SMITH WINS BY 315,000 H. Adolph Howell CANDIDATE FOR ASSEMBLY Albert Ottinger ATTORNEY GENERAL Ogden L. Mills CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR James W. Wadsworth, Jr. U. S. SENATOR Seymour Lowman LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR Vincent B. Murphy STATE COMPTROLLER Mvles Paige CANDIDATE FOR STATE SENATE CARRIES CITY BY 470,000; JUSTICE WAGNER ELECTED Dr. Mann and His "Zoo" UNDER the forced caption, "Dr. Mann and His Zoo." the United Press (white) describes the re-entry to America of Dr. William Mann, scientist and superintendent of the National Zoo, who has just returned from a fourmonths' expedition into the African jungles. Among the other "rarities" which the scientist is said to have brought back to Boston are "Saidi" and "Jimmie," two cannibals from Africa, who, it is said, were friendly to the explorer. The United Press adds that the cannibals have "removed the rings from their noses," and infers that, otherwise, they are beginning to absorb civilization as fostered by Dr. Mann. However, this assimilation cannot have made much progress, for the press explains that the cannibals have agreed to work for Dr. Mann for twenty-four cents a day, the price of four cups of coffee. Just what two cannibals could do that would be worth as much or as little as twenty-four cents a day is beyond all comprehension. Their services would either be worth a living wage or nothing at all, according to American civilization itself. It should be either one extreme of the other; that is, unless Dr. Mann has brought these victims here for exploitation, in which case twenty-four cents per day is just about the price an exploiter would pay, either here or in the African jungles. Some of the wages in Africa are down to 12 cents a day, and African natives, not cannibals, are receiving this wage. Two African cannibals in America, however, are raised seven cents a day for psychological reasons, we presume. American people owe "Saldi" and "dimmie" something the minute they land upon American soil. They owe them, at least, a baby's chance to mature into full-sized Americans on being unwilling to do this, the American public owes it to the doctrine of mercy to send the cannibals back home, where they can live the kind of lives to which they are accustomed; which, certainly, were void of exploitation of satisfying curiosity, aggrandizement, and selfish interests. Philadelphia's Industrial Awakening UNDER the leadership of the Armstrong Association. Forrester B. Washington, executive secretary, the Quaker City has just closed a notable week in industrial deliberations and activities in behalf of the Negro worker. The problems of the increasing Negro population were finely combed out, and an inventory taken of its pressing needs. As practical results of the conference, many new placements are reported of ambitious and qualified colored workers, who are gaining the confidence of Philadelphia's industries and employers. Theoretically, the conference surprised its warmest supporters, in that the interest and co-operation displayed by the citizens and employers, white and colored, were far greater than had been expected. During the past decade Philadelphia and its environs have present (Continued on Page 7.)

Adolph Howell CANDIDATE FOR ASSEMBLY DARING HOLDUP STAGED IN 135TH ST.; 2 CAUGHT Alfred Jackson Says Two Men Pounced Upon Him and Robbed Him of $26 Suspects Denied Bail Willie Bond. 33, chauffeur of 16 East 134th street, and Henry Huger. 25, laborer were arrested Monday morning for robbery on the complaint of Alfred Jackson of 227 West 134th street. Jackson claims that the two men robbed him of twenty-six dollars. Jackson said that he was walking along West 135th street until he reached about 26-22, which is a vacant lot, with a large advertising sign bordering on the sidewalk. At this point two men assailed him. Bond, who was the larger of the two, held him, he said, while Huger went through Jackson's pockets and took the $26 which he had in his left trousers pocket. Thomas Marton, a passerby, came to Jackson's assistance and held Bond until a policeman arrived. Huger was caught later. The two men denied any knowledge of the attack, but Justice Simpson, feeling that the evidence against them was sufficient, held them without bail for the Court of Special Sessions.

Alfred Smith has been re-elected for a fourth term by a majority of about 315,000. Like a huge tidal wave, he swept everything before him, carrying to victory practically the entire Democratic State and local ticket. Yesterday's election stripped the Republican Party in New York State of practically every major office, including that of United States Senator. Justice Robert Wagner defeated James W. Wadsworth, Jr., by a majority of about 115,000. The race was in doubt until the last returns were received. Senator Wadsworth, however, ran ahead of Ogden Mills, Republican candidate for Governor. H. Adolph Howell, Republican, defeated Albert Grossman, Democrat, in the 21st A. D. Myles A. Paige, Republican, was defeated for State Senator in the 19th A. D. by Duncan T. O'Brien, Democrat. Howell was the only Negro candidate to gain office. Paige, who was the first Negro ever to receive the nomination for State Senator, carried most of the colored election districts. The vote as we go to press was: O'Brien, 4,607; Paige, 3,869. Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal, Republican, was re-elected in the 19th A. D.

Oct. 30. Three hundred Indians on the warpath against a murdered shot flaming arrows to force their quarry from a hut and then shot him to death. It all happened here and it wasn't a movie. Three bodies offer proof of the Wild West realism. The man, Jim Belden, was suspected of having robbed several Indians on the Government reservation. Robert Gillmore, Sheriff, and John McLeod, special officer, tracked Belden to a small shack. Belden opened fire and killed the white officers. The 200 Indians joined in the attack. They shot flaming arrows at the shack and soon ignited it. Belden, rushing from the burning hut, was riddled with bullets. While he still breathed he was flung into the blazing hut.

Powell was arraigned on a short affidavit by Detective. Turkheimer of the Alexander Avenue Station. Powell was arrested by Policeman Leroy Mackin, of the Alexander Avenue Station, shortly after two taxi drivers were held up and robbed in the vicinity of Jackson avenue and 142d street. The two drivers who were robbed were Isaac Kowlasky, white, 1173 Forest avenue, and William Egress, 151 W. 140th street. The description they gave of the man who had held them up tallied in all par- ticulars and led to the arrest of Powell. Kowlinsky said he had been robbed of $13 and his taxicab, and Egness said he had been robbed of $3 and his cab. Kowlinsky's cab was later found abandoned.

Household Hints To bleach white goods that have become yellow, dip them in strong blue water after washing. Let them become very blue, and then hang out to dry. They will be thoroughly bleached. Unseasonable clothing should be put away in perfect order so that it will be ready for wear when wanted. These clothes should be thoroughly cleansed and repaired. To remove wallpaper, use one covering tablespread of saltpeter to one gallon of hot water and apply freely to the paper with a brush. The water should be kept hot and applied several times. The paper can then be pulled off very easily. The Cook Says— If you have no flour dredger, take a tin of convenient size, punch a number of holes in the lid and this will answer every purpose of the more expensive article. A burned saucepan should be filled with cold water to which a liberal allowance of soda has been added.

In other words, there was an increase of 2,683 over last year. This same report says 4,611 divorces were granted in the State, representing a decrease of 11 when compared with last year's cases. One side of the scale moved up, the other down. This may mean that although more people "tied the knot" they were wiser about it. Or, it may mean that more people became united and less people were brave enough to voice their dissatisfaction and become "freed." No matter what the reason is, it may be safe to say the additional courses in eugenics, budgeting, sex psychology, social hygiene, and homemaking in our colleges and universities may be indirectly responsible for the change.

Mrs. Mary McLeod-Bethune During eleven months of the year the chief objective and, in the ultimate analysis, the only objective of the West 137th Street Branch of the Y. W. C. A. is service—service to girls and women and to this community. In order to make this service possible, however, during the twelve months—even while service is given—considerable degree of emphasis is put on money. This is the time of the annual effort to raise money necessary for carrying on the work in 1927. The Y. W. C. A. gives some service for which charges are made—as in the cafeteria, the employment, education and physical departments. It gives other service for which there is no charge—as in the girl reserve, rooms registry, information, religious work and club departments. And even in some of the fee carrying departments—as physical and education—if charges high enough to carry the department were made, the price would be prohibitive to many girls. Fees are kept within the income of the average girl; vital character YES, SIR! IT'S A FACT!

Sara Washington Wearing Wrinkles Wrinkles are woman's most dreaded enemy. They may be the result of unnatural use of muscles of the face, but oftimes the lack of their use causes flabbiness. Muscles, sinking below their level and allowing the skin to fall with them, will bring wrinkles. A pleasant smile keeps the muscles raised. A discouraged, discontented expression tends to draw the muscles down.

Makes Dark Inter In Few Days Washington Beauty Who Gained Refusing Old Methods can quickly gain a light skin, free from pimples, muddiness, shine and olliness. If you could see the lovely soft velvety light complexion of some Washington Society Women, you would turn on the light of progress and start this very day to have a complexion that you could well be proud of. All you have to do is to get from your dealer a jar of Washington Belle Skin Victory and use it as directed. After your skin is light and clear and soft as silk you need use it only occasionally to keep it that way. It acts on the pores of the skin and clears the complexion so quickly that your friends will wonder how you did it. Your dealer will sell you a box for 50 cents—that is if he keeps up with the times, but if he cannot supply you, send 50 cents to Washington Belle Toilet Co., Washington D. C., and you will get a box by return mail. Newark News Briefs Newark News Briefs SICKNESS or HEALTH?

