COLORED WOMAN TO PLAY IMPORTANT ROLE IN N. J. MURDER QUIZ By THE CAMERAMAN PRESTON NEWS SERVICE "It Might Have Been" EXPERT economists argue that railroad facilities are an unerring indication of the depression or prosperity of a nation, a state, or a locality. As proof, they point to the South of before the war, which, in the first thirty years of railroad construction of the United States, boasted of building, up to the year 1860, 9,899 miles of railroad, as compared with 9,510 miles for New England and the Middle Atlantic States, combined. "Then," say the economists, "came the Civil War and the long period of business prostration suffered by the South during the reconstruction period." "Again," the economists point out, "people are beginning to realize the broad range of Southern business, and that the great expansion in manufacturing is calling for increased railroad arteries to (Continued on Page 4.) WOMAN HAS MAN HELD FOR POSING AS OFFICER Mrs. Cora Spaulding, Dressmaker, Says Henry Williams Attempted to Extort $75 From Her Posing as a police officer from Inspector Ryan's office, it is charged that Henry Williams, 21, waiter, 36 West 139th street, attempted to extort $75 from Mrs. Cora Spaulding, a dressmaker, 160 West 142nd street, last week. Arraigned in the Washington Heights Court for a hearing Monday Williams was held without bail by Magistrate Albert Vitale for Special Sessions. According to Mrs. Spaulding, Williams went to her apartment on the fourth floor of the building about 5:30 in the afternoon. He informed her, she testified, that he had been sent there by the Inspector's Office on a complaint that she was selling stolen goods. The alleged policeman then explained to her that he would forget about the complaint if she would give him $75. The complainant said that she then realized that the intruder was a grafter. Pestending to be looking for the money, Mrs. Spaulding went into an adjacent room and called Patrolman Marlmon Moore of the West 125th street station. Upon reaching the apartment, the policeman quizzed the defendant and then placed him under arrest. In court, Williams appeared as his own lawyer. After Assistant District Attorney Schwartz had examined the complainant, the prisoner cross-examined her.

On the night of the double murder she heard some one prowling around her house. With her shotgun she went out to make a search, riding her mule, Jenny. It was between nine-thirty and ten o'clock, she said. As she reached the Phillips' farm, which is about a mile and a half from her house, she saw a woman wearing a gray dress leave the crabapple tree and get into a Ford sedan, which was being driven by a man. Mrs. Gibson identified the woman in gray as being Mrs. Hall, and the man behind the wheel as "Crazy Willie" Stevens, her brother. Under the crabapple tree the bodies of the murdered lovers were found two days later by children. Mrs. Nellie Lo Russell, the colored woman in the case, swore before the Grand Jury that Mrs. Gibson was at her house between nine-thirty and ten o'clock on the night of the murders. Mrs. Russell declared that it would have been impossible for the "Pig Woman" to have seen Mrs. Hall. Mrs. Gibson's testimony was then thrown out.

Yet Its Occupant Is Known and Feared for Miles Around BY THELMA E. BERLACK VOORHEES, N. J., Aug. 2.—"This place seems to hold a soft spot in my heart." The place referred to, merely a shingled, unpainted hut, is the home of Mrs. Nellie Lo Russell, one of the star witnesses for the defense in the Hall-Mills case. And everybody in the thinly populated community knows where "the house" of Nellie Lo Russell stands. Diagonally north of the Voorhees Junction station, about four miles beyond New Brunswick, N. J., is this hut in the center of a field of corn, wild flowers and a few stunted peach trees. Were you to picture mentally a house belonging to a character said to be as vicious and popular as the "Lone Wolf," no doubt your picture would be wrong. "Fifteen by six" is what a carpenter would say of the shanty in terms of dimensions. And yet two full-sized people live in this shanty. As you approach the house on Churchill avenue, somewhat nervous because of the presence of State Troopers, who are guarding everything that looks like a house in this locality, you wonder how any human being could exist in so small a space and call it "home." Two front windows, a padlocked door, a rear window and a short, thin smoke hole (meant to be a chimney) are the means of ventilation. The slant of the roof on one side of the house gives a scal- The "Pig Woman" Astride "Jenny" A MRS. JANE GIBSON, whose testimony was refuted by Nellie Lo Russell four years ago. Watch for story on "Nellie, the Devoted Housewife," In next week's Amsterdam News. NELLIE LO RUSSELL, KNOWN TO NEIGHBORS AS 'BLACK TERROR,' GAVE LIE TO 'PIG WOMAN'S' TESTIMONY Shack in Which She Lives Closely Guarded by State Troopers — Admits Attack on Mrs. Gibson and Others Without Being Arrested By WARREN BROWN NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Aug. 2.—Again Nellie Lo Russell, known all over Middlesex and Somerset counties as the "Black Terror," is figuring in the famous Hall-Mills case. It was upon her testimony, four years ago, that Mrs. Frances Stevens Hall escaped from an indictment by the County Grand Jury for the murder of her husband, the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall, and his choir singer sweetheart, Mrs. Eleanor R. Mills, after she upset the story of Mrs. Jane Gibson, the "pig woman." The authorities are focusing all of their attention on Mrs. Russell as the strongest witness the defense has to offer. All around sections of the two counties there is a tense, repulsive, hostile atmosphere. State troopers are on guard along all the main highways and are registering every automobile that turns towards the little shanty of the "Black Terror" in Churchill avenue. Amsterdam News Investigators Quizzed Newspaper reporters seeking interviews with Mrs. Russell and persons in Voorhees, the first junction stop from New Brunswick, where she lives, were followed from early in the afternoon until late at night by the state police. An aggregation of investigators sent out by The Amsterdam News was questioned nearly an hour and arrest was first NELLIE LO RUSSELL IMPORTANT threatened on suspicion that they were being hired by Mrs. Hall to guard her star witness. That she could do anything to either white or black residents of the section without fear of any action whatever being taken against her, is the boast attributed to Mrs. Russell by her neighbors.

Trouble brewing for some time over Mrs. Russell's cows grazing in the "pig woman's" garden resulted in the attack. The next time the "low trash" passes her path, Mrs. Russell infronteed the police pointblank, she won't get off that light.

The "pig woman" lives a little less than a quarter of a mile from the Russells'. Up to the time of the double murder they visited each other frequently. When the "pig woman" went before the Grand Jury Mrs. Russell became her friendly enemy. Later, after the case was believed settled, their relations became more strained. Under the slightest pretense, it is claimed, Mrs. Russell would beat the "pig woman" unmercifully. Mrs. Mary Easton, sister of Mrs. Gibson, is keeping house for her sister while she is being held as a material witness for the state. The farm house is being closely guarded day and night by troopers. Reporters and photographers have been forbidden to enter upon the premises. Speaking for her sister, Mrs. Easton said that Mrs. Russell was a "Black Terror" and had brutally beaten her sister, who, she says, had often befriended her. In spite of Mrs. Gibson's warnings any number of times, Mrs. Russell allowed her cows and horses to graze in her sister's garden, she said. Threatened to Kill "Pig Woman" Fearing that one day the "Black Terror" would make good her threat that she would kill her, Mrs. Gibson gave up gardening, Mrs. Easton declared. "My sister wasn't terribly afraid of her, but she didn't like to hear those threats. You know, nobody likes for anyone to tell them she's gonna kill 'em. Nellie is no good. She's a bad actor. Ask any of the people across the way about her, and none of them will say a good word about her. "I have had trouble with her and everybody else around here has.

The sentinels at the Russell home are three dogs and two cats. Two of the dogs sit behind white spots that bark incessant but loot out in the open. The third one, a brown pedigree pup called Kaiser, is kept locked in the hut. He has nothing to do but look cute. The cats, a white spot told one and a solid black one, have fun roaming in the cornfield. Near the house is an old tin horn, much larger than the house in which the Russells live. The nearest neighbor is about a quarter of a mile north on Churchill avenue. A peep through the back window revealed a cot, a washing bureau, two partly burnt candles, a small cupboard a kettle and a few other trinkets. Under the front steps in the yard were several pairs of worn shoes. In the back yard is a low, green tree on which hangs two bags of clothespins. No clothesline was visible. The broken hand plough, leaning against the low wire fence, shows that its use is rare. Here in the open, almost away from everybody, live two apparently happy people, Mr. and Mrs. James Russell, Mrs. Russell, a wonderful woman of about forty, who does what she wants to do to white and colored alike and "gets away with it," and James Russell, her handsome husband, an ex-nowspaper man and student of Ohio State University.

Save Two Whites From Drowning Two Young Men Loitering on Bank Save Mother and Daughter Two youths became magnificent idlers, Monday afternoon, when they rescued a white woman and her daughter from drowning in Harlem River, near the Willis Avenue Bridge. Loafing on the shore of the river, Robert Dooley, 19, and his pal, Herbert Woodruff, 18, both of 229 East 127th street, heard screams of a woman. They then saw people running in the direction of the cries. When the youths joined the crowd, they observed a little girl sinking. A woman, they said, was making an attempt to reach her. Spurred by their emotion, Robert and Herbert jumped into the water. The woman had reached the child and was overpowered by the tide. The two of them began to go down for the last time when the boys grappled them. The youths then carried them to safety. First aid was applied to them when they reached the shore. Patrolman Conway of the East 126th street station, who saw the boys perform the heroic act, then took charge. The rescued were Mrs. Fannie Trotts, white, 31, 328 East 126th street, and her daughter, Carmela, 9. Virginia Starace, 13, white, 330 East 126th street, who was near Carmela, was drowned before the boys could reach her. The body was recovered several hours later. Woman Thrown Through Window Husband Held — Said to Have Been Out-Talked in Argument Because his wife out-talked him in an argument, Adolph Rock, 202 West 148th street, is said to have thrown her out of a window on the first floor of the apartment building where they reside, causing her to sustain serious injuries. To await the outcome of his wife's condition Rock was held without ball when he was arraigned before Magistrate Francis McQuade in the Washington Heights Court Thursday. She is in a critical condition in the Harlem Hospital with a possible fracture of the skull. The real cause of the dispute between the couple could not be learned. Policeman Damica of the West 135th street station, who arrested Rock, was unable to obtain accurate information from any persons in the building. Attacked Man Who Rammed His Auto Angered because a white man driving a machine collided with his auto as he was turning into Seventh avenue at West 146th street, Wednesday, Julius Lovack, 664 St. Nicholas avenue, struck the motorist, slightly injuring him, it is charged. The complainant gave his name as Jack Morris, 69 East 176th street, when he summoned a policeman who was on post near the scene. On a charge of disorderly conduct, Lovack was arranged in the Washington Heights Court, Thursday morning, before Magistrate McQuade. He pleaded guilty to the complaint and was fined $25. ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 4.—More than a thousand people were present Sunday at the cornerstone laying of the new Leonard Street Orphans' Home, this city, which is now nearing completion. The stone was laid with Masonic rites, Dr. H. R. Butler, Grand Master, as master of ceremonies. Two hundred and fifty Masons participated. 2. In July, 1924, Stell was arrested at his home, 301 West 150th street, where he was employed as an elevator operator. Because of his position he received all the mail that came to tenants in the building. Hearing O. A. Bundy, veteran of the World War, who lived in the building, say that he was expecting a bonus from the Government. It is claimed that the elevator operator opened the letter by the United States Treasury department a few days later. He went before a notary and signed the check, assuming Bundy's name. On not receiving the draft that was then long overdue, Bundy sent an inquiry to the Government. An investigation was then carried by the federal authorities. From the endorsement of the notary, Stell was traced to the West North street address. When he was arraigned in the Washington Heights Court, Stell was held in $1,500 bail by Magistrate Edward Well for a further hearing two days later. When the case was called for a hearing Stell did not appear. In spite of strenuous efforts on the part of the police here and in New Jersey, the prisoner could not be apprehended. Going under the name of Styles, the prisoner became a resident of Washington, D. C., where he was implicated in a number of holdings. He was arrested, convicted and sentenced to five years in the Federal Prison at Atlanta, Ga., a war 330. Determined to exhaust every means to recapture the prisoner, the authorities assigned the private detectives to the case. While still under the name "Styles," was serving his sentence in the Federal Prison, clues leading the inmates all over the country were taken down. Last week the prisoner was moved to Washington, and then his prison and conviction led them to Atlanta.

Abyssinia Protests to the League of Nations on Anglo-Italian Agreement Informs Secretariat She Will Not Accept Chamberlain —Mussolini Proposal to Divide Sphere of --- A copyright cable despat states that an Abyssinian pro against the Anglo-Italian ag into two spheres of influence riat. The despatch further st A copyright cable despatch to the New York Times states that an Abyssinian protest to the League of Nations against the Anglo-Italian agreement dividing the country into two spheres of influence was published by the Secretariat. The despatch further states: Addis Ababa informs the League that Abyssinia will not accept the Chambergrain-Mussolini agreement trading between themselves, water rights and economic and railroad concessions. The note asks the opinion of members on the efforts of two of their number to impose their will on a third League power. Secretary General Drummond has replied, asking whether Abyssinia wishes him to bring the issue before the Council. It is expected that the Abyssinians will answer in the affirmative and that in September descendants of the Queens of Sheba will sit at the League Council table. "It is expected that Britain and Italy will say that their intentions are friendly and that they are acting within the provisions of an agreement concluded in 1906. But this agreement has been held to impugn the sovereignty of Abyssinia and Abyssinia contends that she attained sovereign equality with the members when she was admitted to the League. "Observers here point out that one outcome of the situation might be that the League might establish Abyssinian sovereignty and thus wipe out the 1906 treaty, which would leave London free to Buy at Butler's and JAMES BUTLER GROCERY THE STAMP OF QUALITY Quality the Highest Prices the Lowest Pure rich whole fresh milk reduced to the thickness, of cream.

"The note then says that, when Abyssima joined the League, she was told that all nations were on a footing of equality and that she does not understand how two other members can treat Abyssima in such a way. The note adds: "The people of Abyssinia are anxious to do right and we have every intention of guiding them on the path of improvement and progress, but throughout their history they have seldom met with foreigners who did not desire to possess themselves of Abyssinian territory and destroy our independence.

