"NO CLAIM ON DR. POWELL," ANN LAWRENCE SWEARS Elks to the Front AND now comes the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World with a definitely constructive program of education for the worthy sons and daughters of Elks. Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson. Commissioner of Education Hueston, and all who contributed to the cheerful essential of establishing a fund for the educational benefit of youth are to be heartily congratulated. The need was a great one from many angles — the need of the youths themselves and the need to practice real fraternalism—to establish something more substantial than the salutations of lodge meetings and the sound of the convention gavel. Among our groups, fraternalism has long since been overflowing with good fellowship, but short upon tangible results of benefit to race and nation. As a matter of fact, the phenomenal success of the Loyal Order of Moose (white) grew out of its creating a school wherein youths could obtain a high school education and a trade. Old folks and orphans' homes, the chance to learn, and the creation of definite institutions out of the secret meeting and convention have been sadly absent from fraternalistic ventures. The Elks have blazed the way by actual cash for the training of their offspring, and the checks are ready in Judge Hueston's hands for immediate mailing. It wouldn't hurt if the other worthy orders of the race were to follow in the steps of the Elks and create substantive forces for the benefit of the ir followers. And, then, wouldn't it be great if the Elks, the Odd Fellows, the Masons, the Knights, and all the fraternalities of every ilk were to clasp hands and join in one national effort in the annals of fraternalism for some specific forward step which, in displaying the fraternalistic spirit, would weld together peace, harmony and progress all the fleeting groups of American Negro life. Hosiery Vender Alleges Robbery By promising a canvasser a sale it is alleged that Mrs. Vinnie Reilly, 34, S. E. 132nd street, lured Robert Fields, 116 W. 134th street, into her apartment, and then robbed him. Following a hearing before Magistrate Albert Vitale in Harlem Court, the woman was held without ball for a further hearing this week. Fields, a salesman of silk holsery, alleges he was accosted by Mrs. Reilly, who told him to come to her home as she intended to purchase some stockings. When he entered the Reilly home, Fields found another man and woman in the apartment. The man drew a knife, he said, and ordered him to turn over ten pairs of stockings, valued at $9.75 to the women, threatening to kill him if he disobeyed. After handling the stockings to the women, Fields was ordered from the apartment. Fields went in search of a policeman and found Policeman McLaughlin, of the E. 126th street station, who returned to the apartment with Fields. The man and woman had disappeared, but Mrs. Reilly, who remained, was placed under arrest. She denied the charge.

Attorney William Patterson, associated with the law firm of Dyett, Hall and Patterson, represented Rankin. The police authorities had held the pair in jail until last week when the girl's father came here and secured ball for her. Efforts to get the girl to turn against Rankin and bring a serious charge against him failed. Defying her parents, the girl took the stand in behalf of her childhood sweetheart. Following the hearing and the release of Miss Soffer and Rankin, the girl was taken back to Duquesne, where she will stay until the birth of her child by Rankin. The couple came up through school together. A little over four months ago she came here to visit her aunt. Suddenly she disappeared. Her father was notified and the police here were asked to locate her. Local police authorities here located her living as the wife of Rankin at the W. 134th street address and Rankin was arrested as a fugitive from justice and the girl was held as a material witness. Last week the inspector of police here received a telegram from the Chief of Police at Duquesne informing him that there had been no crime committed by Rankin there that warranted them to issue a warrant for his arrest. It is believed that the parents of the girl are endeavoring still to prevent the marriage of the pair. Miss Soffer stated to a reporter that her parents could do nothing to prevent her from loving and marrying Rankin. /Rankin said that he was on his way to Duquesne to get her and was determined to marry her. HELD IN BAIL FOR FURTHER HEARING Accused with the theft of clothing valued at $150, Arthur Grant, 26, 618 St. Nicholas avenue, was held in $2,500 ball for a further hearing when he was arraigned on the complaint of Goldbond Bourne, 119 W. 137th street.

THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News Ash Can Gives Up Another Infant Fourth Time Within Year Street Cleaners Have Made Finds Wrapped in a newspaper the body of an infant girl that could hardly be more than two days old was found in an ash can Friday afternoon in front of 125 W. 121st street by employees of the Street Cleaning Department. This is the fourth time within the year that such cases have been reported to the police in Harlem. Strenuous efforts are being made by the West 123rd street station to find the parents of the child. Joseph Maroney, a white employee, had lifted the ash can to the truck and was about to empty its contents when he observed the newspaper bundle. He opened the package and saw the child's body and rushed it to the West 123rd street station. When the body was later removed to Bellevue Hospital, the medical examiner said that the infant had been smothered to death and was born only two days before her death. The baby's birth certificate is believed by the police to aid them in apprehending the infant's mother. UNKNOWN ASSAILANT FIRESONAND FATALLY WOUNDS MAN UNKNOWN ASSAILANT FIRESONAND FATALLY WOUNDS MAN Dead Man Not Yet Identified — Stray Bullet Hits James Rolls — Police Have Several Clues An unknown assailant, firing from the hallway of 60 East 132nd street, early Sunday morning, shot and killed an unidentified man as he strolled past the doorway. A stray bullet also wounded James Rolls, 36, of the East 132nd street address, who was about to enter the building. Claiming to possess information that may lead to the identity of the slayer, police have sent out a general alarm and expect to make an early arrest. Basing their belief on the gossip of the neighborhood, police say the shooting was the result of a dispute which arose during an all night period of gambling. They say that the slayer, knowing his victim would pass the E. 132nd street address, hid in the hallway and fired five shots, one of which, taking effect in the victim's back, caused death almost instantaneously. Another of the shots struck Rolls in the right arm. Attracted by the commotion, Policeman Hayes of the E. 126th street station reached the scene and summoned an ambulance from the Harlem Hospital. Dr. May Chinn of the hospital ordered Rolls to that institution for treatment. The dead man was about 25 years old, weight 145 pounds, neatly attired in a blue serge suit, cream-colored shirt, black tie, gray socks, and tan shoes. DETECTIVES DIVORCES. INVESTIGATIONS. Etc. BOULIN DETECTIVE AGENCY 116 East 185th St. Harlem 5845(day) Brad. 6650(night) DIVORCE SUIT WON BY·GARVEY AGAINST FIRST WIFE Amy Ashwood-Garvey, Alleging Illness, Fails to Appear When Case Is Called in Supreme Court Here Marcus Garvey was granted an absolute divorce from his first-wife, Amy Ashwood Garvey here Wednesday when Mrs. Garvey failed to appear before a jury and Supreme Court Justice Wassovogel. It brought to a close a long wrangle of matrimonial difficulties. Garvey is in the Federal Prison at Atlanta and could not be at the hearing. It is alleged that his wife is ill. A physician ordered by the court to examine her was barred by Mrs. Garvey from her new apartment at 16 W. 144th street. To break down the possibilities of being sued for bigamy Garvey, who had won a divorce in another state, started the same action here. The Boulin's National Detective Agency, 110 E. 125th street, was employed by the law firm of Kahn and Nagler to secure evidence against the divorced wife. Last fall the agents raided an apartment in 666 St. Nicholas avenue, where Mrs. Garvey lived at that time. Joseph Frazier, 36 W. 137th street, it was alleged, was found in the apartment with her early one morning. Mrs. Garvey admitted that the man had been nursing her because of illness. Attorney Oscar Garrett, who represented Mrs. Garvey, presented a certificate signed by a Dr. Davis stating that Mrs. Garvey was physically unable to appear in court at a former hearing and an adjournment was granted. The court then ordered Garvey's lawyer to have a physician examine Mrs. Garvey. Dr. Godfrey Nurse was assigned by the court to examine Mrs. Garvey. In an affadavit signed and presented to the court the physician stated that she refused to allow an examination despite the court's order. A few years ago Garvey started and won a suit against his first wife in a western city on the grounds of desertion. A short time afterwards he married Amy Jaques in Baltimore. It is said that Mrs. Ashwood-Garvey had then left for London. In Jan., 1925, she returned from abroad and sued for $300 a month alimony and $5,000 counsel fees. Garvey's previous divorce was contested as not being legal. Sergeant Battle Arrests Ex-Convict Melvin Smith, alias "Frank," 29, an ex-convict, 109 W. 142nd street, was held without ball by Magistrate Oberwager in the Washington Heights Court Monday for the Grand Jury on a charge of robery. Police claim that while acting in concert with two other bandits and Harry Coleman, now under an indictment for burglary, Smith attacked Herman Monsanto, electrician, 83 W. 118th street, in the hallway of No. 3 W. 137th street. The prisoner waived the examination in the Heights Court. He served a part of a twenty year sentence for manslaughter and [*] been convicted for burglary, according to the police. He was arrested by Detective Sergeant Samuel Battle of the Sixteenth Precinct.

The published report alleged that before coming to New York Dr. Powell took as his wife the widow, Ann Lawrence-Lucas, then of Washington, but now residing at 267 W. 136th street.

"This action," said Dr. Powell in an interview with a reporter for The Amsterdam News, "has been initiated for the future protection of the reputation and good name of other citizens as well as mine. I owe it to my profession, community and other citizens to spare no expense and leave no stone unturned to bring to account those responsible for the issuance and publication of the false and libelous statements. "I also owe it to myself and every decent citizen to teach the Pittsburgh Courier that this is an indecent thing, and irretrievable act; it is a crime on decent journalism to attempt to besmirch a man or woman's reputation in the manner done by the Courier. I think it speaks eloquently for the high standard of the Negro newspapers in New York, Chicago and elsewhere that such damnable falsehoods are not presented by them." The New York representative of the Courier says that the story was published in good faith after an interview with Mrs. Lucas. According to the Courier article, Mrs. Lucas had divorced her husband in Washington in 1918, and in 1920 they were married. A boy, the report continues, was born to them in 1921, but died at birth.

AX YERGAN RETURNS FROM AFRICA "Nauves of South Africa Advancing Socially and Intellectually" "Nauves of South Africa Advancing Socially and Intellectually" Max Vergan, Y. M. C. A. Worker, Returns After Five Year Stay Has Organized Thirty Associations Out of an environment that is still largely uncivilized, the natives of South Africa, backed by a growing sentiment on the part of the white residents, are steadily advancing socially and intellectually, according to the picture of the situation just brought back from Cape Province by Max Yergan, graduate of Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C., and the originator and leader of the work of the Young Men's Christian Association among the natives in South Africa. Mr. Yergan, who returned on furlough October 9, with his wife and three children, after five years of uninterrupted work, has built up brilliant hopes for the future, based partly on the support given by Negroes in the United States and partly on what he calls the "growing sentiment among a certain portion of the white population in South Africa in favor of greater justice for the natives." He will remain in this country until next Summer, visiting numerous cities and explaining the magnitude of the work in which he has been engaged. His return will be for another period of five years. Last week he was the honor guest at a dinner at the International House, New York, an event which has since been called the most outstanding interracial gathering ever brought together here. Of the 173 persons attending, the company was divided almost equally between white and colored persons of prominence in professional, business, educational and religious life. Letters of greeting were received from John D. Rockfeller, Jr., and others. The speakers and guests included: Bishop W. Sampson Brooks, A. M. E. Bishop to Liberia; E. C. Carter of The Inquiry; Dr. J. L. Peacock, president of Shaw University, Mr. Yergan's alma mater; Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, one of the two colored bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church; Dr. Richard C. Morse, former general secretary of the Y. M. C. A. International Committee; Dr. John Hope; president of Morehouse College and the only colored member of the Y. M. C. A. World's Committee at Geneva, Switzerland; Professor Mahel Carney of Teachers College, Columbia University, and Colonel William Jay Schieffelin, president of the Citizens Union, New York.

"The mind of the Europeans," he said. "Is slowly awakening to the magnitude of the African situation. Wealth is pouring into that vast territory and the world is turning there for the products which Africa yields. This had created a startling economic and social problem. "By force of circumstances, the natives find themselves living in a civilization which is basically European. Their heritage being different from that of the Europeans, they are face to face with the necessity of measuring up to the standards which surround them. "Of the 7,000,000 people in South Africa, 5,500,000 are colored, and less than 1,000,000 of these have become Christianized. Yet those who have had opportunities of advancement, intellectually and socially, have proved themselves well able to fulfill the obligation which it imposes. And more and more they are looking for aid and guidance from the Negroes of America, who unquestionably occupy the highest place of any colored people in the world.

They also are protesting certain proposals for removing some of their franchise privileges in the Cape Province. But they do not seek to overturn the existing government. "The situation is being considered with notable moderation by the native leaders, who seem willing to co-operate in every way with the Government. It is my belief that in time this spirit of co-operation will meet with a definite response. "The Young Men's Christian Association has been responsible for bringing the claim of the natives before the white inhabitants. Out of that has come an increasing inclination to give the situation the study it deserves. One of the brightest lights on the horizon is the system of joint councils, comprising both white and colored people, seeking better interracial relations. "Our Y. M. C. A. work has been principally among, students, who will be the leaders of the next generation. Where formerly we met suspicion and opposition, the doors are now open to us everywhere. More and more the whites are taking up a serious study of the interracial problem which confronts them. I have been asked repeatedly to speak before audiences in every white college in South Africa and in many public meetings. "We can't turn back. The Africans have faith in the American Negro and the Europeans are beginning to realize that we have a real contribution to make." Through Mr. Yergan's influence thirty Y. M. C. As, and one teachers' association have been set up, with a total membership of 4,000. Practically all of the outside support of his work has come from the colored people in this country. Mr. Yergan's plans include the erection of a Y. M. C. A. building, at a cost of $40,000, and the assignment of other Americans to the work. For the past five years he has been carrying it on alone, with the help of native secretaries.

The following morning, the physician said, he went to the garage and called for his Diana roadster. It was not there he was informed. Further inquiries led him to the West 135th Street Police Station, where he found and identified his machine. He said that he had glanced no one the permission to take the car out of the garage. Patrolman Martin of the West 135th Street Station said that he was standing on the corner of 135th street and Fifth avenue when he observed the two prisoners speeding down the avenue with the machine. He said that he stepped out into the street and ordered them to halt. In order to make a getaway they wheeled the car in the direction of the officer and missed him only by inches. The patrolman said that he drew his revolver and fired three bullets into the rear of the car. Further aroused by the foreign license plates on the machine, Patrolman Martin said that he summoned a machine and gave chase. Prightened by the volley of bullets the pair stopped the machine. They had no chauffeur's license and did not know who owned the machine. Martin testified. Four policemen rescued four small children and an aged invalid woman shortly before noon last Tuesday from a fire in a tenement at 312 West 133rd street. The blaze, starting in a coal bin in the basement, worked its way up an air shaft to the sixth floor before Mrs. Rebecca Frilerson, the janitress, discovered it. Her husband, James, a reserve policeman in the Police Department, sounded an alarm. Before the firemen arrived the names spread to the stairway and trapped the occupants of the fourth floor. Four children, Bertha and Herbert.Wallace and Fred and Wilhelme Scott, all less than 5 years old, were there alone with Mrs. Julia Copeland, 75. Mrs. Copeland led the children to a fire escape, but just outside the window she collapsed, overcome by smoke. Patrolmen Thomas Phelan, William Robinson and James O'Toole of the West 133th street station climbed the fire-escape and brought the group down. The children were unhurt. Mrs. Copeland was slightly burned and suffering from shock. The fire did damage estimated at $10,000. WOMEN IN MELEE OVER SUBWAY SEAT On a charge, of simple assault, Christiana Toraine, 20, W.

