unhappily circumstanced white Americans. "We shall, moreover, use this power to smash the practices which allow the most unkept white persons to travel under first-class conditions while the nearest colorful person must travel Jim Crow; that allow the most ignorant white citizens to vote and bar the most intelligent black citizen; that allow a white man charged with crime to be tried by a court of law and a black one to be burned by a mob at the stake."

the neighboring State he knows very well that that same party may be in the hands of the Ku Klux. And he doesn't know who will control "his" party in the next election.
"Non-partisan voting is comparatively new and there is not always a full realization of what it means. It means, first of all, that the colored people must give first consideration to their own protection and advancement, viewed, of course, in a broad and enlightened spirit. No true friend of the colored people, whatever his politics may be, can honestly urge the colored citizen to do anything else. You must consider yourself first. Is this narrow or selfish? It is not. If each social group voted intelligently and with true vision for its own highest interests, we should have an ideal commonwealth. It is to the general interest that each group should attend to its own business — provided that business is not conceived in a small-minded or short-sighted spirit. We can never get anywhere by attending to one another's business.
"But is this all that is needed to make the ballot effective? Can the colored people confine their attention to their own interests thus broadly conceived? They cannot—and for two reasons. They must take their stand with those who want to make the ballot effective and they must take a stand against those who want to deprive the voters of all effective power over the social structure. They must be prepared to fight shoulder to shoulder with the other democratic forces for the direct primary and every other democratic institution, and they must be prepared to fight each and every special economic interest and political reactionary that is opposing the development of democratic institutions.
"The colored people can, and should be, non-partisan to every other issue. They cannot be non-partisan to the issue of popular government."
Colored Women of Nation Organized
Mrs. Addie W. Hunton of Brooklyn, N. Y., president of the Empire State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, asserted before the Conference that upwards of 100,000 colored women throughout the country were organized to protect the citizenship and civil rights of the Negro in America and would enthusiastically support the campaign for justice and equality being waged by the Association. "When American slavery ceased," said Mrs. Hunton, "nearly two million colored women were thrown out into a civilization not only hostile for the most part, but in which they were also the most misrepresented and most misunderstood factor. "As a matter of self-preservation these women instinctively realized the value of organization and almost at once they began to form societies for mutual benefit and

Col. Theodore Roosevelt protection. This was no doubt the real beginning of the club movements among colored women, although it was almost 30 years later that the National Association of Colored Women was formed and began a real unifying of women's interests. "Now there are more than 100,000 intelligent women of vision so systematically organized that it begins with the local club, penetrates through State, section and nation into the great International Council of Women.
"It is only reasonable to expect that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the outstanding organization doing effective work on issues affecting the Negro in America, should have behind it the full force and power of the largest organized group of colored women in the world. Already these women have demonstrated their desire to support the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, but the time is now ripe, we believe, for a positive affirmation of their readiness to stand behind the Association in a more united way than ever before.
"Mary B. Talbert, the late president of the National Association of Colored Women, held her torch aloft against lynching, and the women in every part of the United States lighted their torches from hers, and there was such a light thrown upon that horrible crime that the nation knew it in shame. This worthy effort of Mary B. Talbert has left its challenge for us. Knowing the spirit and heart of colored womanhood I predict that
segregation, disfranchisement and the other evils which nullify the rights of colored citizens will receive their severest defeat when the womanhood of the race enthusiastically organizes its next crusade to help the N. A. A. C. P. in its fight for real citizenship for all colored Americans."
Dr. Du Bois Asks Support for Artists
Asserting that the art and creative ability of the Negro race, manifest throughout history, was now coming to expression in America, Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, editor of The Crisis Magazine, speaking at the closing mass meeting of the Conference, urged freedom and support for Negro artists.
Colonel Roosevelt
Asks Full Rights
Demanding for colored Americans full civic rights and equal opportunities with all other citizens, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt addressed a crowded and enthusiastic mass meeting of the conference last week.
"The United States is a country wherein all citizens are supposed to have an equal share in the government," he said and then continued: "We are, according to the principles on which this nation was founded, equal partners in its governmental affairs. Any man or group of men who attempt to deny full civic rights to any citizen on account of race, creed, or color is committing a thoroughly un-American act, one that is subversive of the ideals of the country.
"Your organization as I see it is striving to obtain full constitutional rights for colored Americans and by opening opportunities to them to help them build themselves into better and finer citizens. All colored Americans must have full governmental rights. There must be no distinctions made by law either covertly or openly against any of our citizens. In certain States by subterfuges as to registration or simply by force, colored citizens are denied the vote. Any state which prevents its colored citizens from exercising their privilege of the franchise simply because they are colored is subverting the Constitution of the United States. Every real American should demand that this evil be set right and do his level best to see that his demands receive proper attention.
"Equally important with governmental rights are civic opportunities. Colored Americans must be
given the opportunity to get the proper education. It is rank injustice for any community to do otherwise. Not only is it rank injustice to the colored Americans but it is rank injustice to the United States, for the children of today are the country of tomorrow. Anyone who denies the children the chance to get a good education is striking directly at the interests of the entire country. In the interest of my children, I demand that all children be given a fair chance.
"I have heard time and again short-sighted Southerners maintain that the Southern Negroes are not educated enough to exercise the franchise intelligently and in the same breath state that they did not believe in spending money on schools for colored people. They do not seem to realize that their injustice in refusing to provide schools was responsible for the conditions of which they complained. They were perfectly willing to see the Negroes called upon to pay taxes and defend the country in time of war, but they denied them the vote and schools. They were willing to see them bear the burden of citizenship but would deny them the privileges.
"We demand for all American citizens full governmental rights and full opportunities for development. I will fight with every ounce of strength that I have for the rights of my colored American fellow citizens, but it is their responsibility when they get those rights to employ them.
They have done excellently as anyone who scans the record of the last seventy years must admit. Their advance in commerce and industry is evident in any of our great cities. Their work has not been confined to gainful occupation. There are educators like Booker Washington; soldiers like Colonel Young; poets like Dunbar and Johnson; historians like Woodson; singers like Roland Hayes. I could give a hundred more names, many of them men whom I am happy to call my friends. They took their part in the war. We served together as comrades together in France. Many of them lie buried there with my brother.
"This development must continue and broaden. At this time, I feel one of our needs is more sound, able leadership for colored men by colored men. It is for this reason I am happy to be a member of The Spingarn Medal Committee, for I feel that by recognizing leadership you encourage it.
"We are Americans now and nothing else and our first duty is to this country. Our loyalty does not lie first either to your African ancestors or to my Dutch ancestors. We wish all men well wherever they may live in the world but primarily our service and our duty lie here in our own country. We
demand for all colored Americans the full opportunity to develop themselves and we pledge to this country our undivided and unchangeable loyalty and devotion."
John Hope Sees Improved Race Relations
Dr. John Hope. President of Morehouse College. in Atlanta, Georgia, in his address forecast an era of new and better relations between white and Negro races as a consequence of a growing educated minority of whites, many of them in colleges and universities, who are working to improve race relations.
"There are at least four classes of people in the South," declared Dr. Hope. "One class is composed of those who are out and out against the Negro and believe him worthy neither of opportunity nor effort. Another class, at least for selfish reasons, wants to give colored people a better chance. A third class quite unselfishly wants to give the Negro a better chance but all the while adheres to all established distinctions. The fourth class is a small but very inspiring and a growing group.
"A goodly number of this fourth group are young and well educated people who believe that it is possible to give the Negro a square deal according to the American ideal of the square deal and that that can happen without jeopardizing the interests of this country or of any group in this country. This group represents probably the most inspiring and significant movement in racial matters in the South today.
"It is my hope and expectation that my section of the country will grow less provincial; and that in the improved spirit of liberality the Negro may come in for a share of democratic, fundamental, better consideration.
"But a second and to me encouraging sign is that this small generous and unselfish group to which I have referred will in the long run exert the same sort of powerful influence, that other righteous minorities have exerted. This is all the more assured to me because in this group of most liberal people there is a goodly number of young and educated women as well as men.
"On the whole I think things are improving in that the Negro is getting: 1. Somewhat better protection in courts and from police officers; 2. That improved public school facilities are being offered; 3. That there is an increasingly large number of instances all over the South of the two races having better opportunities to come together for conferences where they may talk freely together and even act together for the common good."
Woodson Receives Medal
With the presentation Thursday night of the Spinging Medal by Dr. John Haynes Holmes of New York to Dr. Carter G. Woodson of Washington, D. C., Editor of the Journal of Negro History and author of numerous historical books on the Negro in America, the Conference came to an end.

New Rochelle Turns Down Hegeman Home
NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y., July 5. By unanimous vote the Board of Health Wednesday declined to approve the establishment of the John R. Hegeman Home for Girls here.
The decision followed a stormy meeting the preceding Monday at which proponents and opponents of the plan were heard. It was contended that the home would be a correctional institution and thus was barred by the zoning law. It was denied that there was race prejudice, behind the opposition. Fred R. Moore and other members of the Board present stated that a decision to build the home was reached only after consultation with city officials, who raised no objection.
Court action is said to be possible, although those behind the project have offered to establish the home in some other community if reimbursed for the $25,000 spent for land and the $4,000 expended on improvements.
Appropriation Made for Jim Crow School
PHOENIX, Ariz. July 5.—A yearly building program of $180,000 has been pronounced by Superintendent of Schools J. D. Loper as inadequate to meet the gain in enrollment in the city schools due to the increased population at Phoenix. The high school building program includes expenditure of $150,000 for the benefit of colored students to be housed in a modern structure in the southeastern part of the city.