STOLE FRIEND'S SUIT: HELD WITHOUT BAIL For stealing a suit belonging to his friend, Edward Glover, 22, 2447 Seventh avenue, was held without bail, Monday, when he was brought before Magistrate Albert Vitale in the Heights Court. According to the complainant, Robert Fountain, 27, also of the Seventh avenue address, the prisoner told him that he had taken the suit and pawned it for $5. The suit was recovered at a loan shop, the police said. PRISON Magistrate Vitale Frees Suspect Convinced That He Was Not Accomplice of Pickpocket "We have genuine hospitality here like you have in the South. You don't read about it because we perform ours." Magistrate Albert Vitale, sitting in the Washington Heights Court, Monday, made this declaration as he informed a police officer to allow him to assist in getting Paul Kenny, 781 Sixth avenue, a desirable job. Kenny was arrested with William Simpson, 108 West 135th street, on a charge of attempting to pick a white man's pocket while he was asleep on a bench in the West 103rd street subway station early Monday morning.

The officer moved by the justice of the court informed Magistrate Vitale that he would help Kenny get a good rollable job. The magistrate then added: "Call on me if I can be of any service to you." Simpson was not let off so lightly. He was sentenced to five months and twenty-nine days in the Workhouse. He was seen by the officer with his hand near a white man's pocket while he was asleep. The prisoner in order to shield himself whistled for Kenny to come near him and pretended as though the young man was acting in concert with him. Although Kenny was in the station at the time, he knew nothing of Simpson and said that he had never seen him before. JOHN WILLIAMS HELD.

A. Holding Annual Convention (Continued from Page 1.) street. Sunday. in answer to a call by Supreme Deputy Potentate G. O. Marke, of Sierra Leone, West Coast Africa. Approximately two hundred delegates had registered by the second day of the convention. There are representatives present from Cape Town, South Africa; Sudan, Egypt; Cuba and Porto Rico to take part in the two weeks' conference. Stormy discussion ushered in the first business session Monday. By a vote of 27 to 2, the Supreme Deputy Potentate was instructed to take legal steps immediately against any groups that went under the name of U. N. L. A. That a convention held by officers of the association last March in Detroit was illegal was protested by the body. A great deal of debate was caused over the authority vested in higher officials of the organization. George A. Weston, elected chairman of the convention, interpreted the constitutional rights of each officer. He held that the Potentate and Supreme Deputy Potentate are the highest officers of authority and are elected for life. Sunday morning was devoted to devotional services conducted by Supreme Deputy Potentate Marke. In contrast to the big parades of Garvey, a few members in uniform and others in civilian clothes marched down principal avenues in the afternoon. The entire line passed any one spot in less than then minutes. Mr. Marke is a graduate of London University and also attended universities in Scotland, where he specialized in higher sciences. Wesley McB. Holder, secretary of the U. N. L. A., declared that his group was not anti-Garvey. He said: "We still respect Garvey as the man who gave the idea for the African program; but we admit at the same time as a business man he is a failure. We feel that the association needs most at this time an economic program which we are not willing to submit to Marcus Garvey." "As a propagandist we recognize him and rank him in the class of Toussant L'Overture. As an organizer he was important; but he lacked system and was unable to weave events and thoughts into some organic reality. "He lacked a cosmic perspective. Because of this, he lent himself too readily to sentiment of intolerance and injustice." The aim and purpose of this convention is not to dethrone Marcus Garvey, although it is expected that some action will be taken to carefully limit his powers. Effects to perfect complete harmony with opposing groups will not be undertaken. Primarily, the assembly will strive to outline a sound industrial and education program. "Build from ground up, and not from the air down," is the motto that has been adopted. Colorful News facilitate production, consumption, and wealth." This new prosperity of Dixieland can be made to be a true one instead of the false one upon which its prosperity of before-the-war days was built. The prosperity of the pre-Civil War period rested squarely but unfairly upon the brawny backs of slaves, whose free labor made the South's prosperity of easily shaped dimensions. It was impossible that such a pros- pority could endure, and it is said that the digege of "It Might Have Been" is being re-ochued today in a section which was once the most prosperous stretch of the national wealth. The new prosperity urge of the Southland betokens that the South may have headed the causes of the fall of its industrial and agricultural "Babylon" of the pre-sixteens, destroyed by self-aggrandizement and persecution. The future sera will be even more important than the past, because world competition is more keen than ever before. If present and future prosperity would be all that the South would have it be, many changes in the Southland's heart must yet be made. Human hearts must be measured by the scale of Godliness rather than selfish man. Pride of God, of country and of man must be invoked. Christianity must entirely displace bigotry and good-fellowship must succeed foolousy and suppression. Millions of black citizens must indeed be treated as fellow-men; and, at least, civic equality must obtain grouply and social equality individually. And the railroad lines of the next half-century will treble those of today, for the world is moving nearer to God—so must the South. Whipping Boss Freed of Charge Jury Returns Verdicts After Deliberating Only Forty Minutes (Preston News Service) ALBEMARLE, N. C., Aug. 2.—N. C. Cranford, white, former chain-gang boss at the state prison here, charged with the murder of two convicts, James Howell and James Taylor, was found not guilty here last Thursday night by a jury that deliberated only forty minutes. The trial lasted more than two weeks, during which time scores of state's witnesses testified that they had seen Cranford brutally beat convicts. Several society women of the section testified as to seeing Cranford club convicts over the head. One witness testified that she saw him strike a convict on the head with a club, and never saw that convict working with the chain gang after that. The prosecution experienced all sorts of difficulty in establishing the fact positively that witnesses had seen Cranford kill Howell and Taylor.

Ideal for the shampoo. en especially for this paper RAMSAY RAY Feature Writer (I.R.N.S.) events of the day and planning for the morrow. Madame High-tower's mind seemed to have an inexhaustible capacity for work, for when she was not actually compounding new mixtures in her chemical laboratory she was thinking of other products to create . . . new beauty blessings to bestow. She Decides to Make a New Kind of Soap One morning as Madame Hightower crossed the threshold of her shop she announced to her staff of assistants with customary brevity "Today we start work upon the perfection of a soap that will be superior to any soap now being made." All who heard these words realized that Madame Hightower would know no rest until her ideal had been attained. Immediately the entire facilities of her well-equipped laboratory were devoted to the making of this new soap and after many weeks patient effort and research were rewarded. Used and Praised the World Over Today this product is known the world over as Madame Mamie High-tower's Golden Brown Beauty Soap and many thousands of cakes of it are sold annually by drug stores and agents everywhere. But what a farcry it is from today's international usage to yesterday's limited patronage in the shop on Beale St. I Success greeted the soap. Patrons of the shop marvelled at the sweetly-scented, skin-soothing soap that was always used there. Many sought to take home packages of it. Soon there was a great demand for it and for this reason it was put up for home use. This sale increased steadily and soon came orders from 'out-of-town. Some from as far as two and three hundred miles. Of course, in those days this was quite a compliment to Madame Hightower's prowess as a She is a "Committee of one," "The Fairy Godmother of Her Group" is the way that one of her ardent admirers described this internationally known beauty cultist. Like some guardian angel she hovers about the homes of those less fortunate, bringing happiness and good cheer. For always is this good woman ready to share her cup of joy and prosperity with those whose throats are parched with adversity. Eagerly does she lose her purse strings to give to worthy cause. It is an old saying that "Charity begins at home" but as Madame Hightower puts it "Charity may begin at home . . . but it shouldn't end there" . . . and with her, Charity has no ending . . . her dispensions of goodness and bestowals of happiness are exceedingly generous and far-reaching . . . ever doing GOOD where, when and how she can. chemist but when one today considers that orders come from thousands of miles and many nations it is easy to visualize the remarkable strides and elaborate expansion that Madame Hightower has made in the distribution of her magnificent benefits. knowing the happiness that my feeble efforts have brought to Our Group.

Her Work Was Her Hobby; Our Group Her Inspiration Madame Hightower's work was her hobby. In fact, to use the words of the famous beauty culturist "No one knows the sense of gratification that I feel in what greater accomplishment can there be in life than to do good for all." Note the spirit of sincerity that rings through every word. Can't you picture this kindly soul patiently striving with her faithful co-workers to create even now, while you read, a new beauty preparation for Our Group? Is it any wonder then that such a personage with such an unselfish code of living should be vested with such rare ability? To Know Her Is to Love Her Madame Hightower is loved most by those who know her best. Her closest associates deem it a privilege and a pleasure to be engaged in such a meritorious undertaking. I could talk and talk and talk and then leave the story of this remarkable woman half untold. For truly she is an inspiration to Our Group. Truly is she a distinct personality whose attributes should be heralded to the world because they help to make the world better. Already it seemed as if the beauty shop on Beale St. was beginning to prove inadequate for the growing needs of the rapidly developing business. More space was added but in a relatively short time quarters proved unequal to house the rapidly enlarging volume that was eventually merge into one of the greatest businesses of its kind in the world. Madame Hightower with her characteristic business acumen foresaw the hand-writing on the wall. She saw, the phenomenal strides that the business was making. She saw that the demand for her products was stretching from Canada to the Gulf Coast, from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Her Group wanted her services. Why should they be restricted? Madame Hightower Plans the Future of Golden Brown Why should she not expand her operations and make her creations available to every brother and sister no matter where they lived? These matters were going through the head of Madame Hightower. Again she sought the wise counsel of her faithful husband, Zack; and he, ever equal to the occasion, foresaw an answer to the problem. How Mamie and Zack planned to do big things for Our Group... how they visioned a tremendous organization dispensing Madame Hightower's beauty blessings to everyone making interesting reading indeed. In another installment I will tell you how the corner stone of one of Our Group's greatest and most glorious achievements was laid. Golden Brown Beauty Preparations are highest quality The success of Madame Mamie Hightower's preparations is due entirely to their high quality, for very little money has been spent for advertising as compared to the huge amounts spent by imitators. First there was only Golden Brown Beauty Ointment at 25 cents. Gradually new things were developed, tried and proven and then offered Madame Hightower's friends, Golden Brown Hair Dressing, 50 cents; the Face Powder, 50 cents; Beauty Soap, 25 cents; Cold Cream, 50 cents; Vanishing Cream, 50 cents; Compact, 50 cents; Rouge, 50 cents; Lip Stick, 25 cents; Talcum, 50 cents, and the wonderful Flowers of Liberia Perfume, $2.50.

Is it a drud must do something to keep en of your program, a part you ton for (and incidentally, or your bread and board)? An appreciation for your woman in the field needs in it. As is the case in most it is more out than one puts in WHAT does your position mean to you? Is it a pastime to keep you from sitting at home and being bored? Is it a drudgery, performed because you must do something to keep ends meeting? Or, is it a part of your program, a part you enjoy and have an appreciation for (and incidentally, or perhaps on purpose, it earns your bread and board)? An appreciation for your work is something that every woman in the field needs in order to get the most out of it. As is the case in most lines of endeavor, one gets little more out than one puts into a thing. This applies with equal emphasis to women in all lines of business. In fact, it applies even more widely than that. Clock watchers, readers, and office ornaments are a few of the things that a self-repeating woman, avoids even the ambiance of.

The criticism has often been made that our women are not trusted. A few of the things mentioned above were pointed out about them. The reasons for the situation are many. The atmosphere in which they started was not conducive toward anything other than the above state of affairs. Some, lacking the atmosphere, saw no reason to cultivate it or were too unlearned to know how to start. Many offices bring down, rather than raise the efficiency average of their help, and play an important part in keeping the standard low. Many of those who employed were landlocked educationally and believed that everything came and thrived on the "mother wit." Very small is the contribution a person of this type can offer. The only contribution here is common sense, which is not transferable. So it is that many women, especially Negro women, have been discouraged from the outset. But given certain conditions, the average Negro woman in this field owes it to herself and to the business which employs her to keep abreast of the times and the methods of the day. In ever-increasing numbers, businesses are coming up and growing in the community—businesses which will and are giving much needed encouragement to the woman who expects a future in the business world.

Rub this gently on the spot till it disappears. Knitted silk underwear should be pulled and stretched by hand, not ironed.

Sara Washington Bathing Aids Beauty Now that we are in the midst of the torrid months, we may as well seek comfort and relief at the beach. And it is pertinent to mention the amazingly good effects to be obtained. Sea water, because of the salts it contains, has a most stimulating effect on the hair and scalp, just as it has on the rest of the skin. But, if salt water dries on the hair it is sure to leave a sticky feeling. The hair becomes very dry and generally unruly. However, to get the stimulating and beneficial effects of the salt water and at the same time protect it from unruliness, it is suggested that a good hair oil should first be well applied to the hair before entering the water. Then, after exposure to the water, the scalp should be rinsed in fresh water before the sea water dries. After which the hair oil should be again well rubbed into the hair and scalp. This prevents dryness and tends to soften the hair and make it easy to manage. If women would omit bathing caps when they bathe in the sea, especially those with bobbed hair, the effect would be doubly beneficial, provided the oil suggestion and fresh water rinsing were followed. Drying the hair in the sun is another good practice, for the actinic rays, however weak, have a tonic and stimulating effect. When exposure to the sun is overdone, however, the hair has a tendency to bleach. So to counteract this a thin parasol of red, brown or blue may be used as a shield since the rays which penetrate material) of this color are not those which harm the hair. Go sea bathing, frequently and watch the remarkable improvement of your skin. After exposure, massage the face, arms, neck and body with a good cold cream. Salt water bathing is one of the most beneficial aids to beauty known to science. Pittsburgh League Expands Its Work PITTSBURGH, Pa. Aug. 2—Miss Grace S. Lowndes, of the staff of the Urban League of Pittsburgh, who for the past eight years has acted as social worker among Negroes at Morals Court, has been transferred by the League from her work at court to a larger field, that of general work among delinquent Negroes in the city. The Urban League, organized for social work among colored people, maintained Miss Lowndes at the Morals Court for the purpose of demonstration and experimentation. Miss Lowndes this month, in co-operation with the Morals Court, has begun a study of causes contributing to Negro delinquency, court procedure and treatment, and results obtained. It is hoped that her work will ultimately be adopted in co-operation not only with Morals Court, but with other courts in the city dealing with Negro problems. On the basis of the study Miss Lowndes is now making, the Urban League proposes to build up a city-wide program for constructive efforts to decrease crime among Negroes and to facilitate court procedure. The Urban League is now under new management and has taken on new life with increased activities. The work done in the past has demonstrated the need of such an institution. THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT THE fashionable thing to do is to take a trip to Europe. If you use your wits you can spend a month in Europe for $300. Think of it! You can cross the ocean twice and get a glimpse of another civilization and another people cheaply and quickly. No longer is the trip across the ocean a trip of many weeks. No longer do we think of our eastern neighbors in terms of distance. Last summer a number of people of our group went abroad. Then, to go abroad was a novelty. This summer a still larger group crossed the ocean. Now, to go abroad is almost a necessity. In time we may think of the trip to Europe in quite the same light as the trip to Canada, Florida or California. A number of students are signing up to take the trip to Europe in 1928.