Governor Smith, he said, has left the sound American doctrine he advocated two years ago so as not to irritate the Southern delegates to the N ational Democratic Convention. "Democrats in State and nation are the same breed of cats," he warned. He then briefly outlined the policy that had been followed for the last six years, by both of the major parties. While the Republican Ad- ministration has been reducing our national debt, the Democrats have been raising the taxes in the State. The Democrats are pawning the future of our children, he declared. Lieutenant-Governor Lowman spoke of the milk graft. He said farmers up-State had sent good milk to New York City and grafting politicians had skimmed the milk and sold the cream at high prices, making large profits. The vetoing of the reapportionment bill, Mr. Lowman said, worked an injustice to a number of districts. In order that the bill might be passed, he urged that the people support Myles A. Paige, who is a candidate for the State Senate from the 19th Senatorial District. After a jury in the Seventh District Municipal Court, 320 W. 125th street, inspected the home of Sherman Mason, 23 W. 125th street, last week he was awarded $330 for the loss incurred through a fire in the house. Attorney Myles A. Palge, candidate for the state senate from the 19th senatorial district, made an urgent plea to voters this week at several enthusiastic meetings to support him in the coming election. Mr. Palge emphasized the fact that he had no intentions of going to Albany to represent any particular race, but that he would be true servant of the citizens of his district of all races. During the course of his talks, he always referred to housing conditions and the environment under which children live in his district. He scored his opponent for not having any real interest in the community. In nailing this point he pointed out the deplorable sanitary condition that exists in a number of the sections in Harlem. Explaining his platform, the candidate pledged to fight for the continuance of the rent laws, for legislation giving Municipal Courts power to compel landlords to make repairs, more schools, better police protection, more playgrounds and tri-borough bridge. In making their selections of candidates who are running for the state offices the Citizens' Union pointed out the fine educational qualities and ability of Mr. Palge. KILLED IN FALL FROM SUBWAY PLATFORM Traffic on southbound local trains of the Lenox avenue division of the Interborough subway was tied up more than thirty minutes at 5:30 o'clock Saturday when Harry Arlington, 37. 432 Shelton avenue, Jamaica. Queens, was killed by a Bronx Park train at the 116th street station. About a dozen persons saw the accident. They were of the opinion, the police said, that the victim lost his balance while peering over the edge of the platform and fell into the path of the train. Before the motorman, John Sullivan, of 644 Van Nest avenue, the Bronx, could stop the heavy train the first car passed over Arlington's body. A wrecking crew and the police emergency crew worked half an hour to release the body, it being necessary to jack up the car.

BROWN PLEADS GUILTY TWICE TO STABBING Thomas Arnold, 19. 3 E. 130th street, pleaded guilty to stabbing Robert Mills, also of the same address, when he was again arraigned before Magistrate Rose- hluth in the Washington Heights Court. Thursday morning. He was held in $2,500 bail for the Grand Jury. Mills was stabbed by Arnold at a dance last week following a dispute over the affections of a girl. For several days the victim of the wounds was in a critical condition at Harlem Hospital, and this week the physicians reported that he was out of danger. Waives Examination on Assault Charge Waiving the examination in Harlem Court last week on a charge of stabbing a white peddler, Daniel Mottley, cook. 23 Lenox avenue, was held in $1,000 ball for trial before the Grand Jury. In order to determine whether or not bail could be set, Magistrate Vitale asked the arresting officer to tell what he knew about the complaint. It is alleged that the stabbing occurred on Sept. 24 at 114th street and Park avenue, where Morris Jaeger, 14 W. 101st street, was selling fruit from a push cart. Mottley and his wife had made a purchase of some peaches from Jaeger and complained that the peaches were overripe. An argument ensued and Mottley is alleged to have drawn a knife and stabbed Jaeger. The latter was confined to the hospital for 10 days as a result of his injuries. PICKPOCKET STUDENT SENT TO SING SING Robert Pearson, 19, whose latest home was in Richmond, Va., four years ago, was sentenced to an indefinite term of from two to five years in Sing Sing Prison by Judge Cohn in Bronx County Court Friday following his plea of guilty to a pickpocketing charge. Pearson was looting the pockets of Thomas P. Tully, white, 384 E. 136th street, while Tully slumbered on a bench at the 16th street station of the Jerome avenue subway, on Aug. 4, when Tully suddenly awakened and found Pearson's hand in his left trouser pocket. Another hand had evidently preceded Pearson's into Tully's pocket, for $26 was missing and it could not be found on the prisoner. Pearson admitted another man was "breaking him in" in the light-fingered art. The second man escaped. WHITE MAN IN WILD AUTO RIDE IN HARLEM George Torrents, white, 28, a court clerk living in Sayville, L. L., and his two girl companions were arrested after a wild auto ride through the streets of Harlem, during which several persons were run down and injured, early Friday morning. Forty shots were fired in the wild chase. The white man when arrested was charged with assault, driving an automobile while intoxicated and leaving the scene of an accident. Herbert Maul, 100 W. 139th street, was discharged on a complaint made by his wife, Mrs. Georgia Maul, who lives at 215 W. ACIDS IN STOMACH CAUSE INDIGESTION Create 'Gas, Sourness and Pain How to Treat. Medical authorities state that nearly nine-tenths of the cases of stomach trouble involve ingestion of grape, blood, mauses, etc., are due to an excess of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, and not, as some believe, to a lack of digestive juices. The delicate stomach lining is irritated, digestion is delayed and foot sour, causing the stomach sufferer to which every stomach sufferer knows to well. Artificial digestants are not needed in such cases and may do real harm. Try laying aside all digestive aids and imitend gear from food. For example, try using Bismuth Magnesia and take a teapooful in a quarter glass of water right after eating. This sweetens the stomach, prevents the formation of excess acid and helps to prevent Bismuth Magnesia (in powder or tablet form—never liquid or milk) is harmless to the stomach, inexpensive to take and is the most efficient form of magnesia for the stomach. Bismuth Magnesia is sands of people who enjoy their meals with no more fear of indigestion. 139th street, when he was brought before Magistrate Rosenbluth in the Washington Heights Court, Thursday.

Household Hints A good substitute for a small funnel, such as is used in filling salt and pepper boxes, may be made by utilizing the corner of an envelope. Cut off the tip of the corner and you will have a funnel. To remove red ink stains from table linen, spread freshly made mustard over the stain and leave for half an hour. Then sponge off and all traces of the ink will have disappeared. All traces of mud may be easily removed from black clothes by rubbing the spots with a raw potato cut in halves. If you want your sewing machine to do satisfactory work, remember that it should be kept clean. After every ten hours of work it needs oil, but the surplus oil should be carefully wiped off or the materials will be stained. After washing hair brushes in soda and water they should be held under a cold-water faucet. This hardens the bristles and makes them last much longer than if they were rinsed in warm water. The Cook Says— When maple syrup becomes cloudy set it over the fire until it boils, then take it off the fire and cool. When cool, beat an egg into it and set over fire to boll again. Remove all particles that gather on the top and it will be as clear as crystal. Before shaking down the ashes in your kitchen range in the morning, empty on them the damp leaves from the teapot. If you then proceed as usual you will find there will be no dust to smother you, and thus you will save time and temper. To increase the amount of frosting for custards, puddings, etc., without increasing the amount of the material used, take the whites of the eggs you saved, beat as usual and drop the mixture into the saucepan of boiling water. It will instantly rise to the top and will make a large amount of very light, white frosting. Spread at once and serve. When parsley is not obtainable for garnishing, use the tips from celery or finely sliced outer leaves of brussels sprouts. Suggestions Twelve large prunes, three egg whites, three tablespoons powdered sugar. Soak the prunes overnight and stew in the same water until tender. Remove the stones. Mash to a pulp. Beat egg whites until stiff, fold in sugar and then prune pulp. Turn into a greased baking dish and bake in a slow oven about twenty minutes. Serve at once with cream, soft custard and any desired sauce. Chocolate Sauce. One cup granulated sugar, one cup milk, one tablespoon butter, one teaspoon vanilla, one cup light brown sugar, two squares unsweetened chocolate. Cook sugar, milk and choclate together until it forms a soft ball when tried in cold water. Add butter and vanilla, remove from fire and let stand until cool, then beat until creamy. Raspberry Ice. Four cups water, one and two-thirds cups sugar, two cups raspberry juice, two tablespoons lemon juice. Make a syrup by boiling sugar and water together for five minutes. Add raspberry juice and lemon juice, strain and freeze. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. OCT. 20. 1926 THE FEMINIST VIEWPOINT Her Arrival QUEEN MARIE OF ROUMANIA landed in New York on Monday, October 18. In spite of the dreary, cold day on which she first saw "the land of the free and the home of the brave," she was greeted with pomp and ceremony. Writing under the caption "Why I Am Coming to America," she said, in part: "I come to see as many of you as I possibly can. I come to thank all those who stood up for us and who helped us during the great war." When the Queen says, "to thank those," to whom does she refer? Many of "those who helped" in the great war are dead, others of them are disabled for the rest of their lives. The war knew no race, color or creed. Does the Queen realize this? Will all of "those who helped" her country, her people—though their skins be white or black—receive thanks?—T. E. B.

Splendidly tailored soft plaids, fine tweeds and mixtures in slender, straight-line models are being displayed. The lining of the coat may be of a serviceable pelt, while the collar is of contrasting fur. The vogue for black calls for street, lunch, tea, dinner, dancing, theatre and supper dresses and gowns of smart silks and velvets. Here's the way to wear them—heavier crepes for daytime, sheer fabrics for formal daytime and evening, and velvet for formal costumes in the afternoon or after six. In the hat line, try a ripple brim model. Have its crown creased in the center and tacked down like a seam. Its band should be of three contrasting ribbons. Africa has cleared up a possible dark spot in that country's record by proving that American jazz is not derived from African music.

Sara Washington Oil the Bob With the style of the bob being in vogue, the scalp really needs more attention than before. You may not have noticed it, but there is a tendency of increasing dandruff when the hair is bobbed. Unless properly taken care of the hair will have a deadened, dry, undernourished appearance. Bobbed hair furnishes a regular catch-basin for dirt and dust. The drying power of the free circulating air rapidly evaporates the natural oil from the scalp, and therefore an oil should be applied frequently. The dried natural oil produces a fine powder substance commonly known as dandruff. When IN 10 MINUTES years can vanish from your face. Make the amazing test told below. It is free.

Sylvester Corrothers Preaches Second Sermon of Anniversary Series Notwithstanding the rain a splendid audience assembled at the Roosevelt Temple in Newark, Sunday, for the second services of the anniversary celebration. The subject of the sermon by Dr. Sylvester L. Corrothers, the pastor, was taken from the words: "Our Fathers Provoked God to Wrath, and God Gave Them Over Into the Hands of Nebuchadnezzar. Who Carried Them Away Into Babylon, the Land of the Chaldeans." In part he said: "The strength of the prayers of an individual or nation depend upon the amount of honesty and confession of truth there is in them. The returning exiles in answering the inquiries of their enemies were careful to lay the fault of their failures upon their ancestors and upon themselves, thus exonerating the power and purpose of Almighty God. "These same Jews were afflicted with the belief that God had all power and would only permit such a fate to befall them only upon the principle that they had turned their backs on God. "From this story there are certain lessons which we should learn. First, that we cannot retain the favor and approval of an overinvolving God unless we live in harmony with His precepts. Second, the loss of the favor of God means the loss of the peace of soul and conscience; it means the loss of the ability to succeed; it means the loss of the respect of your friends and neighbors; it means the loss of health, and finally it means death and the loss of your soul. "This story also gives us a vision as to the belief of the Hebrew Fathers that we have the right to pray for the ability to succeed, both as a Christian, as a business man and as a citizen. And there are not any problems that affect human life but that, through the plan and purpose of God, may be carried to success. "Christianity was established in the world for one great purpose, and that is, that those who possess it might teach others how to live, and how to overcome all the crises that may arise in life." At the close of the sermon three persons united with the church, making 101 additions to the membership since the first Sunday in May. Sunday, October 24, at 11 a.m. the sermon will be delivered by the Rev. Dr. William M. Langford of Red Bank, N. J., presiding elder of the Jersey City District. The anniversary will close Sunday, November 7, when the sixty captains and twelve auxiliaries make their reports. Immediately following the annu- versary there will be inaugurated a campaign designed to break up the dens of vice that are so num- erous in the city of Newark and are leading to the downfall of so many members of the Negro race. Hundreds of religious and social workers representing both races have entered an agreement to work together in this campaign.

My back ached and I had hot flashes until I was so very nervous I smothered. "I couldn't sleep and I was never hungry, and I kept getting weaker. I couldn't stand on my feet. This was an unusual condition for me as I had been pretty strong all along. I knew that I would have to do something, and that pretty soon. "Some friend suggested that I take Cardui, and it certainly was a good suggestion, for after taking one bottle I could tell I was stronger and better. I didn't quit. I kept it up and did fine. I felt like a different person after I began taking Cardui." Cardui has helped thousands of suffering women. Sold by all druggists.

Philip Randolph, general organizer of the Brotherhood, Monday requested the services of the Board in securing a conference on wages and hours with the Pullman Company, declaring that more than 5,000 porters, or the 51 per cent required by law, belonged to the organization. Although railway legislation makes it the duty of employers to meet their employees in a representative union when requested to do so, the Pullman Company has refused even to acknowledge the letters of the Brotherhood requesting a conference, according to Brotherhood officials. The Railway Mediation Board, to which the Brotherhood has applied for aid, was created by the Watson-Parker Bill of last session of congress. The bill provides that the two parties to a railway labor dispute shall meet each other before the Board if either applies for a conference. If the two parties fail to agree, adjustment, mediation, and arbitration boards may be set up to settle the dispute. One of the principal demands of the union is its recognition by the Pullman Company as the authorized representative of the men, supplanting the Employee Representation Plan of the company. A conference before the Board will compel that recognition. Public Condemns Aiken Affair Prosecution COLUMBIA, S. C., Oct. 18.—That "everything possible will be done to bring to justice the members of the Aiken mob" was the assurance given this week to a representative of the State Interracial Committee by Governor Thomas G. McLeod. "I am giving the matter my constant attention," continued the Governor, "and will make a thorough investigation. I feel assured that something can be done and is going to be done." The lynching, which was the first in this State in two years, is meeting with, universal condemnation on the part of leading people, business bodies and the newspapers. The Charleston Chamber of Commerce immediately passed the following resolutions: "Resolved, That mob violence cannot be excused under any circumstances; that the lynching of the three Negroes in Alken County is of an exceptionally brutal and GUESTS AT LOCAL HOTELS Guests registered here are: Dr. S.