A. C. Garner Addresses Madison Square Mass Meeting Congressman Ogden L. Mills, Republican nominee for Governor, made three addresses in churches in Harlem Sunday. The first meeting followed the morning service at Mother Zion Methodist Episcopal Church in West 137th street in the afternoon he spoke at Salem Methodist Episcopal Church, 129th street and Seventh avenue, where he preceded Senator Wadsworth, and at St. Marks's Episcopal Church at Edgecombe avenue and 129th street. The night before Governor Smith addressed a meeting of Noah Democritus in Liberty Hall, and with the meeting was in progress a big rally of the Republican Party was held in Madison Square Garden, under the auspices of the Republican Business Men's Inc. The speakers in their order were: Herbert M. Straus, president of the Republican Business Men's Association; Gen. James G. Harbord, president of the Radio Corporation of America; Senator Wadeworth, Dr. Alexander G. Garner, pastor of Grace Congregational Church; President Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia University and Congressman Mills. In part, Dr. Garner, who is also chaplain of the 363th New York infantry, said: "But the Negro of the new school is more inclined to break from the past, and dreams of better days, especially right here in New York. May we not forget that all races of citizenship in New York, and all varieties of Negroes are too. There are black men who have no sentiment about Abraham Lincoln. These are from the mainland detachement—the West Indies. If all the white people now in Haitem were to leave Negro Harlem, the blacks could keep it going as a Negro city within a great city. We grow more independent every day. We seek only equality of opportunity. The Negro believes in temperance in law enforcement. I am a city. We are all glad the saloons are gone. I am glad the city is benign. There may be a few of us people who would like light shoes and beer. Now what shall we say of our Democratic candidates? Governor Smith is a Democrat; he is outspoken, wet, and ambitious to be president. The South must make him a nominee if he is to be a candidate. The South has a library for the Ku Klux Klan and tolerates Negro can vote for the Democrats without co-operation with the South in race repression. The Democrats in the North are in the minority. The party leaders are grooming Governor Smith for favor in the next Democratic National Convention and have removed any barriers that might be raised upon by southern delegates to embarrass the candidacy of Governor Smith. They have left the party suggesting equality of Negroes before the law. Governor Smith came into Harlem and spoke, but blared no trumpets. We are your test of democracy. Mills water, rum, subways, schools, takes, referendums, etc., all play a part, but in the final analysis the man farthest down challenges the conscience of a party and a nation. We offer ourselves again in support of our traditional party. We do this because of the better policies for general progress, the better policies of business procedure, of better history for fair dealing with all men, for better race concession and understanding, for better care of personnel in general tickets, for generally stand-patterns in politics, but in Congressman Mills and Senator Wadsworth and in the Republican office generally we are in the company of high-stoppers. We want to elect you and we want to clerk also Paige for the State Senate and Howell for the Assembly. We are together—don't be deceived—better wet, moist or dry we are for the party of progress."

Colorful Movies Colorful Movies (Continued from Page 1.) ed a peculiar and perplexing situation in the adjustment of its Negro urban life. The Negro population has grown with mushroom-like rapidity. The advent of the Negro ghetto in Central, West and South Philadelphia brought with it all the passions and antipathies common to other communities which have felt the social nexus of intertactual relations. Employment became scarce. Magistrates' courts became crowded with the backwash of overladen Negro districts. Many of the inmocrats were not bad at heart. A chance was all they wanted, and in its pursuit they became misled, and finally were caught in the toils of the law. Philadelphia employers were loath to give Negro labor its deserved chance. They had remembered the overflow from Chester and Hog Island some years ago. Houses had become insanitary, and congestion had added to the menace of health and week. Just closed, has brought the classes and the masses to a better understanding in Philadelphia. And the cooperation in evolving the understanding was wonderful. Even the radio stations helped out. Adamant white organized labor softened its demeanor and offered to sit down and "talk it over." The Armstrong Association is to be congratulated in attempting such a sombazard undertaking. And the organization and individual movement have truly shown the silver lining to America's cloud of interracial bad-will. As to Mr. Washington, he is known throughout the country, not only as a liberal clarifier of social problems, but as a keen American, typical of the type whose foresight overmatches the average person's hindsight. Philadelphia is proud of his activities and of the era of industrial good-will which he and the Armstrong Association are constantly stimulating, with added new strength and finer ideals.

"Every Evening" daily paper, which adds that "Paul Dunbar would be startled were he to awaken and read today the stuff" that passes for poetry; for, as Madame Roland said of liberty, how many crimes are committed in poetry's name! He (Dunbar) gave to the Negro race a heritage that remains as a high mark for the singers of the race—or singers of any race; for that matter." Dr. Alain Leroy Locke, former professor of philosophy at Howard University, says, however, in the October, 1926, issue of "The Palms," edited in Mexico by Counteen Cullen: "Dunbar was the showman of the Negro masses; but here (Langston Hughes) is their spokesman." Dr. Locke says, further, "nor would I style Langston Hughes a race poet merely because he writes in many instances of Negro life, and consciously as a Negro. I strongly doubt if even Dr. Locke himself, can explain just what a poet "showman" is. Too, so-called race poets are on the wane. They that are now singing their songs in poetry, with but few exceptions, are looking for inspiration from the background of cultural intelligence. Paul Lawrence Dunbar was more than a race poet, and more than a "showman" of the Negro masses, which had but little to yield up, inspirationally or otherwise, when Dunbar's songs had reached their sweetest vein. Dunbar was a believer and an actor in the highest form of social service. He put forth many a biting piece of wisdom, many a bitter thrust, and much philosophy. He was even more than a spokesman. Yeah, he was a poetic prophet; yet full of tender, passionate love for mankind. They who seek to develop inspiration and poise sufficient to take up the truth which Dunbar blazed need, first, to absorb those human lines of his, in which he sang: "For human wants and human needs. Are more to me than prophet's deeds; And human tears and human cares. Affect me more than human prayers." NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS, WEDNESDAY, NOV. 3, 1926 Strike Threatened at N. C. School Strike Threatened at N. C. School Johnston C. Smith Students Demand That Six Freshmen Be Reinstated CHARLOTTE, N. C. Oct. 29. - Approximately 750 students at Johnston C. Smith University in Charlotte, N. C. were threatening today to strike as a result of a dispute with the faculty. The trouble grew out of the expulsion of six freshmen for minor offenses and the demand of the students that they be relentled. Announcement was made by John Williams of New York, spokesman for the sophomore class, that the freshmen, sophomores and junior had ignored a demand of H. L. McGryr, president of the institution, that they return to classes by 9 o'clock on Monday morning or stand "automatically expelled." President McGryr said that the faculty members were considering the situation and would make an announcement later, but that in the meantime the students should return to their classes. The strikers, however, demand a complete settlement of the difficulty and the relatetment of the expelled students before they will consider making peace. This is the first time in the history of the college that there has been any serious trouble between the faculty and the students. Johnston C. Smith University was formerly known as Biddle University. Two years ago it was renamed for Johnston C. Smith of Pittsburgh, whose gifts to the college totalled, approximately $500,000. The university is also a beneficiary of the Duke Foundation. FOOTBALL TEAM STANDS BY PLAYER (Preston News Service, CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. Nov. 1. - On account of the undemocratic spirit of the various high school members of the Cumberland Valley Athletic League four games have been cancelled because the local team has a Negro player. The authorities of the local school would not play the games unless they could select the personnel of their own team. The game with Winchester, Va. was called off last Thursday, Martinsburg, W. Va. Hagerstown, Md. and Waynesboro, Pa. had previously called off games with Chambersburg for the same reason. The schools contend that a "gentlemen's agreement" provided that no Negro player would be used in the league. The Chambersburg school officials declare that no such agreement existed.

Phone Prospect 6375 Connecticut Woman Again Attempts to Break Will of Late Brooklynite Connecticut Woman Again Attempts to Break Will of Late Brooklynite Surrogate Rules That John D. Nixon Must Remain as Executor as He Was Unquestionably Meant to Be Such by the Deceased The will contest case over the estate of the late William Henderson, a well-known politician and business man, which came up in the Kings County Surrogate's Court last week, was postponed until Nov. 15, because Attorney Myles A. Paige, the counsel for Flora Brown, who is a candidate for the senate of the state from the 19th senatorial district in Harlem, requested it, as he was in the midst of a campaign. EIGHT The will contest has attracted much attention, as Henderson was one of the best-known men in the downtown section. He had a boottack stand in front of the Federal post office for many years until he was made to move by the Democratic Collector of Internal Revenue. Through white friends he was able to get a stand in front of the Supreme Court Building at Borough Hall. Henderson is believed to have amassed a small fortune in this business. He invested in real estate, also. The Brown woman, who lives at 242 York street, New Haven, Conn., alleges that she is the first wife of Henderson and seeks to break the will. Mrs. Brown alleges that she married Henderson many years ago in Washington, D. C. Shortly, after the marriage he is alleged to have left her. She claims that there were two sons as a result of this marriage. Their names are Cornelius and Robert Henderson. Mrs. Emma Accoe Henderson, who married Mr. Henderson several years ago, after his wife, Mrs. Jannie Henderson, died, is the defendant in the action, as the residue of the estate was left to her. She had been in the employ of Mr. Henderson as his bookkeeper for many years. In the will Mr. Henderson makes his friend, John D. Nixon, executor of the estate. He died November 20, 1925, after a long period of illness. He was in the Lone Island College Hospital and is alleged to have jumped from a window while he was in intense pain. In the will the following persons were remembered as a sister, Rebecca Bovee of Kinston, N. C.; a brother, Laura Hargott of Trenton, N. C.; and Minerva Jones of New Borne, N. C. While Attorney John McGinnis, white, for Mrs. Emma Accoose Henderson, maintains that Flora Brown is not the wife of Henderson, the deceased remembered the two sons that Mrs. Brown claims were a result of that marriage. He leaves the sum of one dollar to each of my sons, Cornelius and Robert, because of their behavior and lack of industry. The estate valued at $4,500 and smaller than many people had been led to believe, for he did a thriving business almost right after he came here from Wilmington, N. C. 77 years ago. He was born in New Berne, N. C. With him when he came was his wife, Mrs. Jannie Henderson, and lived with her until the time of her death. Mr. Henderson owned at the time of his death the house in which he and his second wife, Mrs. Emma Henderson, lived at 28 Fleet street. He was left a life interest in the house. His gold watch was left to his friend, John D. Nixon. This is not the first time that there was a contest over the will. The Brown woman. it is reported, sought to have John D. Nixon set aside as the temporary administrator, but Surrogate George A. Wingate ruled that, while Henderson drew in several wills, in all of BROOKLYN ACADEMY OF MUSIC Tuesday Evening Nov. 9th, 1926 Roland Hayes ONLY APPEARANCE IN BROOKLYN Seats $1.00 to $2.00 (Plus Tax) On sale at Box Office now them he smoke of Nixon as "my friend" and named him as executor, so he remained in that capacity.

