THREE WHO MADE PLUNGE FROM TOP FLOOR ALIVE
BY THE CAMERAMAN
PRESTON NEWS SERVICE
OME one has said that
Greed is one of mankind's
most mortal sins, but if W.
G. Landes, Secretary of the
World Sunday School Alliance,
was correctly quoted
just a few days ago, when
he lectured in New York
City upon "Race Problems
in Africa." Greed and Gluttony
are merely virtues,
when the interests of African
whites and blacks are
being weighed in the balance.
"In the opinion of the
whites," said Mr. Landes,
"missionaries are making a
mistake in trying to educate
the Negro and bring him
closer to the white man's
level. The Negro is inferior
in every way to the white
man and the further he is
removed the better off he will
be. OF THE SEVEN MILLION
POPULATION OF
AFRICA. NEARLY SIX
ARE NEGROS."
Dr. Landes concluded his "higher" application to the race problem in Africa by saying: "The only sound solution is in cooperation, a working agreement between the two races, which will be beneficial to both"; but the "good" Sunday school secretary foror to add. "In the opinion of the whites." Eighth grade youngsters know of the ruthless exploitation of Africa and her people by the civilized whites of the world. They recall the days of King Leopold of Belgium. They visualize the ravishing of the African mines. They remember the toiling African blacks, women and men, who even now, for penurious wages and amid conditions, are willing to wealth for people who. Dr. Landes says, believe it is a mistake to educate the Negro; but that it is a virtuous undertaking to use him as a pack-horse until death do us part.
And now comes the suggestion and from the church world to elevate the heel of one million whites of Africa upon the necks of six million blacks, in their own homeland, beneath their own sun, and said the resources which God for them provided. Not satisfied with the problem, Sunday School, did they decide Alliance wishes to accelerate 'it in Africa, where the social reform of the civilized world has not yet become thoroughly acclimated. This is indeed an ambitious program and one compared with which the program of Captain Kidd was a more miniature form of gentlemanly courtesy.
Foreign Unskilled Labor Gains
OF SIGNIFICANCE to Negro labor in America, which is making a determined bid for permanent inclusion in the country's industry, is the fact that during the fiscal year 1925-26 there was a net gain of 10.436 unskilled laborers, who came in as immigrants and were at once absorbed into industry. The gain in unskilled labor resulted from a total immigration of 43.543 of the foreign classes, who entered American ports, while only 33.107 departed for their former homelands. In the case of Canada and Mexico, neither of which is restricted to the quota regulations promulgated for the protec-

POLICE SEARCH FOR MAN NAMED "CHARLEY"
Believed to Have Been the Driver of Auto That Caused Injury to Nine Persons — Cabaret Entertainer, One of Trio in Car, Also Hurt
Police are searching all over Harlem for a man by the name of, "Charley," who is said to be the driver of the speeding automobile that caused nine persons to be injured late last Tuesday night at the intersection of Lenox and Seventh avenues at 137th street.
In the prison ward at Harlem Hospital Lillian Powell, a cabaret entertainer, who gave her address 203 West 144th street, is being treated for injuries received while riding the machine that is said by witnesses to have been travelling at 60 miles an hour down Lenox avenue. Her condition was reported to be improving by physicians of the hospital yesterday. She is charged with felonious assault. Browne 2 West 129th street, is also being held in $5,000 bail on a charge of felonious assault. He too was one of the three persons that were in the automobile at the time of the accident.
The list of injured as a result of the wild ride is as follows: Mrs. Mary Barnhart, 40, white, who is in Harlem Hospital with a fractured collarbone; Charles Harvey, Logan, Ia., and his wife, Clara, guests of Barnhart; Bernice Bennett, 16, and her sister, Iona, 23. 54 West 113th street; Susan Landau, 113th street; Benton Heath, 215 West 129th street; the Powell girl and Browne, who was cut about the head and neck, Barnhart was uninjured.
Heath was shot by a stray bullet. According to police of the West 135th Street Station, the speeding car, containing the trio, was first noticed on Lenox avenue, when it raced at high speed past a fire at 138th street. At 137th street it crashed into a group of women waiting for a street car, injuring the Bennett sisters. Miss Landay and Heath. Bennett, Kerr and Booker of the West 135th Street Station fired two shots at the car when it failed to halt and then gave chase in a passing axicab.
The speeding car dashed out of 137th street into. Seventh avenue and struck the Barnhart automobile, going north on the avenue, full in the side, turning both automobiles over. All three passengers leaped from the first car and disappeared.
Shortly afterward Browne walked into Harlem Hospital and gave himself up. Asking for medical attention, the Powell girl was arrested at her home when an ambulance call was received from the house.
Browne admitted having been in the car, but the Powell girl decided any connection with the wild ride. She was unaware of the plight and will also be arraigned on a felonious assault charge when she recovers.

HAS WIFE'S FATHER SHOT SO SHE CAN BECOME HEIRESS
Alabama Judge Slain by Colored Man at Instigation of Former's Son-in-Law — Automatic Shotgun Used—Both Confess
MOBILE, Ala., Sept. 6—How three months ago he plotted the slaying of Judge Lamar Smith of Wetumpka, his father-in-law, and execution of the plot on last Monday night when the Judge was killed by Hayes Leonard, aged 25, was told to authorities here by Clyde Reese Bachelor, 26 years old, in a written confession, after he had been brought here for sairekeeping.
The Judge and Bachelor are white. Leonard, also brought here, confessed to firing the shot that killed Judge Smith and declared that Bachelor had held a pistol on him, forcing him to slay the jurist. Mrs. Smith was injured by the shot.
Bachelor said that financial difficulties prompted him to plot the slaying so that his wife, Judge Smith's daughter, might inherit her father's estate. "I was money mad, I am ready to meet my Maker," Bachelor said.
While the party was en route from Montgomery here by automobile Bachelor made his first confession, later making another in writing.
Victim Shot Through Window.
In his written confession Bachelor described the slaying of the (Continued on Page 7)
369th Off to Camp in Drizzling Rain
Troops, However, Are Undaunted by Falling Weather
Tramp, tramp, tramp went the boys of the 369th Infantry off to Camp Smith at Peekskill Sunday afternoon.
Through a drizzling rain, the infantrymen marched to the taps of trap drums and pranced to the chords of their famous military band from the armory in West 142d street, near Lenox avenue, to the New York Central station in East 125th street.
Under the command of William A. Taylor, colonel of the regiment, the four battalions began a two weeks' encampment Sunday evening. In the ranks are men regularly employed in almost every station in life.
In order to be prepared to protect the state in case of any serious conflict, these men have gone into strenuous military training. Last year the outfit made the best record of any regiment of the National Guard in the state.
Fortune Teller Faints;
$50 Also, Man Avers
Professing to be a fortune teller,
it is alleged, Mary Williams, Maspeth,
L. I., was held in $500 for
swindling Corbett Bethel, tailor,
100 W. 143rd street, out of $50
when she was arraigned in the
Washington Heights Court Saturday.
According to Bethel, the Williams
girl entered his shop Friday
night and after asking about prices
offered to tell his fortune for nothing.
She tore a handkerchief into
three pieces, he said, and instructed
him to put all his money "in one
place." He placed $50 cash under
the counter and the fortune-teller,
overcome by her occult powers, became faint. She sent Bethel to the
court of the store or a glass of
water, drank it, finished telling
his fortune, he said.
As she left, Bethel, not entirely
accepting her supernatural powers,
felt under the counter. His $50
was gone, and he ran after the
woman. Policeman Graham of the
W 135th station station arrested
her and she offered to return the
$50 to the tailor. Graham testified.
DEATH, THOUGH, LINGERS AT BEDSIDE OF TWO WOMEN ONE OF WHOM HAD BABY IN HER ARMS --- SIX PERISHED IN FATAL HARLEM FIRE
Mrs. Mamie Ramboe Still Clasped Child to Her Breast When Picked Up Out of Subway Excavation Fall Broken by Awning
Death still hovers around the bedside in Harlem Hospital of Mrs. Mamie Ramboe, her infant daughter, Devilina, and Mrs. Mary Allen, who jumped from fifth-story windows at 420 St. Nicholas avenue early last Wednesday morning when fire, seemingly, at least, cut them off from fall-other-avenues of escape and snuffed out the lives of six persons, including two of Mrs. Ramboe's children.
Mrs. Ramboe told a friend who called to see her in the hospital Friday that she had a distinct horror of being burned to death, and this prompted her to make the near-death leap, carrying her infant in her arms. She still clasped little Devilina in her arms when both were picked up in the subway excavation in front of the building. Both suffered fractured skulls and internal injuries. The fall was broken by an awning.
The Dead.
Miller, Cornelius, age forty-eight
Miller, Mrs. Anna, his wife, age
twenty-seven.
Miller, Frank;
Miller, Herbert, age seven; their
children.
Ramboe, Edward, one month old.
Ramboe, Marjorie, age seven.
Their father.
Allen, Mrs. Mary, age 21, broken
leg and internal injuries.
Ramboe, Mrs. Mamie, age 27,
fractured skull and internal
injuries.
Ramboe, Devilina, age two, fractured skull and internal injuries.
Husband and Son Uninjured.
Mrs. Ramboe's husband, Isaac
and their five-year-old son, Isaac
Jr. were rescued by firemen
minutes after Ramboe leaped
with Wilhelm Devilina. Firemen
policemen and citizens in the street
implored her not to jump, but the
flames were so hot behind her that
the poor woman had no alternative
tive, except death in them, and that
she dreaded.
So greedy were the flames for
the lives of the Ramboes, that first
men played a hose on Mr. Rambo
and his son, as they dangled from
the window, until a ladder could be
extended to them.
Unknown Origin.
Held for Running Doctor Down
Police Searching for Helper on Truck in Collision
For running down Dr. Fred Hammond, white, 60, 9 West 121st street, with a truck, Alexander Wright, 26, 321 St. Nicholas avenue, was held in $2,500 ball on charge of felonious assault for a further hearing by Magistrate McKiniry in Night Court Wednesday. According to the police, Wright says that while he was driving east on the Willis avenue bridge, another truck owned by the De Negris Brothers Trucking Company and driven by Charles Ray, white, 34, 601 East 78th street, attempted to pass him. Both chauffeurs were arrested by Policeman Levy, of the Alexander avenue station. The police are also searching for Jesse Cunningham, 27, 473 Lenox avenue, helper on Wright's truck.
Cunningham, it is said, disappeared immediately after the accident. It is thought by the police he is the only other man who can throw light on the whole situation.
Pass Bar Examinations.
Among the 851 law students to pass the-bar examinations held in June were Hubert T. Delany, 219 West 121st street, and Robert R. Penn, 36 West 129th street.
Husband Sambo's husband, Isaac, and five-year-old son, Isaac, Jr., were rescued by firemen a few minutes after Mrs. Rambo leaped with little Devilina. Firemen, policemen and citizens in the street implored her not to jump, but the flames were so hot behind her that the poor woman had no alternative, except death in them, and this she dreaded.
So greedy were the flames for the lives of the Ramboes, that firemen played a hose on Mr. Rambo and his son, as they dangled from the window, until a ladder could be extended to them.
Unknown Origin.
It has not yet been determined how the ladder was started and what caused it to make headway so rapidly. Several men have been taken to the 135th street police station and questioned by detectives who believe that it may have been of incidenary origin. A reporter for The Amsterdam News was told by a man living next door in 422 St. Nicholas avenue that an explosion preceded the fire.
Others have variously held that it started in the basement and the ground floor. Little damage, except by water, was done in the basement. The fire was first discovered by Patrolman Thomas Brosnan of the West 135th street police station, who turned in the alarm and awoke many of the tenants.
William M. Kelley, editor of The
Amsterdam News, on the fourth
floor in No. 418, next door, says
that he was awakened at about
4:45 a. m. by someone yelling
"Fire!"
Leaping out of bed and pulling
on a light, he saw the upper part
of a man pulling himself into his
front window, and telling him at
the same time in what appeared to