"That such occurrences not only outrage the laws of God and man, but bring shame and disgrace to the State and county involved. "That all good citizens should strive to create a strong public sentiment which will protect our State from such tragedies and cause public officials. State and county, to feel that no measures taken can be too strong to bring the criminals in such cases to the bar of justice." Practically every daily paper in the State has denounced the affair in unmeasured terms and is demanding that members of the mob be apprehended and brought to justice. In this connection the Columbia State says: "Some of them can be discovered. They can be apprehended, indicted and tried. They can be tried in some other county where their friends or fellow-murderers would not get on the jury."

On this point the Charleston Post says: "Arrests and prosecutions should be made and nothing short of such will suffice. If there is to be none of these, at least there should be no pretenses. Gestures should be omitted." The Charleston Post says: "South Carolina has been free, for a long time, of the disgrace of mob vengeance, but this triple killing in Alken County offsets the good record and cannot fail to bring condemnation upon the State and depression upon all right-minded among its citizenry." Of the mob, the Spartanburg Herald says: "There is a great company of men down in Alken who know they are murderers. And, knowing that, they have destroyed their own self-respect. They live and die knowing full well that they are not worthy to associate with their wives and children, and are entitled to no respect from decent people. They have fixed their own penalty." 1314 RODMAN ST. BE AT.

Edmund Folkman, white, 50, of Pacific and Union Hall streets, and George Miller, 42, of 142-66 Rockaway boulevard, are the men arrested. Folkman's place is right in front of one of the largest public schools in Jamaica, where hundreds of children of both races attend. It is alleged that the better class of Negroes living in the vicinity of this place long have protested among themselves at the apparent immunity of what they alleged to be one of the most thriving "hooch joints" on Long Island, camouflaged as an ice cream and candy store. EIGHT Further down on Pacific street, approaching the cracks of the Long Island Railroad, many tough and desolate characters have been in the habit of congregating, and it was thought that on account of the school at least, within a radius of two blocks no business of questionable character would be allowed by the authorities. At the most unseemly hours of the night, it is said, many characters whose presence would be more appropriate in the confines of South street, where the coal and lumber yards darken the toil smelling and swampy neighborhood, have been emerging from the vicinity of Union Hall and Pacific street, "stewed to the gills." Women, it is further claimed, have been known to be approached with the suggestion that good liquor could be procured where it was thought only soft drinks, candy and ice cream held sway. When the detectives raided the candy and ice cream store of Folkman they found alleged wine, Scotch whiskey, gin and alcohol, all valued at $5,000, in the back room of the store and cellar. Miller was arrested at his malt and hop store after the detectives found about $200 worth of alleged home brew. Samples of the liquor found in both places, were sent to the city chemist for analysis. case. It is said that the better class of both colored and white people will watch with a great deal of interest the outcome of the case in the South Jamaica District as it is claimed that a public school should at least be surrounded by protection from influences which would have a bad effect on the children of tender years. It is reported that colored agents of the prohibition department will be sent into the district to attempt to get the hospital sellers, which included a cement drug store which, too, has apparently been immune from indolence despite the facility with which the stuff is dispensed to any seeking it.

Grand street and Smith street stores, has donated the kindergarten in perpetuity to St. Peter Claver's School, at 5 Jefferson avenue. It was his affection for the little colored children of Father Quinn's flock, as well as his attachment to the memory of his mother and that of his late brother. John L. Whalen, that brought from him this generous expression of feeling for the children and their mothers. He realized that many poor mothers could keep their homes together if they could obtain part-time employment. The children are left at the school in the morning and called for by the parents or their larger brothers or sisters in the afternoon. The institution will be known as the Whalen Kindergarten. It is conducted by the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, whose mother house is located at Cornwells Height. Pa. Brooklyn Y. W. C. A.

White Baptists to Be Guests Long Island Baptist Association at Concord Church to Celebrate Sixtieth Anniversary For the first time in the history of the colored Baptists in the city of New York the Long Island Baptist Association will be the guest of a colored church.

This was the first time in the history of Negroes in the state of New York that one of their number had been so honored.

Colored Couple In From Liberia Not Much of a Place and Full of "Gyp" Artists, They Say Liberia proved a horrid disillusionment to Tom and Texana Arter, a colored man and wife from Texas, who returned to America "broke" with their child, Axmid, on the steamship West, destined and American West Africa line, now docked at Erie Lake in Brooklyn. Tom and Texana started from Texas six months ago. They had saved money for six years, and had dreams of a country estate in the West African kingdom, where their race is supreme, and where, they were informed, land was gloriously cheap. "Liberia is as full of gyp artists as some cities in America," said Joe Miner, chief officer of the "West Humhaw." "Poor Tom and Texana had spent all their money before they could even find a satisfactory place to stake out their house lot. Farms Hard to Get." "Liberia, to tell you the truth, is really much of a place for homesteaders. It's strange, when you think that Negroes whose ancestors came from that very region are now better adapted to North America, than to Liberia. "It's hard work, in fact, it's almost impossible to fix up a farm over there. Some of their colored friends advised them not to make the trip. The friends had been over there, but had themselves found it best to come back. "We picked up Tom and Texana at Monrovia, one of the chief ports of Liberia. Tom was seasick most of the way back, and we had rough weather indeed." Rainey Wins Big Award From Overseas Shipping Company James S. aRiney of 18 Fleet place was awarded $7,500 by a jury in the Supreme Court a few days ago in his suit against the Overseas Shipping Company for injuries received while working at Pier Four, at Erie Basin, March 5, 1922. Mr. Rainey, who is a man advanced in years, was working on a lighter at the pier when a case that was being hoisted fell from the holster and struck him. Both legs were crushed and it was feared that he would not live, but skillful medical attention brought him out of the pier. The Overseas Company bitterly fought the action when it was instituted, four years ago, but Attorney George C. Wildermuth of 188 Montague street fought just as hard and, on October 5, the jury decided the case in his favor. The company decided not to appeal and settled last week.

LOCAL AND LONG DISTANCE MOVING Piano Moving and Electric Trucking 46 PUTNAM AVENUE BROOKLYN, N. Y. Storage Shipping The following is a condensed report of his address: There is a new Negro in the land. Possessing nothing at his manumission, he is now worth two billion dollars. Numbering four million at emancipation, he has now increased to twelve million. Set free practically illiterate, he has wiped out eighty-five per cent of his illiteracy. Connived formerly to a single section, he now lives in every part of the republic. He is new in his outlook. The exigencies of the world war produced the economic opportunity that released the Negro from the camp conditions of the South. Conspiring with this we the suppression and oppression of the southern situation that inspired the Negro to seek opportunities of other sections. In addition, there was the long-pent-up desire for realization in the American democracy. The twelve million are in a process of renewal. He is new in his position. Once a debtor, he is now a contributor to the national wealth. Hardy in his physical strength, he brings his muscle of steel to bear in the tasks of subduing nature. Mentally alive, he contributes his growing intelligence to prevent the menace of an illiterate immigrant labor group. Patriotic to the core, he may be expected to maintain his record for national loyalty in an aristocracy. Musical in temperament, he was produced the only American musician and his contribution to poetry, song and story is yet in its infancy. Incredibly religious, he is to bring a new contribution to Christianity and thwart the menace of materialism in the hour of our prosperity. The Negro is new in his attitude. He is proud of his race, his color and his hair. He seeks not favor but a fair field; not alms but opportunity; not ploy but a square nose; not coddling but co-operation. Let the Negro city in the world stand largest in things, and she will solve the problem of race not only for America but for all the world. New Order Now Organized by Well Known Brooklynite The Grand United Order of Antelope of America, Inc., which is the newest fraternity in this part of the country, has invaded Brooklyn, and, from all indications, it will be a success, according to Mrs. Bessie J.

In an interview with a representative from his paper, Mrs. Darden told how she and a few other men and women had been able to get nearly 200 men and women to join their fraternity within two months after they had explained the principles and objects of the order. Men and women can join the same lodge. As evidence as to the growth of the order Mrs. Darden tells how nearly three thousand people have joined the lodges in Manhattan.

The Negro's money or his labor plays an active part in fostering the welfare of the large money-making industries of the nation. Therefore the object of "The House of George" is to urge our people to become shareholders of the industries which they are supporting from day to day. It has always been said that "5% of the people of this country are the money kings, the absolute rulers, holding the other 95% in virtual bondage as binding as though autocracy were the accepted form of government." We hope our readers will appreciate that the cause of this condition is due to the tardiness, on the part of the larger group to become participants in the earnings of the large industries of America.

While the claim of Senator Wadsworth for support is strong with all of the Republican and independent voters of the State of New York, it is especially compelling upon the colored citizens. The name of Wadsworth comes from a heroic line of abolitionists. His grandfather, General James Wadsworth, was a prominent member of the State of New York in 1862. Secretary Seward, Horace Greeley, and Thurlow Weed, who, at that time, had not been fully baptized with the spirit of Negro freedom, opposed his nomination because they feared that he would make opposition to slavery the chief plank in his platform; but no whit deterred by his stance, he won the nomination and went down to glorious defeat for this righteous cause. He was killed in the battle of the Wilderness. His father, James W. Wadsworth Sr. entered the Union Army as a private and rose to the rank of Brigadier-General. Senator James W. Wadsworth Jr. left Yale College and entered the war with Spain. It is not of record that any one of his line has ever deviated from the sound doctrine of human rights. While the sun is too high up the hill of progress to expect the Negro to be eternally shackled to the good deeds he would be in days gone by, yet it would be in gratitude to fall to show a substantial appreciation for the devotion to human rights handed down from father to son for three generations by the members of his family. In a striking utterance, continued in a letter written several years ago to the Hon. Chas. W. Anderson, Senator Wadsworth gave expression to the faith that is in him: "The most precious thing a human being can possess is self-respect. No matter how low or low a person may be, their life may be, he cannot be happy if he does not possess this treasure.

Today the services operates from eighteen centers located in Manhattan, the Bronx and Richmond. which robs human beings of their self-respect is gudity of the meanest of cruelty. To hurt a man's feelings, to humiliate him, to discriminate against among men, is to wound his very soul. I am opposed to all men and all laws and all regulations that humiliate decent, law-abiding human beings. The taints are white or black; they are entitled, all of them, to decent treatment. There is too much of the spirit of compulsion these days, too many attempts by some people to thrust other people down and hold them down. Free America should not tolerate this spirit. Instead, we ought to help those who have been handicapped, lift up those who have given up, and give everybody to understand that this is indeed a land of email opportunity. As for the crime of mob violence so often perpetrated against our citizens of the Negro race, they are a blot upon the good name of the United States. The people who perpetrate them and the public are allowed to allow them to happen, should be punished to the full limit of the law. If existing law is not adequate, it should be made so. If under our system of government, the Federal Government can lend its weight and strength toward stamping out this disease, it should do so. In this declaration, Senator Wadworth shows that he stands for the enactment of righteous laws and the righteous enforcement of such laws when enacted. This principle constitutes the chief issue not only affecting the Negro but the entire American people. The nation must destroy laziness, or lawlessness will destroy the nation. Senator James W. Wadsworth abundantly deserves and should receive the enthusiastic and unanimous support of the Negro voters in the State of New York who have it in their power to contribute mightily to the right solution of the great issues which now devolve upon America and upon the world. VOTE. FOR WADSWORTH. Music Played on Can Soothes Magistrate's Heart His "musical" skill with a gallon tin can was the means of obtaining a suspended sentence for James Williams, 30 years old. of no permanent address, last week, when he was arraigned before Magistrate Louis B. Brodsky, in Night Court, on a charge of soliciting alms, Williams, a street "musician," was arrested at Thirtelf street and Fifth avenue by Detective James Haven of the mendicant squad. A small hole had been punched in the side of the can and another two inches in diameter had been cut in the top. The "music" according to Haven, was produced by blowing through the smaller hole and regulating the tone by the hand on the larger hole. Haven told the court that the resultant "music" sounded like a trombone. The Magistrate ordered Williams to demonstrate his art, and the latter obliged with "Nearer My God to Thee." Halfway through, the Magistrate stopped him, told him that his music had earned him another chance and released him on a suspended sentence, warning him to stay off the main thoroughfare in the future.

Five years ago an experimental nursing center, under the supervision of this settlement, was started at 2303 Seventh avenue. A supervisor, an assistant and four nurses were stationed there. Today this center—the Urban League Center as it is called—is located at 202 West, 136th street. There a supervisor, an assistant and 22 nurses try to meet the health needs of Harlem. Miss Mary B. Scott, white, 323 West 23d street, is the supervisor. A year ago Miss Marion J. Pettiford, 229 West 128th street, was appointed assistant to Miss Scott. Miss Pettiford, a graduate of the Lincoln Hospital, took post-graduate work in public health at Columbia University. Of the 22 nurses at the center, three are graduates of Harlem Hospital, two are from Freedmen's, and 17 are from Lincoln. Anybody in the Harlem district, which extends from 125th street and Third avenue to 135th street and Edgecombe avenue, may have the care of a nurse by merely asking for one. In short, a telephone call brings a visiting nurse to your bedside. Charge? Ordinarily, a visit costs $1.15. No worthy case, however, is ever turned away because of lack of funds. Through a contract with the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company hundreds of these cases are paid for. "We teach anything we know how to do," said Miss Pettiford as Urban League in 'Wind-up' of $350,000 Campaign The Three Year Sustaining Fund Campaign of the New York, Brooklyn and National Urban Leagues, begun last summer and postponed until fall, will reopen October 25 with a force of volunteers in an effort to complete the task of raising $350,000. At a meeting held on Wednesday evening, October 13. It was announced that $16,37.45 has been raised in Harlem. Everybody pledged themselves to see that the full quota is realized. Those present at the meeting included: Msdames P. F. Anderson, A. G. Kellar. Arabella Jackson, Anna J. Robinson. Bessye Beardon, Mary E. Hubert. Viola Bird Heath, Nettle L. Mays, Daisy Graves, Edna M. Farrell, Viola Viola, Dr. Alma Mae Haskins; Misses Pearl Grayson, C. T. Downs, E. M. Hazelwood. Emma L. Moseley, L. J. Moseley, and Messre, John E. Naff, J. A. Steele, A. C. Deming, D. E. Headley, A. N. Burres, C. R. Harper and James H. Hubert. Teams of from three to five members are being formed, who will work under the direction of a captain. Only $75,000 is needed from the entire Metropolitan district to make the campaign a complete success. Among those serving on the executive committee is Walter Stabler, comproiler of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, at whose offices a special meeting is held this week to perfect plans. URBAN LEAGUE ADD ANOTHER FELLOWSHIP The National Urban League announces the appointment of a third fellowship for the school year 1926-27 in the person of Gerald E. Allen, bachelor of science in economics from the University of Pittsburgh, class 1923. Mr. Allen has studied in the Law School of the University and has been very active in the civic life of Pittsburgh. He will study at the University of Pittsburgh for his master's degree and, on the completion of his year's study, will enter the field of social work. A MASS MEETING will be held at the Reg.

