FATALLY WOUNDS MAN HE FINDS WITH WIFE
Mordecai W. John-
Johnson---University
President
THE sun is shining on
Howard hilltop, and its
radiant rays reflect the
memories of ardent Negro
Baptists, who well remember
Dr. C. T. Walker, who
preached the Gospel of
Christ from Augusta, Ga., to
West Fifty-third street, New
York City.
Ardent, religious white
people, in similar vein, will
remember Dr. Arthur Cushman McGiffert, who is probably the greatest theology student who ever lectured in the halls of Union Theological Seminary.
The reflections of these two Christian gentlemen are embodied in Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, of Charleston, West Virginia, to whom has been given the leadership of the race's greatest educational institution, Howard University. The stalwart Johnson, a youth in years, but a veteran in the experience of men and of things, and a counterpart of the goodness and greatness of Christian religion and education, is, to our humble mind, the greatest asset as a president, white or black, that Howard University could have hoped to have. Johnson is a believer in respect for personality. Johnson says: "When you insult the personality of any person you are insulting the personality of Jesus Christ." Johnson is a believer in the principles of collective bargaining, excepting that he does not believe that any collective group should bargain to the detriment of another group
This is the spirit of the policy which will save Howard University to itself. Subsidization, education, coalition, and the false "equations," as between racial groups mean nothing if Christian respect for personalities and unity are battling with each other as they have been in the past for recognition.
President Johnson has the vision, the hope, the ability, and the art to instill a spirit at Howard University which, despite the institution's tremendous past successes, has been without its gates.
The Eucharistic
Congress
EVERY now and then America is made to pause and reflect upon the more than twenty million Catholics who abide within its confines. Just a few days ago the Eucharistic Congress convened in Chicago and exemplified to America the faith and fealty which the Catholic Church has for itself. A potential one-fifth of the population of the United States still cleaves to the religion of St. Peter.
With peace, unity, forcefulness and cleavage as to the cause of Jesus Christ, the Catholic Church sets forth a program which does not yield to the commercialism of America or to group selfishness.
The Ku Klux Klan might well take note of the Eucharistic Congress, just adjourned, so that proofs of the strength of unity and the force of progression might permeate the thin-skinned brains of the Kluxers; but like he who could but would not see, the Klan will probably continue to bury its head in the sands of selfishness.

GREENWAY DECLINES TO TAKE POST AT LINCOLN UNIVERSITY
GREENWAY DECLINES TO TAKE POST AT LINCOLN UNIVERSITY
Stern Opposition of Alumni Believed Responsible Though Claim Is Made Tennesseean Declined Before Graduates Knew of It
The immediate and emphatic opposition of the Lincoln University Alumni Association is held to be responsible for the Rev. Walter B. Greenway's declining the presidency of Lincoln University.
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the University held on June 23 in the Witherspoon Building in Philadelphia, Rev. Greenway was elected president of Lincoln by a vote that was not unanimous. This selection did not become known to the alumni until June 30.
On that day, the Alumni Association, through its president, Dr. E. P. Roberts of New York City, and its secretary, William M. Ashby of Newark, sent the following telegram to Rev. Greenway:
"Rumor has it that the presidency of Lincoln University has been tendered you. If this be true, before accepting, it is only fair that you know all the facts you must face. You will meet the hostile opposition of the Lincoln University Alumni Association, the violent attacks of the Negro race, and the lack of support of many white friends of Negro education. We urge you for your own happiness, the best interest of Lincoln University and of the Negro race to decline this offer."
A copy of this telegram was also sent to John W. Liberton, secretary of the board of trustees, and

Dr. Campbell Wins Suit Wife Brought
Decision Handed Down by Justice Dike in Kings Supreme Court
A decision in the suit brought by Mrs. Aldric R. Campbell against her husband, Dr. David Newton E. Campbell, in the King County Supreme Court, has been handed down by Justice Norman S. Dike in favor of the defendant. Mrs. Campbell asked $80,000 for defamation of character.
The parties were married in Baltimore, Md., on September 18, 1918. Later they moved to New York and soon after Mrs. Campbell left her husband, who at that time lived at 119 Lefferts place, Brooklyn. He then moved to Jersey City, N. J., and opened an office at 199 Union street.
Mrs. Campbell's complaint was predicated upon a series of letters alleged to have been written by her husband to her sister and father in the British West Indies, and charging her with immorality and infidelity, and which she claimed were greatly damaging to her reputation in America and abroad, where she had won a large number of friends.
Mrs. Campbell was represented by Attorney Rufus L. Perry of Brooklyn, and the doctor by Attorney William B. Bush of 2305 Seventh avenue.
License Revoked for 130th St. Undertaker
Contending she had violated an agreement entered into by all of her neighbors that no one be permitted to use the block for business purposes. Supreme Court Justice Ingraham Friday revoked the temporary license of Mrs. Louise Hart to conduct an undertaking parlor at 67 West 130th street, granted her by the Board of Standards and Appeals.
It was testified in court that when Mrs. Hart obtained the property she asked the Building Department for permission to open up an undertaking establishment. Permission was refused on the grounds that the block was a residential district.
She appealed the case to the Board of Standards and Appeals and was granted a license for two years. Justice Ingraham, however, ruled that the license was not in keeping with the spirit of the zoning laws and revoked it.
AGED WHITE MAN
BEATEN AND STABBED
An aged white man is said to have been stabbed twice and beaten by two men on the corner of 129th street and Seventh avenue last week. The cause of attack is still unknown. The victim of the alleged assault was identified as Arthur Beattie, 50, 1931 Madison avenue.

Men and Women From All Walks of Life, Elks and Spanish-American War Veterans Pay Tribute to Him at Funeral
A prince of sportsmen was laid to rest Monday, and hundreds of persons took notice of his passing. After the funeral services at the Mother Zion A. M. E. Church, the body of John W. Connors, pioneer cabaret owner, who died in his fiftieth year Friday morning at the residence of his sister. Mrs. Ellen Flynn, 231 West 134th street, was placed

in a vault in Woodlawn Cemetery. His life was eulogized by the Rev. James W. Brown, pastor of the church.
Women with babies in their arms, hobbling old men and young alike reviewed the remains of the deceased man in the Duncan Brothers Understaking Parlor, 2303 Seventh avenue, all during the morning.
Suffering from a general breakdown, Connors was ordered by his physician to bed two weeks ago. There was a hope for his ultimate recovery the first part of last week, but it soon failed. He became worse and then, without being able to express his last wishes, died early Friday morning.

Irvin Miller Has Henry Chevaria, Cigar Maker, Arrested and Held Without Bail
Irvin C. Miller, theatrical producer, figured in a real drama of war Friday morning, having a real stage, a fire axe and revolver in the play. Miller's enemy, Henry Chevaria, 29, 143 West 132nd street, a cigarmaker, was held without bail on two serious charges Monday when he was brought before Magistrate Vitale in the Washington Heights Court.
About seven witnesses for the producer were present in court. Miller testified that he was conducting a rehearsal in the Lafayette Theatre at 1 a.m. Friday, when the cigarmaker intruded.
Refusing to get out at the command of the producer, Miller said that one of his performers secured a fire axe that was hanging on the wall and began to chase Chevaria. The cigar man is then alleged to have cursed the actors and informed them that he was coming back with a revolver.
According to Miller's testimony, Chevaria did come back to the theatre with his revolver and flashed it in front of the stage while standing 20 feet away. Someone

Martin was probably the only Negro on the ill-fated submarine when she was rammed and sunk by the City of Rome.
POST OFFICE CLERK DAVID KING FIRES TWO BULLETS INTO BODY OF CHESTER BAGLEY
Good Reputation Borne by Both Men in Fraternal and Church Circles—Husband Found by Detectives Mingling in Crowd Outside House
A young man of a very good family was shot and killed almost instantly Monday afternoon by an enraged husband, who is said to have caught him in bed with his wife.
At Harlem Hospital, where the young man was pronounced dead by Dr. Schwab, he was identified as Chester Bagley, 31, 19 West 132nd street, whose mother is well known as a church worker and member of the Abyssinian Baptist Church. The jealous husband, who admitted the act, is David King, 52, a post office clerk, 102 West 138th street, also well known.
On returning to his home about four o'clock Monday afternoon, King knocked on the door of his apartment and failed to get a response. The burglar proof lock had been set from the inside and he could not use his key.
It could not be learned exactly how he later gained entrance to the place, but he did. He first looked into his bedroom for his wife, Mrs. Frances King, who looks to be about 30 years old, and then searched the remaining portion of the house with the exception of his wife's bedroom, it is claimed.
The husband then attempted to enter his wife's room and found the door locked. He then forced the door open. There he observed his wife, it is reported, in bed with Bagley.
Dashing out of the room in a wild manner, King returned within a few seconds with a loaded revolver. Endeavoring to protect the man, Mrs. King is said to have struggled with her husband, but the enraged man fired two shots, according to the authorities, which took effect in Bagley's body.
Reports from the weapon attracted a large crowd and some one informed the West 135th street police station. Detectives Bauerschmidt and Burns rushed to the scene. After having the body of the victim removed to the hospital, they began their search for King.
Bridgeport Preacher and Deacon Fined
BRIDGEPORT. Conn., July 12. Because he would not stop his praise and prayer service in order that a funeral held next door might be held in quiet, the Rev. Robert L. Jones, pastor of the Church of God and Saints of Christ, and his deacon, Harry Williams, were fined $5 and coasts today for breach of the peace.
To questions put in court Pastor Jones said it was better "to obey the law of God than the laws of man." He explained that his congregation observed Sunday as the Sabbath, and having begun a service he could not stop it in spite of the request of a next door neighbor that it be delayed while a funeral service was held.
Neighbors who testified said that Pastor Jones's praise service was such as to arouse the neighborhood and consisted of trumpet blowing, weird dancing, singing, shouting and stamping of feet.
ALICE KENNEDY'S CASE AGAIN PUT OFF
The case of Alice Kennedy was again adjourned last week until next Thursday. According to her counsellor, she was not in a physical condition to take the stand Wednesday when the case was called in the Homicide Court.

his wife, it is reported, in bed with Baxley.
Dashing out of the room in a wild manner, King returned within a few seconds with a loaded revolver. Endeavoring to protect the man, Mrs. King is said to have struggled with her husband, but the enraged man fired two shots, according to the authorities, which took effect in Bagley's body. Reports from the weapon attracted a large crowd and some one informed the West 135th street police station. Detectives Bauerschmidt and Burns rushed to the scene. After having the body of the victim removed to the hospital, they began their search for King. Mingling in the crowd that had collected in front of the building, the detectives said, they found King and took him and his wife to the station, where King confessed, the authorities said. While awaiting the arrival of a deputy district attorney at the station to examine him, King was extremely restless and even cried. All the time his wife was well composed and seemed unconcerned about what had happened. When arraigned in the Homicide Court Tuesday morning, King was held without bail on a charge of homicide. His wife was also held as material witness.
Bagley is said to be the main support of his mother and two sisters. He was employed at Macy's department store. King is reported to be a member of Mother Zion A. M. E. Church and member of the Elks' Lodge.
Corrections and Inaccuracies
Walter White, assistant secretary of the N.A.A.C.P., has informed the Amsterdam News that William Harleston, who was apprehended in Chicago and brought back to New York City, charged with being a fugitive from justice, did not appear on the platform with Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and others at a meeting of the Association's Annual Conference,
"No person by the name of Harleston." Mr. White wrote, appeared as a speaker at any meeting,"nor did any person by that name sit on the platform."
The Amsterdam News is glad to make the above correction.

mean, in a way, breaking up my

Defending Wife, Man Is Charged With Hitting East Sider With Bottle
Painter May Lose Sight of Both Eyes—Jerry La Rue Held by Magistrate in $10,000
An East Side white man is said to have lost the sight of both eyes as a result of Jerry La Rue, 188 East 101st street, striking him in the face with a milk bottle for insulting his wife Friday evening, it is alleged.
When La Rue was arraigned in Harlem Court and held in $10,000 ball by Magistrate Smith for a further hearing, the victim of the alleged attack was identified as James Connellly, 28, painter, 1874 Third avenue.
Connellly, according to the police, had been visiting a friend at the 101st street house and was on his way home. In the hallway he encountered La Rue wife, who complained that Connellly had passed an insulting remark to her. She told her husband, who seized a bottle and struck Connellly in the face. It is alleged, severely cutting him on both eyes.
Connellly was hurried to the hospital where it was found he had lost the sight of his right eye. His left eye, physicians said, had also become impaired. Connellly is confined to Mt. Sinai Hospital. Leilie denied the charge when arrested by Detectives Dougherty and Caputo of the East 104th street station.

The wounded man was treated in Harlem Hospital, it was disclosed, where it was said that he was not seriously injured.
Policeman Hildebrandt, of the East 126th street station, who arrested Mrs. Carrington immediately after the incident, corroborated her statements, saying that she showed signs of having been severely beaten when he took her into custody.