Assistant District Attorney Ewald, in refuting the argument of the defendant's counsel for bail, informed the court that he was endeavoring to have several other persons come into the court and make complaints.
Raymond was on an errand for his mother with $2 cents in his hand. It is alleged that Huster came up to him while he was standing on the corner of 125th street and Lenox avenue and asked him if he had any money.
On telling the man that he had the coin, Huster, it is charged, told him that he would make it $2 for him. The boy advanced the coin. Then the lad was instructed to go across the street to the drug store and ask the cashier for the $3. When the druggist expressed amazement at the claim, Raymond went back to find the man, but he had disappeared.
When the boy told his mother of the incident she went immediately to the West 125th Street Police Station. Policeman Ryan in plain clothes accompanied Mrs. Kaaland and her son to the corner of 125th street and Lenox avenue and the child pointed out Huster without any hesitation, the officer said.
The prisoner protested vigorously and a large crowd gathered when Ryan arrested him. The officer said that several white women tried to prevent him from making the arrest.
Huster's criminal record dates back to 1915, the police believe. Since that time the police record shows he has been convicted four times on various larceny charges.
Case Dismissed as Man Drops Dead
A complaintant. Mrs. Martha Nicholas, white, of No. 16 Vernon avenue, Brooklyn, sat on the witness stand Thursday in Gates avenue police court and testified concerning a quarrel in the hallway of her home with Michael Ohlstein, white, a moving picture operator, the defendant. The charge was disorderly conduct.
"My God! My God!" screamed Ohlstein, jumping up as the woman said he had called her vile names. He fell to the floor and was dead. Court attendants worked over him, but an ambulance doctor said it was too late. Mrs. Ohlstein, mother of three, collapsed in the hallway and was taken home in an ambulance.
"Case dismissed," said Magistrate Brown.
Monte Lewis, address unknown, was released on a charge of disorderly conduct made by Louis Turetzkin, a white restaurant owner, of 503 Lenox avenue, in the Washington Heights Court Monday morning. The complainant attempted to prove that Lewis had assaulted him. His own witness testified in the defendant's behalf.
Atrocity
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has received from a person who was in the town of Wytheville, Va., on the day Raymond Bird was murdered by a mob, startling new light on the events preceding the mob murder. The name of the informant is withheld for obvious reasons.
The informant states that the colored boy has been employed for a number of years on the farm of a white man and had worked on the farm together with the white man's daughter. Their working together had caused comment in the neighborhood, it was straig
Finally a baby was born to the white girl. She made an appointment with the colored boy and gave him the baby. He took it to the house of colored friends who are at present caring for the infant.
The mob had no trouble in storming the jail. it is alleged. In fact, the sheriff, knowing the weakness of the jail door, had asked that the colored boy who had been arrested on a charge of "assault" he removed. This request was however, disregarded by the authorities. The white girl declined to accuse the colored boy, it is alleged.
SOUTHERN POLITICAL CORRUPTION SCORED
WASHINGTON. — Referring to the Democratic cry of "Corruption" in states where there have been large expenditures in primary contests, Representative Wood (Republican), Indiana, chairman of the Republican Congressional Campaign, says: "There has been less violation of the law in elections in all the northern and western states in the past twenty years than in a single southern state in a single year." Chairman.Wood is confident that the Republicans will elect in November a working majority of at least 25 in the national House of Representatives.

On a charge of robbery, James Russell, 45, 2155 Fifth avenue, was held without ball for a further hearing by Magistrate Henry Goodman in Harlem Court Friday.
Russell was arrested by Policeman Brown of the E. 123rd street station on complaint of James Shelton, 508 Lenox avenue, Shelton told the police that while he was in an alleged speakeasy at 7 E. 1232nd street.

Weapon Used in Killing of Chester Bagley Several Weeks Ago
The fate of David King, postal employee, for having in his possession the weapon that carried two death bullets into Chester Bagley's body several weeks ago, will be known on an unlucky day, Monday, the 13th.
He pleaded guilty Thursday in Special Sessions.
The sentence for violation of the Sullivan Law ranges from one day to five years. After Alexander Sidney Rosenthal, attorney for King, had recited the circumstances under which his client used the weapon to the judges, the court continued the defendant's bail and deferred the announcement of their decision until Sept. 13.
It is still unknown where King secured the revolver when he found Bagley in his apartment with his wife. He was exonerated by the Grand Jury for the crime. King, it is claimed, has left his wife and begun action against her for an absolute divorce.

Mob Murders Show Increase
Lynchings in Eight Months of 1926 Exceed Entire Year 1925
According to statistics kept by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth avenue, the lynchings in the first, eight months, of 1926 have already exceeded the number for the entire year 1925, there being 20 lynchings to date this year as against 18 for the whole 12 months of 1925.
In addition, whereas no white man was lynched in 1925 there have been two lyncheds already during the current year. The leading states thus far this year are Florida with five lynchings and Mississippi with four.
Responsibility for the increase in lynchings was placed squarely upon the shoulders of the United States Senate by the N. A. A. C. P.
"While there was the hope and the threat that the Dyer Anti-Lynching Elli would be passed."
says an N. A. A. C. P. statement. "lynchings sharply declined. Now that the Senate by its indifference and hostility to this legislation, has again indefinitely postponed any hope of enactment of a Federal anti-lynching law, the lynchers have again become emboldened.
"The present disgraceful increase in mob murder throughout the United States again brings to the front the crying need for Federal action to stamp out this crime. The N. A. A. C. P. will not cease its efforts in this direction until a year shall pass in which no mob murder is recorded."
HIT BY FALLING
BRICK: ASKS $25,000
Struck by a brick that fell 14 stories to the level on which he was working at 26 West 54th street. Benjamin Ambrose, 45, 222 West 137th street, has started suit for $25,000 damages against the M. C. Reynolds Company, Inc. contractors. Ambrose was employed as a carpenter and was on the second floor of a building in course of construction in West 54th street. The brick fractured his leg and he was taken to Bellevue Hospital. Carelessness in the way workmen tossed about the bricks on the 15th floor was declared to be the cause of the accident.
Coming here from Washington to visit her mother, Mrs. Marion Wall, who lived up until last month at 233 W. 130th street, Mrs. Grace Webster found that she had moved without informing her and without leaving any trace of her whereabouts.
Mrs. Marvelon McKinney, landlady of the West 130th street address, could throw no light on the disappearance of Mrs. Wall. She said that all that she knew was that she was gone. Mall addressed to her has been returned to the post office. Efforts are being made to determine if she left a forwarding address there.
The missing woman's daughter, who is stopping with Mrs. McKinney, said that her mother was extremely tall and weighs about 125 pounds. She is of a dark brown complexion.

who has recently returned from
Africa, told of his observations of
the race problem. there.
“In the opinion of the whites,”
he said, “missionaries are making
a mistake in trying to educate the
Negro and: bring him closer to the
white man’s ideal. The Negro is
inferior in every way to the white
man and the further he is, remored
the better off he will be. Of the
seven million population of Africa
nearly six million are Negroes.
“Some people belteve tbat as-
similation of intermarriage will in

white nor black. _I don't think this
will ever come to pass. Sesresa-
tion is another plan offered,
“The only sound solution is in
co-operation, a working agreement
between the two races which will
be beneficial to both.”

Household Lore
To remove perspiration stains from clothes, soak the garments in strong salt water before laundering them.
An old jar rubber tied to the end of the bloom handle makes a good hanger. The rubber won't slip—strings do.
An old straw hat makes a useful basket for clothespins. Sew two tape handles on either side of the brim and the pins can be carried about quite easily.
Do not sprinkle all your linen napkins when preparing, for froiling. Dip every third napkin into clear warm water, place one between two dry napkins, fold and roll together. Napkins dampened in this way are easily froned.
A little soap applied to the hinges of a door will stop it from squeaking.

Bad Color (biliousness)
"OCCASIONALLY I am troubled with spells of constipation," says Mrs. John L. Pence, Broadway, Va. "I always use Theford's Black-Draught when I feel a spell of this kind coming on, for it saves me a bad headache. My color gets sallow at times. I get real yellow. "I have found Black-Draught to be the finest kind of a remedy for this. I take Black-Draught and make a tea out of it, and take it, along in small doses for several days. I have never found anything that served me so well.
"Since I have known about Black-Draught, I have not suffered nearly so much with headache, caused from indigestion. If I find my tongue is coated, and I wake up with a bad taste in my mouth, I know I have been eating insidetruly, and I immediately resort to Black-Draught to straighten me out."

Had Ralph only nerve enough to tell Margaret of this great barrier of which she was perhaps not conscious she could, have corrected this offensive aliment, and he would have been "at peace with the world." But he failed to do so, and when vacation time was over Ralph returned to New York and Margaret to Boston.
It was while frolicking upon the moisty sands of the beach at Atlantic City that Ralph met Margaret. Both were on vacation. Ralph was a handsome young New York lawyer, while Margaret. not only beautiful, was one of Boston's most brilliant young school teachers. Ralph, an athlete, and Margaret, a lover of sports, had something in common. Their acquaintance fanned into a hasty courtship. It made no difference whether upon the beach, strolling leisurely in the moonlight, on the boardwalk, at parties or where not. these ardent lovers were always seen together. So elated over each other were they that they were content to selfishly "let the rest of the world go by."
The drought was so severe in this part of the country this summer, writes L. G. C., that the bees had to get down on their knees to get the honey out of the blossoms!
First 'Party—Things certainly moved swiftly for old Johnson; the doctor was there only once, and that was the end of it!
Their attentiveness was mostly evident at house parties. Here they would cuddle to themselves in some cozy corner or out on the porch while the other guests reveled in merriment, dancing to the strains of irresistible music, or some daring few grouped off telling naughty stories over a slip of some spicy beverage which the flask owner persistently declared was "pre-war stuff."
Second Party—Yes, it's remarkable what progress medical science has made lately.
It's strange the way mother changes her mind about the best place to go for the summer after the girls are married off.
However, as the days passed on there was a decided notice of bewilderment upon Ralph's countenance. He admitted to his roommate at the hotel that without fear of contradiction he really was in love with Margaret, but—— It was simply this. Ralph worried about the pretty miss because of a "common aliment." She was beautiful, possessed a handsome figure, pretty eyes, hair and teeth, a brilliant mind and a charming

City Must Show Cause on Sept. 14 Why House Should Not Be Erected
Charges that the color line is being drawn in Kearney are made in a Chancery suit brought by the R. J. G. Realty Co., Inc., to restrain the town officials from interfering with the construction of a two-family house at 27 Brighton avenue.
It is alleged in the suit that after the company had obtained a permit for the erection of the house and had begun work Councilman Fred A. Hardley, Jr., and a police officer stopped the work. The complaint further alleges that Municipal Superintendent John D. Costles reached the permit.
The company directed its suit against Mayor James W. Harvey, Costies and the Councilman, Vice-Chancellor Church yesterday, on application of Milton J. Finkelstein, counsel for the realty company, directed the town officials to show cause on September 14 why they should not be restrained from interfering with the completion of the work.

The fourth annual outing of the Orange Colored Republican Club proved to be a stormy affair this year. The officers of the organization delivered themselves of some heated oratory against the attitude of the Republican Party in the State of New Jersey wherever the rights of Negro citizens of New Jersey are concerned generally, and in Carteret and Kearney in particular.
Mrs. Mary E. Burrell, who happens to be the only colored citizen who is an executive officer of the Republican Executive Committee in New Jersey, said:
"The time has come when we must take up political arms against our so-called friends in our judgment they are not treating us fairly. I believe that the party must be told that we are not children any more and that if they cannot protect us we shall protect ourselves."
Attorney Oliver Randolph also made a strong and bitter attack upon the attitude of the party.

Run-Down gave out easily
"MY health wasn't any account at all." says Mrs. H. L. Cayton, of Washington, N.C. I would start to do my housework and I would give out before I had done anything at all. I did not have any strength, and if I did the least thing I could not finish. I was rundown sure enough. "Several of my friends had taken Cardui and they said to me, 'Why don't you try it?' I knew I needed something to build up my general health and to increase my strength.
"Finally one day when I was recovering from a spell of sickness, I decided to try Cardui. I got a bottle and began to take it. I could notice that I was improving as my appetite got better and I did not give out nearly so quick. I took several bottles and I felt lots better.
"Two years ago I decided to take it again. It built me up and made me feel like a different person."
Cardui should help you, too.