A Group of Parents Listening to Health Talk THE FEDERAL MILITARY CONFERENCE she described the general work of a nurse in the home. "We take any type of case, even if the case is incurable, we teach those in the home how to care for the patient." At this center, which is second to the largest one in the city, is conducted a Mothers' Club and a Pre-natal Clinic. Expectant mothers pay ten cents a week and listen to a series of health lectures for six weeks. "Health education is very necessary," said Miss Pettiford in telling of the 4,000 patients who were instructed at the clinic during the year. "A Fathers' Club" repeated Miss Pettiford. "Yes," we'd like to have one at the center if the men in Harlem are interested in such a thing." Service the center gives, and service the center must pay for. Money, then, is the thing needed. The Henry Street Settlement is to conduct a Million Dollar Drive during the first half of November. This sum, to be largely direct contributions, is to be divided as follows: $500,000 to take care of an existing deficit and to provide a current expense fund for two years; the other $500,000 to be used for an endowment fund. In 'short, one-half of the annual budget of the settlement is now provided for by an existing trust fund. This drive—in which you are asked to help the Urban League Center raise its quota—will permit the settlement to increase its present endowment fund, and provide for the growth that is being forced on the organization. for BUYERS, SELLERS, INVESTORS No Charge for Listing.

Harrison's first lecture of a series to be delivered before the student body of the University Heights section of New York University. Limited by time, Dr. Harrison was not able to deal intensively with his subject. Following his discourse, representatives of the Student Council of Columbia University and the College-of the City of New York invited the speaker to appear before their student body. Dr. Harrison made a remarkable interpretation of the unchanging East, which was one of his salient points. He gave what he considered the falsehoods and then the truth about the East.

DO NOT MISS THE SEASON'S TREAT ADMISSION, $1.00 BOXES, $5.00 Boxes and tickets on sale at Monarch Home, 245 West 137th St. 9EN Program An opportunity to show its appreciation to a great race musical organization and at the same time enjoy a wholesome evening's fun is offered the people of New York famous Monarch Band entertains at Manhattan Casino Thursday night, Nov. 4. This is the band's annual affair and this year it will be in the nature of a masquerade ball and a Charleston contest. In order that this year's reception will at least equal, if not eclipse, all of the other highly enjoyable Monarch Band receptions, the committee, headed by Aubrey Brooks, president of the Monarch Club, making strenght of fort to make Thursday night memorable one among New Yorkers. First, they have planned the affair as a masquerade ball, and have provided three prizes, one for the most unique costume worn that night, one for the best and a prize for the most comical costume. Next will be a Charleston contest and to winner of this contest will be given some silver shirt worn by Edwin Smith, proprietor of Small's Paradise Cabaret on Seventh avenue at 135th street. A second prize has also been provided and one of the prizes donated includes a handsome electric floor lamp, the gift to the band of the Silver Furniture Co. on Lenox avenue. Entrants for the Charleston contest which is free, should send their entries to Adrienne Brooks, 3 West 135th street, and all entries must be in by Wednesday, Nov. 2. Music lovers will have an opportunity of hearing this world famous outfit in the 30-minute concert during the evening. Two expert orchestras, one picked from the band and the other the crack Melodians, will supply continuous dance music. It is conceded that nowhere in this country is there a race band as capable as Lieut. Simpson's Monarch Band, and few bands of the opposite race excel this band, which is allied with Monarch Hole. No. 45, I. B. P. O. E. That the men might be encouraged to carry on in their work and keep the race and New York in the forefront musically, they should be erected with a band. Indications are that the masquerade and Charleston contest will be the biggest thing in Manhattan Casino this season. "Desires of 1927" at the Lafayette Next Week Chappelle and Stinnettte in "Kentucky Sue" Repeating Success of the Past Here Many will wonder if the desires cherished in the past are any different from those of the present, but it was left to Irvin C. Miller to attempt to prove that they will be more insistent in the coming year than they have been in 1926. All of which leads the announcement that Miller's new entitled "Desserts of 1822" will open at the Lafayette Theatre Monday afternoon for a week's run. J. Homer Tutt will be among the headliners with the piece and (this alone would induce us to wish the offering all the success in the world. After a mighty long absence Chappelle and Stinnett returned to the Lafayette this week in "Kentucky Sue" and from all reports are repeating the success which has usually attended them in the past. There seems to be no end of desires of Lafayette patrons for the revues and a long list of them will keep the house constantly to the fore during the regular theatrical season. UNION PRESIDENT CANNOT COLLECT YET Concert Organist Makes First Contribution Down the Avenoo "YOU need," said a friend of ours recently, "plenty of that life-saving serum to counteract the bite of snakes when you enter that thicket, but the bite and their smile the patent hypnotizing stuff under which birds just fook up and tremble." NOW this porson did not see us coming out of any theatre, and, considering that we go into all the theatres catering to Negroes in this community, the number of our friends the good Lord bless cm, as we know they mean us nothing but the best, just what the theatre was meant. TRUE. it is easy to suggest that we could have asked our intermant, but when a voice comes out of the dark on a dizzy night and the figure is hard to manipulate a motor car in traffic to locate a man you have every reason to believe what he is talking about, especially when we are our guard for fifteen years and already proved that we have added to our list of friends. OH, no. we are not superstitions at all, at all, and we refute the habit of watching our friends, as known enemies can be accounted for. We have friends in the newspaper and theatrical world whom we know would keep us as a member of the fourth estate, and we those who would say that these friends would do anything to hurt us. It is hard to pluck to hurt us. They would give us gas and see us expressly. "WELL. Tommy." we said to Thomas Johnson the other night, "how goes this battle of the motion picture operators and their opponents?" As far as the camera is concerned, we are the Avenue de Afrique, "we are still being fed comedy in spite of the tragedy of it all. And we thank the good Unseen Being that we can laugh through the dirty and beaten, in predicted for us." There is tragedy because of the apparent inability of so many of our people to understand, what we are fighting for and you-" WE cut Tom off right there, for we feared that he would include us among those failing to understand. You see, when you come under the magic of Tommy's sense of humor and we are forced to be forced to admit that you allow yourself to be caught without your gas mask at times. Tom insists that even we are not immune from the fumes that have been indiscriminately used on the western front. "HOW can you win, Thomas?" we quickly interjected, "when enough injunctions surround you to almost prevent you from being harmed, then erra, mum- hah- Let's see- No you don't, hastily said Tom. "You forget that when you dive you must come up for air (SOME TIME, thank you from our position, because you no doubt felt you were doing the best thing for us, but take heart and believe me when I say that there won't be any harm, because you no rushting to head off the time limit on that ultimatum! Not so you could notice it. I emphatically deny each and every statement tributed to me by you, and willing to meet anybody in your office and deny those things which you tell me, which sounds like seconds--you know, second hand goods; you told you by the beloved friends' of the operators." NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 20, 1926 Musical Accompaniment in the Church and Motion Picture Program Musical Accompaniment in the Church and Motion Picture Program BEING THE FIRST OF TWO CONTRIBUTIONS BY ONE IN A POSITION TO SPEAK WITH AUTHORITY By ULYSSES G. CHAMBRES IN visiting our churches and picture theatres, from time to time, one face never ceases to cause us wonder, namely, the markedly poor musical end of this service or program. Certainly, the Negro, with his wonderful progress in other fields and his generally conceded talent in this one, should be expected to tolerate only what is at least good, insolar as modern civilization, progress and musical intelligence be enabled him to conceive it. But Nance was tempting to offer a panacas for these musical hits, but rather a few suggestions that should make Since one of the biggest contributing factors in the music of both the church and the theatre is the organ, we shall begin with a discussion of that instrument accordingly as it has made for "good or evil" in its accompaniment of either the church service or motion picture programs. "Is it of all, "Yes we have no organs!" At least no fine ones. (And we are speaking of race institutions or those edifices patronized almost exclusively by Negroes.) Until just recently, with a few scattering exceptions, the best organs our churches have, whence, time-wise affairs, perhaps far more good when we but long for them they were designed. The Organists (if you could use that term) had to be emergency builders or repairers, often compelled to stop in the middle of a service to tie up some broken mechanism or stuff up with tags some pipes that were sounding overtime. More often the organist had trouble getting parts of it to speak at all. On commission of two manual one manual was certainly out of commission, and likely a part of the organ it was disabled. (Three manual organs were rarer, and served only to multiply the disability.) As for the pedals (the organ played by the reel), these served mostly as an ornament, especially in the upper octave, which to the average player was a wafer in sequence dead, by the last octave broken down. The organ was able to offer only a rumble here and there. You ask why this condition? Well, an organ is supposed to be everlasting. Everything on earth wears out eventually. Machinery not half so delicate or complicated as the organ is not only regularly inspected or repaired, but finally discarded. Machinery not so, however, is not fully church instrument. It serves and serves long after it should have been relegated to the junk pile, and the poor player is compelled to endure it as long as it will utter one note. Why don't the authorities look after this matter? The so-called "authorities" finally resolves itself into one person—the pastor; sometimes he and his board, more rarely a music committee. However, with the exception of rare instances, the group amounts to little. Music committees and committees for purchasing an instrument are usually made up of individuals to whom the wonderful art-science of music is a total mystery. This much will be agreed: the two most important factors toward an enjoyable church service are the sermon and the music. A learned, scholarly and inspiring speaker deserves musical support equally. The finest sermon can be utterly ruined by a musical background. A $3,000 pastor, a $600 organist and a volunteer choir are not relationships that can be expected to symbolize success. Nor should an edifice costing hundreds of thousands expect to spend a modest four or five thousand for an instrument. Yet these are conditions which are constantly defeating every possibility of a worthwhile musical service. We may divide the churches and consequently the organs into three classes: The old, the second-hand and the newly built. By old we mean the obsolete, antiquated affairs that have been in possession for years; by second-hand we refer to that which has been built, or newly built, in the old, the second-hand and the newly built, or newly built, in the old, the second-hand and the newly built. The old instrument we have already discussed. The second-hand ones differ from the old mainly in the fact that they are a bit more modern in construction. These instruments, however, are almost as badly in need of repair as the old ones. More often than not they have been worn out, or have been so many times as they have been so. This is, therefore, a very important part of the practice of using it. It has been sacrificed for quantity; and artistic construction is thrown to the winds for the sake of false economy. For although the initial cost of an interior instrument be less, it proves more expensive in the end, with its poor tone quality, unreliability and constant trouble, the cost of a new instrument is less. It is not the fact that it is the best, but the fact that it is the worst. The advent of better organs comes the necessity for better organists; and on this score we are almost tempted to forgive some of the former criticisms, for where could these artists be found? Very few of us have the vision to prepare and equip ourselves for something unless we have immediate or near future prospects. The particulars of the present day are, therefore, very much more or less of the particulars of the past, and, therefore, are those who plod on, studying and making themselves efficient in some particular line, when this said study does not seem to lead to some financial reward. Besides, until recently, only relatively few people considered it necessary that an organist have special training for his job. Even now we don't know whether the old, the second-hand and the newly built, are the same, or the same. How many of our church organisers understand modern organ construction or have a thorough working knowledge of harmony, counterpoint, fugue, music history, form, orchestration, voice culture and the one hundred and one things necessary; and besides are able to play himself and beautifully the masterpieces of classic organ literature? We shall not comment on the number; the figure is so small as to be negligible. And now a word about the choral side of our subject. First of all the security of capable directors and singers entails a consequent security of capable choirs and all this due largely either to a dearth of it, or in some cases, in the presence of the唱者. The way of financial reward. One thing is certain—the unpaid, hinterd in is a thing of the past. It is obsolete and impractical for high standards of musical excellence. Few trained singers nowadays who have voice and ability to use it intelligently are willing to give gratuitous service to the church. Therefore, the work of a volunteer choir must be drawn from a roster of men or less. The choir is of great importance, and the choir is a large group of singers, secure a quartet; or if too poor for the quartette, engage a precentor. Even one paid, trained singer (if he knows his art at all) is better than a mass of poor material. Help secure choir funds by big semiannual choral recitals or a series of fine organ recitals, or by any good means you can devise, and by the same means you can serve the乐团 student above the elementary stage should always be gladly awarded the privilege of the practice on the church instrument at a nominal fee. You ask finally, how shall all this aforementioned selection be made, namely, organ, organist, choirmaster and choir? The answer is, select a good organist-choirmaster and leave it to his judgment. Have the two positions vested in one person and thus make for efficient and beautiful music, and absence of discord between two temperamental musicians. Choose your candidate as you would a practitioner in any other professional field. He should have an academic training commensurate with modern standards for a cultured individual, preferably at least a bachelor's degree from a school; technical equipment in his special field; to become mark of approval from authoritative musical sources, and sufficient experience to warrant feith in his ability and judgment. All this accomplished, we will have gone a long way toward realizing a musical accompaniment of the service at once appropriate, educational, inspiring and delightfully enjoyable.

This is one of the screen's most entertaining pictures. The manner in which the boy friend attempted to win his girl friend by a set of rules found in a book produce many wholesome laughs. He finally won her—but see how he did it by coming to this theatre Thursday and Friday. Many men marry yet carry with them the same ideas they had before their marriage. This situation is remarkable and brought out in "The Gray Deeceiver" with Low Cody and Carmel Myers, which will be the attraction at the Renaissance Theatre, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, October 23, 24 and 25. The story has a Paris foundation and is an adaptation from the great stage success of that name. The searchlight of truth played on a woman's heart reveals some high-flying secrets, and many thrills.

Allan Dwan's New Paramount Picture at the Lincoln "Padlocked" One of the Best Yet Turned Out by This Big Company To those of the older generation, who view with alarm the terrifying manners and morals of the younger generation, we heartily recommend a visit to the Lincoln Theatre the latter part of this week, when Allan Dwan's new Paramount drama, "Padlocked," begins its local run. For this honest portrayal of a modern American family reveals the fact that lack of sympathy and understanding on the part of parents is driving the youth of our country to the jazz life. "Padlocked" is a picturization of the widely read Cosmopolitan Magazine story by Rex Beach. It was adapted by Becky Gardiner and James Shelley Hamilton, and features an imposing cost, headed by Lois Noran, Louise Dresser and Noah Beery. Florence Turner, Helen Jerome Eddy, Allan Simpson, Charles Lane and. Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., are among the important supporting players. The central character in the story is a lovely, high-spirited girl, who rebels against her father's narrow-minded attitude and efforts to stifle her natural ambitions, and runs away from home to seek a career on Broadway. As a cabaret dancer she attracts the attention of the millionaire society set and becomes involved in a love triangle. An unexpected crisis develops when her father demands that she return home, and the subsequent events are charged with suspense and emotional appeal. The entire production has been lavishly set, brightly and fittingly costumed, and under Mr. Dwan's direction very colorfully and smoothly produced. Receiver Asked for Movie Union Operators Restrain Payment of the $10,000 to President Kaplan Supreme Court Justice James A. Dunne signed an order in Brooklyn today restraining the payment of $10,000 to Samuel Kaplan, president of the Moving Picture Operators of Greater New York, Local 308. The order contained a clause commanding Kaplan, Max Feinberg, treasurer of the union; David Engel, financial secretary, and Frank Day, recording secretary, to show cause on October 20 why a receiver should not be appointed for the local and why the officers of the union should not give an accounting of the money passed through their hands. The order was obtained by John K. Scalsa of No. 120 Liberty street. Manhattan, attorney for Joseph Kelban, a member of the union and a score of other members, representing a minority of the local's membership. Affixed to the application for the injunction was an affidavit by Harry Bruns, of No. 1129 Fox street, the Bronx, telling how, at a meeting of the local, September 13th, there was passed a resolution voting the payment of $10,000 to Kaplan for his services in obtaining an increase in wages for the motion picture operators.