Open Evenings and Sundays
Two thousand enthusiasts turned out at New York Oval on Sunday to see the Canadian cricketers play against the pick of New York in a two-day contest. At the end of the first day's play the score stood: New York, 258; Canada, 17. The outstanding feature of Sunday's play was a grand innings of 102, scored by B. Dash for the New Yorkers. Starting in uncertain style, Dash was missed twice before he had made ten runs, but after his escapes he settled down and obtained complete control over the bowling and gave a magnificent display. Nineteen times he crashed the ball to the boundary, and the crowd was in a frenzy as he neared the century mark. Upon reaching three figures he received a big ovation.
New York batted first, A. Simpson and H. Dear putting together sixty-seven runs before the latter was bowled by Burgess for seventeen. Simpson continued to hit out brilliantly and ran his score to forty-seven before being cleverly stamped by Probyn. Five wickets were down for 123 when Holder joined Dash, and the pair hit the bowling all over the field, the partnership adding 111 runs before Holder was caught in the deam field by Mustard for a well-played twenty-seven Dash continued his merry innings until caught by the same player. With his dismissal the end soon came, the total reaching 253.
The Canadians had thirty minutes at the wicket, during which they scored seventeen runs for the loss of Mustard. The close of the day's play was marred by an accident to F. I. C. Goodman, of the Canadian team, who struck at a rising ball from Butterfield, which bounced upward and fractured his nose. The player was attended by Dr. Morrison, also on the visiting team. Play will be continued today at 11 o'clock.

ST. KITTS LOSE TO CANADIANS
The visiting team of Canadian cricketers easily defeated the St. Kitts eleven by six wickets at New York Oval on Saturday. The superb bowling of Potter, who captured six wickets for 25 runs, backed up by brilliant fielding, brought about the downfall of the New Yorkers.
St. Kitts took first turn at the wicket, but only compiled 56 runs. R. Yearwood, with 17 out: A. Richardson, 16, and N. Yearwood, 14, were the principal scorers.
The Canadians at once gave evidence of their scoring abilities when Alwyn and Goodman put together 27 runs for the first wicket before the former was run out for a well played 19. Mustard and Goodman advanced the score to 56 before Goodman was brilliantly caught at the wicket for a faintest inning of 23. Mustard ran his total to 28. Bates made the winning stroke with a clever boundary.
N. J. PLAYERS IN NEW ENGLAND
NEWARK. N. J. July 5.—Messrs. Lester, B. Grenger, Clinton Henry, Kenneth Worde and T. C. Williams represented the New Jersey Tennis Association in the recent New England Championship Tennis Tournament on the Brown University courts in Providence. R. I.

Mr. Granger says that forty players from New England will have a special car to Bordentown for the Eastern Championships the week of July 26th to 31st. Ted Thompson and Talley Holmes are among the stars who have already sent in entries for the Easterns, and a final entry list of one hundred is expected by the committee in charge of the tournament. Attorney J. Mercer Burrell of Newark, N. J., heads the tournament committee, Prof. Lester B. Granger of Bordentown is chairman of the Entertainment Committee and E. Harold Hopper of Newark is chairman of publicity.
NEWARK STARS ARE DISBANDED
NEWARK STARS ARE DISBANDED
The Newark Stars, organized at the beginning of this season by Andrew Harrie, have been finding the sledding so tough in Eastern Colored League that they were forced to disband the past week. The Stars were able to win only one League game out of 10 and in addition they have been meeting all kinds of financial handicaps. The team is owned by the same men who own the Newark Bears of the International League. These men attempted to erect a modern ball park in Newark early this season and this effort put them in financial difficulties. The Newark Bears went into the hands of a receiver two months ago. This receiver has also been administering the affairs of the Stars. Lately, it is reported, he has refused to pay the ordinary bills incurred by the colored team and even some of the players are reported to be behind in their salary.
Players have been quitting the team for two or three weeks but Manager Harris made a valiant effort to get a backer to take over the team from its present owners, but without success. Of the players who were left when the team finally disbanded, the Lincoln's got Tom Gee, Giseman and will probably get one or two others. The Royals and other teams in the League will absorb the others.

Terrific Slugging of Lincolns Brings Victory Over Crack Camdens
THE Lincoln Giants, continuing their terrific slugging, handed the crack Camden, N. J., Club a double drubbing before a large crowd at the New York Catholic Protectory Oval on Sunday afternoon by scores of 9 to 1 and 12 to 11. In the first game Rube Chambers, the youthful southpaw, allowed the Jerseyites three scattered hits and fanned eight batters. The Lincolnns collected thirteen hits for a total of nine runs. Young leading with two doubles and a single. The Lincolnns sewed the game up as early as the third inning. In this frame Young, leading off, doubled and scored on Gisentner's single, Lloyd's two ply smash and Hudspeth's walk filled the sacks. Finlay singled, scoring Gisentner and Lloyd. Hudspeth going to third and scoring on R. Gee's sacrifice fly. The Lincolnns registered three more in the sixth on two doubles, a single and a sacrifice fly. The game was called at the end of the seventh by agreement.
The second game was a slugging match, the Lincoln's winning out in the ninth. Finlay walked as a starter and R. Gee bunted safely. T. Gee advanced both runners with a sacrifice. Lewis fanned; but Young singled solidly into center field, scoring Finlay with the winning run. The Bronx aggregation are averaging one or more Ruthian drives per game. Going into the sixth inning the Lincoln's were five runs in arrears. With the sacks loaded and two down, Lloyd drove a mighty wallop over the right field fence, clearing the sacks. Hudpeth doubled and scored on G. Johnson's single. Finlay walked and R. Gee's single scored Finlay with the tying run, making the count ten all. Gilmore was relied in the eighth by Gisentan, who held the Camden Club score-
De Hart. Hubbard
Hangs Up New Record
Before an audience of over ten thousand on the final day of the National A. A. U. Championships in Philadelphia. De Hart Hubbard, representing the new Century A. C. of this city, smashed the broad jump record Made by Sol Butler when he cleared 25 feet $^{2/3}$ inches. Butler's record, made in 1920, stood at 24 feet $^{2/3}$ inches. The showing of all the colored athletes in the champa should act as an incentive too others all over the country, especially the few representing the new Century A. C. Going to press early and lack of space prevent us from relaying a full account of Monday's performances of our boys in Philadelphia.

CORONA T.C.
CLUB VICTOR
The Corona Tennis Club of Corona, L. L. one of the associated members of the N. Y. Tennis Ass'n has been host to two of Harlem's Clubs at their grounds in Corona, L. L. in inter-club match games, taking both into camp. The Blue Bird first felt the sting of the Corona racket wielders on June 13, coming back to New York full of surprise. The Long islanders next tackled the Arrow. T. C., and when the smoke or battle had cleared away, Arrow was thankful for one victory out of five attempts. New Yorkers who are wont to believe that the good players are only in Harlem are rudely shocked when they travel to Corona, L. I. INSERT SIX (6) POINT.

ORIENTALS BEAT BUFFALO
ORIENTALS BEAT BUFFALO
New York Orientals defeated the Buffaloes in a splendidly played game at the Jasper Oval on Monday, July 5, to the tune of 6-4.
"Bill" Howell, the Oriental's star hurler, held his opponents to seven scattered hits and was helped nicely in the seventh inning, when Robinson, the Oriental left fielder, pulled a splendid catch with the bases full. The Oriental's again showed nice playing when Wilson and Percy made three beautiful doubles. In the ninth the game was saved when Carter of the Buffaloes sent a line drive over Percy's head and was recovered on the run by the Oriental's star center fielder, Sasso, and kept the trying and winning runs from scoring.

SALEM'S BOXERS KEEPING BUSY
Mickey McCann, of the Brooklyn Gas Co., punched his way to a decision over Canada Lee, of the Salem-Crescent A. C., in the 135-pound feature amateur bout at the Golden City Arena, Canarsie, last Friday night. McCann received the judges' verdict largely due to the fact that he managed to land several timely and effective blows which gave him a shade in each of three rounds. The other nine bouts on the card were also full of action and kept the capacity crowd on edge at all times.
George Stewart, another Salem-Crescent A. C., boxer, scored a technical knockout over Tom Coughlin of the 13th Regiment when the latter refused to come out for the fourth round. At the end of the third frame the judges voted a draw but Coughlin decided that he had enough and called quits. He left the ring amid a chorus of boos.
The fastest bolt was one of the 138-pound skirmishes between Meyer Shapiro, of Beecher's Club, and Charles Pellicane, of the White A. C. Shapiro won on a technical knockout at the end of the first round when Pellicane was unable to continue.
Stanley Cross, of the Trinity Club, was another to win by a technical kayo. Cross scored over Henry Commissol, of the Golden City A. C., after 48 seconds of their clash in the 118-pound division when after being dropped with a hard right to jaw, Commissol started to get up, then crouched down again only to have one of his seconds touch him and tell him to arise, thereby disqualifying him.
The only real clean knockout was scored by Johnny Murphy of the Yaeger Gymnasium, who floored Thomas Thomas, of the Salem-Crescent A. C., with a right uppercut to the chin after 56 seconds of the first round. The summary: 110-Pound Class—Terry Roth, Edward Gymnasium, defeated Joe Tumme-Salem-Crescent Club, judges' decision, four rounds. 112-Pound Class—Joe Ferdinand, Salem-Crescent A. C., defeated Danny Tumme, House, judges' decision, three rounds. 118-Pound Class—Stanley Cross, Trinity Club, knocked out Henry Compton, House, C. second round, Time, 48 seconds.