Never salt fresh meat when frying it. Salt tends to extract the juice and, at the same time, hardens the meat. Leftover sandwiches, sweet or savory, can be used up as fritters by being dipped in batter and fried in deep fat.

NEW YORK Former Californian Conducts Successful Business in Upper Brooklyn LIGHT Caters to All Races Without the Least Friction "The time has passed when business men of our group can close their business, hang up a sign reading 'will be back in five minutes' and keep their trade," said Mr. Theodore Freeman, proprietor of an up-to-date stationery and needle store at Schenectady and nearby towns, during the course of a talk with an Amsterdam News reporter this week. Mr. Freeman, who has built up a thriving business on this spot after several others had failed, was discussing his success in so doing. The interview took place amid busy scenes, for while we made an appointment at an hour that was considered one when might be a bull in business, he and his clerks were consulted, engaged in serving the needs of his patron, who range in years from the little tots to all of races. Mr. Freeman, who is a young man, being only 29 years old, is a native of Los Angeles, Cal. Who but a lad he went to the Panama Canal Zone with his parents, his father being employed there. He studied at Prof. Barton's Academy. While in school he took an active part in athletics, and won several medals as a 70 yard sprinter. In 1922, after much hard work and sacrifices, Mr. Freeman decided to enter the business world. He did not do so however, until he had familiarized himself with the business in which he wanted to enter. According to Mr. Freeman he had noticed that there were many people of our group in this particular vicinity, and there was no up-to-date stationery and novelty store to supply the community's needs, so he decided to take this store, despite the fact that others of our group had attempted it before. At first business was not so good, but he decided to stick, giving the best quality of goods at the same price and sometimes lower than his competitors of the opposite race. In the course of time his faith in the district was justified, and now he does a fine business with people of all races. Mr. Freeman stressed the point that while this line of business entailed long hours, it had its compensation in the fact that he was rendering a service, and was making a fair profit on the money invested. He also stressed the point that character counted in business, for if he had not set a high standard for himself and the company of his business he believes that he like his predecessors, would have failed. Mr. Freeman, notwithstanding the confining nature of his business, has found time to be interested in community and other interests. He is a Mason, Odd Fellow and Forester.

Loyola imprints, a yellowed piece of paper purporting to give location of buried treasure of the schooner Amistad somewhere in Montauk. It is well established that the slave schooner was at Port Bond Bay, Montauk, August 18. Here is the story of the schooner. On the 28th of June, 1529, there sailed from the port of Havana the Spanish schooner Amistad, Capt. Ramon Ferrer, of about 45 tons burden, bound to the ports of Guanaja, 110 leagues distant from Havana, consisted of two sailors whose names were Jacuto Verdaque and Manuel Padilla, the first a native of Catalonia, and the second of San Domingo; the cook, named Celestino; a mattore, the slaves of the coast of age, of age, who was also a slave of the captain.

Anchor was dropped in Fort Ponch Cinquez, the slave leader, wen ashore. While there he met two men from Sag Harbor, then gum the ship a large sum of gold to sail the Amistad to Africa. The men were Peteleian Fordham, a hotel keeper and Henry Green, a master while man. Captured by U. S. Brig. While engaged in talk with Fordham and Green, a U. S. brig from New London bore down on the schooner. Cinquez embarked not late to defend the vessel. The schooner and all on board were captured and carried to New London. The public prints of New London circulated stories of large sums of gold, left with residents of Long island, through traffic with the Africans. A box of 600 doubloons, a box of 600 clips, a schooler when she sailed from Havana, was unaccounted for, and unreported when the schooler arrived at New London. Green, in court proceedings later held, asked Cinque about this box and obtained answers as to its length, width and height of the gold. He built a box of gold. No further trace of the treasure could be obtained from the reticent witness. So far as known the Amistad doubloons disappeared after the landing of Cinque at Montauk. It is this gold that Dering, of Kew Gardens, wrote. The paper writer, 30 years ago, describing where the gold is buried, was found in an old sea chest among possessions of the late Henry P. Dering, who at the time of the Amistad case was collector of the district where the schooler was from the blacks. Dering and Panny were among the locating and recovering the gold. The Amistad case gained prominence in the Federal courts. The trial of the Negroes was held in New Haven, United States, where sels were stationed in the city and the entire west. The decision of the court denied salvage to all claimants, and directed the delivery of the African slaves to the President of the United States. The decision was made by John A. Johnson, who argued for the Africans before the Supreme Court of the United States, that they, on the high seas, uncontrolled by any law but that of Nature and National a right to fight their way to liberty, and that even the Court had no right to control them. He asserted that the slaves must be set at liberty. The court found in accordance with his argument. MARRIAGE LICENSES. Lord, Amistad, 25, 1850 Dean street. Reeds, 18, 1850 Dean street.

It was brought out here a few days ago that speed law violations mitigate the automobile, when William Apel, 77 years old, applied for citizenship papers. When asked by Justice Bailey of the District Supreme Court if he had ever been arrested, Apel searched his memory and recalled that forty years ago he had been required to pay a fine of $5 in Police Court for "speeding." Inquiry developed that the applicant then drove a horse hitched to a bread wagon "too fast." Apel was born in Germany in 1849 and came to America in 1872. In response to an inquiry of the court why he had waited so long to seek naturalization, the applicant explained that, since Washington is "voteless," he had not thought it necessary to apply for citizenship. He received his papers. John Preston Davis, a former Dunbar High School student and who is also an honor graduate of Bates College at Lewiston, Me., and was awarded a fellowship at Harvard University, was called the past week as literary editor of the Crisis Magazine, since the absence of W.

Cecilia Miller, a young white woman of Philadelphia, Pa., who was arrested some days ago at Seventh and Florida avenues on a liquor charge when her automobile was confiscated, was cleared of the charge Friday last when the case came up before Chief Justice Hits and her automobile was restored to her. Miss Miller was arrested here when she arrived from Philadelphia with ten gallons of alcohol and five pints of wine whisky in her car. The woman had been on liberty under $500 bond and immediately after her acquittal left for home. Edward T. Hill of West Virginia, Commissioner of Negro Welfare for the State of West Virginia, with Julius Love, an attorney of the same place, was in the city the past week on business and stopped over at the Whitelaw Hotel. 'PLEASE PUT OUT LIGHT,' ROOSEVELT'S LAST WORDS, SAYS AMOS Former Valet to Late President Tells of His Former Employer in Series of Articles in Collier's Now Federal Agent Theodore Roosevelt's last words, as recorded by his valet, were: "James, will you please put out the light?" This is revealed for the first time in the eye-witness story of Mr. Roosevelt's death, published in the current issue of Collier's Weekly and written by James Amos, valet for seven years to the former President and the only person present at the actual end of his life. Amos says that after Quentin Roosevelt's death fighting in France in 1918 he noticed its disastrous effect on Mr. Roosevelt, who had called him from Washington for special personal service during an illness. "Dolceol," he writes, "was a changed man. No opposition, no disaster ever lowered his spirits, but death of Quentin was too much even for Quentin was too much." Amos recounts that he saw a progressive physical decline in Mr. Roosevelt, and proceeds: "It was a Winter Sunday, and he certainly would not ordinarily have done any work. I think he did dictate a letter or two to Mrs. Roosevelt, but nothing more. He was in too much pain to do very much. And when I entered his room at 8 o'clock I could see plainly enough the look of great weariness in his face. He did not talk much, and a little later said: "James, don't you think I might go bed now." "That was his way of asking for a thirst. I removed his robe and had almost to lift him into bed. Mrs. Roosevelt was in and out, and about 11 o'clock kissed him good night and retired. The nurse had gone to bed. "Just after Mrs. Roosevelt left the room Mr. Roosevelt said, 'James, will you please put out the light!' "The house was lit entirely in those days by old-fashioned lamps. There was a very small one on the dresser, which filled the large room with a dim yellow light. I put it out and sat in a chair where I could see the bed. "The large house was still. Soon my eyes became accustomed to the dark and I could see the great man lying there on the bed very still, and I could tell by his breathing that he was asleep. "About 3 in the morning I was started by his irregular breathing. Very quickly it became so uncertain that I got up and went to his desk and softly placed my hand on his head. He was sleeping, apparently, save for the weakest breath, as peacefully as when he first drank. His breath seemed to stop. Then it resumed again and paused again. "Again closer. I was ancher pause. I waited and waited, no but breath. I ran for the nurse. When she came I asked her to call Mr. Roscevitt. It was now 4:15." "In a few moments Mrs. Roosevelt came in. She was calm and went to her husband's side. She leaned over him and called, "Theodore, darling! But there was no answer. I realized then that Mr. Roosevelt had died while I stood alone over his bed. His laws were closed tight. His eyes, too, were closed. His face was perfectly at peace." DOWNINGTOWN ADDS THREE TO FACULTY DOWNINGTOWN, Pa., Aug. 2.

THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1926 Manhattan Lodge of Elks Tenders Testimonial Dinner to Sgt. Battle To honor one of their fraternal brothers, Detective Sergeant Samuel J. Battle, for his recent promotion, the Manhattan Lodge No. 45 of I. B. P. O. E. of W. gave a testimonial dinner to him last week at the St. Luke's Hall, 125 West 19th street. Nearly one hundred prominent persons were in attendance. Commissioner of Police George McLaughlin, who was one of the invited guests, was unable to attend. Captain Maloney, under whom Sergeant Battle served as patrolman, was present to pay his respects to Mr. Battle, but could not remain for the dinner. At a few minutes to eleven o'clock, Sergeant Battle, accompanied by Mrs. Battle, renched the building in a taxicab. A committee, headed by George S. Johnson, escorted them to the main auditorium where they were presented to the guests. Exalted Ruler Toastmaster. To the sweet strains of music by the Harold C. Clark Melody Orchestra the guests were led into the beautiful dining room. Acting as toastmaster, J. Dalmus Steele, exalted ruler of the Manhattan Lodge, interpreted the significance of the name Battle. He said it was a symbol of benvolence, activity, truth, tenacity, love and elasticity. The speakers were Sandy P. Jones, long a member of the organization; Miss Bessie Walker, Dr. William Veal, Mrs. Julia Runford Clark, one of the three Negro women who are teaching Latin in the public schools here; the Rev. R. M. Bolden, pastor of the First Emmanuel Church; Dennis Edwards, Charles S. Joel, Oscar Cassell, Joseph G. McKinley, H. W. McCoy, Oliver Jackson and A. W. Barker, inspector of the Colonial Banks. Battle Express Appreciation. In response to the many tributes, Serguei Battle responded in a voice filled with emotion. He expressed deep appreciation for the testimonial dinner. In telling of his many rebuffs, Mr. Battle explained how he had been discouraged by persons, supposedly his friends, who advised him not to get on the police force. After passing the examination, these friends told him that he would never wear the police uniform. Mrs. Battle, he said, is largely responsible for his success on the force. Proud of Being an Elk. Serguei Battle said that he is proud of being an Elk. It is an organization of men who are doing something for the uplift of mankind, he declared. Mrs. Battle was asked to speak, but declined. With a charming smile she informed the toastmaster that one "Battle" a night was enough. She wore a beautiful peach and orange crepe dress. Minister Paya Tribute. The Rev. M. Bolden, who is well acquainted with the Battle family of his introduction to the honored guest over 19 years ago, while he was a red cap in the Pennsylvania station. Because Battle's father and a younger brother were ministers the Rev. Bolden said, he urged Battle to quit his job and study for the ministry. Failing to persuade him to become a clergyman, he encouraged him to aspire for something else. Digressing from the tribute to his honored friend, the minister proclaimed Elkdom as being the greatest fraternal organization in the world and that there would be a reunion of the black and white body within the near future. He extolled Finley Wilson as a great leader of the order, but his remark seemed to have shocked and chilled his listeners. Those present were Rev. R. M. Bolden, Arthur Barker, Thomas Brown, Mrs. Bundy, Mr. and Mrs. O. R. Cassell, Thomas Cook, Mr. and Mrs. George Clark, William Carter, Miss Corinne Dean, Mr. and Mrs. Deval, Mr. and Mrs. Edwards, Joseph Gary, Mr. and Mrs. Dudley L. Hunt, Mary T. Harris, James H.

An unsuccessful effort was made to adjust differences. The musicians with the Ethel Waters Company refused to play without its musicians. The Howard Theatre claimed that the Ethel Waters Company was trying to force it to change its policy. "As a result of these differences the Howard Theatre was forced to close last Thursday and remain shut for the balance of the week. The Ethel Waters Company moved its scenery away from the theatre on that day. The suit for $2,000 damages followed. "The Howard Theatre is represented by Attorneys James A. O'Shea and John H.