When she returned, she said, he attempted to effect a reconciliation with her and when she refused, he threatened to kill her. She alleged he provided to beat her; tearing her clothes and inflicting several painful bruises. She then picked up a knife and stabbed him on the

Arrest Man After 7 Months' Search
Arrest Man After 7 Months' Search
After a search lasting almost seven months, Detectives McCrohan and Sommers, of the East 216th street station, arrested Anderson Lewis, 21. 2247 Seventh avenue, on a charge of robbery. Lewis is charged with being one of three men who for many months had terrorized storekeepers in Harlem, holding them up at the point of revolvers, assaulting and robbing them. A number of collectors and agents were also victims of the men; the police say. The two other men have been convicted and are serving long terms in prison. Lewis, who was involved by the two other men, made his escape and was arrested when he returned to his usual haunts. He was located the other day at 132d street and Park avenue. Joseph Galtano, white, owner of the butcher store at 2115 Madison avenue, identified Lewis as one of three men who held him up in his store on January 10. Lewis denied the charge when arraigned Friday before Magistrate Smith in Harlem Court, and was held without bail for a further hearing.

Said He Was Seeking Job as Janitor's Helper
Seek a job at midnight Thursday, Bernard Thornhill, 28, 465 Lenox avenue, landed in jail and later was arraigned in Washington Heights Court on a charge of disorderly conduct. He was given the option of paying a fine of $25 or spending five days in the workhouse. Walter Cottrell, white, cartelist of the Washington Heights Christian Selenite Church, 416 Ft.

Burglary Suspect Held Without Bail
Facing three serious charges, Albert Stewart, 31, S3 West 135th street, was held without ball Friday when he was brought before Magistrate McQuade in Washington Heights Court. Stewart was arrested by Patrolman Otto Burke of the West 155th street, after blowing a bitter struggle in the apartment of Mrs. Catherine Carvin, 152, West 101st street, according to the officer. According to the story told in court, a tenant in the same building saw a man climbing into Mrs. Carvin's apartment from a fire escape. The tenant ran to the street and called Patrolman Burke, who entered the Carvin apartment in the same fashion. Stewart is alleged, first attempt to hide behind a chair. Then realizing he would probably be found, he leaped out and pointed a pistol at the policeman, according to the complaint.
TWO GIRLS, FRIENDS.
FIGHT OVER DRESS
Following an altercation over a dress, it is alleged that Gladys Brown, dancer, 115 West 141st street, was stabbed by her friend, Mammie Coleman, 2S. 21 West 183th street. Miss Coleman was held in $1,500 ball for a further hearing when she was brought before Magistrate McQuade in Heights Court Friday. The dancer, who was removed to Harlem Hospital for treatment, was not able to appear in court to press the charge.
Repudiating Confession, Actress Denies She Shot Husband at Party
Because her husband refused to make a complaint against her, Mrs. Hazel Valentine, an actress, 2 East 127th street, who was charged with having shot him, was discharged Friday by Magistrate Smith in the Harlem Court.

THE STAMP OF QUALITY
Albert, Valentine, who was shot in his apartment following a quarrel, refused to testify against his wife. She was arrested soon after the assault on June 9 and has been held in a high bail since that time. The testimony disclosed that Mrs. Valentine, who recently returned from Europe, had given a party in her home which was attended by several men. When her husband returned home, he objected to the party and summoned his wife into an adjoining room. A heated argument ensued and suddenly a shot rang out.
Valentine staggered out into the hall, and those at the party hurried away. Valentine was found suffering from a gunshot wound in the back and was hurried to Mt. Shail Hospital. Detective Winter, East 126th street station, arrested Mrs. Valentine.
The detective told the Magistrate that when he questioned Mrs. Valentine she admitted to him that she had shot her husband in self-defense. She told him, the detective said, that her husband picked up a milk bottle and stated he was going to kill her. She then got the revolver which belonged to her husband and which he kept in a trunk, and shot him.
On the stand, Mrs. Valentine denied shooting her husband. She declared she was excited when she made the admission that she had shot her husband. Several of those at the party were called to the stand and they testified they did not see the shooting and didn't know who had fired the shot.
Valentine, when called to the stand, testified that he was shot from behind and didn't know who had fired the shot. Detective Winter was recalled and he testified that Valentine at no time had accused his wife of shooting him. Mrs. Valentine, who had been in-
carcerated for over a month because she was unable to raise $10,000 ball, broke down and wept when she was discharged.

A little over eighteen years ago Connors came to Harlem from Brooklyn and opened his first cabaret. After engaging in a number of business adventures, he took over the ownership of the Lincoln Glants.
Shortly after 10 o'clock, the funeral procession headed by the Brooklyn and Manhattan Elks of which he was a member, began the slow march advance toward the church. At 1:30 P. M. they entered the altar, outside and inside thrones of people stood with uncovered and bowed heads as the casket wore to the altar. Some persons dressed in literally bare threads and others fashionably groomed, filed in the church to pay their last respect to the dead man.
About the audience were seated prominent politicians, business men of all lines, theatrical performers—white and colored, humble citizens that he had befriended, the members of the family, were seated, the minister led the congregation in a hymn. While soft strains from the organ sounded, the Rev. Brown read passages from the scripture. At the request of the deceased man, Fred

A squad of Spanish War veterans placed an emblem on the beautiful grey, armored metal the dead comrade. They then stood at attention as taps were sounded from the balcony. Cleveland Copeland rendered a bartone solo and was followed by his brother Elks in a ceremony over their deceased member.
The simplicity and frankness in which the Rev. Dr. Brown delivered his eulogy transformed tears into smiles and faces of gloom into cheer. The minister said in part:
"He was for a number of years a visitor and friend of this church. He was greatly interested in the work of the church and put a great deal of reverence in God's House. I have talked to a goodly number of citizens, and I have yet to find one to make a discreditable remark about him.
"Everyone regards him as a big brother. His biggest enemy was himself. I have been informed by his closest associates and friends that he did not swear, drink or smoke all of the parcel abies. I think that in itself is remarkable and unusual."
Speaking of the service that he had rendered to the community, the pastor said that there was no end to his generosity. Connors had a great deal of self-respect and self-possession. He was unassuming and had a deep sense of appreciation, the Rev. Brown declared.
Editor Moore deplored those who contended that cabarets are resorts of the underworld. He looks upon them as legitimate businesses, he said. While he had been criticized for his association with Baron Wilkins and John Connors, Mr. Moore said that he was proud of it because he could influence them along right lines. Connors was born at Ports Smith, Va., 1876. At the outbreak of the Spanish-American War, he joined the navy. Soon after the

"Within the next three or four generations it will be hard to find a pure blooded Negro outside the remote black belts of the rural South. The near winner will have crossed the line or bred backwards on the color scale. A new Negroid race will have emerged.
The Howard University dear blames the mixed program upon the white man, the males of the stronger race taking advantage of the females of the weaker. He save he is primarily responsible for whatever race crossing has already taken place or that threatened to take place in the future. The Negro woman has been victimized and the approximation of the race is the result, he says.
"Should the white race issue a decree enviable upon every member of the blood, that there shall be no further intermingling of the races, the process would ultimately cease," the writer emphasized. Of the 1,600,000 colored persons recruited as militants in the genius of 1920 and of more than 40 may with consolesled white blood in their veins, the overwhelming majority, especially of the young generation, are offering of colored fathers and mothers, writes Professor Miller. There is already a large quantity of white blood in Negro veins. This blood tends to diffuse itself equally throughout the whole mass until it shall have assumed an approximate含量 in color and physical likeness.

Glover is alleged to have forged envelopes in the bank book of the ideal Mail and Hope Co. 1648 English avenue, over a period of three months when he was sent with cash and checks to the Court Exchange Bank. 141st avenue and Amsterdam avenue.
Although he is only 18, Glover was convicted of burglary in 1992 according to Assistant District Attorney Edwaren, who asked that the boy be held without bail for the Grand Jury.

Sent to Cooler to Cool Himself Off John T. Clark, Known Here, to Head Urban League Work in St. Louis
ATLANTA, July 11 — Albert Allen, who despite the lack of clothing and the aid of a block of fire still suffered from the heat, was given 10 days in the cooler, a day last week.
Allen, it was revealed in police court, twice his excessive heat in three drunks of corn liquor. After taking them, he told Judge A. W. Callaway, he went home and went to bed, but could not sleep.
He walked around in an attempt to get cool and then took of all his clothing and went back to bed. But the bed was too hot. He got up and headed to walk around a bit, forgetting the lack of clothes.
A policeman sound Alien personally reaching on a low-pound block of ice in front of a drug store. Alien clothesmen at the war, or his boy bed, were intensely learning himself with an enormous phase of percussion. At court, Alien still without clothes, appeared before the judge wrapped in a pill blinder—and still pummeling. The judge's sentence was immediate—fifth or sixthe. And Alien having no clothes, naturally had no pockets and with no pockets carried no money.

In the Fall of 1921 he accepted a position as secretary of Bonsing and Industrial Bureau of New York from Legee. In this position Mr. Clark made the first effort showing the distribution of Negro population and the perennial expansion of Negro population in Harlem. In this work he became connected with various housing experiments looking toward the benefits of housing and living conditions in New York and through these connections, and upon Mr. Clark's advice, the largest single transaction of modern departments was carried by Philip A. Peyton the pioneer Negro real estate dealer of New York City. The deal involved a million and a half dollars.
Following Mr. Clark's intensive study and numerous surveys, in connection with living and housing conditions in Harlem, he compiled and published in pamphlets from the results of his findings, suggestions and recommendations.
He organized the Urban League in Pinehurst, March 1, 1916, and did scientific work along all lines in helping to adjust the crowded housing, living and social conditions there.
Mr. Clark was married to Miss Patricia Penrose of Chicago, a graduate of the University of Richmond in 1917. They have two children Marion and John J. Jr.

Nevertheless, the Encyclopaic Congress has demonstrated that in theory all men are created equal and that, religiously, all men white or black are as the Religious teachers will pull throw at the alleged weaknesses of Christianity, but so long as Christian will welcome the Negro in social equality of religion there is always the belief that social equality of religion will eventually give birth to social equality of civil government, politics, education, citizenship and all the things which God must have had as mind when he created "Max."—or "Men."

Sister of John Burroughs In Destitute Circumstances
By THELMA E. BERLACK.
"TWO FLIGHTS UP in the rear, madam."
Yes, two flights up in an old tenement house in lower New York—322 West 37th street, to be exact—sits one upon whom Fate has dealt the cards.
Maybe you remember the late John Burroughs, a musician of Clof Club fame, who died on October 10, 1924? (His mother died in 1923 on the same day.)
Well, in a dark, three-room apartment in West 37th street, sits Mrs. Alice Worles, the sister of the late John Burroughs. A woman, who for about thirty years could see as you see; a woman, who has been sick since Easter Sunday—April 4; a woman, who is now totally blind; a woman, who has no permanent help.
For seven weeks Mrs. Alice Worles, 2460 Seventh avenue, formerly of Jacksonville and Green Cove Springs, Fla., was in Bellevue Hospital. An attack of neuritis of the eyes has left her completely blind.

Armstrong, John R., 695 St. Nicholas avenue; Willie Mae Hunt, same address.
The hospital authorities were about to send Mrs. Worles to Ward's Island. It was Mrs. Lillian Robertson, a widow of 322 West 35th—a friend of Mrs. Worles—who volunteered to let her stay in her little apartment.
Some one had to care for Mrs. Worles during the day while Mrs. Robertson was at work. It was Miss Permella Wilkinson, 26 West 137th street—a friend since 1911—who volunteered to stay with Mrs. Worles during the day. But Miss Wilkinson has to go to Saratoga Springs next week, to work.
And what is to become of Mrs. Worles?
He is the Good Shepard Convent, 191 Eaton street, Providence, R. I., Islore Worles, the ten year old daughter of Mrs. Worles. Ten, yes, on July 11, but did Clorice have a birthday cake with candles and a pretty parity?
Clorice knows her mother is ill, but she does not know she is blind. Clorice's mother, when she had her sight, was a private dressmaker. She put her daughter in a convent (costing her $15 a month for board, room and piano lessons until April; and then costing her $15 thereafter because she had the music lessons stopped), so that she could work and give her the right to an education.
Fate interfered!
What is to come of Clorice? It is to have spent her summers with her mother, but now she is being kept at the convent until something can be done.
Mrs. Worles is a member of the Mother A. M. E. Zion Church. Class No. 4, and a member of Electra Temple No. 14, Eastern Star.
But what is to become of Mrs. Alice Worles?

To Change Names of D. C. Schools
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 12. Because of the confusion and embarrassment caused by the similarity in the name of the National Training School for Women and Girls, of which Nannie H. Burroughs is president, and that of the National Training School for Girls, the district reform school, the trustees considered a change of name advisable. The National Academy and Training School for Girls is to be the new name of Miss Burroughs' school. Plans are being made to raise the curriculum of the school to junior college work.
Offers an opportunity for women and girls to spend their vacations under a wholesome, Christian atmosphere.
ELWEMAR is situated in the Berkshire Mountains, with Lakes and Fruit Orchards nearby, and affords every opportunity for campers to enjoy real outdoor life.

Girls Not to Be Denied Swimming Pool Rights
The New Bedford, Mass., Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has established the right of colored girls to use the Y. W. C. A. swimming pool in that city, according to reports received by the national office of the N. A. A. C. P.
The vote of the Y. W. C. A., according to the swimming pool rights to colored girls, was taken after a conference requested by Mrs. Joseph S. Webster, secretary of the New Bedford N. A. A. C. P. It was voted that: "The Board of the Y. W. C. A. wishes to go on record and states that there will be no discrimination in race, creed or color as long as girls and women are upheld the purpose of this legislation."
The fight by the N. A. A. C. P. against the swimming pool discrimination was upheld by both the New Bedford Evening Standard and the New Bedford Times, local dailies.