CRESCENT MAN LOSES BOUT
After being floored twice in the first two rounds, Jimmy Burns, 116 pounder from the Long Island K. of C., came back strong in the third and final session and knocked out Joe Goldberg, of Beecher's Club. The bout was one of a series of amateur contests held last Thursday night by the Bushwick Club at Dexter Park. Goldberg seemed too clever for LAME BACK OMIN IF YOUR GLANDS ARE WEAK YOU SUFFER FROM A LAME BACK. INVENEES STRENGTH

Louis Casansky, deaf mute from Seward's Gym, scored a close victory over Joe Seinanor, colored lad representing the Salem-Crescent, in a sizzling three-round. This tussle was fast throughout, the harder punching of the deaf and dumb ladd gaining him the decision. The summary:

WHITE WANTS TO RETURN
Charles Fred. White of the Philadelphia State Athletic Commission has started training for a comeback in track athletics, after practically fourteen years out of running competition. Mr. White thinks he is one of the fastest dash men of his age in the country, and he intends to challenge all the fifty-year-olds to race against him in a 60 yard or one hundred yard dash on his fifteenth birthday, August 5, 1926.
While studying law at the U. of P., where he graduated in 1912, White was a star member of the track teams and made quite a reputation as a runner.
After trying out last Sunday and Monday Commissioner White feels that he is as fast on his feet now as when he last competed for the University, and that all he needs is to harden himself a little to improve his endurance.
In 1910, at Young's Pier, Atlantic City, N. J., at the age of 34, equalled the world's record of 5 1-5 second for the 50 yard dash when he won the Middle Atlantic States A. A. U. Championship in that event and he desires to see how near he can come to that mark now. He feels confident that he can do close to 6 seconds for the distance which will be going some for an old young man.
In the recent baseball contest at Orange playgrounds, St. Philip's Colored Giants of Newark, N. J., outplayed the Orange A. C. to the tune of 6-5. Lumpkins and Gordon were the batteries.

Tom Anderson Returns to Scenes of His Early Athletic Conquests
Tom Anderson Returns to Scenes of His Early Athletic Conquests
Gus Moore Makes Ashton Set New Record to Win
And Reviews the Past of Our Clubs and Athletes in Dear Old Gotham
EDITOR'S XOTE--Mr. Anderson, a former athletic star of the St. Christopher Athletic Club and a special contributor to our columns in the past, is at present principal of the John Adams School and recently returned here to take a summer course at Columbia University.
ALTHOUGH I confess that the writer was not altogether unconscious, as was Rip Van Winkle during the interim of his long absence, nevertheless it seems to me that a sudden metamorphosis has seized this old knickerbocker village since the days when Jeff Wetzler was the wizard of basketball and Roy Morse the crowned sprint sovereign of the amateur empire. I recall, unless, like Rip, I be dreaming, that in those good, old days this neck of the Manhattan woodlands was the acknowledged center of the athletic universe. Over in the lily-white territories below 130th street, the Morningside and Glencoe Athletic Club were graduating champions at a prodigious rate of speed. Archie Walker, Homer Baker, Frank Conway, Eddie Plank were conjuring headlines from the metropolitan news hunters in approved a la "Babe" Ruth fashion.
Further up the boulevard—to be exact, in the sundown belt, which was on the verge of giving to the world that great prophet, Marcus Garvey, the Alpha Physical Culture Club, the Spartan A. C., and the St. Christopher Club were making their presence felt in the athletic firmament in no uncertain manner. Salem-Crescent A. C. had the brazen effrontery to snatch a senior metropolitan championship in broad daylight. St. C. walked off with several local titles in boxing and a national cross-country championship. The century plant has not budded again since those golden days when amateur sports were in flower; when Wilbur Cohen, Denny Ponteau, Larry Estridge
SIX new title records were established in the junior track and field championships at the Municipal Stadium in Philadelphia last Saturday afternoon. With ideal weather and a lightning fast track, the athletes shattered marks right and left, one that had stood from 1907 being broken. The Newark A. C. gained the team championship by scoring a total of 31 points, while the New York A. C. was second with 21 tallies. Newark's surprising strength in the low hurdles turned the title in favor of the Jersey team. Outstanding in the record-creating feats was the wonderful half-mile run by Pincus Sober, City College runner, representing, the Holy Name Club. Sober covered the 800 yards in 1:54 4-5, erasing the 19-year-old mark of 1:56 2-5, held by Sheehan of Boston.
Another great feat was the vaulting of Glenn Graham, member of the last Olympic team and a representative of California Tech, who cleared the bar at 13 feet 2% inches. By doing this he not only bettered the junior championship mark, but erased the senior vault record also.
The running hop, step and jump saw another new mark created when Levi Cason, of Los Angeles, cleared 47 feet 11% inches. Then his teammate, Ed Moeller, heaved the discus 145 feet 7% inches, beating one of Bud Houser's records.
Creath B. Hiner, of the Chicago A. A., broke the junior javelin record when he heaved the spear 196 feet. the old mark being 180 feet 6% inches, made by L. N. Prester, Mississippi M. and E. College, in 1923.
Gus Moore, sensational colored runner from Boys' High School, representing the Century A. C. of New York, was beaten by George Ashton, of the Pittsburgh A. C. in a thrilling mile duel. Although beaten by a stride, Moore forced Ashton to cover the distance in 4:23 L-5, a new national junior record.
Michael Pecora, Hazelton Y. M. C. A., in winning the three-mile walk, also set up a new record of 23:16 3-5, the old mark being 23 minutes 21 3-5 seconds, made by Mac Wels of Long Island City, two years ago. The Hazelton walker had ten yards to spare over Michael Fekete, of the Los Angeles A. C. A., after finishing third, M Davis, of the New York Y. M. H. A. collapsed and had to be led to the dressing room. Another record fell in the discus when Ed Moeller, of the Los Angeles A. C., won with a heave of 145 feet 7½ inches, the old mark
were headliners among the simon pures. Then it was that Fats Jenkins, George Fial, the Capers brothers, Slocum, and Douglas forced their way into the sporting pages of The Amsterdam News for the first time. Dean Lucy D. Slowe and Tally Holmes strided the tennis world like the Colossus of Rhodes. Pappy Ricks, Dash, Gilmore and others, having reached the nth degree of perfection, were setting forth to the benighted areas to carry the glad tidings of basketball to the dark subjects scattered throughout your Uncle Samuel's hinterlands; Cliff Michell had placed in the Olympic Marathon trials. Father Time had counted out the veteran Marathoner, Aaron Morris.
Billy Madden, the little Napoleon, alided and abetted by the eagle-eyed professional promoters, was making his last charge against the strongly intreached amateur breastworks. However, the afore-said promoters were preparing their Big Bertha, which was destined to raise havoc in the "exercise for love" ranks a little later.
In the money-grabbing division Harry Wills was knocking loudly at the front door of Mr. Dempsey's championship villa, where he is still encamped and, methink, will be until Father Time cuts him down. The turnstiles at the old Lincoln Glants' park on Fifth avenue groaned under the weight of the cash customers every Sunday afternoon. Tex Ricard, the new manager of the Garden' A. C., was handing out a great line of chatter anent equality, etc., etc. Then, as now, Eddie McMahon was the candy kid of Harlem.
From all this the young reader will assume that your scribe is a grizzle breaded old hasheen—a devoted worshipper of the past and an unappreciative critic of the efforts made by the generation of today; all of which may or may not be correct. However, before making a final estimate, I crave time to regain my land legs and to visit the various athletic centers of gravity.
(To Be Continued.)
being 126 feet 114 inches, made by Clarence "Bud" Houser in 1921. Wellington Charles, Newark A. C., who finished second, also broke the record with a throw of 142 feet 412 inches. Flashing a remarkable finish, Ray Robertson, of the Boston A. A., won the 440 yards run final by five yards from his teammate. F. A. Burns, with Roland Bellis, N. Y. A. C., third, and Joseph Campbell, N. Y. A. C., fourth. Robertson did the quarter in the good time of 49 45 seconds. Emerson Spencer, of the Olympic Club of San Francisco, won the 440-yards hurdles race, beating George Meyers, of Washington State College, by several yards in 56 seconds, with Reich, Newark A. C., third.
In a thrilling 120 yards hurdles final Charles Drew, Century A. C., of New York, beat Harry Flippin, Newark A. C., by a few inches in 15 2-5 seconds. It was almost a dead heat. E. M. Wells, Dartmouth lad, representing Boston A. A., was third and George Stollwerck, Newark A. C., fourth.
Stick Ball Boys to Start Series on July 12
July 12 will mark the opening of the Harlem block stick balt championship series between the eight teams which have been playing in the Stick Ball League since the first of June. A great deal of interest is being manifested in this series due to the generosity of Mr. Bill (Bolangles) Robinson, who donated the silver loving cups to be presented the winning teams just before sailing for Europe, where he is to fill important theatrical engagements in the principal cities across the pond. Mr. Frederick Townsend, physical director of the Y. M. C. A., is the senior advisor to this enterprising league of stick ballers.