She took his $284, gave him the angel powder and a ring and told him to rub the ring in the powder every night, put it on his finger and dream about a high salaried job. He dreamed about it for nine months. Then he took counsel with himself "Dreamin' ain't gettin' me no job," he concluded, so he had Dr. Fisher and King arrested.

Prior to disbandment the regiment held its final parade in the presence of thousands of citizens who turned out to bid the men farewell.

Porters Fighting Company Union Porters Fighting Company Union Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Workers Meet to War on Mitchell "Down with Mitchell and the Pullman Company union," is the slogan of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters in their fight to gain recognition. This statement was made by Frank R. Crosswalte of the Brotherhood at the meeting held at St. Luke's Hall on West 132th street last Thursday night. The meeting had been called for three purposes, the main one being to acquaint the porters with the proposed plan of the Pullman Company by which they are offering the porters another union in place of the present organization. The other purposes of the meeting were to eulogize the late Engene V. Debs for his part in labor unionism, and to welcome back to New York A. Phillips Randolph, the president of the union, who has been traveling through the west. Mr. Randolph declared that the members of the Brotherhood must be ready for a big night. When they are asked to vote for the company union by the authorities of the Pullman company, they should refuse, even though the refusal might bring forth dismissal. He said that legally the Pullman Company has no right to make the men vote, and if they do so by force or fraud, this will be revealed by the union's attorney to the United State Mediation Board, which has the case of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters under consideration. The proposed election is only a ruse of the company to defeat the porters. "They'll find out that they will be outgeneralized," Mr. Randolph added. He also said that the branches of the union in the west were one hundred per cent strong against the proposed company union. Mr. Crosswathe gave forth the battle cry, "Down with Mitchell and the Company union." We'll drive Mitchell, the Pullman Company's New York representative, out of town bag and baggage if its the last thing we do. The Pullman Company wants a fight—they are going to get it. We're going to prove that when a Negro starts something he'll finish it." Joseph Schlossberg, secretary-treasurer of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America, delivered the eulogy on Debs. He told of how Mr. Debs gained fame during the first Pollman strike in 1894, and of his great work since in uniting the working men of this country into brotherhoods. "Debs was the personification of tolerance." Mr. Schlossberg said. "He treated all men alike whether they were white or black. He believed that a white heart could beat under a black skin as often as it could under a white skin. "Debs favored the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and had believed would have been in the thick of the fight to help it gain recognition, as he has helped so many others to gain victory. His memory should be a buildup on which the porters should stand to prove that a Negro has as much right to organize as a white man." Judge Jacob Panken, the Socialist candidate for Governor and George C. Collins, industrial secretary of the Fellowship of Reconciliation and honorary member of the Brotherhood, were the other speakers. Shot in Leg and Arm. He Says, by "Shorty" During an altercation in the hallway of 274 West Fortieth street early Friday morning, Herbert Jones, 27 years old, of 267 West Fortieth street, was shot in the left leg and left hand, he told the police of the West Forty-seventh station, by another man known to him only as "Shorty." Jones went to the French Hospital, where his wounds were dressed, and he was transferred to Bellevue Hospital. The police started a search for "Shorty" SUBWAY WORKER AWARDED $20.000 Twenty thousand dollars in settlement was obtained by Calvin Harkness, 302 West 124th street.

Handicapped Lad Awarded Medal Donald Mendez Receives Presentation of Roosevelt Committee Although handicapped by nature, Donald Mendez, 19.22.20 West 154th street, was honored again at the Friday assembly of the High School of Commerce, 155 West 65th street. The Roosevelt metal, awarded yearly by the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Committee to a boy who, in the face of difficulty, accomplishes some of the things he sets out to do, was given him, "The medal," said Dr. McNamara in making the presentation, "is a recognition of pick, courage, and fine spirit so characteristic of Theodore Roosevelt." Donald, the oldest of the six children of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Mendez, has maintained an average above 90 per cent during his seven terms in the school. Although an attack of infantile paralysis is the cause of his being a cripple, his record of punctuality and attendance is unusual. "I plan to attend New York University or City College," said Mr. Mendez as he told of his desire to become a certified public accountant. "Work? Yes. I do that in the summer. My clothes for the winter are bought with the money I make in the summer. Kind of work? Well. I do anything I can set to do."

Errand Boy Killed in Elevator Shaft Questioned James Carr, 17, an errant boy, of 2097 Seventh avenue, was instantly killed last Wednesday when he was wedged between the elevator and the elevator shaft on the fifth floor of the Jackson Building. 2 West 50th street. The Fire Department rescue squad and the police emergency squad from the West 50th street station worked over an hour to extricate the body. Fred Hendrickson, operator of the elevator, when taken to the West with street station for questioning, told the police that he had left the elevator car at the fifth floor to answer a phone call from the building superintendent. He said that the boy was waiting to descend when he left the car, and he told the lad not to enter the elevator nor to close the door, for that would automatically lock the safety device and make it impossible to enter the car. for the operator to register the car. It is believed by the police that the boy ignored the warning and entered the car and touched a control, starting the car. "He then. It is believed, became frightened and attempted to leave the car. In jumping he must have misjudged the distance for, instead of landing safely on the floor, he fell between the elevator and the wall and was instantly killed as the elevator descended. Hendrickson was not arrested. Noted Artists to Give Recital Noted Artists to Give Recital To Appear for Dedicatorial Services of St. Mark's Church One of the world's distinguished pianists, R. Augustus Lawson, is coming to St. Mark's M. E. Church in a dedicatory recital to be held in the new auditorium on Thursday evening, November 11. Some years ago, after Mr. Lawson had played before Theodor Leschotziky, the great teacher of the piano in Vienna, Austria, he made the following comment upon Mr. Lawson's playing: "Americans generally have technic; Mr. Lawson has poetry." In a personal letter to Mr. Lawson, Ossip Gabrilowitsch wrote: "My Dear Mr. Lawson: I wish to say how pleased I was to hear you play the other day and to notice the fine progress you have made since the time I heard you in Europe some three years ago. You certainly have made big strides and I believe you ought now to be heard in a Metropolitan concert." Not in a long time has the New York public been given the chance to enjoy such a musical treat as this promises to be and no true lover of music can afford to miss it. Mr. Lawson is to be assisted in his recital by his wife, Mrs. Ida Napter Lawson, soprano. The Fisk "Herald" had this to say of the Lawson: "The recital given by Mr. and Mrs. A. Augustus Lawson at Fisk University December 29 was a rare musical treat. Mr. Lawson's command of the piano is a work of art. "His exquisite touch was shown throughout the program of varied selections from the masters. "The vocal work of Mrs. Ida Napier Lawson is of high order. She has a soprano voice of wide range and sweetness, showing unusual culture. Her singing was greatly enjoyed by all. Their delightful entertainment was one of the best in the history of the university." C. Warner Lawson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawson, who graduated from the collegiate and musical department of Fisk University last June and is now pursuing a postgraduate course in music at Yale University, will be the accompanist at this recital. John F. Williams, a dramatic reader whom all will enjoy, is to participate in the program, also. The recital begins at 5:35 P. M. and you are urged to come early, as there are no reserved seats. The admission is $1. The recital is given under the auspices of The Children's Friend Club and the proceeds are for the benefit of the Building Fund.—(Advt.)

Matthew A. Henson a Congressional Medal for undaunted courage and bravery on his many trips through the Arctic regions with Admiral Peary, and his discovery, with Admiral Peary, at the North Pole, and a second bill allowing Henson to retire as a messenger in the service of the United States Custom House with his present salary of $1,700 per annum as a pension. Admiral Peary was signally honored by being elevated to the rank of Rear Admiral from Commander. His exploits were shared by Henson, who to this day has never been accorded the honor due him. On three different occasions he saved Peary's life. Without Henson it is probable that Peary would never have discovered the North, Pole, nor returned to the United States alive. Card Players Robbed of $600 in Holdup George Williams, 32, 1550 Thirlstone avenue, was arrested Friday by Detectives Lynch and Drago, of the 10th street station, and charged with having acted in concert with four men who on Thursday night held up five card players on the first floor of 295 K. 102rd street and took about $600 in cash. The arrest of Williams came about through information furnished by Peter Greco, white, 22, 211 K. 57th street, who was the first of the fire to be arrested. Greco was arrested early Friday, and in his possession, the detectives said they found a $100 bill with numbers corresponding to those furnished by the player who said the large bill had been taken from him. Williams is said to have played the part of top-of-man. He is alleged to have supplied the information as to how much money was in the game and when the proper moment for the hold-up had arrived. Williams and Greco were are raised before Magistrate Good- man in Harlem Court, and here without bail for the Grand Jury. empire'S SHOE 4 THE Em THE Empire SHOE 4 Get a Pair of Empire Shoes Only $4.00 Convince Yourself of The unusual value Unequaled service Up-to-date styles "Parisian" Using this ad when you chose and get the bottle of polish FREE EMPIRE SHOE STORES 124 WEST 125th STREET (Met.