To Sing for Musical Ass'n
A. E.
MISS RUBY GREENE, contrato, of 321 St. Nicholas avenue, winner of three medals in the New York Week Association, is scheduled to sing in Philadelphia for the National Association of Negro Musicians on Thursday evening. Ms. Greene will perform for the John Wanamaker Store of Philadelphia on Friday, July 30.
Miss Greene, a high school science pupil of E. Aldana Jackson
McColum's wife had just given birth to three sons, so he wrote to the member of Congress and asked if the Government "will not help a poor fellow in such a case as this." The Government offers no premiums for triplets, so the bulletin was sent in place of financial aid.
The Cook Says---
Never put boiling water into a hot-water bottle. It is likely to burst the bottle as well as make it so hot you cannot touch it.
When you wish a cup of strong tea, instead of putting an extra teaspoon of tea in the pot add one lump of sugar. It opens the leaves and will make the tea much stronger.
To open fruit jars easily, set them upside down in hot water for about five minutes. Don't have the water too hot or the tops will crack.
Never iron outing flannel, but brush it thoroughly. Brushing renews the softness and removes all lint.
Never put fruit peelings directly into an enamel sink, for the acids in them will ruin the enamel and make it rough and hard to keep clean.
To clean wallpaper, first brush the walls thoroughly with a duster.
To remove lime which accumulates on the inside of seal coat, rub the inside of vinegar inside of the kettle, then rinse thoroughly before putting water' in it.
Vegetable Wisdom
A standard can of vegetables will serve three or four persons. Allow one or two onions, either baked or toasted, to a person. One pound of green peas will serve two. One bunch of beets will serve three or four. One bunch of asparagus will serve two.
Allow two or more ears of corn to a person (not served on cob). medium sized carrots will serve two.
One-half pound of string beans will serve two.
One-half pound of cabbage will serve four persons.
One pound of tomatoes, or two or three large ones baked, will serve two. Sliced. one large one will be enough for two. Two medium sized ones fried will serve two.

Don'ts for Girls
Don't be ashamed of your parents. They may be unlearned and dull, but they gave you the chance to become what you are. Honor them before all men.
Don't neglect little deeds while dreaming of great ones.
Don't regulate your behavior by geography. Be as modest at the seashore as at home.
Don't purchase any pleasure at the price of another girl's pain. The tables of Fate are ever revolving.
Don't become masculine if you are a college girl. Fit yourself for a vocation if you choose, but hold fast to your girlish personality.
Don't laugh all the time, or the world will finally let you laugh alone.
Don't trust the girl who is everyone's echo. She has not enough character to defend anyone.
Don't make a tragedy of a simple failure. Study your capabilities first, and if you have overrated their strength try again, going more slowly.
Don't be assured of your beauty when men stare. Some men stare at any skirted object.
Don't fuss. If things never went wrong, whod long for heaven?

Platonic friendship: What most true love affairs begin in, and all happy marriages end in.
Before taking a man for life, every girl should have the opportunity of listening in, at least once, when he is shaving in cold water, on a cold morning, in a bad light.
Usually, the man who wouldn't let a girl soil her little fingers with the dusty robe before marriage, will ask her to get the car out of the garage, in her evening gown, after marriage—Meditations, of a Wife.

Beauty Secrets
By
Mme.
Sara.
Washington
Because most women wear their hair bobbed, and many the boyish bob, there is great danger of their becoming bald-headed in the same manner as men.
Without a doubt a great many cases of baldness are accelerated, if not caused by tight-fitting hats. These hats constrict the blood vessels leading up to the top and front of the scalp and diminish the supply of blood and nutrition they carry. This supply is needed for the proper growth and good condition of the hair.
The scalp is supplied with blood arteries or blood channels running up along the back, front and sides of the skull. The flesh there is very thin and these arteries must be close to the bone. The pressure of a tight fitting rim compresses these arteries. This pressure diminishes the supply of blood for the numerous small branches of arteries which radiate into still finer branches that communicate directly with the hair roots.
Now that bobbed hair is in style, woman have done away with the old method of wearing hat pins and are wearing tight-fitting hats. They are subjecting themselves to the same conditions that confront men. Heretofore if a woman did wear a tight-fitting hat the abundance of hair acted as a cushion, and, therefore, did not seriously effect the blood supply.
You have, noticed the red band of congestion in the forehead when the hat has been removed. Most cases of premature baldness begin at the forehead where the hat fits most tightly. Then too, baldness, almost never penetrates below the line of the hat band, thus indicating that the tight-fitting hat is directly-responsible for much of the trouble.
Ventilation of the hair is also a matter which the hat interferes with seriously. Isn't it true that

MRS. BENNETT'S ADDRESS.
Mrs. Ruth Bennett, president of the Women's Federation of Pennsylvania, glorified the Negro women of America. Speaking of great women she lusted these as being some of America's greatest personalities: Mary McLeod, the nurse; Amelia McLeod, the late Mary Tennant; Lucy Slowe, Annie Malone, Addle W. Hunton and the late Margaret J. Washington.
DR. DU BOIS SPEAKS.
Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, editor of the Crisis, travelled 2,000 miles from the West to get back in time to speak before the assembled clubwomen. That the connection between American Negroes and Africa is something more than sentiment was pointed out by Dr. Du Bois in his address. The same thing can be applied to him, and there is something between them more vital than sentiment, he said. Digress to praise the women for his work, he emphasized the fact that there was a transition of woman from household drudgery to a more leisurely life, so she can now take part in other activities.
E. K. JONES TELLS OF URBAN LEAGUE
To explain the work of the Urban League, which is so generally misunderstood, Eugene Knickle Jones, executive secretary of the national body, gave a brief history of the organization. Through the efforts of the Urban League a Negro was appointed as interne at Bellevue Hospital and a Negro is to be appointed to the executive board of the American Federation of Labor. At the beginning of the organization in 1910, he said, it set out to find out the existing social status of the Negro and how it could be improved. The association's policy is that
Obviously, the re-election of Mrs. Addie W. Hunton as president is regarded as an expression of confidence and appreciation for the complete reorganization of the Federation.
OFFICERS ELECTED.
Other officials elected were: Mrs. Mattie Burge of New York, vice-president; Mrs. Lottie Henderson of Brooklyn, chairman of the executive board; Mrs. Florence Monroe of Mt. Vernon, recording secretary; Mrs. Elizabeth Kidd, corresponding secretary; Miss Margaret Thomas of Ithaca, financial secretary; Mrs. Cecily Gunner of Hillburn, treasurer; Mrs. Estelle Berkley, organizer; Mrs. Elizabeth Mayfield, historian; Mrs. Florence Spencer of New York, chaplain; Mrs. Lulie Liley Cowan of New Platz, parliamentarian, and Mrs. Mary D. James, auditor.
EVENING PROGRAMS.
Programs featuring music, art and literature were presented at different evening sessions. Outstanding men and women of the country spoke before the convention. Dr. W. E. B. Du Bols told them about Africa. Eugene Knickle Jones explained the part that the National Urban League played in their daily life. Mrs. Elizabeth Ross Haynes pointed out salient features of the housing problem. Other distinguished persons that spoke before the women were: James Weldon Johnson, Herman A. Metz, representing Mayor James Walker, Mrs. William H. Worthham, Mrs. Ruth Bennett, and Magistrate Jean Norris and Miss Frances Gunner.
SPIRIT OF THE MEETING.
From the general atmosphere of the convention the women are claiming all the rights of men and one more, that is the right to be protected. This attitude, however, was not interpreted as a blow to the home. Some of the women actually remarked that they regarded marriage as the hooldest of Indians, and that they are merely rebellious against household slavery. Every good government is made up of good families. The unit of government is the family, and anything that tends to destroy the family is perfectly infamous. The home is a place of sunshine and inspiration and should not conflict with the woman's affiliation with clubs. That is the spirit that dominated the convention. because of her last efforts to raise proceeds for the Frederick Douglass College of the spirit of late Mrs. Mary M. Talbert was obviously present. A Mary Talbert memorial fund to sustain the home is being subscribed to by the Federation.
FOUNDER PRESENT.
Mrs. Alice Wiley Seay, founder of the organization, who now lives in Richmond, Va., was on the platform during all the sessions. Mrs. C. Lawton was the only honorary president in attendance. Mrs. Frances Keyser, the only other honorary president living, was not able to be present on account of illness.
One of the biggest things the Federation will undertake during coming year is to raise funds to finance the Pan-African Congress here in 1927.
TO RAISE FUND
To build a greater association plans were put on foot to properly organize a Junior Federation, to hire a national organization finish its drive on a $50,000 scholarship loan, and to attach permanent headquarters. The convention also launched a campaign for 50,000 new members.
AMENCIEMENT DEFEATED
An amendment to the constitution prohibiting a member from holding the same office more than four executive years was turned down by the mayor was voted to the president to point four district presidents. This

white and black people work to
gather.
In pointing out some of the results of the League's work, Mr. Jones explained that it had stimulated discussion of the Negro among thinking white people.
Branching off into one particular department, the executive secretary told of the tremendous value and importance of the Department of Research. The department has furnished data to industrial centers all over the country.
"Opportunity," a magazine supervised by the department, was mentioned recently in an editorial appearing in the New York Times as being one of the best edited periodicals in the country. White universities all of North South as well as South and Yale subscribe to the publication, he said.
Mrs. William H. Wortham spoke in behalf of the Young Women's Christian Association.
At the close of the session Mrs. M. C. Lawton made this statement:
"I was perfectly delighted at the success of the Federation and the increase in membership. The program was perfectly splendid. The women acquitted themselves with marked ability.
Mrs. Allice W. Seay, mother of the organization, was also well pleased with the progress made.
Mrs. Josephine Frazier express-
ed herself in this hanner:
"I feel that we have had great financial, numerical and spiritual gain. There has been excellent spirit exhibited along all lines."
SPEAKS FOR SORORITIES.
Representing the college and sorority women of New York, Miss France Gunner, secretary of the Ashland Branch of the Y. W. C. A.,
said:
"It is my greatest pleasure and privilege to extend to this convention greetings and congratulations on behalf of the college and sorority women of New York City.
We congratulate you first upon this, your eighteenth anniversary meeting, which marks the completion of eighteen years of unity and cooperation among the women's clubs of this city.
"In the second place, we desire to congratulate you upon the splendid leadership which has guided this organization from its infancy up to the present day.
"In the third place, we desire to congratulate you upon the broad program which this organization is developing, comprising, as does all departments covering all the important fields of the modern woman's duty and interest: Citizenship, Legislation, Health and Hygiene, Domestic Art, Music, Church Relations, the American Home, Anti-Lynching Education and others.
DR. HAYNES TALKS ON HOUSING CONDITIONS
Making an appeal to the clubs of the federations all over the country, Mrs. Elizabeth Ross Haynes said in part: "We must find some Negro women of college background and special training to take civil service examinations for positions in bureaus as economic analysts. This is the first task of the National Association of Colored Women in this field and upon which it is now directing its efforts for the meeting in Oakland, Calif., this month.
"There is great need of an awakened industrial and housing conscience in Negro Women all over. In New York City there are 12,000 organized white women in the Ladies' Garment Union and five hundred organized Negro women in this union. There are eight to nine thousand Negro women in the garment trades in New York unorganized; a large proportion of them are pressers—this is about the lowest paying and the hardest part of the work because these pressers have to stand all day at their work. There are quite a number of finishers who, do do piece work which is rather tedious and slow. New shops such as radio assembling parts open up and use Negro girls until the shop is sure it can go on all fours, the crab factories of Virginia and Kentucky and the hardest work—stripping—and sit on the floor or on boxes and stools without hacks; the tobacco dust and odors are severe.
"In Indianapolis, Ind, the W. Y. C. A., under the leadership of Miss Mae Belcher, has done a magnificent piece of work in getting Negro girls into the glove factories. A new glove factory was built for Negro girls.
"In domestic service, the hours are long and conditions are hard, and the numbers are declining in this service—trying to get into something else. There has not been a large and thorough study of Negro women in industry except on a small scale.
"Negroes must learn to keep their blocks cleaner and quieter. Dance parties two-thirds of every Saturday night are a menace.

Pullman Company Fights Inquiry
Congressman Emanuel Celler Meets Opposition to His Bill
Congressman Emanuel Celler, sponsor of a resolution in the House of Representatives for the investigation of the Pullman Company and the conditions of its porters and molds, promised a large gathering of this newly organized group of workers a further fight for their cause. Celler is trying to dislodge his resolution from the Committee on Rules and have it transferred to the Labor Committee. Pullman Company influence is making every effort to bury the preposition in committee.
The richest families in America are represented in the Pullman Company board of directors, Celler reminded the porters and maids. He mentioned the George F. B.akers, senior and junior; J. Pierpont Morgan, a representative of the Marshall Field family, one of the Vanderbilt clan, and Robert T. Lincoln. The latter, Collier told the workers, is doing all he can to enslave Pullman porters, in spite of his Father Abraham Lincoln's Proclamation of Emancipation, which was supposed to free Negro slaves in America.

Porters average less than $125 a month, including tips, Celler said, while the average estimated living wage is $2,300 a year for an American family. Porters, besides, have to endure hardships of uncertain hours, too short sleeping periods and a fake company union.