The fact remains that close observations from New Jersey and New York westward through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois reveal hundreds of Mexicans working principally on the railroads, on highway construction projects, and in the steel mills. The foreign worker, good man though he is, when coupled with antipathies which a percentage of American employers have for Negro workers, has become a distrust of Negro laborers, skilled and unskilled. The greatest obstacles which the Negro laborer finds today are Inclusion, Permanency and Advancement, all of which are subject to the ill or good-will of the employing classes, many of whom have the "don't care" spirit when the colored man knocks at the gate of employment.
The protective tariff is all right, and the restrictive immigration policy has been acting as a deterrent, when during the past five years, has come into

greater opportunities and better pay. Vigilance, though, is essential to insure the consumption of the Negro worker's hopes, frequently contested, as they are, by the labor backwash of Europe. America does not need to be unduly selfish. It is a nation of democracy, and democracy is charitable and kind yet. At America, the Negro worker has his sons and daughters, white and black, from any menace to her economic prosperity, one of the chief contributors to which is full protection to the American worker. Employers must stir their pride and render unto the American worker the things that are, his, giving work opportunities and advancement to his own, regardless of blood heritage. Black men and women should be cared for in employment, even before the Americanization of the foreigner is accomplished, and with the Negro has no need, being an American himself, who has absorbed Americanization both before and since the Civil War. Surely Charity and Love, even in Labor, should first be practiced at home.
Alabama Judge Slain in Home
(Continued from Page 1)
Judge, who at the time was lying on his bed reading a paper, Bachelor denied that he close beoseed armband holding a pistol on him, but said he was standing near the window through which the shot was fired.
After the shooting Bachelor said that he and Leonard ran to his car, which was parked about two blocks away, and drove to Bachelor's plantation, about 10 miles from Wetumpka.
"I went home and went to bed," Bachelor said. "When I got there my wife and baby were there."
The gun with which the Judge was shot enclosed an automatic shotgun loaded with buckshot, was owned by Bachelor.
Explaining his motive, Bachelor said:
"In order to get in better financial condition I decided to kill Judge Smith. I knew that in the event of his death my wife, Judge Smith's daughter, would inherit her share of the property and for this reason I plotted Judge Smith's death.
Plotted Killing with Leonard.
Bachelor then described how three months ago he had spoken to Leonard, a tenant on his plantation, about killing the Judge, but declared he "did not promise him anything for the killing."
Continuing. Bachelor said:
"On several occasions between the date of the killing and the time I first talked with the Negro we talked about the matter. On two occasions within the past three months, the Negro and I went to Judge Smith's home to kill him, but my nerve failed me. But on last Monday night my nerve did not fall and I went there with the Negro to kill him. The Negro did the shooting."
The written confession of Leonard corroborated all points of Bachelor's confession except as to where Bachelor stood when the shot was fired.
A special session of the Elmore County Grand Jury has been ordered to convene here on Friday to investigate the slaying. It is expected that the trials of Bachelor and Leonard will be adjudicated by the Grand Jury has made its investigation and returned indictments.
"You can't understand it," Bachelor groaned in his cell. "you don't know how this thing is cutting into my very soul."
Sheriff Leon Schwarz, who accompanied Bachelor with a large posse of officers to Montgomery, said on his return to Mobile:
"He talked to me freely. Bachelor said he had always liked money, never had as much as he wanted to spend, and did not know how to take care of it. He said he owe money at the present rate, and he wouldn't him out, and that was responsible in a way for putting the idea in his mind to get a large amount of money easily."
Bachelor told Sheriff Schwarz he had lived very happily with his wife and never had any trouble of any sort with Judge Smith.

MAN BLOWN THROUGH
WINDOW BY EXPLOSION
JONESBORO. Ark. Sept. 6—An ammonia tank in the ice plant at the Hotel Nobel here exploded Wednesday morning when it became overcharged. There was a terrific explosion, and Nick Turnage, in charge of the plant, narrowly escaped possible death. As it was, the explosion caused a significant impact and catapulted through the basement window, partly due to the explosion and partly to his own efforts to get out of danger.

Acting on information received
from an undertaker in Brooklyn,
relative to alleged discrimination
az the Mount Olivet Cemetery,
Maspeth, Long Island, 2. reporter
of the New York Amsterdam News
made an investigation.
‘Our reporter, who has run across
racial discrimination in hotels.
theatres, bathhouses, and a num-
ber of other socalled public
places, wended his weary way to
Maepeth. where he was greeted
cordially and the party in charge
of the office told him the price of
a‘ grave, but-said nothing about
color.
‘A day later our zeporter called
the cemetery on the phone, and the
person in charge in a cheery.
femanine voice asked: “for white
or colored?” The reporter inquired
45 to what differeance it made, and
the young ladr stated that the only
difference was tbat graves were
held-for colored people ina differ-
ent section and at a cheaper price.
‘Upon further questioning the
young woman would not state upon
hose authority she made this
statement, but referred the reporter
to a Mr. Chamberlain.
Biforts were made to get in totch
with Mr. Chamberlain Dut they
availed nothing.
In going over the matter with
soveral colored undertakers they
admitted that there were grounds
for believing that the people in
charge of the cemetery were dis.
eriminating now, but heretofore it
had not been the policy of these
people to so do.

Industrial Workers' Association Started
GARY. Ind.—Under the direction of H. M. Fletcher, organizer and president, the Industrial Workmen's Association, an organization created to unite all the colored workmen of Gary," is said to be flourishing. The Industrial Workmen's Association is comprised principally of Gary steel workers, skilled and unskilled, who are engaged in practically every occupation in the Gary steel plants.
The Association is modelled upon the co-operative plan of representation and votes by the companies and workers, and is presumed to specialize in treating with wages and other conditions of labor in the Gary district, which has herefore been a fertile workplace for allen and Mexican laborers who have not infrequently displaced American workmen, white and colored.
The interlocking plan upon which the Gary organization is based has enjoyed marked success, particularly where colored workers were engaged in plants, fields and mines. Ultimately living conditions are to be treated with and every phase of work contentment is to be made the subject of "round table" conferences.
Paris Beginning to Frown on Charleston
Paris has started an offensive against the Charleston, according to a copyright dispatch to the New York World. The press declares the prestige of France as leader of the world in elegance and taste in art is at stake. "Foreigners come with their strange innovations, timidly waiting to see if we give them the stamp of our approval, which we are beginning to do without discontent," says one writer. Others bitterly bewaid that Berlin excommunicated the Charleston before Paris—"a dishonor for Paris."
The Journal describes a man and woman dancing the Charleston as "epileptic monkeys." Maurice de Wolfe relates how he first saw the Charleston danced in an African forest by a tribe of cannibals "to sounds of the tomtom, skin against skin, with the same conviction and undoubtedly the same pleasure as out society people are performing it in the smartest casinos in Europe."
"The future of our arts, industries and luxury may depend on our moving in time before being submerged by Negro and bamboula art," says the newspaper.

be a calm tone of voice under the circumstances, that the house was on fire and that he would have to get out. Mr. Kelley says that he took the man for a fireman on a ladder until he asked permission to come through his apartment.
Permission was given and the man clamored into the room. clad only in his underwear and was let out of the front door, through which, and the apartment next door, the flames could be seen. What floor the man lived on and who he was, has not been ascertained. There are no fire-escapes on the front of the building, so he had evidently crossed over from the burning building by clinging to the window ledge.
Subway Construction Impeded Fire fighters.
It is probable that no lives would have been lost had it not been for construction work being done on the new subway. Hook and Ladder Companies found it impossible to get extension ladders above the third floor and the water pressure was at first so low that the stream fell short of the building. Hose were later laid from Eighth avenue. Three alarms were turned in.
To prevent a recurrence of such a disaster, John H. Delaney, chairman of the Board of Transportation, has appointed a committee of engineers to take steps to remedy the condition. One of these is to prohibit the opening of the street for more than one city. block at a time, including two adjacent cross streets.
All Bodies Identified. It was not until Thursday that all of the bodies were identified, so badly were they burned. The bodies of the Allens were identified by Mrs. Rebecca Tarleton of 307 West 143rd street. The Amsterdam News published names of the victims as fast as they were made known on the large bulletin board in front of the office and was read by thousand all day Wednesday and Thursday.
Dorothy Miller, another daughter of the dead couple, was rescued by Bruce Lawrence, of 2735 Eighth avenue, who also rescued another woman and her child.
William Lopez, his daughter, Veronica, and her husband, John Lawrence, and the latter's two children, Veronica, age three, and Theodore, age ten, were asleep on the third floor when they were awakened by the crackling flames. Lopez huddled his family before him and groped through smoke-filled rooms to safety.
The fire completely gutted out No. 418 and did considerable damage to adjoining apartments of 413 and 422. There are thirty apartments in the three buildings, not including those in the basement.

Speeded to Save Corns
Philip Tohis, white, of 8742 368th street, Brooklyn, was arraigned before Magistrate Conway in Long Island City Court Wednesday on a charge of speeding. Asked why he broke the law, he said: "My corn were hurting." "What have your corn to do with the charge?" asked the court. "Whenever it is going to rain my corn hurt and I wanted to beat the rain home," replied Tohis. "Did it rain?" asked Magis-
"Did it rain?" asked the Magistrate.
"It did next day."
"You got home in time then, which showed that you were a poor weather prophet, but guilty of speeding."

avoy Management Did Not Know Judge Was Related to Contestant
Indignant Writer Says It Was Something Contemptible and Would Have Us Tell the World All About the Handing Out of That Second Prize
Before we delve into this thing which seemed to have created quite a furore, we want to say that the affair staged by the management of the Savoy Ballroom was staged in all honesty by that management and they have shown, although the least shadow of doubt, that they have never had any part in trying to mislead a public which, justly, has given them wonderful support.
I would have them do and one can ask no more.
Do you think, dear and gentle reader, that it an announcement was made from the platform stating that the brother or some close relative of one of the contestants would appear and be judged by those in the audience, or have and business partner of said relative, the gathering would have welcomed this state of affairs?
Yen, you are right. We would
And they are going to keep up that support, too, for the Savoy management spends liberally in entertainment, and tries its utmost to give three and four times for the small price of admission changed. A letter from Mrs. Birdie Johnson of 157 West 192th street came to us last week, too late for comment, but this week—ah!
Mrs. Johnson claims that one Mr. Jackson, publisher of a paper or magazine called the Tattatter, who acted as one of the judges, is a brother of the contestant receiving the second prize. Today we are reproducing the picture of the young women taking part in the contest, so that all hands can judge for themselves whether the people filling protest after protest are justified.
Personally we feel that they are, for the moment it is found that a judge in an affair of this kind is related to a contestant, the affair becomes all wet and it is time to get upon the housets, and cry into high heaven. Mrs. Johnson not only files the claim that the Tattler man is related to the winner of the second prize, but also states that another gentleman connected with the same paper, or magazine, ALSO ACTED AS A JUDGE.
We pass no decision in the matter. If what is claimed is true, then the Savoy management has taken a stand that will endear them to the general public. It is their contention that the little lady with the curls, who was placed third, should be moved up to second place. As we stated before, we have no judgment to pass in the matter and simply ask the prince and see if Mrs. Johnson's claim would stand up before an unbiased jury. Personally we think the lady's claim would stand up, but we must not pass judgment in the matter. We leave that for the public.
Then, too, our columns are wide opera for any explanation any judge in the affair might feel like submitting BEFORE WE PRINT MRS. JOHNSON'S VITRIOLIC LETTER WHICH RINGS WITH TRUTH. Oh, this missive is hot, all right, all right. When the management of the Savoy found that something went wrong somewhere, if we are to believe the wails which have gone up since the affair, they voluntarily suggested that if the gentleman in question failed to come forth with an explanation of why he did not rise and suggest that it would be hard for him to appear as judge in something wherein a relative appeared, they would gladly do that which they feel the pub

Do you think, dear and gentle reader, that if an announcement was made from the platform stating that the brother or some close relative of one of the contestants would appear and be judged by those included said brother, relative and business partner of said relative, the gathering would have welcomed 'this state of affairs?' Yep, you are right. We would have done the same. Now, if it is true, what is the next move? The Sun says ready, open and above, bound to the matter, what about the, Tuttlar? Of course, we have no patience with the wag who suggested that the winner of the first award had no competition. Let the camera spread white we hold our breath.
Artistic Touches Reminds One of Certain Famous European Resorts
The poet who said that a thing of beauty is a joy forever must have had in mind the New Renaissance Casino, for Mr. Roach's Casino has reached the highest beauty obtainable in the remarkable short time since the announcement of the contemplated change. The announcement in large letters meets the eye of the passer-by on Seventh avenue and on 13Sth street. We entered the Casino on Saturday, the opening night, and remembered the trick used as a tool to guard against optical delusions. We closed our eyes as we entered the Casino and suddenly opened them as we neared the dancing floor. Whew. Such beauty we have never seen anywhere outside of the Trilani, at Milan in Italy, the Casino Francaise in Paris, or the Mayocano in Madrid, Spain.
The ceiling is one long vista of softening lights, with four lights—one at each corner—which give the appearance at once of a huge sun flower. The edges of the petals are garnished by six soft marine blue lights at each scallop, and the medallion which hangs from it leaves the impression of a large morning glory.
The lighting scheme is elusive and all mystic: it leaves the impression of sustained romance. The lights change and give one the impression of an ever changing panorama of changing colors and shifting tints. This ceiling presents one of the most magnificently beautiful scenes to be Harlem well laid out; just enough lounging space to permit of the maximum space for dancing. The lounging space downstairs is made up of logs made in Oriental pattern, paneled and bordered in a brown and blue.
The boxes up stairs have been arranged so as to seat couples and parties, and the walls have been re-decorated to represent the starry way. The Casino directly over the stage is a beautiful Turkish brown valence of silk, and the sides of the upper tiers are arched into a never ending alcove. At each side of the Casino over the stage is placed back deep into the walls an antique looking light, which reminds one of the tower of an ancient cathedral.
The mob turned out in abundance, too, as though to lend some basis of justification to the expense which Mr. Roach had undertaken for its benefit. The crowd surged and swayed; the jazz bands screeched and thumped; the lights and scenery dominated the whole interior of the Casino and left one powerless to resist its easy. More than 100 men manled each room and got admission to half youngsters delighted in the good music and romantic scenery and let themselves go with utter abandon, while the starry-lighted Casino added one more triumph to the business achievement of the Man—Roach, and one first class place for the entertainment of the youth of Harlem.