She makes her debut as a producer of a musical comedy called "Hey! Hey!" Monday, Nov. 1. Her adventure into the theatrical profession may be predicted as showing promising signs for the future if her executive ability is to be measured by the part she played in the rapid rise of Marcus Garvey. Mrs. Garvey came into the limelight with her former husband with the organization of the Universal improvement Association. She was the confidant of the self-styled "president of Africa" during his flourishing reign. She travelled with him, guiding most of his africans. The new producer's ability as a writer can be judged to a great extent by her biography of "The Rise and Fall of Marcus Garvey," which has not been released for public distribution. Only eminent critics and publishers have had the opportunity to read the work so far. If their opinions are to be regarded with any consideration, she has a definite style. "Hey! Hey!!" should have a pleasing following. It links up Africa, the West Indies and America in a delightful comedy. The play is whipped around the themes of men who are dissatisfied with their wives and are out to find another. George McClendon, popular co-director, will play opposite Sam Manning, also a popular young artist. The original dancing is expected to have a striking appeal. The production has already an eight-week booking, we understand.

Beneath towering crags and following the line of snaky canyons, the shining twin rails of the Pioce Branch of the Union Pacific wind their tortuous way toward the main line. There, in the shadows of the giant Sierra plains, the little company stayed for four weeks, with headquarters at Cliente, playing their parts and enduring the hardships of frost and rain to capture for the screen Spearman's matchless tale.

The Operators' Fight New York has let down the bars, but not too soon, for the sad experiences of the men have so soured the colored people as a whole that, in my opinion, it has created a delicate situation, for, instead of being willing to support organized labor first and foremost, it is firstly interested in the welfare of their own and then in the union. In other words, the organization is of secondary consideration. Your paper is beyond a doubt the most progressive in the field, for, though I have tried very hard to interest the colored papers of other cities in the economic interest of the colored projectionist, it was of no avail—the presence of the dime obstructing the view of the dollar behind it. I was informed that many people have the idea that a man can become a projectionist within a week or a fortnight. Such an idea is so ridiculous that it seems foolish even to comment on it. But I think it is enough to state that after a year of hard study with the theory and an equal length of time in the booth one can then file application for examination. If successful, from then on, if he wants to qualify himself for the position, he has to keep in constant touch with the writings of such men like Richardson or Cameron. In every line of endeavor you will find the shiftless, lazy individual, but you will also note that he is usually where he belongs, at the bottom of the ladder—union or no union. The colored projectionists in Europe—and I have had the opportunity of meeting a few—are men of very high calibre, and naturally members of organized labor, as the color line does not exist there, and command the respect of their comrades and employers. In a theatre in Copenhagen, Denmark, and one in Warsaw, Poland. I had the honor of coming in close contact with colored projectionists. Their equal, as far as their ability was concerned, I have not yet met. 一 It has always been somewhat of a puzzle to me to know why colored men were kept out of organized labor in this country, since they were willing to join its ranks and have proven to be loyal to the core. I am very glad to note that in this city such a condition has passed into the great beyond, never to return.

Former Tattler Man and Would-Be Miller Advance Agent Said to Be on Long Island With a picture which we have seen in many publications and which gives one the impression that Floyd Snelson travels with his cut ready for instant use, appears an article in the "Gazette," a paper published in Jamaica, L. I., which tells us that the former newspaperman is offered a job as a clerk in Foreign Service in Madagascar. Had this story appeared a few weeks back, shortly after Snelson's losing battle with a militant and apparently physically fit Philadelphia, many would have had good reason to at least smile. The physical encounter between Snelson and a real estate dealer in a city supposedly of "brotherly love" was broadcasted and the details disclosures that Floyd out-Dempseyed Dempsey as a glutton for punishment. The "Gazette" also tells us that Snelson is now "assistant manager in a local business here," that "local business here" meaning in Jamaica, which drove us to the conclusion that Floyd must be the assistant manager of another newspaper, and we are not at all surprised that he announced his receipt of a request to travel-to far off Madagascar. Which calls to mind that for fully twenty-four hours Snelson acted as advance agent for Irvin C. Miller, which is a record. Of course, Snelson in the latter capacity simply acted as pioneer for another Tattler man who had himself announced (at least twice in the Pittsburgh Courier, that paper to which we "sell" cuts, as Miller playfully disclosed when he thought it would do us the most good) as leaving this great city to look after the interests of Mr. Miller. You are right. He hasn't left yet, neither has Snelson, but if the con- Columbia Conser Columbia Conservatory of Music 368 CONVENT AVENSE, NEW YORK Between 145th and 146th Streets DIRECTOR, RUDOLF GRAU Instructions Given by Eminent Art Expert Teachers Piano, Violin, 'Cello, Voice Culture and all it Clarinet, Cornet and all Brass and Wind Inst Mandolin, Banjo, Guitar and Ukelele Harmony, Sightreading, Composition Interviews and Examination Daily From 10 A.

As an experienced projectionist, having successfully passed the examinations in New York, Chicago and Philadelphia, and also three European cities, I feel in the position to discuss the situation with some degree of authority. The colored man at the time I took my first examination in this city had considerable difficulty to get a license, and if fortunate enough in so doing, was up against a brick wall when the union was confronted. He was simply not admitted, regardless of his qualifications. This condition still exists in Philadelphia and many other American cities. Such a condition is unfortunate, but it is the logical reaction. It is only with care and considerable diplomacy that the people on a whole will give the union their whole-hearted support. The colored projectionist has in my estimation a wonderful future ahead of him in this city, if intelligence and tact are applied to the various situations as they present themselves.

DOUGLAS THEATRE neuctions of both gentlemen continue to verge on the uncertainty of the ability to withstand the storms and strifes of the newspaper world, they will yet catch up with "Red Hot Mama" and the others which will merge with the "Brown Skin Models" when the time is ripe for another big showing at the Lafayette, which, we are told, places the stamp of approval on all Negroid shows, thereby making it possible for them to be a success everywhere else in the country. Oh certainly, we knew some wiseacre would rise to ask how to account for those Sticktown shows which apparently do well before they come here. Anyway, Floyd is now honoring Jamaica with his presence, but unlike the days when he brought the Tattler to the attention of the amusement public, he is rather quiet as we have the honor of residing in the same town and did not even know he was present until his "announcement" appeared in print. All aboard for Madagascar. By the way, did Miller and Lyles present last week's show at the Lafayette or did the printer make a mistake in the type which should have read Miller and Slater?

Score is tied, bases full, and the slugger is swinging his bat. The stands are packed with fans, their eyes glued on the game. As the fans watch the pitcher uncoils, they keep an eye on the batter; bam!!! He hits it! It crashes to the shortstop or sails into the right field stands—or it comes to rest in the catcher's mitt. But still within the charmed circle are millions of fans who never held down a seat at a "world's series." In cities, towns and hamlets stretching from coast to coast and from gulf to gulf they follow the game in the newspapers, on the sports tickers, or on the bulletin boards in the theaters and crowded squares. They know the names of all the major league players and can tell you in an instant who put this man out at second and who backed into the fence to catch a high fly. Getting the news to these fans by newspaper, ticker and bulletin board is no little task. For days before a world's series game is to be played wires are being strung from the diamond to the waiting millions. Approximately 60 special wires, each manned by an operator, are required to accommodate the 6000d newspaper and magazine writers assigned to cover the baseball classic. Several of the press associations own or lease networks of wires that top the mountains, cross rivers and dip into every town with enough red blood coursing through its arteries to support a newspaper with a sports column. There are about a dozen cities which serve as ticker centers scattered throughout the country. To each of them a direct wire runs from the diamond carrying the news of the game. Sitting before a keyboard in each ticker center is a girl who puts on the circuit the messages which come flashing to her from the diamond. Each ticker center disseminates the news to thousands of tickers in the adjacent territory where it is read by part of the waiting millions. Then there are the bulletin boards. By means of them the fans see the details of the game as they transpire on the field. They see them through the eyes of a Western Union man who for years has been describing world's series games for the millions. He is Edson S. Brewster, who sits in the press box at the world's series clashes. Before him is a master key. From this key there speeds an impulse that zigzags every now and then into double, triple or quadruple waves going to every city of any importance in the United States and Canada. From important centers other impulses branch here and there like the network of a spider reaching practically every town and village in English speaking North America. Mr. Brewster is both football expert and manipulator of the master key, which flashes the events of the game from coast to coast. His fingers work with his eye. What his eye sees his fingers tick off on the busy key. What his fingers tick off goes instantly to distant cities where automatic repeaters take it up and flash it on to other cities as it wings its way across the continent. Before many of the fans assembled at the Polo Grounds or other diamonds know that the pitcher has put one over the plate, the fans out in Salt Lake City or Kalamazoo know that the umpire has called it a strike. The fans present at the game have other distractions and details of the play often escape them. But Mr. Brewster can have no distractions. He must watch the game and watch it closely and make an instant report to his invisible audience as they watch the lights flash on and off on the scoreboards before them.

Menzel Bob Douglas spring the season's surprise when he uncovered Eyre Saitch, National Colored Tennis Champion, as a member of the local five. Rumor had it that "Spess" Moten would appear with the team, and Douglas did not deny this, keeping Saitch in the background and brushing him forward at a time when it apparently did the trust good.

Munn had an idea that he wanted to draw the color line, but Phil Bernstein, manager of Carter, claimed that Carl is a Cuban, and furthermore, Munn had already met five colored boys since he started boxing and that his action was only a "stall" to keep from signing up with Carter, whom he fears. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 20, 1926 Lincoln University Lions at Practice THE FOOTBALL TEAM JACKSON A. Lincoln Quarterback DARDEN BESTED BY JACK HOOD DARDEN BESTED BY JACK HOOD Jack Hood, Great Britain's welterweight champion, emerged victorious in a close ten-rounder with Sailor Darden. welterweight titleholder of the U. S. Navy, in the main mill of ten rounds at Mitchell Field last Thursday night. It was an interesting scrap all the way with Hood holding a slight edge throughout. There was no doubt as to the Englishman's victory, as he had the edge in a majority of rounds. Each frame was a battle in itself. There was no letup from the opening to the closing bell. Hood proved himself a clever boxer and evaded all of the sailor's rushes to land a haymaker. They were in the center of the ring during the greater part of the mill, neither giving ground. Each weighed 146 pounds. Howard University "Bisons" Swamp Morehouse College Eleven by 52-0 Game a Walk-Away for Coach Watson's Boys When They Met Widely Touted Opponents in Washington Last Saturday WASHINGTON, D. C., Saturday, Oct. 16.—What had been expected to be a close nip-and-tuck battle between the Morehouse College (Atlanta, Georgia) eleven and the Howard team turned out to be a mere walk-away for Coach Watson's "Bisons" as the latter won by the heavy score of 52-0 in the game played here Saturday afternoon, October 16, in the new Howard Stadium. Howard played a largely aerial game, trying fifteen forward passes, of which eight were successful, for a total gain of 130 yards. The Howard backfield went through tackle and around end almost at will, totaling 23 first downs to the visitor's one, which was gained by a 15-yard penalty to Howard. Both teams were using the snappy huddle system of calling signals, but Howard's execution was far superior to that of the Georgians. Secure reservations early.

Morehouse came back in the second half with a line which for a time seemed much stronger than previously. For the first time Morehouse succeeded in holding Howard for downs, when Dezon, left end, got through and blocked a fourth down forward pass in Dan Brown's hands. But though Morehouse's defense had improved, they still could make no gains through the line. So they tried a forward pass, Archer to Oliver, which was successful, for 14 yards, their only real gain of the game. A little later they received a first down when Howard was penalized but they themselves were penalized shortly after, and they were forced to kick. Howard got the ball on Morehouse's 30-yard line. A forward pass from Ewell, Howard quarter, to Tyson, fullback, was successful for 15 yards. Tyson follows with a 12-yard smash through center putting the ball on the visitor's 3-yard line. Ewell carried it over as the last quarter started. The Morehouse team was now on its last legs, though still fighting desperately Howard with apparent ease was able to roll up 25 points in this last period, sending in many second-string substitutes. One of the them, Sallie, left end, distinguished himself by catching two beautifully executed forward passes for gains of 18 and 25 yards. Coles raised the stands again when he intercepted a Morehouse forward pass and ran 30 yards for a touchdown. The touchdowns in this period were scored by Ewell, Smith, Coles and Dan Brown.

HAMPTON, Va., Oct. 16.—For two and three-fourths quarters the Hampton Institute Seasiders and North Carolina State College (formerly Durham State), seasawed up and down Armstrong Field, the Seasiders apparently unable to score on one hand, and on the other the Tarheel boys staving off almost sure defeat. It was a game far below the college standard of modern football. While the North Carolina boys kept Hampton from scoring until well into the second half, it was done by playing for time; shifting and reshifting, arguments among themselves, inability to interpret signals, substitutions and the like, as often seen in sandlot football. The Seasiders went on the field a wee bit overconfident as a result of the Tarheel boys' showing in the Petersburg-N. C. State game that ended 40-0. In the backfield as a punter, plunger, passer and drop-kicker, "Bulldog" Williams and "Wild Man" Leo played steady football. Thatcher Wild Man Lee "Wild Man Lee, playing true to form, fought the opponents so a standstill from his position on the line. That wasn't enough. He went back, while on the defense, and intercepting a pass, raced, with his huge, speedy form 10 or 15 yards before being downed. Again in the third quarter, just about three minutes before its end, "Wild Man" picked up a loose funnel from the run yards, perforated for a quarterback. Baker kicked the point and the quarter ended 7-0 in favor of Hibernation. Only once did North Carolina State even look as if they were going to threaten, and that was when Harris winged a pass to Earlish resulting in a gain of 40 yards and placing them on the 20 yard line. The threat was soon eradicated and the grandstand began yelling for another touchdown. Baker and "Bulldog" Williams hit the line consistently and brought a touchdown late in the final quarter. Williams wiggled through line for 15 yards and made it. A pass from Baker to Byrd resulted in the additional point. The third touchdown also came late in the last quarter. It was made by Elmer Baker, from the line of scrimmage. He failed to kick the point. Baker played a good game of football. He is a lightweight triple-threat man that is playing the invisible Gus.