Mrs. Bethune Talks to Newspapermen Florida School Must Raise $60,000, She Says "The Negro is no longer a beggar. He works for what he gets. He asks for opportunity and fair play," said Mrs. Mary McLeod-Bethune, president of the Bethune-Cookman College, Daytona Beach, Fla., at a meeting of newspaper representatives on Monday afternoon. On October 3, twenty-two years ago, there was founded by this woman a one-room school. The capital, $1.50, and five little girls were all she had. Today the school valued at a little less than a million dollars, has 400 students and about 30 instructors. At the school a three-fold education is stressed. "The head, hand and heart," said Mrs. Bethune, "are the means of our future success. They will help us put over our viewpoint and get for us equality and opportunity." A little over two years ago this school became on educational and was called the Daytona-Cookman Collegiate Institute, because of the amalgamation with Cookman Institute of the Methodist Episcopal Church. "This step was taken just to give the school a form of permanency," replied Mrs. Bethune when asked whether or not the school was endowed. "The Methodist Episcopal Church gives us $20,000 a year. We must raise the other $50,000." Mrs. Bethune, in her enthusiastic manner, outlined her plan to get contributions for the school. For sixweeks she will be here. "away from her boy and girls," as she so nicely put it, in interest of the school. In that length of time she hopes to raise $50,000, a sum necessary to meet a pending debt of the school. Representatives from The New York Times, The New York World, The Daily News, The Pittsburgh Courier, The Amsterdam News and The New York Age were present at the meeting.

Edgecombe 4753, Evelyn Mason Dies Suddenly in California; Buried Last Saturday Evelyn Mason Dies Suddenly in California; Buried Last Saturday Energetic Young Woman Had Promising Career and Was Getting Ready to Bring Out Duncan Sisters Show With a Big Colored Company This Season A telegram from Garland Anderson brought the sad news of the sudden passing away of Miss Evelyn Mason, who came to this city and made her first appearance in "The Demi-Virgin" at the Lafayette Theatre some time ago. Unusually intelligent, Miss Mason did not linger around after the close of the show, which was billed to appear in other cities but never did go out after the refusal of a Gibson agent to take it into Philadelphia. The coming of Garland Anderson from California with his "Appearances" disclosed that Miss Mason was engaged to the writer of the play, which sought and received a hearing on Broadway. Although engaged in another line at the time Mr. Anderson came here, Miss Mason decided to lend her aid to his efforts and journeyed to California to lend inspiration to the ambitious son of the Golden West. While there she interested the Duncan sisters in a proposition to put out "Topsy and Eva" by a colored company and everything had been completed for the producing of this show. News from California said that the cast had been secured and rehearsals were going on. Then came a telegram from Mr. Anderson stating that Miss Mason had suddenly taken sick from ptomaine poisoning, which developed into locked bowels, which necessitated an immediate operation which was unsuccessful. Miss Mason passed away last Thursday and was buried in Pasadena on Saturday. While here some time ago she wrote a series of articles for this paper, which attracted wide attention. In conjunction with Garland Anderson she also lectured before some of the wealthiest people here and from the many friends she made she went away with promises of their undivided support when the time would be ripe for her to make her return to the east. But fate had decreed differently and today the sod of the Golden West covers all that was mortal of one of the finest creatures that ever graced the amusement world. Certain self-styled and so-called critics of the parasite sheets in these parts failed to see beneath the surface of this brilliant young woman when she first came here, but her activities later proved how high above them she stood in accomplishments, and, though a member of the so-called weaker WONDERFUL NEW DISCOVERY WHITENS AND CLEARS YOUR SKIN AFTER A FEW TREATMENTS Banish Freckles, Blackheads, Muddiness, Tan, Pimples, Sallowness, Blotches and all Blemishes by this wonderful new scientific treatment, which positively clears and whiteness your skin after a few nights' treatment.

"The Flaming Frontier" at the New Douglas Theatre Fort Hays, one of the historic old western outposts of the early 70s, was reproduced in all its picturesqueness for "The Flaming Frontier," the Universal production that is coming to the Douglas Theatre, commencing Saturday. The picture, which was directed by Edward Sedgwick, has been given an all-star cast and the story is laid in the closing days of the Indian's fight to retain the West, culminating in the Custer massacre. The old log houses of frontier days reappear again. The pony express rider and the romantic old stage coach dash in and out of the scene. A hundred or more army tents of the period are arranged in strict military formation. Looking at the flag that files from the top of the crude staff at the army post, movie fans may be tempted to criticize Director Sedgwick because of the few stars it contains. But the flag is correct, for in those days only 36 stars gleamed on its blue field. One can almost hear the bugle calls and the cavalry horses champing at their bits. An old muzzle-loading cannon stands ready for action and on the hills in the background Indian tepees add to the picturesqueness of the scene. It is one of the many colorful sequences of this most colorful picture. The cast consists of such well-known players as Hoot Gibson, Dustin Farnum, Ward Crane, Anne Cornwall, Kathleen Key, Eddie Gribbon, Harry Teid, Harold Goodwin, George Fawcett, Charles K. French, Noble Johnson, William Steele, Walter Rodgers, Ed Wilson and Joe Bonomo. Phil Napoleon THE MUSICIAN Who Brings His Orchestra of Twelve to the Savoy Next Saturday Night.

Mr. Foster is a writer on the Houston Chronicle. I WENT to this particular reading with many misgivings. It was about a play written by a Negro. He was to appear in person, and a woman of the same race was scheduled to assist in telling the story of their experiences in presenting the drama on Broadway. Accessed the invitation as a duty, but I went in a rather disturbed, dubious frame of mind. In some way I pictured in advance a spolied New York-petted Negro with an air-of superiority and a feeling that he had a message for my special enlightenment. They take up so many queer folks out here that I am always prepared in advance mentally for any character or a shock. So you see I started out with something of a prejudice, which is always wrong. AND, glad to say, I was disillusioned. It was one of the most pleasurable evenings I have yet spent in this city. I was given a literary and a dramatic treat, and the two Negroes were as modest, as humble and as willing to serve as if they were servants. In fact, after the reading and the talks they donned kitchen aprons and served the refreshments that were furnished by our hosts. Not once did they strive to secure any special recognition, but when they had finished their recital we acclaimed the author as one who had done something really worth while for his race, surmounting obstacles that would have deterred many a Caucasian. His assistant we recognized as a clever actress with a voice that was clear, calm and convincing. DROBABLY you read about this Negro author last year. He was a bellhop in a San Francisco apartment. While answering telephone calls, delivering packages and waiting upon the guests he wrote a play. He did it without any knowledge of the technique of the drama, and without any training. His schooling had been very little, the greater part being the education of himself by reading and studying as he waited at the switchboard. Between telephone calls he outlined and then wrote his play. His name is Garland Anderson, and he is black—a true Negro, not a mulatto. THE play he wrote has the title of "Appearances." I think a better title might be "The Bellhop," for it is mainly the story of a Negro bellboy who tried to do something for his race, and who when brought before the courts on a charge of criminal assault secured an acquittal. He was a man of great intelligence, with humor him and who had faith in him. The bellhop's greatest victory, however, was from his own faith and his belief in the right. In some respects the play is on the style of "The Fool," although in no case an imitation. It is similar in that it carries the same message of charity for mankind, and of right living and right thinking. The drama is not all "preaching," however. There is much real Negro humor in it; there is a plot, and frequently there is a thrill in the denouements. The court scene, when the Negro is on trial, is the best I have ever read, or seen presented. That is saying a great deal, for there have been many plays with such scenes, including the famous "Madame X" trial. HOW Garland managed to ret his play presented on Broadway is itself a thrilling story. No doubt you read something about that last fall. I did, but I passed it over with a shrug, thinking it was just another story of New York "falling" for the unusual. When you hear the recital from Garland's own lips you realize just what he accomplished with little or no backing at the start except his faith in himself. Citi- 5 Days, Starting Sat, Nov. 6 HOOT GIBSON, DUSTIN FARNUM and ANNE CORNWALL in The All-American Thriller With a Cast of 10,000 (Positively First Run in Harlem) (Positively First Run in Harlem) zens of San Francisco did raise a small purse for him, and did send him to New York with strong letters of recommendation. He arrived there with $200 and his manuscript. For weeks he went from one producer to another, but could make no impression. All agreed he had written something good, but no one was willing to make the experiment of selecting a cast, rehearsing them and paying all the preliminary expenses. It meant a gamble of perhaps $20,000, and why should a New York theatre owner take that risk on an unknown Negro bell-hop's play when there were hundreds of recognized playwrights ready with the season's offerings? S0 Garland soon found himself in the big city with all his money gone and nothing in the way of assets except his manuscript. In some way he managed to rent the Waldorf ballroom for a reading. By much effort and persistence he secured the agreement of Governor Al. Smith, Major of the first-class host's guests. He got the newspapers to tell something of the story and to announce that a reading would be given. Much to Garland's own astonishment, more than 700 those presented. It was free, but after the story had been told the people were contributed $300, of which $200 paid the ballroom rent. Then a two-ducer came forward and agreed to give the play a trial run. It appeared for three weeks, playing to big houses, and was then taken off because the theatre had been previously leased for another attraction. That was last fall. NOW Garland Anderson is back in California, and early in November his play will be presented in Los Angeles. A well-known theatre has been rented, and Garland's friends amongst the white people are putting up the money. Practically the same cast seen in New York will be here. The cast and the characters are all white except the bellhop, the janitor and the maid. THIS may seem a rather long column on one subject, but I think Garland's record deserves much space and praise. He is to the drama what Roland Hayes is to the world of song. He also ranks with Booker T. Washington and Paul Lawrence Dunbar. They constitute a quartet of Negroes who should be an inspiration to their race.