UNION SAYS IT WILL
STAND BY OPERATORS
From sources we believe to be
the mest reliable, we have’ it
that Locai 306 of the American
Federation of Labor Is on record
as being prepared to stand by
the colored motion picture orer-
ators they induced to join the
unjon after this paper had stren-
uously objected to the reserva-
tions In certain rules which we
reproduced in these column:
some time ago.
Walle we advocated the pasc-
ing up of the union by the oper-
ators, we see no reason te con
tinue to adhere to a stand which
becomes unnecessary whtn tne
local is willing to do the right
thing by the boys. Under these
circumstances we can now jump
in and ask the Lafayette and
Renaissance Theatres to sign
the papers that will bring all the
theatres in Harlem under the
control of the union.
With Local 306 on. the job
looking out for the interests of
the colored operators the same
as they have been doing for the
“white operators, it will mean the
“last step that will usher in a bet
ter day for the boys operating
the machines ‘in the local thea-
tres. With union wages and
perhaps better conditions, this
‘heretofore will mean another
“atep up ina line: in. which we
have been barred for years.

Giving Lee Whipper the O. 0 in Newark—Trying to Find Kirk Marrow in Elizabeth and Rollo in Philadelphia
It was hot Wednesday afternoon, June 30, when we swung over the old plank road leading into Newark, N. J., and we sought comfort at the one place we knew we could find it if Lee Whipper, expressario extraordinario, could be found at his haven or rest and inspiration known as the Orpheum Theatre.
And we found Lee. He was in the box office at the Orpheum at the time and soon we were imbibing freely of the enthusiasm and inspiration which Lee can give one when he is in the mood. As manager of the New Jersey catering to our people, Lee finds satisfaction, and during the time he has been in charge he has also found success.
For the people of his section he has the highest praise, and the plans he is at present formulating for the coming season should find the Orpheum enjoying an era of prosperity which we found it impossible to visualize when we made Newark a stopping off place in the days when G. Grant "Gram" brought his Problem to the Orpheum in name and problem in fact was this show. J. Meyer Burrell, at present a practicing attorney in the town to which James Fultz gave prominence, carried a spear on that memorable occasion.
Whipper not only gave us a warm welcome, but took from their archives the keys of the city and tware but left to him, we could have taken from his domain the best New Jersey can produce. It was eventide when we left the manager who will startle Newark and the surrounding towns with his "Band Of Gold" the coming season, hence we headed for an old crony in Elizabeth, Kirk Marrow, an efficient and trusted member of the police force in the latter town.
But deploying into devious roadways which cut into our time, we failed to locate the genial Kirk and headed for Perth Amboy, a town which we used to visit in childhood days to see our sire who was at that time a member of Uncle Sam's fighting unit—the navy. Only a few moments to spend here and slid gracefully over the new span which takes you into South Amboy. Through little hamlets—which were but in their infancy in days of pore we sped. Red Bank in the cool of the evening after many stops along the road to enjoy frankness and the scenery. We had a clear reign of thought to add to the discomfort of Mirandy Tattler in producing these pages and we certainly inhaled inspiration from the cooling breezes.

"MY MAGNOLIA" AT MANSFIELD THEATRE Hunter Again Scores at Big Broadway House
Then Red Bank. Hardly a change here since yesterday. A hasty trip through the section occupied by our people; a hasty handshake with old acquaintances and again we were off.
Of time we had plenty, hence we coasted along at an uneven pace which brought us into Long Branch long after the stars came out to illuminate the beautiful mansions along the splendid shore drive, casting Blinking rays unreflected by Older-seemed sea to our left. Enticing beaches fanning a warm brow were conducive to a longer stay along this beautiful roadway than previously planned, and it was midnight when we rolled into old Asbury—Asbury Park if you must.
Reese Dupree was at his old stand hard by the Roseland. The place is now leased to Hart, who once assisted Prof. Charles H. Anderson in conducting dancing classes here. Rumor says that the K. K. K. it was that burned to the ground Dupree's place fronting Corlies avenue in the Grove. As we think of Dupree's failure to wize up the possibilities of this place with the natural lake, extensive grounds with pollinators, we wonder if it is permissible to give voice to the thought that possibly the Klan did him a favor?
It was Willie Benedict and Arthur Bell who insisted that we find surcause from our labors of driving, and here the night found us enjoying the hospitality of these friends. Verily, a visit to one of the three places called 'cabaret's' but which we knew as just plain ordinary clubs in bygone days, cooled our ardor for making a night of magic and merely aaved the magic wand and we went to fitful dreams of the peace and quiet of Jamaica, L. L. Mayhan thoughts of She-Who Must-Be-Obeed back there in Long Island had much to do with our unrest.
Coming of the new day found us renewing acquaintances with numerous friends of the past, and the time after noon was spent in gazing with rap attention at the efforts of the New Jersey Tennis Association. Ho. he hum. Evening again found us still in old Asbury, but this time at Mrs. Moore's on Mattison Avenue where he met after giving J. Mercer the once over at the dance of the Association that night at Roseland.
No, we were not tired of Asbury e'en though we did glance into the casino on the boardwalk and rested our eyes for a moment the night previous, but before Aurora Borealis was even signalled to rise and illuminate the horizon with his warm rays, we were on our way to Trenton. No stops. Just humming along the road. No stops in hamlets or towns and after Trenton we were not quite Cameron. No stop here, but right into the land of the Quakers. W. Rollo Wilson not being discernible, we felt a strong longing to be back and before T. Gibson knew we were in the town we were again on the plank road.
Through Forty-second street to Fifth avenue was a quick dash, for we met most of the cars in Kingdom Come on their way to those scenes and places from which we were hurrying. Central Park then Harlem. Midnight found us being joyous, joyous, joyous. We obeyed the Obey. We knew she was hostess at a whist party at the old home, and if we did break the law and arrive in time to be greeted by her warm smile, melting eyes and trembling embrace, also warm shouts of welcome from the Sinclairs, Parishes, Lillys (mark absent the Huberts) and Shaws, it had to be done, for here we found that which was, the inspiration for the work which made possible the five pages over which we have the honor of presiding in today's bigger and better Amsterdam News.

Learned Knife Throwing for Scene in "Paris"
Learning a knife-thrower's tricks was the sudden task of one of the premier aristocrats of stage and screen when Douglas Gilmore, recently an Ellnor Glyn hero, forsook this type of role to play "The Cat." Paris underworld gangster, in Edmund Goulding's new Metro Goldwyn-Mayer production, "Paris," Gilmore, out of his dress suit, had to practice until he could throw a knife as the French criminal. He became quite adept, as is shown in the picture which comes July 17. 18 and 19 to the Douglas Theatre.
Charles Ray and Joan Crawford head a notable cast in the new production, in which appear Mime Rose Dione, Michael Vasoroff, Jean Galeron and other notables of the screen. It was directed by Edmund Goulding from his own original story.

"My Magnolia" AT THE MANSFIELD.
After witnessing "My Magnolia" at the Mansfield Theatre on Monday evening we are at last convinced that we are living in an age entirely different from that which brought us the early successful colored musical comedies. We have found it hard to "kick in" to this state of affairs, but for fear of joining those we have so blithely designated as members of a certain club made famous by the late Theodore Roosevelt who vegetated in a bygone age, we canulate and will say that the axe must be called into play at the Mansfield.
Seldom have we seen a new show get off to such a splendid start as did "My Magnolia," and seldom have we seen a show slow up and remain slowed up as in the case of the above vehicle. That opening was wonderful and yet gregarious in contributing to the disappointment of too much dialogue later.
"Magnolia" boasts an aggregation of song and dance artists. No doubt about that. Alberta Perkins has long been accepted as a comedienne, but Monday night she came into her own and capped with a performance with Shawn Your Dustur. And along with that Monday night gathering we could have gone on and on listening to Paul Bass singing "My Magnolia."
The dialogue must be chopped, and this is where Charlie Davis and this is where the speeding up is done he will be asked to contribute his share—and he can certainly do that thing if we are to judge by the splendid Dancing gave "Magnolia" a saving grace without which even the story of our cur friend, Alex Rogers, could not save him, in better moments, albeit he did.contribute some share to whatever comedy there was.

Arthur Train Novel Basis of New Film
"Blind Goddess" a Dramatic Panorama of Modern New York Life and Love
Arthur Train's exciting novel of contemporary New York life. "The Blind Goddess," which comes to the Roosevelt Theatre July 17, 18 and 19, has at last reached the screen via Paramount and the directorial chaperonage of Victor Fleming, Jack Holt, Esther Kane, Ernest Hemingway, Louise Dresser are featured at the head of a large and competent cast.
The mock pageantry of the law and the unequal struggle between right and wrong form an interesting and powerful theme for this new romance-drama.
The story, in brief, portrays the thrilling romance of a young prosecuting attorney, who is forced to sacrifice the girl he loves to adhere to his ideal of duty. The action is laid in a background that ranges, from the grim routine of the criminal courts to the smart social atmosphere of Fifth Avenue's exclusive homes.
Every sequence in "The Blind Goddess" is said to be a climax in itself, and each sequence as it is unfolded leads up to the tremendous courtroom scenes where Esther Ralston, daughter of Torrence, the ordered political assassin, the lifeline of Louise Presser, the woman charged with the crime, who later, proves to be her own mother!

Harper's Revue Stays at the New Lincoln
Leonard Harper's Revue with an array of chorus beatles well known because of the high brand of entertainment they have dished out in the past in the Broadway cabaret, also at the local cinemas, counting the big attraction at the New Lincoln Theatre this week.
Keeping up the fun, frolic and dancing are also a number of well known artists and the usual Monday afternoon gathering at the 133th street house gave them big numbers. That, too, that Harper aggregation will do three weeks at the Lincoln. Those observed in principal parts include Ed Greca and Dusty Platchet. Alma Smith, formerly of the Plantation: Mae Barnes, with added attractions in the person of Grant and Fats Waller.

Mandarin Ball
at the Savoy
Oriental Atmosphere To B in Keeping With the Unusual Occasion
Notables. from stage and civil life have made reservations for the night of the Chinese Mandarin Bar at the Savoy Ballroom on Friday July 23. A shroud of mystery surrounds the preparations behind made by the management and the unique event bids. The steadily growing popularity of this nationally famous ballroom.
Many pretty Chinese maidens have been seen in conversation with Managing Director Buchanan and it is predicted that a program of Chinese entertainment will blaze forth on that gain night which will besides being different and un usual, give Savoy followers some thing to talk about. Big packin' cases with Chinese lettering on the outside have been arriving daily at the ballroom.
While their contents have no as yet been disclosed it is again predicted that the patrons will take something home with that they didn't bring with them. We do know, however, that the celebrated interior decorator, Win How, whose oriental studio lower Greenwich Village has been the favorite haunt of society many a moon and whose humoral gifts have given rise of such familiar people as the Van derbiltts, Goulds, etc. has been engaged to decorate the Savoy into a maze of oriental splendor without regard to expense.
Another announcement, that pleases us is the news that a fully equipped Chinese kitchen has been installed, which opens with the Chinese Mandarin Ball and Savoy patrons, can partake of Chinese food prepared by a genuine oriental at prices that are lower than any place in town, but with the same high grade service and ingredients used as heretofore.
The management has become firmly convinced that the serving of food is necessary and with the Chinese kitchen one can enjoy a complimentary meal, see an cooler show, lounge about in comfortable arm chairs, partake of cooling drinks or eat the best of food, all of which is furnished at an extremely moderate price. If you are seeking pleasure, if you want to enjoy a different kind of night, if you are wise go to the Chinese Mandarin Ball at the Savoy on Friday night, July 23.

Cricket Match a Draw on Account of Rain
A large crowd of spectators were at New York Oval Sunday afternoon to witness the cricket match between the Bermuda and New York cricket teams, but owing to the heavy rainfall both teams had to be content with a draw. Bermuda was first at bat, running up a total of 118. E. Paynter being high score man with 20. The New York eleven, who defeated the visiting Canadian team last week, had lost one wicket for 18 runs when rain put a stop to all further play for the day. H. Lewis had the best bowling average for the New York team, capturing three wickets for 11 runs, while E. Holder secured two for 12, and A. Harding three for 28.
Oh You, Lloyd!
SKEPTICS who have been thinking the Lincoln Giants a more lucky than an improved team this season were convinced that this is not the case by a three game season on Saturday and Sunday. The Lincoln played in championship style and won all three of these games, defending the Sox on Saturday, defending the Newark, on Saturday by a score of 6-5 and winning at Protective Oval Sunday by scores of 6-5 and 8-6.
IN the first inning on Saturday a double play from Finley to Hudspeth seemed to take the murale of the Sox. It nerved Gilmore to pitch the best game of his career, allowing only slight scored hits by the visitors, while the victors were forced to use their three best pitchers.
ON Sunday the Gee brothers were a big factor in the victories. The Sox made three runs in the eighth inning and tied the score, due to an error by Lewis. Manager Lloyd immediately took the game and took his place himself. He sent "Rich" Gee to second base and pit Tom Gee behind the plate. The visitors had gotten two men on base and had only pitched one hit. The came to bat and hit a line drive just over "Rich" Gee's head. The new second baseman jumped high into the air and caught the ball. The Lincoln's half of the ninth Lloyd singled and Hudspeth scored him for the winning run.
IN the second game it was "Tom Gee's home run over "Heavy" Johnny head" field that tied the score. Another homer by Hudspeth in the ninth inning gave the home team their margin of victory. The fine pitching of "Rube" Chambers was a feature of the first pitch. He hit 11 men and but eight scattered hits.
MANY OUT TO BLOCK CHAMPS
The block championship drew many enthusiastic rooters and expert swimmers to the pool of the Young Men's Christian Association on Thursday evening, July 8. The occasion was the block swimming championship. One hundred and Forty-first street carried off the lion's share of the honors. Thomas Mosely was the high point scorer, securing 15½ points; Willis Hanks was second with 9½ points; beak with 9½ points. Coverington, who secured 9 points for third place, B. VanRondoutt fourth, 4½ points; Mallard and McAllister 1 23 points for fifth; A. Thompson, 1 point.
The silver, gold and bronze medals awarded the swimmers were donated by Mr. Joseph Frohlich, provisional of 141st street and Eighth avenue. The Physical Department is planning to hold similar meets during the summer.