CHANCELLOR ETELAS TRA The new CELLOR E LA for 25¢ HAMPTON DOWNS CRACK CAROLINIANS Ex-Boxing Commissioner at St. Mark's Lyceum Black and White (Arthur B Minikes in the New York University Daily News) ABOUT A COLORED GENTLEMAN AND WHITE "KILL the nigger!"—it was the old story. The cry for blood tinged with the rottenest thing that God has given man—intolerance. Intolerance of race, intolerance for the man who's being licked. It was the cry of the natural iconoclast rejoicing in the knowledge that the idol has feet of clay. "Kill the nigger!"—And they who cried were unashamed. "Kill the niger!"—Twas a pean of exaltation. "Kill the niger!"—How happy they were. "Kill the niger!"—Ain't civilization grand! And the "nigger" stood and took the blows as he always has unafraid. There were a lot of people there, many many—and they heeded, and they yelled. They cried, and the theme of theirs was "Kill the niger!" And the "niger's" head hobbed just a little—just a little (for the blows hurt). But maybe it wasn't only because of the blows. "Kill the nigger!"—twas the cry of the Nordic, and the Latin, and the Slay, and the Jew—white men all. It was the cry of a superior race "Kill the nigger"—and the white man grinned—hero. The air was damp—raw; the skies leaden; and no breeze. I was uncomfortable. It was difficult to enthuse. And why enthuse? Why? Why? The white man is winning—and you ask why. "Kill the nigger." The crowd is booing. Wills, the Negro, is fighting as his robes bears fought. Clutching the white body of his opponent with one hand and flaying with the other. That is against the rules. You must hit with both hands. So the crowd boos. It is a welcome relief—for it temporarily stills the cry: "Kill the nigger." The cry for seven years the bloomer of the white man an idol. The white man's news has defeated the idol. A white champion's fears prestice to the idol. A stern boxing commissioner's decree exalted the idol. but idols have feet of clay—"Kill the nigger." The giant Negro's head is bowed still further. His beautiful body is bruised and beaten. His powerful arms are weary. (Yea, verily, he is a man.) The broad lips of Ethiopia are red with human gore. The high cheekbones are covered with the fluid that gushes from a swollen eye. And the white man is relentless. And the crowd urges him on.—"Kill the nigger!" blushsh, Washington Heights and Hunt's Point will be to work will, as if nothing had happened. But the end of the world has come for Harlem. At least the world has suspended operations temporarily. And the only people in the world who can really laugh as it, it is not ashamed of doing so has ceased to laugh. They're only "niggers"—but a heart can break—even in a black body. He's only a black fighter. But he belonged to them—altogether to them. They had nurtured him, encouraged him, fondled him—and now—"Kill the nigger!" The world had filed out of the gladiatorial area, some quickly, others slowly. One remained. His skin was black. His shoulders enormous even as the warrior who had just descended the ladder to oblivion. He must have been a splendid physical specimen but an hour before. Now his powerful shoulders were hunched most hideously. Now his head was ben, and his chest heaved and heaved and heaved. The lights went out. The big white teeth ceased to gleam. The broad lips clenched, he looked up at the black, rishriding sky—these was the dark skies if his eyes were a low or a low. The bloody canvas began to dance. The wind whistled—a low melodious whistle—and I could detect a melody: "Old Black Joe"—and my head is bending low. Then a harsh cry, grating, jeering, triumphantly. HARRY WILLS PASSES OUT (From the N. Y. World.) ONE cannot but feel the pathos of the fizzle which marked the end of Harry Wills. He occupied a curious position in the world of pugilism. Whether he could really light or not must always remain a moot point: he could mix it with the best of them; but most of us for all there is any evidence to go by, will have to take the thing on faith. But did that make any difference? It did not. Wills became famous because Dempsey refused to fight him. Becoming famous, he became a myth—the legendary figure of the arena, a hero of the strength which he delivered in huge shoulders; he acquired somewhere along the route the title "Brown Panther": even his mien was held fearsome, for it was said that he had frightened several opponents into submission by the expression on his face. And so the stories plied up until he became a colorful with all the white fighters of the civilized world afraid to enter the ring with him. ONE cannot but feel the pathos of Harry Wills.

You Can Go to War Side by Side With the Crackers But When It Comes to Play You Are Barred as Is Evidenced by the Barring of a Negro Football Player HAGERSTOWN, Oct. 18. — The scheduled football game between the Martinsburg (W. Va.) and the Chambersburg (Pa.) High School eleveens will not be played on October 23 because the latter refuses to withdraw a Negro player. And the game will not be declared forfeited, in the opinion of John D. Zentmeyer, president of the Cumberland Valley Athletic Association, of which the two teams are members, who is upholding the stand of the West Virginia team. Agreement Since 1919. A gentlemen's agreement that no Negro would be permitted to participate in any athletic event has existed since 1819 in the association, according to Zentmeyer. A permit not resulted in 1919, when Chambersburg played a Negro in a football game against the Martinsburg High School, and it was then decided by the officials of each of the teams to make a gentleman's agreement not to use a Negro in a game. Nor will the Hagerstown High School team be permitted to play Chambersburg if the Negro is used, declared Zentmeyer, who is principal of the local institution. will send his team on the field Oct. 22, and should the Martinsburg team not appear, he would lay claim to the game by forfeit, the same holding good in case Hagerstown refused to play. The player in question, Faust stated, is obligible to represent Chambersburg on the athletic field, being a bon-fide student and standing well in his studies, and in Pennsylvania, where the color line is not drawn, those in charge cannot refuse to recognize athletic ability due to color. Hagerstown Also Balks. "Hagerstown High School will not be permitted to play against Chambersburg unless a statement from Principal Faust of the Pennsylvania school is received, not to let Chase, the player in question, compete against the local team. If Chambersburg insists upon playing the Negro, I will ask that the game be awarded to Hagerstown, as the Pennsylvanians will not be biding by the rules of the league." "Hagerstown of Chambersburg stated at the meeting that he would not play the Negro against Winchester, which game is scheduled for the Virginia city but that he would use his own judgment in determining the eligibility of players who can represent Chambersburg on the home field.

Former Boxing Commissioner White in Harlem Sunday In the coming to Harlem Sunday of Hon. Charles Fred White, former State Athletic Commissioner of Pennsylvania, it is expected that much will be learned about the result of many of the recent big box bouts. Mr. White, who is an authority on sporting events, will appear before St. Mark's Lyceum, the old literary organization of St. Mark's Methodist Episcopal Church at Edgecombe and St. Nicholas avenues, 137th and 138th streets, the coming Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. His subject is "The Value of Public Men in Commanding Public Office." From this it is expected that he will be the people who of events which he has been dismissal from office by Governor Gifford Pinchot. The stand which he took against the Dempsey-Tunney bout was upon the same principle as that maintained by the New York State Athletic Commission. St. Mark's Lyeum for 43 years has stood squarely for justice and right and the correction of wrong and evil in government. It has always held the lead in bringing to the public's attention grievances of worthy men and women. Major John Lyeum, 80, will also speak while former Assemblyman Pope B.

Outweighed, the "Collegians" displayed a brand of football never before shown in Jersey City. But it was evident to the crowd that the colored lads had class. The "Collegians" had the ball in Paterson's territory the entire game with the game ended they were playing stronger than at any other time, having the ball in their possession near Paterson's three yard line. From the very outset, when Allen Jackson, playing quarter, kicked off, the stands marveled at the punt. This was the first of a series of kicks by Jackson, each outdistancing the former shot. Ted Bolden, N. Y. U. star of former days, got away in the final quarter, after having been out of the game on account of injuries, and showed class as a broken field runner. His runs around right and left end were sensational, the latter gaining forty yards, while he was almost ground grinder in the backfield. Playing at full, the old Adelphia star repeatedly carried the ball through Paterson's heavy line. Gifmer and Tunnance were very much in evidence in the backfield, and the work of the line was superb, holding the heavy orange jerseyed Paterson team off. M. Giles and J. Giles on the left wing and Coston and Brackett on the right made the openings through which the backs plonged. Harris passes to the backfield from center were perfect, and when Ammons took the team down the field on a succession of plays and end runs, in the final quarter, the crowd rooted wildly for the colored boys to come through with a touchdown. Manning was Paterson's outstanding star. At the opening of NEW YORK CITY Geo. F. Ackert, 118 W. 44th St. H. Street. 36 Amsterdam Ave. I. Berkowitz, 187 W. 44th Ave. Bloomingdale Bros.

A series of games between these two teams was to have started on October 10, but rain on two successive Sundays caused their postponement. In the line-up of the white team will be such well known stars as Lou Gehrig, first baseman of the Yankees; Frank Frisch of the New York Giants; Joe Kelley of the Chicago Cubs; Al Moore of the Giants; Mackin of the Newark Bears; Rubo Malone of Jersey City; Skim or the Yankees and Gaston of the St. Louis Browns, who will be on the mound for the first game. Because of the departure of several men from the Lincoln Giants for Cuba, the colored team has been augmented by players from several of the other clubs of the Eastern Colored League. "Red" Grier, star pitcher for the Bacharach Giants the past season, will likely be on the mound for the Lincoln. The Lucy Laney League will entertain its friends at a Halloween en Dance at The Savoy, 140th and 141st streets and Lenox avenue.

NEW YORK CITY Phone Toll Box: 212-641-2000 FOURTEEN Piccens Addresses William Pickens, paid secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, addressed a mass meeting of stitling paper box workers at the Church of All Nations last Thursday afternoon. He praised the Paper Box Makers' Union for admitting Negroes into its ranks on the same basis as white workers. "The cement of labor is better than any consideration of race or language," declared Mr. Pickens. "The owners of your factories hang together, but they want to divide you. Every white man who sets himself against a Negro worker is playing into the hands of the employers. Every black man who sets himself against a white worker is undermining his own chances of advancement." Mr. Pickens and Manager Fred Caloia of the union denounced the paper box manufacturers for the methods they are using to break the strike. An anonymous circular issued Thursday morning was the chief point of attack. The circular purported to be written by well-wishers of the union and criticized the leadership of the strike. The circular urged the workers to oust their present officials and elect new ones. Manager Caloia declared that no loyal union member would use such methods to criticize the leaders when the union is in- 1 Use Nadinola the QUICK Bleach Use Nadinola the QUICK Bleach YOULL be amazed to see how rapidly, how thoroughly Nadinola bleaches your skin.

Mr. Pickens said that this was the "usual thing" in time of strike. "Set one group of workers against another" is the motto of the employers, he said.

"The Intruder" Displayed Splendid Talent Those of you who failed to witness "The Intruder," a thrilling drama by Mary Caldwell Brunage, president of the Rush Memorial choir, and presented by the choir at the church on Thursday evening, October 14, missed a rare treat. Space will not allow me to do justice to the choir. They performed to a packed house. The members of the choir acquitted themselves with marked ability. They displayed unusually fine talent. The president not have presented "The Intruder" at one of our theatres, casinos, or large church, where New York City could acclaim the genius of the race. "The Intruder" is a drama of clean, strong morals. Mrs. Brundage, who is a playwright and director as well as an actress, deserves a great deal of credit for her splendid work. She serves as a religious facilitator for the religious home training of a Christian mother and her faith in God. She spoke of the wonderful work being done by Dr. and Mrs. Oliver, the pastor and his wife of Rush Memorial Church. Her heart's desire is to serve her God, her church and her race. Her God, her church. For engagements see the president at 135 West 136th street. —Adult.