Sickman and Saunders sent us a following Washington, D.C. July 31, 1926. Mr. Romeo L. Dougherty. Dramatic Editor N. Y. Amsterdam News. New York City, N. Y. Dear SIR. In news articles regarding the Howard Theatre of Saturday, July 31, let us advise you the true situation as it was: The Howard Theatre, since the time of Jimmie Cooper, has been conducted as an open house, and has never had a contract with the union. We have been placed on the unfair list for no reason at all. We have never had the union officials call at the Howard Theatre to discuss employing them until Thursday, July 22, the day earl Dancer, manager of the Ethel Waters Co., took the attitude he did. When a delegate of the union called to have us sign up, they could not tell us what the scale was. This question was asked of Mr. Heyden (white), of the white local. But still they were persistent for us to sign a contract or they would close the show. We asked Mr. Dancer for the music score of the show and he automatically refused to give us an admiration to give us music, and also claimed that our orchestra could not play his show, owing to the fact that his production was composed of tricky music and the only musicians that could possibly play his show were the four pieces he carried. However, after reviewing the show on Monday, we are truthful to say that the show, in our humble opinion, was not tricky, but was as all other shows; good entertainment with simple music. Had Mr. Dancer given us the music the Howard Theatre would not be closed the four days as it was. What we are wondering is, if the show was paid the guarantee of $2,500 that they had with us through some outside source, it is hard to understand why they should lose an amount like this when there was no reason for it. However, this should be a mighty good lesson to all theatre managers to take a warning from and protect their investments from actions of this kind. Our house is open this week with Drake and Walker as the attraction, the man in pearls, the man might say withdrawn from the show on Wednesday. However, Mr. Henry Drake took a very different attitude and the show is going over just the same, playing to capacity business with our house orchestra in the pit and playing the show as though nothing had happened. Surely if our orchestra can play Henry Drake's "Go Get 'Em" show they can play anything down the line. We also want to make it clear in the minds of all concerned that the management of the Howard Theatre is not opposed to union labor, but under the present economic conditions of the working NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1926 Leondas Simmons A.

This is a proven fact, for the Howard Theatre could not stand up under previous managements under the strain of expense and was forced to close its doors definitely. Would appreciate your publishing this article so that the whole show world might know why we were forced to close last week. A. E. SICHTMAN, Proprietor. E. B. SAUNDERS, manager. "Zigaboo Land" Off to big Start at the Lincoln Howard, Brown and Smith at Head of Musical Comedy at Popular 135th St. House This Week. We doubt seriously that Howard, Brown and Smith are particularly concerned with just what their reception will be in the weeks to follow their appearance Ed. Daly to Present Another Show Next Week "Fixing to Leave" Title of Vehicle Coming to the Lafayette Theatre to Entertain Ed. Daly, who brought "Shake, Rattle and Roll" to the Lafayette Theatre some weeks back, will again come to Harlem to entertain the throng that seem to find so much enjoyment with the revues at the big Seventh avenue house. Next week Mr. Daly will present what he calls "Fixing to Leave" and, from the broad smile he wears when speaking of his new revue, we surmise that it will come to use hot off the bat. As we have oftimes tried to point out in these columns, we can only go by the past reputation of people and their doings and it is on those grounds we are going to state that the populace will expect much of the new offering. If it falls below par, they will certainly "Fix to Leave." "Zigaboo Land" Off to big Start at the Lincoln Howard, Brown and Smith at Head of Musical Comedy at Popular 135th St. House This Week. We doubt seriously that Howard, Brown and Smith are particularly concerned with just what their reception will be in the weeks to follow their appearance at the Lincoln Theatre, for they opened with enough encouragement on Monday afternoon at the 135th street house to make them feel satisfied that Lincoln audiences are enthusiastic about what they are doing this week. The popular trio of funmakers heading the company, which receives wonderful support from every other angle of the show, were at their best, and if the signs are pointing right we expect to see them put in three or four of their best weeks right here in Harlem. "Zigaboo Land" takes auditors through an amazing series of misfortunes which baffle "Speedy," young humans which are fraught with mouth hunger to keep the house in a constant uprоar. To add to the enjoyment of the entertainment, snappy music, good dancing with a vivacious chorus had much to do with the success of the big opening. ROYAL THEATRE Formerly The Douglass Penna. Ave., near Lafayette Ave. BALTIMORE, MD. All Acts, Tabs and Company Keep Us Posted on Open Time FRANK TANNEY, Manager Renaissance Cas sino to Reopen as Beautiful Dance Palace Painters and Interior Decorators to Transform Popular Resort Into Veritable Fairyland Harlem's dance lovers and basketball fans, who have for the past three years made Renaissance Casino the mecca for social functions, and the great indoor sport of basketball, will be greatly surprised when they shall see and know the result of the work of the staff of Broadway painters and interior decorators that are now transforming this well-known amusement center into what the management consider will be "America's most beautiful dance palace." Startling changes will be made throughout the interior. The management will institute a permanent service of two bands, so that every one can dance until they are tired – rather than just a dance when the band plays. The dance fan will be able to dance all night, because these bands will play continuously. We further learnt that there will be several hostesses on hand to dance with any stranger without charge to the patron. This service is optional with the club or society when they shall have the hall. In no event will the patron, or the club, or the society be charged for the service which the hostesses will render, the management taking care of this item themselves. Apart from being one of the most beautiful dance palaces in America, Renaissance Casino will afford the most pleasing atmosphere for clubs' and societies' social events, give the advantage of financial assistance for organizations that must raise funds for charitable and civic work through the medium of public entertainments. All Harlem is keenly awaiting the grand reopening of the well-known Renaissance on Friday, August 27. When Renaissance Casino was built and opened in 1923, it was undoubtedly the best and most beautiful place that was catering to the colored public in the way of dances. It brought about very startling changes in all the places that was then catering to our people, and in like manner now, when Renaissance was opened Friday, August 27, those behind the management claim that Renaissance will surpass all other places of its kind, in beauty and general artistic settings. Miss Spencer Will Also Take a Leading Part in "Fixing to Leave" at the Lafayette Theatre Next Week. In "Zigaboo Land" THE DANCE TEAM It Is the Opinion of Many Patrons at the New Lincoln Theatre That "Zigaboo Land" Is Worth Visiting After Seeing the Above at the House on 135th Street Irene Rich Starring in "Silken Shackles" at the Lincoln Big Feature Shares Spot With "Zigaboo Land" at Mrs. Downs' Theatre This Week The magic of Budapest nights, the thrill of awakening ardor in every man she passed, went to Denise's head like wine, and her trip on the Continent was delight for her and torture for her husband. Such is the situation in "Silken Shackles," the Warner picture, shackling Irene Rich, which will be at the Lincoln Theatre, a story of a flirtatious wife, a devoted husband, and a gypsy violinist. Irene Rich, smartly gowned, becoming bobbed of hair, and coquettish of glance, gives a brilliant performance in the role of Denise Lake. Huntly Gordon, the important man of affairs, finds the romantic wandering of the fascinating Miss Rich a handicap in M. & S. DOUGLAS THEATRE LENOX AVE. COR. 142nd ST. Sat., Sun., Mon. and Tues.

Victor Varcolon is the Hungarian violinist, who plays the music of love on muted strings to the impressionable audience of Denise, and Robert Schable, the diplomat and friend of the husband, who finds Denise alluring but rather troublesome. Bert Marbugh is another suitor and Evelyn Selbie and Kalla Pasha the peasant parents of the suave musician. "Silken Shackles," directed by Oliver Morosco, was written especially for Miss Rich by Morosco and Philip Klein, and the entire production has an air of gayety and glamour that makes it one of the most entertaining of recent photoplays.

Manager Charity Offers "The Devil's Circus And Other Big Features at the Ever Popular Renaissance Theatre This Week Thursday and Friday, August and 6, the feature picture at the Renaissance Theatre will be "The Devil's Circus" with Norma Shear or Charles Emmett Mack and Carmel Myers. The spectacle of a circus is a always alluring, but the behind seen spectacle is one not only dazzling but full of mystery. In "The Devil's Circus" one goes well behind the scene. The picture is a realtif one and highly enjoyable. "Ellin Cinders," with Colleen Moore, will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre Saturday Sunday and Monday, August 7, and 9. This is an adaptation from the celebrated comedy strips by William Conselman and Charles Tumb and is easily one of the most interesting and entertaining films ever seen on the screen. In it Colleen Mooro is given chance to do some excellent acting and to display her versatility in remarkable way. Lloyd Hughes a Wait Litter, the ice man, does some remarkably good acting. All together, "Ella Cinders" is a picture that because of its interest among children (routine unexpectedly) all who see are certain to like immensely. See it week-end and enjoy while seeing it the quietness, coolness and comfortableness of the renialissance Theatre. "Road to Mandalay" at Douglas and Roosevel One of the Strangest Assemblages to Be Seen in This Thrilling Season Malays, half-casts, multitoads and Oriental mingled in one of the strangest assemblages gathered at a given a screen studio, for the filming of "The Road to Mandalay," Lon Chaney's new Metro-Goldwyn Mayer vehicle coming the latter part of the week to the Roosevelt and Douglas Theatres. It is a vivid drama of Sinapore, Mandalay, and the Bengal Bay region with Chaney in the role of "Sinapore Joe," weired and slister ruler of the Sinapore underworld Probably every race on earth was played by crowd scenes in the big production. Tod Browning, who produced "The Unholly Three" and "The Black Bird," both starring Chaney, had directed "The Road to Mandalay" from a story written by himself and Herman J. Mankiewicz. This Is How They Look Down at the New Lincoln Theatre Howard, Brown and Smith Are Being Supported by This Sprightly Bunch of Steppers, Who Cavort and Dance in the Show Called "In Zigzag Land" Colored Operators Charge That One of Their Number Hampers Efforts Says Spirit of "All for One and One for All" Disappeared When Personal Element Entered The colored motion picture operators of this city with one voice the other day went on record stating that their lot is not such an easy one despite the progress made during the past few months. It is alleged that one who went to the film with them soaking "manhood rights," turned about face the moment he found that he would gain a little more personally for the time being. "It is the old story all over again, and it hasn't failed to work for more than a century. A certain number of our people can always get together and go on record as being to a man for a certain object, but when the time comes you will find one among the number jumping the bunch and throwing a wrench into the works." So said one of the operators the other night. Continuing, he stated: "When we started the right for recognition it was on the basis of one for all and all for one." "Now, simply because one of our number is enjoying a little more than he would perhaps gain, for the time being, with the union, he has a tendency to desert us at the psychological moment. I am of the opinion that the reason why we suffer so manyills as a race is because we are individualists, after all is said and done." "If we are called upon to make a sacrifice as a whole and somebody is looking, even reluctantly we will dig down, but when the individual is asked to make a little sacrifice, that would benefit a large number he is found wanting. This is the unfortunate state of affairs that we are facing today. If all the theatres should order the union about all of the operators would benefit by such a move. As it stands today, one operator is the benefactor and although we have tried to get him to see the light, he has successfully ducked us and even failed to attend a meeting of the whole apita of his being among the caders for a change in the conditions." If it is true that majority counts, it is fair to assume that this paper will be with the majority of the boys.

Byre Saitch, New York's premier racket wielder, won the men's singles championship of the first Eastern sectional open tournament, held here on the wonderful courts of the Manual Training School, when he met and defeated John Wilkinson of Washington, D. C., in the final round. Wilkinson had just before performed a most brilliant feat, when he put out of competition National Champion Ted Thompson in the semi-final round in a hard five-set match that came with such sadness that it left the spectators spellbound. Wilkinson's play in this round was so impressive that, after he took the two first sets, the gallery expected to see the champion fall in the third set; but, as Wilkinson let down his game, the champion raised his and won the next two rebts, to square the match. The champion was a match of 5 to 1 in deciding set, but Wilkinson main raised his game to great heights and squared it at 5-all, finally winning the set at 6-3. By his defeat of Thompson, Wilkinson loomed up as a dangerous opponent for the winner of the Holmes-Saltch semi-final match. Salutch, resulting that the defeat of his nemesis gave him a better chance at the championship, went to work against Holmes and, with as consistent a game as he has shown in years, took the 'old master' into camp in straight sets, 8-6, 6-4, 6-3. Anyone that can beat Talley in straight sets must play some tennis to do it, and that tells the story of Salutch's play. As the two finalists came up for play, there were possibly two thoughts—one expressing the confidence that if it was good enough to bent Thompson, it should beat any other player," and the other, "As long as Thompson is out, I can take care of anybody else." This Salutch proceeded to do; playing as if inspired, he ran Wilkinson ragged in the course of the match. The first set started with Wilkinson holding the service, which he soon lost at love; Salutch lost [Image of a woman's profile] NADINE Face Powder not only lightens and beautifies the skin instantly, but the sweet, flowery perfume of it surrounds you with alluring fragrance.