The Germantown Open in Philadelphia, the New Jersey Open at bordentown, and the New York Open follow each other in quick succession, all leading up to the national title play at St. Louis in August. Of the oystern tournaments this year, the New Jersey Open at bordentown will probably take precedence, by reason of the fact that it has been sanctioned by the A. T. A. as the Eastern Sectional Championships, rating next to the nationals in order to face the nationals in championship affair in truth, now that the lending players of the East have announced their intention of taking part in the New Jersey play.

HILLDALE CLUB WINS SUNDAY
HILLDALE CLUB WINS SUNDAY
A homer in the ninth inning by Pitcher Nap Winters with two rangers on base gave the Hilldale Club a victory in the second game of their double-header with the Bushwicks at Dexter Park on Sunday. The score was 6 to 3. The Hilldales also took the first game, 5 to 0, long hit by a pitcher who issued the issue in this contest. Cookell tripping with two on in the eighth. Winters was pretty much the whole show in the second game. He relieved Lee in the sixth after that pitcher walked Dean with one out and permitted only one hit, a single by Gobel in the ninth. The teams were deadlocked, 3 to 3, when the final frame started. After Thomas popped out Carr walked. Washington lifted to Dennehey but Roberts singled. Winters then sent the first ball offered by Harbor over the right field with a strike.
In the opening game Cockrell limited the Bushwicks to three finely scattered hits.

In line with this effort, Mrs. Sadler of Montclair is heading a conference which is issuing of beautiful trophies from the leading professional and business men and women of the state.
The six courts at Bordentown, the covered grandstand seating four hundred people in comfort through the afternoon heat, the beautiful campus of the school and the infinitely beautiful town. School itself, all these point to one of the most successful tournaments yet held in the East.

Regeneration Theme of New Love-Drama
Powerful Cast and Stirring Climaxes Feature Racing Film, "The Rainmaker," at the Lincoln.
Realism—with a capital R—is the outstanding characteristic of Paramount's gripping romance-drama, "The Rainmaker," which comes to the Lincoln Theatre this Thursday. Ernest Torrence, William Collier, Jr., and Georgia Hale are the picturemakers of Gerald Beaumont's widely read magazine story, "Heavenbent."
The atmosphere of the race track around which the early part of the action centers is real, typical and vividly picturesque. Clarence Badger, the director, filmed a series of racing scenes that are said to be the last word in thrill and excitement.
A dozen famous jockeys on an equal number of thoroughbred race horses stage a real race in which Collier participates. While in the lead, the hero is thrown by the horse and trumped upon by the on-coming racecars, while the thousands he stands react to the horror of the accident.
Again, in one of the later agains in the picture, Badger has reproduced with amazing fidelity a dance hall scene of other days.
The realism here is heightened by a fierce hand-to-hand battle in
Morales Makes Lone Hit Against City Isl. Giants

The solitary hit came in the third inning from the bat of Moraes, third baseman of the visitors. He slammed the ball on a line between third and shortstop for a clean hit.
The score by innings was: H.R.E. Blue Sox. 0-0 0 0 0 0 0-0 1 3 Giants ... 0 0 1 0 0 2 3 x-11 17 2
ROYAL GIANTS IN 2 VICTORIES
Last Sunday the Brooklyn Royal Giants, members of the Eastern Colored League, won two games from Bay Ridge by the scores of 9 to 6 and 10 to 2. The Brooklyn tossers, with their big bats, hit the offerings of the Bay Ridge pitchers to all corners of the lot in the first game.
Dick Hubbard for the Royals and Joe La Bate were the opposing pitchers in the box. La Bate was removed when he was hit on the left hand in the fifth inning, but he stuck the inning out, Purvere finishing the game, and the Royals took to his offerings freely, especially in the seventh, with three on bases. Rector hit over the left field, clearing the bags.

The later events of the story occur in a little border town in the Southwest, and it is here that the plot reaches a tremendous climax. The whole town is stricken with the plague through lack of water; a raging fire breaks out; it is cooked as though the town is ill. Owed, emotional moment, and the jockey prays for him and his prayer is answered by a spectacular cloudburst. Through the veneer of the race track, the dance hall, the fire and the flood, there flashes forth as fine and human and sincere a story of romance and regeneration as has ever been seen on the silver screen.

The Friese School Makes Bid for Support of This Community
The Friese School Makes Bid for Support of This Community
Located at 244 Lenox avenue near 122d street, is that unique school for kettledrums (tympant) and percussion instruments, under the personal direction of the famous artist, Alfred Friese. Of recent entry in the pedagogical field of the music world, this institution, the only one of its kind anywhere, which is exclusively devoted to teaching how to play correctly and from an artistic angle, kettledrums, snare drums, bells, xylophone, marimba and all other instruments of the "battery" of an orchestra, has already received astonishing encouragement from professional and amateur drummers.
Mr. Friese, the founder and director, having had the advantage of a Leipzig conservatory education, has given during the last 16 years' (1899-1926) association with the New York Philharmonic Orchestra, numerous interviews to music critics, writers and educators, wherein he tried to acquaint the musical public with the truth as to the percussions.
"During the past 20 years as a symphony artist," he remarked. "I have had ample opportunity to realize the handicaps the aspiring percussion player has to contend with. Heretofore, and notably in America, has the so-called battery of the orchestra received little appreciation not only by the concertgoer, but by musicians as well. One need only read the biography of Beethoven, Mahler, Berlioz, Mendelssohn or Meyerberer or read their scores or those of Wagner, Rimsky-Korsakov, Brahms, Tschalkovsky, Richard Straus, Stravinski or to know for themselves. The sort of drumming is so easy or unimportant as many perhaps still think, why do the orchestra personal managers continue to go to Germany for eligible tympanists and percussion players?
"The truth of the matter is that drummers would, so to speak, after a few lessons in the rudiments of technical execution, commence their careers as 'professionals' in a five or six-six piece band and graduate after years and years of experience of second and third-rate theatres and motion picture houses. In some cases, of course, there are players of this type in the opera and symphony orchestras, but as soon as more capable material is at hand, they are replaced. To be a really able percussionist requires an匀调 and palistinating musical foundation.
"Moreover, the trend in modern composition has sensed the immense musical potentialities of the percussion instruments and I am convinced that their exploitation has only begun. This condition naturally, will all the more expose unmercifully the incompetent tympanist or drummer, as well as emphasize the importance for musicians in this indispensable department of the modern orchestra."
Co-operating with this new school in bringing to the attention of students, teachers and musical public generally the purposes set forth are distinguished educators such as Mr. George H. Gartlan, supervisor of music for the elementary and high school) system of the Board of Education; Prof. Hollis Dann, director of the summer courses for music for the University and Prof. Dykema, director of the summer courses for musical supervisors at Columbia University.
Numbering among the leading conductors, music critics and musicians who are enthused over Mr. Friese the school are: Arthur Bodansky, Wilhelm Furtwauengler, Ossip Grabillowitsch, Edwin Franko Goldman, Henry Hadley, Fritz Reiner, Kurt Schurtberg, Josef Stransky, Willem Van Hoogstraten, Prof. S. A. Baldwin of City College, New York; Richard Union, Prof. W. H. Hall of Columbia University; Maurice Halpern, critic, Stats Zeitung; W. J. Henderson, critic, the Sun; Leonard Liebling, critic, New York American; Ely Ney; Pitta Sanborn, critic, the Evenfim Telegram.

Many Upsets Mark Week's Play—Mrs. Smith Defeats Mrs. Conick
BY ARTHUR E. FRANCIS.
The Second Harlem Open Tennis
Tournament under the auspices of
the E. & S. T. Asn' came to a
conclusion on Saturday afternoon,
July 10, when Eyre Salch and Mrs.
Emma Leonard were victors in the
Men's and Ladies' Singles events,
respectively.
Salch was opposed by George
Smith, his doubles partner, and
Mrs. Leonard battled against Mrs.
Estelle Alston, one of the few
promising lady players in New
York.
Play started on Saturday, July 3,
with a large entry in the various
events, continuing throughout the
following week, during which time
there were many startling upsets.
Chief of these were found in the
straight sets defeat of Mrs. Elsie
Conkle, New York's No. 1 ranking
lady player, by Mrs. Rhoda Smith,
who by a remarkably well played
game matched strokes and generalis
ship with the top ranking
player, and surprised the gallery
by clearly outplaying Mrs. Conkle.
Whatever might have contributed to the defeat of Mrs. Corkick beyond the brilliant playing of Mrs. Smith, it is generally conceded that while the topnotchers are human and subject to lapses of form same as any other player of the same occasion, aapse should only this occasionalapse should only set or sets, and not matches against opponents below their class, therefore all credit must go to Mrs. Smith for the biggest upset in tennis thus far this season in New York City. Another upset was registered when Louis Jones of New Rochelle ranked as No. 2. National Junior put out Fred Johnson in straight sets at 6-3, 6-3, in the fourth round. Johnson found in Jones a youngster well equipped with tennis brains and a very good volley. In this match Jones captured the net position at every opportunity, and withstood all attempts of Johnson to dislodge him from the net, with the result that Jones was able to turn many of Johnson's shots into winning ones for himself.
J. Trottman of New Rochelle, rated as No. 3 National Junior, and teammate of Jones, also got in the limelight when he put out Hughes a new player in Harlem, who has shown enough to place him among the top notchers. Dr. Richardson, another player from New Rochelle, showed up wonderfully well, putting out such players as R. Ponder and W. Kramer, as he was stopped by Champion, Soitch.
It is no fault of Salutch and Smith in that in all these local tournaments, where the entries do not include the topnotchers of other states, that they are always found in the final round, with the same results, that of Salutch defeating Smith, but from the standpoint of public interest, a match between these two stars very much outclassed Smith. The results are always anticipated, and a match that has no element of doubt as to its ultimate result fails to be interesting. Salutch and Smith know each other's game like a book, and previous contests between them have shown that Salutch outclasses Smith about as much as they both outclass the field of players that enter those local tournaments.
Smith, however, put up a wonderful battle in the first set and gave the champion all kinds of trouble for a while, but the fierce pace and the extremed hot surprise of Smith and Smith was the first to wilt. Salutch taking the first set at $6
Saitch, who appears to be in wonderful physical condition this season, kept up his dazzling speed, and captured the next two sets at 6-4, 6-1, winning the match in straight sets. In the tables' ewent, after Mrs. Smith defeated Mrs. Conick, most everyone expected her to come through to the finals, but she ran afoul of Mrs. Estelle Alston in the semi-finals, and the latter, using a powerful cross court cut stroke, and deep drives to the corners of the base lines, coupled with a nice net attack, kept Mrs. Smith on the defensive, and after the first few rounds, she won the conqueror of Mrs. Conick was herself about to be conquered, which Mrs. Alston easily did in straight sets at 6-1, 6-2.
On the other side of the draw,
Mrs. Leonard found her advance
blocked by Mrs. F. Gittens, the most promising of the younger lady players in New York, both advancing to the semi-final round through defeat, by the former, of Mrs. Daisy Reed of Corona, at 3-6, 6-3, 6-0, and the latter, of Mrs. H. Williams at 6-1, 5-2.
Mrs. Gittens fully came up to expectations, losing at 6-4-4, 6-4, which shows that Mrs. Leonard had to battle for all her points. There are some who are overthusastic about Mrs. Gittens, and predict far too much at this stage of her development, forgetting that in tennis experience counts for much. In due time Mrs. Gittens will come into her own, and it is hoped that her many friends and admirers will not do anything to hinder that development. In the finals against Mrs. Alston, Mrs. Leonard again against front her at tennis experience, which dictated her to keep the ball in play, and allow Mrs. Alston to herself. Mrs. Alston, who plays a rugged, forceful game, exhibits no patience in long rallies, and wins or loses quickly. Mrs. Leonard therefore only had to wait for a net or out off the racket of her opponent to gain the points needed to win.
An analysis of the play shows that most of the points secured by the winner were on errors by the loser, and a most remarkable thing being that the loser had more earned points than the winner, an almost same reading, and a same won and lost, which were 6-3, 6-2 in favor of Mrs. Leonard. Mrs. Leonard's ability to keep the ball in play in face of the fierce stroking of Mrs. Alston was truly remarkable. There were many exchanges of well placed, strong drives by both players; the steadiness and experience of Mrs. Leonard stood out as the most important factor of her victory. Mrs. Leonard by winning secured a loss on the beautiful Cobbtrophy, donated by Mr. Cobbs of Englewood, N. J., in 1825, and won that year by Mrs. Elsele Conick.
The men's doubles between Saitch and Smith and Spooner and Hughes, finalists, were stopped by rain, after the former pair had led at one time and 6-2 in the played off during the interstate match games on Saturday, July 17, between the New York and New Jersey Tennis Associations in the return match of their annual contests.