DYETT PUTS UP A GAME FIGHT
DYETT PUTS UP A GAME FIGHT
Every phase of entertainment, from drama to burlesque, was provided for the fans at the amateur boxing show at Steeplechase Park, Rockaway Beach, last Tuesday night.
The drama was provided in the final mill of the show between John Luzzo, of Newark Prep, and Jimmy Dyett, of the Salem-Crescent A. C., with Luzzo getting the verdict at the end of three hectic frames. The pair started in whirlwind fashion and were swapping punches during the greater part of the opening frame. With eight seconds of the first round to go Luzzo sent a left hook to Dyett's chin that put the latter out cold. It took almost the entire rest period of a minute to bring the Harlem battler around.
Dyett staggered out gamely to face Luzzo in the second, and was met with an avalanche of wildly swung rights and lefts. Luzzo landed a light left to Dyett's chin, and the latter seemed to be revived by the blow. The pair were mixing furiously at the bell. The third round was a three-minute reproduction of what had closed the second frame. There was not a second in which the pair did not fly away at each other and during a melee Dyett almost had his conqueror on the verge of a knock-out.
The funniest thing, ever, staged in any ring was the extra round affair, between Benny Hollander, of the Clark House and Johnny Cohn of Seward Gym. It was not any fault of Hollander's that it turned out to be a burlesque. Hollander tried to make a fight of it, but could not get within three feet of Cohn, who insisted, on dancing around in a circle during every minute of every round.
The summary:
The summary — Oscar Goldman, Seward Gym, defeated Andy Gump Mason, Newark Prep, three rounds, decision. Dave Berg, Seward Gym, knocked out George Singer, third round. Joe Siedeman, Seward Gym, knocked out Clyde Young, Star Box Academy, first round. Len Hollander, Clark House, knocked out Seward Gym, four rounds, decision.

TED ROOSEVELT AS THE REFEREE
TED ROOSEVELT AS THE REFEREE
The biggest set of boxing events ever held at Mitchell Field will take place Wednesday night. It will be held by Teddy Roosevelt, former Assistant Secretary of Navy, who will referee all the bouts. The program of bouts will be for the maintenance of the Soldiers' and Sailors' clubhouse, 261 Madison avenue, Manhattan. Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, widow of former President Roosevelt, is chairman of the committee.
The card is of the triple event kind, with Jackey Adnet of the 14th
New York Infantry Regiment, fighting Milton Jampole, of the 102nd Medical Regiment, for the lightweight championship of the New York National Guard. The second eight brings together the colored welterweight champion, Sailor Darden, and the All-Service middleweight champion, Billy Ptoomey. The final shot introduces two of the world's leading featherweights. Al Foreman, All-Service featherweight champion, opposes Izzy Cooper.
LLOYD SUSPENDS ORVILLE SINGER
Manager John Henry Lloyd, of the Lincoln Giants, handed Orville Singer an indefinite suspension last week because of Singer's refusal to take orders. All this season he has had trouble in making Singer report for practice. During the past week Singer not only refused to report for practice as ordered but was also absent from a game without an excuse. When he finally showed up Lloyd—asked-for-an-explanation and the suspension followed. Gisentaner, formerly of the Newark Stars, played the Lincoln right field in Singer's place on Sunday.

"Magnolia," Latest Musical Comedy, to Open at Beautiful Mansfield Theatre
Eddie Hunter Featured Star in New Production Opening Monday Night
Theatre goers longing for a real honest-to-goodness musical comedy written, staged and produced by colored men will hail with joy the announcement of the opening of 'My Magnolia' at the beautiful Maestro Fieldstone on 4th street west of Broadway the coming Monday night.
Not since the successful run of "Shuffle Along" has a musical comedy come upon the theatrical horizon with so much promise of the entertainment qualities which we had been trained to expect from three days when Williams and Walker, Ernest Hogan and the rest of that brilliant brigade now gone to their last rest furnished the best in Europe and America.
"My Magnolia" is written by Alex Rogers, with collaboration by Eddie Hunter and music by C. Luckeyce Roberts. Hunter is the bright, particular star of the piece and those who have seen this young comedian in the past can readily appreciate the possibilities of this new show with Hunter holding down the particular spot.
Mr. Rogers is known to the theatre-goers all over the country, having successfully contributed a vital part to the splendid productions of the Williams and Walker shows. In later years he was associated with J. Leubrie Hill and while few are aware of it, the same Rogers has been unusually successful in writ-

stars on the American stage.
C. Luckeyth Roberts, who has been associated with Rogers for the past few years, is considered one of the most brilliant among the younger generation of writers. In conjunction with Rogers he wrote the music for "Go-Go" and a number of other white productions, and more recently he has been setting high society by the ears through his playing and composi-
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 7, 1926
We make bold to say that "My Magnolia" will open with one of the best singing aggregations of chorites ever assembled, and the cast discloses many names familiar to lovers of the best along entainment lines. The dances are arranged by Charles Davis. The cast that will support Hunter includes Dink Stewart, Barrington Carter, Paul Bass, Percy Colston, George Randol, Lionel Monagas, Charles Davis, Lena Sanford Roberts, Alberta Perkins, Hilda Rogers, Adelaide Hall, Mabel Gant, Catherine Parker, Estelle Floyd, Claude Lawson, Alex Rogers and C. Luckerth Roberts.
As we have pointed out in a preceding paragraph, "My Magnolia" gives promise of the best along musical comedy lines we have had in years. There will be "thirty magnolia blossoms" in the chorus, the "feather-foot dancing bell hops, to say nothing of Luckey Roberts and his society orchestra which brought him front page space in the dailies all over the country not so very long ago. The Mansfield Theatre is one of the new houses recently opened here, and in appointments surpasses the majority of the theatres in the White Light District where it is located. It is said that the house was built at a cost of over a million dollars and even a casual survey will readily bear this out. Prices of admission will be within the reach of all and after the grand opening there will be no excuse for falling to see this latest offering in the theatrical world.
Lon Chaney in "Outside the Law" on July 10
Popular Screen Star Will Be Seen at His Best at the Roosevelt Theatre
As "Black Mike" in Todd Brownings' great crook melodrama, "Outside the Law," a Universal-Jewel Production which comes July 10 to the Roosevelt Theatre, Lon Cheney brought forth the plaudits of the multitude and gasps of admiration from the critics a few years ago. Interest has been reawakened in the marvelous dual role enacted by Chaney in this picture, for he also played the part of a Chinaman with almost unbelievable fidelity. In response to a growing public demand the producer has made new prints of "Outside the Law," inspired by the tremendous success of the film when shown in Pittsburgh a short time ago. Priscilla Dean is the star of this production. Chaney, in the featured role, is supported by Ralph Lewis, Wheeler Oakman. E. Warren, Stanley Goethals, Melbourne MacDowell and Wilton Taylor.
A Masterful Stroke of Realism Is This Screen Sensation Coming to Harlem
It will be a joy to the war mothers and war brides who see "The (Unknown Soldier) at the Douglas Theatre next Saturday, Sunday and Monday as, smiling through their tears, they glory in the greatness and the beauty of the theme and motif of this splendid story.

jo dispissus umoung uall. o America than this graphic and impelling screen version of his greatness. Only a director with the artist's touch could handle so delicate a theme, and Renaud Hoffman, who directed the production, has done excellent work.
"The Unknown Soldier" is a masterful stroke of realism embellished by a touch of the spiritual which reaches a compelling climax with the triumph of love over death.
The hero of this great war drama is Charles Emmett Mack and the leading woman is Marguerite De La Motte. Ethel Wales plays the poignant part of "mother" of "The Unknown Soldier" and Henry B. Walthall is the rich old father-in-law who opposes his daughter's love for the heroic soldier lad. Three comic doughbys, played by Syd Crossley, Jess Devorska, and George Cooper, keep the audience alternating between laughs and tears.

Gloria Swanson at New Lincoln Theatre Thursday
Some years ago Chester Conklin and Gloria Swanson played together in a Mack Sennett comedy under the direction of Clarence Badger. Though none of the three knew it at the time, that opus marked their last appearance together under the comedy king's banner. Thereafter, though the players and Mr. Badger continued in their chosen work, the trio's paths did not again converge.
History tells us that Gloria Swanson became a featured player in Paramount productions and subsequently a star in her own right. Chester Conklin stayed with Sennett for a time; later made two reel laugh hits for another producer; and eventually he too graduated from short subjects to feature films, appearing in "Greed" Pola Negrit's "A Woman of the World," and Marshall Neillan's "The Great Love." Badger is now a Paramount director.
It was not until Conklin came

to New York for his first eastern-made picture that he was enabled to renew earlier associations. Director Malcolm St. Clair liked his work so much in "A Woman of the World," that he cast him for a featured role in Adolphe Menjou's latest starring vehicle, "A Social Celebrity," which was produced at the Long Island studio. There he found his former fellow player, Gloria Swanson. And over the luncheon table the two enjoyed a perfect orgy of "Remember whens"
"A Social Celebrity," which comes to the Lincoln Thursday, finds Conklin playing the part of an old barber in a little village. Mr. Menjou is seen as his son. The cast also includes Louise Brooks.