Nadine FacePowder CHAMPIONS CROWNED AT BORDENTOWN New Yorker and Philadelphia Tennis Leaders his own service and Wilkinson took his second service at love for a count of 2 games to 1 in his favor. Saitch then run out the next four games for the set at 6-2 twice breaking through Wilkinson's service for love games. The second set started with Wilkinson still holding service, which he won after douce had been called twice. Saitch took his own service and broke through Wilkinson's at love for a count of 2-1 in Saitch's favor. Wilkinson took the fourth game on Saitch's service and ended with his own at love. The New Yorker was taking the deep corners of Wilkinson's court with vicious, low-bounding, sliced drives which kept him racing from corner to corner. Saitch's seeming intent being to fire out the Washingtonian. Wilkinson again took Saitch's delivery and again lost his own for a count of 4-3, in favor of Saitch. Salitch lost his service again on the eighth game of the set, this time to love, but took Wilkinson's for a count of 5-4. The tenth game meant much to both, and they went out for i. Both battled hard; but, after doce had been called once, Salitch won the game and set at 6-4. Wilkinson was still holding the service at the start of the third set at which juncture the spectators felt that only a miracle would prevent the New Yorker from being crowned Eastern champion—he had outplayed the Washington entry by a large margin. They continued winning one another's service up to the fourth game for a count of 20-11. Salitch then broke through Wilkinson's and took his own, crashing through the terrific service nces in the sixth game. He then ran out the set, breaking through Wilkinson's delivery and taking his own, winning the set, match and championship at 6-2, 6-4, 6-2. In the ladies' singles event, Miss Lulu Ballard of Philadelphia, national champion, demonstrated the fact that they must come very good to take honors away from her. She defeated Mrs. Emmia Leonard of New York in the semifinal at 6-2, 6-3. E. Connick, New York's first lady player, attained for an early defeat at the hands of Miss E. Marcellus, New Jersey champion, by trimming that lady to a farewell well in the other half of the ladies' singles semi-final at 6-2, 6-1, winning the right to play Miss Ballard. This match was as pretty a match as one would like to see between ladies and an opponent up as a温柔 face of Miss Ballard for the ladies' championship. This was again demonstrated when they both met, for Mrs. Conick continued her brilliant game and pushed the national champion to the limit in the first set, losing only after a long and vallant struggle of 20 games by the score of 9-11. Like Salchit in his match, Miss Ballard was tiring her opponent, and this was evidenced when she took the second set in a walkover at 6-0. Teamed with Miss Junior of Philadelphia, Miss Ballard took the ladies' doubles championship to the City of Brotherly Love when they defeated Mrs. Conick and Mrs. Madison, both of New York, at 6-3, 6-4. Aram with Willkinson of Washington, Miss Ballard captured the mixed doubles title, defeating Fonder and Mrs. Conick, both of New York, 7-5, 6-2, thus winning three championships—one in every event she was entered—truly a champion. New York had contestants in every event for the finals but the juniors, which honor went to New Jersey. Salitch and Johnson lost to Holmes and Thompson in the men's doubles at 6-3, 6-4, 6-3, and Marron defeated Jones for the junior title at 6-4, 1-6, 6-3. During the course of two Boeske's play, Ties Gar, Washington, Mrs Tiesler of New Jersey and Mrs Aestha Alston of New York among the ladies showed promise of future greatness. New York, Washington and Philadelphia were well represented with players and, though the weather was very bad on the final days of the tournament, lots of visitors came up from the three cities by motor or rail to witness the finals. The tournament was well conditioned a bit of rain on and, had there been a storm on the last three days of the week, would have been finished without taxing the energies of the players. Much credit must be given to President Lester B. Granger and his cabinet, along with Messrs. Henry Williams, T. C. Williams and Mr. Hopper for perfection in arrangements that will add interest to the achievements of the New Jersey Tennis Association and the joyous memories of the tennis players and fans who were present. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1926 Wills-Dempsey-Tunney If Jack Dempsey should be permitted to fight Tunney in New York State before he fights Harry Wills, it would make as big a joke out of Farley and the rest of the Boxing Commission as it has already made out of Dempsey. Farley need not think that he can fool anybody by pretending that he is all for Wills, but that the two other Commissioners are overruling him. Colored people are used to that sort of humor especially from white men, who, are looking forward to Farley, are looking active political office, and are anxious to make the "culled brother" think that this particular white man, at least, was "for you." If Farley wants to prevent this injustice to Wills and this disgrace to the whole boxing business, Farley can do it. Dempsey signed a contract to fight Wills nearly a year ago, and somebody posted a $50,000 forfeit for him—and neither was to fight any other person before the year was out, during which time Dempsey was supposed to fight Wills. Harry Wills has kept strictly to the terms of this contract, than a pugilist: he is a man and a gentleman. In the real sense of the word, if Dempsey fights Tunney in September anywhereto, we expect Wills to claim and hold this $50,000 forfeit. And we have heard it from a source that makes it more that mere rumor that an effort has been made to buy off Willis for just $100,000. At last white people will learn that a Negro who happens to be a pugilist does not have to be a venal scoundrel. Perhaps even colored people do not realize what type of man Willis is, and what it means to have a man like him up front when this effort is being made to bar out and discredit their race. The truth is that the white world has no broker to oppose to him who is his moral equal—if they have any who is his pugilistic equal. Willis has them in a corner, and we want him to hold them there until they confess, or come clean—William Pickens, New York City, Aug. 1. Hilldale Clubs Three Harrisburg Hurlers for a 12 to 5 Victory PHILADELPHIA, July 31.—Hitting the ball to all airs of the Darby enclosure, the Hilladle Club chased two Harrisburg pitchers, treated a third in a rough manner and trounced Oscar Charleston and his Harrisburg contingent by the count of 12 to 5. The victory for Hilladle gave Ed. Bolden's team three games out of the four game series. The day proved to be a gala one for the Hilladle club swingers and they pecked away at the offerings of the trio of Harrisburg pitchers for 18 hits that totaled 23 bases. Jake Stevens, the Hilladle shortstop, led his mates with four safeties, two of which were the result of beating out buns. With the exception of Judy Johnson, every one in the Hilladle line-up registered one or more hits. Bizz Mackey and Frank Warfield carried the brunt of the burden when it came to driving in runs. Mackey sent over a quartet of runs with his double and single, while Captain Warfield drove in a number with his back and a number with his front of the Hilladle scoring was confined to innings when two men had been retired. In the hectic fifth inning the home team scored four runs after two were out and again in the seventh the Daisies counted twice with two down. Phil Cockrell went the entire route for the home team and the visitors trotted out a trio of hurlers. Although Cockrell was hit for nine safeties, his team mates made the victory secure with a dozen and a half clean hits. "Nick" Carter started on the hill for Colonel Strothers' club, but was snatched out in the fourth inning after Phil Cockrell opened that session with a triple to center. Ping Gardner was rushed to the mound and checked the bats in that round but ran into trouble in the fifth and after the home team had rolled up five scores, Gardner was chased and Henry Gillespie strolled into the danger zone. Clint Thomas pulled the feature play of the game when he came racing in and made a diving one hand grab of Perez' low liner in the eighth inning. We were rounds of applause from the stands. "Geechie" Corbett was chased from the park for beckling the umpire from the Harrisburg park. bench. - HILLDALE. R. H. O. A. E. Briggs, rf. 2 3 1 3 0 0 Wyndell, 2b. 2 1 2 3 0 0 Mackey, c. 1 2 4 4 0 J.

THE winning streak of the Bacharach Giants, who had won fifteen of their previous sixteen games, was broken by the Lincoln Giants Sunday, August 1. The New York team took both ends of a double header, shutting the visitors out in the first game by a score of 4-0, and winning the other by a score of 7-5. BOTH games were pitcher's battles, with Henderson and Chambers as the opposing pitcher for the first and Grier and Gisentaner the opposing moundmen in the closing event. The Bacharach Giant pitcher had a strikeout in the number of hits allowed, but the local team gave their pitchers better support and bunched their hits. HENDERSON allowed, but four hits for eight innings; two of these were made by Corporal Charlie Mason, late of the Newark Stars. His first hit, a single, scored Young from first base and his second hit, a double, to Chambers allowed seven hits during this game but kept them well scattered. GRIER had the Lincoln's at his mercy until the sixth inning of the other game. In this inning he became somewhat wild and allowed two men to get on bases. Then Tom Finley came up and smashed out a homer, tying the score. Another batting rally by the Lincoln's eighth put them out in front. THIS game was marred somewhat by wanglings and arguments with the umpire. Marcel was put out of the game during an argument with the umpire, leave the field promptly, Umpire Hanson pulled his watch and ordered the game forfeited. Jim Keenan, as a commissioner of the game, ordered this too technical decision and ordered the contest completed. ROYAL GIANTS MET DEFEAT Bay Ridge defeated the strong Brooklyn Royal Giants Sunday afternoon in a slugging bee, winning by a score of 12 to 8, at Graham Field. Hockenberry was again in a Bay Ridge uniform, and the Giants won the opposing team to 11 hits. The second inning proved to be the worst frame for the Bay Ridge twirler, when the Giants pounded him for four runs. After that he kept the Giants' hits scattered. TOTAL GROUPS AB. R. B. H. O. A.

New York State Open Tennis Championships Under Way in Harlem New York State Open Tennis Championships Under Way in Harlem Brilliant Field, Which Includes Many Players From Out of Town, Starts Battle on Local Courts By ARTHUR E. FRANCIS. The Tenth Annual New York State Open Championships, under the auspices of the New York Tennis Association, opened on Monday, August 2, continuing throughout the week, up on the courts of the E. & S. Tennis Club, at 146th street, between Seventh and Eighth avenues. The schedule of events calls for men's and ladies' singles, men's and ladies' doubles, mixed doubles, and junior singles. Hilldale Blanks Harrisburg Giants in Abbreviated Game A very large and beautiful silver trophy has been donated by the management of the Savoy Ballroom for competition in the men's singles event, a three years' cup, more beautiful than any we have seen in the past. For the ladies' singles event the Braithwaite cup, donated by the Braithwaite Business School of Seventh avenue, is still in competition, having been won in 1924 by Miss Isadora Channels of Chicago and in 1925 by Miss Ora Washington of Philadelphia. In addition, there are several beautiful cups donated by leading men of Harlem. The entries from out of town are exceedingly brilliant, among whom will be found National Champion Ted Thompson, Talley Holmes, the "old master," who, with Thompson, are national doubles champions; John Wilkinson, who, like Talley, is an institution, so far as Negro tennis is concerned; Miss Gant, ladies' champion of Washington and a new player to appear in Eastern competition of whom a great future is predicted. Among those from Philadelphia will be missed Miss L. Junior, Miss Washington, Miss Albert Ballard, sister to the national ballard, and herself a player of no mean ability; Dr. Gordon, Junior Ashe, and a host of others. New Jersey entries Include Miss Marcellus, the New Jersey champion; also Miss Vaughan, Mrs. Saddler, Mrs. Thornhill, Ken. Worde, New Jersey men's champion; McWilson, Granger, Marron and Craig, juniors, and some others. There are 77 entries up to press time in the men's singles event, eight of whom are seeded as follows: Thompson, Saitch, Holmes, Wilkinson, Geo. Smith, K. Worde, Dr. Richardson, and F. Johnson. Twenty-one in ladies' singles, with the seeded players being: Miss Washington, Miss Ballard, Mrs. Conick, Miss Junior, Miss Gant, Mrs. Leonard, Miss Marcelius, Mrs. Alston. Twenty-seven men's doubles, 18 mixed doubles, 11 juniors. The ladies' doubles were not completed up to press time, but kept a dozen combinations in sight. The field is so rich in talent that the weekly play should bring out some highly good tennis. Dr. D. Hodge is referee, aided by Arthur E. Francis and Robt A. Wood as alternates, and the tournment committee is headed by Mr. L. E. Spooner. During the week there will be a dance at the Savoy Ballroom, a night at "Small'a" and a banquet. The trophies are being exhibited at the tailoring establishment of Heron, 139th street and Seventh avenue, for good weather. It should be one of the best tournaments held by the New-York Tennis Association in years. IF YOUR BLOOD IS POOR YOUR APPETITE BAD AND YOU CAN'T SLEEP TAKE GLANTOX AT ALL DRUG STORES Columbia Conservatory of Music 368 CONVENT AVENUE, NEW YORK Between 146th and 146th Streets DIRECTOR, RUDOLF GRAU Hilldale Blanks Harrisburg Giants in Abbreviated Game PHILADELPHIA, July 29—Nip Winters' southpaw slants kept the Harrisburg Giants away from the plate for six innings, while the Daisies gleaned three runs from Ping Gardner's delivery. Then the rain broke up the fracas in the first half of the seventh. However, the Harrisburg crew scored two runs in this inning that went to seed when the game was called and the score reverted back to the former inning. Johnnie Beckwitt was responsible for the Harrisburg with a home run over the left field fence with Charleston on first base. Hildale nicked Gardner for two runs in the opening session when Briggs opened up with a double and Vardell Thomas and Carr through with singles. The other Hildale tally was put over in the fifth when Winters tripped against the center field fence and scored on Briggs' single. Walter Cannady, the Harrisburg shortstop, made an attack upon Umpire Duncan outside of the park after the game was over and thrust a bat through the window of the umpire's automobile, shattering the glass.

Godfrey goes east to participate in a fight but not in a boxing ring. The coming battle will most likely be in the courts of New York City and the participants will be James Daugherty of Leiperville, Pennsylvania, and the actual manager of Godfrey, F. C. Caffey, M. D., of New York, who claims to have a contract on Godfrey, and big George himself. In an open letter to James Daugherty and the press, F. C. Caffey, M. D., claims that the commissions of California and New York have dogged his claims. However it is a positive fact that James Daugherty has acted as Godfrey's manager in California and the boxing commission has recognized him as such. Godfrey before he boarded a train for New York stated that Daugherty was his legal manager and it is quite certain that Godfrey will "string" with the "Baron of Leiperville" in a court fight. Meets Herman in Portland. The stay of Godfrey in the cast will be limited as he is booked to box Tiny Herman in Portland, Oregon, the latter part of August.

Scout Troops are busy now planning for camping trips. Regular meetings at their headquarters often discontinued for the summer. When out from a tree there hopped with glee. A big, fat, husky toad. Says the toad to the Scout: "Hello, my lad." Where are you headed for?" "I'm on my seven mile hike," says he. "And I've only one mile more." SCOUT MARCHING SONG We're a scouting troop that's flown the coop For a rolllicking, roving tramp; We're a bunch of boys who know the joys Of making a forest camp. We know the trail when stars are pale Or by the light of day. And our haversacks are on our backs. So let us be on our way.