But here it was: Staring out from a sheet which carried all the earmarks of being hastily utilized by one of the political parties to reach the people of Jamaica, L. I., which people, it would seem, had apparently gone Democratic if we are to believe the "Empire State Gazette." And the coming of Brother Snelson to this suburban town brings with it a tale of sadness intermingled with joy. We have it from no less an authority than our own "Chappie" Gardner that the "Gazette." having served its purpose, has decided to give up the ghost now that the political fires are almost out—along with hundreds of dollars sunk into the vitals of the Gazette hoping that it would survive after the political storm. That's sadness. For joy we have we rebirth of that once famous sheet known as the "Enterprise." The one great claim upon which this latter publication can stage its comeback platform will be the famous beauty contest wherein the judges went on record as being for the recall and referendum. Resorting to that recourse which seems to be the only means for certain would-be journalists to keep before the public—the staging of a beauty contest, of course—the "Enterprise" staged such an affair, but when the judges had picked their choice an irate audience voiced its disapproval and right then stepped in the recall. The upshot of the whole matter was a promise to the aggrieved young lady of a prize same in value as the one given to the young lady chosen after the referendum, but the task appeared to be too much for the "Enterprise" and it soon left the field in preparation for the birth of the "Gazette." While South street showed signs of waking up for a few minutes at the coming of the "Gazette," it appears that the sheet did not find a warm welcome even though philanthropically handled by its publishers. Bill White, formerly of the "Defender," and Floyd Snelson, formerly of the "Tattler," but more recently of the "Pittsburgh Courier," will endeavor to find a tane up which they can pilot the Long Island sheet.

Such action on the part of the United States Naval Academy would be most unsportsmanlike, most undemocratic and most un-American, and one against which this association protests on behalf of the colored citizens of the country. We respectfully request that the Navy Department investigate this matter and take steps to remedy the situation, if it is as reported. Secretary Wilbur Acts WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—Secretary of the Navy Wilbur has called upon the Superintendent of the United States Naval Academy for a report on the alleged refusal of the Amphipolis football team to play Colgate team last Saturday unless the latter withdrew Ray Vaughan, a Negro player. The matter was brought to the attention of Secretary Wilbur by a protest from the National Association for the Advancement of ColorPeople. Pending a report, Secretary Wilbur declined to discuss the incident on the ground he knew nothing about it. The famous St. Mark's Flashes, left for the past two seasons, are ready to resume their activities on the basketball court. In their line-up will be: Walter Thomas, Elmo Nelrrop, Pat Harrison and Johnny Ford of the old Flashes and Leroy Rodman and Alfred Eldridge, drafted from the St. Mark's alumni team—enough material to furnish the backbone library, two ordinary teams. The Flashes are ready to play the best teams in the country and are desirous of hearing from them. Address communications to St. Mirak's Catholic Club, 57 West 133th street, New York City.

Basketball Zans in Harlem know varos, teams and can sense the specific encounter is on the been NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS: WEDNESDAY, NOV. 3, 1926 IN the early days of social activities in Brooklyn it was a rather hazardous matter to go through in an entire evening at a public affair without being in danger of becoming embroiled in a battle. OLD Atlantic Park and Casino, which was burnt to the ground many years ago, saw some of the most hectic encounters between gangsters who would invade the best of affairs given by our people on the wrong side of the bridge. THEN came a better day. For years affairs were staged without the accompaniment of clashes between the lower classes, even though they forced their presence where they were not wanted. About five years ago came the return of those dark days, and many have been the clashes between the warring black tongs. INNOCENT people have been shot. Women have been hurt in the rush to get out of certain halls when, to the accompaniment of screams, fights would start and the crowd would make a concerted move for the exits. In September one of the worst affairs of this kind took place at Labor Lyceum, and the result was the closing of the place to colored people. WHILE it is true that the Superior Club of Brooklyn is among the foremost, let the members not forget that the innocent must suffer with the guilty for the wrongs our huns commit. It is very hard to be forced to suffer in a matter towards which no contribution of ill has been made by the respectable organizations, but let us not forget that our social fabric is so constructed it is nothing unusual to see people of questionable character mixing in with our so-called best. SUCH a condition exists even here in Harlem; but thanks to the ready assistance of the Police Department and necessary strong-arm methods, the thugs seldom get far with their battles at public affairs. There is no reason to wonder at this state of affairs when even at the very best dances we see pimps, bootleggers, runners of buffet flats, etc., mixing in with those supposed to be laying the foundation of a social structure which will exclude those of questionable character. We are firmly convinced that the prejudice of the whites is strong against us simply because we have not reached that stage in our existence where class lines are strongly drawn. TIME after time we have fooled ourselves into believing that this thing of class lines should obtain only in the old world, but the bitter experience of the worthy will prove that not until such time as barriers are erected against those who flaunt their vices in the face of the existing conventions will we be considered—at least will the white people know that there is a big difference. If we have no reward for virtue in spite of the vapid claim of its being its own reward, and we are going to treat the underworld with the same consideration that we treat those who are living clean and wholesome lives, then we might as well be satisfied to accept the worst when it comes. A PROPOS of the conditions which brought about the barring of all colored organizations from Labor Lyceum in Brooklyn, we reproduce the following communications on the matter by the gentlemen of the superior Club of the "City of Churches," of which there are no hotter.

In reference to our coming basketball program and as a means of letting our supporters know what we are doing, I am sending you a copy of a letter written by our president, Clarence N. Johnson, to the Labor Lyceum management re their refusal to continue the rental of their hall to colored patrons. As you may know, this is a direct result of a battle royal staged at a dance given by the Virginia Joymakers in September. For this we do not blame the organization, but rather the rowdies that were permitted to attend. While we are wonderfully situated at Arcadia, we feel that, in all fairness to the better organizations who have used or were contemplating the use of the Lyceum as the means of their financial betterment, we are in a unfortunate situation in instituting an effort to curb the responsible element would be appreciated and furthered by these clubs. We have always catered to and have been patronized by the better class of Brooklyn folk and it is these that we intend to keep if it means the expenditure of the last dollar in our treasury. We have always provided the best as to hall and music, while our basketball team is on a par with the leaders. These standards we intend to keep. We will reserve all rights at our games and will refuse admission to all known troublemakers. We don't want their money, and their presence even less. So in order to avoid personal embarrassment, we advise them to stay away, as no admission will be granted. That the fans in Brooklyn want basketball is evinced by their regular and large attendances. We are going to give it to them on a big scale this season. The occurring arrests fail our weekly schedule and the resulting Cincinnati Skies Edison Records merely Strand Dandelion Players) are but two steps toward this end. All we ask of them is their heartiest support and we will afford them the same protection we give to our homes.

In view of our pleasant relations in the past three or four years, I thought that our dealings were such that they would give us special consideration and that an exception would be made in our case. Just in passing I might say: The Superior Club, Inc., is an organization composed of young men and women who have for their ideals the encouragement of mental, physical and social development. In order to crystallize these ideals into actualities the club must resort to public dances and basketball games for income. No movement can be successful, no matter how great its purpose, without financial aid and support. These were the methods we used in order to build up and supply our treasury. For the present season we had planned and outlined a large schedule of basketball games for our home court and we anticipated hiring the Lyceum for all of them.

The battle ended with a 34-30 score in favor of the Renaissance. The coming Sunday night will witness another thriller when the Bronx Professionals come down to Harlem to again see if they can do anything with the colored champions. Captain Harry David said the other day that he believes he has a surprise in store for the followers of the Renaissance team. Well can he so opine, for he will come here with one of the best aggregation of basketball tossers, that ever represented the Bronx.

Urban League Charity Ball to Be Stellar Attraction November 12 brings the annual Fancy Dress Ball, under the auspices of the Women's Auxiliary of the New York Urban League, to the Manhattan Casino and the pleasure lovers of Harlem. It is hardly fair, however, to say that only Harlem will make up the brilliant throng that will pack the Casino on that eventful Friday. The patrons of the league ball come from far and near. Each preceding year Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Atlantic City have been well represented and a goodly number of reservations have already come in from these cities. Of course, downtown, the Village and the neighboring New York, New Jersey and Long Island towns send more than their share. In fact, the league ball occupies a very prominent place on the social calendar of the East and well deserves its laurels. For three years it has offered the most attractive dance hall, the very best music, the most novel features of entertainment and the acme of good-fellowship. On the committee's announce- ment is the line—Fancy Dress, Optional. Everybody may come, even although they prefer not to wear costumes. The ball promises to be the most gorgeous of the season and Mrs. Florence of Loach Richardson reported last Tuesday all boxes sold.

Not content with securing tor the fans the most beautiful. spaci- our and easily accesstole hall in Brooklyo, the management informs Us that ther have engaged Prof. Charles Skeets and his Edison Re corders (formerly Strand Dance- land Players) for the complete sea- son, affording dance music that rivals the loftiest. ‘Mr, Skeets hag always pee favorite with the berough dance public, Starting at the Strand Danceland, a white night club of Brooklyn's theatrical district, he has gained much distinction as an artist and radio broadcaster, This past summer he played in Asbury Park at the Club Roscland and met with decided approval. Returning to the borough he has been engaged in making records for the Edison Phonograph Co. His presence should mean the addition of many hundreds to the Superior Club's games, Real form is befag showh by the Lighting 5 in their preparation for the Tuxedo 5. The boys fully ap preciate the tough calibre of the organization selected by their manager for the initial game, and if J.

Yonkers Casey, in the 147-pound final. The colored flash, who bas scored previous decisive victories over Reinberger, went down for the ‘count of nine in'the first round and never recovered. He was sadly beaten, without ever showing aur fof his’ best work. [he fact that Moses had fought a grueling extra round affair with Gene Cue in the semi-final may have had something to do with his inglorious defeat. Jezy Grove of the Clark House, 2 newcomer to amateur competition. was the winner in the 138-pound section by default. Tom McGar- Hand. who had fought a hectic up- hill battle to win from Lem Sam- son in the semifinal. left the ring badly cut up and was unable to meet Grove. The latter scored one lof the few knockouts of the nisht ia his bracket, giving a promising and convincing, if short, exbibitioz against Benny Fonavita of the ‘White House A.C.