Irvin Miller's 'Brown Skin' Models Here Next Week
Believing in the Glorification of the Browns, Miller Will Let Harlem Enjoy an Eyeful
Irvin C. Miller's "Brown Skin Models" will take possession of the Lafayette next week and advance rumor says that the show is such a wow Miller will listen to nothing but standing room every afternoon and evening after the first performance.
The well known producer is bringing many well known performers to help him round out what he says will be entertainment of the unusual variety, and from the manner in which he has been gracing Seventh avenue with his presence the past few weeks, we have every reason to believe that he will meet with his usual success.
We forgot to ask Miller if he will insist upon the ghost being an integral part of his show, but we missed him the last time the thought came to us. Whether or not, we do believe that we'll have to give the models the once over, superinduced by their glorification in a pamphlet which Miller can rest assured will draw even the most exacting to the theatre.
Harper's Revue at the New Lincoln Theatre
The Bunch From Ciro's Are Putting Over Their Stuff With Vim and Dash This Week
Having the space, it is a pleasure to give the revues at the New Lincoln Theatre the once over at least once a week. It was at this house that entertainment of this kind first had its start and encouragement, for when the big musical comedies went into the Lafayette the tabs held sway at the smaller house.
This week Leonard Harper's Ciro Revue is the big offering and, in conjunction with the picture features taken care of in another part of today's paper, the inducement for visiting the Lincoln is complete.
It is the intention of Manager Raymond Snyder to maintain a policy of high class pictures and big revues at his house, supplementing this with a series of vaudeville features which will add to the attractiveness of his programs when revues are not available. Commencing this week we are going to strive to give a little more attention to the house presided over by Mrs. Downs and her ever courteous assistants.
Renaissance, Lincoln, Franklin and Leafyette from early afternoon, and many "fans" were forced to stand in line, with little hope of gaining admission.

William H. Seward, whom all

even more emphatically: " “The

MAGAZINE SECTION THIRD SECTION
JAMES WELDON JOHNSON
WHEN I wrote an essay on the Negro's Creative Genius as a preface to "The Book of American Negro Poetry," I made what was, perhaps, a startling statement by saying that the Negro was the creator of the only things artistic that have yet sprung from the soil and
A. B. B.
versally acknowledged as distinctive American products. That was five years ago. Today the statement would not appear so startling, for since it was made the acknowledgment has widened with surprising rapidity that as a creator of American folk-art the Negro stands unapproached. These folk contributions of the Negro may be grouped under four heads: religious songs, folk tales, dancing, and secular music. To these might be added Negro humor, for the humor of the Negro has not only permeated his folk tales, his dancing and secular music, but constitutes a distinct influence in American life, an influence that is felt especially on the stage and, to some degree, even in literature. It has furnished a great many of the catch words and phrases that have been seized upon and made current. Curious it is to note the varying degrees in which recognition of these contributions to our common culture has been accorded to the Negro. For more than a century the Negro had been singing his Spirituals before their beauty and significance were recognized. For a still longer period the "ole folks" had been telling the plantation stories to the children of the South, both black and white, before Joel Chandler Harris collected the tales under the title of "Uncle Remus Stories" and made them a permanent part of American literature. The Negro was extremely fortunate in having as his amanuenses persons who, in addition to their other qualifications, were honest. The Spirituals were first collected and set down by white Northerners who came in contact with the Negroes of the South during or immediately after the Civil War. These collectors might have omitted to make the exclusive Negro origin of the songs a part of the record, and so the task might have devolved some day upon the Negro to establish his title as their sole creator. The plantation stories were collected and set down by a Southern white man who, had he failed to tell specifically where he got the tales and about their creators, might in time have been passed as an original and imaginative author, influenced by Negro life. The record in the case of the Spirituals and the plantation stories is now written and fully established.
Regarding his other contributions the Negro has not been so lucky. Dancing, so far as it is a native art in America, has been dominated almost absolutely by Negro influence. For generations "buck and wing," and "stop time" dances, which are strictly Negro, have been familiar to American theatre audiences. A decade or so ago the public discovered the "turkey trot," the "eagle rock," "ballin' the Jack,"

and several other varieties that started the modern dance craze. The "tango," which quickly followed and became so popular, was originated by the Negroes of Cuba and later transplanted to South America. But professional exponents who exploited or drew upon Negro dances did not stop to explain the fact, nor could they reasonably be expected to do so. I know of but one exception, Mr. Vernon Castle, perhaps the most noted, and, by the way, an Englishman, who never danced except to the music of a colored band and never failed to state to his audiences that most of his dances had long been done by "your colored people," as he put it. And so the Negro has received only scant credit for his contribution of dancing; indeed, in great part, the credit has been deliberately taken from him. Note that during the past season a number of white vaudeville performers and teachers of dancing advertised themselves widely as "originators" of the world-circling "Charleston."
Something of the same thing has happened with regard to Negro secular music. The early black-face minstrels simply took such Negro songs as they wished and used them. The first of the so-called Rag-time songs to be published were set down by white men who affixed their own names as the composers. In fact, before the Negro succeeded in fully establishing his title as creator of his secular music the form was taken away from him and made national instead of racial. It has been developed into the distinct musical idiom by which America expresses itself popularly and by which it is best known. For a while it was absolutely divorced from the Negro; and there was much publicity discussion as to which of the white jazz band leaders was entitled to the credit of originating the instrumental form. But the tide has set in the other way. The record with regard to Negro secular music is now being written, and may some day be as firmly established as it is in the case of the Spirituals and the plantation stories.
The latest phase in the development of Negro secular music is the blues. The distinctive characteristic (the "blue" note) of this newest form of Negro song has been exploited on Broadway for the past ten years, but the investigation and study devoted to the origin and development of the blues have been scant. In the preface referred to above I called attention to the importance of the blues as folksongs. Within the past two years serious efforts at collecting and appraising the words of these songs have been made by Miss Dorothy Scarborough and Mesars. Odum and Johnson. Mr. Carl Van Vechten gave a more analytical treatment of the subject and a more serious appreciation of these songs in a series of articles on
NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 7, 1926
blues and singers of blues. And now comes a most valuable collection with words and music edited by W. C. Handy and an introduction written by Abbe Niles. In this volume Mr. Handy has taken the first step to do for Negro secular music what has been done quite fully for the Spirituals and the plantation stories. He has brought together some fifty-odd examples arranged for voice and piano. There is, perhaps, no one who could have performed this task so well as Mr. Handy. He is a capable musician, and the very first musician to recognize the significance of the blues as music. It is fortunate, too, that he was located in the region along the lower Mississippi, where the blues had their origin and when they began to be widely sung. In 1912 Mr. Handy published the famous "Memphis Blues," which started a musical mode in Tinpan Alley and on Broadway. He continued writing down his lines from his memory of how Negroes had sung them; he revised the original words (for in many instances they could not be used), or adapted new words, and published a series of blues of every denomination. The arrangements in the present volume are well done. They represent as closely, perhaps, as our present system of notation permits, the characteristic quality of the blues. These arrangements will offer some difficulties to the mediocre pianist, but they ought to prove exceedingly interesting to the musician. Besides the arrangements by Mr. Handy, there are included those by several other Negro musicians. There are also excerpts from music done in the "blue" mode by John Alden Carpenter, George Gershwin and Jerome Kern. The songs in the volume lie close to the folk music and folk lines, but it is to be regretted that there are not more examples of the true, undiluted folk blues, and that it was not possible to include the "Memphis Blues."
Mr. Niles has written an interesting and informing introduction under six heads: The Folk-Blues as Verse, The Folk-Blues as Music, The Modern Blues, Adoption and Influence of the Blues, The Pioneers, and a Sketch of W. C. Handy. Mr. Niles devotes considerable space to technical discussion of the music and the form. The original folk-blues, however, interesting as they are musically, are still more interesting as verse. Mr. Niles sagely observes, "What has caught the attention of white song writers who were indifferent to the musical devices by which it was expressed—is an unconscious philosophy between the lines of making a little mirth of one's troubles while one dwells on them; of choosing, as the reaction to disaster, laughter instead of tears." Again Mr. Niles says, "A Spiritual is a matter for choral treatment; a blues was a one-man affair." In this rather awkward phrase Mr. Niles gets down to the essence of the blues, to their raison d'etre. The blues are primarily the philosophical expression of the individual contemplating his situation in relation to the conditions surrounding him. Most often they are the lament of a lover who is feeling "blue." Many of the lines contain real flashes of primitive poetry. It is for these reasons that

LIKE a gigantic shaft rising high into the sky of American commerce, at 640 N. West street, this city stands the plant and home offices of the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, a worthy monument, as it were, to the genius and acumen of its founder, the late Madam C. J. Walker, whose demise some seven years ago caused a race to mourn and a nation to recognize its loss. Here, in quarters noted for their modesty, is operated one of the outstanding achievements of the Negro in converting raw materials into a finished product. To the casual passerby, just another unimportant building dotting the gray and smoggy skyline. But to "those who know," the Madam C. J. Walker Company, gigantic, generous, friend to womankind. One is reminded that "fine clothes don't always make the man." Because it appears here has been solved the query of every business man, how best to operate a business profitably with small overhead.
But then upon going inside the Walker plant, one learns that several buildings are now required to house the increasing business of the company, that more space is needed and that before long, a beautiful, costly edifice containing many modern features of office and factory building will be erected not far distant from the present plant. This need for space, this continuous increase in demand for the preparations they manufacture is the best evidence that since the passing of the founder the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company is still forging ahead. From a small unimportant business started in 1905, it has
the blues are interesting and valuable as verse.
For example; the line:

The same thought, slightly sophisticated, is found in the following stanza of Handy's "St. Louis Blues":

He'd make a cross-eyed woman go stone blin'