of the stars appearing in this picture are: Vera Reynolds, H. B. Warner, Raymond Hatton, Rockcliffe Fellows, Jack Mullhall, and Virginia Pearson.
Adapted from the play by Max Marcin. "Silence" is a photoplay of a "thousand thrills the kind or picture that holds one spellbound from start to finish. It is easily one of the most gripping and interesting pictures seen in many days. "The Greater Glory." with Conway Tearle and Anna N. Nilsson will be the attraction over the weekend, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, September 11, 12, and 13, at the Renaissance Theatre.
Written for the screen by June Mathias from Edith O'Shaughnessy's novel "Vlennese Medley," this picture is one that takes you through the times when the red hand of destiny was sweeping over nations and a million hungry mouths were crying for bread. The never-tiring love tangle is sweetly interwoven in this heart picture that will please the most critical movie lover.
With the return of Manager Charity, the fall season of bookings at this theatre is now being completed and the public is promised for the coming season the very best in the picture world to be seen at their favorite theatre.
New Picturization of "The Sea Wolf" Marvel
Coming to the New Douglas Theatre Saturday
Said by leading critics of the country to be one of the most dramatic sea stories ever to reach the screen, Jack London's powerful picture, "The Sea Wolf," will be the feature attraction at the Douglas Theatre next Saturday. This red-blooded adventure novel which made Jack London famous was filmed by Ralph W. Ince with highly successful results, and its leading characters are portrayed by Mr. Ince. Claire Adams. Theodore Von Eltz, Snitz Edwards and Mitchell Lewis.
According to manager, "The Sea Wolf" is packed with spectacular and highly thrilling scenes, all of which are presented on the screen just as Mr. London incorporated them in his world-famed story. They have been filmed with a vividness that the printed page seldom, if ever, can hope to attain.
The photoplay has been splendidly adapted by J. Grubb Alexander, and the photography by J. O. Taylor is extremely artistic and satisfying. This is notably true as regards the incidents attending the collision and the burning of the schooner. The mutiny in which the "Wolf" fights his murderous crew single handed is said to be tremendously thrilling.

Artists at Columbia Theatre Credit Whites for Encouragement
Butterbeans and Susie Say Cabarets Produce Talent Now Before the Public
"Up to about twenty-five years ago colored entertainers had few opportunities to step into the foreground of the higher class amusements in this country," is the opinion expressed by Butterbeans and Susie, that stellar colored team, which is one of the big hits of Jimmie Cooper and his Black and
White Revue, which will appear for a week beginning Monday at the Columbia Theatre. "Like in everything else, it required work, real hard work, to make the white folks understand that there is great natural talent in our race.
"In the early days of this century there were but a limited number of our race who ever gained the opportunity to do Dean, Hodges and Launchere, Cole and Johnson, Avery and Hart, and the immortal team of William and Walker were perhaps the only ones, whose reputation finally stretched across the ocean. But gradually we met with a greater appreciation and today colored attractions and individual acts are to be found in great profusion.
"The reason for" this is very easily explained. The colored race has a keen understanding for a sort of humor that appeals to white folk, they have a way of rendering their ditties in a style all their own and as for dancing, well, credit will not be denied us for having originated the most popular gyrations in this particular direction.
"It fell to the colored race to create the Todeio, the Barbary, the Texas Tommy, the Charleston and the many other terpsilchorean novelties, which have become an international craze that is same as the line of melodies. The first attempts were in Southern strains. They gradually took on a more modern attire till finally they found their way into Jazzland. Were it not for the encouragement received from the white audiences, the talent of the Negro might

never have come to the surface in all its versatile qualities.
"It's our race, that first gave the gay New Yorker a taste of the Night Clubs," remarked the leader of the Six Crackersjacks, that whirlwind dancing sextet, which is one of the big features of Jimmie Cooper's Black-and White Revue at the Columbia.
"First these clubs were catering only to members of the colored race, but gradually it enjoyed the parronage of the best society of the metropolis. It is in these clubs that one may discover the greatest talent of our race. Sometimes an unknown chap or a clever little girl of darker hue enters these circles, display their artistic inclination before an enthusiastic crowd of rounders and win their way into popularity right at their very first appearance.
"There are scores of colored attractions on the road who reached out to these. Night Clubs for the principal entertainers. As fast as these rendezvous are deprived of their star talent, others take their places and so there is a constant stream of newcomers and no one really knows where they all come from. But they come and they have merit and so it may be claimed, that there is an unlimited array of genius to be found among the people of our race."

Savoy Launches Spectacular Feature Next Wednesday Evening
Grand Fall Opening Includes Abundance of Fun and Merriment
Next Wednesday night, Sept. 15, the Savoy Bulldoorm commences its season with the grand fall opening. Interest is running high in this super spectacle which has been advertised extensively as the supreme event of the popular ballroom since its inception. Although only six months old, the Savoy will be redecorated and every nook and corner of the place will shine with brilliance and newness besides containing a number of new innovations which promise to increase the wonderment, and joy of its many thousands of followers.
Conservative estimate places the cost of this tremendous event at $10,000. Every conceivable form of entertainment will be presented, in addition to the giving away of a 1927 Star roadster to one of the patrons attending that night. Beginning with the grand fall opening, the management will announce its program of features, which will be entirely artfully original and mature to give every single visitor a round of pleasure each night eclipsing any other place anywhere in the entire world.
In continuation of its generous policy, the management will maintain the same standard of moderate admission prices throughout this season. That is one of the beauties of this show place of Harlem. Though possessing an innate sense of rare magnificence, the staff of the orchestra, an empire of two orchestras that rank among the country's best, and, in short, everything that would make the average place charge exorbitant prices, this nationally known
institution has provided and will continue to provide the same wonderful brand of amusement as heretofore at a cost that is extremely small, thus opening the road to happiness to the multitudes, a feat deserving of no end of praise.
Tickets are on sale now at the Savoy for the grand fall opening. They were placed on sale in advance because the demand was unusually heavy and persons wise enough are guaranteed admittance through the purchase of the ticket now. While the Savoy will accommodate hundreds of people it does not intend to allow too much overcrowding at night.
The doors will open promptly at 8:30 and the dancing will continue well into the night. It will take hours to present the many stars and features on tap and all Harlem is looking forward to this event, which marks another milestone on the way of progress of the Savoy, truly the world's finest hallroom.
'You Never Know Women' Is Certainly the Truth
And You Can Readily Verify This by Going to the Lincoln Theatre
To the casual reader, "You Never Know Women" might sound alik to a comedy title. Said reader gets one demerrit. "You Never Know Women" is the absorbing story Paramount has given Florence Vidor as her first starring vehicle. It comes to the Lincoln Theatre on Thursday for the latter half of the week.
Here are all the things movie-goers might want to know:
Is it amusing and entertaining? Decidably—Yes!
Is Miss Vidor's performance as good as the one she contributed in "The Grand Duchess and the Walter?" Again—Yes!
The supporting cast—is it adequate? Lowell Sherman, Clive Brook, El Brendel, Roy Stewart and Joe Bomono all appear to advantage.
What of the author and director? Three teachers for Ernest Vadja, and "tiger" for Director William Wellman.
The plot? Leaves nothing to be desired. Briefly—
Banquet to National Champion and Big Match Between New York and New Jersey on Calendar of Adherents of Popular Game
With the close of the local outdoor tennis season not far distant, the tennis fans are looking forward to two distinctive features as a fitting climax to one of the most successful seasons the game has enjoyed in New York City in many years.
The first of these will take place on Saturday night. Sept. 25. when a grand testimonial banquet will be given in honor of Eyre R. Saitch, who recently won the National Tennis Championship at St. Louis, Mo.
This banquet is being planned as a fitting tribute to the wonderful achievement of Saitch; and a community interest in this meritorious endeavor by this youngster should be manifested by those of us in New York who are appreciative of any outstanding achievement of a member of our race.
Realizing that this spirit is evident, the committee is going ahead with its plans to make the banquet a community event, rather than one open only to tennis players and fans.
Saitch is a product of New York and has been playing the game only nine years, and as the winner of the National Championship his feat stands out as one of the most noteworthy achievements of individual endeavor during the year.
LINCOLN GIANTS DEFEAT BRONX
Despite the inclementity of the weather, the Lincoln Giants man-
The National Championships bring together in annual contest the host tennis players the country can produce from every state in the Union, and to be the survivor in a contest of over one hundred other players, representing all the various elements in the game, you must be a real tennis player. This is the man that New York is going to honor.
The banquet will be held at St. Luke's Dining Room on West 120th street, with a seating capacity of more than 100 and a matchless cuisine. It is hoped that the banquet hall will be crowded to capacity.
The banquet committee includes A. E. MacDowell, G. Norman, Dr. F. Reid, L. E. Spooner, Dr. T. E. Hansen and A. E. Francis, chairman.
The second event will be a match on Sunday, Sept. 26, between teams representing the New Jersey and New York Tennis Associations, in the first contest for the Cockburn trophy.
This trophy is the most valuable one put up for competition among tennis players of our race, and was donated to the N. Y. Tennis Association as a perpetual trophy for annual competition between tennis associations of New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania by Capt. Joshua Cockburn of New York City, Capt. Cockburn is a prominent member of our community, and a race lover, and by the donation of this trophy has made it possible to develop not only tennis, but a better inter-state feeling among tennis players of the three States. The plans of the contests include the holding of the games in alternate territory each year, thereby giving the fans in each state a chance to see the best players of the other two states in competition every third year in their home state.
Eleven matches shall comprise the contest, as follows: 4 men's singles, 2 ladies' singles, 2 men's doubles, 1 mixed doubles, 1 ladies' doubles and 1 junior singles.
The state of Pennsylvania can not be included in the contest this year as they are at present without a state association as required by the articles governing the contest. It is hoped that by next year they will have formed an association. It this is done, as it should be, it will benefit the players and fans of the Keystone State, and the contest for the Cockburn trophy will take its place as one of the annual tennis classics among our race in America, and one that could be emulated profitably by any trio of states in other parts of the country.
This generous gift of Capt. Cockburn is one of the concrete evidences of interest that is being manifested by the men and women of our community in the game, which has made the season so successful. This interest was made possible by the untiring efforts of Dr. T. E. Hansen, President of the N. Y. Tennis Association, and his cabinet. Other contributors to the beau-

LINCOLN GIANTS DEFEAT BRONX
LINCOLN GIANTS DEFEAT BRONX
Despite the inclementy of the weather, the Lincoln Giants managed to play one game of their scheduled series with the Bronx Giants at Protective Oval Labor Day. With Chambers in excellent form and the entire Lincoln Giants' lineup hitting better than usual, they succeeded in defeating their white opponents by a score of 5-1. A wild pitch by Chambers in the ninth inning allowed the visitors to score their lone rally.
What old-timers say is the longest home run ever hit at this park was made by Charlie Mason in the first inning. He hit the ball so hard it cleared the top of the trees in right center-field. The other feature of the game was Chambers' pitching. He struck out nine men and allowed five scattered hits.
Although the weatherman kept the Lincoln's idle all day Sunday, the rest is expected to help them when they meet Hilldale in the final series with this team next Sunday, September 12.
The score of Labor Day's game was as follows:

The Dempsey-Wills Political Complex
By MONROE MASON
COLORPHOBIA is in control of heavyweight boxing in New York State. Secret political influences have caused this unhealthy state of affairs.
Supporters of Al. Smith's presidential aspirations have continually blocked the staging of a Dempsey-Wills bout. By these secret methods nimble-minded Caucasian supremocrats have kept Al. Smith's presidential boom on an even keel, unmindful of McAdoo's "boomers" and "undersea destroyers."

son the president, Keeping Dempsey and Wills from boxing in New York State through secret political channels enhanced Al's chances in so far as the Democratic South is concerned.
Wills Key to Nation's Presidency
"Jimmy" Walker is father of New York State's boxing law. Naturally, when he was chosen as emissary to assure the southernners that as long as Al. is Governor a Dempsey-Wills battle would power he fought in the Empire State a trump card was exposed.
Governor Smith has had a colorblind complex since his days of "kid-dom" on the streets of New York. He sold papers in the vicinity of historic Brooklyn Bridge. When colored boys of Thompson and Bleecker streets would go over to Park Row to buy their papers the kids of the "Bridge Gang" mauled them right and left. Smith was then a leader of the "newsies," as he is today an outstanding figure of the Democratic Party. The boys of Thompson and Bleecker streets would retaliate once in a while by drubbing the "Bridge Gang" which they never soon forgot. All of this is history.
AI's future political career was carved on the strength of the incessant battles fought by Park Row between the white and colored "newsies" for kid supremacy. Smith carried the memories of these hectic days to the Executive Mansion in Albany. When he became a power in Tammany Hall he hobnobbed with a few colored Democratic leaders, among them being "Chief" Lee, the late James D. Carr, the late J. Frank Wheaton and Ferdinand Q. Morton, now a Civil Service Commissioner of New York City and Leader of the Tammany Colored Democracy.
During those days he was always affable to the colored leaders. Politics makes strange oedifellows. Affability never lapsed on the part of Smith toward these colored leaders until his supporters injected the presidential bee in his bonnet. New York went wild over the idea. The only obstacle in the way was the "Bourbon" South. How to overcome that was a puzzle.
The tryout of AI's presidential aspirations was staged at New York City during the last Democratic Convention. Tammany waged one of the most historic political battles to nominate Smith the nation has ever seen. It was unsuccessful. The South ruled, but Smith remained a dangerous candidate to the end as he is today.
The Dempsey-Wills complex has always been a secret political issue in New York State. Smith's supporters never used it seriously until AI dictated the nomination and election of "Jimmy" Walker as Mayor of New York City. The secret tactics of Smith's strategy board were deliberate.
Governor Smith has had a colorphobia complex since his days of "kid-dom" on the streets of New York. He sold papers in the vicinity of historic Brooklyn Bridge.