NOTARY PUBLIC James Weldon Johnson Answers Courier "Slush Fund" Expose James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 10 Fifth avenue, with the approval of the Board of Directors, has made the following public statements: on reading the attack on the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the Pittsburgh Courier of October 9, 1920, I wondered what indulgence would had a colored editor to put himself in such a position. First, he puts himself in the position of publicly proclaiming his ignorance of the Garland Fund and its relations to the N.A.A.C.P. despite the fact that Association has sent out on this subject during the past year over vicious press releases and there were sent to the editor of the Pittsburgh Courier as well as other papers. This editor prepares the report for the Garland Fund. No investigation of the Garland Fund has been made except that a representative of Mr. Vain telephoned the N.A.A.C.P. for information and was commonly referred to the Garland Fund headquarters where figures were freely given a good faith. As to the "dissipation" of the Garrison Fund, the Fund has been expended or allotted in the express request in writing of the donor of the Fund, the Garrison, who asked that it be distributed as soon as conveniently possible. The Fund will probably wind up its affairs within the next year or two. The administration of the Garrison Fund has received the favorable editorial comment of the New York Times and the New York World in their issues of September 19, 1926. In addition to dozens of social education, labor and other causes given money by the Gerland Fund, there were gifts to eight not as stated by Mr. Vann) interprizes conducted by or in behalf of colored people. These interprizes are: The National association for the Advancement of Colored People, including The Colise; the Urban League; the Messenger; the Brotherhood of People; the Harpers; the Trade Union Committee; the Orangish Native Workers; the Virgin Island Committee; two scholarships at Brookwood College; and assistance to Professor Charles Weekly of Howard University for publication of his book on Negro Labor. After complaining in his paper, in the issue of October 8, about how much money Negroes received on unreasonable complaint, the amount spent on Negro enterprises was less than five per cent of the Garland Fund expenditures—Mr. Vann low proceeds to reverse himself in his editorial of the following fees and complaints of the small amounts allotted to Negroes. As to induce influence exerted by myself, even if I had wanted to shoot the Garland Fund, as Mr. Vann implies, I was the only one on the Board of Directors should hardly have been able to induce the other members to abide in my village, the Garland Fund having included two editors of the Nation, a professor of the University of Chicago, a prominent New York attorney, and other people of national population. There are so many absurd statements in Mr. Vann's tissue of that I cannot even discuss them all. When he says in his little article that the N. A. A. C. P. is only a name, and in his editorial refer to its "expensive and political offices on Fifth Avenue," there is at least a contradiction in the fact as presented by Mr. Vann himself. Mr. Vann's quoting "Dame Ramsay" as to salaries received by executives of the N. A. A. C. P. and quoting erroneous figures at that is indicative of the spirit of his entire article. The N. A. A. C. P. is investigated and enforced by the National Information Bureau, a national clearing house with headquarters in New York, whose verdict is certainly more authoritative than the verdict of Mr. Vann. As to Mr. Vann's exclamation about the amount of money donated by the Garland Fund to the N. A. A. C. P., one reason why the N. A. A. C. P. received $26.25, which is the total amount required for the Legal Defense and from the Garland Fund, is that when the Nexroes of this company were appalled at the cruel confronting the Sweet Lady and their friends, the Garland Fund, realizing that this one of the crucial cases involved the protection of minor injuries, stepped in with an inflow of $4,000 outright and offered one dollar for two dollars raised by the N. A. P. for the Legal De thus given for Legal Defense by the Garland Fund was determined by colored people themselves and their white friends, who raised money to meet the Garland Fund's offer. As for the statement that the Sweet defense was used as an excuse for gathering funds: The N. A. A. C. P. publicly in its initial press release of October 29, 1925, and repeatedly thereafter, in releases sent to the Courier in Pittsburgh as well as to the other colored papers of the country, explicitly announced that in undertaking a Legal Defense Fund it had in mind not alone the power to but rather issue involving the rights of the Negro. This every colored editor in the country, including Mr. Vann, knows. Far from concealing its purpose the N. A. A. C. P. proclaimed it, and here again Mr. Vann is guilty of deliberate misstatement. On December 18, 1925, a press release sent out to colored editors, including Mr. Vann, detailed expenditures on the first Sweet trial in Detroit and this was accounted for in the annual report of 1925. The expenditures of the second Sweet trial in Detroit incurred during 1926 naturally belong in the accounting of the current year and will be duly made at the end of the year. All expenditures in the Sweet trial have been authorized both by the Board of Directors and the chairman of the legal committee, who serves without compensation, and by the office of the insurance office covering every penny expended. These vouchers will be scrupulously examined and audited, as are all expense vouchers of the N. A. A. C. P, by a firm of public accountants and their report will be published in the annual report of the N. A. A. C. P, as is our invariable custom. There is remaining of the Legal Defense Fund the sum of $29,000.00, held in trust specifically for legal defense and which cannot be touched for any other purpose. The triumphant success of the Association in its conduct of its most signal legal victory for the Negro's constitutional rights Mr. Vann calls "the Sweet scandal." In the very same issue of his newspaper in which he seeks to cripple the N. A. A. C. P. by his unwarranted attack upon the integrity of its officers. Mr. Vann aks editorially that the N. A. A. C. P. come to the aid of two fellow editors on trial in Kentucky. This the N. A. A. C. P. had already done. Now as to the $2,500 appropriated by the Gerland Fund. The Courier states that this was handed "to Dr. Du Bois for the study of Negro education in South Carolina." This is not the fact. The $3,000 was appropriated by the Gerland Fund for study throughout the South and Dr. Du Bois was the one selected to conduct this survey. Any reasonable person knows that $2,500 is an (Preston News Service.) PITTSBURGH. Oct. 18—Probably crazed by Iqor, Robert Wright slashed a woman visitor in his home in Tustin street late Friday afternoon, chased his wife to the third floor of their home and, after hurling her from the window, raced to the street and, with a drawn revolver, held a mob of neighbors at bay and escaped. An hour later he slipped through a police cordon thrown around the new Tenth street tunnel, where he sought refuge. With detectives, armed with riot guns, Wright raced through the tunnel and escaped by crawling up the steep hillside on Second avenue, near Tenth Street Bridge. The injured women were taken to Mercy Hospital. Mrs. Ethel Wright, the wife of the whisky-crazed man, is said to be fatally injured. Miss Mabel Wright, the visitor, who was cut on the face and body, is also in a serious condition. FORCED TO WORK WITH BROKEN SKULL (Preston News Service.) DALLAS. Tex. Oct. 18.—Claiming he had been struck over the head with an automobile pump by an east Texas farmer and forced to pick cotton the remainder of the day in the field, a man applied Monday night at the Emergency Hospital for treatment. Physicians found he had a fractured skull and sent him to a sanitarium. The man said he is George Evans, 23, Big Sandy, Tex. BASEBALL BAT USED IN ASSAULT Charged with striking David Johnson, janitor. 245 W. 133rd street, with a baseball bat, Robert Crawford, address unknown, was held for a further hearing when he was arraigned on a charge of felonious assault Monday in the Washington Heights Court entirely inadequate sum for such a stupendous task. Dr. Du Bois has set himself to the work and has already published in The Crisis the first installment dealing with South Carolina. On the completion of his survey, Dr. Du Bois will make his report to the Garland Fund to whom he is alone accountable. The Garland Fund doubtless make this report public. It should be unnecessary to state but I will say plainly, so there can be no doubt whatever, that not one penny of the Garland Fund or the moneys contributed to the Legal Defense Fund, which includes the money expended for the Sweet defense, has ever gone or will-go to the individual profit of any member of the Board of Directors or of the staff of the C. This money is backed up by certified accounting of the receipts and expenditures of the N. A. A. C. P. There remains a word for the man who will so lower himself as to make the type of maleficous, underhanded and false attack published in the Pittsburgh Courier. Can such a man, who attacks the one organization effectively defending the civil and constitutional rights of the Negro in America, who spreads untruth about it, can such a man have the good of the Negro at heart? Can the poisonous gossip monger and falsifier who perverts his public position as editor to spread lies, pretending to have derived them as facts in an "investigation," make any justifiable claim to acting for the "public good"? I leave the answer to this question to all fair minded people, white and colored, who know what the N. A. A. C. P. has accomplished in fifteen years, who are familiar with the cases it is now fighting, and with the unremitting vigilance and self-sacrifice which alone have made possible its major achievements. Mr. Vann states that the Negro of America needs such an organization as the N. A. A. C. P. At the one organization which is actually meeting this need, he has struck. He has struck unfairly, untruthfully, meanly. He has written a more poisonous attack than has emanated from the organization in the fire history of the N. A. A. C. P. I think the colored people of America have a little account to settle with Mr. Robert L. Vann. Editor of the Pittsburgh Courier. They should examine the motives for his attack upon the N. A. A. C. P. and other organizations as well as the Garland Fund. It is Mr. Vann in view of his proved lying, and not the N. A. A. C. P., who stands on trial before the bar of public opinion. He has organized the greatest offences of which a public man can be charged with, of offences violating the commonest standards of honor, decency and regard for his race and his fellow citizens. Accidental Shot From Floor Above Hits Woman (Preston News Service.) CINCINNATI, O., Oct. 13—There were two casualties, one intentional and the other accidental, as the result of a shooting affray in Trinity Court Wednesday. William Johnson, 24, engaged in a fight with another man in front of his home and was shot in the abdomen. The man was押解 by Petroman Sutherland into the building, but he escaped by leaping to a roof from the apartment of Charles Norwood on the second door. In the place the officer found a pistol. While he was examining the pistol, with the muzzle pointed to the floor, the pistol discharged accidentally. The bullet penetrated the floor and there were cries of pain from the room below. Officer Sutherland ran downstairs to find that the bullet had struck Mrs. Rebecca Land, aged 48, in her left shoulder. Both Johnson and Mrs. Land were taken to the General Hospital, where their wounds were said to be not serious. Much interest centers around the Young Men's Division election of officers at the West 125th Street Branch, which will be held on Saturday evening, October 23, at 8 o'clock. The nominating committee, composed of Messrs. Charles King, chairman; Edmund Minnott, Harold Woodward, Oren Riley, Jacob Adams and Blanchard Baker, presented to the Division a very commendable slate of officers. The candidates for president are Charles King, Lawrence Hunt and Clarence Smith. The candidate receiving the second highest number of votes will announce the blanchard recipient. The candidates for secretary are Leroy Jeffries, Blanchard Baker and Jacob Adams, and the candidates for treasurer are Oren Riley and David Walker. THE NEW YORK Amsterdam News NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 20, 1926 Porters' Brotherhood Hold Rousing Meeting The supposed part played by the Pulman Company in the development of "two of the greatest menaces of modern organized labor, the company union and the labor injunction," was traced by speakers at the mass meeting of Pulman porters and their wives at St Luke's Hall on Thursday evening. McAllister Coleman, well-known friend of labor, and Henry T. Hunt, former Mayor of Cincinnati and member of the War Labor Board under President Wilson, traced the growth of these two evils from the strike of the "Pulman Workers' Union" in 1890, which was broken by the calling in of Federal troops at the behest of the Pulman Company, to the Employee Representative Plan of the Union. The plan of union use against strikers is not a lawful weapon" declared Henry T. Hunt, who is an eminent lawyer and an authority on labor law. "When police arrest strikers and throw them into jail for violating an injunction, they are acting illegally, and they know it." he said.

Barbre, white, a farmer, held in connection with the death last week of Jefferson Williams, a hand, was dismissed after hearing lag before Municipal Judge Miller Tuesday morning.

They declared, however, that no bruises or wounds could be found on Williams' body. They said that Williams' death was due to heart trouble, caused probably by the excitement. The Barbre claim that they had an argument with Williams, but no blows were exchanged, and that they did not know of the man's death until a warrant was issued for their arrest.

He is Lenis Blanche, a native of the island of Guadeloupe. Blanche says that in his younger days he was inclined to play truant until his father, who was a public school teacher, fired his pride by telling him it was his duty to demonstrate the intellectual equality of races. He says he never let up in his work until he won the right to sit in the lecture rooms, through which have passed most of the greatest minds of France during the last century.

All three witnesses testified that Hall and Woods had quarrelled over a truck used in transferring groceries about the place, and that Hall stabbed Woods to death with a butcher knife. Drowning, Near Riot at Revival Drowning, Near Riot at Revival "Bishop" C. M. Grace Stirs Up Things in Charlotte CHARLOTTE, N. C., Oct. 18.—The trend of sentiment, which, according to reports abruptly switched from "Bishop" C. M. Grace, Portuguese evangelist and so-called "Black Christ," was explained Tuesday by Alex West, chief of police, as resulting from a combination of a near-riot at the tent meeting last Saturday night and the drowning of Willie Jones at a baptism the following Sunday afternoon. Grace left the next afternoon presumably for New York City and in his wake he left discontented followers and legal actions to recover money alleged to be due by him. Tuesday afternoon, Tom P. Jimmson, attorney for Grace and for his chief leutenant, M. M. Madden, began suit in Mecklenburg Superior Court for the recovery of $300 alleged to be due for legal services performed in connection with the jurisdiction enforced on the city. M. B. Moore, treasurer of the "House of Praver," Grace's church organization, also was named in the suit. At the same time, attachment proceedings also were instituted against Madden as the business manager of the staff. Attachment is asked against an automobile belonging to the staff, the large tent under which services were conducted, and certain funds said to be on deposit at a local bank. The near-rise was disclosed for the trial Tuesday. The Chief West told of the activities of a heckler at Grace's meeting Saturday night. The chief said that Grace, in the course of a "sermon," declared that he "could do more than Christ." This statement was disputed "right out in meeting" by Sam Cannon. He was of such light complexion that it was thought he was white and the crowd surged around him with soft drink bottles in their hands, the chief explained. A call was dispatched to the chief quarters by the deacon of Chief West and two dejective hurried there. Chief West said that at first he thought the man was white, and for a time it appeared to be a dangerous situation. Cannon, it was said, was intoxicated and he was arrested and taken to police headquarters. On top of this incident came the drowning Sunday afternoon of Jones, a deacon in Grace's "House of Prayer." These events, according to the police chief, evidently had their effect upon him. Jones was in the waters at the time of Jones' drowning, but he made no effort to rescue the sinking man it was said. At any rate, Grace suddenly announced his intention of leaving Charlotte and planned to leave early Monday morning but missed his train and finally departed during the afternoon. Mr. Jimison said that he was starting the proceedings against Grace and his lieutenant because he fears they are preparing to leave the State. He said he understood that Grace planned to return to Charlotte before going to Winston-Salem to conduct a meeting. STEEL CITY BANK TO PAY 50 C ON DOLLAR (Preston Newa Service.)

It was Senator Pat Harrison who led the bitter fight against the confirmation of Judge James A. Cobb, whom President Coolidge appointed to succeed the late and lamented Judge Robert H. Terrell.

Opportunities on Farms in Michigan Devision of Negro Welfare Encouraging Agricultural LANSING, Mich., Ock—In keeping with that part of the program dealing with the rehabilitation of Michigan farm lands, the Division of Negro Welfare and Statistics is announcing the wealth of opportunity afforded Negro farmers in locating in various agricultural sections of the State. The steady decrease in the number of operated farms and the continual stream of farm folks cityward, is having its effect in both avenues of life. Each fall finds a greater number of vacant farm properties and a larger age of unemployed. In the latter, because of social lines, the Negro suffers more severely than the white workman and it is the hope of the Division to help the Negro who has had agricultural training in securing a fuller measure of independence by taking over one of the many attractive offers to be found. It is pointed out that the fall of the year is the ideal time to consider these locations as that season of the years marks the movement from the farm, with many farmers eager to rent or sell their property after the crops have been gathered and disposed of. For the winter months offer the opportunity of establishing and preparing for the spring sowing. Although the Division of Negro Welfare and Statistics is not a selling agent in any sense of the word, yet listing of available properties has been made for the sole purpose of being of service to the Negro group in the connection. It also serves as a guide or adviser to the prospective purchaser who wants familiar with Mississippi soil. The Division is inviting the inquiries of any persons who may be interested and letters directed to the department, addressed to Lansing, will receive immediate attention.

Ocean Heights Estates, Mr. Camner, manager. American Labor Backing Porters The American labor movement is standing four-square behind the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. This fact is becoming more and more unassailable as endorsements come in from labor groups who recognize the importance of the organization this key group of co-workers. He staring the willingness of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen "its grand lodge and officers to assist in every honorable way the organization of sleeping car porters," W. G. Lee, president, had this in say in a letter recently: "No one realizes to a greater extent than myself the necessity for such an organization, beneficial not alone to such porters, but to organized labor workers, to experience more than 20 years of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen convinces me that such an organization would be very beneficial to all other labor organizations in any way connected with the handling of the railroad transportation business." A letter pledging support has also been received from McLennan, manager of Lomotive Firemen and Engineer Magazine. He says: "I deeply sympathize with the Pulman porters because of the unfair wage and working conditions under which they are employed and I am very desirous of seeing effective work done eager to aid in the building up of the highly efficient organization of Pulman porters—one that will represent every porter in the service of the company." The engagement was staged as an experiment to demonstrate that gases produced by the chemical warfare service have unknown peace-time value: The depot warehouse selected for the test was overrun with moths and rodents who were ravaging the thousands of dollars' worth of blankets and other supplies stored there. In the mopping up that followed the attack it was found that the "enemy" not only had suffered 100 per cent fatalities, but that the gas also had destroyed the moth larvae. WEST SIDE AUCTION CO. JUL.

GOVERNOR SMITH, who is a Tammany Democrat, is serving his third term as Governor and has had ample time to ender whatever service to the State he capable of rendering. He probably knows this and were it not for the fact that he has an insane ambition to become President, would gladly give some one else a chance at the office. It is here that Smith's re-election offers the greatest menace to the Negro. He is a cool, calculating politician who will let nothing stand between him and his desire to be named by his party for the Presidency. Needless to say, he would as readily sacrifice all of his professed principles of fair play and a square deal for each and every citizen to become the Presidential nominee of his party, as he changes his hat or coat. Even in this State he has not lived up to these promises, as witnessed by his failure to take a stand in the Dempsey-Wills fight controversy and his failure to recognize the Negro's capacity for appointive office. IN NATIONAL POLITICS, the Democratic party is dominated by the Southern element and once in Washington, either as Senator or President, Smith would become the spokesman of that element. He knows how to lead a mob and the South would call upon him for this service. We know from past experiences with Democratic Presidents what that would mean — more humiliation, more discrimination, more segregation. REPRESENTATIVE MILLS, we firmly believe, has unselfish motives in seeking to become Governor of the State. He did not enter upon a political career for what he could get out of it, but for what he could put into it—his service, his courage, his educational advantages, his wealth. Law-abiding Negro citizens in the district which sends him to Congress speak highly of him. The legislation he has fostered in Congress has been as much for the benefit of the black man as for the white man. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Cohen Praises Wadsworth To the Editor of The Amsterdam News. Dear Sir: Not being a citizen of your State I trust you will pardon me for writing you on a matter which it might appear should only be interesting to the citizens of your State. The subject of my letter is such that I have no hesitancy in believing to remain silent would be doing a grave injustice to a deserving Republican. The voice and vote of a U. S. Senator has its effect not only on the citizens of his State but affects the citizens of every State in the Union. This was evident when my name was before the United States Senate for confirmation as Comptroller of Customs of the Port of New Orleans. The two Democratic Senators from my State opposed my confirmation, and resisted the tradition of the U. S. Senate by my "personal objections" to my confirmation. It has been "Senatorial Courtesy" to always recognize this "personal objection" and oppose the confirmation of an appointment when such is made.