Is the Negro Actor Coming Into His Own?
"Literature Is a Mass Affair"
THAT which is despised today not infrequently becomes the rage of tomorrow. History is full of instances of the rejected stone becoming the head of the corner. Coal, on which our civilization marches, was at one time considered less valuable than stone, because wood was plentiful; sixty years ago oil running on one's land was considered a nuisance; during the time of Dickens and Harriett Martineau the United States was the butt of Europe's jokes. When Thomas Jefferson was president he offered a plot of ground in Washington free to any foreign government who would build an embassy on it, but so little was the young republic, now the most powerful and richest of nations, thought of, that no one accepted. Again and again, the despisers, like the sisters of Cinderella, have found history against them.
That the above is becoming increasingly true of the Negro is a commonplace. What we are going to discuss, rather, is the Negro in the dramatic field. For some time now the Negro has been on the stage. But how? Almost wholly as the man with the cap and bells. His mission is that of clown—to entertain with jest, and grimace, and play of feet—although the clown is usually the most human and nimble-witted one in the circus.
Bert Williams, and many other serious-minded Negroes, found themselves hemmed in this narrow pale, because the white man, tired of himself, and of his own people; wanted someone to make him laugh. The Negro could, and because he could he found himself stratified in the job, no matter what his aspirations or capabilities. Today that hasn't changed much. Once become identified with a certain role, and it sticks to you like the shirt of Nessus.
NOTICE that Langston Hughes expresses clearly what I myself think in regard to Negro literature. Literature is a mass affair; masters come only from those who sing of those closest to them instead of some people as far away as the angels.
I would not expect Bernard Shaw to be a great playwright of the Italian people; but the world does perceive in Shaw qualities that lift him to a high place among the British dramatists of his generation. He thinks and writes as a Briton of Irish descent and because of that he is a successful authority upon anything that is in his vein.
I am not in sympathy with the contempt that the "would - be - whites" seek to cast upon the lamented Dunbar. He loved and wrote infinitely well of the people, humble and full of common sense, that render the Negro a fixed part of American life. He was never ashamed of his color and he never bastardized his art for the sake of his propaganda. What is necessary for

(Protected by the K. N. F. Service)
The Negro jazz artist and entertainer is certainly an improvement on what was expected of his predecessor fifteen years ago. The idea of what the Negro is supposed to be has been slowly changing in the white man's mind.
And who is responsible for the change? Largely Negroes themselves. Charles Gilpin, in the "Emperor Jones," little as such a play was truthful to Negro life, created an epoch in a night. Then came Evelyn Preer and others with "Salome," which little as the public, white and black, was ready for it, showed again that human beings, even though having tinted skins, were capable of interpreting the subtle nuances of emotion. Paul Robeson in "All God's Chillun," kept the pot simmering, much also as that play again misrepresented the real truth.
The latest of these is "Lulu Belle," an almost wholly artificial thing, but which also may be regarded as a step toward better, things. Interest, once aroused, is like a fire; it is difficult to tell where it will stop.
Truth is triumphant. What is done in secret will some day be proclaimed from the house-tops. This is a natural law. The public is more and more demanding the truth about the Negro, and some day the full story will be told with the Negro himself the teller of it.
A few weeks ago in a Broadway theatre appeared a play called "Beyond Evil," written by David Thorne, a white man. It portrayed in part the story of a white woman who mortgaged her husband's property to came to Harlem to look up a Negro, knocking at his door, on the pretense of looking for someone else. She becomes his Lulu Belle for a month, but when the Negro learns of the rotten deal she has given the husband it leads to a quarrel and parting. Of course the play lasted

the Negro writers and poets to learn is what Dunbar very nearly knew—that the race problem is for prose and chiefly prose that is not creative. I would not expect an Amsterdam News editorial to wander among daisies and kiss golden stars and neither should I expect a poem by a Negro poet to discuss complexion or the pro and con of industrial education versus classical education or socialism as a cure for all Negro.ills. And in addition to that the same as I would not expect an Amsterdam News editorial to embrace the vices of white American journalism, I would not expect a Negro's poem to embrace the vices of the white race.
Harriet Monroe, a few years ago, wrote a slight poem of the lyrical nature in which a Negro woman of my own State street says, "What's white folks, anyhow?" Miss Monroe her-
but one night. The papers declared that New York had never before witnessed such a tempestuous premiere. Most of the audience hissed, but a goodly part cheered. I cite this as proof of the increasing attempt to get at the truth. Hitherto the lyncher has been able to get the forces of democracy and Christianity lined up almost wholly on his side because of his lies that all seeking of this sort was on one side.
The Negro in Europe with a favorable field, has already come into his own. While slavery was raging here Ira Aldridge was being the most famous of Othellos, and with white casts. In Paris, Benglia plays along with white actors the difficult role of Mephistopheles, in a sketch at the Folies-Bergere. And there are other instances.
But, in America the Negro will have to create his own opportunity. And how? By getting ready. Working toward a goal is the only step toward its realization. Negroes will have to begin writing their plays and training themselves, no matter how poor the prospect may be, such as is now being done by the Krigwa Little Negro Theatre. Then and not till then will the potential Booths, Mantells and Aldridges within the group come into their own. We must aim at something higher than merely getting applause and money for dancing and making others laugh, fine as that is, for the peculiar fact is, that while we love the man who makes us laugh, we both love and respect the man who touches the profound depths of our being, as is done in the drama.
The mind of the white race, like an over-tilled field, is losing its vigor and spontaneity, and it is ridiculous and contrary to history to assume that the Negro's vast mind of psychologic wealth will be permitted to go much longer unused.
self is not a believer in race or complexion as a standard for civilization and I agree heartily with that noble woman. Black is no more virtuous than white and white is no more virtuous than black.
I love Harlem and I love State street and I love the plantation Negro, but I love them too well to forsake them for foreign fields or to propagandize them into white people. True literature recognizes the soil and deals with nothing erotic or exotic. Homer has a Greek or combination of Greeks of the soil. Shakespeare was an Englishman of the soil. Homer sang Greek ballads, not delicate Persian songs; and Shakespeare sang lyrics such as any of the English peasants of his day sang.
Let schools of race problem propaganda keep their hands off of literature; because the more they middle with it the more they damn the good that they and all of us strive for in regard to the Negro. Instead let Negro literature rise of itself, no matter how slow it might be; because nothing except promises ever come in a second and endured more than a forty night.

soralist, as he laid down the clippers and picked up a pair of shears, which he began to click definitely preparatory to making inroads upon a three weeks' growth of scalp tentacles:
"This here town's the best town in the South; in fact, it's the 'New York' of Tennessee, 'septin' that colored people mustn't be too prominent in politics. I've lived here for thirty years; come from Mississippi and on here from Chattanooga.
"The white people here are fine; they'll help you do anything that's all right. It's our folks that's holding us back," snapped the barber, giving the chair a vigorous turn.
"The leaders down here are too spineless," he continued; "and whenever they do anything it's mostly for their own benefit."
"Well," I countered. "at least you have a good newspaper in this town, which undoubtedly moulds public opinion and informs the community of the activities which concern the people."
"No, no." replied the Tennesseean in haste. "It's no good; and the editor, he tries to 'hog up everything for himself."
"Well, you have good schools here, haven't you?" I inquired, searching faithfully for the silver lining of the barber's cloud.
"The schools would be all right," he admitted, "if we could only get some good teachers down here—some who were well trained and who would take an interest in children rather than themselves."
"I guess the doctors are doing well, aren't they?" I ventured, continuing my quest for a bit of optimism.
"There's one here who's fair," the wielder of the clippers and shears replied; "but the other four—well, I wouldn't have 'em if I was dying." "Do the lawyers have good practices?" I asked, gloomily, as a veritable last straw of hope for the barber's favorable opinion of Sunny Tennessee.
"Not on your life," replied he in quick response. "They're careless and no one trusts them. You see," he concluded as he began a 'straight-down' with a razor which he stepped vigorously, "when I come to this town I saw what was the matter with it. I organized the Flip Flop Society, the Bankers' & Brokers' Aid Society, and I prescribed new policies, for the Board of Education and the Kercham & Cheatem Lodge; but these people didn't have sense enough to take MY advice, and they knocked me instead of boosting me. So I've quit 'em; and I'm satisfied to keep to myself and run this barber shop, which is the very best colored shop in the city," he concluded, with a look of personified self-esteem.
And at least we had found why this world was all wrong in Tennessee; for we had met not a few similar types of genius in earlier days, and expect to meet not a few more in the future. "Back seat" drivers are by no means confined to automobiles.

Madam Walker's Work Goes On
(Continued from Page 17) ed it and all, is a fascinating, most interesting story and should be one of hope and inspiration to the youth of our race who may believe perseverance and hard work aren't the key to success. So secure has the position of this company founded by a lowly woman of lofty thoughts been made in the business life of this great nation, that it is no longer classed as a small manufacturer of toilets, but among the very leaders of America's best makers of preparations for the hair and skin.
Under the leadership of Madam A. Lella Walker, who inherited much of her mother's fortune and succeeded her as its president, the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company has greatly endearled itself to the race. Not only by having proved itself the largest single factor in improving the hair, and complexions of women, instilling personal pride in their general appearance, but by the large and numerous contributions in money to the work of racial uplift. Schools, colleges, churches, charitable and civic organizations have received contributions from the company; individuals have been and are being educated; families have been rescued from destitution and whole communities have felt the benefactions of the Walker company.
Though engaged in the cold, impersonal task of manufacturing and merchandising, this great company and its officials find time, and have the inclination to learn the problems of their own racial-group and to assist in solving them. For more than twenty years the name Madam C. J. Walker has stood for relief to woman-kind. Out of a desire to improve her own personal appearance did Madam Walker discover the first and leading preparation of its kind on the market today. Walker preparations now enjoy a wide sale among women of races outside her own.
It should not be forgotten that the Madam C. J. Walker Mfg. Co., through its president, Madam Lelia Walker, last year gave four ministers representing three of the largest church denominations a trip to Palestine with all necessary expenses paid and that this company is now conducting what to this writer is the most liberal and the most gigantic contest ever staged—a free trip around the world contest. Two hundred and eighty-five eminent men and women, representing the leading religious, fraternal, educational, civic and charitable organizations, entered the race hoping to win one of the coveted trips around the world. scholarships or one of twenty-one cash gratuities which will be given absolutely free to those candidates having the highest number of votes at the close of the contest. The winners of the trips around the world will visit fifty cities in fifteen different countries and will doubtless be the first time four persons of color in one party have made such a trip without cost to themselves.
Still another and greater reason for the reverence which our race should have for the lat-Madam C. J. Walker is her last will and testament which, aside from giving $96,000 to institutions and individuals of the race, provided that for all time to come two-thirds of the annual net earnings of the company which bears her name should be given to Negro charities.