Southern Democrats May Support Smith
Southern political leaders had to be appeased. Mayor Walker went ostensibly to Florida for a rest, but he suddenly bobbed up in Georgia, the hotbed of Bourbon Democracy, and made many "blazing" speeches in behalf of Smith, urging ultimate unification of the northern and southern democracy.
Behind the scenes Walker assured incredulous southerners that Smith believed in Caucasian supremacy and that another mixed championship heavyweight boxing match would never be held in America as long as there was any danger of the white man being defeated.
With this assurance, Smith's chances of securing the nomination brightened. The longer Dempsey can keep from fighting Willis with Smith's presidential aspirations hanging in balance, there are hopes of the colorphobia complex keeping him a dangerous contender.

THE TIGER IS SO FULL OF FUN, EH?
It ought to be a thing of pride to Pennsylvania colored folk that the cleanest and most incorruptible member of their Boxing Commission for the last three years has been a Negro—Charles Fred. White. So far as our observation went, he was the only member of the State Commission who had the nerve to tell the Governor and the public that it is a disgrace to Pennsylvania for their state to accept the rotten bout between Dempsey the Dodger and Tunney the "set-up" or possible "fence," after New York had turned it down. We do not mean that Tunney has arranged to lie down to Dempsey, but we do mean that, as compared with Wills, as a fighter, he amounts to a mere set-up—intended so or not. Because the only colored member of the Commission had the courage to stand for cleanness and honor, Governor Pinchot dismissed him at the request of the evident corruptionists. That is clear to anybody who has followed the matter.
This ought to be an ASSET to Chas. Fred. White for the rest of his life; that, contrary to the usual opinion about colored politicians and political job-holders, he was not to be bought or bullied, and that he let himself be pushed out of a $7,000.00 a year job rather than betray either his race or the general sporting public.
Thank God for him! May his tribe increase.
THE TIGER IS SO ANOTHER FOR FULLOFFUN,EH? CANADA LEE
Out there in Long Island, where the roads become inundated at the slightest rainfall and where, we are told, can be found Chicago Defender Bill, they fell for the story of Tiger Flowers, swimming the English Channel in November. Of course you would expect they'd fall for this in Jamalca, so much so they went to the trouble of running a full page "phys" of the Tiger. Then Walk Miller added to the fun by announcing that he would bet twenty-five thousand dollars that his Tiger can swim the channel.
If this were the early part of April and Tiger and his manager were announcing the swim for mid-July, there would be something in the tale, but when you consider that the Tiger during the cool months seeks warmer climes, to the extent of leaving town the same night after engaging in a hot fight, you can readily see just how the Georgia boy would react to the English Channel during the cool days of November.
Aided and audited by the said which is still due us from the new Jamaica publisher, we are willing to lay the wager of twenty-five thousand dollars that Deacon Theodore Flowers will not follow in the footsteps of Gertrude Ederle this coming November.

Wills "may" fight, but not in the United States. That is the phase upon which his supporters have centered their hopes.
Will the colored electorate fall for that? Think of it! The G. P. O. isn't being considered at all in this equation.
Civil Rights, Prohibition and War Debts
There shouldn't be any mistake that the presidency doesn't fit into the Dempsey-Wills complex.
In many states Prohibition will be a leading issue. Colored voters, knowing the hypocrisy of proponents and opponents alike on this burning question, aren't taking any chances of endangering their already acquired civil rights in America by supporting unfriendly leaders of either party.
War debts are problems for the international bankers to solve, not the voters.
The Administration's economy, tariff and taxation programs will be side shows in comparison to the Prohibition issue, which is one of the nation's greatest questions.

They want the protective tariff to aid them In the same manner as it does the industrial East. How to circumvent this problem will take master minds of both the land and Republicans in Congress to overcome.
Dumbfats set with all of these serious questions confronting the nation, one black and one white boxing gladiator stand in the political shadow of probable choice upon whom the mantle of the presidency may fall.
may again, the State of Louisiana has produced two outstanding black men, victims of northern political insincerity and damnable southern bourbonism. Lest we forget, their names are Walter Cohen and HARRY WILLS.

"SIL" JACKSON LOSES TO GROVE
Izzy Grove, 125-pounder, representing the Clark House, continued his victorious march when he defeated Sil Jackson of the Salem-Crescent A. C. in one of the bouts that featured the amateur boxing show at the Rockaway Beach Arena last Friday night. Grove won all the way, his right uppercut scoring often in the first two frames. He used his left repeatedly in the third round and crossed with his right often enough to keep Jackson on the move. Jackson was willing, however, and tried to retaliate, but with little success. Another member of the Grove family, Charley, also triumphed, defeating Andy Gump Mason in a 125-pound mill.

While it is true we did not predict Sugas' defeat in the manner that would come to us rise up and resume the "I Told You So" attitude, the fact remains that readies, and they tell me there are quite a few of the Amsterdam News can thank their stars for keeping their change tightly clutched in their jeans.
Fact is, Sugas and his manager knew the awful time Chick was in for as he finds it extremely hard to make the weight. Fighting at 124 pounds, the bad has been giving away weight when coming in at that figure.
No wonder they set up such an awful bow when Bushy, Graham weighed in a quarter pound over the 118, and Bushy went out and the extra poundage off. Sugas lost, no doubt about that, and we might as well kick in and say that the bushy boy was too much for him of the weight. Any attempt at an allied be out of place.

The Custom Hatter
Largest Retailer of STETSON HATS
PLANNING a trip across the continent and back on a motorcycle is by no means an easy matter. It requires a lot of courage, self-dependence, money, and time. I find the task all the more difficult and lonesome. I find no one to study road maps while en route, as is often done on
seemed to have filled me with a new enthusiasm for future thrills, and now my journey's experience is over I still crave for more thrills, and would certainly try the trip over again, making a better average from the experience gained.
I left New York City on Tuesday morning, August 12. riding solo on my old 1920 Indian Scout for California. In my saddlebag across my rear mudguard were accessories of all descriptions for any emergency which often arises on such long trips. My first day's journey brought me about fifty miles off Buffalo. That night I slept in a tourist camp, where all the occupants were white except myself. I was treated with greatest of courtesy.
Rising at 5 o'clock in the morning with the others, I dressed myself, had a cup of hot water and made my departure without any breakfast.
An individual must be careful with his diet while traveling in order to keep physically fit. The morning was fair and cool, my Scout was hitting perfectly, and my ambition was to keep a constant glide through the clear concrete highway. My next stop was at Niagara Falls. There I rested for a few moments, thinking of the beautiful works of nature, and then proceeded to Canada. The same day I left Canada for Detroit, and the Great Lakes were the next interesting sight on that trip. Their vastness appeared to me as an inland ocean.
On I went through the most beautiful scenery that I had ever beheld. I stopped that night in Detroit and was the visiting guest of Miss Marion Moore, who was expecting my arrival there. After inspecting the great Ford automobile factory and other places of interest, I made it my business to visit the colored section and paid special attention to their progress. Next I saw the excellent residence of our race operating street cars.
Leaving there, my next stop was Chicago, but arriving there late in the evening. I hardly had time to do much visiting. However, after a good night's rest I was much relieved and said to me the hundred miles from Chicago I experienced my first real thrill—and spill. My cup blew off and just as I was slowing up to turn around, bang! an automobile ran right up into me and sent me flying one way and my machine almost on top of me. The car stopped and the occupants fortunately got out of the way. So I touched them. Fortunately, I only received a slight bruise on the leg and bent my handlebar, at the same time managing to straighten out the damage and I was off again, keeping in mind St. Louis as my next stop. Here I had another sad experience. While lunching at a restaurant this time was a mark of interest to both white and colored. One of these rascals stole my valise, which was strapped to the rear of my machine. My loss was part of my clothing, valuable papers and undeveloped photographic films. Fortunately, I had adopted a plan to constantly mollify me from one city to another; otherwise I would have been in a sad plight.
On my way to Colorado I began to have motor trouble for the first time. Inspection disclosed that the collision and constant swift run of my poor Scout had greatly damaged my machine, and repairs were very necessary. On some steep grades, with the bolling sun making my trip real tiresome, I was obliged to get off and push my lame duck out. Oh! Goed! I was not going to drink the drink of my lame duck! This is really where all the trouble starred, and right here is where I would have turned back. I was determined to make the trip regardless of the difficulties. Making up my mind that I had undertaken a great task, now was the time, I figured. It was up to me to carry it through, and so I did. I pushed and shoved and coated down hill, tinkered with the motor and finally reached Santa Fe, New Mexico, where I discarded my old machine and purchased a new Indian horse. I had to go to the store where I were forgotten and I began to enjoy the bliss of my journey once more. Arriving in Arizona, I visited several friends and continued to face the desert. Up to this time the heat seemed to be getting the best of me, to such an extent that my clothing became very uncomfortable. To some people the desert's warm, lurid air encourages despair, but to me it acted as a mental stimulant. My thoughts drifted back to the various stories of the horse crossing the Sahara. I imagined the poor unfortunate on camels and caravans, then I compared myself riding a swift twentieth century invention, and thought how wonderful is our present-day civilization.
The temperature then was about 106 in the shade, and, believe me, it was real hot. I did not have any time to worry about the heat.
Through the sand, gravel and rugged desert roads I seemed to develop a new interest in the humming of my motor, which broke the stillness of the journey. I sang and whistled and did almost every thing while riding just to kill the monotony. Not a soul could I see, nothing but white sand for miles and miles, and occasionally a small clump of cactus on the sand, and occasionally a small clump of these patches in order to rest the sight a bit, my machine not stuck in deep sand, and over the handbars I went, but no damage was done this time.
My only real craving was for cool water and shade. The three canteens of water which I carried were so warm that I could not drink the water. On I rode until night overtook me, and at that point I put to the side of the road, opened my camping bag, lit the alcohol stove and prepared a little dinner. After a light refreshment which consisted of beans, bread, and fruit, I blinked on the mice soft sand a little way from my machine. I laid down to pleasant dreams, taking care to keep my heavy automatic revolver right at hand in case of an attack.
In spite of the great heat during the day, one would be surprised to notice how cool the desert is at night. From the desert the only good paved road I encountered was at Victoryville, Calif. There I stopped for refreshment and fuel, then stepped on the gas for Los Angeles I approached Central and Ninth Street a little group of inquisitive people gathered around me. Both machine and I were a mass-of-mud and dirt. I was tired but very happy, as the end of my journey was at hand. While visiting Los Angeles I was entertained by the following friends: Capt. Hall (colored) of the Fro Department, Dr. Bowers, Rev. Shaw, pastor of Vesley Chapel; the Mrs. and Mrs. John Burrilette, Rev. Jesse Wemple; the Mrs. and Mrs. Walter, Walters and Mrs. King, Mrs. Cohn, Mr. and Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Young and many others, of which time and lack of space will not permit me to mention. These hospitable people treated me splendidly and I feel that their kindness shall be a lasting memory.
It would take more than words to express my appreciation for the enjoyable time that these new friends showed me, and it is in evidence that the western colored people are a very refined and well-paid our race. The memoirs of these people will never be forgotten. My return trip was more successful, because I gained a lot of experience and had a better machine to travel on and a far better route.
There are a thousand and one places of interest, fascination, beauty and romance to be seen while traveling across the continent. I arrived in New York City the latter part of August, none the worse for wear.

it is more of a day's travel, which was generally
an average of 350 miles a day. I just barely had
enough energy left to eat and retire.
Very often I was too far from any habitation, and for that reason I was forced to, accept the hospitality of Mother Nature by spreading my blanket under the canopy of heaven and resorting to sweet slumber. In many instances I had to sleep on the wet ground. Nevertheless, my deter- mination seemed to have kept me physically fit. Never did I have an acue or pain. Each day

Billiard Notes
THE Lafayette Emporium is getting all dolled up from stem to stern for the coming season of billards. Many interesting features will be presented for the pleasure of the patrons and their friends.
"OLD INYOR" has had a good rest during the month of August and, according to schedule, the entry sheets for the Robin Emporium Open Round Robin Billard Tournament are up. This will be an open affair, with no handicaps for Class A, which must be able to make an average of two or more! Class B, which must be able or more. Come on, you sharks!
ROY HOLLAND (Boston Kid) is rairing to go at pocket billards and is open to meet any colored person up or James Evans at 125 to 100, and for bucks. Step up, you are next if you can pop.
THE passing of Labor Day brings all the musicians home from a somewhat doubtful season, but, like jolly good fellows, they are not complaining. Joe Grey and his pal, Charlie Wilson have done so good. Nelson has this summer. Four and five-pounders were common catches, so they write? I wound.
KID COLES has at last got his Betsey out of the hospital, where the teacher gave a good job on his baby, without which he can't shoot a lick. She is English, you know, and solid ebony inlaid with pearl.
CLARENCE JONES, the two-time champion of Musicians, received a prize for his last win, being allowed to choose his own prize. He was presented with a sterling silver tickler. Yes, without the fillings!
CHARLIE LADSON defeated J. T. Bell in a match game of 100 points straight billiards in the C. A. B. P. Labor Day. Score, 100 to 95. Songs close.