Church Needs to Awake" WE BELIEVE the editorial published in The Amsterdam News, entitled "A Rusting Machine—The A. M. E. Church," was written in the interest of the African Methodist Episcopal Church and in the church in general. There are, however, from our point of view, some mistakes in the editorial that are quite natural, since the editor does not pose as an authority upon the inner workings of the church. The membership of the A.M.E. Church is given at nearly 600,000, and with 6,900 churches, whose estimated value is $8,320,28,400. These figures are those that are currently passed around. It would have been a just criticism had The Amsterdam News said that the African Methodist Church has not yet had the courage to count its souls—its membership—while it keeps accurate account of its dollars. We place much stress on increase in finance, but none on increase in members. We cannot agree with our good New York editor that the African Methodist Church has been "seemingly losing its spirituality by encouraging corrupt leadership, and consequently losing its usefulness to the death of Bishop Turner." The general charge of corruption, etc., has been more largely scattered abroad in the past ten or fifteen years than it has ever been. This is due to two facts. First that the laymen of the church are demanding a higher type of leadership, and are less inclined to look over the faults of the past. It does not mean that the church is worse off than it was, the way it is being judged by the higher grades and to "too the mark" as never before. Our personal belief is that in its bishops, its ministers, and the officers of the church, the African Methodist Church is today stronger, not only numerically and financially, but morally and spiritually, than it ever was. There are not the mountain peaks of leadership as the past gave us, because in those days a man of moderate education was a great oak in a forest of comparative ignorance, while today a much higher training is not looked upon with so much awe because the general plane of intelligence and education in the race is higher than ever before. Fifty years ago, a man like the secretary of the Baltimore Annual Conference, and a Doctor of Philosophy, who was a verset, would have been looked upon as a monstrosity, and would have been accorded a leadership, which today he must contend for, because there are others who approximate his class; and because we are more used to education. We would not be casting reflection upon some of the great leaders of the past if we should say, that if they stood today with the men of today, they would not be leaders such as they were. We hear a great deal about greed and selfishness. The Editor has spent 25 years in the ministry of the church: for 20 of these years he has been on the inside to a large extent of the working machinery of the church. He has also been closely connected with Negro business and Negro fraternities and Negro newspapers. He is one of the founders of the only Negro Trust Company in the North. Its history from the mining, and has been brought in close contact with Negro business. And he can bear testimony and give abundance of support to the fact that in the matter of greed and selfishness the Negro minister is a mere novice. Much of the criticism of the church is based upon mere fealousy and given by men who would, if they had the opportunity, use the church for their selfish purposes. If the facts are carefully studied we would see that the reputation which many try to put upon the minister for greed is not deserved. Indeed, there is no class of people that are unselfish service that the Negro preacher is giving, and are getting less of material gain out of it. Any young real estate dealer out of it school can earn more money in a year than a bishop. The Negroes who serve the movements for the benefit of the race, are largely the church people, and the A. M. E. Church does not take any back place. There is hardly a movement originated anywhere for the good of the race but that its leaders do not go to the church, and particularly to the A. M. E. Church. And why do they go? Because they Urban League's Report on Industry By R. R. WRIGHT, Jr IN THE CHRISTIAN RECORDER. more of public spirit, and less of greed, and less of selfishness than they will find anywhere else. If you will read the past issues of the Christian Recorder you will see that a letter was sent out for aid to Florida sufferers. Two hundred letters—100 to business men and 100 to churches—were sent. If the churches had been dominated by greed and selfishness they would not have responded to it to Florida, and as they did, the truth is that while the business men gave but $20, the churches have given over $400. And this is typical. We ask our friend of The Amsterdam News to examine carefully the church. Do not hold the whole African Methodist Church responsible for the misdoings of one or two of its members. In a great organization like ours with 600,000 members, and 6,900 churches as the News says, it is not possible that all of them will be perfect. There is some good, some selfishness. Jesus Christ had a greedy disciple. But we venture to state that when it comes to character, unselfishness, interest, no institution yet exists that loves people and does for the people without money and without price as much as the church does. It may be true that in New York City some of the A. M. E. Churches play little or no part in the social and economic progress. No one calls their attention more to this than the Christian Recorder. But we will say for our New York Churches that in our leading pastors there, Drs. H. K. Spearman and E. E. Tylter, we have two of the most cultured, consecrated and clean-characterized men to be found among men of any race in America. Give them time enough and support and they will do their share in the moral and civic improvement of their communities. They always have done so, wherever they have been. In the great political movement, it was an African Methodist Church general officer in New York who came out to first start the campaign for Negro congressmen. It was not selfishness on his part, but it was because he knew that somebody ought to start; knew that he himself would never be elected, but that he might inspire the people to contend for what they should have and what is right—a Negro congressman from New York. Our belief is that while the Negro Church is not in politics, that all over this country the most independent and aggressive political asset of the race is in the Negro churches. If we take the great social movements among the people, we will find the church foremost. There is no group of women in America that does more for social uplift than the missionary societies of our churches. Though they do not get the advertisement that club women get. If you will take the club women's work and the church women's work, you will find that more substantial work is done in hospitals, in schools, in giving scholarships, in helping the sick, the widowed, the orphaned, etc.—in doing work for the uplift of the community than the club women ever thought of doing; and we do not mean any disagreement of the splendid work of our women's civic clubs. But we ask ourselves why does The Amsterdam News make the statements that it does? Our belief is what it is not to injure the church, but to stir the church up, And the church needs stirring The inordinate exodus of Negroes from the South is recent years is again being felt in the cotton areas of Arkansas, Texas and Missouri. The universal movement to the cotton fields, though vigorous and continuous, does not supply the demand. The present wage of $1.50 per hundred pounds and board—the average wage paid throughout Missouri—will doubtless be increased to secure a sufficient supply. There are reports of daily movements of Negroes to Arkansas, where cotton stands unplucked and wasting. Agents from several organizations have been seeking the return of Negro families from Chicago. Though excursions are run frequently to encourage the movement, scant success has been achieved. The cotton seed oil mill of Pitkin Bluff, Ark, have added 50 colored workers to their regular force. Movement to Florida. From parts of Georgia and South Carolina large numbers of Negroes went to Florida to rebuild the regions devastated by the recent hurricane. Labor Unions. A growing sentiment within the ranks of organized labor to organize Negro workers is no LETTERS up. The great reason it does not have the particular prominence in its leadership that it had years ago, is because the church leaders do not stand out in the general affairs of our society as they once did. In the beginning the preacher was business man, political adviser, in some communities legal adviser, medical adviser, employment agent, etc. Now we are developing laymen who specialize in these things and the minister is more and more confined to his particular vocation, the saving of souls, the moral and spiritual leadership of the community. There is considerable unrest among the people because the education of the minister for this leadership has not kept pace with the education of the people in general. While there are thousands of poorly equipped churches and poorly trained ministers, who when they do some good that ought to be done, have a genuine demand for better equipped ministry. The thoughtful Negro is not against the church but wants the church to be more powerful. This can be accomplished only by a better prepared ministry. The thoughtful lyman wants the minister as well prepared for his work as is the doctor or teacher or lawyer for his work. The African Methodist Church as a general organization does need, as the Amsterdam News intimates, to awake to the opportunities that are about it. As a matter of fact, there is no organization which can do for the people what our church can do; and it is unfortunate if we do not do it. We do have a wonderful machine—a great machine which we find cannot be run effectively except with efficient men, men of training and intelligence, and inbued with the spirit of service; who have a passion for racial and moral uplift and the courage to go forward to higher things. It is very gratifying that the best thinking among the Negroes in this country are in sympathy with the African Methodist Church. There are thousands of Negroes who would not be a member of any church whatever, who would have turned their backs on Christianity but for the African Methodist Church; and this church owes it to the people to orighten up its machinery, to oil it up, to get it in the best working order that it might keep the leadership of the Negro race which was committed to it in 1816 when Richard Allen and his co-workers started on this journey for Negro manhood. We do not say this in a narrow denominational way; we do not give it as boast, because we believe that all Negroes, no matter what their denomination, should have the same destiny; and that the traditional things which once separated us separate us no more. There are no vital differences whatever between a Baptist and a Negro Congregationalist, and a Negro Episcopalian, and a Negro Methodist. They all practically have the same aspiration; and among them are the same kind of unselfish and God-fearing leaders, only the Negroes because of its age, because it was first in the field and because of its splendid organization has been in this leadership; not to monopolize it, but to share it with others. If we can keep our place as No. 1 in this class, we must not think hard of what men like the writer of The Amsterdam News say, but whether they are right or wrong, we must study their sayings, weigh them well, and whatever truth there is in the criticism they give, benefit thereby. country. In Philadelphia, where 2,500 tobacco workers are employed, efforts are being made to secure their membership. In Hot Springs, Ark. it is reported that the change in union sentiment toward Negroes is "noticeable among bricklayers." In Columbia, S. C. more Negro plumbers and electricians are at work. These are two trades where rigid union restrictions have greatly interfered with the granting of licenses as well as employment of Negroes. In Chicago an electrical workers' union has made concessions to colored electricians who seldom, if ever, enjoy full union privileges. Warlike Haiti Now Peaceful, Report Says SANTA ANNISCO Oct. 15- The Island of Haiti, once a hotbed of revolution, has been converted into a peaceful and prosperous republic under American direction, according to Dr. Elwood Mead of Berkeley, Calif., Commissioner of Reclamation, who has just returned from a visit there. Keeping Fit By E. Elliott Rawlins, M.D. THIS little tale is about a boy by the name of Edmund who ran away from home. Now Edmund was lad of eleven summers, erect, with pleasing face and manners and full of initiative. He was living with his mother's sister in one of the side streets of "Strivers' Row. This maternal aunt of his was childless, but she had manried well and had a beautiful home. Her sister, the boy's mother, had three other children, a poor husband, and poor home in Atlanta, Ca. debt was reduced $2,500,600 and public income increased $2,500,000. Dr. Mead advised in a letter to the Secretary of the Interior. High tribute to the officials who have been responsible for bringing about this condition was paid by Dr. Mead. Among these officials were: President Louis Borno; W. W. Cumberland, financial adviser; Commander F. H. Cooke, U. S. N., public works; Dr. C. S. Butler, sanitary engineer, and Knowles Ryerson, Bureau Agricultural Technique. Two years ago Edmund was brought to New York to live with his aunt in her elegant house. His parents knew the aunt was in a financial and social position to enable him to have adven tages such as contacts, culture and education; 'twas impossible for him to get those in his own paternal home. Soon after his arrival here, he found condition irksome. His aunt's home was run like a jail, or an asylum rules, regulations, direction, denials. Each and every one he be adhered to as the laws of the The report said that the first task was to bring honesty and efficiency into the administration of the Halian Government.

California's Negro Population Growing WASHINGTON. — Negro citizens of California are said to be making their presence helpfully felt along all lines. Their number is steadily increasing, and when November election day comes along this year more Negro voters will go to the polls in California than will vote in Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts or Delaware, States in which the Negro has been, presumed to have had a long lead. When, more than a decade ago, a talented young violinist, Miss Virginia Moore or Oakland, came east and played to appreciative audiences in the principal cities, the Negroes up and down the state, to that time, given much attention to the art, business, finance and professions of sunny California. Since that time, however, California and the Pacific Coast have attracted national attention. It was found that nearly two per cent of the Negro migrants of 1915, 1916 and 1917 had drifted into California, entering into employment and absorbing many occupations formerly held by Japanese. The railroad dining-car men have set up a union in California; beauty parlors have become essential; insurance has opened its wedge; homekeepers have become numerous; a Negro business league is now flourishing; has become a successfully write and independent; energetic realists have blazed the trail for ambitious settlers and home-buyers, and the Negro physician, dentist and attorney are no longer looked upon with curiosity. Colored California is growing day by day, in every way. LIBRARY NOTES The Department of Negro Literature and History, located on the third floor of the Library, is now open from 9 A.M. to 9 P.M. Here will be found interesting exhibits of art, curios from Africa and books by and about the Negro: Negro newspapers and magazines may also be found in this room and a current events bulletin board with clippings from daily newspapers and magazines. The art exhibits include some of Augusta Savage's sculpture, etchings by Albert Smith and some decorative designs by Aaron Douglas. The Bruce collection includes art and curios from Nigeria. West Africa, donated in memory of John E. Bruce, is also on exhibit here. A collection of curios from Liberia, West Africa, has been loaned by Prof. S. R. Williams. An exhibit case of source material of Negro history from the Schomburg Collection should be found especially interesting, as some of the documents date back to 1742 and 1780. The Schomburg Collection will be housed in this department as soon as it is completely catalogued. The collection of rare books loaned by George Young and those loaned by L. Latimer of Flushing are still in the department. Some of the publications in this department are: "Black Harvest," by I. A. R. Wrye; "Black Haiti," by B. Blair Niles; "Lonesome Road," Paul Green; "Primitive Negro Sculpture," Paul and Thomas Munro Guillame; "Digging for Lost African Gods," B. K. de Prokop; "Flight," Walter F.

His parents knew the aunt was in a financial and social position to enable him to have adven-tages such as contacts, culture and education; 'twas impossible for him to get those in his own paternal home.

Each and every one he be adhered to as the laws of the Medes and Persians. His aunt had no children of her own. She knew not their ways, their mine their emotions. She was a lad, a polished floor, a furnished furniture and a repressive character. She was the kind that never once put herself in the child position, never explained, but a ways commanded. Edmund found his new home different indeed. He had more food on expensive plates; moos shoes and better clothing. He went to a better and bigger school; but his aunt did not have the proper viewpoint for child training. She did not know the each child has a personality at its own, and the parent or guardian must try to find out the kind of personality which the child has, in order to be able to moll properly its unfolding character. Edmund was a boy of initiative and self-assertiveness. It was intelligent and respectful but his personality in the home of his aunt was continually re pressed. Anger increased in hate. He came to the conclusion finally that his mother's home in Atlanta was poorer but happier. In his home in Atlanta he live in "his world," but in his aunt home he lived in "her world." To a child this is a big difference So he ran away. At present his aunt is wondering why the boy left such a beautiful home. She does no recognize yet the fact that his personality was repressed and caged by the tyrannical and putitian home life which she gave to him.