LONG ISLAND is on the threshold of the greatest period of real estate activity that any section the world has ever known. During the last few years there have been real estate booms in California, the Middle West, Florida and the South Jersey seacoast. Invariably these booms flared for a few months, reached their peak and then died down, with conditions returning to subnormality. None of these sections has had the population to maintain boom times and boom prices for any long period of time. In the final analysis

**** POPULATION MAKES VALUES ****
We build and finance your home.Call day or evening. Select your lots. Few waterfront lots at $500 each.
It takes extensive and continued building to maintain and increase values. While other towns have had their booms and their slumps, their ups and downs, LONG ISLAND has forged ahead, steadily and surely, and acquired the greatest population of any in the world. Each year more new buildings are erected in New York than a dozen boom towns would construct in a decade. Operators throughout the country have finally awakened to the tremendous possibilities of this great metropolis from a real estate standpoint, and various towns adjacent to New York where large tracts of land can be had are now experiencing real estate booms. More acreage has changed hands on LONG ISLAND during the past three months than for the previous three years. Individual purchasers are buying lots all over LONG ISLAND with feverish haste. Carl Fisher is spending $20,000,000 on a super-development far out at Montauk Point. Vacant land in the vicinity of his project is bringing as much as $20,000 an acre.

Imagine owning a waterfront home, and imagine the investment possibilities of purchasing these lots. You won't have to wait long for this island of vacant land to be absorbed by the sea of buildings that now surround it on all sides.

THAT TO SECURE these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
PRUDENCE, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
BUT when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their security.
· THE ABOVE LINES, taken from the Declaration of Independence, were written one hundred and fifty years ago, but are as much alive today as when they were first penned; if not for all white people in America, certainly for the masses of Negroes. We still plead for Life and Liberty and the Happiness these should bring.
THE POWER EXERCISED by the Government should be derived from the consent of the governed, but when several millions of people are denied a voice in the Government of the nation, it should and will eventually nullify the power of the Government. This denial has brought in its train abuses and usurpations of all kinds.
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and on the very day on which the historic event was celebrated
EDITORIAL PAGE
throughout the Nation, it has been deemed necessary to present to the President of the United States a petition bearing the names of twenty-five thousand people, the plea of which is the abolition of segregation in the Government itself; last week saw the annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People convened in the city of Chicago, an organization which, if the United States practised all that it preaches in its Declaration of Independence, would have no right to exist. In the year 1926 it is still necessary that statistics be kept on the number of human beings deprived of their life without due process of law.
AND, YET, we have faith in the Declaration of Independence as an instrument of government. We believe that its tenets must and will prevail if the United States is to continue to exist as it exists today. Meanwhile, we suffer because of the continued efforts of many who go to make up the Government to bring us under absolute despotism. Our numbers prevent us from throwing around ourselves proper guards for our security.
TIME solves most problems and it will solve ours. Already there have grown up around us several groups of considerable consequence, who, like the Negro, are dissatisfied with the way the spirit of the Declaration and Constitution are carried out. These groups, without knowing it, are our allies and will some day combine with us in resisting the oppression and injustice from which we suffer.

How White Chicago Reacted to the N.A.A.C.P. Conference
DAILY NEWS
Statistically speaking, every tenth American is a Negro. It is important that the other nine-tenths of the population should know how their 10,500,000 fellow Americans are faring educationally, economically and physically. For the story of their advancement is marvelous.
On the occasion of the recent forty-fifth annual national convention at Baltimore of colorful Baptists—comprising 3,000,000 of the Negroes took occasion to declare the Manufactured Record took occasion to declare the Negroes and to present a report of Negro achievements. It made known that the accumulated wealth of Negroes had increased from $20,000,000 in 1886 to $1,500,000,000 in 1920. The Negro race supplies one-seventh of all the workers in the United States, including one-third of all iron and steel workers and one-tenth of all railroad workers. Negroes operate 1,500,000 farms, one-fourth of which they own. Anually nearly 900 Negroes receive the degrees of colleges and arts of success. Negroes with a schooling has so increased since emancipation that the percentage is higher than that for the general population.
Greater progress toward the solution of the race problem is being made in this country now than ever before. The basis of it is good-will, and good-will is built on respect. Certainly the Negro race deserves respect for its achievements and for the earnestness with which it is striving for further progress.
To know the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People meets in convention in Chicago. That admirable organization, which ably champions the rights of Negroes, teaches the sound doctrine that justice demanded and obtained is essential to the welfare of the race, Chicago, which has a large and progressive Negro element in its population, is glad to welcome the Association and to commend its useful and enlightened work.
THE EVENING POST
At the present moment the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is holding its seventeenth annual convention in Chicago, the colorful place, where, when requested authority and tradition, thus being dramatically followed by a meeting of people looking toward the future and to a new and fuller freedom.
The meetings are being held in the Pilgrim Baptist Church, 33d street and Indiana avenue, which is the conference headquarters, and in a number of other churches, with a mass meeting at Pilgrim Church this evening at 8 o'clock and another mass meeting in the Auditorium Theatre at 3 p. m. on Sunday.
The conference is of great importance from the point of view of what might in the larger sense be called "politics," but it is of great interest, too, from an artistic and literary point of view. The Negro now speaks with a new confidence as he looks upon such public and material achievements as the building up of Harlem. The great war has given him self-consciousness in another realm: he knows that in the most tragic of human group experiences he can sustain the role of hero. And from racial obscurity, from the situation of being regarded by white people as interesting but not important, to a position of great importance, indeed. For Countee Cullen and Langston Hughes in poetry, Walter White and Jean Toomer—to mention only two out of a number—in fiction, and the composers and editors of Negro music, have given us what virtually amounts to a new impetus in American art. Of course, old superstitions die hard; there will be possibly for new generations of people and this will be the Negro in the mass audience and a drawer of water—with some instinct as a singer drawn in to humanize him.
Just in point of fact, the Negro, like everyone else, is what he does. Let him keep up the pace of the business. He is the best of the quality of Mr. Culton's and Mr. Hughes' and his business man build up cities—and the pseudo-antro-
General Lee and Lynch Law
General Lee and Lynch Law
By R. B. ELEAZER
IT IS not commonly known that General Robert E. Lee, while president of Washington and Lee University, twice prevented threatened lynchings in Lexington, Va. the seat of the university. The stories are told in Riley's volume, "General Robert E. Lee After Appomattox," the one being a reminiscence by Prof. C. A. Graves of the university faculty, and the other by Judge D. Gardiner Tyler of Holderoff, Va., an alumnus of the institution. In brief, Prof. Graves' story is as follows: "In the spring of 1866, while I was a student at Washington College, a report reached the
It was in vain that the college and town authorities sought to calm the frenzied mob and induce them to turn over the Negro to the officers of the law. Just then General Lee appeared. Immediately the tumult was hushed, and the General, standing in the midst of the excited throng, simply said: 'Young gentlemen, let the law take its course.' The quiet words had the effect of a military order, and the Negro's life was saved."
Know New York State
In 1683 the first Popular Assembly was formed in New York State and passed the Charters of Liberties, granting religious freedom to all Christians and suffrage to all freeholders.
The Empire State has 59 cities, of which six have more than 100,000, and 16 more than 25,000 inhabitants. The average density of population in the State is 218 per square mile. In 1900 it was 152.
New York State, with 11,000,000 people, last year consumed 10,000,000,000 kilowatt hours of electric current. This is more than was consumed in all of Great Britain, with four times as many inhabitants.
The breadth of New York State last year was $20.38 per capita. The total revenue receipts for 1925 were $16.15 per capita.
More than 250,000,000 cubic feet of manufactured gas are constantly kept in the tanks of Empire State gas utilities to assure an uninterrupted supply. These tanks represent an investment of about $35,000,000.
Of 2,786,112 foreign-born inhabitants of the State, Italians and Russians outnumber all others, with 550,000 and 520,000 respectively. Germans are third with 900,000 and Irish fourth with 265,000.
It was 1643, when New York State had but 500 white inhabitants, it was almost as cosmopolitan as today. Father Joues, a priest of that time, records that 18 tongues were spoken and that more than 10 religions were represented.