MAGAZINE SECTION THIRD SECTION
Columbia University Professor Studying Racial Admixture
Dr. Melville J. Herskovits, Fellow in Anthropology of the National Research Council of Washington, in interview with The Amsterdam News, makes known for the first time some of the results of his exhaustive study of measurements and genealogies of a large number of Negro men, women and children in Harlem, and students of Howard University.
AMERICAN Negroes represent a much greater amount of race mixture than has been generally recognized in the past. according to results of the research on race-crossing which has been conducted for the past three years, with special reference to the American Negroes, by Dr. Melville J. Herskovits of Columbia University. Dr. Herskovits, who has been carrying on his investigation as Fellow in Anthropology of the National Research Council of Washington, has obtained measurements and genealogies of a large number of people in Harlem and at Howard University, and has also measured many Negro children in Harlem. It is on the basis of the material gathered mainly at Howard that he comes to his conclusion as to the amount of race crossing.
The mixture, according to his results, is comprised of three racial stocks—the European, the African and the American Indian. Only 20% of the men who were measured claim to be without any mixture at all, and, although this proportion of those who are pure Negro may be somewhat low for the entire Negro population, he believes that it is not very far from the actual percentage. One-third of the genealogies which were obtained by him gave partial ancestry as American Indian, and this is regarded as a very important fact, for, while the individual Negroes who have Indian ancestry are, of course, generally aware of it, it has never been recognized that the proportion of persons possessing it is as large as 33 per cent, even by Negroes themselves, while the fact has been totally overlooked by those persons, not Negroes, who have studied the problem.
EUROPEAN ANCESTRY. The European ancestry seems to come mainly from the northwest of Europe. That is, the greater part of the known white ancestors of these men are English, Scottish, French and German, while the American Indian element consists of tribes which were found along the Eastern seaboard, now for the most art extinct or practically extinct. A large problem that is yet to be solved is that of the regions in Africa from which the Negro ancestry of American Negroes came. Dr. Herskovits believes that such tribes as the Yoruba, the Ashanti, the Ewe, and the Tshi contributed largely to this element, but it is almost impossible to more than guess at the facts, which must be studied intensively before the knotty problem can be solved.
GENEALOGIES VALID.
An important refutation of the claim that Negro genealogists are not valid has also come out of Dr. Herskovits' work. By dividing the men measured into classes of greater or less amounts of Negro and white ancestry, he was able to show, by the use of physical measurements which he took, that the claims as to the amounts

Household and Personal Sanitation
THIS, in my experience, means sunshine, hot water and soap—these three requisites and plenty of them.

of each race represented in each group are quite valid. That is, a group of men who claim to be without any mixture at all will have physical traits which, when compared with the same traits in pure African Negroes, are almost identical. If another group, which, claiming to have a small amount of white mixture, be compared next, it will be found that on the average they will be somewhat less like the Africans and a bit nearer to the averages for white populations. A group claiming to be about the same amount of white and Negro will be still more like whites, while a fourth group, whose genealogies as given by them, show them to be more white than Negro, approach very closely to the white averages in their appearance.
SCHOOL CHILDREN MEASURED
Measurements of a large number of Harlem school children show that the growth of Negro children is faster than that of white. Measurements of 1,500 boys taken in Public School 89 show that the average height of Negro boys is about two inches greater, age for age, than that of white boys, while in weight they are, on the average, from three to four pounds heavier. Thus it is seen that there is a racial factor at work.

By means of the hands people come in direct physical contact with the external world. This contact is almost continuous. Germs and bacteria, as well as organic and inorganic pollenes, through this daily contact with the hands, reach the mouth and then proceed to the stomach and intestines. In some cases these germs and bacteria make a detour from the mouth to the nose and lungs. Many instances of this contamination are unavoidable. Social customs demand the shaking of hands with friends and new acquaintances. Some of the hands we shake are not clean. Sometimes our own hands are in the same way unclean by coming in contact with the dust, dirt or bacteria.
Thus, we should be on the alert to have the hands thoroughly washed and the mouth cleansed after, and always before, eating the daily meals. In no other way can the effects of hand contamination be avoided. Household cleanliness means the free use of hot water, soap and sunshine. By the use of these we get sanitation—requites for the sick room as well as the well room. Years ago fumigation of the sick room was almost a religious practice; the patient was able to leave the room. Today the Board of Health does not call for this procedure. It does, however, demand the use of plenty of soap and hot water, cleanliness throughout the course of the illness, strict isolation of the patient and the avoidance of all bacterial contagion from the pa-
Dr. Herskovits, with the assistance of Miss Zora Hurston, a student of Barnard College, and Mr. Lewis I. King, a graduate of Howard University, has been continuing his work in Härterm during the present year, in an attempt to see in what way and to what extent this element of racial mixture affects the development of these children. To do this, it has been necessary to obtain genealogical information, and this has been had from the parents. They have measured children in Junior High School 139, and then gone to the families of these children, where they have obtained genealogies and measurements from their parents, brothers and sisters. The factor of environment is an important one also, however, and this is being studied by measuring groups who have different surroundings.
Miss Hurston is engaged this summer in measuring well-to-do families in Harlem, while Mr. King is working among the rural families of West Virginia. With all this material assembled for comparison, it is felt that many important problems of the effect of race-crossing and of environment on the physical development of the American Negro will have a great deal of light thrown on them.

tient by the free use of hot water and soap to the hands and face and mouth of those coming in contact with the sick room and its contents.
Keeping files from the sick room or killing any found therein is a big factor in preventing the spread of contagion. Clothing, furs, bedding or other valuable articles recently used by a person sick with a communicable disease are safe for others to use if they be thoroughly washed with hot water and soap. Books, pillows and mattresses should be discarded, for they cannot be washed.
I have known many families, parents, grandparents and children to be completely wiped out in about four or five years by not attending to these rules and precautions.
Southern Cotton Monopoly Menaced
Opening of the great Sennar dam, on the blue Nile in the Sudan, Africa, is expected to make some 300,000 acres previously barren land suitable for the production of cotton. A crop of 400,000,000 pounds a year is anticipated when irrigation and cultivation are fully developed over the area. Four years were spent in building the dam and the work gave employment to thousands of natives who labored side by side with modern excavating implements

ONE of the biggest jokes ever perpetrated in this country would be for some Congressman, mindful of the oath he has taken to uphold the entire Constitution of the United States, to rise up in Congress and ask for an appropriation to enforce the Fifteenth Amendment and that part of the Fourteenth Amendment designed to protect the rights of citizens with coloring matter in their skins. On the other hand, a sum estimated at half a billion has already been spent by Congress in an attempt to enforce the Eighteenth, and recently another $29,000,000 was voted in trying to sweep the ocean of booze dry.
It is a notorious fact that the Fifteenth and that part of the Fourteenth Amendment relating to citizens of color has been a hibition workers, which means nine hundred additional workers for Coolidge and the Repub
dead letter since President Hayes ordered the withdrawal of the Federal troops from the South in 1877. Southern legislators make it an especial boast in Congress that these two amendments are violated in their part of the country. Recently the unappeasable Cole Blease in a protest against sending colored citizens to high school and college declared that if the latter "were permitted to vote in South Carolina" he would get anywhere from 90 to 95 per cent of their vote. Therefore, it is a matter of common knowledge to every man jack in office from President Coolidge downward, who will tell the public that these amendments "that these amendments are about as sacred as a sidewalk."
Be it noted that that part of the Fourteenth Amendment relating to rights of white men receives as much observance as other parts of the Constitution usually do, and were it to be violated Blease, Heilin, et al., would be among the first to set up a roar.
Since the passage of the dry law these neglected amendments are receiving more publicity than at any time since Reconstruction, wet orators and Negro writers and speakers using it as a taunt against the drys, helpless, to the great majority of the people, these three amendments in question, taken together, are unpopular. The question is, therefore, why is there so much effort made to enforce the Eighteenth and none whatever to enforce the Fourteenth and Fifteenth?
The reason is this: In this vast appropriation made for the enforcement of the dry law the politicians have the largest and steadiest supply of food ever founded of the Republic. With the sum recently voted goes the employment of nine hundred pro-

for Coolidge and the Republican party. It is true that the dry law was put over by: the Democrats, but Woodrow Wilson queered the game and caused the shifting of this vastest slush fund ever to the Republicans by sponsoring the League of Nations.
In other words, the dry law is enforced because of the large political patronage it affords. It is merely a matter of money, because the liquor interests were and still are among the richest in the country. Touch that issue, pro or con, and it means the outpouring of money. Since the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment sixty years ago the Republicans have been in power forty-four. They have forgotten the amendments designed for the protection of their particular pet, the Negro, but how husy with the dry law? Note President Coolidge's recent drastic rulings. With all that fund to draw from, another Republican administration is assured. And the mouths of the Democrats aren't watering to get at it, oh no!
Another reason for the strenuous efforts made to enforce the dry law is that the United States, being a very rich country, is cursed with reformers, uplifters and other parasites who panhandle from the guilful rich under the pretense of freeing the masses from "the demon drink." The Anti-Saloon League recently admitted to spending nearly forty-five million dollars so collectors and wind wind jammers like William Jennings Bryan, Hobson and Sam Small, the evangelist, have put on the feedbag to the extent of sums ranging in six figures.
The W. C. T. U. also spent several millions of dollars so collected. In other words, the dry law is the fattest dog that has ever come down the pike for the political and the panhandling fists. There is also the large

Harmon Achievement Awards
OUTSTANDING musicians, artists, scientists, educators, religious leaders, university professors, economists and business men will serve as judges for the Harmon Awards for distinguished achievement by Negroes of American residence. This announcement was made today by the Commission on Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches, 105 East Twenty-second street, New York, which has been asked to administer the awards. These judges will consider nominations and make awards to Negroes of American residence who have made creative achievements in the seven major fields of literature, music, fine arts, industry including business, science including invention, education and religion, and also to a candidate, white or Negro, who has made an outstanding achievement in race relations.
The awards are offered by the Harmon Foundation "to give annual recognition and stimulus to creative work among Negroes." The period for making nominations or filing applications is open until August 1 this year. Names of successful candidates will be, announced about December 1.
"I believe that the Harmon Foundation will afford a rallying point about which ambitious Negro men and women can gather," said William E. Harmon, president of the Harmon Foundation, in telling of the appointment of the
amount of graft to be collected from the bootleggers, who are also strong for the dry law. How then to go about getting the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments enforced by the Republican or any other party? Make it profitable for reformers and politicians, who however which may you better justice are like automobiles, who simply won't go without gas. Unless big money becomes involved in the so-called Negro question as it did in the period prior to the Civil War, the Negro, with his two amendments, may expect as little attention from Congress, Republican or otherwise, as a witch-digger at a bankers' convention or a hobo would from a pocketbook dropper, a banker worth Building or a gold-digging dame. It's the old story of to him that hath.
And were the Negroes to subscribe ten million dollars tomorrow it is safe to say that the cotton, curpentine and other cotton products are cheap in the South would retaliate with double the amount.
Insanity Studied
Negro physicians will be interested in a bulletin just issued by the U. S. Department of Commerce, which shows that in 1910 there were 12,910 Negro patients, or 131 per 100,000 persons of our racial group, as compared with 213 for the white population in hospitals for mental diseases. Statistics for the year 1923 indicate a marked increase both in the total number of persons and the total population for each racial group. During the 12-year period, Negro patients in these hospitals increased from 131 to 192 and white patients increased from 213 to 259 per 100,000 of the population of their groups.
The report explains that the comparatively low rate for Negroes is doubtless due to the lack of adequate hospitals for them in the South; but that in parts of the country where they are admitted, as patients, to state hospitals without discrimination, the rates for them generally exceeds those for the whites. In 1923 there were 20.084 Negroes and 244.968 white patients in hospitals for mental disease.
Vision and Movies
Specialists in eye diseases claim that if you can read, write, or do other work without tiring your eyes, there is no harm in going to the movies. Tests re-identify that persons showed that there who eye fatigue after watching a motion picture play also became

"No self-respecting Negro desires to secure advantage through special favor without due consideration being given to his merit. All he asks is a fair field of opportunity, words of encouragement, a sympathetic understanding, and the assurance that his work will be judged on a par with the work of the white race, without either unfair discrimination, prejudice, or, on the other hand, any undue support of paternalism."
It is believed by those who are interested in these awards that there are probably few organizations in this country that can do as much for colored men and women of ability and character as this independent, courageous and far-sighted foundation which is consecrating its best endeavors toward the equalization of opportunity for all Americans, irrespective of race, color, or creed.
The following list includes many of the prominent persons who will serve as judges in their respective fields of award:

Migration Checked Negro Population
The unsettled conditions due to the World War and migration of fully 500,000 colored people from the South has had a telling effect upon the growth of the colored population. In the year 1920, for the first time since data has been available (1850) the ratio of the number of Negro children under five years of age for 1,000 women 15 to 44 was less than for white women of the same age.
Back in 1850 there were 741 colored, as compared with 659 white children under five per 1,000 women of each racial group, or an excess of 82 colored children. In 1850 the excess reached its highest point with 174 more colored than white children. Since then a gradual decrease has been indicated for each ten-year period, the number of colored children under five having decreased from 760 in 1850 to 429 in 1920, as compared with a decrease from 588 to 471 for white children. In 1920, during the 40-year period, 1880 to 1920, there was a decrease of 331 Negro, as compared with a decrease of only 115 white children per 1,000 women of the specified age group.
From 1910 to 1920, the period of our greatest social disturbance resulting from the war and migration, there was for the United States a a whole decrease of 90 Negro, as compared with 13 white children under five in the same group. And in this connection it is interesting to note that the greatest decreases occurred in those states from which the largest numbers of people migrated.
The State of Oklahoma showed a decrease of 134 Negro children per 1,000 women; Texas, 126; Mississippi, 120; Georgia, 107; Arkansas and Florida, 103 each; Alabama, 83; South Carolina, 86; Tennessee, 77; North Carolina, 65, and Maryland and Virginia, 52 each. In the northern states Massachusetts and New Jersey showed increases of 33 and 8, respectively, while New York showed a decrease of only 1; Ohio, 17; Pennsylvania, 20; Indiana, 21; Illinois, 41, and Missouri, 46. From the data indicated, it appears that a greater number of Negro families migrated to Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Ohio than to Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri.