Deep-Dyed Villains Scarce in "Great Deception"
"The Great Deception," the Robert Kane photoplay for First National, announced for early exhibition at the Roosevelt Theatre, is one of the comparatively few moving picture, stories in which there is no deep dyed, villainy. There isn't a single character, in the action who doesn't command a large respect—because there isn't a single character whose actions seem influenced by anything other than perfectly reasonable and honest convictions. "It's in the story—without which there could be no drama—is between two fina- upstanding men, each fired, with loyalty for the cause he represents. In this respect both are "leading men." And there is no "villain."

‘and colored groups in America;
(2) To discuss methods of better

‘act on local interracial conditions:
(3) To exchange concrete experi-
ence from groups of women that
have already attempted to carry
‘out interracial programs: (4) To
study the past experience of or-

work, to learn both from the suc
cess ‘and failures of such efforts
how best to proceed in the future;
(5) To understand better the pres-
ent trend of feeling and opinion
in race relations that the churches
may more effectively work for {n-

will be largely made up of open
forum discussions under the guid-

HARVARD AND HOLLYWOOD
MAGAZINE SECTION THIRD SECTION
PRESIDENT ELIOT of Harvard and Rudolph Valentino of Hollywood died within twenty-four hours of each other. Their lives ran perpendicular to each other. Harvard and Hollywood represent two contrasted tendencies in contemporaneous life. Eliot embodied the tradition, the conscience and the culture of Harvard, which is at the heart of New England, which is at the heart of the nation. Her roots strike deep into the soil of Puritanism, of whose seed American civilization as we see it today is the fruit. If any one of the hundreds of millions who have lived and died on this continent might be chosen to represent America at her best, Eliot would doubtless be that man. He was not a super-intellect like Emerson, nor moral genius like Lincoln, nor yet a patriotic idol like Washington, but his life was gentle and the elements so mixed in him that, like Brutus, it is sufficient to say that this was a man.

in an old reader there

LAZY NED.
in an old reader there was a little poem entitled "Lazy Ned." and the first verse runs:
"Twas royal fun, cried lazy Ned.
To coast upon my fine new sled.
And beat the other boys;
But I can never bear to climb
The tiresome hill, for every time
It more and more annoys."
This lazy fellow liked coasting: he enjoyed the swift descent on his sled; he was always anxious to pass the other boys on the trip down hill; but Ned hated to pull his sled up hill. This was characteristic of his attitude toward worth-while things which required an effort; and this disposition to shirk was his undoing.
The poem tells how this lazy failed in school because he was too lazy to study, and how:
This lazy fellow liked coasting; he enjoyed the swift descent on his sled; he was always anxious to pass the other boys on the trip down hill; but Ned hated to pull his sled up hill. This was characteristic of his attitude toward worth-while things which required an effort; and this disposition to shirk was his undoing.
The poem tells how this lazy fellow failed in school because he was too lazy to study, and how:
"Thru all his life he dreads still
The silly bug-bear of up hill,
And died a dunce at last."
There are many lazy Needs and do things; they want to have; they pine for praise and material things; they covet the they shirk the up-hill pull, to fail.
It was the illustrious L.

There are many lazy Neds. They want to have things and do things; they want the enjoyment which others have; they pine for praise and honor as well as of material things; they covet the fruits of achievement; but they shirk the up-hill pull, the terrific struggle, and they fail.
It was the illustrious Longfellow who wrote:
"Heights by great men reached and kept
Were not attained by sudden flight.
But they, while their companions slept,
Were toiling upward in the night."
These teach lessons of struggle, sacrifice, and persistence, constituting the foundation on which the superstructure of achievement is erected, and without which success is impossible.
By analogy, life is an Alpine mountain to be scaled; a mine with buried treasures to be digged; an unknown region to be explored; a battlefield on which to fight; a refreshing well from which to draw; but, in all of its manifestations success or achievement will necessitate a struggle—an-up-hill pull! In this regard those who have faith, patience, determination, courage, and zeal, and who will not yield to circumstances, will win; but those who are indifferent, like Lazy Ned, the shirkers, the timid ones, and "the fearful and unbelieving," will fail—like Lazy Ned!
entino may be made to typify Hollywood, which sprang up but yesterday. It represents America gone mad over the gayeties and frivolities of life presented in pictorial form. Harvard says that "life is real, life is earnest": Hollywood says that "the play is the thing."
Eliot's life was consecrated to truth and service; in the lexicon of Valentino these terms did not exist. Harvard scorns Hollywood, Hollywood laughs at Harvard. Eliot regarded the erotic and sensational ministration of Valentino as repugnant to his Puritanical soul. The learned didactics of the head of Harvard would give Valentino the headache. The two have nothing in common in their cultural, social or ethical philosophy.
Eliot devoted his active life, spanning two generations, to strenuous service consecrated to the welfare of his kins; Valentino, during a few years of his brief existence. did nothing but pose.
The one said to his fel-

lows, "Follow my example"; the other, "Look on my attitudinizing." Harvard says, "Straight is the way that follows my lead, and few there be that find it." Hollywood says, "Mine is the broad way to joy, and the multitudes walk together there."
Harvard and Hollywood are both great educational institutions. Harvard reaches the few, Hollywood the many. A few thousand young men, sifted and selected by brainwrecking process, recruit the ranks of Harvard. One hundred million pupils pass through Hollywood every week. There are no prerequisites, no preliminaries of the rigid academic sort. Whosoever will may come and look and learn. All of the facts of human history and human experience are presented to the eye.
H. G. Wells, in a recent notable opinion, has said that the traditional four years of college education of the Harvard sort is but time wasted, and that Harvard and Yale, in the years to come, will be the home of the owl and the bat.
WHOSE OX IS GORED?
MANY tragedies could be sorrow and pain of the thing to put the interests as their own to accept from would be willing to accord to the interests of others as the others to act in regard to the to these interests to accept one case as in the other relations and dealings with.

MANY tragedies could be obviated, also much of the sorrow and pain of the world, if men would be willing to put the interests of others on the same plane as their own to accept from others only such as they would be willing to accord to others; to act in regard to the interests of others as they would desire nad expect others to act in regard to their own interests; in relation to these interests to accept the same evidence in the one case as in the other — and to do this in all of their relations and dealings with men.
The disposition toward inequality in such matters is illustrated by an old story found in Webster's "Blueback Speller," to this effect:
A farmer called on a certain judge in his neighborhood and said: "Judge, I have come to inform you of a serious accident. Just yesterday my bull gored one of your oxen, and he is dead, so I came to ask what shall be done in regard to it?"
Very promptly the judge said: "Well. I shall expect one of your best oxen in the stead of the one killed." "But wait," said the farmer. "I made a mistake; "it was your bull that gored my ox, and it is my ox that is dead instead of yours."
Without hesitance the judge said: "Well, in that case I shall have to inquire into the matter."
Many individuals, like the judge, are willing to accept reparation for injury done on the evidence presented, but are not willing to accept the same evidence when they have done the injury, and when they are called upon to make reparation. Like the judge, when they are concerned they will "look into it," which means for the most part that they will seek some way to lighten their obligation or to evade it altogether.
But honor, honesty, justice and equity all require and demand that one should act as promptly and as fairly in the one case as in the other—that there should be the same standard, no matter whose ox is gored!
Sorbonne Lectures at 4 Cents Impart the Culture of France
PARIS, Sept. 6.—For 1 franc 33 centimes, about 4 cents, it is possible today to attend a lecture at the Sorbonne delivered by professors bearing the most famous names in contemporary French science, art, history and literature.
That probably is the record low price in the world for the opportunity to acquire higher learning. This is what it costs to attend the summer vacation courses held especially to give foreigners an acquaintance with French culture.
These courses, which are usually attended mostly by teachers of foreign universities, are growing increasingly popular every year, there being over 500 enrolled this year, as compared with 360 in 1925. The list includes a large number of Germans, as well as many Americans.
VIRGIN ISLANDS COST U. S. $295 PER ACRE
WASHINGTON — The Virgin Islands, St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix, purchased by the United States from Denmark for $25,000,000 in 1917, and having a total area of 132 square miles, cost the Government $295 per acre. This figure overshadows the 2 cents per acre paid for Alaska, the 27 cents per acre for the Philippines, and the $35.80 an acre paid for the Panama Canal Zone. The 26,051 Virgin islanders inhabiting the islands at the time the United States took possession are said to be steadily decreasing in number.

We are startled at this extreme view. And yet we do know that the visual dramatization of life will greatly modify educational procedure in the future. Instead of marching through Gaul with Caesar at the rate of six inches a day, the student will envisage the whole campaign in two hours on the screen. On its educational side, Harvard should direct Hollywood, while Hollywood should supplement Harvard.
The world today stands distraught between these two conflicting influences—the grave and severe, and the lively and the gay. Eliot stands for intellectual, social, and ethical severity. Valentino, exalting in his personal pulchritude, looks upon life as a perpetual holiday. The element of race may enter into these contrasted attitudes. The Yankee takes his work, his play, his duty and his religion seriously. He lives to work. He is, perhaps, the only man in the world who loves to work. The great bulk of mankind hates to work and

WATERMELONS SOLD
AT $40 PER CARLOAD
LAUREL, Dela, Sept. 6.—The bottom dropped out of the watermelon market here today. Of 32 cars offered at auction, only ten were purchased at prices ranging from $40 to $80 a car as it stood on the railroad tracks. On some of the cars the buyers refused to bid as much as $5.
It is interesting to note that in one carload there may be from 800 to 1,200 watermelons, depending upon their size and weight.
"Roll, Jordan, Roll!"
The Jordan River will soon be rolling for the benefit of industry. Financial plans for its harnessing have been completed, and the Palestine Electric Corporation, which owns the concessions, has been notified that $750,000 is available for the project. This project is part of the plan now being worked out to restore Palestine, as the cultural and spiritual home of the Jews, and to bring Jews back to Palestine for industrial and agricultural life.