Six Months of Lunching
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
And all white men of good-will ought to rejoice in the progress of the Negro and over the fact that it is made by the Negro and not through the tutelage of the whites. For no man of good-will would choose to live in the Negro and contains that for the himself is impoverished thereby. Whatever be our theories as to how it is to be brought about, Kant's ideal of human society is still the only ideal, a kingdom of autonomous persons, no one of whom may be used as a means for the ends of others, but each one of whom is sovereign, an end in himself, worth while for his own sake. that kingdom can only be brought about by rational self-assertion; it cannot be handed down from a group to another group as a gift.
"In the spring of 1866, while I was a student at Washington College, a report reached the campus that an attempt was being made to force the jail in order to lynch a horse thief named Jonathan Hughes, who, in the troubled times after the war, had been plying his vocation in the neighborhood of Lexington. . . . When I reached the courthouse yard, within which stood the jail, when Fritz Clemens conspired it, filled with a crowd of men who had ridden in from the country to take the law into their own hands. At the top of the jail steps, in front of the locked-door stood the old jailer, Thomas L. Perry, holding the jail keys high above his head, and resolute aspect, the would-be lynchers who surrounded him.
"I was not at first aware of the presence of General Lee. But there he was (having evidently preceded me), moving quietly about among the crowd, addressing a few words to each group as he passed, begging them to let the law take care of them, and being required for some time and its indelibly impressed on my memory. The end was there. Those stern Scotch-Irishmen, whose tenacity of purpose is providential, abandoned their enterprise, remounted their horses and rode out of town. They could not do a deed of lawless violence in the presence of "Mars Robert," whose standard they had followed on many a battlefield. It may be that the enemy overruled Hughes was duly brought to trial for horse stealing, and on April 20, 1866, was convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary for 18 years."
Judge Tyler tells as follows of a similar incident which took place during his first year at Washington and Lee: "A very popular young student, a son of Judge Brockenbrough, professor of law, got into a difficulty with a Negro and was badly shot. His life was deafed of. As soon as the news of the assault reached the college of 40 students, the police of the boy at their head, searched for and captured the trembling wretch, and with a rope around his neck marched through the streets of the town to the courthouse square, with

Harlem Poorly Represented
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
In a recent issue of The Amsterdam News, I observed a news item headed "Harliem Favorably Represented in Graduating Classes in High Schools." In the writer's opinion it should have been "Harliem Poorly Represented in Graduating Classes in High Schools."
The article gave the number finishing from seven of the high schools. Among them were DeWitt Clinton, High School, boys, Wadleigh High School and Harriet Beescher Stowe Junior High, girls. The total number from the girls' high was not given, but the number of colored seemed to be a fair representation. However, the total number from DeWitt Clinton was given as 642; eight of this number were colored—a little more than 1 per cent.
The colored population of New York is estimated at 255,000 (was 155,000 in 1920 when the last census was taken). This number is 3.5 per cent of the total population. Yet we have a little more than 1 per cent of the number finishing high school. Are they favorably represented? By having small numbers we are not keeping pace intellectually with the other races. We are far from it.
Every condition has its cause. Some may say that such conditions are caused by the great struggle for existence in New York City. This struggle is keen, but despite this fact New York offers opportunities to ambitious youths; opportunities that are equaled by few, if at all, in any other city in America.
An individual of average ability can go from kindergarten through college without the cost of one cent to him or his parents.
Thousands of halftime jobs are obtainable by which any school boy can aid himself or his parents, if need be. Many students do work and keep up with their class work. If these can, why can't more?
In attempting to give a reason for some of the conditions in Harlem, the following may be given: the love of fine dress, craving for a big time, and lack of encouragement from many of the parents.
Harlem has the greatest concentration of Negroes in America. The world is looking to us to contribute largely to the progress of the American and religious progress of the Negro and of America.
If we are to do this, we must see that the number coming out of the high schools and colleges is increased. The future contributions are to come from these numbers. Awake, Harlemites, and take advantage of the opportunities your city offers you.

Density of Negro Population Studied
WASHINGTON. In 1920 the population of the United States averaged 35.5 inhabitants per square mile of territory. The Negro population averaged 3.5 persons for each of the 2,973,774 square miles that constitute the total land area of the United States. Leading all other areas was the District of Columbia, with a colored population of 1,832.7 persons per square mile, followed in the order named by States in which there are 10 or more colored inhabitants per square mile: South Carolina, 28.3; Maryland, 24.6; Georgia, 20.5; Mississippi, 25.1; Alabama, 21.4; Louisiana, 15.7; Delaware and Louisiana, 15.4 each, and Tennessee, 10.8.
In the Northern States New Jersey ranked in first place in the density of the colored population, with an average of 15.6 persons per square mile, followed by Pennsylvania, with 6.3, Ohio, with 4.6, York, Ohio, with 3.3, and Missouri, with 2.6 colored inhabitants per square mile. Since 1920, however, decreases in the South and increases in the North have followed as a result of the continued migration; and it is probable that Pennsylvania has now fewer, and fewer, are the only Northern States in which there are 10 or more colored inhabitants per square mile of land area.

WHEN Dewey steamed into Manila Bay in August, 1898. Aguinaldo, leader of the Filipinos in their revolution against Spanish rule, then in exile in Hongkong, said: "The Americans, not from mercenary motives, but for the sake of humanity and the lamentations of so many persecuted people, have considered it opportune to extend their protecting mantle to our beloved country." This book shows not only how completely Aguinaldo, but the American people, were fooled. On February of the following year Aguinaldo found that his army had conquered the Spanish forces only that the United States might rule his land autocratically. How the American people were taken in, how little they understood the commercial interests back of the war, how the war news was censored, all this and much more is shown in "The Conquest of the Philippines."
The conquest of the Philippines is one more tragedy of imperialism. But fortunately the story is not completed. There is a strong sentiment in this country favoring independence for the Filipinos. Every colored citizen, and everyone believing in the rights of people irrespective of color, should read this volume that humorously intelligently should the issue come before him. The story is told quietly, dispassionately, the most of its data taken from American sources.
How we turned our forces against the Filipinos who had recently fought our battles, how McKinley manipulated Congress, how brutal was our warfare, how we looted and tortured, and established re-concentration camps that were as bad as the Spaniards in Cuba, all this many will learn from this book for the first time. Lawton, who died fighting them, said of Filipinos: "These men are indomitable. Such men have a right to be heard. All they want is a little justice." But the people of the United States were not perilous to give them justice since their news was so secured that they never understood what was happening. To them it was a gorilla warfare, American soldiers against bandits.
More than half this book is concerned with conditions prior to the pacification of the islands. Of American rule the岛 is sacred, and we are given to our introduction of modern education, of health work, of the building of good roads, we also learn how much the Filipino had to pay. His taxes scoured the whole field of education intolerable to an American at home. Outside of Italy it would
Fisk President Well Received
Fisk President Well Received
NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 21.-Dr. Thomas Elsa Jones, the newly elected president of Fisk University, received a most cordial welcome from the students, alumni, faculty and friends. The alumni association passed resolutions endorsing him.
On several occasions Dr. Jones made informal talks. At the anniversary celebration of the alumni association he said: "One cannot retrain from expressing deep appreciation for the cordial welcome that I come to the house that I have been among you. I first felt this welcome in a little conference which I had in International House in New York in talking to Dr. Dubots. We had a long talk before Christmas. I felt it again in meeting in a conference Dr. Alexander Dr. Proctor and Dr. Jenkins. I met the Fisk Club in New York in February, and still again in Chicago. All of our visits with Fisk Clubs have increased this appreciation and now the climax of it all has been these two days here. I need not tell you that my heart has been moved. I need not tell you that my mind has not been had as to the advisability of becoming a Fiskite have been removed. You do not know me yet, but you are making me believe that you are taking me on faith. You will know me a little better a year from now. All that I am is here. All the experience that I have in the past and all that has been in my lay at the footstock of Fisk which I now love with my whole heart."
The enthusiasm and hope shown by all concerning the present and future of Fisk were very manifest. That Dr. Jones was favorably impressed with the school and looked forward with much confidence to the future is revealed by the
he hard to find so exacting a system. The planter was considered little, the American shipper much. But through all our greed and tyranny would come words such as these from Roosevelt: "No great civilized power has ever managed with such wisdom of discipline and business affairs of people committed by the accident of war into their hands."
It is with the principle of forcible annexation that Mr. Storey most concerns himself. He shows how brutally this took place and he argues convincingly that it should cease. If foreign capital goes there in increasing amounts, as it inevitably will, the Filipino should be independent and the capitalist should realize that it is upon the native government that he must depend for security. As for the protection of our navy and the army in case of war, the Filipino has not forgotten that when their peace was at last endangered during the world war orders were given to the American military and naval forces to leave the islands in the event of a threatened attack."
One cannot but ask the question, when thinking of Philippine independence, whether it would be any more real if America withdrew than it is the United States independent that are ruled by the United Fruit Company? Mr. Storey says: "The principles on which the American government was founded are eternal." But looking at the United States the West Indies and in the Pacific the Philippines, we believe that it today counts these principles as any more than a pretty phrase.
following remarks which he made at the commencement exercises while introducing Dr. Browne, the commencement speaker;
"Commencement exercises of Fisk University are exercises of victory and triumph. No one is overcome by difficulties until he thinks he is overcome. The greatest argument for the future success of Fisk University is that we have overcome, we have triumphed, that there is ahead of us great progress in our months. I have been trying to penetrate underneath my general feelings regarding the situation to see by careful analysis and cold intellect the actual factors entering into the future development of the university. Without setting forth these arguments point by point, but in trying to live them out in the months to come, let me say that there isn't any question that will take place that is desired for the institution in the hopes, wishes and dreams of the alumni, student body, faculty and friends. I have consecrated myself to the task."