Now, it Russia fe only hait'as bad as American newspapers havo pletured it, the best way In the world to turn any sane man against it would be to let him seq {t for himself, Frankly, it Keoms to us that Mississippi and ‘New York newspapers are afraid that, {f American Negroes sée Moscow, they'may conclude that it s a darn sight batter clviliza- tfon than what they see in Vicks burg and Yonkers, 1 tell you, thera fs something inconsistent between this Ameri- can report ahout Russia and this American ferr of letting Amer!- cons see Russia. They are cer- tainly not afraid that American Nogroes will hate what they see in Russe. or that they will con- clude that Mississippi is a bet- ter place to live in than {fs “aw- ful” Russia. If a visit to Mos- cow were expected to make Ne- grees more willing to be oppress- ed in Mississippl, then Missts sipp would send annually a State delegaton of Negroes to Moscow to come back and report. Well, whet ARE they afraid of? Draw your own conclusions, Sembol Herbert K. Stockton Prominent attorney of New York City, educated at Harvard, Herbert K, Stockton has been active in the preparation of im- portant cases which the N. A. A..©. P, has carried before high state and Federal courts. Late- lp Mr. Stockton undertook re- viston of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and’ his revised and strength ened version of the measure was introduced in Congress. Mr. Stockton ia B member of the National Leral Committec of the NA. A.C. P. and a member ot the Board of Directors, the stand. I'll let them testify me into hell first.” “No, you won't!” she cried spiritedly. “I don't care about my good name or anything else if you're convicted. If you don’t take the stand, I will. If you don’t want to tell about me, I'll tell about myself, and I'll see that Mr. Ross and everybody else does. Mr. Binner, too, can tes- tify, for the was in the office when Mr. Ross got the tele- phone message, and. he saw Mr. Ross give me the papers and heard al] that was said. That makes two witnesses besides myself, So you won't help matters any by refus- ing to take the stand.” “But you'll brand yourself for life, Laura.” “I don’t care!” she broke out passionately. “I'll brand myself a thousand times to help you. I'd even be what Brocker tried to make you think I was if it would save your life. Oh, Dick, Dick, I love you! I love youl” She was now sobbing with such intensity that the guard came and gently drew her away. After that the days went slowly by, enlivened occa- sionally by visits from friends, Dick had many friends; his open ways had made him popular-and his newspaper ability had won respect. He learned that all Harlem was agog with the murder, The feeling. was that Brocker deserved to be murdered, and more and more ugly stories about him came to light. One rumor was especially persistent. Brocker was said to have been a pursuer of young girls barely in their teens, and even younger. Men said they had seen school children slyly leaving or entering his rooms. They had not said such things when he was alive, for he was all- powerful with the politicians and if a charge had been brought against him it would have been squelched. Nevertheless. he had been murdered and the law was sworn to avenge him. Not knowing the facts, most of Dick's friends were astounded that he, the frank, genial boy with so much before him, should have committed a murder. “A man ten times as good as Brocker had to die for killing Brocker. The boy really did the community a ser- vice.” That sentiment, voiced by one of Dick’s friends, showed the gneral feeling. It was no wonder, then, that the court house was crowded when the day of Dick’s trial came, and. everyone in the crowd, except the very small knot of Brocker’s intimates, hoped for the boy’s acquittal. It was a hope rather than expectation, for they all believed that, whatever the extenuating circumstances, Dick Nelson had killed Brocker. When Dick was led into the crowded court room a First Church Outside Palestine in Africa Bringing to lignt the fact that the first Christian Church In any country outside of Palestine was established in Africa, a recent issue of the Presbyterian of the South says: “So tar as we have any account given us, the first Christian to go with the mes- sago of salvation through a cruck fied Saviour to any country out- side of Palestine was the treas- urer of the Queen of Ethiopia, who was led to accept salvation through the efforts of Philip, as they traveled: together on the road. Ethiopia was a country {n Africa south of Egypt. This country corresponded somewhat to what is known as Abyssinia. “ay far back as history can be traced there has been a Christian church {n that country. Noth- withstanding its early start, that church never extended {ts in- fluence very far, and through all the ages Africa has been the ‘dark continent’ for the light of salvation did not reach many of its millions of people.” Although the — Presbyterian church first undertook mixsion- ary work in Africa only thirty- two years ago, jt now has six principal stations, with more than 500 outstations. There are seventy-seven miesionaries work- ing there with 1,800 native work- ers and thousands of natives are being Christianized through this induces. Boston Boasts of Expert Photostat Operator BOSTON. — Massachusetts 1s proud of James B. Reed, expert Photographer and photostat op- erator for the Commonwealth, who is engaged in duplicating the collection of 200,000 papers that tell the story of Massachusetts Bay ‘from 1625 down to the be- ginning of the United States of America, Last year, Reed, who nilgrated north from North Caro- Una in 1878, made $0,000 prints. Tn one stretch of eighteen bours he turned out, washed, dried, trimmed to size and as- sembled 722 prints, which 1s be- Meved to be the photostatic roc- ord of the world. In 70 seconds Reed can turn out an enlarge ment of a facsimile of some old letter of John Hancock's, or an oxect roproduction of. military Tecords or precious manuscripts, The reproductions. also partake of coins, medals, wax minia- urres, and all sorts of relics.

The first thing to attract tho traveller's eye are the street signs and advertisement boards, which are written trom top to bottom, instead of from left to wight. Japanese newspapers and books begin at the end. The {oot notes are printed at the top of the page, and punctuation marks inserted at the beginning of a sentence. Japanese begin writing at the top righthand cor- ner of a page and write from top to hottom. Thoy use narrow- width paper in long rolls and brush Inetead of pen or pencil Japaneso kimonos fold over from left to right, except those used for the dead, which fold from right to left.’ White is the slenal of mourning, Instead of black, As a mark of politeness, Jap- anese remove their shoes and “geta,” or wooden clogs, and not their hats. Men always take precedence over women—walk uhead in the streets, got Into a Yehicle first, and are first served at meals. “Gentlemen first” is the rule in the Orient, At meals, wine and sake are drunk before dinner and the sweets are served first. Babies are strapped on their mothers’ backs, not carried in their arms. ‘Japanese squat Imeeling on the floor with their feet tucked up under them. {n- atead of sitting on chairs, When leaving a Japanese hotel you tip tha proprietor, not the waiter. When a Japanese rides, he mounts his horse on the right side, instead of the lew. The parts of the harness fasten on the right side, and the horse's mane hangs to the left. Horses are stabled with heads toward tho entrance and fed at the stall door. Fishermen haul up their vos- sels on the beach” stern first. Boats are rowed with one car, called a yuloh, which 1s placed in the stern, This oar does not sweep the’ water, but is moved from side to side. All tools and implements are used contrariwise to our way. Carpenters saw and plane to ward themselves, instead of away. Japanese keys turn in ward instead of out. ‘When building a house, the Ispanese construct the roof first, mumber the pieces, take it down, wave of applause arose. It was instantly suppressed by the judge and the court attendants, but it at least showed which way public sympathy ran. Judging by the positions in life of many in the audi- ence, it might have been a social gathering of Harlem’s elite. All the members of the business and professional world who could afford the time were present to give Dick their moral support. They listened patiently to the usual preliminaries, and when the time came to call the wit- nesses they settled back with a long-drawn breath, The first witness called by the prosecuting attorney was Reuben Jenkins, a waiter employed in Brocker’s caba- ret. Dick Nelson instantly recognized him as the man who had rushed into the room at the head of a crowd and jerked him off Brocker’s body. Jenkins was a small, light- colored, smooth-shaven man with close-cut hair and large, rolling eyes. He gave his age as forty and his occupation as waiter in the cabaret, where he had been employed five years. He testified that he had heard there was fighting in Brocker’s rooms; that he and several others had rushed up- the stairs; that he had heard’ Brocker’s death cry before reaching the door of the room; that upon enetring he had found Brocker on the floor with Nelson on top of him. Such were the salient points of Jenkins’ testimony, and they seemed condemning enough. When the prosecutor was done Frank Greene, Dick’s lawyer, rose to examine the witness, and Dick's friends turned to him hopefully. To Greene's questions Jenkins gave the same anSwers as to the prosecutor's. Then Greene paused thoughtfully for a moment. “Now, Mr. Jenkins,” he resumed, “was there anything unusual in the appearance of the room—besides the corpse of Mr. Brocker?”” “A couple of chairs was upset and the rug was all wrinkled up.” “Was a window open?” “Yes, I remember now, one was open. But that wasn’t nothing ‘unusual. It was a hot night, I oughta know, ‘cause I was runnin’ perspiration.” : “Which window was it?” ” “The one by the fire escape.”- . . The audience sighed hopefully at this sudden dawning possibility, but the answer to the next question dashed their hopes. “Was Mr. Brocker lying in such a position that, if he had been standing, his back would have been toward the window?” “No, sir. His head was toward the door. He would and then put it back again when the house is completed, They make the garden in the back, and the best rooms in the house face towaris the back, and the Kitchen js in the front part. Ser- vants insist on dusting first and sweeping afterward. When .sew- ing, they put the needle on the thread, instead of threading the needle. The needle Is held still and the cloth run upon it. After a bath Japanese dry themselves with a wet towel. In the hottest Summer weather they bathe for hours in hot wa- ter, kept warm by a charcoal fire. Even in extremely hot weather they prefer hot green tea to iced drinks. Theatrical performances begin in the morning and last all day, the same piece lasting for sev: eral days. There are no seats— the audience squats on the floor in little boxes ike the nests of sitting hens. In old-style Japan- ere plays there are no actresses, but men actors—Onna-Gaku— play women’s roles. —New York Times. Evolution Slashed From Tex.

When Children Won’t Drink Milk It often happens that children rebel at drinking their necessary quota of milk. The refusal to drink milk is not due to the child's will, but to the complicated phyato- chemical reactions of its appetite. Dieticlans have found the an- swer to the problem, in disguising the apparent characteristics of the milk without altering its nutritive characterlatics. They have increag- ed the nutritive values and im- proved the digestive qualities by the addition of malt and chocolate to the milk, Ronkomalt is a powder designed to dissolto readily In either cold or hot milk. It should be shaken up with tho milk, either in a bottle or @ beverage compounder or “shaker,” “That chocolaty taste" $e a treat sufficient to bribe children into good behavior for o whole ove- ning.

The witnesses who followed Jenkins all bore out ‘his. testimony, and could not be shaken by Greene. Some of them said they had known Nelson as a newspaper report- er, but no one could throw any light on a motive for the killing. The defense then presented as a witness Washington Ross. After the nondescripts who had testified, Ross came as a contrast. He was a quietly dressed, serious man of forty-five, with a dark, intelligent face, and carried him- self with a dignified, business-like air. He took the oath, gave his name and age, and said that he was a real estate operator. » “Mr. Ross,” said Greene, “were you the employer of Miss Laura Stevens as late as June sixteenth?” The prosecuting attorney arose. “Your Honor, I object to that question on the ground of irrelevancy.” ‘ “Your Honor,” rejoined Greene, “I propose to show that that question is distinctly. relevant.” é “Objection denied. The defense will proceed,” said the ‘ourt. “Thank you, Your Honor,” resumed Greene. “Mr. Ross, Miss Stevens was in your employ as bookkeeper and ste- nographer at that date?” “Yes, sir.” Dick's and Laura’s friends stared in surprise. What ‘ had Laura Stevens, of all women, to do with this case? “Did you, on that day, about two o’clock in the after- noon, receive a telephone message from James Brocker in regard to his signing some papers?” - . “Yes, sir.” “Did he say that he was too ill to come to your office?” “Yes, sir.” i ‘ “Did’ he suggest that, as the papers had to be signed immediately, you send them to his rooms?” “Yes, sir.” “Did he suggest Miss Stevens as the bearer of those papers?” : “I remember he did.” 5 “And you sent her with them?” “Yes, sir.” “That is all.” The prosecutor waived hs right to question Mr. “Rosy ‘The defense then called for Miss Laura Stevens. Amid 4 general murmur of interest and surprise Laura Stevens advanced to the bar. (To Be Continued Next Week) ef Herald-Tribune Repudiates Anti-Negro Editorial OoreN REID, owner and edl- tor of the New York “Her- ald-Tribune” and of the Parla edition of the “Herald,” has repudiated in a letter to the Ne- tlonal Association for the Ad- vancement of Colored People an editorial headed “Darrow and Boraty on the Negro” which ap- peared in the Paris “Herald” of July 7. Mr. Reld’s letter camo in reply to one from the N. A. A. C. P. asking him if this “wanton and gratuftous insult to the cul- ored people of the United States meets with your approval.” Mr. Reld replied promptly, saying in part: “While I do ‘not know what occasioned the writing of the editorial in the Paris ,‘Her- ald’ to which you refer, ‘I am able to say that {t does not rep- resent in any way the attitude of the ‘Tribune’ in the past or the ‘Herald-Tribune’ !n the present.” ‘The editorial in question wan sent to tho N. A. A.C. P. by Charles Edward Russell, a mem ber of {ts Board of Directors, who is now travelling in Europe. After speaking slightingly of the changing psychology of the Amorican Negro {rom “the ex- trome abjection of the slavery period” to “the grateful humility of the period immediately foliow- ing emancipation” and now to the demand for full equality and tights, the editorial sneeringly speaks of Clarence Darrow as a champion of the Negro. Calling much of what Mr. Dar- row afd in his recent speech at the Chicago Conference of the N. A, A. C, P. “boshy sentiment and meretricious eloquence” the writer says: ” “The stand which he (Mr. Dar- row) now takes ‘s parUly against the continuance of the focial dis- tinctions that exist between the white and colored races and partly against the continuance of Negro disfranchisement in the southern states. Even great abfiities such as Mr. Darrow posseases cannot throw down s0- celal barriers. They are erected and maintained by unwritten, {ntangiblo laws, which tImo only and the slow growth of custom can change.” ‘The writer then goes on to compare Mr. Darrow's uncom: promising stand for full fustice to the Negro with the recent statement by Senator Borah of Idaho that tho enfranchlsoment of the Negto was a graze mis tako, praising Mr. Borah for his stand, ‘In bis letter to the N. A. A, C..P. sending the editorial Mr. Russell said: “The attack is obviously ma- Nctous, spiteful and without oc- casion. There is no issuo about colored people in Europe outside of Great Britain, Whatever may be thelr attitude at home, Americans in France have no Teason to indulge in attacks upon colored Americans. It is plainly the work of some man who is gratifyisg bis personal Prejudices. I think such an ex- Libition of petty meanness should not be allowed to go un- rebuked.” The Advancement Association in thanking Mr. Reid has re- quested him, in view of his state Ment that the editorial did not meet with his approval, to take such steps as are necessary to prevent the repetition of such malicious attacks.