e Hollywood
loves to play. The austerity of the Puritan is a diminishing influence in the world. Even Eliot is a protest against the awful severity of his ancestors. In the days of Jonathan Edwards, it was a sin to dance, a sin to play cards, a sin to go to the theatre, and even a sin to read novels. Eliot was about half way between Jonathan Edwards and Valentino.
The ultimate aim of Harvard is to make the world better, while that of Hollywood is to keep the world gay. The one is concerned with the life to come — either some remote, blissful abode beyond the skies or a better order of things in the new and better earth that is to be.
For Hollywood there is no life to come. The life that now is is the only life that is. The older Harvard appealed only to the elite. The great toiling mass was looked upon as a folk to be exploited, pitied and prayed for. They constituted no part of the ennobling cultural scheme. It was a pure aristocracy in which the common man had no more part than the Helots in the culture of Greece.
But the democratic spirit is constantly at work. The enjoyment and delights of the common people are as much to be considered as worth-while forms of culture as cultural enjoyments of the chosen few. American literature is fast falling under the dictatorship of the proletariat. Our publishing houses are turning out what the people want, not what the critics praise. If we count by the bulk of the matter distributed, the Saturday Evening Post has a thousand times the circulation of the New York Nation. The one caters to

the taste and standard of the multitude; the other to the intellect and conscience of the tw.
Our widely circulated newspapers are yellow. Short stories in magazine and book form are rolling from the press as autumn leaves fall from the trees. They are adapted to meet the requirements of the sixth grade mind. It is only in politics and economics that the proletariat has no show. In recreation, literature and amusements it has come into its own. Under this tendency of things we may expect the influence of Hollywood to increase and that of Harvard to decrease.
Eliot and Valentino — which of the twain achieved the greater success? If we regard success as the prosperous outcome of action, measured in terms of our common standard of values — the almighty dollar — the Italian easily wears the palm. He earned as much money in a year as Eliot did in a lifetime. Ours is a material time. The supreme query is too often: How much is he worth? Not in terms of intellectual, moral and spiritual values, but in terms of the coin of the realm.
If, again, we measure success by popular appreciation and applause, Valentino is the victor. Eliot has captured his thousands and Valentino his tens of thousands.
The death of the great President of Harvard called forth the dignified homage and dry-eyed respect of the inner circle and the Brahm's caste to which he belonged, and the cold, calculated admiration of his fellow men, who held his character and his accomplishments in high esteem.
The passing of Valentino moistened the eyes of the
multitude. There are only two types of men who arouse the passionate emotions of their fellows those who sacrifice and suffer for their cause and those who merely live and love and laugh.
Eliot was never called upon to sacrifice or to suffer. He lived in cultural isolation above the level of the common lot. Valentino, the sheik, was a model in passion for all who feel or feign romantic love. They cannot but weep at his untimely taking off. If, again, we take newspaper notice as a measure of esteem, the lovely sheik received as many pages of obituary as the erudite president received columns. Even in Boston, the field of Eliot's life and labors, the same proportion holds good. The papers must give the people what they want. They desired the personalia of Valentino rather than that of Eliot:
Another way to evaluate life is by thrills and heart-throbs, rather than by length of years. Eliot lived to be ninety-two years old. Valentino reached but a third of that age. What is gained in intensity is lost in time. Eliot's nature was not capable of experiencing the kicks and thrills and throbs that characterized the vivacious Italian. If the making of money, the winning of popular applause and admiration and the sheer enjoyment of the zest of existence constitute the charmed life. Valentino lends the way.
But there is a higher appraisement of success. The happy outcome of an effort in terms of its own high aims and ideals constitutes the definition which appeals to the sober judgment of mankind. From this point of view President Eliot's life was a superlative success. The
worthwhileness of the motive reason, and in view, must also be given consideration. Valentino was of the earth—earthy. He could never rise above the appreciation of flesh and blood. Eliot was filled with the higher and holier motive, which comes from above. His aim was altruistic; his virtues were vicarious. He adhered to the school of ethics which extolled truth and duty, rather than the popular meaning of success. It is pathetically true that the god of success, reduced to the lowest terms of dollars and cents, is leading our youth down the steep path of destruction. The only greatness that is worth while grows out of high ideals and adhering to them. The outcome is indifferent.
The noble ends by noble means obtains
Or failing, smiles in exile or in chains:
Like good. Oralius. let him reign, or bled.
Like Socrates. that man is great indeed.
For Eliot and Valentino have done their work and gone their way. Their works follow them. The life of Valentino was brilliant, vivacious, buoyant; his influence is fleeting and evanescent. In the years to come the world will look upon his performances, but will fail to discover a single contribution of able or lasting value. On the other hand, Eliot's granite character, his influence upon the thought and culture of his age will go on, and with multiplying momentum in their wholesome effect upon the intellect, character, conscience and consecration of unborn generations.
Hollywood and Harvard sound them together which evokes the deeper appreciation?

Tire Mileage Is
"Car owners who are buying Goodyear tire mileage this year are paying about 15 per cent less than they did last year, according to statisticians of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. at Akron, who have also figured out the following interesting tire price comparisons," says Ben Levy. Goodyear denier at 141th street and Seventh avenue. Goodyear tire mileage today costs the car owner 29 per cent less than it did in 1923, 73 per cent less than during the World War and 32 per cent less than in the pre-war date of 1914.
Two factors, the statement of the Goodyear statistical men points out, make price comparisons difficult when it comes to tires. First, it is not easy to arrive at average prices which take into consideration all the variables typically present in the cars and their popularity. Car owners, and second, because a tire of a given size and type delivers considerably more mileage in 1926 than it did several years ago.

Bestir too Late
NOW that the horse is out steps are being taken to lock up the barn. This applies to last Wednesday morning's disastrous fire at 420 St. Nicholas avenue, in which a toll of six lives was taken. The chairman of the Board of Transportation has appointed a committee of engineers to determine what should be done to prevent hindrances to fire fighting apparatus on streets and avenues where subways are under construction. This, however, does not relieve the City of New York and the Board of Transportation of criminal negligence in not taking steps sooner to prevent such a catastrophe.
NOT ONLY THIS, there is abundant evidence of negligence and indifference on the part of officials of the Fire Department, whose duty it would appear to be to see to it that apparatus for fighting such a fire are kept on hand. How, when and where the fire started has not yet been determined, but at 4:45 Wednesday morning flames could be seen on every floor of the five-story house, which means that it started at some time prior to that hour.
AT 4:45 the alarm had already been turned in and a woman and baby living on the top floor had already made the leap which may cost them their lives. Hook and ladder companies first arrived on the scene a few minute before five, but the equipment they brought with them was practically useless so far as the saving of human life was concerned. The ladders could only be extended to the third floor. The six already dead and those lying in serious conditions in the hospital lived on the fourth and fifth floors of the ill-fated building. Even the first water played on the building from the front fell far short of it.
WHAT A PITIABLE SIGHT it was to behold—an inhabited building in flames and hundreds of people, including firemen, helpless to render assistance where it was most needed. What a pity it is that officials entrusted with safeguarding the lives of inhabitants of the City of New York must await disaster before they bestir themselves to action.
OTHERWISE CAREFUL Negro drivers of automobiles, and many white ones, too, disregard all traffic regulations until One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street is reached when journeying south, and recklessness begins at this point when travelling north. A few jail sentences, with no alternative of paying a fine, for traffic violators in the Negro section of Harlem might cause a greater respect for the law and the lives of other people.
ALABAMA COURTS have before them a concrete example of a colored man who took orders from a white man to the extent that he became party to a
defenseless murder, even going so far as to fire the fatal shot into the body of a judge who from all accounts had never done anything to him. The judge's son-in-law plotted his death.
EXPRESSED BY OUR CONTEMPORARIES
The State Is Powerless to Punish Lynchers
(From the Norfolk Journal and Guide.) Appointments of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill in Congress have persistently based intention for the need of Federal legislation with lynching on the grounds that as a government only has the ineptitude of local authority with this crime been glaringly manifest that the law machinery of the states in law flourishes most is impotent to bring others to justice.
Appointments of the Dyer bill have just as much countered with the contention that the policy of the laws of the states to deal with lynchings is unimpaired. Southern congressional have assailed every intimation that of their states were inadequate or indispect to curbing this crime.
Early one Sunday morning three weeks down of Wytheville in Wythe County furnished with another lynching, and develop to that affair have since furnished states of Federal anti-lynching legislative unassailable argument that as ever before mouths, the paradoxical practice following the lynching good Virgilianing the entire State press unanimous that everything lawfully and humanly be done immediately to run down the crimes of this crime and bring them to justice of the Commonwealth might in part explain. Governor Harry F. Byrd, Virginia's young Chief Magistrate, it was suggested, to the whole power of the State to be disgrace upon the Old Dominion. The like his good fellow-citizens, sensed the need of putting State probes on the trail of and immediately offered State assistants local authorities. His offer was declined again made, and again rejected. Now what the Governor can legally do no more circumstances. It is declared in state law of local authorities. Unless local authority not the offer of State assistance, it is declared Governor is without authority to act. And that he cannot offer a reward or supplementary to a reward already offered authorities, and no local reward has been. This means, bluntly stated, in Virgilian a lynching is purely a local affair in which be dealt with by law, the rest of local citizens of the State be hanged. Authorities should choose to whitewash affair, they have the power to do so, and nor nor anybody else can interfere. Considering these allegations, is there any punishment on the part of Lynchia? They know that it is more precarious liquor or to break the speed limit of away than it is to riddle a human being, savage mutilate his body and hang the limb. Why lynchers know that no resescence is required for the State's legal order to go anywhere in its courthouse or the speeder, but when it comes participants in mob violence, local ineffectively become an impasse. The Governor was not lose hope. He kept State assistance open, and finally judged and Commonwealth's attorney to his appointment of a special State to assist the Commonwealth's attorney in lynching. Now, we are told, the State is may unearth whatever evidence they have but it must be presented to the local for consideration or failure of consideration as the jurors may please. It is states fraud jury has the power to ignore the laws altogether. The most ardent advocates of Federal anti-lynching administration have never been able to muster a supportive argument as has been disdainful for the lynching of Raymond Bird at Wythe.
The State Is Powerless to Punish Lynchers
(From the Norfolk Journal and Guide.)
Proponents of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill still pending in Congress have persistently based their contention for the need of Federal legislation to deal with lynching on the grounds that as a general rule not only has the ineptitude of local authorities in dealing with this crime be glaringly manifested, but that the law machinery of the states in which lynch-law flourishes most is impotent to bring the lynchers to justice.
Opponents of the Dyer bill have just as persistently countered with the contention that the competency of the laws of the states to deal with lynching is unimpaired. Southern congressmen in particular have assailed every intimation that the laws of their states were inadequate or indifferent in respect to curbing this crime.
Now early one Sunday morning three weeks ago the town of Wytheville in Wythe County furnished Virginia with another lynching, and developments relative to that affair have since furnished the advocates of Federal anti-lynch legislation the most unassailable argument that has ever been put into their mouths. Here are the paradoxical developments: following the lynching good Virginians, including the entire State press, unanimously demanded that everything lawfully and humanly desirable be made available to the perverse purpose of this crime and bring them to justice, so that the Commonwealth might in part expiate its shame. Governor Harry F. Byrd, Virginia's vigorous young Chief Magistrate, it was suggested, should bring the whole power of the State to bear upon this disgrace upon the Old Dominion. The Governor, like his good fellow-citizens, sensed the necessity of putting State probers on the trail of this affair and immediately offered State assistance to the local authorities. His offer was declined. It was again made, and again rejected. Now we are told that the Governor can legally do no more under the circumstances. It is declared in statements coming out of Richmond that the Governor's part in such an affair must be predicated entirely upon the will of local authorities. Unless local authorities accept the offer of State assistance, it is declared, the Governor is without authority to act. It is stated that he cannot even offer reward it be supplementary a reward offered by local authorities, and local reward has been received. This means, bluntly stated, in Virginia at least a lynching is purely a local affair in so far as it can be dealt with by law, the rest of the disgraced citizens of the State be hanged. If the local authorities should choose to whitewash the whole affair, they have the power to do so, and the Governor nor anybody else can interfere.
Considering these allegations, is there any cause for fear of punishment on the part of lynchers in Virginia? They know that it is more precarious to bootleg liquor or to break the speed limit on the highway than it is to riddle a human being with bullets, savagely mutilate his body and hang it to a tree limb. Why, lynchers know that no local acquiescence is required for the State's legal machinery to go anywhere in its confines after the distiller or the speeder, but when it comes to pursuing participants in mob violence, local inepthitude may effectively become an impasse. But the Governor did not lose hope. He kept his offer of State assistance open, and finally the county judge and Commonwealth's attorney consented to his appointment of a special State counsel to assist the Commonwealth's attorney in probing the lynching. Now, we are told, the State investigators may unearth whatever evidence they can or may, but it must be presented to the local grand jury for consideration or failure of consideration, just as the jurors may please. It is stated that the grand jury has the power to ignore the State prothers altogether.
The most ardent advocates of Federal anti-lynching legislation have never been able to muster such powerful supporting argument as has been disclosed by the lynching of Raymond Bird at Wytheville.
Kearny's Race Problem
(From the Newark Call)
While one may be in hearty sympathy with those residents of Kearny who so strenuously object to what they regard as an attempt to establish a colony of colored people in their neighborhood, it is more than doubtful if the action of the town council in revoking the building permit that had been granted will be unheld by the courts if the matter is tested.