But since spiritual truth is the most vital element in our lives, it is natural that a great deal must be said about it. It is a simple fact, easily verified, that the generality of non-churchgoers, and indeed a large portion of regular attendants, regard an invitation to church as a request to "hear our preacher" or hear my sermon. The thought of public worship as both an individual and social duty does not seem to be present in the average mind and conscience of today. This is because the Sabbath meeting has come to mean the Sunday preaching—chiefly this and nothing more. Hence, people regard the church as a Sunday club and the pulpit as an ecclesiastical lecture platform. So they naturally reason that, since such is the case, they are justified in attending church at home by tuning in on the radio and hearing sermons by the most learned divines and solos by professionals. "May I not stay at home and listen in to a delightful service?" asks the average non-churchgoer. Certainly, with profit, if this matter of sermon hearing is all there is of your Sunday-go-to-meeting religion. According to recent statistics, men and women are turning away from the church by the hundreds of thousands. It does not seem to meet their needs. Sermonizing seems to be the chief. If not the only, use for which the church exists. The more eloquent the preacher, the more popular he and his church become. As a rule, the popular pulpit idol of the day is the man who does not presume to be either a leader of public opinion on religious themes or a fearless and faithful exponent of the divine law and gospel. The preacher of today who does not preach the "whole counsel of God" and "keep back nothing that is profitable to the people" must assume his share of being responsible for many of the shocking and debasing misdemeanors perpetrated by so-called Christians. It is almost an acknowledged fact that our model Christians, according to present-day church standards, are more disreputable than worldly sports. There was a time when Paul preached Felix trembled, but now Felix sits in the front pew and Paul trembles as he preaches.

But most vital element in our lives, must be said about it. We verified, that the generality led a large portion of regular on to church as a request to my sermon. wonder that men are not touched? In the days of John the Baptist if a preacher preached the whole unsoftened truth and applied religion to practical life, they cut off his head. In these days they cut off his salary, which is just as effective and saves funeral expenses. Unless the church forgets creeds and the preacher-popularity, and works toward the one end of lifting Christ, she is doomed; not the church that Christ founded, but the organized society which men call church. Millions of struggling and dying people need to realize just one thing—that Jesus came to save them, and will save them now. Unless the church shows them the way to find Him, she will die just as surely as God lives. Different forms of organized religions have nourished and become corrupt and then passed into oblivion, but the truth still lives on, and so shall it be again unless the church checks her downward course. Genuine Christianity eliminated from the pulpit will be quickly followed by its disappearance from the pew. N. Y. A. M. E.

PROBING FRATERNAL INSURANCE HARRISBURG, Pa., Nov. 1. Twenty-six fraternal insurance organizations, with headquarters in various states, were called upon by Elmar Earford, state insurance commissioner, Thursday, to show cause on November 9 why their licenses to sell insurance in Pennsylvania should not be revoked. The action is said to be the result of recent investigation by the commissioner. This investigation showed, he said, that while "some excellent fraternal societies" were found to be doing business in Pennsylvania, "others appeared to operate principally for the benefit of the organizers, officers and promoters."

Agriculture Dept. Helps Improve Farm Homes ‘The Department of Agricul- ture has just announced work in the improvement of conditions 10 3,260 Negro farm homes through- out the South in the last Year. The statement says: ‘The first coat of paint or whitc- wash was applied to 2.260 Negro farms homes scattered throughout the South last yeat because of the help and_ encouragement given by the 177 Negro 2gricul- tural agents cooperatively emi ployed by the United States De- partment of Agriculture and the State colleges. ‘Many Negto farmers now look with pride at their own clean, at- tractive farm homes with glass windows, where before there were only shutters: conventent doorsteps where there was nouc before; 2 good well which docs away with the long tramp to the next farm for water which was often polluted: a sanitary toile: with jts added protection to the family and community health; end an attractive planting of trees and shrubbery. yeurs of age and his cousin, who had been raised by Sam Lowman and his wife, were plowing in a ficld 100 yards away. “When Mrs. Lowman and her daughters saw the white men approaching the house they thought it wisest to go inside until they had passed. The sherifis drew guns and started running towards the house to surround it. Berths Lowman screamed. “Demon and Clarence ran to the house as the sheriifs rushed into it. Sheriff Howard and Bertha Lowman reached the back steps at the same time. The sheriff knocked Bertha out of the way with his left fist, his pistol clutched in his right hand, shouting to her to stand back. “In the melee Deputy Sheriff Robinson fired and killed Mrs. Annie Lowman. Bertha Lowman was shot twice in the left bréast just above the heart and once through the ab- domen. Clarence Lowman was also severely injured. while Demon Lowman was. shot but not wounded seriously. “Sheriff Howard was killed by gunshot wounds and, in the first trial three state's witnesses testified that a pistol, bullet went through his head. The sheriffs had_ pistols. Clarence Lowman had 2 shotgun, while Demoa Lowman had a pistol, but at no time was anywhere near Sheriff Howard or at a point where he could have shot the sheriff. ix the trial it was brought out that the white men did not in any way or manner indicate they were officers of the law. Hasty Trial Amid High Tension “Five of the Lowmans were arrested and moved hastily to the penitentiary at Columbia to avoid a lynching. Accord- ing to the record of the South Carolina State Supreme Court. the shooting took place on April 25, Howard’s funeral on the 26th fat which were present more than 200 Klansmen in full regalia). inquest was held on the 27th, the court convened on May 4. the indictment of the Lowmans was had the same day, the defendants were arraigned on the gth and placed on trial May 12. 5 “Feeling was so high in Aiken, according i the defense briei in the Supreme Court, it was published to the world that it would be difficult to obtain lawyers for the Lowmans in Aiken. .\terneys were appointed by the court, who nierely went through the gestures of defending them. In his charge to the jury, Judge H. F. Rice, knowing of the danger to the lawyers, even though appointed by the court, apologiz- ed ior the formal defense made by them and impressed upon the jury that ‘none of them wanted to do it.’ “Bertha, Demon and Clarence were found guilty of mur- der with a recommendation’ of merey in the case of Bertha. Bemon and Clarence were sentenced to dic on June 12, 1923. and Bertha to life imprisonment. Iz is worthy of note that Bertha and Clarence Lowman’s lives were hanging in the balance irom, their wounds az the time they were placed on trial and they were taken ivom the hospital to the court room. ~The case was so outrageous that N. J, Frederick. 2 col- ored attorney of Columbia, on his own initiative, entered the case and filed an excellent appez! to the State Supreme Court for a review of the cases, resulting in a reversal of the convictions and the remanding of the defendants for a new: trial. “The three defendants were again placed on trial Oct. at Aiken, Tudge Lanham presiding. Mr. Frederick: retained 1.. G. Southard, a white attorney of Spartanburg, paying him . $125 out of his own pocket. Messrs. Frederick and Southard put up 2 magnificent defense and completely demolished the State's case. “On Oct. 7 a motion was made for a directed verdict uf not guilty in the case of Demon Lowman. It was generally conceded in Aiken that Clarence and Bertha would be freed by the jury the next day. Az 5 in the afternoon Judge lan jiam granted the motion for the dismissal oi the case against Demon. He was. however, immediately rearrested on a charge of assault and battery and recommitted tw jail.

A, ADAMS “The Crookedest River in tite World” WOTlG — TEX mere advertising a trip up the Thames River from De- wolt, Michigae, to Chatham, On- trio, and the river was cited as “The crookedest river in the world.” When we had complet ed our trip, had seen the bends, curves and serpentine windings of this river we were ready to agree with the characterization used. This “crookedest river” had x channel, and the hoat had a pilot and an engineer, the one to steer and the other to execute his or- drs by which the directing of the boat was made possible. By the combined efforts of these two fatthtal oficiais the boat was ‘xept in the channel and we made the Voyage safely. Life is 2 winding way. like tite “crookedest river.” and its couse ig dangerous in the extreme, but the Supervisor of human ies- tines has given to each of ns conscience as our pilot and a will to serve ag our encinert. Only by the faithful servicer of there two can we keep within the channel and insure our own safety and that of our fellow- veyagers. In order to do its part con- been sent to us distant a point as Columbia that the three Lowmans were tu be lynched zhat night, Within the. same hour the Ku Klux Kian held « meeting in the office of a prominent white attorney of Aiken who bad been recently clected to the State Legislature. At this meeting plans were perfected for the lynching and also plans were discussed, but nhandoned, to tar and feather Mr. Frederick and to castrate, Mr. Southard, the white attorney. : “A prominent and respectable white iawyer of Spartan- berg warned Judge Jaunham and Solicitor Bert Carter thar a lynching was in the air. Despite this the Lowmans were committed to jail with only one guard, whereas plans had becn made to remove the defendants hastily should they be convicted. 4 “Shortly aiier midnight a police officer of Aiken forced automobilists 10 remove cars from around the jail so that the lynchers would have a pluce to park their curs. \ccord- ing to reliable informants Sheriff Kubinson, Deputy Sheriiis McEthaney and A. D. Sheppard and Traffic Policeman Salley dragged Bertha Lowman from her cell. got the other two defendants and handed them’ over ty the mob. Aiter the mob had secured the prisoners two shots were fired in- side the jail and not, as Sheriff Robinson claimed. when he was trying ‘to prevent entry’ of the mob into the jail. “The mob, numbering between thirty and forty. started out York street on the Dixie Highway to a tonrist camp about two iiles from Aiken, On the way Clarence Lowman ‘umped from the car is which he was held. He was shot duwn and recaptured. In order to prevent telltale blood marks. a rope was tied ro the back of the car und the other end of it around Clarence’s budy. In this manner he was dragged about a mile to the place oi exceution, . “The members of the moly stated that Bertha was the hardest to kill, She was shot bat nut killed instantly. She dragged herself over the ground and, as one member oi the mob put it, ‘bleated like a goat. Another member of the mob, slightiy more decent. said that she begged so piteously tor her life and squirmed about so that a number of shots had to be fired before une found a vital spot and ended her agony. Facts Given to South Carolina’s Governor “[ have jurnished Thomas G. McLeod, Governor of South Carolina, in a six-page letter, every detail regarding the lynching, T have given him the name of the member of the meb who was accorded ‘the honor’ of being executioner, but whose nerve failed him. [ have furnished him with the names of the three men who did act as executioners and vi their tw assistants, ; “f have iurnished him with the names and addresses and occupations of twenty-two members of the mob, telling the Governor in detail of the part played by each one of them ut the iynching. I have iurnished him with the names of eleven ather persons who were very close to the lynching es spectators but who did not actively participate in it. “This list includes, besides the sheriff and his deputies, other so-called law-enforcement viiicers, prominent business men and threg men related to the Governor and the name of of at least one member of the Grand Jury investigating the lynching, 1 also furnished the Governor with the names of four white men and one colured man incarcerated m the Aken jail on the night of the lynching. and who saw the sheriff and his deputies drag Bertha Lowman from her eli and tum her ever to the mob, 7 “L have alse stated to the Governor that J can furnish, him with the names and addresses wf most influential and respectable white citizens uf the community why will testify to the correctness of the facts set forth, if the Guverner will wuaranice them prozeetion front the vengeance of the Kian ih te iemaare.