No party is so Clevelanders to Launch Drive for $200,000 to Build Hospital CLEVELAND, Ohio. — That the colored citizens of Cleveland are in earnest regarding building a great hospital is evidenced by systematic plans now being drawn up to secure a sum of approximately $200,000 for this purpose. Hardly had the plan for a hospital been launched before a check for $100 was contributed by Dr. M. H. Lambright, a prominent physician, who is actively interested in the movement. The movement for a hospital has its origin a few months ago when a group of colored citizens formed an organization known as the Hospital Association. After enrolling a considerable number of public-spirited persons the Hospital Association proceeded to elect the following persons as officers and trustees: Attorney Alexander Martin, president; George P. Hinton, secretary; Attorney Clayborne George, Mr. A. G. Fruzler, Mrs. Marle Taylor Brown, Attorney H. S. Chaucey, Mrs. Letha Fleming, Mr. P. W. Lemon, Mr. W. R. Morton, Mr. V. A. Washington, Mr. R. H. Small, Attorney John E. Roundtree, Attorney Wm. R. Green, Mr. J. H. Sears, Mr. Alexander O. Taylor, Mr. F. G. Martin and Mrs. C. H. Phillips. Committees Named. Immediately upon taking office the officers and trustees of the Hospital Association began the program for the erection of a hospital. "Mercy Hospital" was the name which the association decided to give the institution it is to direct. In order to effectively prescute plans, a number of committees were named, with the following persons as members: The campaign committee, P. W. Lemon, Herbert S. Chaucey, Lethila C. Fleming, Fannie S. Suggs, Marie Taylor Brown, Harvey B. Atkins, Magdeline Mallory; location committee, August G. Frazier, W. R. Green, Clayborne George; equipment committee, M. H. Lambright, Charles H. Garvin, L. O. Kaumgardner; publicity committee, Norman L. McGhee, Alexander O. Taylor, Perry B. Jackson, Ormond A. Forte. Physicians Make Pledges. At a recent meeting of the colored physicians and surgeons of the city, where the trustees of the Hospital Association were entertained as guests, a number of pledges aggregated some $2,000. According to P. W. Lemon, chairman of the Mercy Hospital campaign committee, within the next few weeks campaign headquarters of the Mercy Hospital Association will be opened with an executive secretary in charge and, under the direction of the campaign committee, a systematic drive will be waged for funds for the erection of Mercy Hospital. The entire colored population of Cleveland will be canvassed and donations to the hospital from persons in every walk of life will be solicited. Mrs. Thomas W. Fleming, a member of the campaign committee, who is ably assisting the chairman, states that she has every reason to believe that the colored people of Cleveland will rally in such a big way to the support of Mercy Hospital that they will challenge the interests of the public-spirited citizens of all classes in the city of Cleveland. As a part of the campaign com- NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 4, 1926 inittee's plan for securing funds for Mercy Hospital, a Tag and Button Day is expected to be arranged some time in the month of August. Later, perhaps the first week in October, an intensive eight-day campaign will be waged. Arkansas Officials Avert Lynching Remove Accused Prisoner to Another County as Precaution (Preston News Service) TEXARKANA, Ark., Aug. 2. Through the care and foresight of county officials Arkansas was saved the shame of another disgraceful lynching when James Williams, charged with having assaulted a woman near Ashdown Wednesday, was removed from Ashdown to Texarkana and lodged in the Miller county jail as a precaution against threatened mob violence. It was said that the woman identified Williams as the man who attacked her. When he was first brought before the woman she was a little uncertain as to his being the man who attacked her. She said, "He looks like him, but his hat was different." The officers are said to have returned to the scene of the attack where they claim they found a gray hat. This they placed on Williams' head, and when they again led him before the woman she is said to have immediately identified him. Williams lives in the outskirts of Ashdown and has been regarded by all who know him as an industrious man, causing no trouble heretofore. He is forty years old and married. FAKE EMPLOYMENT AGENT GETS 30 DAYS (Preston News Service) COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 2—Joe Williams, 339 South Seventh street, was sentenced to 30 days in the workhouse by Judge Harry B. Holmes in municipal court Thursday on each of two courts of obtaining money under false pretenses. Police charge Williams posed as an agent for a Pullman Company and collected down payments of $5 from two colored women under pretext of hiring them as maids on Pullman trains. Can't Locate Boy's Father in Columbus (Preston News Service) COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 2.-Local police and juvenile court authorities are becoming doubtful as to their ability to locate the parents of Charles Chapman, who arrived in the Union Station last Sunday morning over the Norfolk and Western railroad and who as yet has not been claimed by anyone. Upon the boy's coat lapel was a note which read: To the Conductor of the N. & W. railway—Please look after the child so that it gets to Columbus, Ohio. His father, Jesse Chapman, will meet him there." The note was signed "Sadie Coleman." No one called for the boy, who appears to be about eight years old, and he has since remained in the juvenile detention home. The youngster told officials that his name is Charlie Chapman and that his home is in "Wilson Hollow," which the authorities believe to be near Charleston, W. Va. CALLED TO HIS DOOR AND FATALLY SHOT ENFIELD, N. C., Aug. 2.—Alex Bradley, a respected man, living near the Barbaldi farm, between Enfield and Crowells, was called to his door Wednesday morning at about 3:30, and fatally shot. A shotgun loaded with buckshot was used according to the report. No motive for the killing has been advanced. Bloodhounds were rushed to the scene by W. H. Allen, in company with officers, but reports do not indicate whether the guilty person has been caught. More Exhibits at Sesqui-Centennial North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company's Offering Outstanding PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 4.—The space set aside for the composite exhibit by the Negro race in the Sequel-Centennial International Exposition, now being held in Philadelphia, is rapidly being filled with exhibits typifying the advancement of the colored people. Miss Laura Wheeler of Cheynoy, Pennsylvania, one of the race's most prominent artists, has given several demonstrations of her art in her symbolic characters on the pillows of each booth. Many types portrayed by the brush of Miss Wheeler have given a touch of originality to the entire color scheme. The miniature reproduction of the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company of Durham, North Carolina, under the direction of Roscoe Brown, is one of the outstanding exhibits. The Art Needle Work booth is artistically arranged with the many intricate pieces loaned for exhibit. The Armstrong Association has a comprehensive exhibit depicting civic and educational features. There are several rare paintings from the brush of famous artists that are now being installed. There is a general increase in attendance every day to this particular section of the building, and special music is rendered by the Fisk Student Quartette daily. The mass rehearsal of the spiritual concert, under the direction of Mr. W. Franklin Hoxter, was held this week and the enthusiasm manifested forcasts an event of unusual interest on August 23. Auto Runs Into Truck; Two Men Injured Two men were injured Wednesday night when an automobile in which they were riding ran into a truck at 165th street and Jerome avenue. The men were identified as George Bownes, 26, 146 West 143rd street, and Barney Lanvono, 24, 181 East 205th street. Lavono received abrasions and contusions of both knees and concussion of the brain, while Bownes sustained contusions of the abdomen. Both were treated by Dr. Maley, of Fordham Hospital, Bownes went home, but Lanvono was removed to the hospital. The truck was operated by Kronantano Niedleski, white, of Maspeth, L. I. He was waiting for his helper to return when the other car, driven by Bownes, turned in from 165th street and struck it. TWO DIE OF BURNS AFTER EXPLOSION (PRESSURE NEWS Service) PITTSBURGH, "Pa., Aug. 2.— George D. Mooney, 48 years old, of Geneva street, and Emery Johnston, 54 years old, of Wylie avenue, died shortly after 4 o'clock Thursday morning in Mercy Hospital. They were burned shortly before when a tube exploded in a boiler at the plant of the Union Storage Company, Second and Liberty avenues. CARD GAME QUARREL RESULTS IN SLAYING (Preston News Service), PITTSBURGH, Pa., Aug. 2. — George Walker, 38, of Woodlawn, Pa., was held for Court on a murder charge in connection with the death last Wednesday night of John Freeman, 40, also of Woodlawn, when arraigned before a coroner's jury last Thursday night. Police claim Walker shot Freeman to death following an argument over a card game, N. C. Organizes State League Meeting Held on July 30 at Wilson for That (Preston News Service) DURHAM, N. C., Aug. 2.—A state branch of the National Negro Business League was organized by the various leagues in the State at a special meeting held in Wilson, N. C., on July 20, according to R. McCants Andrews, well known local leader, who has just returned from an extensive trip to fifteen large cities of the State where he has organized Negro Business Leagues which represent a total membership of several thousand. Leagues were organized by the Durham man, who is secretary of the local league. The local representative was assisted in Western North Carolina by Professor U. S. Reynolds, principal of one of the largest colored high schools in the State, which is located at Winston-Salem, N. C. Leagues were organized in the following towns, and together with the Durham League make a total of 16 in the State: Releigh, Rocky Mount, Winston-Salem, Goldsboro, Kinston, New Bern, Wilmington, Wilson, Fayetteville, Statesville, Asheville, Charlotte, Salisbury, High Point and Greensboro. Representatives from these leagues were present at the meeting held in Wilson when the State league was formed. The Durham Negro Business League may be termed the father of the other Negro Business Leagues in North Carolina as this league was instrumental in the organization of the other leagues. The Durham League was organized here some time ago as an experimental station of National League and every effort has been put forth to establish a model league, which the other leagues will pattern after. Durham's leading colored resident, C. C. Spaulding, president of the North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company, is chairman of the executive committee of the National League, while J. M. Avery, of this city, is regional vice-president of the national organization of the fifth district, which is composed of North and South Carolina. INFANTILE PARALYSIS AFFECTS FEW NEGROES RALEIGH, N. C., Aug. 2.—That the present flurry of infantile paralysis over the State during the month of July affected few colored people is shown in the records of the disease reported thus far to the State Board of Health. Out of 34 cases of infantile paralysis developed in the month of July, only four of the cases were Negroes.