Italy and England Casting Covetous Eyes on the Abyssinian Nation
states "that the Abyssinian Government intends to protest at the forthcoming assembly of the League of Nations against the recent Anglo-Italian agreement, which, despite the reassuring statement of Austen Chamberlain in the British House of Commons, Abyssinia and even certain European statesmen regard as a prelude to dividing Abyssinia into spheres of economic interest between Great Britain and Italy.

European statesmen regard a

"Abyssinia is the last uncolonized and independent region in Africa except Liberia. Italy has long coveted it." It is believed in diplomatic circles here that in return for Italy's support in the Mosul controversy with Turkey, Great Britain now is willing to further Italy's plan for expansion in Abyssinia.
"The Anglo-Italian agreement looks toward the building of an Italian railway through western Abyssinia, from the Italian colony of Ericea to the Italian colony of Somalia, and toward according Italy an economic monopoly not only in the zone of this railway but throughout Abyssinia.
"Britain, at the same time, claims a special interest in the region of the Upper Nile and the right to regulate the water of Lake Tsana in Abyssinia, whence flows the river Nile."
"A copy of the leading Abyssinian newspaper, Peace and Light, dated June 10, which has just reached Paris, protests vigorously against the terms of the Anglo-Italian agreement.
"The economic right of England and Italy in Abyssinia are detailed in the newspaper." said the newspaper.
"All rights in the neighborhood of the Blue Nile are accorded to England. England, on the other hand, would not oppose the building of an Italian railway in Abyssinia.
"Thus one member of the League of Nations learns through the newspapers that two other members have decided that one will take certain economic rights around the lake belonging to the third."
If such things are true, it must be asked what has become of the League of Nations. Perhaps it has remained at Corfu."
"Abyssinaia, it is pointed out, has been a member of the League since 1823. The newspaper is unable to understand how such projects can ever be rumored regarding 'an independent people,' simply because this people is far away and because a few chauvinists like to talk about victories and aggrandizement of their colonies."
Segregation Issue Confronts Montclair Citizens
Dr. W. G. Alexander, president of the National Medical Association, reports to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People the rise of segregation in Montclair, N. J., where suit has been brought to prevent the sale of property to a colored man. A group of Montclair white people alleged to have signed an agreement to be on ease or Negroes, have begun legal proceedings against one of their number, Harold D. Speer, who recently sold a house which was subsequently occupied by the E. J. Sadler Realty, Mr. Sadler, it is alleged, being colored. Mr. Sadler reported that the property had been sold to a New York colored man, whose name he declined to divulge. "He added," the newspaper report says, "that he new nothing of the action started by the action so far as he knew. Speer would consummate the sale, which has not been entirely completed."

Hindus "White" by Copeland Bill
Measure Introduced to Remove Ambiguities in Laws and Courts
WASHINGTON. July 12.—To prevent what he considers an intended harship to some 3,000 Hindus in the United States, Senator Copeland has introduced a bill to define "white persons" in the determination of those who are eligible for American citizenship. The measure, according to Sandra N. Ghose, secretary of the India Freedom Foundation, who has been in Washington conferring with Senator Copeland, Hiram Johnson and other members of the Immigration Committee, also would clear up an ambiguity in the present law enacted in 1750. The bill, Senator Copeland believes, will do much to clear up the confusion existing in the immigration and among the naturalization office because of the vagueness of the original statute. It will not, according to Senator Copeland, affect the Immigration Law or bring more Hindus into the country, but merely protect the rights of those who are here.
The bill would define "white persons," according to the classification adopted by the Immigration Commission, which, under the Chairmanship of Senator Dillingham, prepared a dictionary of races and peoples, which was officially approved by Congress. According to this, among the members of the white rae belong "the dark Hindus and other peoples of India, still more emphatically because of their possessing an Aryan speech, relating them still more closely to the white race, as well as because of their physical type. According to the early statute," Mr. Ghosseid, "only white persons and those of African nativity or descent are eligible to become American citizens. For 133 years this phrase "white person" has been interpreted to include the Hindus as a branch of the Aryan race.
"In 1923, however, Justice Sutherland, in an advisory opinion asked for by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, held that the words 'free white persons' are words of common speech to be interpreted in accordance with the understanding of the man in the street, and not in accordance with the conclusions of the ethnologists. Since that decision an effort has been going forward to cancel the citizenship papers of Hindus al ready naturalized.
"The injustice of this procedure," Mr. Ghose said, "is three-fold. It makes these Hindus who have become American citizens stateless, because they have foresworn their allegiance to the British Empire, and Great Britain will not take them back. It makes their wives stateless and, in a number of instances, they have married American citizens to Cable Act, lose their citizenship if they marry aliens ineligible to citizenship. Finally, it works great hardship to the hundreds of Hindu immigrants who have bought land along the Pacific Coast and who, if declared ineligible to citizenship, must forfeit their holdings under the Allen Land Laws."
Interracial Good Will Should Be Taught
PHILADELPHIA, July 12—"If hatred can be taught, friendship, justice, and good-will can be taught also." declared Dr. Augustus O. Thomas, Maine State Commissioner of Education and President of the World Federation of Education Associations, in his appeal to members of the National Education Association Wednesday, to teach racial and international understanding in the schools.
"Race and national prejudice, and hatred are matters of cultivation and not or inheritance. It is just as possible to encourage civilization it is to change the course of a river from its channel out upon the barren lands and make them rich in fruitage.
"It is true that we inherit race characteristics and qualities, but attitudes are matters of education. Childhood is unprejudiced. If a child grows up with race hatred, he is likely to be racist. But he it is because they have been taught to him both by precept and example."

"Homogeneous Nation a Myth"
A nation can be made out of the most unpromising, the most diverse racial stock, given time and a more or less common and comfortable environment, according to Prof. Griffith Taylor in a lecture on "The Races of Europe," which he delivered before the Royal Colonial Institute at Sydney, Australia. Prof. Taylor believes with most of the modern prominent ethnologists that no such thing as a pure race exists anywhere, except perhaps in the unpenetrated regions of central Asia. All the known races are mixed races including the pure Nordic ones. A homogeneous nation therefore is only a myth. According to modern scientists what was at one time labeled as racial characteristics is now known to be only local differences.
"I wish," said Prof. Taylor, "that our politicians would realize this. It is germane to many of our most important problems today. Foolishly people imagine that racial mixture is necessary to maintain the most virile nation on earth, there is more than one racial stock."
In speaking of the region in which human life probably originated, Prof. Taylor stated that the latest theory evolved seems to point to Turkestan, where the climate is such as to have made it suitable for the evolution of man. Ethnologists are attempting to prove that the successive waves of migration which brought Europe and left everywhere traces of their prehistoric visitations originally came from Turkestan. The idea is being abandoned that the earliest civilization had its seat in certain parts of France where remains of vory primitive man have been found. On the contrary, said Prof. Taylor, it would appear that these points in France were farthest away from center of attemption, from the fringe of civilization, on which the weaker races were forced to hang pre-viiously in little, isolated pests."
Anthropologists have found that certain peoples in the Alps were more closely related to the inhabitants of northern India than to their fellow-Europeans, and the withdrawn Britons with the early Britons in feature, custom and bloodthirstiness, Prof. Taylor said in conclusion.
Slave Trade Still Carried on in Africa
(Preston News Service)
CAPTENOWN, S. A., July 12—
Startling revelations of slave trade in African province of Bechuana land came out this week, when Simon Ratshosa, one of the native princes of the largest tribe of Bumangwatos, testified in his trial for an attempt to murder Chief Tschekedi.
Simon said that Masawara slaves told him their masters have the power of life or death over them. The penalty for killing a slave is no more than for killing sheep and cattle. The slaves declared their host but hummer shot them if they run away, and do not pay them for their work. The Bumangawatos make Masawara go into the wild fields to steal Masawarl children and bring them into slavery.
The prince, during cross-examination, said that he had seen Masala slaves with reins around their necks being driven like horses, and has seen others burned at the stake. He said the interference, because the tribal headmen control the rich slave trade, and really rule the country.

Will Enable Pittsburgh Institution to Pay About
35 Per Cent
(Preston News Service)
PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 12.—Liquid assets of the Steel City Banking Company, the institution that was closed by the State Banking Department January 12, were increased $6,435 Wednesday by the sale of the bank's building, together with its furniture and fixtures. Frank W. Jackson, special deputy banking commissioner, directed the sale, which was conducted by L. B. Post, auctioneer. The building was sold for $35,151.61, but of that amount $31,101.61 will be consumed by liens. Furniture and fixtures brought $1,385. The company conducted a private bank at $01 wide avenue. The institution came under the jurisdiction of the State Banking Department under laws passed by the last Legislature. It was closed about a year after the state had made its first examination.
It was learned last Wednesday night that a dividend of about 35 per cent will be paid to the 7,000 depositors who had upwards of $300,000 in the bank. The first dividend is expected to be ready some time in September. The Rev. Moses S. Hunter was president, Atty. Arthur D. Stevenson, cashier, and Rev. J. C. Austin a member of the Board of Directors.

Increased Service
TAKING OUR CIRCULATION last week as an indication, we are led to believe that the reading public welcomed and was pleased with our initial presentation of The Amsterdam News in twenty eight-column pages. Scores went to the trouble of putting their congratulations in writing, while hundreds verbally expressed their approval to the various members of the staff.
WE EXTEND our thanks and here express our gratefulness for the confidence placed in us. We are not forgetful of the fact that the increased size of the paper at an increased price carries with it an increased obligation to render an increased service to our community, our racial group, our state and nation.
The South Condemns
Itself
"IF THE SOUTH insists on complete nation-wide observance of the Eighteenth Amendment, New Jersey should insist on the complete nation-wide observance of the Fourteenth Amendment." Thus runs a sentence in a copyright article by Mark Sullivan in the New York Tribune. Mr. Sullivan then sets forth in his article the claim made on the part of the Southern States that the Fourteenth Amendment is already enforced:
There is not now any law on any Southern statute book which fails to conform to the Constitution. Every one of the existing state laws in the South affecting suffrage that has been submitted to the Supreme Court of the United States on a question of constitutionality has been held constitutional. The last of these test cases came from Alabama; and one of the justices of the Supreme Court of the United States who declared the law constitutional was a man who had himself fought in the Northern Army in the Civil War and had been rather gravely wounded, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes. The South has now no laws which conflict with the Federal Constitution, and is indulging in no talk about referenda or other gestures aiming to limit, or qualify, or neutralize the effect of the Federal Constitution in its states—in the sense that some wet states are proposing to qualify or limit the application of the Eighteenth Amendment to them.
One ought not to make this assertion without adding that the Negro in the South does not vote in large numbers at general elections. But the reason he does not vote is not concerned with the Federal Constitution. This point was covered recently in Dispatch sent from the South to the Baltimore Sun by Frank R. Kent, from which the following sentences are taken:
"There is . . . no restriction whatever upon the right of registration or the high privilege of voting applying to the Negro that does not also apply to the white man. In the . . . primaries, it is true . . . that the state laws do restrict participation to the whites, but so far as the general election and registration are concerned there is not a word on the statute books of a discriminatory nature. Nor is there any unfairness toward the blacks in the administration of the laws. Negroes who apply for registration are treated exactly as are the whites. As a matter of fact, there
are in all Southern states many Negroes who regularly register and vote. If more of them do not, it is either because they lack interest or cannot meet the tests that apply to all. In other words, it is their own fault. [11] "[Southerners] very frankly avow the real situation. They will tell the world that if it were necessary to discriminate in order to eliminate the Negro from politics they would most certainly discriminate. If only unfair means would deprive him of the vote they would be used. . . . In the past, perhaps, it is stated, there may have
been discrimination against the Negro, but that time has gone. There is no discrimination now because none is necessary. The Negro in the South, with rare exceptions, has accepted the situation . . . he has lost all interest in politics. The futility of the thing, so far as he is concerned, is well understood. He has abandoned the habit of political thought and no longer makes an effort to register. Apparently he has acquiesced in the theory that government in the South is a matter to be administered by whites. That is about the situation. It is no longer necessary to have discriminatory election laws in the South. And it is undoubtedly true, as they tell you in these states, that there is today no test that applies to the Negro that does not also apply to the white man . . . there are in these states simple educational qualifications and a small poll tax, both of which are features of the election laws in various Northern and Western states. Obviously there is no legal bar raised against the Negro, except in the primary. There is apparently no reason why the Negro should not register under these Southern laws today just as easily and freely as the white man. And there would not be any discrimination against him either unless he tried too numerously to do so."
A RATHER LONG QUOTATION, but well worth the space devoted to it because in one breath it sets up the claim that the Fourteenth Amendment is enforced in the South and proves that discrimination exists beyond doubt. No restrictions on the right of registering at the polls; while at the same time limiting voting in the primaries to whites. Accusing the Negro of indifference toward the exercise of his right of franchise and at the same time making it clear that the Constitution would be violated if it were necessary to eliminate the Negro from politics, which at present is not necessary.
THE SOUTHERN CORRESPONDENT mentioned in the article then assumes that the Negro has "accepted the situation" and lost all interest in politics simply because he refuses to take part each year in elections which make a mockery of the Constitution and insult his intelligence.
IF MAYOR WALKER will only find some way to sound a curfew on the playing of pianos, phonographs and radios all through the night, we will say AMEN.
PROMPT ACTION on the part of the Alumni Association of Lincoln University is held responsible for the Rev. Walter B. Greenway's refusal to accept the presidency of the Pennsylvania institution. In addition to defending the Ku Klux Klan, the noted divine was born and educated in Tennessee.

EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES
Justice in Georgia
By ELBRIDGE COLBY
(In "The Nemon" for July 14.)
In the town of Americus, Ga., there is temporarily quartered a portion of Company K. 24th Infantry (colored), of the regular army. These doughboys have left their rifles and soldierly equipment many miles away and are temporarily in Americus to dig iron pipe out of the site of the now-abandoned Southern Field for transport and reinstallation in Fort Benning, where the wooden water mains are rotting away.
On September 1 of last year a white night watchman in a lumber yard had his "dinner" brought at about 10 o'clock by his wife and child. They came dawn a street through the Negro section of the town, past a crowd of Negroes congregated in front of a dance hall; as far as can be discovered they were not molested or accosted in any way. About an hour later, the family of three walked up the street, on a sidewalk eight feet ten inches wide. On the curb, with his back to the sidewalk, talking to another colored soldier of the same regiment, stood Private Smith, known as one of the best-dressed and best-behaved men in the 24th Infantry;
Bathing Beach Score:
Nothing to Nothing
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
The colored people here at the Capital have just won another victory over prejudice with the close of the last Congress in the matter of the bathing beach.
For years Congress provided a beautiful beach for white people from public funds, and made no provision for colored people whatever. For years we colored people objected to the wicked discrimination, until at last Congress granted us an appropriation of $25,000 (subsequently raising it to $75,000) for a Negro beach—a piece of discriminatory legislation that we never asked for, but to which we strenuously objected.
Then came a united effort to the part of the white people of the city to locate us over in Virginia, then in the germ-laden flats of Anacostia; their discrimination being that we should not appear on the great driveway where the white beach was. We finally won placement there after blasting everyone of the silly subterfuges to which they resorted.
Our beach began to rise with beautiful bath houses and porticoes amid the beauties of great oaks, weeping willows and Japanese cherry blossoms.
They organized such a vigorous and widespread campaign against us that Congress took up the case again and many bitter things were said there by some of the blatant "statesmen" who never lose an opportunity to slander the Negro. We put up such a fight that our friends there secured the demolition of both beaches, thus making the white people lose the one they had enjoyed for years.
One of our arch segregationists here, Col. Clarence Sherrill, superintendent of all public buildings and grounds, demolished our beach at once and left the white beach standing. As we predicted a universal movement then set in by the whites, including every one of our white papers, citizens' associations, boards of trade and chambers of commerce, big business houses and many high officials in both Houses of Congress, for permission to open the white beach since it 'was still standing and the people were sweltering in our summer's heat.
We caught Congressman Madden at the Illinois Athletic Club and he wired the President of the United States and several of us that if that beach was opened he would know the reason why. Hence the whites suffered last summer and we secured the destruction of their beach. This year they began their campaign again, only to find us as ever unyielding adversaries. Congress appropriated $345,000 for the construction of two beaches. I appealed to the President of the United States to vote the bill, as it wrote "color" into legislation. In spite of the argument he signed the bill. Then the whites began their second struggle for segregation in trying to keep our Jim Crow
he was wearing the uniform of the United States Army. The night watchman, named E. J. Fulbright, kicked him from behind in that part of the anatomy usually employed for seating purposes, kicked him into the road, and exclaimed: "Get off the sidewalk." The sidewalk, you will recall, was eight feet ten inches wide. The kicker declares that the soldier turned and said: "Who's going to make me?" Six other witnesses declared that Smith said nothing. In any event, Smith was unarmed. He made no threatening gesture. And yet Night Watchman Fulbright drew a gun and shot the soldier dead on the spot.
Although the offender was indicted he was not kept in jail in spite of the charge of murder against him. Three months later came the trial. The general argument for the defense was to the effect that the jury knew the law and knew they were sworn to defend the law, and that any southern gentleman would have done the same as did the kindly family man named Fulbright. Great stress was laid on the fact that this was a "Northern nigger" hailing from Montclair, N. J. A. Mr. Fort serving as attorney for the defense, recited the events of the years from 1860 to 1865 with many oratorical flourishes. He even referred with tender feelings to "our sainted and beloved commander, General Robert E. Lee."
Late in November another colored soldier had visited his permanent station at Fort Benning and while there had stolen an army automatic. At the time of the Fulbright trial he was in custody of the sheriff for carrying concealed weapons, and was also awaiting trial by a court-martial for the pifering of the pistol. Neither he nor his offense had anything to do with the Fulbright case. Yet, because the prosecution might emphasize the fact that Company K at Americus was unarmed and doing fatigue work, he was brought into court by the sheriff and seated near the jury, with the automatic dangling conspicuously. His name was not mentioned. No apparent reason existed for his appearance in that court at that time except a desire to prejudice the jury.
The proceedings of the court were signalized by the tremendous amount of chewing and spitting of tobacco that went on, and by the fact that all windows were kept tightly closed, just as if there were a law in Georgia that courts must suffocate justice with foul air.
Some officers of the army, legal advisers and higher commanders of the killed soldier, came to court to listen to the proceedings, wearing the uniforms which all officers are supposed to wear when on duty. Their uniforms brought forth many a slurring remark about "those damned northern officers." It was observed, by persons present, that the watchman accused of murdering the soldier had an intelligence and an appearance for below that of the average Negro soldier in the army. It was thought by some that the neat and soldierly appearance of Private Smith might possibly have been the provocation of the attack.
The verdict? Is there any question that an attack upon a Negro soldier would result—in such a court and in such a community and in such a State—in anything but an acquittal?
Dodging a Test Case
(From the Baltimore Sun.)
Refusal of the Supreme Court to pass on a test case which involved the legality of contracts binding property owners in Washington not to sell homes to Negroes establishes the right to bar them out of prescribed residence districts by this method. The effect of the decision is to leave in force injunctions issued by lower courts preventing such disposal of property where agreement has been entered into not to sell to a certain class or race. This issue has aroused a great deal of controversy in a number of cities. It has intensified racial animosities and from time to time brought about riotous conduct deplorable from every point of view. The Negroes of this city are entitled to opportunity to acquire good homes, to escape from alleys and slums, to raise their standards of living, to educate their children. They are an integral part of the community. Whatever helps them helps the city as a whole, and whatever is harmful to their physical, mental and moral welfare is inevitably reflected upon the general public

beach off of the great driveway, while the new white beach was to be located there. Two cabinet officers got into it, and we had to fight a large element in Congress; the Department of Buildings and Grounds, the Fine Arts Commission, and other powerful whites were arrayed against us. But Congressman Madden, being at the head of the all-powerful Appropriations Committee and appreciating the universal support he gets from the large Negro element of his constituency, stood with us and placed us on the coveted driveway. And then to make our victory complete when the last deficiency bill of forty-nine millions was reported he eliminated the whole item of $345,000 for both beaches, which leaves us with the score Nothing to Nothing, which is Equality.
Get Out and Achieve
To the Editor of The Amsterdam News.
Dear Sir:
Many schools and colleges have graduated our boys and girls this year. They are proud of their diplomas and we are proud of their achievements.
The question is: "What will those who have passed final examinations and obtained college diplomas do?" Whatever his chosen field of endeavor he can be assured he has within his own power the greatest asset to develop his efforts.
But even with this asset and desire to progress in an especial field, there would be cramped advancement without a certain amount of support. Success is assured any people who support each other. The same is true of individuals. Our inspiring young professional and business people need our support. Their success is made possible by the boost and push of the majority. This is encouraging to the young, and though we cannot all at the same time share in the immediate benefit, we will have built around and about us bulwarks of protection, financially and socially.
We must adopt the principles of financially entrenched peoples. There is a good motto: "Promote and encourage by precept among ourselves, industry and thrift, but cater principally to other peoples." Our guns are trained upon ourselves and we are bringing about self-destruction instead of "bringing home the bacon."
I want to encourage and I want all those who read this article to encourage our young men and women in their chosen fields of endeavor. I also want these young people to make themselves worthy of our encouragement. To do so, they must apply themselves diligently to their work.
Secondly, if they have something to sell, they must get out and sell it, and not remain in racial confines. Harlem is considered the present Negro, fatherland. The eyes of the world are turned to Negro-Harlem and its advance. Upon us our people depend the world over. What are we doing? Are we going out and bringing in, and planning, and strengthening and producing for purposes of expansion?
Instead there are those with us who have that painted smile. They take our cash and circulate it with good benefit to themselves; employ us at patry salaries, receive this same salary in trade and we remain impoverished. Are our eyes opened to these disadvantages? So long as these conditions are not rectified, so long as we live in houses owned by others, and are unable to employ each other and gain the necessary financial strength, so long will our boys and girls graduate from colleges to starve, sweep the subways or wash floors. Having the foundation of a good education or a thorough training in the profession or business to be practiced or sold, it is essential that we get out among other people and give our services to the best of our individual ability, that those back in our Harlem homeland settlement may be proud of our achievement.

Dear Sir:
Dear Sir:
I certainly enjoyed reading your editorial of July 7 under the caption "July 4, 1776-1926."
Your editorials, usually, have a deep, basic meaning, but the one of July 7 "stands out." It is as broad as it is important. Unless all of the readers of The Amsterdam News read it they have missed something great.
I do hope that the purpose for which this editorial was written will some day be served. But as stated by you: "time solves most problems and it will solve ours." I wonder. How long?

Dear Sir: Your position as editor of the leading colored paper in Greater New York, plus your interest in racial affairs, compels me to inform you that I have opened, on June 3rd, the first colored optometrical office in Brooklyn, at $27 Fulton street. My office is equipped with the latest instruments to optical science for tracing and my laboratories is complete for grinding and mounting of lenses.
I sincerely hope this will be of some interest to you, so far as our race is concerned. Should you wish any more information, just let me know. I am,

IT MATTERS not if your skin is dark
As the midnight jungle track,
I thrill to the beat of the song you sing
Feeling the torture and rack
That sundered the souls of your brother slaves
For hundreds of dead years back.
Under the march of your musical lines,
Under the tread of their feet,
I hear the wind in the jungle pines
And the drone of the tom-tom's beat,
With ebon savages under the sun
In the shimmering tropic heat.
Chance gave you the soul of a minstrel fair
Housed in a blackamoor's frame,
With your heart tuned high to the upper air
Though a scion of scorn and shame,
Refusing an outcast's usual lot
And turning it into famel
"Cincinnati's Colored Citizens"
By W. P. DABNEY. Published by The Dabney Publishing Co. 412 McAllister Street, Cincinnati, O. Price $3.25 postpaid.
THIS book of 440 pages is a strange conglomeration of all sorts of material. There are extracts from magazines and newspapers on various subjects relating to the Cincinnati Negro, there are hundreds of biographical sketches, there are accounts of churches and fraternal organizations. Some of this is in small type and some in large.
There are pages of short items, such as: "The first International Conference took place here this year" (no date) or "Dr. L. A. Cornish achieved distinction as a physician, acquiring valuable property, and last year returned with his wife to Washington, the city of his birth" (no date). It ends with pages of names of colored citizens, arranged alphabetically, without addresses, but placed under headings of city sections, as "East End," "Walnut," etc. And the book has no index, so that it is impossible to find any particular item without going through the whole volume.
Why Mr. Dabney did not write a real book is hard to understand, because when he does write, especially in the historical section of the book, he is always interesting. His account of the settling of the city is good, and some of his sketches of individuals are excellently done. But he only writes for a little time. Very shortly there will come "From The Union, we have the following extract" or "we read in The Crisis." An institution is by Lacado Hearn and we are grateful to have it saved for us. It concerns "Bucktown" and was written by Hearn in The Commercial Gazette in the seventies. It is a vivid picture of a terrible slum.
Mr. Dabney has some extremely interesting things to say regarding miscegenation. It will not be new to colored people, but it will certainly be new to many whites. From his account he did something to educate Mr. Schmildlapp and others. With all this material, one wishes that Mr. Dabney had made a worthy study, such as has been made of the colored people in Philadelphia, Boston and New York. Judging from my own experiences with my New York study, however, I suspect that, in compiling a sort colored encyclopedia, Blue Book for schmitt, he has taken the step most likely to bring him some return commensurate to his work.

Developing Monster Chorus for Sesqui
PHILADELPHIA, July 13.
The great festival chorus of colored singers to appear in a musical exhibition August 23 at the stadium of the Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition here is being rapidly developed by W. Franklin Hoxter. Hundreds of choral singers are assembling in various sections of the city regularly for the rehearsals. Remarkable voices have been discovered in the response to the general invitation to choir, club and solo voices being built up and harmonized for the great chorus. The exhibition will include not only the huge chorus of several hundred voices, but also talented instrumental soloists.