There is no attempt to offer any other reason for revoking the permit than to prevent the intrusion of colored people into an exclusively white neighborhood. In other words, the objection is based entirely upon the question of color. The first section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution provides that "no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States. Nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law, nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
Obviously it is not within the power of a subdivision of a state to do that which the state is forbidden to do. When a person is denied a building permit for no other, reason than because of his color there can be no question but that his privileges as a citizen are abridged and that he is denied equal protection of the laws. A permit that could not legally be denied a white citizen cannot legally be withheld from a colored citizen.
Apparently the only safeguard is to be found in covenants embodied in real estate conveyances restricting ownership to white people. We believe that in a District of Columbia case such covenants have been upheld. The desire of respectable and prosperous colored people to live in decent neighborhoods and amid seemly surroundings is laudable and deserves to be encouraged, but those members of the race are unwise who endeavor to gratify their ambitions by intruding upon highly developed and thickly populated neighborhoods exclusively occupied by white people and where their presence is bitterly insulting. Whether the Ku Klux Klan was responsible for the letter threatening bodily harm and even death to those supposed to be responsible for the alleged invasion, or whether the Ku Klux mask was adopted to disguise the authors, is uncertain. But in either case it deserves only condemnation. No matter how strong local feeling may be there can be no excuse for violence.
The Messiahs and Other Fakirs
Expedition to Explore Unknown Regions of Abyssinian Empire
"New Negro" a New Physical Type, Declares Dr. Melville Herskovitz
JIDDU KRISHNAMURTI! A name to conjure with. Its unpronouncebility will appeal to the ignorant. His backers and exploiters are shrewd enough to know that the easiest way to impose some new religious fanaticism on the minds of the ignorant, is to go to the other side of the world and get some stranger of a strange name and fetch him around to be "the Messiah." "the Anointed," "the Christ"—all of which terms mean the same thing.
We'll bet Mrs. Besant, or anybody else, a quarter of a dollar that the Theosophists never would have nerve enough, in an English-speaking country, to make a god or a demigod out of a plain "Henry Smith" or "John Jones." But "Jiddu Krishnamurti" has the necessary number of strange sounds in it. Do you remember the happy old lady who, returning from the Sunday morning service, said: "I certainly did enjoy the preaching this morning! I just loved to hear the preacher repeat that wonderful word — "Mesopotamia!"
Messiahs are no new things in human history. Many new religions have had them, or hold out hopes to have them. That is necessary to a new religion. Now our Theosophists are exploiting this young Oriental. That is another thing about Mes-
Expedition Regions
The scientific big-game hunting expedition of the Field Museum of National History, the Chicago Daily News and North American Newspaper Alliance into mysterious Abyssinia is now on its way. The expedition, which was made up in Chicago, left here Monday, Dr. Wilfred Osgood and Alfred M. Bailey, who led the expedition, will pick up Jack Baum, reporter of the expedition, and the others of his party between Chicago and the port of Jibutu, in French Somalland, whence they are to strike off into the little known mountain empire over which the Queen of Sheba once ruled, there to hunt strange animals, including the strange nyala, known as "the Queen of Sheba's antelope." Waiting for them in Addis Ababa, the inland capital of Abyssinia, the explorers will find two and one-half tons of equipment and supplies, shipped from Chicago
There will be no corner stores to run to in the wilderness which the expedition is going to explore. Food, medicines, camp equipment, pack train gear, guns, ammunition, scientific supplies—all had to be purchased in
"New Negro" a New Declares Dr.
Writing in the September number of Current History Magazine, Melville Herskovitz of the Anthropology Department of Columbia University reports that a new physical type of Negro is being developed in the United States. Mr. Herskovitz arrived at his conclusion after an examination of 2,000 individuals in Harlem and at Howard University. Some of Dr. Herskovitz's findings were published several weeks ago in The Amsterdam News.
The results indicate that the United States census figures, which state that only 20 per cent of American Negroes are mali- ture, understate the amount of mixture which has gone on, and the results obtained by Mr. Herskovitz indicate that probably 80 per cent of American Negroes are mali- ture. This figure might be slightly reduced.
Mr. Herskovitz states, because his measurements were undertaken in the North.
The new type disclosed by the measurements in tending to become a stable one, he believes, since there is increasing social pressure against associating with members of opposite groups among both Negroes and whites.
siahs: they have to be young, around thirty years old enough to be comparatively safe and yet young enough to be appealing. And so Jiddu Krish (we will call him that to save time, or maybe just Wrish will do) is adopted by our Theosophists.
Theosophy is a religious cult whose devotees pretend to be more directly connected with some god than do the followers of most other religions. The word means "divine wisdom" or "wisdom of god." Whenever a fellow wants to get out of working hard for a living, he always pretends to have some closer connection with God than ordinary mortals have. You will notice that such people never do depend on God to feed and clothe them, however: they expect the ordinary mortals to do that. They pretend to control private wires to heaven, but they live in the sweat of other men's brows.
A few centuries ago this Krish, with his claim to some sort of inside dealing with the Almighty, could have been put over big on this little world. But today, if we must worship any human at all, we are going to worship some of our real benefactors, like Edison or Burbank or Carver. One Burbank in a million years is worth more, both to the stomachs and to the souls of mankind, than is a "Messiah"
to Explore of Abyssin
advance and shipped with care.
The expedition's equipment is
perhaps the most thoroughly
American stock ever carried on
an African exploration. It is
probable no other important
expedition ever went to the "black
continent" with none but American
guns.
Kermit Roosevelt is contributing one of the big guns. It is a Hoffman 375 that he carried on his memorable Simpson-Roosevelt-Field expedition after the otis poll.
Camp chairs and cots are among the things shipped out to Addis Ababa. African travelers aren't able to do without such furniture, after the American fashion. The Abyssinian jungles are full of deadly snakes with a liking for human beffellows; the wise traveler sleeps well off the ground. Voracious tropical ants must be considered, too. On their account the expedition's furniture will be of steel, and all canvas will be treated with chemicals.
The expedition is to spend six months or more in the wilds of Abyssinia, hunting the rare fauna of the country, exploring regions never visited by white men and

North and South. Mr. Herkovitz instances a recent investigation of illegitimate children conducted in Harlem which showed that in only seven cases out of 500 were the fathers alleged to be white.
Mr. Herskovitz, who finds that the "New Negro" in his physical measurements occupies a position between the African and the white man, concludes as follows:
"On the face of the results which have been obtained from this study—which, it must be confessed, barely scratches the surface-of this field—it seems that from now on we shall have to think of the American Negro not as an African type in which there has been mixed a small amount of white blood, a mixture which is still continuing and that will continue long enough finally to achieve the absorption of the Negro into the dominant white population. We must think rather in terms of this New Negro, with his relatively homogeneous form and relatively stabilized type, who has solved the business of living in this American culture, and who, with his start fairly won, will press on in the American community as a full-fledged member of it."

Theosophy may serve the more brainless section of the rich by relieving them of the ennui of their idleness and furnishing them with a more aristocratic religion than that of the sweaty working people. After all, the wealthy old dames might worship something a heap worse than this little brown man Krish. They might have made a fair-looking god out of Valentino, but he could dance and drink and cuss too humanly, and his performances were too easy for the common people to grasp and comprehend. But Krish is sufficiently unknown and unknowable to turn the trick. And it is a good deal better "divine" statesmanship to fetch "Jiddu Krish" from the far heights of India than to attempt to put over "Sam Shanks" from the red hills of Georgia!
Go to it, Krish! We wish you the best of luck—by all means better luck than that which has overtaken most of the "Messiahs." We hope you will always avoid scandal, which will be hard enough, even for a god, under the circumstances. And we advise that you demand of them always "cash down" for all of your promissory notes on divine favors. There was just one Messiah who loved His enemies and sought first of all the Kingdom of Heaven—and they lynched Him.

First Eight Months See 17,471 Companies
ALBANY, Sept. 6.—Labor can smile this week. For the first eight months this year a total of 17,411 companies of all sorts and description have incorporated in New York State, as compared to 16,045 for a similar period last year. The wheels of industry are humming. More companies mean more work and general prosperity. There exists no quaking belief in the future. A separate week this week flee the E. S. Knapp, Secretary of State, in whose department the corporation bureau is located, is most reassuring.
The real estate boom, particularly in the vicinity of New York City, is resulting in many such companies incorporating these days. One company was formed last month to turn out fish lines, while in this day and age of the automobile it was incorporated last month to breed horses. But to this one company there were a hundred or more incorporated to sell automobiles.
Peace Congress Protest Italian-English Pact
GENEVA, Sept. 2.—The Universal Peace Congress today passed a resolution saying that the recent accord between Great Britain and Italy for "economic penetration of Abyssinia" represents an attempt at illegitimate pressure on Abyssinia.
The resolution condemns the accord as incompatible with the spirit of the Covenant of the League of Nations and modern conception of international law. It also urges the creation of an international commission, acting under the League of Nations, to solve the problem of the Nile, with Abyssinia, Egypt and the Sudan represented on it.
Another resolution passed by the Congress protests against the pretension of Spain to suzerainty over Tangier. It recommends that the League of Nations take over control of this internationalized city in northwest Morocco.

"TOMORROW"
OTROUBLED soul, thy grief control,
And never give up thy sorrow.
Seek not to see what is to be.
Forbearing thus trouble to borrow,
Tho' dark be the day, still hope thou alway.
For skies will be brighter tomorrow!
O saddened heart, bid cares depart,
And cease now thy sad repining.
Dark tho' it may be, if we could but see,
Each cloud has a silver lining.
Then lift up thine eyes in faith to the skies;
Tomorrow the sun will be shining!
Souls everywhere, in deep despair.
Hope maketh all burdens grow lighter.
Contend for the right; be brave in the fight;
Contend till the wrongs shall be righter.
Then lift up thine eyes in faith to the skies;
Tomorrow thy way will be brighter.

Conquered Diseases
HUMAN life is safer, healthier and longer now than in days gone by. In the last forty years the life span of the average individual is fifteen years longer. But this takes care and thoughtfulness and attention to the laws of science and sanitation.
Very seldom in these days do you hear of yellow fever; yet in 1878 the city of New Orleans had an epidemic of yellow fever which caused the death of $0,000 persons. Typhus fever, Asiatic cholera, Bubonic plague and smallpox are all like yellow fever in the class of the conquered diseases. This has come about through the universal adherence to the laws of sanitation, quarantine, personal cleanliness and smallpox vaccination. Typhoid fever is nearly a conquered disease. Proper water supply for cities and villages, cleanliness in distribution of milk, and the use of anti-ytphoid vaccination are the measures that has made this disease rare. In the last war anti-ytphoid vaccination was administered to all the soldiers and typhoid fever
"Don't Have to Be Sissy to Love Art"
TORONTO, Sept. 7. — Otto Kahn, the New York banker, made a speech a day last week at the Canadian National Exhibition Directors' luncheon which fairly sparkled with epigrams. These are some of them:
"If you love art, you are not necessarily a sissy."
"Art is a true league of nations. It speaks a language that is known to all the people."
"Nothing is more indigestible than suppressed emotions."
"In a sense, art is the best antidote against Bolshevism and pernicius doctrines."
"We all need to give an airing to our souls once in a while."
"A sluggish soul is just as bad as a sluggish liver."
"A soil of our inner being should be as fertile as the lands on which the farmers work."
He referred to Mussolini and Kitchener as great men who loved art. The common people's lives were cast on a background of tameness, he said, but this was all the more reason for opening up that field where the flowers of beauty could be developed.
Insanity Among Native Whites on Increase
WASHINGTON. Sept. 7. The fact that the 42,954 feebleminded, or 39.9 to each 100,000 of population, were in institutions in 1923, as compared to 20,791, or 22.5 per cent, in 1910, probably is due to increased use of institutional facilities, according to the Department of Commerce, which made public the statistics today. The only other survey was in 1904, when the number of patients in institutions was 14,347, or 17.5 per 100,000 population.
In addition to the 42,954 feebleminded, there were also 6,750 feebleminded epileptic patients in institutions, for epileptics. Of the 42,954 total, 38,860 were native whites, and of these 20,361 were of native parentage. The department attributed the low ratio among foreign born to strict supervision of immigration.
was almost unknown among them.
Scarlet fever and measles are diseases that soon, according to present discoveries, will be among the conquered diseases. This is being done through the process of immunity brought about by a vaccination that has recently been discovered. Diphtheria, though still present with us, is not the deadly disease it was in days gone by, because of the universal use of diphtheria anti-taxin injection when the disease is present, and the now accepted use of the Scheck test to discover an immunity to the disease. If there is no immunity anti-toxin injection when the dis is given. This is being done in all the schools, and diphtheria is becoming less prevalent and easily curtailed.
The diseases that are causing most distress and deaths to-day are heart disease, phneumonia, cancer, violence (accidents, homicide, suicide), tuberculosis, and diabetes; Learn all you can about them; how they come, why they stay, and how they act. To be forewarned is to be forearmed.
MUSIC
Opera "Deep River"
in Debut Here Oct. 4
W. Franke Harling's third opera, "Deep River," will be given for the first time in Philadelphia Sept. 21, and will open its New York season at the Imperial Theatre Oct. 4. The music is written in the modern operatic vein. Jazz rhythms abound. For the first time an opera has been written where the chorus sings orchestrally, each voice following antiphonally a characteristic jazz rhythm.
"I consider jazz," said Mr. Harling. "fundamentally American. In 'A Light From St. Anne' I scratched only the surface, realizing the danger of making the jazz innovation in serious music too drastic for an audience used to the classics. But in 'Deep River' I have thrown overboard every musical law, all set rules, to emphasize the fact that jazz is not a thing to be deformed and travestied in cheap dance halls, but to be taken seriously as a new rhythmic new contribution to music the most important in the last hundred years. I try to prove in 'Deep River' that jazz can be used quite as effectively to express tragedy as comedy."
It is interesting to learn that Mr. Harling began his musical career as a writer of songs and that he spent ten years as an organist. He was the first choir instructor at West Point, where he remained for two years (1904-1910). It was during those ten years that he wrote the bulk of his church music, including 125 anthems, which have been published. "This" as Mr. Harling remarked, "gave me my choral foundation."