Wednesday, August 4, 1926 Old-Time Religion Given the Gate PRESIDENT CALLES of Mexico has given that good old-time religion—Roman Catholicism—the gate. In new religious regulations, he has decreed that "to exercise the ministry of any cult within the Mexican Republic it is required to be Mexican by birth; that no religious corporation shall be permitted to direct schools of primary jurisdiction; that Monastic orders are forbidden; that ministers may not associate themselves for political purposes; that the celebration of religious acts outside the church are forbidden," and providing penalties for each separate violation. AUTHORITY for the decreeing of these regulations was granted the chief executive of Mexico in 1857 and 1859, but enforcement was not attempted on such stringent lines until the present decree. Meanwhile, the country has tried almost every other way to find its way out of darkness and into light. IN A STATEMENT supporting President Calles, Dr. Antonio Castro Leal, acting head of the Mexican Embassy in Washington, says: The Church exercised a complete dominion over the country during three centuries without being able to launch a movement of progress that would, when achieved, place Mexico among the countries enjoying modern standards of life. After the war of independence, at the beginning of the nineteenth century, the Church in Mexico exercised a great political sway, but it never represented in fact a constructive power for the people. The struggle for reform put an end to a continuous state of political friction between the Liberal and Conservative parties, the latter having the decisive support of the Church. Upon the triumph of the Liberal Party it was possible to separate the Church from the State, ligniting the religious institutions to spiritual action, the only one which belongs to them. The reform movement gave to the country a Magna Charta in which there were embodied liberal principles which no other country had yet established in the middle of the nineteenth century. The policy of the Calles Government is, in fact, a continuation of the one that prompted the reform movement; and Article 130 of the Constitution of 1917, dealing with religious questions, is, in fact, the incorporation of Article 123 of the Constitution of 1857 and of the reform laws of 1859. The decree amending the Penal Code does nothing but establish regulations for laws already in existence for the last seventy years. An unbiased consideration of the facts cannot fail to show the uniformity of policy in regard to religious questions during the last seventy years. Any person with a clear idea of sociological and political movements will realize that there must exist powerful reasons and special circumstances supporting the Mexican policy in all matters concerning religious questions during the last seventy years. No unpopular movement, no problem artificially created by a Government can survive in the political calendar of a country during seventy years. After the dictatorship of Porfirio Diaz our country found great problems to be solved. The revolution of 1910 inaugurated a movement of new political ideas, and Mexico is at present passing through a creative period, spreading knowledge among the lower classes, establishing credit institutions for the benefit of in- EDITORIAL PAGE dustry and agriculture, opening roads and irrigating lands. At the present time, when the country is being reconstructed, the Government of Mexico has declared that the reactionary elements obstructing its way are instigated by the Church. To the instigations of the Church and its call to the people to disavow the Constitution and the laws of the country, the President has made answer only by putting into force the laws already in existence, which had not been enforced because of the tolerance of the Government. WE DO NOT BELIEVE that but little comparison may be made between Catholicism, as it exists in Mexico and the United States. And yet, right here in our own midst we have seen and still see the tendency of the Roman Catholic Church to inject itself into matters not necessarily religious. Until recently New York City, with a Catholic population of a million and a half, completely dominated the government of the other four million and a half. PRACTICALLY every city office, both appointive and elective, and all civil service appointments, were in the hands of and given to persons of the Catholic faith. Even now, nearly all of the employees of the Fire Department and too large a percentage of the higher offices of the Police Department are held by men who have little else but their religion to recommend them. Civil service reform and other truly democratic advancements have been made without their assistance. FORTUNATELY, the State government and the school system are not and have not been so completely in their control. Such a state of affairs as has existed here and in Mexico is iniquitous and cannot in the long run do either the church or state—or municipality—any good. It is this state of affairs that Mexico has now definitely decided is keeping her back and preventing her from taking her place among the more progressive nations of the New World. She is justified in her attempt to go from darkness into light. Maryland Justice RICHARD REESE WHITTEMORE, the "Candy Kid," will be the first white man hanged in Baltimore since 1904, twenty two years ago, during which time nine colored men have paid the extreme penalty. Of the 103 men serving life sentences for capital offenses, about 40 are colored, which proves that there are not more colored than white criminals in the State. It also proves that Maryland has two kinds of justice—a life sentence for most whites and the chair for all colored persons convicted of major crimes. EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES What Insanity Is Not (From The Sun.) A bulletin of the National Committee for Mental Hygiene has performed a service useful for laymen as well as for psychiatrists by printing in simplified form as a tabulation of concise definitions which set forth the elementary facts concerning "so-called insanity." On no subject is there greater or more widespread confusion; misconceptions and misunderstandings with regard to few other subjects lead to consequences more tragic. Popular ignorance in this case breeds popular neglect or concealment of divergences from accepted standards of mental normality, and this neglect or concealment may postpone until too late the informed treatment of originally early remediable conditions that, uncorrected, develop into or induce chronic alliments beyond the present power of science to correct. Here is a brief catalogue of "Some Misconceptions That Still Linger" which is comprehensible to every intelligent adult: "That insanity comes suddenly. "That once insane always insane." "That insanity is a disgrace, "That insanity is an unfortunate visitation to be regarded with resignation and fatalism. "That mental disease is incurable. "That asylums for the insane are dreadful places and that admission to them rings down the curtain on the lives of the victims. "That emotional shock, the loss of dear ones, disappointment in love, economic loss and other human misfortune cause insanity. "That insanity is a specific disease entity. "That nobody can guard against mental disease. "That a person is either sane or insane. "That 'nervous breakdown' is a disease of the nerves." For the encouragement of sufferers from disease manifesting itself in mental disturbance, slight or marked, there should be set opposite these miscon- ington are oulogized by contemporaries and co-workers, there is more than transitory value to what was said. "Perhaps the most illuminating and valuable sections are those dealing with the early protests, which are surprising in their advanced tone and competent character, with the Negro anti-slavery orators, speeches of the Negro Senators and Representatives during the period of congressional representation. But the outstanding virtue of the book is, after all, that it is comprehensive—that it gives a vivid and yet reliable panoramic view both of representative Negro thought and of the whole Negro question." That "the Negro is not more susceptible to tuberculosis because of physical makeup or inherent racial traits" is proved conclusively by Dr. Charles H. Garvin, a prominent physician of Cleveland, Ohio, in a paper on the "Immunity to Disease of Dark-Skinned People" in the August number of Opportunity, Journal of Negro Life, published by the National Urban League, 127 East 23rd street. Dr. Garvin's findings are of immense racial import. His paper reflects WHAT OUR READERS HAVE TO SAY THEMSELVES Letters and short contributed editorials on subjects deemed of interest are invited for these columns. "Robbing Peter to Pay Paul" The present drive among the powers that be to break an "number playing" in New York City can be well given the above title. This pastime, crime, sin or whatever name one chooses to call it is largely indulged in by Negro players. Negro runners and Negro bankers. Four years ago colored men who were as poor as Job's turkey are today millionaires, riding around in Lincoln, Marmons and other high-priced cars with valuable property also listed to their credit, and, mind you, this is not an educational attainment, but merely the result of luck. Such rapid success has not passed-by unnoticed, jealousy has crept into the folds and today Jews, Italians and whatnots are galloping to Harlem, getting into the "number game." They all feel that this is entirely too good for "Negroes" and they are determined with the help of the law to divert some of this unrushing money into their coffers. There is hardly a cigar stand, grocery store, tailor shop, drug store or any other business operated by man, other than colored, where numbers are not solicited and taken with the assurance that no commission will be deducted and that you will get the full amount of your hit. Even some of the Chinese laundries greet their customers with: "I takes number, I feel here." Some of these cigar stands have police protection, that is, a cop is standing out in front of the place cognizant of what is going on. It is a customary sight any morning to watch thousands of colored people ducking in and out of these places, putting in their numbers on the way to work, after having had ceptions "What Science Is Teaching Today": "That insanity develops gradually over shorter or longer periods of time. "That many of the insane are restored to health after a period of hospital treatment. "That insanity is a condition no more to be ushamed of than pneumonia or a broken limb. "That insanity is mental disease and should receive medical attention, just as tuberculosis, cancer or other physical conditions. "That many persons with mental disease are being cured today and restored to health and normality. "That our asylums are being turned into hospitals in which the insane receive medical care and treatment, and from which between 25 and 40 per cent are discharged recovered or improved. "That personal misfortune and tragedies are frequently the precipitating causes of insanity, but that the accumulation of a variety of factors inherent in the progressive life experience of the individual is really responsible for unsettling mental balance and bringing on mental breakdowns. "That insanity is a convenient term used by the courts to denote irresponsibility in the eyes of the law, and that there are many different kinds of mental disorder just as there are many kinds of physical disorder. "That there are usually danger signals and symptoms of an approaching breakdown that can be recognized and medically dealt with. "That there are different degrees of mental health, just as there are varying degrees of physical health. "That 'nervous breakdown' is in reality a mental condition in which there is seldom anything organically wrong with the nervous system." The simplicity of definition employed in these tabulations renders them particularly useful for general circulation. They should relieve the fear of many persons and stimulate them to submit their cases to the study of qualified specialists by whom their alliments may be diagnosed and appropriate treatments prescribed. Particular attention should be paid to the fact that no aligment attaches to injury, but that the healing of it is more creditable about mental disease keeps more sufferers from correction than any other obstacle, unless it be failure to recognize early symptoms of morbid conditions. Virginia Reconsiders The case of Susie Boyd proves that Richmond, Virginia, at least, stands for justice to the Negro. Susie forged twenty-two small checks, amounting to $183. Arrested on three indictments, she pleaded guilty, and, without jury or even counsel, was sentenced to three years in prison. Each charge, amounting to thirty years in prison. Thereupon a crop of protests sprang up—not, as might be expected, from the Negro community. The Dr. Locke Praises Woodson's Book Dr. Locke Praises Woodson's Book (Preston News Service) In his review of Dr. Carter G Woodson's book, "Negro Orators and Their Orations" in a recent issue of The Nation, Dr. Alain Locke says: "This compilation of orations and addresses by Negro leaders, from as early a date as the first pamphlet broadside against slavery in 1788—by a Negro who wisely chose a pseudonym—to race leaders recently dead or still living, is a brave and on the whole quite successful attempt to make oratory interpret social and historical issues. "Ordinarily oratory is an unrelieable weather-vane of social opinion, but for most of period covered by this particular study the issues were so vitally serious in the mind of the Negro as to give an unusual sobriety and seriousness even to his oratorical paintings. Careful historical comment upon the issues under discussion has given the collection unusual interpretative value. The volume becomes, therefore, a somewhat unique source-book for the history of the various social and political problems of the Negro. "Comparatively little eulogistic and occasional oratory has been included and though there are many selections which are not brilliant examples of oratorical style and form, few of the selections fail to qualify as important social documents. And when figures as significant as Garrison, Wendell Phillips, Sumner, Frederick Douglass and Booker Wash- To the Editor of The Amsterdam News Dear St: (From The Nation.) all night to dream what's coming out for that day. It seems that colored people will still be the ones to play this game after the colored bankers and runners have been bullied and broken up and the number game is safely sucked away on ice for the white banker. This form of gambling will then be well organized and the police department can make their daily rounds to the business places gathering in the rake-off and graft that they are now deprived of because of their inability to locate just where the runners and bankers count the money. Individually, I am diabolically opposed to gambling in any form, but what is "sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander," and the real plan is not to break up "number playing" altogether, but to get it away from the Negro bankers and let the white bankers prosper at it. It is really sad when quite a few of our preachers and other thinking men are allowing the authorities to pull the wool over their eyes in this connection. The majority of the Negro bankers have purchased valuable apartment houses in the very best neighborhoods and today colored tenants are able to rent and occupy places owned by these bankers that they never would have gotten into: I believe in giving the devil what's due him, and on a whole Negroes have prospered rather than lost in this number game. Yet, I say, break it up, but don't attempt to force none of that Harry Wills-Dempsey-Tunney stuff on the people, having them believe one thing when everything is cut and dried for just the opposite. Start right in the white business places and break them up. Don't make war upon the colored and at the same time establish a compromise with the whites. This is something to think about as little as you think of it. FRANK (SCOPE) LAWRENCE. New York City. white press of Richmond took a firm and dignified stand in editorials against the extreme sentence, and printed columns of letters of protest, some from Negroes but most from whites. The News-Leader in an editorial pointed out that on the same day when Susie was sentenced to thirty years for a forgery of $183, a white woman received a two-year supeeded sentence for shoplifting goods to the value of $13,000. The Times-Dispatch asked the court's leave to join as an amicus curiae in a plea for a reopening of the case, which was made by H. W. Oppenheimer, a white lawyer, who volunteered his services in Susie's defense. Finally, on the ground that Susie was mentally subnormal and did not understand her right to sue, the judge from Richmond reopened the case and reduced the sentence from thirty years to six. The News-Leader commends Judge Mathews for his courage in openly admitting and correcting a serious mistake. To this praise we gladly add our own hearty commendation of the News-Leader, the Times-Dispatch, and the citizens of Richmond. They made real the old theory that all are equal before the law. The Triumph of Vulgarity (From the Chicago Bee.) The Columbia Record Company has announced "Shake That Thing," a record made by Ethel Waters, is the most widely sold record this company has ever made. It has passed the 800,000 mark and will go to a million. The American people crave fifth and dirt. They thrive on a diet of mud. Like microbes they grow in dark and cavernous quarters. They rellish artistic carrion. They are prudent for song's suggestive of the vulgar. They itch for sex. We refer to the white people first, and then to their colored imitators. Here is proof positive of it: For this popular song is about the most vulgar, sordidly suggestive, indecent in connotation which any company has put upon the market. Devoid of richness of rhythm, lacking in beautiful music, unsuspectably low in language, song is a tawdry, musically cheap and linguistically compromised, compared with which "Yes, We Have No Bananas" was as a production from Bach or Besthoven. "Shake That Thing" was sold to white and colored people. It is a record breaking record of a great record company. It is what the American people want. Risque, daring and bold—it parades without tights, stockings or lingerie. It is naked and voluptuous. It is Joyce Hawley, nude and drunk in a tub of wine. It is jazz stark made. George Schuyler, celebrated satirist of the Messenger, calls it the Negro's National Anthem. We think he limited its possession too much. It would seem to be America's national anthem. More Americans claim it than any other song. Millions shake to "Shake that thing." And "that's that." --- LETTERS the passion of the research scholar, and is not too erudite for the lay reader.

THE POET'S CORNER Poems submitted for publication in "The Poet's Corner" will not be returned unless accompanied with a self-addressed and stamped envelope. MAN IS NOT MERE FLESH, bone, and brain. He's that what at his best he can attain His life inspires the state, mayhaps the age, A human dynamo, lighting up history's page. Not great to war, not mighty to destroy, But simple, good, the graces all employ. Not strong enough to kill the lion or bear, But strength with heart and soul to do and dare. The will, and noble impulse angels know, A traveler along the way God's angels go, What petty strength ferocity can vent! God gave it not to lions the Christ He sent. His strength was mercy, love, forgiveness, all So pure, so much for all men who might fall. A real man may be the noblest thing, Whose virtues elevate, enrich, enhance a king. The "New" Harlem Hospital HARLEM HOSPITAL is a municipal institution situated in the center of the Negro population of New York City. It is by reason of its situation the most important hospital to the Negroes of Harlem. On April 7, 1924, the combined committee of laymen and physicians sent a letter to the officials of Harlem Hospital pointing out the fact that Harlem Hospital should serve three distinct functions: L. The immediate care of the sick. 2. The advanced medical and surgical education of the physicians of the community. 3. The health education of the people of the district which the hospital tries to serve This letter also showed conclusively that Harlem Hospital was not functioning properly and justly among Negroes, as far as these three distinct functions are concerned. Many conferences were held with the Mayor, trustees of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals and the medical and surgical staffs of Harlem Hospital; the Negroes were insistent; the white physicians and officials were finally convinced that the demands were just, and now Harlem Hospital is a better, bigger and more efficient institution. In fact, it is a "new" Harlem Hospital, because the Negro physicians and surgeons who are charged with the responsibility of the health of the community are now getting a wider utilization of the facilities of the hospital. Negro surgeons are operating in the hospital; Negro physicians are being treated in clinical medicine. Negro physicians are in attendance in the clinic and interns in the hospital. There is a spiritual and mental harmony between doctors and patients. The slok in the hospital are now considered as having a body, a mind, and a soul. The Negroes no more are afraid to go to the Harlem Hospital. Confidence is established. What are these adventages which Negroes have gained in the hospital? Dr. Louis Wright has just been promoted to the surgical staff. He is a man of established ability and, with the added facilities which his new position offers, I predict that he will develop into This organization is composed of sixteen young Negro musicians, nearly all of Southern birth and all endowed with beautiful natural voices. The object of this group is to present the religious songs of their race in a less formal style than that in which they are generally heard on the concert stage, and to retain that rare spirit of genuine improvisation with which they are sung by their creators. These singers have been working together less than a year and have made only a few public performances. But the beauty of their voices, the freshness of their tunes and the zest and spontaneity with which they work themselves into the work have already won for them many friends and make it safe to predict a successful career in their special field. Some of the members of this organization have already attracted attention as soloists featuring Negro music. Special mention should be made of William Service Bell, baritone, who has given several successful recitals in New York and else- What Is Man? M. A.

Dr. Alonzo Smith, specialist in children's diseases, is now a visiting physician in the Department of the Diseases of Children. Dr. Smith knows his chosen; field of work and is an added asset to the hospital staff. Seventeen other Negro physicians are now on the hospital staff working as internes and in the Out Patient Department. These are the outstanding advancements made in the relationship between the hospital and the community. Between the Negro sick and the Negro doctors of Harlem a program of co-operation has been established, and at Harlem Hospital the sick will get correct information, wise instruction, firm but gentle encouragement, tactful and inspiring persuasion, careful attention and maximum skill. where. Mr. Bell, a pupil of the late David Blispham, is now a member of the cast of "Lulu Belle," the current B lasco success.

E. Church. Augustus Simons, with his highly characteristic voice and vivid personality, is rapidly making a name for himself in the field of theatrical entertainment. Hall Johnson, the organizer and director of the Jubilee Singers, is well known as a composer and his novel arrangements of Negro Spirituals have attracted favorable attention. As a further demonstration of his ideals, Mr. Johnson, has written ten the music and lyrics of open-air Negro life in the rural South.