Nov. 1.—The trial of two Negro women date workers who were arrested for plucking premises of the Maras & Co. date ruining factory several weeks ago, has been again postponed. The trial was to have been hold Thursday morning, but the judge declared that his dock was too full for a jury trial, and ordered the hearing put off to a later date. He did not set a date. The strikers were Mrs. Herbert Jones and Mrs. Ella Sandif. They were charged with illicitly conduct. A jury trial was demanded by Attorney Bentall. NEW YORK AMSTERDAM NEWS. WEDNESDAY. NOV. 3. 1926 LACK OF EVIDENCE FREES MAN OF ASSAULT CHARGE Fred Omon, Manager of St. Nicholas Avenue Confectionery Store, Pleads Self-Defense Denies He Shot Sanford After having been charged with felonious assault and violation of the Sullivan Law, Fred Omon, of 19r St. Nicholas avenue, was freed by Justice Simpson for lack of evidence to convict him. Omon's plea had been one of self-defense.\nOn Oct. 5 Omon, who is the manager of a confectionery store at the above address, was accused of shooting Harry Sanford of 39 West 128th street in the abdomen. He was arrested by Patrolman Callahan of the 16th precinct when the wounded man pointed to Omon, saying: "He shot me!" Omon denied the charge. Sanford entered the confectionery store. it is said, and accosted a woman who resented his attentions. Omon interfered and urged Sanford to leave. Sanford, however, used vile language and swore that he would get even, it was alleged. Omon, fearing that Sanford might harm the woman, stayed around after his working hours. When he left the store, he says, he was stopped by Sanford. An argument ensued and Sanford attempted to draw a gun from his pocket. Omon gripped his hand and the gun went off, striking Sanford in the abdomen. He fell to the sidewalk, accusing Omon of shooting him. Sanford was removed to the Harlem Hospital, where he refused to make any complaint against Omoni from the hospital two weeks later. Sanford did not appear against Omon when the case was brought before Judge Simpson. He had given the authorities an address at which place he had never lived. Judge Simpson declared that the evidence brought forward proved that Omon did not have a resolver in his possession, if a shot was fired. It was from Sanford's gunman Omon who was protecting itself from Sanford's attack. He, therefore, dismissed Omon, with the declaration that he was not responsible for the shooting. Man Held on Serious Charge; Case Put Off Lester Lee, 22, 240 W. 149th street, was held in $1,000 bail when arraigned before Magistrate Simpson in Washington Heights Court, Monday, charged with a serious offense. The complainant was Special Officer Mossapp of the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Children. Lee is charged with having committed the serious offense on Sept. 11, when he visited the apartment occupied by the family of Theresa Mitchell, N. of 101 W. 131st street. Lee gained the charge. The case was put over to Nov. 3, when Lee will have an opportunity to present his side of the case. HAS SPENT OVER HALF CENTURY IN JAIL FOND DU LAC. Wis. Nov. 1.—Old Bill Maxwell, white, has rounded out his fifty-fourth year at the Stae prison at Waupun. He is 80 years old and is spending his last days in the infirmary, awaiting death. Maxwell is a man of mystery and never has spoken unless spoken to. More than half a century ago he killed a man in a quarrel about a woman, and a sheriff saved him from being lynched by a crowd that had strung him to a tree. Since then he has refused to ask for a pardon and has expressed a wish he might die in prison. He has not seen the outside world for more than half a century, never has seen a prison ball game or a movie and never has attended chapel. MEXICO PLACES BAN ON NEGRO IMMIGRANTS MEXICO CITY.

Resignation Foreshadows South African'Secession CAPE TOWN, Oct. 21.—A political sensation has been caused by the resignation of Dan Goetzee as Kimberley chairman of the Nationalists, the party of Premier Hertzog. Goetzee, who says his move is made "on the eve of the greatest political crisis South Africa has ever seen," is joining the South African party, led by Gen. J. O. Smuts, former Premier. Goetzee gives as the reason for his resignation a desire to assist in "preventing the disruption" of the South African Union and to help create a better understanding between the English and Dutch races here. Kimberley Hertzog's opponents intimate that the Nationalist Party is quietly working toward secession of South Africa from the British Empire. The Department of Agriculture announced October 25 that it had received from Senner and Bean, members of the New Orleans Cotton Exchange, the following telegram: "Many cotton planters are reporting that Negro tenant farmers are refusing to pick any more of their own cotton crop raised on shares own, group raised on shares own, group raised on shares no profit at present prices and are moving off the plantations in search of work which will pay them a daily wage in cash." Marital Mixup Has Court Echo Walter Ferguson Charged With Threatening Life of Thos. Steele Because, it is alleged, he threatened Thomas Steele, 32 West 132d street, with a revolver, Walter Ferguson, 62 W. 118th street, arrested and held for the Court of Special Sessions. There are two counts against him, violation of the Sullivan Law and attempted assault. Testimony was brought out to the effect that Steele's wife left him last Summer and moved to Ferguson's home, taking with her a revolver. Steele, it appears, then applied for a separation from her and was on his way to the 113th street address to have her sign some papers when he met Ferguson on Lenox avenue, near 115th street. Ferguson, he says, drew a revolver and presses it. It grabs his stomach and says, "If you say one more I'll kill you." The shout of a man across the street caused Ferguson to pocket the revolver and walk away. Steele called a policeman, who went with him to Ferguson's home. Ferguson denied that he had a revolver, but search of the house disclosed one hidden under a mattress in one of the bedrooms. LYNCHERS OF WHITE "CRACKER" INDICTED (Preston News Service.)

White Man Caught in "Policy" Net Also to Be Charged With Violation of Volstead Act Another raid against the sale of policy slips was perpetrated Sunday when A. Mungin, white, 36, of 960 West 127th street, was arrested charged with the possession of several policy slips. He is being held on $1,000 bail for the Court of Special Sessions. Detective Hickson, of the Sixth Division, made the arrest. He says that he was sent to the West 127th street address in response to a complaint from neighbors that a number of men in the apartment were using loud and boisterous language. On entering he said that he found Mungin and eight other men engaged in a game of craps. They were talking so loudly that they could be heard on the street below. The detective placed the entire group under arrest, charged with disorderly conduct. He searched the apartment and found a number of policy slips marked for the early Monday morning play. These he produced in court. In his search of the apartment, the officer claims that he found a still, capable of making ten gallons of alcohol, filled with mash. He said that the smell of the mixture could be detected throughout the building. This also was confiscated. In addition to the still, Detective Hickson said that he found a large quantity of bottled liquor in the apartment. Mungin and the eight men were fined $2 each for disorderly conduct. In addition, Mungin was held on the charge of possessing policy slips. It is said that he will later be turned over to the Federal authorities to be tried for the possession of alcohol in violation of the Volstead act. HELD ON CHARGE OF ATTEMPTED BRIBERY.

Affairs in 19th A.D. THERE HAS BEEN SO MUCH SMOKE raised in the Twenty-first Assembly District over the leadership of Robert S. Conklin and his Negro associates, that little or no attention has been paid to affairs in the Nineteenth Assembly District, under the executive leadership of David B. Costuma, where in the face of an ever-increasing Negro vote the district has repeatedly failed to elect a Negro to office since Dr. Charles Roberts was sent to the Board of Aldermen several years ago. LAST YEAR when William McGruder, a Negro Republican, was defeated for the Board of Aldermen and Abraham Grenthal, a white Republican, was reelected to the Assembly from the Nineteenth District, we pointed out then that something was wrong. This year the Nineteenth advanced the candidacy of Myles Paige for the State Senate and in yesterday's election, as was anticipated, he was defeated. It now would appear that Paige's presence on the ticket was only for the purpose of again returning Grenthal to the Assembly and making the Negroes in the district believe that in Paige they had representation on the district's ticket. IF GRENTHAL, who has already served several terms in the Assembly, had been nominated for the State Senate and Paige given the Assembly nomination, Negro voters would have had representation on the ticket with at least an even chance of putting over their candidate.

Loram, of Pretoria, Sees Many Parallels Between Interracial Condition in South and His Own Country ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 1—Dr. C. T. Loram, of Pretoria, South Africa, British Commissioner for Native Affairs in the South African Union, was here last week studying the work of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, seeking all the light possible upon the problems of racial adjustment with which he has to deal in his native country. As official mediator between the British Government and the millions of South African natives, and also as the recognized leader of the most liberal British sentiment in relation to the interracial problem, Dr. Loram easily ranks as one of the most important and useful personages in the South African Union. BOOK REVIEW Dr. Carter Woodson's New Book For some time he has been planning to come to America to observe interracial conditions here, and particularly to study the interracial movement, which attracted his attention several years ago. To a representative of the Interracial Commission Dr. Loram said: "There appear to be many parallels between interracial conditions in America and those in South Africa, and we of the latter country find much to help us in your efforts in that field. Your interracial movement especially has been a great inspiration to us, in that it illustrates the fact that good-will and cooperation, rather than antagonism and violence, are the only effective methods of interracial adjustment. "We have been watching the movement with the greatest interest and have already made considerable progress in reorganizing our work for the natives in a similar way, having set up interracial councils in 14 of the principal South African centers." Dr. Loram expressed himself as greatly surprised and pleased with the progress of the Negro in this country, particularly along educational lines. Conditions, he said, were very much more encouraging than he expected to final. On this point he said: "The remarkable advance that the American Negroes have made in education and economic competence is very inspiring to those of us in South Africa who believe in the possibilities of the natives and in giving them opportunity for development, rather than in the too common attitude of cynicism and repression." The interracial councils, which Dr. Loram has organized and of which he is the recognized leader and spokesman, hold periodical meetings, discuss conditions frankly and seek to affect public sentiment and legislation in the interest of justice and opportunity for the natives. They have the support and co-operation of the most liberal European sentiment in South Africa and have been doing effective work. Dr. Carter G Woodson's latest book is "The Mind of the Negro as Reflected in Letters During the Crisis, 1800-1560." This copious collection of letters written by Negroes makes an interesting contribution to the record of the sociologic and psychological features of that period. More than two hundred individuals are represented, several of them by more than one letter. Dr. Woodson has classified them in four groups, namely: letters written to the American Colonization Society, which organized and administered the movement to send free Negroes to Liberia, there to form a self-governing colony; those to anti-slavery workers and agencies; a large number chiefly personal and private; a small group dealing with miscellaneous matters. In addition, the editor quotes in his introduction letters from several Negroes of some achievement, who were well known prior to the period which limits the selections in the body of the volume. Among the Negroes whose letters are quoted with reference to the colonization scheme is John B. Russworm, who was the first black man to receive a college degree in the United States. He was graduated from Bowdoin College and some time later, in the early part of the nineteenth century, joined the colony in Liberia, where he played an important part. Benjamin Banneker, the noted Negro mathematician and astronomer of the eighteenth century, is also mentioned in the introduction.

PORTSMOUTH, VA., Nov. 1.—Members of the Lee Ward Civic League are strongly importing the City Council to pass a law forbidding Negroes to move into white neighborhoods. After a heated and lively discussion last Wednesday night in the Council meeting over the need in Portsmouth of a segregation law and legal means of enforcing it, the City Manager is reported to have assured the complainants that he would like a little time to look into the matter and see if many of the things complained of could not be satisfactorily adjusted. It was brought out that meeting during the heated discussions that there existed a row of old dilapidated frame houses in the immediate vicinity of the Robert E. Lee School. These old shacks could not be rented to white people and the owners had turned them over to Negro tenants. One of the speakers declared that the old shacks constituted nothing less than an eyesore. It was suggested by some speakers that legal means should be employed to have the owners raze the buildings. This would keep the Negroes out of the community. Councilman Dunford declared that Portsmouth was the only city of its size in the country which did not have a law to keep colored people from moving into white residential districts. City Attorney Barclay respond- LETTERS Turnover Among Negro Workers in Chicago WASHINGTON.—Interesting data submitted to the Department of Labor through its Negro Commissioner of Conciliation in the Chicago district indicates that the turnover of Negro labor in Chicago industries varies from 30 to 35 per cent through the year. This fact flourishes in the face of uniform prosperity and continuous employment throughout the year, and is commented upon by one employment manager of a firm employing 100 colored workers, skilled and unskilled, in the following language: "We have employed colored help for 20 years and know them well. The papers and leaders of colored people should strive to get them to realize that they can work the full-time week without injuring their health." Nestling in the hills of Mason County, W. Va., near the town of Lakin and about midway between the thriving cities of Parkersburg and Huntington, is the State Hospital for Colored Insane, said to be the first and only hospital in the United States established and equipped by a State for the treatment and care of insane colored people. The building, of brick construction, is located on a beautiful farm of nine hundred acres, which has been under the direct supervision of the State Agricultural Experiment Station during the past summer. Although the institution was not opened until last February, there are now 205 patients under treatment. It is filled to capacity and there are 50 colored persons in the town of Lakin who should be at the hospital, but cannot be Study of Negro Ids Annual Meeting study of Negro Life and His- eeting on Thursday and Fri- baltimore, Md. history.

Five are "foremen in charge," while others hold responsible positions. The plant is thoroughly up-to-date, with modern machinery and safety devices. The morale of the employment force is probably favorably comparable with that of any typical plant in the Chicago district, or elsewhere. Many of the colored workers have service records of 20 and 25 years at this plant, while a smaller group has averaged 10 years per employee. As to the remainder, however, the turnover question is of such ever present importance that both employer and workers are endeavoring to reduce the percentage. Probable Causes. When Chicago shitted from a ning Segregation ed that an effort some years ago to evolve a workable segregation law operating on the race proportion in each block was halted by the difficulties involved. He said that about that time attempts to impose segregation laws in other cities had been halted by the courts. The ordinances had been declared unconstitutional. Councilman Mayo then sprang to his feet and declared that the validity of such an ordinance in Portsmouth might not be attacked by the Portsmouth Negroes. Councilman White stated that the question had been studied carefully and exhaustively by former City Manager Jerry, who reached the conclusion that no valid law could be passed for the segregation of the races. To this Mrs. Woodard, president of the Robert E. Lee School League, took exceptions, declaring that it is done in practically all of the cities of the North. Mr. White then asked her to name some of the Northern cities in which the law was operating. Mrs. Woodard's face flushed and she stammered. At this point City Manager Hanrahan suggested that he might be able to do something, and the matter was referred to him. You aren't really an important citizen unless you can get out of anything by claiming that you were uninquoted. — Washugron Post. Keeping Fit By E. Elliott Rawlins, M.D. IT SHOULD be the aim of the Negroes in the large cities of the United States to stamp out diphtheria as a prevalent disease among their group. It is a preventable contagion, and the methods to bring about such prevention are now at hand. transferred on account of inadequate facilities. The appointment as superintendent of Dr. C. C. Barnett, colored, of Huntington, by Governor Gore appears to meet the general approval of the medical fraternity, who will closely watch this interesting experiment, the success of which will doubtless lead to the establishment of similar institutions in other southern States where little or no provision is made for the treatment of insane colored persons. Dr. Barnett, who for the past 25 years has practiced medicine at Huntington, W. Va., and who for the past 14 years has conducted the Barnett Hospital in that city, received his medical degree at Howard University. Englishman—How is your prohibition working out? American—Great!

During the War large bloos of Negro labor filled the industrial gap. The shift to peace, though a blessing, was swift and concerting, and the Negro migrants along with the northern groups of both employers and workers were unprepared for the industrial evolution, from employment to non-employment. The Negro had to readapt himself, first to a slump in employment and then to the normalcy which has now reached its greatest height since the war. Frequent sufferers in the fierce competition in employment, the Negro laborers, more than any others, have keenly felt the influences which are always the direct or the indirect causes of "turnover." The adjustment moves slowly and requires sympathy and tolerance on the part of employer as well as employee. "Turnover" is expensive to both. It lowers efficiency and demoralizes output. It can be removed only by the joint efforts of each industrial factor, and their willingness to "give and take," as it were.

We all already have too much heart disease. Heart disease is prevalent; its death rate and incapacity for work is now more than that of tuberculosis and diphtheria. rheumatism and syphilis are the diseases that are producing heart failure and heart inefficiency. The majority of Negroes are working in occupations of stress and strain. Exposures to cold physical overwork, insatiable surroundings, accompany these occupations, which result finally in rheumatic diseases. The result of most cases of rheumatism is heart disease. Rheumatism heart is common to Negroes. The economic status of Negroes makes them prone to rheumatism with its accompanying heart disease. This being so it is necessary to prevent among the Nestro group any other disease which may have a predilection to cause further heart degeneration. Diphtheria is a disease "par excellence," which in 60 per cent of cases causes heart irregularities. Medical science has developed a method to prevent diphtheria—it is called the Schick test. This test gives a means of detecting susceptibility to diphtheria: when such susceptibility is ascertained the patient is given an antitoxin mixture. The test is finding a widespread application, and is resulting in a marked reduction in the mortality and heart incapacity in the city where its application is used most. Its method of administration is safe. The Health Department of New York City is advising parents to give their children the benefit of this Schick test. I believe it should be compulsory, such as smallpox vaccination. In Harlem with its progressive Negroes, and an efficient Board of Health, the slogan must be "no diphtheria by 1928." Such an accomplishment is possible. As a group we need to conserve our heart capacity, already overburdened by economic and social pressure. Diphtheria can be avoided now and a concerted program for its eradication should be pushed by those factors among our group which have the means of reaching and educating the people. MUSIC Felix F.
